Chapter 8 Dumbledore's Visit

As a big orange, eating is of course the most important thing. Not long after he came out of old James Carter's study, Garfield had almost forgotten about Dumbledore and his young wife Gagador, and was obsessed with how to do it every day.

Enjoy the food, sunshine and Paige's soft arms.

Patrol territory

Eat food

bask in the sun

Or lying on Peggy's bed, bickering with the occasionally bubbling Pandora, the boy's life was really comfortable.

Garfield didn't expect that the first adventure in his cat's life would come quietly.

It was still a depressing bad weather, and it was pouring rain. Garfield would take his third portion of breakfast from the servant's plate, divide it into two and eat his own.

in stomach.

So comfortable

Garfield raised the tooth with his paw and complained: "Chef Ello's skills have declined a bit, meow."

Pandora appeared, riding on top of Garfield's head and said: "Nonsense, you are just a cat. It would be great if I could cook for you alone. I also want the chef to be at the level of entertaining guests. I'm dreaming about you."

Garfield looked unhappy: "I am the king of Carter Manor, Garfield the First, but he didn't cook for me properly. He asked Jerry to throw some mouse droppings into his bowl, meow."

"Your 10th Jerry has been eaten by that owl"

"Oh, then just look for No. 11. There are so many rats anyway."

"It's sad that this little mouse has been abandoned by you like this."

"It proves that its life is not good. I won't tell you anymore. I have to recuperate my energy."

"You're a single cat, why do you need to recharge your batteries?"

“Save up energy for the next meal.”

"..."

Pandora was speechless. There was nothing she could do about such a shameless cat. Besides, Pandora felt that she also needed to sleep for a while.

"Whirring whirring"

A steady purr sounded.

Continuous light rain falls from the sky, hits the roof, collects along the tiles, and flows downward by gravity.

lightning in the sky

At the gate of Carter Manor, the air suddenly distorted, and a figure suddenly appeared at the gate.

The person who came was a middle-aged European man with a mustache and sharp features. He was resolute but not wise. He was wearing a gray suit and a golden pocket watch on his chest. He looked up at the sky and said, "I forgot that today is the day."

It’s raining, but luckily I always carry an umbrella with me.”

After saying that, the visitor conjured a black umbrella out of thin air, opened it, and the umbrella instantly blocked the rain in the sky. The visitor reached out and pushed open the manor door, and walked in.

The visitor walked through the door of the manor villa and pushed the door open. Karl, who was squatting at the door and guarding the door, raised his head and put it down again when he saw the visitor. Apparently he recognized the person.

"Hello, Carl"

"Woof..."

After saying hello to Karl, the visitor continued to walk in. He didn't meet a single servant along the way, and he arrived at the door of old James's study in a familiar way.

Reach out your hand

Dangdangdang

Knocked three times

Old James Carter's voice came from the study: "Come in when you're here, Dumbledore."

“Basic politeness is still necessary”

"Otherwise you will teleport directly to my study?"

"James, it makes me sad when you say that. I have specially cast a protection spell on Carter Manor. Evil spirits and people without permission cannot approach you."

"Okay, I understand. I just wanted to tease you a little bit. I haven't been here for a long time recently."

"Yes, my movements have been restricted by the school and the Ministry of Magic~!"

"Okay, I heard something, it's not your fault~!"

"No, it was my fault for letting him go."

Listening to Dumbledore being so serious, Old James had no intention of continuing to talk to him about this topic. He took out an envelope from his drawer and handed it to Dumbledore: "This is the ticket to New York and the child's identity information.

, you check it”

Dumbledore did not open it, but stretched out his hand to put it in his arms: "There is no need to look at it. I can rest assured that you are doing something. It is not easy for me to go out. Please hurry up and get down to business. Where is the orange cat you mentioned?"

"Are you in such a hurry? I have prepared good tea and milk candies just for you."

"Oh, just wait a moment, I can still do it if I delay this for a while."

As a person who loves sweets the most, Dumbledore decided to sit down for a while and taste the tea and toffee prepared by his old friend.

Pour the boiling water into the tea cup, then add the milk and sugar cubes, stir clockwise with a silver spoon, and soon the sweet flavor of the tea, milk and sugar will emanate from the cup.

Dumbledore didn't wait for the tea to cool down and directly opened his mouth to taste it: "Century-old tea tree, the freshest milk, and sugar cubes with some honey added. Old James, your taste is still so good. It's really great to be friends with you."

Not a loss”

'Dumbledore, you are still friends with me because of these things~!"

Dumbledore smiled slightly: "The first time we met was also at a tea restaurant run by your family, and it was also because of tea. This is fate, you can't deny it."

"I have the nerve to say it. When I was young, you used magic to cheat me out of a month of free entertainment."

Dumbledore shook his head: "No, James, that's just a simple cover-up."

"Give me some face, for the sake of this cup of tea and candy."

Old James mentioned the candy. Dumbledore reached out and picked up a candy from the tea tray, peeled off the sugar coating and threw it into his mouth: "Well, I almost forgot if you didn't remind me. The milk also smells like vanilla. Old James, you guys

The Carter family is still too rich. How about you consider supporting me? If the school doesn’t let me continue to be a teacher, I will have no income and no place to live~!"

The pitiful tone seemed as if Dumbledore was really poor, but old James Carter just gave him a roll of the eyes: "If I didn't know you very well, I would definitely be moved by your expression and tone, but,

I don’t know about you, but if you are short of money, I will probably be a pauper.”

"This sentence breaks my heart. It's not like you don't know that knowledge is wealth, that's why I am rich. As for you and my good friend, I don't know."

Dumbledore's words of ridicule made old James twist his mouth: "Neither tea nor sugar can stop your mouth."

"Hahaha"

"Ha ha ha ha"

After teasing each other, the two people looked at each other and smiled.

When the tea in the teacup ran out, Dumbledore opened his pocket watch and said, "Oh, it's almost time."

"I thought you could have another drink."

"We can only wait until the trouble is over, my old friend."

"Then let's go see my granddaughter's orange cat."

"To be honest, I think your granddaughter's qualifications are pretty good. I still have one less apprentice."

"Let's wait until she is older to discuss this issue."

"That's okay, you can't force this matter."

While the two were talking, they came to the door of Peggy's room in Garfield's residence...
