When Professor McGonagall pushed the door open, Fish just ran to the door, and the kitten threw itself into her arms without slowing down.
"Fish? Why are you here?"
Skillfully holding the kitten into his arms, Professor McGonagall rubbed his cat's head, asked in surprise, then took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped the white "beard" on Fisher's lips clean.
"I came over with Hermione and the others for a drink, meow."
Fish rubbed against Professor McGonagall's arms twice, then pointed to Hermione and the others in the corner and said.
Following Fish's fingers, Professor McGonagall saw Hermione and the three Weasley boys sitting at a small round table by the window, nodding and giggling at him with a prim expression.
Professor McGonagall nodded slightly as a response to them, and then led Fish into the bar, asking as he walked, "Are you with us, or are you going back with your friends?"
"Fish is going to follow Minerva!"
The kitten chose the mother cat without hesitation.
"This little gentleman is Fish McGonagall, right? No wonder you and Dumbledore both defend him so much, what a lovely boy!"
A pudgy wizard wearing a dark yellow-green bowler hat and a pinstriped cloak rushed up from behind, looked at Fish with a smile and said, and stretched out his hand to touch the kitten head.
Fish quickly dodged the man's fat hand, turned around and dodged to the other side of Professor McGonagall, frowning and staring at him.
|vv)
"Minerva, who is this fat man?"
The little cat didn't like this familiar guy very much. Although the smile on the other person's face was amiable, Fisher vaguely felt that his smile was fake, as if he was wearing a mask.
Seeing Fish's appearance, Cornelius Fudge's expression changed slightly, but he soon returned to his smiling appearance.
Fish's feeling was not wrong, because Fish had injured a large number of dementors before, Fudge ran to Dumbledore to ask for an explanation, but was forced back by the headmaster, who had already begun to have feelings for Dumbledore The dissatisfied Minister of Magic, Henwu and Udi also had a bad impression of Fish who hadn't met yet.
So now, although Fudge is also influenced by animal affinity, he values ??power more now, not so much because he likes Fish, but because he wants to take this special little wizard for his own use.
So he continued to say to Fish in a gentle tone: "My name is Cornelius Fudge, and I am the Minister of the Ministry of Magic. After you graduate, Fish, do you plan to work in the Ministry of Magic?"
"Ministry of Magic?" Fish tilted his head and thought for a while, and then suddenly realized: "Oh¡ª¡ªthat's the bad place that sent the dementors here! Fish should not go there!"
The kitten lowered its ears and bared its teeth at Fudge.
"Sorry, Mr. Fudge," Professor McGonagall moved sideways, completely blocking Fish behind him, and said to Fudge with a stiff expression, "Fish doesn't know much about the Ministry of Magic, so he may be a little bit to you. Misunderstand."
"That's right, Fish did not mean it."
Hagrid and Professor Flitwick on the side also opened their mouths to defend Fish.
In fact, even if they didn't speak up, as a qualified politician, Fudge couldn't show anger towards Fish. He quickly recovered his cheerful look, waved his hand and said, "I also know about Fish's situation." One point, of course it is impossible to blame him."
Seeing that Fudge didn't intend to pursue it, Professor McGonagall should be relieved, but at the same time he didn't forget to educate the children.
"Fish, the Ministry of Magic sent dementors here to protect Harry. It is a place responsible for all kinds of affairs in the wizarding world in England. Mr. Weasley works in it. Also, Mom is coming to Hogg Before Watts took office, he also worked in it."
While explaining to Fish, Professor McGonagall patted the back of Mao Mao's head, and then pushed him in front of Fudge.
"oh¡¡"
The little cat scratched its head, and said honestly to Fudge, "I'm sorry, meow."
In fact, it's not that Fish doesn't know about these things, it's just that he doesn't care much about them, and Fudge makes him feel bad, as well as his aversion to dementors, which made Maomao say such impolite words just now. .
"It's okay, it's okay." Fudge smiled and waved his hands.
He is not pretending, except that he and Dumbledore have been separated from each other in recent years, and he misunderstood that Dumbledore wanted to steal his ownAside from the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge was a generous man himself.
While talking, a few people sat down in a corner where there were relatively few people around.
Professor McGonagall patted Fish on the back and said to him: "Shouldn't you go and tell your friends first, and you haven't finished your drink yet?"
"Yes!"
¡Æ
When Fish heard this, he immediately turned around and ran towards Hermione and the others.
"Fisch will go sit with Minerva and the others for a while, and come back later, meow."
The little cat picked up the half-drinked milk, said this to Hermione and the others, and then emphasized to Harry: "Harry, don't run around meow, it will be terrible if Minerva finds out gone."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Harry to answer, he rushed back to Professor McGonagall with the cup in his hand.
"Ahem," George cleared his throat after Fish left, and asked mysteriously, "Do you want to know why the Minister of Magic is here?"
Everyone already knew from Harry that the fat man in the top hat was Cornelius Fudge, the Minister of Magic.
"What the hell are you guys thinking about?"
Hermione frowned, folded her hands on her chest, and asked, examining the twins.
Fred also cleared his throat like George did, while pulling out some flesh-colored strings from under his robe.
"I would like to introduce to you all," Fred put the flesh-colored string on the table, and then introduced in a theatrical tone: "Weasley's Whiz Workshop's latest product¡ªextensible ears!"
"Extensible ears? What's the use of this thing?"
Ron poked his finger at the string on the table, and asked curiously, he admired the invention of these two brothers very much.
in particular¡¡
They can still make money,
Earn a lot of money.
"It's very simple," George picked up one of the retractable ears, stuffed the smaller end into his ear, and then pointed to the slightly larger end, which was shaped like an ear, and said, "We can pass this, Gather sounds from a distance and from the other side of the door."
"I must remind everyone that eavesdropping is a very bad behavior."
Hermione, who folded her hands, splashed cold water with a serious face.
"But don't you want to know what Fish and Professor McGonagall are talking about?"
George smiled slyly, making Hermione hesitant for an instant.
So George hit the rails while it was hot: "Besides, Fish has heard a lot of things about us with his keen ears. It's nothing if we just listen to what they are talking about?"
"That's right, and Fisher can definitely hear what we're talking about now." Fred chimed in and said, "If he didn't want us to eavesdrop, he would have already reported to Professor McGonagall."
"Thenthen listen"
Hermione, who kept her words, lowered her head shyly, but firmly grasped the retractable ears on the table with her hands
