Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

He smiled at the twins and said, "For some reason, I would like to hire you to play a prank on Professor Quirrell."

"There are two requirements."

"First, the frequency of the pranks should be as high as possible. Don't hurt him, but it's best to make him irritated and annoyed."

"Secondly, the prank must be performed in the castle and in public. You cannot perform pranks privately."

Ryan said casually.

That's right.

He couldn't be sure of the authenticity of the letter he had received, but it was at least a clue.

And Ryan knew it well.

If Professor Quirrell is really a dark wizard hiding in the school and is the mastermind behind stealing the Philosopher's Stone.

Then, in the repeated pranks, he may not be hurt, but he will always become irritated and reveal his flaws.

Of course, if Professor Quirrell is innocent...these pranks can be blamed on Godric Gryffindor!

Ryan knew very well that with Professor Quirrell's teaching quality, if his students were replaced by the little wizards who were played pranks by Gryffindor a thousand years ago.

The shenanigans he encountered only intensified.

As for not allowing the Geminis to carry out pranks in private, it is to ensure the safety of both of them.

"cool!"

After hearing this somewhat harsh prank request, the twins looked at each other and said "cool" in unison.

This kind of prank request sounds more challenging to them.

but...

"Ahem...Brother—if we play a prank in public, the chances of us getting caught will be much higher..."

After thinking for a moment, Fred coughed twice and looked at Ryan slyly.

His meaning was obviously simple - brother, you need to pay more!

"The reward is 20 Galleons..."

Ryan said softly.

"every time!"

Thus, he successfully saw a werewolf-like green light flash in the eyes of the two red-haired Weasleys.

"20 Galleons? Each time?"

They found that they seemed to have underestimated Ryan's wealth.

Merlin's burning beard, the price they pay for second-hand textbooks and teaching aids for the new semester is less than 50 Galleons every semester.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

The two brothers answered immediately - they had even forgotten to ask Ryan for the Marauder's Map back.

"George, go prepare the materials!"

"Don't worry, Fred!"

Looking at the two people who left the Room of Requirement howling, Ryan suddenly felt a little worried.

"They won't give Professor Quirrell too much trouble, will they?"

Chapter 75 Gemini: I avoid her edge? (Available on 4/10, please pre-order!)

Over the next week.

What happened in the Forbidden Forest was not made public, the corpse of the eight-eyed giant spider was cleaned up, and everything seemed to have returned to peace.

But Ryan found that he suddenly became very busy.

This Saturday, he attended the Charms Club for the first time, invited by Professor Flitwick - in an empty classroom on the sixth floor.

This is how he met the members of the Spell Club.

Among them were Penelope Clearwater, the fifth-year prefect of Ravenclaw, and Percy Weasley, the fifth-year prefect of Gryffindor and another child of the Weasley family.

He is the third son of the Weasley family and the elder brother of the twins and Ron.

But what surprised Ryan was that this Weasley was not as jumpy as his younger brothers.

Although he was also sorted into Gryffindor, his personality was very rigid, dull and serious to the point of being humorless - which made him hardly seem like a Weasley.

He had expressed some doubts when Professor Flitwick announced that Brian would be a member of the Charms Club.

But he dispelled his doubts after Ryan easily waved his wand, shaping a ball of water into a flock of water birds, and forming clouds flying over the classroom.

"The Bird Charm and the Mist Charm...remarkable! I've heard rumors about you, Elias, but you're certainly better than that - I'm sure you'll be a prefect someday, just like me."

His serious yet slightly self-boasting style of praise made Ryan think that this Weasley might not be very popular.

"In fact, Senior Percy - have you forgotten Ryan's special status... or do you think Headmaster Dumbledore will let him serve as the prefect of four houses at the same time?"

Fortunately, Ryan's acquaintances in the Curse Club helped him take over this slightly awkward conversation.

Cedric Diggory, a third-year Hufflepuff wizard, was also able to join the Charms Club due to his excellent spell skills.

"Oh... yes, I overlooked that, being a prefect of four houses at once - that sounds a bit too much..."

Percy replied hesitantly.

In the end, he chose to skip this topic and began to discuss with Penelope the analysis of a profound spell.

Ryan and Cedric smiled at each other.

"In the kitchen tonight?"

"Walk."

In addition to the Spells Club, Ryan often heard Hermione talk about Hagrid's situation - mainly the situation of the fire dragon 'Norbeta'.

"She's growing very fast and has a very violent temper. Hagrid said that maybe only your cat can scare her... You're right, Ryan. Dragons must not stay in Hogwarts."

This is what Hermione complained to Ryan after she saw that part of her wizard robes was burned.

"Ron has contacted Charlie, and we plan to send it away before the end of the school year - I guess around Christmas... Hagrid is very sad, even more so than he is sad about the Acromantulas being expelled."

"Harry and I hope you can come then..."

Hermione seemed a little worried - the fear she had felt during her last trip to the Forbidden Forest was somewhat profound.

"No problem at all."

After hearing the news, Ryan happily said that he would go there too.

Apart from the matters of the Spell Club and the dragon, Ryan's biggest concern was of course Professor Quirrell.

With Galleon as their power, the Geminis can act very efficiently.

Just on Monday, during Gryffindor's third year Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Quirrell was stung in the face by a swarm of bees while opening a wooden box containing teaching aids.

It is said that someone saw a bee crawl into Quirrell's turban and never came out again.

"That's the Brazilian swollen-face wasp—their sting isn't lethal, but it does make your face swell up... If we had enough Galleons, we could use it to create a swelling potion. That would be fun!"

The twins' explanation made Ryan give them a thumbs up.

In contrast to Ryan, the furious Professor McGonagall raised her wand at them.

"Two days of detention! Report to Filch tonight!"

Two days later, the twins, who had been ordered by Filch to clean the bathroom for two nights, were finally released from confinement.

While Ryan gave them the promised Galleons, he also tried to persuade them.

"Professor McGonagall is very angry now, so you'd better stay out of her sight."

But the twins who got the Galleons were dismissive of it.

"I avoid her?"

Fred counted the Galleons and looked at Ryan: "This is a key step in our prank business-"

George then added, "Get your Galleons ready, and watch!"

So from that day on, the twins never stopped playing pranks on Quirrell.

Ryan had heard of things like "dung balls falling from high altitude," "small swamps accidentally stepped into while walking," and "special water balls that automatically tracked targets."

Especially the first one, it is said that the dung ball fell directly on the back of Professor Quirrell's head, making the pungent garlic smell on the latter less pungent.

But what surprised Ryan was.

Even in this situation, he still didn't find anything abnormal from Quirrell.

He seemed like a submissive punching bag, silently enduring everything.

"Perhaps the letter contained something unreliable?"

But just when Ryan couldn't help but have such thoughts in his mind...

An accident happened.

"Ron's in trouble!"

The day before the Halloween dinner, Hermione and Harry hurriedly found Ryan.

Looking at the panicked expressions on the faces of the two young wizards, Ryan was of course puzzled: "What happened?"

"It's George and Fred...and Percy!"

Harry's face was heavy and he told what happened today with worry.

The situation wasn't complicated - to put it simply, George and Fred had intended to continue playing pranks on Professor Quirrell today.

They told Ron about it, and he invited Harry and Hermione to join in the fun.

They were making arrangements in the corridor on the third floor of the castle, waiting for Professor Quirrell to arrive.

The surprise was Percy Weasley.

He had just finished a Defense Against the Dark Arts class today, and seemed to have heard about Professor Quirrell's recent experience in class.
