As for Kyle and the Weasley brothers... Madam Pomfrey finally let them in using their relationship status.
"Don't speak too loudly, and don't disturb others..." She warned: "If you break any of these rules, don't even think about coming to the school hospital again."
"Of course." Fred smiled, "We are just here to visit our brother. We promise not to speak too loudly."
"That's better." Pomfrey pointed to a bed against the wall on the left. "Weasley is there."
"Thank you."
The three of them followed the direction of Madam Pomfrey's finger and came to the bed. After pulling aside the curtain, they saw Ron.
There are only two people living in the entire school hospital.
The bed next to him also had a curtain, so I guess it must be Malfoy.
After all, there were only two of them in the entire school hospital, and every other place was empty.
I don't know if it was intentional or accidental, but Ron and Malfoy were sitting next to each other.
If there wasn't this curtain blocking them, they probably wouldn't be as quiet as they are now.
Besides Ron, Harry and Hermione were also behind the curtain.
It's just that the atmosphere here is a bit strange.
Hermione and Harry both lowered their heads, not knowing what they were thinking. Instead, it was Ron, who was lying on the hospital bed with a bandage on his head, who was comforting them.
"It doesn't matter. It's just a curse that will grow horns... It's nothing."
"Malfoy is in a much worse situation than me. He's been vomiting slugs all morning...Haha, this is the first time I've performed a spell so smoothly. If it were an exam, I feel like I would definitely get an 'O'."
"What a pity! Hogwarts doesn't have a Curses class..." Fred pulled aside the curtain and walked in.
George followed him, "You missed your only chance to get an "O."
"Fred, George..." Ron was a little surprised, "Why are you here?"
"You're going too far." Fred said dissatisfiedly, "My dear brother is in the school hospital, so of course we have to come and visit him."
"Yes, after hearing about this, we immediately returned from Hogsmeade..."
"Don't you think we can't come visit you?"
"No..." Ron quickly explained: "That's not what I meant... Sorry."
"Wait, Hogsmeade?"
At this time, Harry beside him suddenly raised his head and said, "Didn't you feel unwell and told Wood that you were going to the school hospital? I thought you had been discharged from the hospital and returned to the dormitory to rest!"
"Uh..." Fred and George's expressions froze.
They actually forgot about this.
“Don’t worry about the details.”
Fred said quickly, "We went to Hogsmeade after we came out of the hospital wing."
"Yes."
George also took out the big bag of candy, "They are all Honeydukes' most popular products. We bought them especially for Ron."
"For me?" Ron was even more surprised.
But he looked at the big bag of exquisite candies, thought for a moment and shook his head, "I...I don't need it. You can keep it for yourselves."
As he spoke, his throat moved slightly.
He saw that there were Buttercup mints in it, which were his favorite.
But how should I put it...Since last year, the things Fred and George gave him were rarely normal, and they all had some side effects, so Ron didn't dare to accept them.
Fred seemed to see through his thoughts and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem this time, we promise."
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Kyle. He can testify for us."
Kyle nodded.
These candies were Ron's reward for having the courage to raise his wand to Slytherin, so there was naturally nothing else in them.
But even if there is, it doesn’t matter... Ron has been cheated more than once or twice, so this time won’t be a big deal!
Harry next to him frowned, as if he wanted to say something.
But George spoke before him, "By the way, Harry, I heard you were handing out autographed photos. How come Fred and I didn't get any?"
"I am not, and I haven't!"
Harry was so angry that he immediately forgot about their leave.
"These are all rumors spread by Lockhart. I have never sent out any autographed photos!"
"Ah, that's a pity," said Fred, winking and laughing.
I have to say that Fred and George are really good at livening up the atmosphere.
After they came here, the originally gloomy atmosphere was quickly swept away.
Even Hermione, who was in mixed feelings, was attracted by the anti-monster glasses they took out.
It was bought from Davis-Bans's store, a glass bead about the same size as the Golden Snitch, used to find those howling banshees disguised as ordinary people.
Hermione had little resistance to this newfangled magical item.
Kyle also took out the automatic inkjet feather pen he had prepared in advance.
He originally wanted to give this thing to Hermione as a Christmas gift, but it was just the right time to give it to her now.
And Ron, he also has a waterproof and moisture-proof badge like Harry's.
……
The few of them didn't stay in the school hospital for too long, perhaps because there was always laughter coming from behind the curtain, and they were reported.
"Malfoy told me that you disturbed his rest."
Madam Pomfrey said in a deep voice: "So I must ask all of you to leave!"
"Wait...his voice is louder!"
Ron said dissatisfiedly: "Since I lay here, Pansy Parkinson's sarcastic voice has never stopped."
"So they'll have to leave soon."
Madam Pomfrey said sternly, "In fact, visiting hours are over. If you still want to see him, get out now!"
There was no choice. Madam Pomfrey had said so, so they could only say goodbye to Ron and leave the school hospital.
When they arrived at the Pendulum Courtyard, they happened to meet Lucius Malfoy who had just come out of the castle.
But his face didn't look very good, and he seemed to be still angry.
Lucius noticed them too...
"Oh…Weasley."
He stopped, looked at Fred and George, and said in a long tone: "Your family is indeed a little smart, but believe me, "Weasley" will not always be so lucky."
After this incident, coupled with the conflict in Flourish and Blotts, Lucius didn't even bother to pretend. He looked at Fred and George with malice in his eyes.
"Thank you for your reminder..."
Fred and George also stopped smiling.
"But you should take care of your own affairs first."
"I never knew that Malfoy's tutoring was so... rudimentary?"
“What an eye-opener!”
Lucius subconsciously clenched his cane.
In order to prevent him from suddenly attacking Fred and George without any moral integrity, Kyle also became nervous and put his hand on the wand without making a sound.
But fortunately, Lucius was not overwhelmed by anger. He knew that this was Hogwarts, and Dumbledore was nearby... Maybe he was looking at them.
Under such circumstances, he naturally didn't dare to do anything out of line.
"Hmph... let's wait and see!"
After saying these harsh words, Lucius left without looking back.
……
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 283 Come on, Tom, let’s hurt each other
After meeting Lucius in the courtyard, the mood of several people was more or less affected. After returning to the castle in silence, they each went back to the common room.
The next day, Ron was still not discharged from the hospital.
But I heard from the Slytherin people that Malfoy seemed to have been taken away by his father and went to St. Mungo's.
Kyle didn't care either.
He has more important things to do today.
After breakfast, Fred and George were dragged by Wood to Quidditch training.
Kyle came to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor and spent the whole morning transferring all the Moon Beasts and some plants there into his own box.
However, those plants with slow growth cycles, such as poisonous tentacles, did not move.
The seeds of these plants were the compensation given by the Ministry of Magic last year. Only a year has passed so they are still in the budding stage. The special properties of the Room of Requirement allow them to grow better.
There will be plenty of time in the future, no need to rush now...
After transferring the last Moon Beast, Kyle returned to the hut at the entrance of the box.
But he didn't leave, instead he took out a box from under the bed.
After seeing Lucius Malfoy yesterday, Kyle remembered that he hadn't opened the diary since Fawkes came last time.
I don't know what happened to Riddle...
Kyle took out the dragon's blood he bought from Diagon Alley, poured it into an empty ink bottle, and then added some water.
