By the time Kyle finished dancing for a short while, the moon-crazed beasts had gradually accepted him and came out of the cave one after another.
After Kyle fed them some more herbal leaves, he began to get closer to them.
Maybe because they often come into contact with Hagrid, the Moon Beasts in the Forbidden Forest have almost no vigilance. After Kyle promised to give them Dictamni leaves to keep them full, these five little foodies couldn't help but come over.
Originally, Kyle only wanted to pick two to take away, but when he looked at their big watery eyes, he felt that none of them would be suitable, so he just took them all away.
They are just some herbal leaves, he can afford to grow them.
The whole process went very smoothly. With his reminder, the Moon-crazy Beasts stopped barking and quietly followed him out of the forbidden forest.
It was just a little troublesome getting them back to the Room of Requirement.
Because the invisibility cloak was too small to cover only one moon beast at a time, Kyle had to bring them in five times through the secret passage behind the tapestry.
By the time the last Moon Beast was sent to the Room of Requests, it was already early morning.
Kyle's calves were shaking and he sat down on the ground, gasping for breath. It took him a long time to recover.
But it's all worth it. With these five Moon Crazy Beasts, the problem of plant fertilizer has been completely solved.
Kyle was very satisfied with the condition of the five little guys. Although they seemed a little scared, that was normal. It was fine as long as they didn't clamor to go back.
After they live here for a while longer, they will probably get used to it.
……
After coming out of the Room of Requirement, Kyle went to the kitchen to pack some food and took it to Hagrid's hut.
Hagrid's cold hasn't healed yet, and he looks weak.
"I brought you some scones and sausages." Kyle put the items in his hands on a shelf.
"Thank you, Kyle."
Hagrid picked up the copper kettle and tried to pour Kyle a glass of water, but ended up spilling half of it outside, which made him a little frustrated.
"I've never had a cold."
Hagrid handed the water to Kyle and said, "Yesterday, Poppy gave me a bucket of potion to drink. It tasted terrible."
"I can't help it. That's what happens when you're sick." Kyle took a sip of water and said, "How do you feel? Are you feeling better?"
"Worse." Hagrid shook his head.
Yesterday he just felt a little dizzy, but after drinking the medicine, his whole body began to feel uncomfortable and he had no energy to do anything.
This feeling made Hagrid very uncomfortable.
Kyle looked at him and asked in confusion, "Didn't Madam Pomfrey give you a drink of stimulant?"
The refresher is the school hospital's main cold medicine. It's what Cedric and Ryan drank when they caught a cold some time ago.
Although white smoke will come out of his ears, he will not appear as weak as Hagrid.
After all, students still have to attend classes, and they can't be half-energized.
"Refresher? No." Hagrid thought for a moment and said, "Poppy said that was not suitable for me. He gave me another potion to drink. I don't know what it is."
Kyle was stunned.
That's true. Given Hagrid's size, ordinary tonics or cold medicines would have no effect on him.
Thinking of this, Kyle suddenly remembered something and looked at Hagrid again.
The more he looked at this drunken state, the more familiar it seemed to him.
About a year ago, an Erumpent in Newt's box also caught a cold. After Newt gave it a special potion, the big guy seemed to be in this state.
This……
Kyle pursed his lips, he felt like he had discovered something incredible.
……
The train arrived as scheduled and arrived at Hogwarts before the dinner.
The whole castle became lively again.
When Fred and George returned to the castle, they found Kyle immediately.
"Why didn't you tell us you weren't coming home for the holidays!"
Fred gritted his teeth and said, "Mom didn't see you, so she took out all her anger on us!"
"She thought we were bullying you." George said angrily, "She didn't show us a good face during the whole vacation."
"Do you know how we've been spending the past two weeks?"
Fred felt more and more aggrieved as he spoke. "On Christmas Day, even Ron could eat delicious turkey and sausages, but George and I could only eat those dry sandwiches!"
"This is all because of you!"
The two men had stern faces and pushed Kyle into a corner viciously, as if to say, "Don't even think about leaving until you explain yourself clearly."
"I told you about it, the day before you left school." Kyle raised his hands above his head and explained, "You were studying a suit of armor in the corridor on the fifth floor."
"The day before leaving school?"
"Fifth floor?"
The expressions of Fred and George suddenly became a little guilty.
They remembered that they had indeed been to the fifth floor before leaving school and had seen Kyle there.
But at that time, they had just found the password clue of the Marauder's Map behind the armor, and didn't pay any attention to what Kyle said at that time.
The two looked at each other and seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding.
"It's still your fault. Why didn't you write a letter?"
"We've been eating sandwiches for two weeks, we can't just let this go!"

Chapter 80 The little mouth is covered with honey
Faced with the threat from two sophomores, the weak Kyle had no choice but to verbally sign a series of unequal treaties in order to avoid being bullied at school.
"Mark your words, Kyle."
Fred reminded, "You need to provide technical support for our Weasley Jokes product."
"And a place." George added: "You have to provide us with a safe place to store them during the holidays and make sure they won't be discovered by Mom."
"Of course, I'm happy to." Kyle smiled and said, "I'll help you research those products. And don't worry about the location... How about my room? If I put it there, Mrs. Weasley will definitely not find it."
"very good."
Fred and George nodded in satisfaction and let Kyle go.
"If you dare to deceive us..." Fred warned viciously before leaving: "The consequences will be serious!"
After saying that, they both raised their thumbs at the same time and gestured at their necks.
After they left, Kyle walked to the Hufflepuff table leisurely as if nothing had happened.
"How was your vacation?"
"Not bad." Kyle glanced at Cedric and said, "No need to get up early, no need to do homework, all I do every day is read books, plant grass, pet small animals, etc. This is exactly the life I've always dreamed of."
Cedric looked envious.
"I wouldn't have gone back if I had known." He sighed, "My dad originally said he would take me to France for a vacation this holiday, but he's too busy. He's almost always working overtime, and I'm at home for less than five hours a day. I don't have time at all."
Cedric's words surprised Kyle.
That shouldn't be the case. Haven't Chris and Newt already sent back the smuggled magical creatures? Why is Mr. Diggory still so busy?
And he hasn't heard of anything special happening recently. Everything is calm and peaceful.
Even Mr. Weasley and Lucius's quarrel at the Ministry of Magic made the front page of the Daily Prophet.
Under normal circumstances, it would be great if such trivial matters could occupy a corner.
It can be seen that there is really nothing to report in the magic world recently, and there is a feeling that the years are peaceful and quiet.
In this case, unless there is a special emergency, such as a magical creature injuring someone, Mr. Diggory will have at least five days of vacation.
But if this really happened, there is no way the Daily Prophet would not make any noise at all.
Cedric seemed to have noticed Kyle's confusion. He looked around and made sure no one was paying attention to this place before he whispered, "It's because of the Winged Demon... My father has been looking for it."
"The Winged Demon..." Kyle frowned and lowered his voice, "Didn't that thing leave here?"
"No, the Ministry is lying."
Cedric said: "My dad had a few drinks on Christmas Day and seemed to think I was his colleague, so I took the opportunity to ask him a lot of questions.
He said the Ministry had found no trace of the Winged Demon at all."
Kyle shook his head and said, "But that's not what Newt said."
If it was someone else, he might not believe it, but Newt would never lie, especially when it comes to things related to magical creatures.
Unless it concerns the safety of the wizarding world, not to mention Fudge, even Dumbledore would not be able to... Well, that's not necessarily true.
However, given Dumbledore's character, he would most likely not ask Newt for this just for a winged demon.
Unless Fudge is his biological son.
"I asked that, too," Cedric said. "My dad said that Mr. Scamander's original words were, 'We didn't find the Winged Demon, it must have gone into hiding.'"
But the photo that the Ministry of Magic provided to the Daily Prophet only contained the first half of the sentence; they left out the second half."
"Huh?" Kyle raised an eyebrow. "In order not to cause panic?"
"Yes, in order to avoid panic." Cedric spread his hands and said, "They even found a reason to dismiss Mr. Chris and Mr. Scamander who had always been against this."
Kyle touched his chin, and his previous doubts were resolved.
No wonder he always felt that something was wrong with Chris's business trip this time. So this was the problem.
It's just transporting some magical creatures, why would Chris and Newt need to go together?
