The next day, Cedric, holding the leave slip Kayson had given him, went to Diagon Alley overnight and ordered a large number of clothes with capes, because an opening behind the cape could conceal his mechanical arm to a certain extent, preventing him from ruining a set of clothes every time he used it.
The period that followed was very peaceful, basically as calm as other school years without such large-scale events.
Of course, The Daily Prophet still contributed a little ripple to the uneventful time.
Although the words inside didn't feel like Rita Skeeter at all, because they didn't spread rumors or say anything unfounded.
However, the group photo within became a topic of conversation in every pub in the England magic world.
After all, not everyone could plant a reporter from The Daily Prophet into the ground, although they all had the desire to, whether they had the ability was another matter.
Oh, no, there was still a little bit of interesting news, like Hagrid.
He followed Dumbledore's advice to appropriately show his value, and then he directly chose...
To reveal to Madame Maxime the news she already knew, such as the first task of the Triwizard Tournament.
Every Principal knew it was Dragons, but Hagrid still thought it was a Hogwarts secret. After getting Dumbledore's permission, he boldly invited Madame Maxime.
Cedric also told Kayson that besides inviting Madame Maxime, Hagrid also invited Harry, and it was said that Harry also invited him.
In the end, Hagrid somehow said something taboo about Madame Maxime, and the two parted ways unhappily, but Harry still told Cedric the task.
"So our first task is to defeat a Dragon?" he asked Kayson, looking bewildered.
"Not quite, it's just to steal an egg right under the nose of a female Dragon, isn't that simple?" Kayson said mischievously.
"I think it would be better to just let us directly kill the Dragon," Cedric said, rolling his eyes.
"Mm-hmm, the difference between the two is actually not that big... Someone's here now, guess who it is?" Kayson said halfway, suddenly looking at the crystal ball on the office desk, and changed his words.
"Uh... Hagrid?" Cedric said.
Soon, Hagrid looked at the figure approaching: "Mm-hmm, you guessed correctly."
Not long after, Hagrid came to Kayson with a bitter face. He first nodded to Cedric, then sat down next to him.
The latter instantly felt as if he, a small planet, had been captured by the gravity of a larger celestial body, and in the face of immense gravity, he inevitably moved towards the larger celestial body.
Well, in reality, Hagrid just made a huge dent in the sofa.
"Let me guess, your date failed?" Kayson asked.
"Huh? How did you know?" Hagrid said in surprise.
Kayson glanced at the sweating Cedric, then changed the subject: "Dumbledore told me."
"Well. Then do you know why?" Hagrid said tearfully.
"I don't know that," Kayson shook his head.
"Because I said something wrong. I felt Madame Maxime was so tall, so I asked her if she had Giant blood," Hagrid explained.
"Clearly, she didn't want to be told that," Kayson said, pouring Hagrid a drink.
"Mm, she said she just had a large frame, and then we parted unhappily, what should I do?"
"Just ask her out again and apologize, wouldn't that be fine?" Kayson said as if it were obvious.
"She'll come?" Hagrid asked doubtfully.
"At midnight, if she had no interest in you at all, wouldn't it be better for her to sleep in her carriage? Is it fun to come out and go stargazing with you in the Forbidden Forest?" Kayson said, rolling his eyes.
"But last time I asked her out, I used the first task of the Triwizard Tournament as an excuse," Hagrid said.
"Oh, you mean those Dragons? What was her reaction when she saw the Dragons?" Kayson asked.
"She was very excited, very grateful to me, and even held my hand for a moment," Hagrid said, a little embarrassed.
Kayson clapped his hand hard: "No problem then, Madame Maxime really likes you!"
Hagrid asked confusedly: "Ah?"
"She already knew the first task was Dragons, but she still kept your appointment in the middle of the night, and when she saw the Dragons, she even took your feelings into consideration, pretending to be very excited. Doesn't that explain the problem?" Kayson said with certainty.
"Uh... just because she agreed to my request for a night date? Is it that simple?" Hagrid was a bit distrustful.
"Of course, if you don't believe me, ask Cedric. If he invited a strange girl out for a midnight date, would they agree?"
"I agree." Peltia, who was just strolling in the alchemy office, was caught by Kayson, and then she looked at Cedric, who was inviting her, and quickly agreed.
Hagrid: "..."
Cedric: "....."
"This is a modeling issue, I'll find one that's not so finely modeled." Kayson awkwardly used Ender Teleportation to leave, then he brought Ron over.
"Try inviting a girl out for a date at midnight," he whispered into Ron's ear.
"Uh... Where's the girl?" Ron looked at Hermione, who had been brought over with him, and looked at Kayson, a bit confused.
"... Damn idiot!" Kayson sent Ron away with a dark face, then he used another matching method, having Cedric date Hermione, at least Hermione wasn't looks-oriented.
As expected, Hermione rejected Cedric's request.
"Look, it's like this. If a girl doesn't like you, she won't agree to your invitation, especially in the middle of the night," Kayson looked back at Hagrid.
"But the first little Witch...."
"That's an uncontrollable variable, we need to ignore it when doing experiments," Kayson said, forcing himself.
"Oh... I pretty much understand," Hagrid nodded: "You mean, Madame Maxime also likes me, or at least doesn't dislike me, and now my only task is to find another reason to invite her out and apologize to her."
Kayson nodded, on the verge of tears: "You finally understood!"
