Learn magic from Hogwarts

But Peeves is actually not someone who can't be played with, uh, a ghost. After breaking free from the magic glue, it returned to its physical form, which made Noah drop his hand that was about to move in disappointment.

Soon Peeves encountered the second trap.

That is an invisible transparent "wall", the latest product of the joke shop.

Peeves hadn't seen it before, but he walked carefully and kept observing the surroundings, so he was keenly aware of something here. He raised his hand and touched it to avoid this trap, and even had the energy to mock it a few times.

The trap is crude.

The three Gryffindors were a little disappointed, but they continued to read.

This transparent wall was only the size of a single-sided door and could be bypassed on both sides, so they placed the next trap behind the door, on both sides and behind it.

Peeves also believed that there must be traps behind the wall, but he still stepped on it with confidence.

It chose the right side, and as soon as it passed by it heard a gust of wind.

Peeves reacted quickly and ducked to avoid the pendulum hitting him. Then he easily avoided the strange water ball that suddenly appeared under his feet and landed in a safe area with a sliding step.

"Hmph, it's too easy!" Peeves put his hands on his hips contentedly, turning a blind eye to the colorful "water balls" behind him.

These water balloons are called "treading water balloons". They are only about the size of a soybean and look colorful, but they contain some strange potions. Once they are stepped on, they will have different effects.

For example, if the blue one is stepped on, the whole person will turn blue, and if the red one is stepped on, some red dots will appear on the body.

Although the twins used some means to hide the balls well, Peeves was still keenly aware of the problems on the ground.

It avoids these traps without even blurring.

The twins who set the trap looked at Peeves' feet with disappointment, probably thinking about how to improve in the future.

But just when Peeves was feeling proud, Noah moved his finger.

The things fixed on the ceiling suddenly fell down.

Noah's manipulation of these little things was much better than the three Weasleys. After all, magic sometimes works so well.

So when Peeves didn't notice it, he fell into this overly simple and crude trap.

In the blink of an eye, it was hit all over by several large dung eggs, and even a portable swamp was hit under its feet.

The smell spread out immediately, and Peeves' feet fell into the swamp.

Peeves: "?"

"Wow." The three Gryffindors made surprised sounds, probably because they didn't expect to fall into Noah's trap.

Peeves wiped the smelly dung eggs on his body and looked around unwillingly: "Okay, okay, you guys are still capable. I'm going to get serious. Don't try to tease me again!"

It just broke in again.

As expected, Peeves, who was more cautious, avoided two or three traps in a row, but finally found the "surprise" prepared by the twins.

"What is this?" Peeves was a little surprised. He didn't expect that a gift box would appear at the end.

The twins came out of their hiding place without knowing what was going on.

In fact, Peeves had not yet triggered many of the traps, but Peeves discovered the gift box they prepared early.

This made the twins reflect on how to make the traps more interlocking next time, so that the pranked target could trigger all the traps directly.

But now that Peeves has found the final gift, they have no choice but to give it a try.

The three of them walked out, and Noah stopped hiding.

Seeing the four Peeves, he was stunned for a moment, especially when he saw Noah, his expression was much less conceding than Jordan's before.

"Wow, in addition to three Gryffindors, there is actually one Slytherin?!" It didn't like Noah before, but now it decided to change its view of Noah.

A Slytherin who knows how to play pranks! What a novelty!

But Noah still didn't like it. He came to "revenge", not to please Peeves.

So Noah ignored Peeves' words, but the three Gryffindors didn't necessarily.

The Weasley twins approached Peeves and said that the big dung egg and portable swamp it was smashed into were the work of Noah.

Peeves: "...?"

Peeves couldn't accept it. Even if a Slytherin was involved, it fell into the opponent's trap?!

Well, it seems that this Slytherin is not only good at magic, but also can do pranks.

It was about to praise Noah a few words, saying that it was okay for him to play pranks, but Noah spoke first: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just here to repay you for the trouble you caused me before."

Peeves: "???"

"Hey, none of those pranks ever worked!"

It retracts, every good thing in Slytherin, even this one is a mischief maker!

Noah sneered: "That's because I have the ability."

In other words, Peeves has no abilities.

Peeves: "..."

Peeves: "!"

"Just wait! Next time I will definitely..."

"Next time it won't be such a trivial prank." Noah was not afraid at all. Anyway, he had already mastered some techniques to restrain Peeves, and the results just proved to be very good.

It was just his instinct to deal with Peeves directly.

Seeing that the atmosphere between one person and one ghost was getting tense, the two Weasleys immediately came out to smooth things over and attracted Peeves' attention.

"Peeves, aren't you curious about the surprise we have prepared for you?"

Peeves' attention was immediately diverted and he looked at the box in his hand: "Is this for me?"

"Of course!" said the Weasley twins, "a gift we prepared just for you."

"Gift!" According to Peeves, who dislikes cats and dogs, it was his first time to receive a gift, even if it was Christmas, he didn't deserve it.

Now it has!

Peeves looked touched: "Then can I open it?"

"Of course," the twins nodded, "This is a gift and a reward."

"Wow!" Peeves couldn't wait to open the box.

Then as expected, a spring-loaded fist flew out from inside.

Peeves... Peeves hid.

"Hey, I knew it!" Peeves flicked the spring glove, "I knew it was a trap!"

"As expected of you," the Weasley twins looked regretful, "but there is indeed a gift inside."

Peeves was dubious. He took out the glove easily and looked under the box. There was something really left at the bottom of the box.

It's an apple pie.

"Our mother made this," the Weasley twins smacked their lips, "I just sent it yesterday."

"Apple pie!" Peeves was stunned. He didn't expect the gift to be so simple.

"Our mother's apple pie is delicious!" the two Weasleys began to recommend.

Peeves burst into tears at the recommendation and was about to take out this pie.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I put my hand in, the apple pie suddenly flew out and hit it in the face, hitting it all over the face.

Oh, this is the real prank the twins have prepared.

An apple pie smashed in the face!

"I wish you a Merry Christmas in advance! Hahahahaha!" The two successful Weasleys laughed.

"Hey, you two little rascals!" Peeves wiped his face, but couldn't help but add the corner of his mouth, "Oh, okay, it does taste good."
