Chapter 20 Failed Prank
After sitting down at the Hufflepuff table, Kyle felt inexplicably relaxed.
Before the sorting, he always felt uneasy, but now that everything was settled, he finally became a member of Hogwarts in the true sense.
This feels great.
Kyle leaned on the dining table, supporting his chin with his left hand, leisurely watching the next sorting situation, and waiting for the dinner to start.
Because of the extremely long branch just now, many people in the auditorium were looking at Kyle curiously.
Many of the witches looked at Kyle and Cedric who were sitting together talking and laughing, and then turned to look at the classmates beside them, almost breaking their back molars each one.
Damn it, why are all the handsome ones going to Hufflepuff? It's not fair!
…
At the Gryffindor table, Fred and George also almost broke their molars.
"Why did Kyle go to Hufflepuff!" Fred thumped his thigh in annoyance: "In this case, our carefully prepared welcome ceremony will be useless!"
"Stop it Fred, please give me a break first." George scratched his head on the side: "To be honest, I can accept it even if Kyle goes to Slytherin, but Hufflepuff... How is this possible!"
"Yes!" Fred nodded: "Kyle is loyal? Kind? Is the Sorting Hat an old fool?"
Just when Fred and George fell silent at the same time, a freshman who had just been assigned to Gryffindor happened to sit on the empty seat next to them.
The next second...
"Ouch!"
The screams echoed through the auditorium, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
The new Gryffindor student jumped up more than three feet in the air like a frightened guardian tree frog, and then started running around holding his butt.
Running and wailing at the same time.
Only then did everyone see clearly that there was something round hanging behind him.
It was about the same size as a Bludger in Quidditch, and a big mouth full of fangs was biting the freshman's butt.
"Wait, that ball looks familiar." Fred, who was watching the show, seemed to suddenly remember something and turned around and said, "George, didn't you put the biting ball away?"
George was stunned for a moment: "No, I thought you had already accepted it."
The two looked at each other, and then looked at a position on the left at the same time, where the freshman was sitting just now.
Empty, no doubt.
"Oh, damn." Fred scratched his hair with a distressed look on his face: "That's all our savings."
The biting ball is a new prop that Fred and George bought from Zuko's Joke Shop at a high price. It can be disguised as an ordinary cushion and placed anywhere.
It's just a bit expensive, requiring three galleons, which is not a small sum of money for Fred and George.
But when they thought that Kyle would be sorted into another hospital today, they gritted their teeth and spent all their savings to buy it, preparing to give their junior brother an unforgettable surprise.
In order not to discover any clues, they deliberately arranged everything in advance when Kyle put on the Sorting Hat and placed the cushion on an empty seat next to him.
In this way, if Kyle is assigned to Gryffindor, they can naturally lead each other into a trap position.
It doesn't matter even if you are assigned to another college. It's just a cushion and you can take it back easily.
Everything is so perfect.
It's a pity that God is not as good as God. They never expected that Kyle would be assigned to Hufflepuff, which they thought was the most unlikely. The two of them were shocked and did not get the "cushion" back immediately.
As a result, this scene happened.
"Fred, do you think we can still get that biting ball back?" George looked at the freshman's back, his heart dripping with blood.
That's three galleons. If I could buy a whole box of dung eggs, why don't you feel bad?
Fred looked at Professor McGonagall, who was walking towards the new students, and said helplessly: "I think I won't be able to get it back."
After saying that, the two of them sighed together.
On the other side, Professor McGonagall had also arrived at the new student's side. She first took off the biting ball, and then checked the little wizard's condition.
No injuries, no signs of damage on the robes, standard magic trick.
Seeing the familiar techniques and tools, Professor McGonagall immediately identified the culprit without even thinking about it, and immediately turned around and glared at the twins.
However, because the sorting was not over yet, she couldn't say much. After saying "Twenty points from Gryffindor", she turned and returned to the stage.
The new student was also frightened. After being brought back by Percy, he carefully checked it three times. He sat back at the dining table only after he was sure there was nothing wrong.
Not far away, Kyle looked at the frowning Fred and George, without concealing his ridicule, and slowly extended a middle finger to them.
Kyle dared to swear on Ron's integrity that the biting ball just now was 100% prepared for him by these two guys.
Now that Professor McGonagall has discovered it, it can only be said that evil will be punished.
"No George, Kyle is too arrogant." Fred's face turned red with anger.
Others didn't know what that gesture meant, but he did.
In the past eleven years, whenever Kyle taunted them, he would extend his middle finger, so he knew exactly what Kyle meant just now.
"Don't worry Fred, as long as Kyle is still at Hogwarts, we still have a chance."
Like Fred, George was equally angry, and his ears even turned red.
But the problem is that they really have nothing to do with Kyle now, and they don't dare to do anything under Professor McGonagall's death gaze, so they can only give Kyle a middle finger in retaliation.
Out of sight is pure.
The two temporarily suppressed their desire for revenge, and turned their heads at the same time, trying not to look at Kyle's infuriating face.
Facing their actions, Kyle didn't care.
It was just the last resistance of two red-haired defeated dogs, and he wouldn't take it seriously.
And Kyle also knew that Fred and George would definitely not just let it go, and maybe they were discussing how to get back on their feet right now.
But so what.
For the past eleven years, he had almost never lost the war with the Weasley twins.
The only few times they lost were because they were too young at the time, and Charlie was shameless in bullying the small, which allowed them to win back a victory.
Now Charlie is very busy with graduation exams and Quidditch, so he doesn't have time to care about them.
Without Charlie, who else could the twins turn to for support?
Ron?
If that were the case, it would be easier to deal with them.
So, with the brilliant record there, Kyle is fearless.
