As Fred and George entered their dormitory and pushed open the door, Chen Yu's eyes were truly opened.
He had seen messy rooms before, but never one as messy as their dormitory.
It wasn't just messy; it was dangerous.
Fred and George were indeed the biggest point-deducters in Gryffindor, besides Harry; they dared to keep anything in their dormitory.
“Chen Yu, watch your step. Don't touch our stuff. Lift your foot slowly, lift your left foot, avoid the dungbomb I dropped on the floor, then lift your right foot, don't step on my Headless Hat, then lift your left foot, don't touch my Punching Telescope, tilt your head this way, avoid my roommate's sock that's been hanging there for a month without being washed.”
Especially the last one; he turned his head sharply, and the stiff sock made Chen Yu's head buzz.
He quickly held his breath. Just those two whiffs made Chen Yu wonder if he would get a fungal lung infection.
Listening to Fred's directions, Chen Yu didn't even dare to move forward, and couldn't help but complain, “Your dormitory is quite messy, isn't it? Birds of a feather flock together indeed.”
He even regretted entering their dormitory. Thinking about it, it made sense: anyone who could share a dormitory with Fred and George was either extremely kind-hearted or just as fond of pranks as they were.
A normal person would become abnormal after spending three days in the same room with Fred and George.
“Since you’re already here, why give up halfway?”
“Follow me and George, walk in our footsteps. We're very familiar with this. It's actually very easy to get through. Watch closely, hop forward, hop this way, be careful not to touch the Portable Swamp. That's for thieves. If it's knocked over, it'll create a swamp, and everyone will fall in.”
Watching Fred and George skillfully jump over the various strange props placed at the dormitory entrance, Chen Yu thought that if Dumbledore had invited these two “Living Yama Kings” to design the challenges, anyone attempting them would surely get “stained.”
The strange props here were even more lively than a battlefield.
Chen Yu immediately used Bukū-jutsu, his feet not touching the ground, to bypass these miscellaneous magical items before landing.
“This ability to fly without relying on tools? It looks so cool!”
Fred and George whistled, cheering for Chen Yu's unscathed passage.
Chen Yu was there to inspect the goods, not to go through an obstacle course, so he went straight to the point and asked Fred, “Where are the items?”
Fred and George quickly jumped over the various obstacles at the door and headed straight for their beds.
At this moment, a wooden box covered with a cloth next to Fred’s bed caught Chen Yu’s attention.
Mainly because this wooden box was not only trembling slightly, but also occasionally made “hmm hmm” or “puff puff” sounds.
Fred and George pulled out three suitcases from under their beds.
Seeing that Chen Yu was interested in the wooden box by his bed, he immediately lifted the cloth covering it, revealing several round, fluffy magical creatures inside the box.
“Puffskeins?”
Chen Yu knew these fluffy magical creatures, scavengers that were easy to keep. They were XX-level magical creatures that could be fed leftovers.
Their docile temperament made them very popular among Little Wizards, and they were favorite pets for many Little Wizards.
George pointed to a smaller Puffskein next to it and said, “Look at that one next to it, look at that one next to it! That smaller one is what we want you to see!”
Following George’s hand, Chen Yu saw an even smaller Puffskein hiding beside a larger one: “A Puffskein cub?”
“No, it’s not a Puffskein cub. It’s a mini Puffskein carefully bred by Fred and me. We plan to name this new species Mini Moyu or Mini Fat Ball.”
“This will be the flagship product of our future prank joke shop. We specifically investigated, and many female Little Wizards said that fluffy Puffskeins are very cute, but their size is still a bit too big. They hope Puffskeins can be smaller, which would make them even cuter. So, Fred and I diligently researched and studied, and finally bred the first generation of mini Puffskeins. Next, we will continue our experiments to make them even smaller.”
“So, these Puffskeins aren't actually mini Puffskeins that you shrunk from normal Puffskeins using a shrinking spell?”
“Heavens, how could we do something so evil? That’s terrifying, isn’t it? We swear on the Weasley family name that these Mini Moyu are definitely natural products obtained through cross-breeding, and absolutely not made smaller with a spell!”
Well, compared to shrinking Puffskeins with a spell, Chen Yu wondered if keeping them in cages for cross-breeding experiments was even more cruel?
However, these two brothers were indeed geniuses. Whether it was in making magical props or breeding magical creatures, they could be considered genius-level individuals.
It was a pity that the Moyu eggs in the Serenitea Pot hadn't hatched yet. Otherwise, he could have shown them to Fred and George and let them see what a pufferfish-like Moyu was.
A Moyu with an excellent core texture that would sting your hand when it got angry!
“We'll talk about the Puffskeins later. For now, let me see how much internal space the suitcases have.”
Opening the suitcase, which had been enchanted with an Undetectable Extension Charm, he could see a relatively spacious room inside through the case.
There would definitely be no problem throwing thirty or forty Mark series Iron Man Armors into this internal space.
Anyway, the user was Tony, and this size of space should be enough for him.
As for Pepper and Ethan, their opinions weren't important.
Fred introduced from the side, “This suitcase was made according to this year’s most popular suitcase style, but the materials used are absolutely particular, and the quality is definitely guaranteed. The Undetectable Extension Charm fixed inside will only expire after more than 100 years. The outer leather case is made of dragon hide (wyvern hide), which is waterproof, fireproof, electric-proof, and impact-resistant. The quality is absolutely top-notch!”
A suitcase made of dragon hide?
Can be used for over 100 years?
And it's waterproof, fireproof, electric-proof, and impact-resistant?
Then Tony passing it down for two or three generations should be no problem.
Chen Yu only checked the size of the suitcase's internal space. As for the materials used to make the suitcase, he couldn't figure out much in a short time, but it felt similar to the dragon hide gloves he bought in Diagon Alley.
So, he put the three suitcases, which had the Undetectable Extension Charm fixed, into the Serenitea Pot: “Alright, I trust you Weasleys to get things done. We'll continue to cooperate next time if there's an opportunity!”
Saying that, he prepared to leave Fred and George's dormitory.
“Hey, Chen Yu, don't be in such a hurry to leave after getting the goods. The final payment hasn't been made yet!”
Fred and George immediately blocked Chen Yu, preventing him from trying to run off without paying after getting the goods.
“How much?”
Fred extended his index finger and thumb, forming an ‘eight’ gesture.
“A suitcase enchanted with an Undetectable Extension Charm costs 8 gold bars! You gave 1 gold bar as a deposit, so you still owe 23 gold bars.”
Chen Yu did have that many gold bars in his Serenitea Pot.
Should he pay the final balance for Tony in advance? Or should he go back, ask Tony for the final payment first, and then pay Fred and George?
Considering that Tony wasn't short on this kind of money, Chen Yu generously pulled out gold bars from the Serenitea Pot and placed them in Fred's hand.
Then, he used Bukū-jutsu again to quickly leave their dormitory.
He truly couldn't stand another minute in that cluttered, broken dormitory.
