Chapter 429 Cat Mark [Happy Lantern Festival]

Of course, the spell that Fish knew was not quite the same as the Dark Mark. To be precise, Fish knew only a spell similar to the Dark Mark.

That was a variant of the Illumination spell that Fish developed with Hermione during the summer vacation based on the content of the Muggle cartoons. Except for the smaller scale, the way it was presented was similar to the Dark Mark...

After all, they were still at Hermione's house at the time, surrounded by Muggles, and couldn't make too much noise.

But it was not difficult for Fish to make the effect of this spell bigger. After all, it was a spell developed by himself, and he could just put an expansion spell in it.

So Fish could not only change the light source into different shapes by adjusting the spell, but he also worked with Hermione to come up with strange functions such as dubbing the light source and controlling the formed light source to make simple movements.

The cat jumped off Hermione's shoulder and took out his wand after regaining his human form.

Professor McGonagall's attention was attracted by the Dark Mark in the sky, so she didn't notice Fish's movements at the first time. By the time she realized something was wrong, Fish had already pointed his wand to the sky...

"Cat head shines!"

(●ΦωΦ●)つ━☆*.

"Swoosh——"

Accompanied by a sharp whistle, a thumb-sized silver-white light ball flew out from the tip of Fish's wand, dragging a long tail flame into the night sky. After flying to a certain height, the light ball suddenly exploded, and a silver-white cat head that was a circle larger than the Dark Mark appeared above Fish and others. This cat head exuded a silver-white glow, covering the nearby woods with a layer of soft white gauze.

"Meow——!"

The silver-white cat head opened its mouth and made a cat cry, which contrasted with the green skull head that was swallowing and spitting out poisonous snakes in the distance.

Everyone around was stunned, and Professor McGonagall almost fainted. She only realized now that the variant lighting technique that Fish and Hermione had invented during the summer vacation was similar to the Dark Mark after being magnified!

Fish had no time to pay attention to the surprised expressions of the people around him. It was also the first time for him to create such a huge magic light source. It was still a bit difficult to control it. The cat had to concentrate.

"Go! Beat it up!"

(`ω)

Fish waved his wand and pointed at the Dark Mark in the distance. Under his control, the silver-white cat head in the sky rushed towards the green skull head with great momentum.

"Meow--!"

The silver cat head that floated to the Dark Mark made another cat cry, and then opened its mouth wide to bite the skull head.

I don't know if it was because the time of the Dark Mark had just arrived, or if the characteristic of that thing was that it would dissipate when touched. Anyway, when Fish's silver cat head bit it, the Dark Mark disappeared like a bubble that was punctured, turning into a puff of green smoke.

"What meow! Why did you give up so quickly meow!"

(`ω)

Fish shouted very dissatisfiedly. He still wanted to use his glowing cat head to fight the green skull head.

"Quickly cancel the spell!"

Professor McGonagall finally came to her senses and roared at Fish.

"Oh..."

(〃｀へ〃)

The opponent disappeared, so Fish obediently canceled the cat head he had transformed. However, because he failed to successfully fight the skull head, the cat was not in a very good mood.

Professor McGonagall was in an even worse mood. She came to Fish's side, with her hands on her waist, and was about to give a good lecture, when more than a dozen wizards flew over from a distance and landed in front of them.

"Professor McGonagall... is it really Fish?"

After landing, the leading wizard looked at the innocent little cat and Professor McGonagall standing beside him, and smiled helplessly.

The man who came was named Amos Diggory, the father of Cedric Diggory. They lived in Ottery St. Catchpole with the Weasleys and the Lovegoods. Fish had known them when he was a guest at the Burrow, and he also went to their tent during the day.

In fact, when Amos saw that it was a cat's head that appeared in the sky, he had guessed that it was most likely caused by Fish. After all, when they were in Ottery St. Catchpole, Fish had caused them a lot of trouble.

It was precisely because he knew how naughty this little guy Fish was that he was worried that those colleagues who didn't know Fish would conflict with the cat, so Amos left Harry Potter and volunteered to come here to deal with the matter.

Another reason was that I had offended Crouch with my words just now, so I just found an excuse to avoid his anger. As for the house elf who was suspected of releasing the Dark Mark, I left it to Crouch to deal with it.

"Ahem, Professor McGonagall, although I know that this may be just a whim of Fish, the procedures should still be followed. Please let him release the spell again so that we can confirm that this is not a variant of the Dark Mark."

Mr. Diggory cleared his throat and spoke in an official tone.

The group of wizards behind him naturally had no objection. Some of them had seen Fish a long time ago, and some saw him for the first time. But no matter it was the first time they met or they had known each other for a long time, under the influence of the cat's affinity, everyone tacitly chose to make a big deal out of a small matter.

"I know..." Professor McGonagall smiled and nodded at them as an expression of gratitude. Then she glared fiercely at the little fur cat next to her. Just use the size you normally play with.”

"oh……"

Fish also knew that he was most likely in trouble. Although Maomao didn't understand what he had done wrong, he was clearly the one who killed that scary skull...

But Fish also knew that now was not the time to be harsh, so he obediently raised his wand and pointed it in front of him: "The cat's head shines!"

(●ΦωΦ●)つ━☆*.

A ball of silvery white light mist sprayed out, forming a fist-sized cat head. At first glance, it looked a bit like a patronus charm. Then Fish gently shook the wand, and the silvery white cat head began to flash. Come in different colors...

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple... all the colors are like a Muggle disco ball...

Especially when Fish started singing the theme song of his favorite Muggle cartoon in a meowing voice...

It's more like that.

"Don't do unnecessary things!"

Professor McGonagall knocked Fish on the head angrily, causing the restless little cat to stop his "disco" behavior and dispel his spell.

"Well, okay, thank you for your cooperation."

Mr. Diggory nodded dumbfounded, and upon closer inspection they could both clearly tell the difference.

There is a saying that the technical content of the cat head that Fish conjured is much higher than that of the Dark Mark. The Dark Mark itself is actually a simple trick, but Voldemort gave this mark a terrifying meaning.

"Minerva, what is that skull for?"

(ω)

Fish asked curiously. He now understood that Mr. Diggory and his friends were so grand, but it actually had little to do with his cat head. The key was the green skull.

"That's the Dark Mark, the symbol of the mysterious man."

"Mystery man?"

ω

Maomao tilted his head to recall, and then he remembered who he was referring to.

"Oh, it's Riddle..." Fish muttered in realization.

Professor McGonagall ignored the muttering of the cat and immediately turned to Mr. Digory and asked: "Have you caught the person who released the Dark Mark, Amos?"

"No," Mr. Digory shook his head helplessly, "The other party was too cunning. After releasing the Dark Mark, he disapparated and escaped. He used Potter's wand when casting the spell, and was then killed by Mr. Crouch. The little elf at home picked it up..."

When Mr. Digory talked about this, his expression looked a little weird. After all, he had offended Barty Crouch because of this before he came.

"Potter? You mean Harry Potter?" Professor McGonagall asked with concern.

"Yes, when the unknown Death Eater released the Dark Mark, he and Arthur's young son were not far away and heard the man's voice."

Mr. Diggory touched his short brown beard and said with lingering fear: "Fortunately, he left after firing the Dark Mark. Harry Potter would be in danger if he didn't let him go."

He knocked his head in annoyance. He had actually suspected that the Dark Mark was conjured by Harry Potter before. He was really stupid. No wonder he made Mr. Crouch angry.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. Mr. Diggory has experienced the period when the Dark Lord was raging, and he can't control his emotions when encountering such things.

"Minerva, Felicity can help you smell it, maybe you can catch that person!"

(ΦωΦ)

Maomao also knew that Voldemort and his subordinates were not good people, so he volunteered.

In addition, he also suspected that the other party was probably Draco's father, so he wanted to confirm it.
