Chapter 168 A Thousand Parchments

Since joining the Quidditch team, Kyle has become busy.

He now has to attend classes and read books in the library during the day, and go to the restricted book area at night to copy books. The time he finally squeezed out was all spent on homework.

The second-year homework was much more than last year. The professors seemed to have discussed it. Starting from last week, the length requirement of their homework changed from inches to feet.

In addition, the Quidditch training three nights a week also took up a lot of his time.

Harris was very strict in this regard. Each training session took at least three hours and he could not come back until curfew.

However, after several training sessions, Kyle and his teammates cooperated more and more tacitly.

Just today, he and Harris could use the two-way attack tactics skillfully.

This is a classic Quidditch tactic invented by the Wimbledon Wasps, which is a modified version of the eagle head attack formation.

Two chasers fly to the middle goal post at the same time and pass the ball frequently. After reaching the scoring area, they quickly separate to both sides to disrupt the goalkeeper's judgment.

After the training match, Kyle and Harris scored a total of 60 goals. The Hufflepuff goalkeeper was almost doubting his life. He was carried back to the dormitory by others with a dull look in his eyes.

"Cheer up, Ferro, you are already one of the best goalkeepers in the school. Think about it, if you can't catch the ball, others certainly can't catch it either!"

Harris lifted Ferro's right leg and said with a flushed face: "This year's Quidditch Cup will be engraved with our names again, I promise!

"Haha... Why hasn't November arrived yet? I can't wait to start the game.

The group returned to the castle in a mighty manner, and Kyle followed them with his flying broom.

When they passed the door of the auditorium, they happened to meet Fred and George coming down from upstairs in the castle.

The pockets of the two were bulging, as if they were full of things.

After Harris and the others walked away, Cedric raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice: "Curfew is coming soon, are you going out for a night out?"

"No, we just came back from Hogsmeade and are going to the kitchen to get some midnight snacks." George patted his bulging pockets and smiled: "Zonko's latest product, bought before they closed."

"You know, for our lovely brother." Fred blinked and handed a leather bag to Kyle.

"This is what you want."

"Thank you." Kyle reached out and took it.

Fred glanced at him and asked excitedly: "So, do you have any new ideas for making money recently? Tell us quickly."

"What?" Kyle didn't quite understand what Fred meant.

He was so busy these days that he didn't even go to the flower garden. How could he have time to study any new ideas for making money?

"Stop pretending. What secrets can you keep from us?" George said dissatisfiedly, "If you don't have new ideas, why did you buy so much parchment?"

"Don't say it's for making maps. It's been almost a month since the map was sold."

Fred put his arm around Kyle's shoulders and said with an expression that said, "I'm very smart, don't try to fool me." "If you don't have new ideas, how could you buy a thousand sheets of parchment?"

"A thousand sheets? Wenrenju's stock is almost insufficient."

"Insufficient stock?"

Kyle opened his deformed lizard skin bag and soon saw piles of parchment inside, but he didn't know exactly how many sheets there were.

"Forget it, I'm not in a hurry to use it, so it doesn't matter if it's less."

"It's almost not enough." Fred said with a smile: "There are 1,063 sheets in it, and the extra ones are extra."

"That's all. We helped Wenrenju to close 20 minutes earlier today."

"Okay, after talking so much, you should tell us what the plan is."

Fred touched his chin and guessed to himself: "As for the parchment, it can't be a map of the secret passage... or are you going to provide the answers to the homework for a fee?"

"Neither!"

Kyle shook his head and said: "I really just bought it for my own use."

"Don't joke, this is a thousand sheets of parchment. How can I use so much just for homework.

Cedric, do you need a thousand sheets of parchment in a semester?"

Cedric shook his head immediately.

To be honest, a thousand sheets of parchment are enough for him to use for seven years.

"I know it's hard for you to believe, but this is the truth."

Kyle thought for a moment and said, "I've been copying some things recently and need a lot of parchment, that's all."

Seeing Kyle's serious look, Fred and George were no longer as persistent as they were at the beginning.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course." Kyle shrugged and said, "And I can promise that if I lie to you, Cedric will start to lose his hair this year."

"Hey, what does this have to do with me!"

Cedric glared at Kyle in dissatisfaction.

"Don't be so stingy." Kyle said nonchalantly, "Don't you believe me?"

"It's not the same thing, okay!" Cedric said helplessly.

His father, Mr. Diggory, had hair problems, and he didn't want to become like that now.

Kyle said so, and Fred and George also dispelled the last bit of doubt in their hearts.

Yes, Kyle had no reason to lie to them.

Both of them looked a little disappointed, turned around dejectedly, and walked towards the Gryffindor Tower.

Along the way, they were all excitedly guessing Kyle's new plan, and even prepared to do a big job.

In the end, they found that there was no so-called plan at all, and it was all their self-conceit.

This sense of disparity made the two of them a little unacceptable.

"You went to the wrong place." Cedric reminded: "You should go downstairs to the kitchen."

"Thank you, but we suddenly don't feel so hungry now."

"And I don't want to eat anything."

...

After the twins left, Cedric scratched his hair and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with them."

Kyle shook his head, "Who knows, maybe puberty has arrived."

"What period?"

"Nothing, curfew is coming soon, let's go back soon."

"Okay."

Late at night, after Kyle and his roommates fell asleep, he got up quietly and left the dormitory, and came to the library as usual.

Kyle walked straight to the third bookshelf in the restricted area, opened the leather bag, took out the shorthand quill and a pile of parchment, and placed them on the nearest table.

"Fluorescent!"

Then Kyle lit his wand, took a carefully selected book, sat down and read it.
