The next day, when Jon yawned and appeared in the cafeteria, Stephen and the other two were no longer surprised.
They only found out that Jon went out at night when they woke Jon up one morning.
After a few times of waiting, they found out that Jon really did often sneak out at night. At first, Stephen and the others were surprised. After all, Hufflepuff's students didn't have the tradition of visiting the castle at night. At first, they wanted to go out with Jon.
However, they were self-aware. After half a day when Jon asked them to learn the Illusion Spell, they gave up on the idea.
Now, they had already started to give Jon breakfast in the morning since he didn't come back at night. This way, Jon could rest a little more.
"Where did you go yesterday? I saw that your clothes in the basket were wet this morning."
The four of them habitually hid in an unnoticed corner of the cafeteria and whispered to each other.
"Would you believe me if I said I went out of school?"
"Really? We want to go too! "
When Fran said this, the little freckles on her face jumped. It was obvious that she didn't mean it, so Jon rolled his eyes. "As long as you learn the Illusion Spell as soon as possible, I'll take you to Hogsmeade Village."
"You really went?!"
Scully had long heard of Hogsmeade Village, but it was a pity that first year students couldn't go, so his dream hadn't come true yet.
"Why would I lie to you?"
Stephen considerately stuffed a sandwich in Jon's hand, then said in a clear tone, "It doesn't matter if he goes or not, the important thing is that we can't go."
He was usually closer to Jon, so he could see through Jon's train of thought. Moreover, they had long been left far behind by Jon on the path of learning.
Although he didn't know why Jon was so hardworking.
They also knew that Jon had a cousin in Ravenclaw, but what they knew about Jon's learning range was much higher than that of the first years.
At least, they couldn't catch up.
"You're the one who didn't work hard."
A sandwich was quickly devoured by the hungry Jon, so Jon's mouth was once again free to speak. "Do you believe that if I were to spread this knowledge to the students of our academy, there would definitely be a lot of people who would be able to finish learning this in advance?"
Scully was a man of few words, but once he did, it was the key. "The prerequisite is that you can spread the news and not be grounded by the professors."
Jon seriously considered this question.
"If it's a student club, the professors shouldn't restrict it too much."
Jon recalled the plot of the original novel. That Dumbledore's Army wasn't really restricted by the professors. As long as he found two senior students, it shouldn't be difficult for them to start a student society that didn't violate the school's rules and was purely focused on academic research.
After all, Hogwarts did not need to submit any applications.
Jon kept this matter in mind and planned to find some time to ask Professor Sprout about it.
If he could really make an academic club, he would have a source for his "beyond the syllabus" curse.
When Stephen and the other two saw that Jon had started to think, they shut their mouths and focused on eating. When Jon started to think, it meant that something was going to happen. Generally, when something started to happen to Jon, the three roommates would generally get first-hand news. Of course, this was followed by Jon's feasibility test.
"I feel like I just got into trouble," Scully said gloomily.
Scully said gloomily, "Judging from his expression, he's thinking about something big."
"What big deal? Jon's big deal generally doesn't affect us."
Farren comforted him, although he wasn't very confident in his own heart.
In contrast, Stephen was much calmer. In any case, they had firmly held onto Jon's thigh in terms of learning. Usually, in the academy, other students had already grouped them together. Since this situation had already happened, there was no other way. Anyway, no matter what Jon did, they were the ones who would be affected.
Since they were always affected, what was there to worry about?
If Jon knew Stephen's thoughts, he would inevitably have a new impression of him. This kind of mentality of going with the flow was not something that many adults could have.
After breakfast, classes began. At the beginning of October, the freshmen's classes also began to become intense. After the initial adaptation period, it was the intense learning rhythm of Hogwarts.
Jon naturally adapted to this learning rhythm very well. His three roommates also maintained a learning ability similar to the course progress with his help and influence. Although they could not learn the Phantom Spell, they still learned some of the simple curses revised by Helga.
Therefore, the four of them had an interesting learning life in October.
The only problem was that Jon had never found a suitable opportunity to talk to Professor Sprout about the club.
Of course, the main reason was that his schedule was too tight and he had no free time.
God knows why there was so much homework in the first year classes.
Before Halloween, the atmosphere in the school began to become cheerful. The teachers no longer gave a lot of homework. Jon finally found a chance to find Professor Sprout.
Fortunately, Professor Sprout happened to be taking care of a herb in the greenhouse that looked like it was about to wither.
"Professor, can I come in?"
Jon looked at Professor Sprout who was busy in the greenhouse and gently knocked on the door.
Professor Sprout did not seem to hear him. Jon slightly louder this time. It was not allowed to be loud in the greenhouse, otherwise, it would attract some strange plants. After all, it was still very dangerous here.
Fortunately, this time he finally attracted Professor Sprout's attention.
Seeing that it was Jon who was looking for her, Professor Sprout's round face showed a trace of a smile.
Dean Hufflepuff's voice was very gentle. She took out a pair of earplugs from the pocket of her patched clothes and handed them to Jon who was at the door. "Of course, but you have to wear this first."
Jon did not want to go in at once. When he took the earplugs, he had already guessed what kind of seedling was in the greenhouse. Even if it was a withered Mandrake, it was not something that Jon could resist.
This thing was too dangerous.
However, since Professor Sprout had asked him to go in, there should be no danger inside … right?
