Chapter 314 Werewolf

After leaving the principal's office, Fish jumped all the way to Professor McGonagall.

"Minerva~Fish is here, meow~"

|ΦωΦ●)

Unlike when he entered the principal's office, Fish knocked on the door of Professor McGonagall's office honestly, then gently pushed it open and peered inside.

"come in."

Professor McGonagall waved to the kitten with a smile, so Fish jumped in through the crack in the door, closed the door softly, and then ran to Professor McGonagall's house with Fox and Ouroboros. around.

"Minerva~"

●ω●

As usual, the kitten first jumped into Professor McGonagall's arms and played coquettishly for a while, then turned into a cat form and lay on her lap.

The trumpet Fox flapped its wings and landed on Professor McGonagall's hair bun, while Ouroboros wrapped it around Professor McGonagall's hand very skillfully.

"Good evening, Fox, Ouroboros."

Professor McGonagall also said hello to the two magical animals in a normal way, then took out a small comb from the drawer, and while combing Fish's hair, he spoke to the kitten in a gentle and gentle tone. story.

I don’t know what the reason was, but the story Professor McGonagall told Fish today was related to werewolves.

In fact, Fish was not unfamiliar with werewolves. Among Lockhart's seven textbooks, one of them, "Wandering with Werewolves", described werewolves, and long before he came to Hogwarts, he had been reading about werewolves in the school. There are legends of werewolves.

According to rumors circulating in the school, there are a group of werewolves living in the Forbidden Forest, but what is different from ordinary werewolves is that the group of werewolves in the Forbidden Forest are the offspring of two werewolves who reproduced in wolf form during the full moon.

Werewolves born in this way are no different from ordinary wolves, but they have intelligence close to humans. Dumbledore felt sorry for them and allowed them to live in the Forbidden Forest.

Fish once searched for these werewolves in the Forbidden Forest. There were a few wolves, but they were not werewolves and their intelligence was relatively low. Maomao also asked Wuwu and Lochlin about them, but was told that there had never been any. This issue.

Later, Fish asked Dumbledore again and found out that the rumor was completely false. The specific source of the rumor could no longer be verified. The school did not provide clarification, which was just to facilitate students to stay away from the Forbidden Forest.

So until now, Fish only has a partial understanding of the existence of werewolves.

At first, he even thought that werewolves were half-human and half-animal like centaurs and mermaids. After listening to Lockhart’s story, he realized that werewolves were an existence similar to Animagus. It's just that their transformation seems to be beyond their control, but is determined by the moon in the sky.

"Minerva, why did Lupine say that Fish is similar to a werewolf?"

(●ω●)

After listening to the story, Fish transformed back into his human form, then tugged on Professor McGonagall's sleeve and asked curiously: "The wolf's mouth is so long, shouldn't it be more like a dog's meow?"

In fact, he wanted to ask this question at the opening dinner, but was distracted by Dumbledore and forgot about it. Now that he heard Professor McGonagall telling the story of werewolves again, the little cat remembered it again. .

In both Lockhart's and Professor McGonagall's stories, the werewolf seems to have played the role of a bad guy, killing and injuring people at every turn, and then being defeated by the protagonist in the story.

"Fish won't bite anyone casually, meow!"

(●ΦДΦ●)

The kitten's impression of Lupin got even worse, and he actually suggested that he was a bad guy!

"Professor Lupine didn't mean that..."

Professor McGonagall smiled and rubbed Fish's head, calming down the angry kitten.

She deliberately told the story of the werewolf, just to attract Fish's attention. After all, although Professor Lupine is a good person, he is still a werewolf. Every full moon night, he has to hide in the Shrieking Shack to wait for the transformation to end. .

And this little guy Fei Xu usually likes to run around, but when did he accidentally bump into...

Professor McGonagall was not worried that Fish would be bitten by Lupine.

Because Lupine now has the wolfsbane potion provided by Snape, he can stay awake, and his own cat cub can even defeat the basilisk. Even if Lupine, who cannot use the wand, turns into a wolf, he will definitely not be a wolf. Xu's opponent.

She was worried that it wouldn't be good for Fish to beat him up after meeting Lupine.

So Professor McGonagall told Fish about why werewolves bite people, the consequences of being bitten by a werewolf, and Professor Lupine was actually a werewolf.

In fact, even if Feishu didn't ask just now, she planned to explain the situation of the werewolf and Professor Lupin to the kitten after she finished telling the story.

"...Because they have been prejudiced and discriminated against by wizards for a long time, many werewolves have the idea of ​​​​revenge. They are committed to infecting more people, especially children, and cultivating their fear of wizards from childhood, hoping that one day they can rely on A large number of werewolves came to defeat the wizard."

After talking about Lupin, Professor McGonagall didn't want Fish to take werewolves lightly because of this, so she mentioned those radical werewolves again.

"Professor Lupine was the victim of an attack by a group of werewolves when he was a child. The reason was that his father, Lyle Lupine, who was working in the Ministry of Magic at the time, said that all werewolves should die."

After listening to Professor McGonagall's story, Fish finally understood what the vague dangerous aura about Lupine was about.

However, the heavy topic of werewolves is obviously not something that Fish can sort out now. While he sympathizes with Professor Lupin, he is actually a little confused and doesn't know how to react for a while.

Fortunately, Professor McGonagall didn't really want to discuss the current situation and future of werewolves with Fish. She gently patted Fish's head and said softly: "Okay, don't think too much. I tell you these things just to make you not have any prejudice against Professor Lupin, but at the same time, you must remain vigilant when you meet other werewolves in the future."

"Well, Fish knows meow..."

The kitten has not yet gotten out of the heavy topic just now, and nodded a little sullenly.

Professor McGonagall didn't care, because she knew Fish too well. It would take less than three minutes for this carefree little cat to recover, and she didn't need to worry at all.

"Remember to keep the fact that Professor Lupin is a werewolf a secret, otherwise he will have to find another job. Most wizards will not trust a werewolf to teach their children, even if he is really a good person."

"Don't worry, Fish is very tight-lipped, meow!"

(●ΦωΦ●)

The kitten answered confidently, then shook his ears and said, "But Fish thinks that even if Fish doesn't say it, Professor Lupin will eventually leave Hogwarts for other reasons, meow."

Professor McGonagall: "..."

She couldn't refute this question, because it was a truth verified by the resignation of countless Defense Against the Dark Arts professors.

Moreover, although the previous Defense Against the Dark Arts professors left Hogwarts for various reasons, they didn't suffer any losses. At most, they would get hurt by bumps and bumps, and they would be fine after drinking a bottle of potion and lying down for a few hours.

But the Defense Against the Dark Arts professors in the past two years were either missing or disgraced, and the most important thing was that they were all beaten by the little cat in front of them.

Lupin was even worse off this year. He was beaten half to death by Fish on the train before he even got to school... No, he was almost beaten to death...

It will probably be even more difficult for Dumbledore to find a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in the future.

Professor McGonagall sighed in her heart for a moment, and then nothing happened...

Anyway, it was Dumbledore who was worried. She was just the vice-president, so she didn't have to worry about recruitment.

As for the fact that the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher was beaten by the cat...

That was all Voldemort's curse. What does it have to do with Fish in our family?

...

Recommendation ticket monthly ticket

Originally, I wanted Lupin to be beaten by the cat again when he transformed, and then he knew that he was a werewolf, but after thinking about it, Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore would not hide it from Fish. After all, the kitten often ran into the Forbidden Forest and knew the secret passage under the Whomping Willow. It would be unreasonable for him not to remind him.
