Chapter 444: Enemy of the Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor
When everyone gradually dispersed, Fish, who was not full, chatted briefly with Professor McGonagall, and then took Hermione back to the Great Hall.
At this time, the students in the hall had already started a heated discussion, and what happened in the entrance hall spread throughout the school in the blink of an eye.
The Slytherin students naturally had a lot of opinions about Professor Moody's behavior. After all, many of their fathers had followed the Dark Lord, while the Gryffindors were full of laughter, as if Christmas had come early.
"Don't talk to me."
Ron did not join the discussion, contrary to his usual behavior, but said so to Harry.
"Why?" Harry was confused.
"Because I want to keep this incident in my memory forever," Ron answered and closed his eyes at the same time, with a very happy expression on his face, "Draco Malfoy was turned into a ferret by Moody..."
However, before he could savor it for long, Fish and Hermione returned to the long table of Gryffindor.
Ron heard the noise, opened his eyes, and could not help but complain: "If you hadn't rescued Malfoy, Fish, we could have enjoyed his miserable state for a while longer."
"Fish thinks that it would be more meaningful for you to go and fight Draco yourself."
(ˇˇ)
Mao Mao retorted seriously, leaving Ron speechless.
"Okay..." Ron sighed and changed the subject: "I thought you would fight with Professor Moody."
He counted on his fingers with a strange look on his face: "Quirrell, Lockhart, Lupin... You didn't let any of the three Defense Against the Dark Arts professors go."
"Huh? That's right..."
∑(Φ~Φ)
After being reminded by Ron, the cat, who was eating, finally reacted. He swallowed the food in his mouth hard and tilted his head and said: "Fish wanted to fight him, but Minerva came."
"Moody is different from liars like Lockhart!"
At this time, the twins also came to the auditorium and happened to hear the conversation between Fish and them. Fred sat down diagonally opposite Fish and said loudly.
"We took his class this afternoon... It was so cool!" He exclaimed, very excited, "Fish, you may not be able to beat him."
However, Fred's words made the cat more interested in Moody. He swung his tail and asked with shining eyes: "Really?! That weird guy is really powerful?!"
(ω)
"Uh... Maybe..."
Fred was stunned for a moment. He was too excited just now and blurted out without thinking much. Looking at Fish's behavior, he would probably find an opportunity to fight with Professor Moody in the future.
Thinking of the several dark magics that Professor Moody demonstrated in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class this afternoon, Fred quickly added: "But the several dark magics he demonstrated to us today are quite dangerous. He probably won't use them when fighting with you."
"Fish is not afraid of any dark magic! That guy named Voldemort was defeated by Fish!"
(〃`3〃)
The cat crossed his arms unconvinced and pouted.
As soon as Voldemort's name came out, everyone around shuddered subconsciously. George smiled bitterly and said, "In short, Professor Moody is really capable. You will know when you take his class."
Ron buried his head in his schoolbag to find the course schedule.
"We won't have his class until Thursday!" he said in a disappointed tone.
"It will take so long!" Maomao was also disappointed.
Of course, his reason for disappointment was very different from Ron's.
When everyone finished dinner, as soon as Fisch returned to the Gryffindor common room, senior girls led by Sharpay Evans came over and started to tutor Fisch.
Several girls intentionally or unintentionally pushed Hermione next to Maomao aside.
However, the next second, Fish turned around and waved to Hermione who was squeezed to the outer circle, "Hermione, come in quickly, aren't you the one who likes reading the most?"
(ΦωΦ)
Then Maomao turned his head and looked at Sharpay, "Can Hermione and Fish listen together?"
Shape curled her lips, glanced at the girls who had not given up, and smiled and nodded without caring about their feelings, and replied, "Of course no problem."
The girls reluctantly made way, allowing Hermione, the little girl, to walk to Fish with her head held high.
Tutoring Maomao's homework is already a piece of cake for Gryffindor girls, and it's not much different to change it to lecturing.
Especially the several senior girls with excellent grades, led by Sharpay, have long practiced a set of storytelling skills that can make Fish not get bored so easily. Although they are not as good as Professor McGonagall's silent stories, they are more than enough to be a teacher in Hogwarts in the future.
But the cat was too resistant to reading. Even though the girls tried their best and Hermione kept comforting him, Fish only lasted less than an hour before he started to get bored.
"Meow! Reading is so troublesome!"
(`Д)
Finally unable to sit still, Fish ruffled his hair frantically, then stretched out his arms, put his upper body on the table, and rolled his little face back and forth on the table.
The twins and others who were also studying in the common room sighed.
If they were in Firth's position, they would not get bored even if they studied for a whole day, not to mention an hour.
Xia Pei, the main person in charge of the first tutoring session, chuckled and put down the textbook in her hand.
"Then take a break," she said, "Do you need your sister to comb your hair?"
"Hermione?"
(ω)
Firth, who was lying on the table, raised his head and looked at Hermione beside him.
He was already Hermione's cat, so it would be better to ask for her consent... especially when Hermione herself was present.
Firth didn't watch TV in vain this summer vacation. Although he watched cartoons most of the time, he would occasionally watch other programs and learned a lot of miscellaneous knowledge from them.
Among them, there were cases where boyfriends and girlfriends got angry because of other opposite sexes. The cat didn't want to see Hermione like the women on TV.
"Then I'll trouble you, senior sister."
Hermione didn't answer Firth, but said this directly to Xia Pei. She and Sharpay had a pretty good relationship, because Sharpay was the first girl to accept the relationship between Hermione and the cat.
Moreover, Sharpay not only had excellent grades, but was also very good at dealing with people. Hermione had always regarded her as a role model, so when she asked to pet the cat, Hermione didn't mind.
Besides...
The cat had already been petted by all the girls in the school. If Hermione was jealous about this, she would be jealous sooner or later.
With Hermione's consent, Fish turned into a cat directly, then lay on the table with his legs spread out, and purred in advance to express pleasure.

There is a small bug in the original book. Ron said that they had Defense Against the Dark Arts class on Thursday, but September 1, 1994 was Thursday, and the first day was school registration, so there was no class, which means that this day was Friday.
Defense Against the Dark Arts is a compulsory course, and there are only two classes on Thursday afternoons, which is obviously unreasonable. I guess Rowling wrote the first day of school as Monday, because it is mentioned later that they will have Defense Against the Dark Arts two days later.
Similarly, there is a small bug related to the date. In the original book, Harry and his friends mentioned that there were two potions classes on Friday afternoon, and they would finish class early because people from two other schools were coming. But this day was for herbs, magical animals and divination.
In the original book, the arrival time of the two schools was "Friday, October 30th", but in fact it was Sunday.
…
It was so cold these two days that I didn't want to get up in the morning and didn't want to write at night...
I miss salted fish...Long live salted fish!
