As Kyle and Kanna walked toward the castle, they encountered Hagrid, who was carrying fir trees into the castle, as they passed through the grounds.

"You're done with class?" Hagrid poked his head out from behind a branch and said with a smile, "Go check out the Great Hall, it's absolutely wonderful."

"There's no rush." Kyle walked over to him, glanced at the fir tree, and asked, "Are there any more? We can help you move them."

"Thanks, but this is the last one." Hagrid winked at Kyle and said, "I haven't forgotten Christmas this year."

"Forgot Christmas?" Kanna asked, puzzled. "How could you forget Christmas... Um, I mean, the Great Hall was decorated so beautifully last year."

I see those Christmas trees, twelve in total, exactly the same as the one you're holding now."

"Yes, for some reason... it was really bad," Hagrid stammered. "But thankfully Kyle helped, and we finally made it in time."

Hagrid was too embarrassed to talk about losing his memory, and he didn't want too many people to know about this dark history, so he gave a vague answer and brushed it off.

Fortunately, Kanna didn't ask any more questions.

The group walked into the castle together, but before they had taken two steps, Hagrid suddenly stopped.

Just as Kyle was wondering what was going on, he suddenly heard Harry and Ron's voices coming from ahead.

"Hey, Hagrid, need any help?"

"Where are you going to take this big tree?"

"No, I can manage. Thank you, Ron." Hagrid turned his head and poked his head out from between the branches.

"Could you please move aside and get out of the way?" Malfoy's cold, drawn-out voice came from behind them. "Are you trying to earn some pocket money, Weasley? Let me think... you probably hope you'll be guarding the hunting grounds after graduating from Hogwarts, don't you?"

Ron's face flushed red instantly. He clenched his fists, turned around angrily, and seemed to want to punch Malfoy's smug face.

Crabbe and Goyle took two steps forward.

Malfoy wasn't afraid at all; on the contrary, he was even happier. But just as he was about to say something more...

"I think you should apologize to Ron, Draco. Also, don't drag out your words; it makes you sound mean."

"Who... dares to interfere in my affairs!"

Malfoy frowned, glancing disapprovingly behind Hagrid.

He wanted to see who dared to make him apologize to Weasley... and even call him mean-spirited in front of Harry Potter?

He learned to draw out his words from Professor Snape; to say he's mean is to say Professor Snape is mean!

Have you had enough of living?

"Crabbe, Goyle, give me..."

But when Malfoy saw who was speaking, he suddenly froze, his tone abruptly changing, "... give some snacks to our friend Kyle."

He never expected Kyle to be here, and that girl... her name seemed to be Kanna Prince.

Malfoy remembered that a week earlier, Marcus of the Quidditch team had been taken away and put into solitary confinement by Professor Snape on the spot for saying during dinner that she was Kyle's sidekick.

The Flobberworm had been dealt with in the dungeon for three days

Actually, Malfoy wasn't entirely sure if the confinement was related to this girl, so he went to inquire about it.

It was only after asking that I learned that Professor Snape actually gave this Hufflepuff girl extra points in every class.

For this reason alone, it's always better to be cautious.

Beside them, Crabbe and Goyle had already rolled up their sleeves, but after hearing the second half of the sentence, they suddenly froze and quickly covered their pockets.

"No more snacks, Draco."

"Yes, yes, we've all finished eating."

"You guys..." Malfoy was furious.

Most of the fancy candies his father sent ended up in Crabbe and Goyle's pockets, and now they're saying they're gone?

And their habit of clutching their pockets—do they really think everyone else is stupid?

"Hurry up and take it out..."

Feeling humiliated in front of others, Malfoy said with great dissatisfaction, "Otherwise, I won't give it to you next time."

Crabbe and Goyle, with long faces, reluctantly took out a piece of candy each and handed it over with trembling hands.

"You..."

Malfoy's stinginess made his face even uglier. He stepped forward, grabbed a handful of candy from each of their pockets, and stuffed it into Kyle's hand.

Crabbe and Goyle stood there frozen, mouths agape, eyes lifeless, as if petrified.

The moment Malfoy took the candy, they felt like the sky had fallen.

"Thank you, Draco..."

Kyle said with a smile, and then took what Crabbe and Goyle were holding as well.

"Thank you too, Crabbe, Goyle... Oh, Screaming Mint, I've been craving them lately."

"Oh!" Crabbe cried out, nearly fainting.

As for Goyle... he had already passed out when Kyle took his last candy.

Malfoy ignored his two disgraceful subordinates, straightened his clothes, and stepped forward with a smile, saying, "It's a pleasure to see you here, Kyle."

Oh, and Miss Prince, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Draco Malfoy from Slytherin."

"Hello," Kanna greeted, then fell silent.

She's always been like this with strangers.

"Actually, I was just about to come find you, Draco." Kyle stepped forward and took out a serpentine bracelet that was entirely crystal clear and glowed with a faint green light.

"This is what you asked for before. I took the liberty of engraving the Malfoy family crest on it. What do you think? If you're not satisfied, I can make some changes."

"Satisfied... of course I'm satisfied!"

Malfoy had originally just wanted to get rid of Kyle as soon as possible, but after seeing what Kyle was holding, he immediately forgot about Harry.

The bracelet was even more beautiful, elegant, and exquisite than he had imagined, especially the Malfoy family crest on the snake; the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

"How much for an extra family crest? I'll pay you right now."

"No need for Draco, the 100 Galleon you gave me before is enough," Kyle said with a smile. "As a long-time customer, this is a bonus."

"Thank you... this is wonderful!"

"Why don't we go to the court and see how it goes?" Kyle said with a smile.

"Ah, right, right..." Malfoy finally realized what was happening, and without paying any attention to Crabbe and Goyle, he hurriedly ran towards the Quidditch Pitch.

It wasn't until he left the castle that the others came to their senses.

"Kyle ...you're actually so close to Malfoy ..." Ron said incredulously, "He's a Slytherin, after all."

Thank you so much to Wheel of Fortune Who Loves Pranks" for the 500 Qidian coins! (Very loudly)
