"Lester! Lester! Lester!"

The entire audience of Slytherin was chanting Lester's name.

[Ding! Quest complete! Lead the Slytherin Quidditch Team to victory and receive the reward ' Enhanced Rocket Crossbow Blueprint ']

"Beautiful!" Lester, piloting his flying broom, couldn't help but pump his fist. With it, it was time for him to enter the Wizarding World's business circle.

At the High Table, Professor Snape found the nose and eyes to be neither nose nor eyes.

Since Lester came to Slytherin, Slytherin's House Points have far surpassed those of the other three houses.

Now that they've won the Quidditch Match, Slytherin's victory is practically a done deal.

Back in the common room, the Slytherin celebrated their hard-won victory once again.

A few weeks later, the final exams, which all the young wizards both looked forward to and feared, finally arrived.

While the students of the other three houses were filled with fear, the Slytherin students stood tall and showed no fear whatsoever.

After three weeks of grueling practice, they are now ruthless test-taking machines.

For the final exam in Charms, Flitwick's assessment was simple. "Levitation Charm. Use the Levitation Charm to make a feather float in the air. I will grade you based on the trajectory of the feather."

The Levitation Charm was child's play for Lester. After simply controlling the feather to dance a tango in the air, Lester easily obtained an O.

The Transfiguration test was very simple; all you had to do was turn a matchstick into a needle. The more beautiful the pattern on the needle, the higher your score.

Using his memories from his past life, Lester managed to carve an image of two dragons playing with a pearl onto a needle, which amazed Professor McGonagall.

Herbology was a subject Lester was completely unfamiliar with; he only managed to get an A, without failing.

During Potions, Snape decisively gave Lester special treatment, and after completing a simple Living Death Potion, Snape gave Lester an O.

As for Defense Against the Dark Arts, Quirrell has become increasingly strict about it since the Forbidden Forest incident. Even the final exam is simply a written test for the students.

And so, the final exams at Hogwarts came to an end, and the young wizards welcomed their long-awaited holiday.

Harry and Ron Weasley, those two unlucky kids, finally remembered their mission: to stop Snape from stealing the Philosopher's Stone.

"Harry, are we really going today?" Ron Weasley asked anxiously, pacing back and forth.

Harry nodded seriously. "Of course, Snape wants to steal Headmaster Dumbledore's Philosopher's Stone, and we must stop him."

"Then perhaps we should call Hermione," Ron Weasley said. "She knows a lot of spells; they should come in handy."

"Of course, I'll go find her right now."

A few minutes later, Harry, Ron Weasley, Hermione successfully reunited in the common room.

Just then, Neville, who was going out, saw the three of them and asked curiously, "What are you three rushing off to?"

"None of your business!" Ron Weasley retorted without any politeness.

Neville has been making headlines lately, which makes Ron Weasley very jealous. How come a guy whose parents are both crazy is doing so well?

Neville didn't say anything, just silently looked at Ron Weasley for a few seconds, then quickly walked out of the lounge.

After Neville left, Harry, Harry, and Neville quickly set off for the right-hand corridor on the fourth floor.

The three hurried individuals didn't notice that Neville, as soon as he stepped out, immediately ran towards the Slytherin Common Room.

In the Slytherin Common Room, Neville was brought in by Malfoy, and many of the little snakes cast hateful and confused glances at him.

Only a few Slytherin, including Malfoy, knew about the charade Malfoy had put on with Neville.

To others, Neville was Gryffindor's latest double red flower, so naturally they disliked Neville intensely.

If Neville hadn't come to see Lester, they would have already taught Neville a lesson.

"Sit!" Lester gestured to the chair in front of him and said gently.

Neville seemed a little nervous. He sat down for only a few seconds before saying, "Lycoon, it seems Harry and Ron Weasley have gone out. They must have gone to the fourth floor."

Lester's eyes lit up; Harry had finally made his move.

"Malfoy, go and get everyone in Slytherin to gather in the fourth-floor corridor," Lester ordered.

Then, Lester took out a Memory Stone and handed it to Neville, saying, "This is Memory Stone. Malfoy and I will go into that room with you in a bit."

"Once you're inside the room, activate the Memory Stone and make sure you record everything that happens inside."

"At that time, what you filmed will be broadcast live outside, so that everyone can see your amazing feat."

Neville took the Memory Stone, nodding as if he understood but not quite. He didn't understand anything about broadcasting or recording, but all he needed to do was complete Lester's orders.

Seeing that Neville still seemed a little nervous, Lester calmly said, "Don't worry, that room isn't as dangerous as Headmaster Dumbledore described."

"Besides, with me with you, you'll definitely be fine."

Neville nodded gratefully.

With a veteran like Lester leading the team, it seems like I can just sit back and wait to win.

On the fourth floor, a group of Slytherin dressed in green robes were holding up signs that read "Go Slytherin!" and were standing or sitting in the lobby.

This group of over a hundred people, gathered in the hall, had already attracted a lot of attention, and some inquisitive young wizards couldn't help but step forward to ask questions.

"Hey kids, what are you doing?" The young Hufflepuff wizard was a little nervous, but his gossipy nature overcame his fear.

The Slytherin student smiled at him and said gently, "Neville from Gryffindor House has approached Lester and Malfoy from our house, saying they want to compete in an adventure in that mysterious room on the fourth floor."

"Look, there's a big screen over there. The footage will start appearing soon. Brother Lai said it's called a live stream."

"Explore a room that brings death?" The Hufflepuff shuddered in surprise, but his interest was immediately piqued.

"Um... um, may I look around from here?" the Hufflepuff expectantly. "I can stand a little further away, not where you are."

To everyone's surprise, the Slytherin was not only not unhappy, but also very friendly. "Of course, wait a moment, I'll go get you that little stool."

And so, the Hufflepuff who was passing by sat down in a daze, with a bag of popcorn being forced into his hand.
