Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

 Chapter 542 The Second Project

 After entering February, time suddenly seemed to move much faster than before. It seemed that in just a blink of an eye, there was only one week left before February 27th.

However, Fred and George were quite disappointed. After being confused in the foyer that day, Karkaroff never came to the castle again. The "quick-act sugar feeding plan for skipping classes" that they had prepared for a long time never had the chance to be implemented. .

“The second project is about to start in a week. Are you really not going to take some time to study that stone?”

Once in the common room, Fleur looked at Kyle who was playing chess with Cedric and said in a somewhat irritable tone.

 She originally thought that Kyle was just joking, but she didn't expect that he was serious about it... As for why she was sure that Kyle didn't do research secretly behind her back.

 The reason is very simple, because the three stones were thrown on the cabinet in the common room, and they had been there for more than a month.

Had it not been for the diligent cleaning of the house elves, a thick layer of dust would have fallen on it.

　　She had wanted to make Kyle anxious before, so she secretly took away the stone at night.

The result...for half a month, Kyle didn't notice this at all. He did whatever he was supposed to do every day and never looked for it once.

I really met Merlin...

 “Not prepared.” Kyle said casually.

If he had this idea, he would have done so when Nicoléme came that day. For Nico, the secret hidden on the stone was almost the same as if it were written directly on it, and he could see it at a glance.

Since I didn’t ask at that time, there is no need to waste this time now.

"Whatever you do, if I don't care about you anymore I'll be a little leprechaun!" Fleur turned her head and angrily returned to the dormitory, dragging Kangna away before leaving.

"I seem to have heard this sentence somewhere..." Kyle moved the knight's position, "It seems that she said the same thing two months ago."

Cedric shook his head, subconsciously glanced at the shelf in the lounge and the three shining stones on it, and then said:

"Actually, I thought you were joking at the time. Who knew you were really not in a hurry at all?"

"It's really not necessary. The referees will naturally tell you when the time comes." Kyle said with a smile: "And you should also know about the previous Triwizard Tournament. Only the third event is the real competition. The first two At most, this project is just a warm-up, and by the way, it adds a little advantage.

And these advantages are also fixed. As long as you are first, there is no difference at all whether you are 100 points or 80 points. "

"Although that's true, you are probably the only one who can act so calm..." Cedric sighed, "I heard that Fleur was so anxious a few days ago that she was still in the lounge at one o'clock in the morning. There’s a book inside.”

 “I didn’t pay attention to that.”

"I guess so." Cedric said, and then he changed the subject: "But have you noticed that Fleur seems to have changed a lot recently?"

"Change?" Kyle thought for a while and said, "No, isn't she always like this?"

"That's true for you." Cedric shook his head, "I remember that when she first came here, she had a arrogant attitude towards everyone, but now...how should I say, yesterday I saw her in Helping a third-grade student correct his hand gestures for the Happy Charm, this wouldn't have happened three months ago, right?"

Fleur Delacour? Helping a third grader correct his gestures?

Kyle thought he heard it wrong, and said incredulously: "Are you sure you heard it right?"

 After the Beauxbatons students arrived here, many people tried to use the excuse of asking for magic spells to talk to Fleur. Faced with them, regardless of their gender or age, Fleur would basically choose to ignore them.

 Even Cedric once subconsciously asked her a question about transfiguration, but also received no answer.

“I feel like she’s looking at me like a sprouting potato,” Cedric said at the time.

It is hard to imagine that such a Fleur would take the initiative to teach others the magic gestures. "Of course not..." Cedric said firmly, "After all, she is the only one in the entire Hogwarts with that kind of silver hair."

"Then she has indeed changed a lot." Kyle muttered.

 …

Over the next few days, the atmosphere in the castle began to become more and more intense. The cheering badges that had been put away were also taken out of the box one after another and people wore them on their bodies.

 As for those who have lost their badges or don’t have them, you can go to Sirius and get one for free.

 He made a large box of badges himself and placed them at the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office. Anyone who wanted one could get one from inside.

Originally, it was placed in the office, but Professor Moody reacted too much when faced with the sudden knock on the door. After repairing the door three times in a row, Sirius simply put the box directly at the door.

Fred and George were the most exaggerated. They hung almost half a box of badges on their robes, and they made a clicking sound when they walked, as if they were wearing a suit of armor.

There is only one day left before the second project, and now, wherever Kyle goes, he can hear all kinds of cheers.

 There are students and professors.

During the second period of Care of Magical Creatures class in the afternoon, Hagrid ran up to Kyle on the pretext of checking his homework and asked him in a low voice how his preparations had been over the past few days.

 After getting the affirmative answer, Hagrid patted him on the shoulder excitedly,

"Before you dealt with the fire dragon, I was really worried, but now I know that as long as you want to do anything, there is nothing you can't do. I'm not worried at all anymore. I can feel that you will definitely succeed. "

 “Thanks, Hagrid…”

Kyle said with a grin as he pulled his feet out of the soft mud.

Sirius was right, Hagrid should realize how strong he was.

 In the evening, the atmosphere in the Hufflepuff common room reached its peak, because two of the three warriors were here.

Snacks and drinks in the lounge were spread out on all the tables. As soon as Kyle came in, people kept stuffing various candies and dried beef into his pockets, as if they were afraid that he would not be in the mood to eat tomorrow and would be in the game. It's like being hungry.

Although Fleur is a warrior of Beauxbatons, she has lived here for a long time after all, so everyone did not favor one over the other, and also gave her some stuff.

Of course, there are definitely not as many as Kyle.

 In order to allow the warriors to have a good rest, everyone spontaneously returned to the dormitory before nine o'clock in the evening.

 Soon, Kyle and Fleur were the only ones left in the lounge.

Fleur was also preparing to take the carriage back to Beauxbatons, and Ms. Maxim seemed uneasy about her staying in the castle for the night at this time.

But when she reached the door, she suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "If you don't want to go to bed so early at night, just go out for a walk.

“Remember to take those stones, go to the lake on the site, and put them in the water, where the moonlight can shine... Well, that’s it.”

Hearing this, Kyle turned his head subconsciously, but by this time Fleur had already left the common room, and he only saw a closed wooden door.
