Chapter 80: Honey on the Little Mouth

Faced with the threat of two sophomores, the weak Kyle could only verbally sign a series of unequal treaties in order to avoid being bullied on campus.

"Mark your words, Kyle."

"You will need to provide technical support for our Weasley Joke product," Fred reminded.

"And space." George added: "You have to provide us with a safe place to store them during the holidays and make sure they are not discovered by mother."

"Of course, I'm happy to." Kyle smiled and said: "I will help you study those products. In addition, don't worry about the venue... How about my room? If I put it there, Mrs. Weasley will definitely find it. No."

"very good."

Fred and George nodded with satisfaction and let Kyle go.

"If you dare to deceive us..." Before leaving, Fred warned in a sinister manner: "The consequences will be serious!"

After saying that, the two of them stretched out a thumb at the same time and made signs on their necks.

After Kyle waited for them to leave, he walked to the Hufflepuff table as leisurely as a normal person.

"How was your vacation?"

"Not bad." Kyle glanced at Cedric and said, "You don't have to get up early, and you don't have to do homework. Every day you just read books, plant grass, play with small animals, etc. This is simply the life I dream of."

Cedric looked a little envious;

"If I had known it, I wouldn't have gone back." He sighed: "Originally, my father said he would take me to France this holiday, but he was too busy and worked overtime almost all the time. He didn't have enough time at home every day. Five hours, no time at all.”

Cedric's words surprised Kyle.

It shouldn’t be, haven’t those smuggled magical animals been sent back by Chris and Newt? Why is Mr. Diggory still so busy?

And he hasn't heard of anything special happening recently, everything is calm.

Even a quarrel between Mr. Weasley and Lucius at the Ministry of Magic made the front page of the Daily Prophet.

Normally, it would be great if such a trivial thing could occupy a corner.

It can be seen that there is really nothing to report in the magic world recently, and there is quite a feeling that the years are quiet.

In this case, unless there is some special emergency, such as a magical animal hurting someone, Mr. Diggory will have at least five days off.

But if such a thing really happens, there is no way that there will be no movement at all from the Daily Prophet.

Cedric seemed to have noticed Kyle's doubts. He looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and then whispered: "It's because of the Curling Wing Demon...my father has been looking for traces of it.

"The Winged Demon..." Kyle frowned and also lowered his voice: "Didn't that thing leave here already?"

"No, the Ministry of Magic is lying."

Cedric said: “My dad had been drinking a bit on Christmas Day and seemed to think I was a colleague of his, so I took the opportunity to ask him a lot of questions.

He said the Ministry of Magic had found no trace of the crook. "

Kyle shook his head and said, "But that's not what Newt said."

If it were anyone else, he might not believe it, but Newt would never lie, especially when it came to matters related to magical animals.

Unless it is related to the safety of the wizarding world, let alone Fudge, even Dumbledore is impossible...well, this is really not necessarily the case.

However, given Dumbledore's character, there is a high probability that he would not say this to Newt just for the sake of a crouching demon.

Unless Fudge is his biological son.

"I've asked about this too," Cedric said. "My dad said that Mr. Scamander's original words were, "We didn't find the Winged Devil. It's probably hiding."

But the photo provided to the Daily Prophet by the Ministry of Magic only contained the first half of the sentence, and they removed the second half. "

"Huh?" Kyle raised his eyebrows: "In order not to cause panic?"

"Yes, in order not to cause panic." Cedric spread his hands and said: "They even found a reason to send out Mr. Chris and Mr. Scamander, who had always been opposed to this."

Kyle touched his chin, and his previous doubts were cleared.

No wonder he always felt that something was wrong with Chris on this business trip. It turned out that this was the problem.

It's just transporting some magical animals, so why would Chris and Newt need to go with them?

That's it for Poison Sac Leopard and Australian Opal Eye. These two uncles are too dangerous and ordinary people can't handle them.

But what about those other magical animals.

It was obvious that a simple task that could be completed by just finding an inaccessible remote mountain forest or sending two strikers, but it also fell on Chris and Newt.

Think about it, a deputy director of the Ministry of Magic, a master of magical beasts well-known in the wizarding world. The two traveled thousands of kilometers together just to send an ordinary Bowtruckle back to its original place?

Just outrageous.

Under normal circumstances, let alone an ordinary Bowtruckle, even the Bowtruckle raised by Grindelwald would not receive this treatment.

Kyle thought for a while and asked: "Then has your father found the curling-winged demon?"

"No." Cedric shook his head and said, "My father and the others have been looking for him for more than a month, but there is no clue at all.

But Minister Fudge has been urging me to do it. He even lost his temper two days ago. This ***"

Cedric is still well-educated. When he talked about key words, he only moved his mouth without making any sound, which fully demonstrated the qualities that an excellent little wizard should have.

But his lip shape was very clear. Kyle could see that he praised the other party's family tree in a very sweet language.

After applying honey on his mouth, Cedric's mood inexplicably improved a lot. He glanced in the direction of the teacher's seat and said: "Let's not talk about this for now. Did you find that Professor Snape seemed very angry today?"

"Really?"

Kyle picked up a chicken leg and said without raising his head: "Maybe it's your illusion. He is always angry."

"That's true, but..." Cedric glanced in the direction of the teacher's seat again and said: "I still think he is a little different today. "

Snape on the stage looked as if he had drunk the wrong potion, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot. His sinister eyes kept scanning the four tables.

As if he had noticed someone was looking at him, Snape suddenly looked towards the Hufflepuffs, and Cedric was so scared that he quickly lowered his head.

Next to him, Kyle was still eating the chicken leg in his hand slowly, and from time to time he would say a few words to Mikkel who was sitting on the other side of him.
