Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard
Chapter 198 An unexpected gain
After the start of the semester, professors became more relaxed about inspections of the library and night tours. Since they had to grade assignments, they naturally did not have time to inspect the library at night.
That night, Kyle, who had been honest for two weeks, took the Marauder's Map and eagerly opened the door to the library.
The new bookshelf in the box has been made. It can't stay empty forever. Kyle plans to fill it up in the remaining half semester.
Although this task is a bit arduous, as long as he sleeps an hour less every day and works a little harder, he should still be able to complete it.
Kyle took the wand and came to the forbidden book area with ease.
Only this time, he didn't go to the shelf to get the books in the same order as before. Instead, he carefully identified the name of each book. Only when he saw what he needed, he would take it out and put it aside.
After more than half an hour, Kyle found a total of three books, and they were all related to the basilisk.
"Deadly Sight"
"Medieval Exploration: Ancient Species That Are Fading Out"
"How to Make a Rooster Lay Eggs"
But there seems to be something strange mixed in here.
Kyle held the last book, which had a black cover and was about as thick as a notebook. He once wondered how this thing got into the restricted book area.
But Newt and Hagrid will probably like this book very much, and it's a good time to copy it now and give it to them as a Christmas gift next year.
Because it had been a long time since he had gone on a night tour here, and because he read more books this time, Kyle stayed in the library until dawn.
In the next few days, he returned to the busy state before the holiday.
Quidditch practice begins again.
Fortunately, Harris's requirements for them are not as strict as other teams. Even if the game is approaching, it is still just regular training three times a week.
In contrast, Gryffindor is different. In order to play the next game, Wood has reached the point of frenzy and trains almost every afternoon.
Even in the continuous rainy days after the heavy snowfall, Kyle could see them on the Quidditch pitch.
Fred and George complained to them more than once, saying that Wood was becoming a training freak and didn't care about their life or death.
Moreover, Fred also said that if things continue like this, they may all be admitted to the campus hospital before the game.
However, Kyle had reason to suspect that they were playing a trick. After all, the next game was between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor.
In addition to Quidditch training, Kyle also takes time to visit Hagrid's hut on weekends.
Because he discovered that ever since Hagrid started paying attention to the magical animals in the Forbidden Forest, there would always be various surprises in his cabin.
"Here you go, Kyle, unicorn tail hair."
In the room, Hagrid poured Kyle a cup of tea and gave him a small bag. "I remembered that you liked these things, so I collected some for you. They all fall off naturally."
Kyle took the bag and opened it and took a look... There were more than a dozen long silver hairs inside, and they were in perfect condition.
"So many..." Kyle said in surprise: "These are all things you picked up recently?"
Unicorns don't like to shed hair as much as swallow-tailed dogs, especially tail hairs... If there is no intervention from a wizard, it will take about half a year for one hair to fall off.
I didn't expect that Hagrid could pick up so many in a few weeks. Is there a unicorn tribe in the Forbidden Forest?
"Most of them were left over from before." Hagrid put the copper kettle on the stove and said casually: "I originally wanted to weave them into mats, but the color of the tail hairs is too bright, and it would look a bit awkward when mixed together. They looked good, so I picked them all out.”
"Originally there were more, but I couldn't find them. The rest are here, just for you."
"Okay..." Kyle twitched his lips.
All I can say is that he is worthy of Hagrid. He only uses unicorn hair to knit mats. He actually dislikes the fact that the color of his tail hair is too bright. He has learned a lot.
"By the way Kyle..."
At this time, Hagrid suddenly said with some trepidation: "How is the spider tonic I asked you for...how is it going?
Of course, I don't mean to rush you, I'm just curious... Yes, I'm curious to ask. "
"Almost." Kyle thought for a moment and said, "I did a test on Li Jordan's bag spider, and the effect was pretty good.
Next, you just need to add the eight-leaf flower, but this plant is rare and it takes two weeks to deliver it from Diagon Alley. "
The eight-leaf flower is a very fragile material that is only useful when it is the freshest. It also has very strict requirements on the growing environment. Incorrect light and temperature may cause it to wither quickly.
Therefore, those potion shops usually do not prepare inventory in the store. They usually make reservations and pick when they are needed.
Of course, its price is not cheap, one plant costs twenty-nine Galleons, and you have to pay up front, and do not accept any form of returns.
Still, Kyle placed the order without hesitation.
Not to mention the dozen unicorn tail hairs now, even compared with the nearly two pints of Acromantula venom that Hagrid gave him before, these are just a small change.
"Eight-leaf flower..." Hagrid thought for a moment and asked, "Is it a plant with eight leaves, purple in the middle and yellow or red on the outside?
"Yes, when they mature, the petals will change from red to yellow." Kyle said: "Does this kind of plant also exist in the Forbidden Forest?"
"That's right." Hagrid nodded and said, "I only saw it yesterday when I went to patrol the Forbidden Forest. It was near where the Unicorns live."
"Can you take me there?" Kyle asked expectantly: "I promise not to run around."
"No!" Hagrid refused without hesitation.
The unicorn lives deep in the Forbidden Forest, and it is too dangerous there for him to allow Kyle to go there.
"If you need it, I can bring it to you in a few days," Hagrid said.
"Yes, of course." Kyle nodded repeatedly: "But when you go to collect those eight-leaf flowers, it's best to dig them out with the soil. The more soil, the better. Also, remember to write me a letter in advance, and I will Waiting for you here at the cabin."
Hagrid nodded and took note of Kyle's words carefully.
"You can dig with the soil, right? No problem. By the way, eight...ahem, do you still need the spider's venom?"
"What you gave me before is enough." Kyle shook his head.
Although Hagrid himself might not mind, Kyle was too embarrassed to keep picking at his wool.
Moreover, the venom of the Acromantula is not often used. One pint is enough for him to use until graduation.
