Chapter 69 What Would You Do?

"Mr. Chopper, why don't you follow the instructions in the book and grind the lionfish spines into powder before adding them to the crucible.

In the potions class, Snape stared at Kyle and said in a strange tone: "Do you think you are some kind of potions genius, and you actually dare to tamper with the textbooks?"

"Five points from Hufflepuff for your arrogance."

Kyle glanced up at the blackboard.

It clearly says: Do not grind the lionfish spines, boil them in boiling water for five minutes and cut them into sections.

Such big words, and it was written by Snape himself, how could it mean that he had tampered with the textbook.

"Professor..." Kyle took a deep breath and said in as normal a voice as possible: "That's what's written on the blackboard."

"Oh, that's what I wrote wrong."

Snape calmly waved his wand and erased the sentence on the blackboard.

"Does what I write must be correct? What about your judgment ability? If I say that I want to add my own heart, will you also do it?

Because you have no idea, Hufflepuff will deduct another three points. "

…

Until the end of get out of class, Kyle's hand was tightly holding the rock pie in his pocket, hesitating whether to throw it on the back of Snape's head.

Although Snape had been deducting points from him for no reason since very early on, today he was particularly excessive. He would do anything to deduct points, even without shame.

Can I still erase my own writing?

This kind of waist-breaking operation can be regarded as an eye-opener for Kyle.

Of course, the effect was immediate. In just one class, Kyle was deducted more than thirty points.

From the time he entered school until now, his other courses combined have not had as many points deducted as today's class.

The other little badgers came over to comfort him, and even Kangna thoughtfully handed him a licorice candy.

After taking a look, Kyle chose to ignore it.

During the meal, Fred and George also heard about what happened in the Potions class, and they ran over and patted Kyle on the shoulder, comforting: "It's okay, Snape has been deducting points from us, it's okay. of."

"Yeah, pfft... I mean, you have to look out."

The two said comforting words, but with undisguised smiles on their faces.

It was obvious that they were just here to see a joke.

Just when Kyle was about to drive the two of them away, Fred leaned his head over and lowered his voice and said, "Okay, stop thinking about those unhappy things. I'll show you something good."

He looked around and carefully took out a square piece of parchment from his pocket.

"Remember that I had something to tell you a few days ago? This is it." George also came over and whispered: "A magical magic item. I dare say you will never guess what it is."

"Could it be..." Kyle raised his eyebrows and said with a puzzled expression: "Is this parchment that can automatically write homework?"

"..."

The expressions of the twins, who had been so proud before, suddenly became a little stiff.

"If it's possible..." Fred said wistfully, "I really hope it is."

"But its real function is great." George said: "This is a map of Hogwarts. Of course, it is not the ordinary stuff you sell."

"We call it the Marauder's Map."

Fred said as he took out his wand and tapped it lightly on the parchment.

"I solemnly swear..."

In an instant, thin lines of ink spread like a spider's web from where the wand tip touched, connecting to each other and extending to every corner of the parchment.

Then large green characters appeared on the top.

"Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs.

Gentlemen who specialize in helping magic mischief-makers, present -

Marauder's Map. "

Kyle took the parchment from Fred and looked at the famous Marauder's Map carefully.

It depicts all the details of Hogwarts Castle in detail, and it is much more detailed than an ordinary map. It can almost be said to be a miniature of Hogwarts.

Everything in the castle, whether it's a painting, a carpet, or even a vase, can be found on the map.

The most unusual thing is that there are also many small black dots moving on the map, each with a name in extremely small fonts.

Kyle saw Dumbledore in the principal's office, and also saw Filch and Peeves moving quickly from the fifth floor corridor to the sixth floor.

All of this is clearly displayed.

But if it's a place with a lot of people...such as the current auditorium, it won't work.

A large number of names overlapped and it was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly.

In addition, Kyle also noticed that this map did not seem to show all the locations of the secret passages.

Because the Whomping Willow location on the map is empty, with nothing there.

Kyle handed the map back to Fred and asked, "How did you get it?"

"We were in first grade at that time, young, carefree, and innocent..." Fred and George squinted their eyes and fell into memories.

"For some trivial matter, Filch pulled us into his office and threatened to kill us..."

"Confinement."

"Eviscerate."

"And we couldn't help but take aim at one of his filing cabinet drawers. It was marked, Confiscated Items, Highly Dangerous."

Fred suddenly laughed and said: "Kyle, what would you do if it were you?"

Kyle thought for a moment and said, "I will lead Peeves there, provide him with enough dung balls or pepper bullets, and then take advantage of the chaos to empty the drawer."

"..."

Fred and George opened their mouths, unable to speak for a long time. After a long while, Fred shook his head and said, "Kyle, you deserve 30 points deducted by Snape, really, you deserve it."

"Don't bring up that." Kyle looked at him unhappily and said, "So this map is what you took from that drawer."

"Yes." George smacked his lips and said, "We don't have as much courage as you, so we only took this."

"But how do you know how to use it." Kyle flipped through the parchment, "This is It's not written on the surface."

"Speaking of this... we have to mention Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs." Fred exclaimed: "These four are simply prank geniuses."

"They took apart the password and hid it in every corner of the castle." George said: "As long as all the clues are found, the complete password can be obtained."

"Unfortunately, we have been looking for a year..." Fred said regretfully: "But we still haven't found the complete password."

"So we can only use the map five times a day, and each time for only half an hour." George smiled and said: "This is a great cause, we plan to complete it in three years."

"What if we still can't find it in three years." Kyle asked.

"That means we don't deserve it." George shrugged, "We'll find a new owner for it when the time comes."

"Really." Kyle said, "So you showed it to me so that I can join you in finding clues?"

"No, no, no, Kyle." Fred shook his head and said, "The password is a test from the four seniors. We have to complete it ourselves."

"Then you guys this time..."

"Let's go on a night tour!" Fred and George said in unison.
