Chapter 136: Chapter 134: Tycoon Snape
The new student nad Hermione soon left with her dad.
As soon as she left, Fred showed a strange expression.
"She morized all the textbooks..."
"Yes, Fred, you heard right." George held back a laugh, "We did indeed et another Percy."
Before he entered school, Percy also morized all the textbooks, and for that, Mrs. Weasley rewarded him with a set of brand-new robes.
"Which house do you think she will be sorted into?" George asked.
Fred raised his eyebrows, "Do we even need to think about it? It’s definitely Ravenclaw."
"I think so too."
"No, I think it’s Gryffindor." At this point, Kael, who hadn’t been part of the conversation, suddenly spoke up: "Don’t forget, Percy is in Gryffindor."
"That’s different, Kael," Fred shook his head and said, "Our whole family is in Gryffindor."
George added, "Actually, we’ve always thought Percy wanted to be in Ravenclaw more, but the Sorting Hat put him in Gryffindor."
Kael stroked his chin and said, "How about we make a bet."
At the ntion of a bet, Fred and George imdiately got excited.
"What’s the bet?"
"How about a Galleon."
Kael took out a gold coin and flipped it in his fingers. "If she’s sorted into Ravenclaw, I’ll give each of you a Galleon."
"..."
Fred and George glanced at each other, exchanging a quick look of understanding.
It didn’t take long for the two to co to an agreent.
Fred looked at Kael, mischievously, and said, "That’s too boring. How about sothing more exciting?"
"Like what...?"
"We’ll bet this!" George took out a piece of toffee from his pocket, "If that little girl is sorted into Ravenclaw, you have to eat this Fat Tongue Toffee at the start-of-term feast."
"Are you sure?" Kael’s expression turned a bit strange, "Then what if she’s sorted into Gryffindor?"
"Then we’ll eat it," both said at the sa ti.
Kael’s expression beca even stranger, he stifled his laughter and took the toffee from George.
"Tsk, alright, I agree."
Fred and George extended their hands and said, "Then it’s a deal!"
"It’s a deal." Kael also extended his hand and shook hands with them.
Initially, he just wanted to earn so pocket money, but since Fred and George were so enthusiastic, he didn’t mind enjoying a little show.
The three of them released their hands and exchanged looks, each with a smile, and none brought it up again.
Kael looked toward the station entrance and curiously asked, "It’s been quite a while, why haven’t Ron and Mrs. Weasley co in yet?"
"No idea, they might have run into another lost first-year again," Fred said.
"Things like that happen often at King’s Cross Station."
George glanced toward the train, "Never mind that, let’s get on the train. Lee Jordan wrote before saying he got a big bag of spiders as a pet. Did anyone notice him co yet?"
Speaking of pets...
Kael subconsciously glanced at the unimpressive box in his hand.
Newt’s reply had arrived that afternoon, and in it, he agreed to Kael’s request to adopt the Niffler.
Now, the Niffler was in the box, and Kael had given it a nice na.
Jerry.
After boarding the train, Fred and George quickly went to find Lee Jordan. Kael took his luggage and headed toward the end of the train.
However, just as he took a couple of steps, a compartnt door not far away suddenly opened, and a small head poked out.
Conna waved and said, "Kael, over here!"
Kael quickly walked over.
Inside was only Conna. Upon seeing Kael, she eagerly closed the compartnt door.
Kael eyed her warily and instinctively stepped back two steps, "What do you want!"
"There’s sothing I want to tell you."
Conna didn’t notice Kael’s small reaction. After closing the door, she looked excited as she said, "Did you know, Professor Snape is actually my relative!"
"Uh, I know."
"I couldn’t believe it before, but... huh?" Conna’s expression froze, disbelief all over her face, "You, you knew?!"
"Yeah." Kael laughed, "I also know that Professor Snape’s mother’s last na is Prince."
Conna went into a dazed state all of a sudden.
Wait, this scenario is completely different from what she imagined.
Kael shouldn’t be surprised, shocked? But...
Conna opened her mouth and dryly asked, "How, how did you know?"
"My dad told ." Kael placed the box on the luggage rack, "He was classmates with Professor Snape, just happens to know so things."
This piece of information was indeed told to him by Chris, when he ca to the school right before the break.
Originally, Kael had just asked tentatively, but Chris ended up knowing.
Conna wrinkled her brow and said, "Then why didn’t you tell
before?"
"Would you have believed
if I told you?" Kael asked back.
Conna hesitated for a mont, then dejectedly shook her head. Before that sumr incident, she really wouldn’t have believed sothing so outrageous.
"By the way..." Suddenly rembering sothing, Conna asked suspiciously, "Was it also because of you that Professor Snape ca to find ?"
Kael did not deny it.
"Tidying up sses for others after accepting their money, so, did those troubleso issues get resolved?"
The letter Kael wrote on the first day of vacation was sent to Snape, and the content was simple, it just described Conna’s recent situation.
Although he slightly exaggerated so parts by a small fraction, overall, it was about right.
"Yeah, they’re resolved." Conna glanced at Kael deeply.
"On the second day of vacation, Professor Snape ca to my house, revealed his identity, and took
to Gringotts."
In the midst of taking out snacks, Kael paused and asked, "What did he take you to Gringotts for?"
Conna said, "He had the goblins reclaim my family’s previous Vault and transferred everything inside to his Vault."
"Wait a minute... you said Snape moved all your family’s stuff into his Vault?"
The more Kael listened, the less right it sounded. What kind of tricky move was this by Snape?
Afraid soone else would take it, so he took it all himself first?
Is there any difference between this and other people?!
Sensing Kael’s aning, Conna quickly explained, "He doesn’t want to keep it for himself, just safeguarding it for ."
"I’ve heard that too many tis..." Kael said quietly, "Anyone who believes that is a fool."
"It’s true." Conna said seriously, "In fact, there wasn’t much money left in my family’s previous Vault; the only thing of value was probably our land deed.
But Professor Snape’s Vault has piles of Galleons, he has no reason to scam ."
"Let’s hope so..." Kael sighed and said, "Apart from that, did he do anything else?"
"He bought the house next to ours, and spent the whole sumr living there."
Talking about this, Conna couldn’t help but reveal a smile, "During these two months, everyone who ca to my house was chased away by him."
"Snape bought a house next to yours?" Kael’s mouth twitched.
Alright, he admitted that his earlier thoughts were a bit dirty.
