Chapter 665: Harry, in Pain but Happy
Kyle didn't see Umbridge again for the rest of the holiday, as though she were deliberately avoiding him.
This suited Kyle perfectly—he had no desire to deal with her during the break.
Others, however, weren't as fortunate. Around the castle, Kyle frequently overheard complaints from students and staff about being reprimanded by Umbridge over trivial matters.
She was like an amplified version of Filch, spreading misery and frustration throughout the castle.
On the last evening of the holidays, when the Hogwarts Express brought back students returning from their Christmas break, the castle sprang back to life.
Fred and George Weasley quickly became the center of attention in the Great Hall. They conjured a platform about the height of a table and climbed onto it to showcase their latest product from Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes.
The item was a peculiar pointed hat adorned with pink feathers. It looked absurd at first glance, but when Fred placed it on his head, the hat—and his head—vanished entirely.
The display provoked gasps and cheers, followed by roaring laughter that echoed through the Hall.
Kyle, intrigued, watched closely. Not many products could create true invisibility.
At first, he assumed the Weasleys had used Demiguise fur, a common material for invisibility cloaks. But he quickly dismissed the idea when George loudly announced that the hats were priced at just two Galleons each.
No way you could get that much Demiguise fur for two Galleons, Kyle thought. It didn't add up.
