Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

 Chapter 616: Various Clubs in Hogwarts

 After leaving Umbridge's office, Kyle walked quickly through the corridor and walked towards the Great Hall.

 It was already noon, and the auditorium was full of people coming to have lunch.

Beside the Hufflepuff table, the team members, including Cedric, were sitting around discussing the new players who had been added in the morning.

After seeing Kyle, Cedric quickly moved aside to make a space.

"How was your confinement at Professor Umbridge's? She didn't give you any trouble, did she?"

 “What did Umbridge ask you to do?”

 After Kyle sat down, everyone around him started asking questions.

“It’s okay.” Kyle paused for a moment and said, “I wrote the sentence five hundred times.”

 “It’s okay…” Cedric said, “It’s not too bad.”

"Yes." Kyle nodded, "Five hundred times is a bit too much. With ten sheets of parchment, it feels like writing a very long assignment."

“It’s not bad.” Kangna comforted him and pushed a plate with pie over: “Would you like some pie?”

“Thank you, I was hungry an hour ago.” Kyle cut a piece and put it in his mouth.

Beef patty, with onions and peppers, tastes pretty good.

"By the way." He looked at Cedric, "How are the new players this year?"

“It’s a bit average,” Cedric said. “We haven’t found any amazingly talented players this year. The only player who is pretty good is a third-year goalkeeper.

"Fifth grade Vlopa Devi was also a good flyer, but she didn't seem to pay much attention to Quidditch. During the selection, she made it clear that team training could not coincide with the "Charming Club" she joined. , otherwise she would choose the club instead of training."

“Wait a minute, what club did you just say?” Kyle looked up and asked.

 “The Charm Club,” Cedric repeated.

 “Does Hogwarts still have such an organization?” Kyle asked doubtfully.

“Not only are there, but there are many,” Cedric said, “such as the Wizards Chess Club, the Gorgeous Robes Club, the Afternoon Tea Club, etc.”

“These have nothing to do with professors. They are all spontaneously established by students with common interests. There are fixed times and places for activities, including when I was in fourth grade, I joined the Wizard Chess Club.”

 “I’ve never heard of it.”

 “Do you have time to attend these?” Cedric asked rhetorically.

Kyle was speechless for a moment. He seemed to be quite busy before. Just participating in the professors' club every week is enough for him to keep him busy. He also has to find time to participate in team training and study magic texts. In the end, the remaining time is left for homework.

There was some time last school year, but at that time he represented the warriors of Hogwarts, and no one would mention such unimportant things to him.

Thinking about it now, Kyle also vaguely remembered that when he was in the common room, someone discussed what activities he wanted to participate in, but he didn't pay much attention at the time.

“I see…” Kyle nodded, looked at Kangna and asked curiously: “Have you joined that charm club?”

“No,” said Kangna. “This is the first time I’ve heard this name.”

"Me too." Kyle smiled: "It seems that this club is not as authoritative as imagined."

Kanna couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"I advise you to be more careful. You cannot think that others are not authoritative just because you have not been invited."

Cedric said, "There are a lot of people who are 'charming', and it is very difficult to join them. You need to go through a series of tests."

Kyle glanced at him and said, "So, Qiu is also one of them?"

Cedric was silent for a moment. "Well, it's certainly not very authoritative."

As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but laugh.

"But one thing I'm right about is that there are quite a lot of them." Cedric continued: "In addition to Flo, Gryffindor's Wiki is also one of them, and she also participated in the selection this time. She is also a very good flyer. "However, Captain Angelina did not admit her, but chose Ron Weasley, who was mediocre in all aspects.

"I think this may be a deliberate illusion...after all, the Weasley family has produced many outstanding members."

"Maybe you are overthinking it, but it's not necessarily true." Kyle said, "And perfect cooperation can also fill the gap in personal strength of the players. It's still a while before the first game starts, so we just need to train a few more times. "

 “That’s what I thought too,” said Cedric.

 In the afternoon, a few people who had nothing to do came to the lawn outside.

Fred and George wanted to see if Hagrid was back. Their truant candy series products require some special poisonous berries as raw materials, which are available in the Forbidden Forest. They can save a lot of money by picking them by themselves.

But when they walked over, the door of Hagrid's hut was still closed, and there was no sound at all. It didn't look like there was anyone at all.

"It looks like Hagrid hasn't come back yet," said Fred. "I really want to know what he's been doing."

“Don’t think about it yet.” George looked a little excited, “Don’t you think this is a good opportunity?

"Hagrid's absence means that the Forbidden Forest is unguarded. Why can't we go in and collect berries ourselves?"

“Hey, let me tell you.” Cedric glanced at the two of them, “You two have to say this in front of us, is it really okay?”

Fred and George then realized that there were four prefects beside them.

And prefects can ignore the college, which means that as long as they are caught violating school rules, points can be deducted even if they are not prefects of the college.

"Can you pretend you didn't see anything?" George said with a smile, "After all, the opportunity is rare, and we just want to pick some berries."

 “Really just collecting berries?” Qiu was skeptical of their words.

"Of course," Fred said, "We promise."

"I promise to only take berries, but I don't guarantee how far it will go, right." Kyle added in a low voice.

 The poisonous berries needed for skipping candy are not uncommon. They can be found on the outside of the Forbidden Forest, as well as in the depths.

 With their adventurous character, they will definitely choose the deepest ones.

Fred and George didn't feel embarrassed seeing their ideas exposed, but before they could quibble, a stern voice came from not far away.

 “What are you doing!”

Professor Graplan came out of the Forbidden Forest carrying two large buckets and looked at them warily.

"Students are not allowed to come to the Forbidden Forest. Go back quickly, or I will tell Professor McGonagall."

“No, we are here to find Professor Hagrid.” George said quickly: “Where has he gone?”

"We're here to find Hagrid again." Professor Grapeland muttered in a low voice, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, but you'd better go back to the castle quickly. Students should not attend the Care of Magical Creatures class at any other time. Show up here.”

 “Okay Professor, let’s leave now,” said Cedric.

The people then walked towards the castle, and Fred and George followed.

　　“She looks inhumane.” Fred muttered in a low voice, “I still like Hagrid better.”

 “Yeah,” George agreed.

“That’s not what you said before.” Qiu gave them a funny look, “Don’t you often complain that Hagrid is too strict with the Forbidden Forest and you can’t sneak in?”

“But at least he’s willing to hear us out.”

“Sometimes we go to the Forbidden Forest to help bring out the things we need.”
