Chapter 799: The Fishing Plan
"Just say it—what exactly do you mean?"
Fred and George eyed Kyle warily, instinctively edging back until they were leaning against the door.
They knew Kyle too well... Whenever he had that look on his face, it was never anything good.
Feeling the doorknob behind them gave them some reassurance. This spot was perfect—right by the exit. If things went south, they could bolt out the door at any time.
"Here’s the thing."
Kyle chose his words carefully. "The Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures has hit a rough patch lately. I saw Cedric today—he’s lost so much weight, could barely walk straight. He looked completely worn out."
"He really needs help. As his friends, you’re not just going to stand by, are you?"
"What about you?" Fred immediately picked up on the problem. "You’re his friend too. Why aren’t you helping?"
"To be honest, I want to help," Kyle sighed, spreading his hands. "If You-Know-Who wasn’t making my life difficult, I’d have moved into the Ministry by now."
"That sounds a little sketchy."
"Doesn’t sound true."
