Chapter 70 Defense Against the Dark Arts Teacher
As night fell, Fish, who was tired of chasing the golden snitch in the lounge again, put away his recently acquired toys, got out of the hole in the wall and began his routine patrol of the territory.
Feishu has been having a great time these past few days. She doesn’t have to read those magic books that make cats dizzy, nor does she have to smell the smell of smelly guys that cats can’t avoid, and she also has to fly tirelessly. Toys can be played with.
Not to mention the various delicious foods that he never lacked, and a group of different kinds of good friends to play with him.
Although Feishu accidentally lost one of his golden snitches two days ago, he had already taken an extra one just in case. And even if this one was lost now, he could still go to that strange room to get a new one.
Fei is so smart! <( ̄︶ ̄)>
Fish, who was in a happy mood, held his tail high, with the tip of his tail slightly bent, forming the shape of a question mark, and patrolled the Hogwarts Castle in a high-spirited manner.
Unlike the happy Fish, Quirinus Quirrell, who had quietly sneaked back to Hogwarts, was now very upset.
He had finally managed to lure Feishi to the Room of Requirement, but the boy didn't follow the rules at all and made him wait all night.
After the mission failed, the Dark Lord, who did not accept excuses, severely punished Quirrell, even making him think that he was going to die. Quirrell did not want to recall the process at all.
After being punished, Quirrell had to ask for leave from Dumbledore in order not to be discovered by Madam Pomfrey, and spent several days recuperating outside on the pretext of going out to do errands. It was only today that he recovered.
And the culprit of all this is this damn catboy wandering around Hogwarts Castle in front of him!
Quirrell, who was hiding aside, gritted his teeth and stared at Fish who was bullying the portrait, wishing he could show up immediately and shoot Avada Kedavra at him.
However, he could only think about this kind of thing. Even if there was no risk of being discovered by Dumbledore, the Dark Lord would not allow him to do this, because they would also use Fish to find out where the Philosopher's Stone was hidden. Where.
Although it seems that there is a high probability that the Philosopher's Stone is hidden in the trap door under the three-headed dog, it may also be a smoke bomb thrown by Dumbledore.
Moreover, Quirrell and Voldemort knew nothing about what was going on under the trap door, so it was necessary to control Fish and ask him to help find out this information.
"Meow!"∑(=ΦДΦ=)
Fish, who was sharpening his claws with the picture frame and making the knight in the picture scream angrily, suddenly felt a chill on his body and the hair on his body exploded automatically.
The beast's intuition was activated again. Fish arched his back, lowered his ears, and looked around in confusion for a while, but found nothing wrong around him.
"Meow?"
Feishu's body gradually relaxed, and then he tilted his head in confusion.
Is it a sequelae of reading too much before? Did it cause problems with my own spells?
...It's all Minerva's fault!
Feishu couldn't help but think of this in his little mind.
"Are you trying to escape? You damn wild cat! Our duel is not over yet!"
Sir Cadogan's roar interrupted Fish's thoughts. In the portrait, he waved a spear that was completely harmless to Fish, constantly provoking him.
"Come on! Coward! I will nail your pathetic corpse to the wall just like I killed that wyvern!"
"Meow!"(=`Д=)
Fish no longer thought about the beast's intuitive feedback. He turned around and pounced under Sir Cadogan's portrait again, scratching his frame until sawdust flew away.
Minerva had promised not to damage the portraits, but she had not said that she was not allowed to damage the frames.
Feishe is a good and obedient cat...when he wants to.
"Stop! You little thieving cat! Stop doing these little tricks! Come and have an upright duel with me!"
Sir Cadogan angrily stabbed Fish in the direction with his spear, but unfortunately his spear could not penetrate the canvas, and it could not stop Fish from destroying his frame.
"Meow-!"
So Fish scratched even more vigorously.
After almost tearing the lower edge of Sir Cadogan's frame, Fish finally lost interest in this yelling portrait. He shook his tail, turned around and ran towards a passing ghost. .
"Don't even think about escaping! You coward! Our duel will continue! You little hairy bastard!"
Sir Cadogan's shouts and curses kept coming from behind, but Fish didn't bother to pay attention at all, mainly because... he didn't understand the meaning of some of the curse words in the tin can's mouth.
Moreover, in Fei Xu's mind, the tin can has been defeated by him, and now it is just shouting incompetently.
Fei Xu rushed to the passing ghost in three or two steps, stretched out his little paw and gave him a tug.
"It's you little guy again!"
This ghost is an old acquaintance of Fei Xu. He is the one who Fei Xu was constantly pulling at when he first entered school.
This is a fat Victorian ghost named Edmund Grubbs. He died at the door of the Great Hall of Hogwarts because he accidentally ate poisonous plums, so when Edmund was in a bad mood, When he is good, he will stand at the place where he died and prevent other living people from entering to eat.
"Meow~"(=ΦωΦ=)
Fish ignored Edmund's warning, stretched out his claws again, and scratched him twice.
Although he couldn't touch these humans emitting silver-white light, this icy feeling was actually quite interesting.
"Stop it! You naughty little guy!"
Edmund had to fly into the air to avoid Fish's little claws. He roared in dissatisfaction: "Hogwarts is really getting worse and worse in managing students! No student dared to be so bold back then!"
After saying that, Edmund continued to rise and flew through the ceiling to the upper floor, because he knew that if he didn't run, the annoying Animagus student would climb up the wall and continue to scratch him...
At this time, Fish had already used the spider walk to stand on the wall.
Seeing Edmund leave through the ceiling, Fish didn't plan to take a long detour to run upstairs to find him, so he continued to use the spider walk, leisurely walking along the wall, four small claws stepped on more than a dozen portraits hanging on the wall, causing the characters in the portraits to shout.
But he was not afraid of the portrait of the noisy tin can, let alone these "unarmed" portraits.
After walking along the wall for a while and waking up countless portrait characters, Fish jumped off the wall with satisfaction, and then wandered to other floors.
Professor Quirrell patiently followed Fish through one floor after another, watching him play tricks everywhere in Hogwarts Castle... Anyway, it was not the first time.
It was not until the second half of the night that Fish, who had played enough, ran to the kitchen for a midnight snack, and then, as usual, he took the packed food to the fourth floor and the roof of the west tower to deliver food to Fluffy and the owls.
After doing all this, Fish did not call Comey to take him back to the dormitory as he did before, because an idea suddenly popped up in his little head. Since the Golden Snitch can appear in the Room of Requirement, can other toys also appear?
Voldemort, who was controlling Quirrell's body, silently took back his wand. During Quirrell's recuperation, he also used the potion to slightly recover some of his strength. Due to the previous failure and the fact that he was a little impatient, he just took over Quirrell's body forcibly.
Unlike Quirrell's stupid method of making a bunch of noises to lure Fitz, Voldemort only needed to quietly release a suggestion spell to make Fitz take the initiative to enter the hidden location of the Room of Requirement without alerting Dumbledore or attracting the attention of others.
So under the influence of the suggestion spell, Fitz once again came to the tapestry of the giant beating Barnabas silly with a stick, and then walked back and forth in front of it three times.
[I want a room full of toys... It's better to have a place to sleep... It would be even better if there is a place to sharpen claws...]
The little cat's mind is always abnormally jumping. Fortunately, although Fitz's request is complicated, the Room of Requirement still responds to his request.
Pushing open the smooth door, what appeared in front of Fitz this time was a dream room full of cat toys, cat climbing frames and cat beds.
"Meow--!" (=ω=)
Excited Fei Xu threw himself into the pile of toys in front of him, not noticing that the door behind him had closed automatically, and a figure covered in a black robe quietly appeared.
"Soul out of the body!"

I will update one chapter first, and there will be two chapters in the evening.
I originally planned to update a W-word like the last book, but then I looked at the manuscripts in my archives... and gave up...
But today's three chapters add up to more than 7K and nearly 8K, which is about the same if you round it up... right?
