A Certain Magical Hogwarts

Chapter 15 Robin the Thief

The curtains were drawn inside the carriage, the thick fabric blocking out the sunlight and making the room extremely dark. The five people sat around the table, discussing their evil plan.

"First, we need to find a stranger to knock on the door of the Slytherin carriage. If it's us, they'll definitely be on guard."

As he spoke, George turned his gaze to William.

"Since you're the only freshman here, you definitely won't be noticed by the other party."

“That’s true.” William nodded, resting his chin on his hand, then raised an eyebrow and said, “But… as the only student who knocked on the door, they’ll definitely come after me.”

"Unless I finish this job and go home, you won't have a good life from now on."

"Isn't that great? It can add a little bit of fun to your boring college life," Fred said, patting William on the shoulder to comfort him.

George continued, "You can come to Gryffindor; Professor McGonagall will definitely protect you."

William rolled his eyes. "You're all idiots!"

"What do we do next?" Lee Jordan asked.

"Next, I'll use this to throw fire smoke bombs into the carriage and create chaos," George said, as a gun-shaped catapult appeared in his hand.

This is something they modified to drive away goblins.

On George's right hand is a small white ball, a product purchased from the Bouncing and Playing Magical Joke Shop. When it is hit violently, it emits a lot of white smoke, making it look like it's on fire from a distance.

The twin brothers had originally planned to throw the pyrotechnics, but they were afraid that the flames would pierce the top of the train because they were too powerful.

Although the scene was tense and exciting, like a scene from a blockbuster movie, their family couldn't afford the train repair costs.

Although the Weasley brothers enjoyed playing pranks, they always kept the consequences within acceptable limits and avoided causing trouble for their family.

"Is that all the plan?" Cedric asked happily.

He's a good kid, and he wouldn't feel too guilty if it were just these pranks.

But Cedric is going to be disappointed.

Fred smiled smugly like a great hero, reached into his pants and fumbled around for a moment, then pulled out a big, hairy, dark thing!

With black fur, a flat, wide snout, a short, blunt, thick tail, and webbed feet, it is slightly larger than a palm and looks somewhat like a hybrid of a mole and a platypus.

"This is... a Niffler?" William asked in surprise.

He had read about these magical creatures in the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".

"That's right!" George grinned and said, "The baby is only four months old, but he's so naughty. He stole a lot of Naughty toys from me and Fred this summer."

However, thanks to it, my dad also found the secret stash of money he had hidden away a few years ago!

William was certain that the twins had not handed the money over to Mr. and Mrs. Weasley.

But what he wanted to know more about was where Fred had hidden the thing in his pants... Hiding a sniffler in his crotch, wasn't he afraid it would bite?

Lee Jordan was so envious he was practically drooling. He rubbed his hands together excitedly and asked, "Where did you guys get your hands on that?"

“A few months ago, George and I found a female Niffler in the Forbidden Forest with an injured leg, and then we handed her over to Hagrid,” Fred replied.

"That mother Niffler gave birth to eight baby Nifflers, and this one liked to bite the other brothers, so Hagrid gave it to us."

"Hey, I have to say, not bad adventure! But you went into the Forbidden Forest without telling me!" Lee Jordan complained.

While the group was talking, the Niffler broke free from Fred's hand and casually stuffed the Nate from his pocket into its own belly pouch.

The Niffler's pouch looks small from the outside, but it actually has a lot of space inside, enough to store a lot of things, as if it has been enchanted with a seamless stretching spell.

After emptying Fred's pockets, the Niffler tried to steal Gallon from William, but the next second it froze – it spotted Boba Tea dozing in the sun!

Under the sunlight, its orange fur shimmered!

What a huge lump of... gold!

A hint of excitement flashed in Sniff's eyes, and with her short legs, she ran towards Boba Tea as if she were flying.

Its tiny paws gripped the slender tail of the tea tree, trying to drag it little by little into its pouch.

Bobo Tea was startled. It meowed and suddenly stood up.

Bobo Tea also disliked that disobedient tail, but when it comes to tails, you have to bite them yourself!

It stared with its blue pupils at that wretched, smelly...rat...mole...duck?

Regardless of what it was, Bobocha's paw shot out quickly, slapping the Niffler's head hard and sending it flying.

With a graceful slide, Niffler bumped into the little white rabbit in Qiu's hand.

Can this be tolerated?

That orange cat bullied me, fine, but you, a mouse at the bottom of the food chain, dared to bump into me?

The little white rabbit straightened up, its left paw on its hip, its right hand pointing at Sniff, and it was making squeaking noises as it angrily cursed.

"..."

Everyone was speechless; it seemed he was a bully who preyed on the weak!

But the Niffler isn't someone you can easily bully; it's a magical creature, too.

George quickly reached out, grabbed the tuft of hair on the Sniff's head, and pulled it back.

Fred laughed, "That's it, little guy. But even though it steals and is mischievous, it's still a great little fellow!"

George nodded in agreement.

"We'll rely on this little guy today. Once the smoke bomb explodes, we'll throw it into the Slytherin carriage."

"So how do we get him out?" Lee Jordan asked.

With its greedy nature, the Niffler probably won't come back until it has stolen the entire train.

William said, "That's simple. Nifflers like bright things, and the brighter the light, the stronger the attraction. So, we need a mirror... Does anyone have a mirror?"

The group turned their gaze to the only girl in the carriage—Qiu Zhang.

Qiu raised an eyebrow, took out a round mirror with carved patterns from her pocket, and waved her hand, making a pleasant tinkling sound as the silver bracelet on her wrist jingled.

Qiu smiled slyly and asked, "Want it?"

"Sizzling honey candy—four cups!" Although Qiu had never eaten honey candy before, that didn't stop her from making a huge demand to avenge her little rabbit.

Cedric replied decisively, "Agreed!"

Hiss—that beast who values ​​women over friends.

……

……

The carriage in the middle was occupied by Slytherin students.

William, like a lost freshman, walked to the door of a certain carriage.

But he did not knock on the door as George had suggested.

The first rule of doing bad things is to keep your face hidden!

If the Slytherins in the carriage see him, no matter what happens afterward, he will be remembered by those students!

William wasn't afraid, but he wasn't a fool either, and he certainly couldn't take the blame for this.

He took out his wand, tapped it on the doorknob, and whispered, "Open the Alohomora."

The carriage door latch snapped open, and William grabbed the handle, pulled hard, and slid quickly toward the corner.

George, who was hiding on the other side, seized the opportunity and accurately threw the fire smoke bomb into the carriage, and a lot of white smoke hissed out.

A dark figure rushed in; this was the true Robin Hood of the Red Dead Redemption!

Niffler: Wizards, you're surrounded! Pull out your recommendation tickets, or I'll steal all the Galleons from your pockets!!
