"Harry Potter!"
"Did you see his face...that scar!"
Harry looked unaccustomed to such stares; he lowered his head and ate his breakfast quickly.
Kyle walked over to the Hufflepuff table.
Fred and George were here too, and they were talking to Cedric.
"Homework, Cedric, you have to save us."
Fred said pitifully, "I didn't expect there would be a Potions class on the first day of the new school year. If I can't hand in my homework on time..."
George shuddered and said, "Snape will kill us."
"I can lend you my homework," Cedric said, "but class is about to start. Are you sure it's too late to make up for it now?"
"It should be in time."
Fred nodded repeatedly and said, "Our second period is Potions, so we can finish it during Divination."
"Okay then." Cedric thought for a moment and said, "I'll get it for you after breakfast."
“Thank you so much!”
Fred and George looked at Cedric with gratitude.
"You saved our lives!"
Cedric just smiled slightly. He had saved many people since last night.
Kyle sat down next to the Weasley brothers and asked curiously, "Did you take Divination?"
"Divination and Care of Magical Creatures."
Fred said, "I must take the Divination class. Charlie told me that it's easy to get high scores in this class, and the class is also very relaxing."
"As long as you make yourself sound miserable when Professor Krillawney asks us, we can do whatever we like."
George said, "I suggest you take the Divination course next year. This course is a blessing for students."
“This is something that can indeed be considered.”
Kyle looked at the two of them, hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly said, "If possible, I suggest that you take another Ancient Magic Course."
"Why do you say that?"
Fred asked doubtfully, "It is said that this course is difficult."
"It should be said that it is very difficult." George frowned and said, "During the holidays, Percy spent most of his time watching this."
"Indeed it is."
Kyle nodded and said, "But haven't you always wanted to open a joke shop? Ancient magic runes are of great help to alchemy."
alchemy?
Fred and George looked at each other, and they kind of understood what Kyle meant.
Those joke products are also alchemical items. If that's the case, then ancient magic runes are indeed very useful to them.
"Kyle, why are you telling me such an important thing just now?" George said, scratching his hair.
Now that the course selection is over, if they want to take Ancient Magic Runes, they can only ask Professor McGonagall to apply for an extra course.
There are only three elective courses... This will undoubtedly take up a lot of time. If they really go to Professor McGonagall to apply, they will not be able to do what they like.
But opening a joke shop of their own has always been their dream. If ancient magic runes are really helpful to alchemy, then they definitely cannot give up.
The two of them were immediately entangled.
"How about we go talk to Professor McGonagall?"
After thinking for a moment, George asked tentatively, "Do you think she would agree if we change the Care of Magical Creatures class to Ancient Runes?"
……
Sorry, I just came back from outside last night and forgot to schedule the post.
Bang bang bang...Please forgive me!

Chapter 147: Lost Harry and a Bag of Cat Food
If it was just adding a course, Professor McGonagall would probably not refuse, but changing the course... To be honest, Kyle felt that the possibility was not high.
But looking at the hopeful looks on Fred and George's faces, he just shrugged and said nothing.
Let them try. If Professor McGonagall is in a good mood today, she might agree.
The first class of this year was still the Charms class. After leaving the hall, Kyle said goodbye to the Weasley brothers and Cedric, and went to the fourth floor of the castle alone.
When he reached the second floor, Kyle suddenly saw two freshmen wandering on the stairs.
Harry and Ron.
They kept wandering around the second floor, circling the two false staircases, in a panic.
Kyle watched for a while and couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing...exercise?"
Ron turned his head suddenly, and ran over with Harry in his hand as if he had seen a savior.
"We're going to the Transfiguration classroom, but we're lost." He asked breathlessly, "Can you tell us how to get there?"
"Come with me." Kyle said, "I just happen to be going to the fourth floor as well."
"Thank God!" Ron showed a relieved expression.
"Thank you, thank you." Harry looked at Kyle a little stiffly.
"It's nothing, just happened to be on the way."
Kyle led the two to the correct staircase and asked in confusion, "Didn't you buy the map of Hogwarts?"
Hearing this, Ron's face turned red all of a sudden, and he lowered his head and said nothing.
Harry also said a little embarrassedly: "Twenty Galleons is too expensive. I, we can't afford it."
Although there were piles of gold in his vault, he did not bring much with him to school this time. After deducting the money for buying his wand and books, he had exactly twenty or so Galleons left.
The school has just started and there is still a long way to go. Harry naturally doesn't want to spend all his money on buying maps.
"That's not what I'm talking about." Kyle led them around a corner and said, "There are two types of maps. In addition to the 20 Galleon version, there is also a 10 Sickle version... Why, didn't Fred and George tell you?"
Harry and Ron both froze.
After Kyle said this, Harry suddenly remembered that there was indeed a leaflet about the map posted on the door of the common room.
However, he and Ron subconsciously thought that it was the kind they saw on the train, and neither of them looked at it carefully.
Thinking of this, Harry's face suddenly wrinkled into a ball, and he felt extremely regretful.
If only he had looked more carefully, he could have afforded it for ten Sickles.
"We're here. The Transfiguration classroom is over there."
After reaching the fourth floor, Kyle pointed in a direction, then took something out of his pocket and stuffed it into Harry's hand.
"This is a greeting gift."
Harry looked down and found that he had two maps and a bag of... dried fish in his hand?
"What's this?" Ron asked.
"Looks like cat food," Harry said. "Does Kyle have a cat?"
Ron thought for a moment and said, "He does have one at home."
Harry looked up hastily and shouted, "Kyle, you gave us an extra bag of cat food!"
"I'll give it to you too!"
Kyle seemed to be in a hurry to go to class. He said without turning his head, "I have plenty of that stuff. Take it back and feed it to the owl."
As he spoke, he turned a corner and disappeared at the end of the corridor.
This……
Harry stood there in a daze, holding the bag of dried fish.
"Come on Harry, class is about to start."
Ron suddenly pulled him and said hurriedly, "That's Professor McGonagall's class. We'd better not be late."
"Okay, okay."
Harry came to his senses, put the dried fish in his pocket, and ran to the other side with Ron.
At this time, Kyle had already walked into the Charms classroom.
In the first lesson of the new school year, Professor Flitwick did not teach new content immediately, but instead took them to review the spells they had learned last year.
He spent half a class checking everyone's levitation spell and softening spell, and only returned to the platform made of books after he was sure that most people could cast these two spells skillfully.
"Today we are going to learn the universal counteracting spell, which can eliminate the effects of ordinary spells... Watch my movements, and be firm when waving the wand. Also, the voice must be clear... Stop the spell immediately!"
After Charms, Kyle took History of Magic.
In the afternoon, there are two consecutive potions classes taught by Snape.
Just like last year, Snape still didn't treat Kyle well.
"Who told you to whisper while brewing the potion?"
Snape stood next to Kyle and said gloomily, "If you don't learn, don't affect others. Hufflepuff will lose one point."
Then he looked at Kanna.
"The lionfish bone was handled very well. One point for Hufflepuff."
Kyle looked at Snape calmly.
He was already used to the professor's double standards, and compared to the previous situation where he started with five points, this year's result was pretty good.
