"Did you just go to the prefect's bathroom?" Hermione's eyes moved away from Crookshanks and fell on Albert. From just now, she smelled a faint scent on Albert.
fragrance.
"Do you know the prefects' washroom?" Albert was a little surprised that Hermione actually knew about the prefects' washroom.
"I heard Percy mention it before. He said that being a prefect has many benefits." Hermione explained quickly.
"I rarely go to the prefect's bathroom. Myrtle, well, maybe you know the female ghost. She likes to hide there and peek at others taking a bath." Albert said helplessly, "And, sometimes you
You might even run into someone on a date there.”
"A date?" Hermione's cheeks suddenly turned red and she stammered, "A date in the prefect's bathroom?"
"That place is really suitable for a date, at least you don't have to worry about being disturbed." Albert nodded as if he agreed, "Under normal circumstances, not many prefects would go there to take a bath, and Filch can't get in either.
Go, it's very suitable to go on a date at night. As far as I know, Percy likes to ask his girlfriends to go on dates."
"Percy and his girlfriend?" Harry pricked up his ears curiously, seeming to be very interested in Percy's gossip.
"You can also bring your girlfriend over for a date in the future." Albert glanced at Harry and Hermione and said in a determined tone: "You can definitely use it. Even if you can't become a prefect, you should be able to become a Quidditch."
Captain Qi."
"No, no, we are just good friends." Harry noticed Albert's appraising gaze and quickly shook his head in denial.
"Perhaps, you will become a couple one day. Sometimes it's hard to talk about many things." Albert did not continue to dwell on this topic and asked: "Where is Weasley? I thought the three of you were always together.
"
Speaking of Ron, both Harry and Hermione were slightly embarrassed.
"A falling out, because Harry became a warrior?" Albert took out a small dried fish from his pocket and teased Crookshanks, "I still think the cat should be fatter to look better."
"Tom is too fat." Hermione continued: "I don't want Crookshanks to become a big fat cat."
"Don't worry, after Weasley watches the first event, I think he will no longer be jealous of you becoming a warrior. Not everyone has the courage to face those ferocious magical creatures." Albert
Said calmly.
"Have you divined the specific content of the first project?" Hermione couldn't help but ask.
"I don't have a prediction, but I can guess that this is the charm of arithmetic divination." Albert turned to Hermione and said, "Believe me, there will definitely be someone willing to help us cheat."
"You mean Professor Moody?" Harry also heard about Professor Moody's deeds.
"It's Hagrid. He likes those ferocious magical creatures. As long as those monsters arrive around Hogwarts, Hagrid will definitely know about it at the first time. Believe me, Hagrid will definitely be happy to tell us the needs of the first project.
What to face."
"Do you really think we'll encounter an Acromantula?" Harry asked.
"I think it should be a magical creature classified as
It's really a joy to have a group of Acromantulas in the forest as our opponents. I've dealt with them a lot before."
"What do you think it will be?" Hermione couldn't help but ask. She felt that Harry needed to do something during this time, otherwise it would be difficult to pass the first project.
"It's probably a fire dragon. After all, every warrior needs one. Many XXXXX magical creatures are actually not easy to find. There are a bunch of them in the Acromantula Forbidden Forest, but they are better at sneak attacks. It would be a bit difficult to face a warrior head-on.
If it’s sloppy, it might be easily dealt with.”
"Fire dragon?"
Harry couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. He simply couldn't imagine how he would face a terrifying fire dragon.
"This is just a guess Harry." Hermione comforted aloud, "They can't really let the warriors fight the fire dragon. Even an adult wizard needs many people to subdue a dragon."
"No, actually I think the possibility of fire dragon is very high. This thing is really difficult to deal with, and it will test the bravery and wisdom of the warriors. Moreover, there are actually many fire dragons, which are relatively easy to find among the known magical creatures. I remember
Charlie’s job is to tame the fire dragon. Of course, it could also be a chicken-tailed monster, if they dare to use it after what happened last time. Anyway, as long as it’s not a basilisk or a venomous leopard, I can accept it.”
"No matter what happens, it's hard for me to accept it." Harry muttered. He really couldn't imagine that he would be scared to the point of weakness when facing those monsters.
"Don't worry, you can let Black and Lupine train your combat ability. There are many giant monsters and acromantula in the Forbidden Forest, which are very good training objects and can allow you to accumulate combat experience. When the time comes, you
Then I won’t have stage fright.”
Albert's nonchalant look gave Harry the impression that going into the woods to kill trolls and spiders was a common thing.
"How did you do that? Crookshanks seems to be very comfortable." Hermione changed the subject. She noticed that two junior students were trying to eavesdrop on their conversation.
"Have you never petted a cat before?" Albert pointed to Crookshanks' ears and began to show Hermione: "Gently rub the cat's ears with your thumb and index finger like I do, from the inside to the outside.
Gently rub it in the direction of the cat's ears, which will make the cat feel particularly comfortable."
Hermione observed Albert's movements with interest.
"Most cats like others to touch their chin. When they rub their chin against your hand, you should use your fingers to scratch the cat's chin. Some cats like to scratch lightly, while others like to scratch harder.
It varies from cat to cat. If you scratch it well, it will make the cat feel very comfortable, like this." Albert gave Hermione another demonstration. Crookshanks made a series of purring sounds comfortably, and it looked like
Looks like he's enjoying it.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If the cat feels very comfortable, it will make the same sound as before.
"Then there is the neck area. You can massage it a little harder." After Albert finished, he put his hand on Crookshanks' back and said: "For the back, you can gently stroke it with the palm of your hand, or use a cat comb.
He combs his hair. My Tom likes to lie down and let me comb his hair. You can also prepare a comb."
"So, you spoiled the cat." Harry finally couldn't help but interjected.
"Is it possible that you raise a cat and expect it to catch mice for you?" Albert asked with a strange expression, "Harry, you seem to have misunderstood the meaning of raising a cat. Many people actually raise cats to relieve stress and relieve stress.
Anxiety can make people feel better. Hogwarts allows students to keep cats more in the hope that students can be accompanied, comforted, and emotionally satisfied after leaving home. It should not be difficult for you to feel this from Filch.
point."
"That's why you warned others not to plot against Filch's Mrs. Norris?" Harry suddenly fell silent. He originally thought that Albert liked cats, so he stopped the students from harming Filch's cat.
It seems that the situation is not what he thought.
"If you kill or maim Filch's cat, believe me, Filch will spend the rest of the time causing trouble for you until you leave Hogwarts." A look appeared on Albert's face.
Weird smile.
Harry couldn't help but shiver. He thought of Filch's bad mood when Mrs. Norris was petrified.
After listening to Albert's words, Hermione suddenly regretted it. When she was busy with her studies last year, Albert told her that she could use cats to relieve the fatigue caused by her studies, but Hermione didn't care, or
He said he never cared about it from the beginning.
Hearing the three people discussing how to pet cats, other students lost interest in eavesdropping.
After eleven o'clock, there was no one in the Gryffindor common room.
The three moved their seats to the fireplace. Harry felt a little stupid, watching Hermione learn how to masturbate Crookshanks correctly under Albert's guidance.
"Why do you always like to lock Tom in the dormitory?" Hermione couldn't help but ask, gently stroking Crookshanks' back.
"Because Tom is stupid, at least compared to your Crookshanks, he is not really smart. Moreover, some people don't like me. They can't trouble me. Can't they trouble my cat?
Killing a cat is not a big deal to them?"
"I think they shouldn't..."
"No, Hermione, I think you may have made a mistake." Albert interrupted impatiently, "Children are more cruel than you think. They can definitely kill a cat without any psychological pressure. I
I don’t want to regret it after Tom gets hurt.”
"Would they really do that?" Hermione doubted.
"They would do that. Slytherin students are so bad that they ooze pus." Harry sneered, obviously agreeing with Albert's point of view.
"It's not that Slytherin is so bad that he oozes pus, but most of the descendants of dark wizards are so bad that they pus. This has something to do with their family education."
"I think you are prejudiced against them." Although Hermione also disliked Slytherin students, she always felt that Albert was prejudiced against them.
"Do you know what black magic is?" Albert's face hidden in the shadows was a bit gloomy. He said to himself, "You must have the determination and strength to kill the other person before you can really hurt them, otherwise
Even if you target a rabbit and chant the Death Curse, you can't kill it. This is why there is no black magic in Hogwarts, because the wizards who often use black magic are a group of twisted and cruel lunatics, and their descendants
, are also easily affected by extreme emotions and become crazy."
Harry and Hermione opened their mouths, not expecting to hear such words.
"I also have a few acquaintances and good friends in Slytherin." Albert's expression was strange, "But their families are all a group of guys who are hard to describe."
"But, I don't think they would kill an innocent cat just because they don't like you." Hermione argued.
"They don't like me? No, I think you are mistaken. They hate me, not dislike me." Albert corrected.
"how come……"
"Because I made pure blood lose face." Albert explained impatiently.
"What?"
"Just imagine, a Muggle wizard actually won a large number of international awards. For most British pure-blood wizards, it is definitely a shame. It's like someone stepped on their faces and crushed them back and forth.
After a few times, I spit on it.
"I like your description." Harry couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Purebloods always claim to be better than Muggle wizards." Albert raised his hand and interrupted, "And my existence will most likely be regarded as purebloods being inferior to Muggles, so they would rather I didn't win the award.
This is the current situation in the British wizarding world today. The status of Muggle wizards is actually very embarrassing. It is difficult for them to have higher positions in the Ministry of Magic. So if you want to work in the Ministry of Magic, you'd better hope that the environment will get better by then.
Otherwise, if you go there, you will only be frustrated and angry."
"I think Albert is right, Malfoy has that kind of face." Harry agreed with Albert's point of view, "Maybe other people will not be as extreme as Malfoy, but..."
"But Percy said the Ministry of Magic..."
"Percy probably didn't tell you that I picked out his job for him."
"Did you pick it for him?" Hermione couldn't help but widen her eyes.
At this moment, the voices of the three people stopped suddenly because they heard a somewhat unfamiliar voice coming from the double-sided mirror.
"Is it Sirius?" Harry excitedly picked up the double-sided mirror.
"Harry?"
Sirius's voice came out from the double-way mirror again, and soon Sirius's appearance appeared in the double-way mirror.
"Harry, didn't you give the note to Anderson?" Sirius asked.
"He's right next to him." Harry handed the double-sided mirror to Albert.
"Long time no see Sirius." Albert took the mirror and greeted Black, "How is the sales of "Defense Guide" now?"
"We followed your suggestion and cooperated with other stores. The sales volume of "Defense Guide" is gradually increasing, but the profit is not as high as expected, and it is still operating at a loss." Sirius couldn't help laughing, "Lupin has been
I’m worried that the magazine society will go bankrupt due to losses.”
"Definitely not for the time being." Albert said, "Remember to ask Mr. Lupine to prepare a financial statement. I will make fine adjustments to the magazine based on the situation. By the way, what do you want from me?"
"Lupine is by my side. He has heard what you said and said that he will send you what you need in two days." Sirius said.
"By the way, what do you want from me?"
"It's about Harry becoming a Hogwarts warrior." Sirius said seriously, suppressing the smile on his face.
"Perhaps, you should go to Dumbledore." Albert said without hesitation, "In this regard, Principal Dumbledore must know better than me."
