Chapter 102 Final Examination

 A few days before the exam, Raton finally returned to Hogwarts.

When Kyle returned to the common room after dinner, he immediately saw Laton standing on the windowsill.

It looked exhausted, its eyes were drooped, its body had lost weight visibly, and its originally beautiful feathers had become dim and dull, looking gray.

After seeing Kyle, Raton raised his head and flapped his wings to fly over. However, halfway through the flight, it started to fall due to lack of strength.

Kyle quickly stepped forward to catch it.

 “I remember this is your owl.”

Cedric next to him looked at Raton who fell asleep in Kyle's arms and wondered: "How many letters did you let him send? Why is he so weak?"

"Just one...but I think it may have misunderstood what I meant."

Kyle carefully placed Raton on the sofa next to him, and then took an envelope from his paws.

It was a reply letter, and the handwriting on the envelope was Newt's.

Obviously, Raton did not deliver the letter to Dorset County and come back as Kyle wanted, but flew directly to find Newt. No wonder it took so long to come back.

Kyle shook his head dumbfounded... what a silly bird.

Tomorrow is the final exam. In order to ensure that they are in a good mental state the next day, the little wizards went to bed early.

Kyle ruffled the feathers on Rodon's neck, sat down next to him and opened the envelope.

 Inside is a brief reply.

                          institutions

I'm surprised to receive your letter from such a far away place. I've thought about what you said. The venom of the Winged Devil is not corrosive in any way, and it only targets the brain and has no effect on plants.

But I have checked the wood block you sent, and it does contain the venom of the Winged Demon. This is a very important discovery. As soon as the matter here is over, we will go to Hogwarts immediately.

 (Your father asked me to tell you to stay away from dangerous things. Dumbledore is responsible for everything.)

 —Newt Scamander. "

 After reading the reply, Kyle closed his eyes and sat there without saying a word, thinking about something.

Hagrid went to the Forbidden Forest that night not because he found them wandering at night, but because of another person.

 After he went deep into the Forbidden Forest, he might have found that person and had a fight with him, so there were two rows of messy footprints left next to the tree at that time.

 But unfortunately, there was a Winged Demon on the other side. Due to the influence of the venom, Hagrid forgot about it.

 He forgot that he had been to the Forbidden Forest and everything that happened during that time, so on Christmas Day, Hagrid did not deliver the Christmas tree to the auditorium at the specified time.

 Because in his memory, Halloween had just passed not long ago.

Now, everything makes sense.

And that curled-winged demon is probably the fish that the Ministry of Magic has been looking for that slipped through the net.

The only question now is who is the person who poisoned Hagrid.

Those wizards who hide their identities in the Pig’s Head pub? Or a mouse hiding in the castle...

 Half an hour later, Kyle, who had no clue, decided to give up.

 Nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up.

Just like what was said in the letter, Dumbledore has everything, he can take a vacation soon, so why bother with this leisure time.

Kyle stood up and carried Laton back to the dormitory.

The next day, the exam started.

 The first thing to do is the magic theory test, also known as the written test.

To prevent cheating, no one is allowed to bring their own quills and ink. They must use the stationery issued by the school.

 But this does not stop the little wizards from cheating.

Gryffindor Katie Bell entered the classroom nervously. Not long after she sat down, Professor McGonagall came over, pulled off the big red hair ornament on her head, and said coldly:

“Miss Bell, that’s not how the Transfiguration Spell works.”

The hair ornament kept squirming in Professor McGonagall's hands, and soon turned into a piece of parchment filled with small words.

Kyle, who witnessed the whole process, smacked his lips and gave a silent thumbs up in his mind.

Using transfiguration to cheat in front of Professor McGonagall... This operation is quite explosive in the entire magic world.

 If nothing else, this courage alone is already more than 98% of the little wizards, and he is worthy of being a Gryffindor.

The ones who wrote the notes on their clothes also couldn't escape... Professor McGonagall just walked around the classroom and snuck them all out.

As a senior professor and vice-principal who has been at Hogwarts for more than 30 years, Professor McGonagall does not need to use props. She can tell who is guilty just by looking at their expressions, so she can spot them right away.

 When everyone started answering the questions, she was still complaining in a low voice that Dumbledore should not put her in the first grade examination room.

This place is so unchallenging that Professor McGonagall feels that he should supervise the exams for students in fifth grade and above, where there are abundant cheating methods.

There are all kinds of magic potions, alchemy tools, gesture spells and so on.

Especially potions...Bafe's brain-awakening potion and sobriety potion are just the lowest level of things. It is said that at last year's N.E.W.T., some students even used Felixir, but she didn't see it.

In addition, it is not uncommon for people to try to sneak into the examination room using Polyjuice Potion and the Disillusionment Charm.

 So invigilating students in fifth grade and above is like fighting a smokeless war for professors.

 For other professors, this may be a kind of torture, but Professor McGonagall is different. She simply enjoys the feeling of competing with students in a battle of wits and courage.

  Unfortunately, this year she was assigned to Novice Village.

An hour later, Professor McGonagall looked at the group of honest freshmen below and complained again: "It's true Albus, why do I have to come to the first grade...even to the third grade?"

After the written exam, there was also a practical exam. Professor Flitwick asked the students to walk into the classroom one by one to see if they could make a pineapple ride around the broomstick.

Of course, the so-called "flying broomstick" is just a wooden stick with feathers on it.

This was not difficult for Kyle. Not only did he complete the requirements perfectly, he even manipulated a wooden stick to perform a classic Quidditch trick.

 Professor Flitwick gave him a perfect score on the spot.

Professor McGonagall asked them to turn rabbits into brooches. The more exquisite the brooch, the higher the score. If the brooch still retains the characteristics of a rabbit, points will be deducted.

Kyle remembered that he also happened to have a brooch, which was a Christmas gift from Mikel, so he changed it into something exactly the same.

 Professor McGonagall also gave him a perfect score.

The potion test was about boil potion, which can be said to be one of the simplest potions. Although Kyle brewed the perfect potion, he could not guarantee that he would get a high score.

During the exam, Snape almost always stood behind him, shaking his head constantly. You didn't need to think about it to know that he would find various reasons to deduct points.
