Chapter 16: School starts again

just like that the time flew by like a blink of an eye. It's another year of school season, and one month later, it will be Hogwarts' new school year.

Professor McGonagall has experienced countless new semesters, but this year is still a special year even for Professor McGonagall, a senior teacher at Hogwarts.

Because this year not only Harry Potter, who defeated Voldemort, is about to enroll in Hogwarts, but the Fisch McGonagall she adopted also received the admission letter from Hogwarts yesterday.

"Fish, we should go now."

Accompanied by Professor McGonagall's call, a silver tabby kitten about 13 inches in size jumped down from the second floor, turned two somersaults in the air, and became a ten-year-old, silver-haired, blue-eyed little cat. The boy fell to the ground lightly.

It has been nearly three years since Professor McGonagall adopted Fisch. Under the teaching of Professor McGonagall, Fisch has basically mastered the language of human society and some common sense.

At least he has figured out the "butt puzzle" of the year and has gradually become accustomed to the human way of life.

Although Fisch personally still prefers his original state, he is not so repulsive to human form and clothing now.

Looking at Fisch who jumped directly from the second floor, Professor McGonagall also sighed helplessly. Although she taught Fisch a lot, he still maintained a lot of his habits as a cat.

According to Professor McGonagall's idea, he should wait until Fisch's behavior becomes more normal before letting him study at Hogwarts.

It's just that now that Fisch received the admission letter from Hogwarts this year, the staid Professor McGonagall will naturally not violate the Hogwarts rules.

As for Fisch, he has heard of the name Hogwarts more than once in the past three years. He is still very curious about this place, and he still doesn't have a precise concept of what it means to go to school.

When Fisch was a stray cat, he also saw the school of the Muggle world. In his understanding, going to school is a place where a group of human cubs gather and play together.

So when Professor McGonagall told Fisch that he would also go to school this year, the ignorant kitty accepted it without hesitation.

Isn't just another place to play? This matter will be familiar to you!

"Are we going to Hogwarts?"

Fisch, who fell in front of Professor McGonagall, asked with some excitement.

"No, today we are just going to Diagon Alley to buy you essential supplies for school."

Textbook Crucible and the like, Professor McGonagall actually has them here, after all, the basic Hogwarts tutorial has not been changed for many years, but she still wants to buy a new set of utensils for Fisch.

In addition, the magic wand is absolutely indispensable.

So it is necessary to go to Diagon Alley.

As for pets or whatever, Professor McGonagall felt that even if she bought a pet for Fisch, he would be tossed to death by this kid the next day, and even went directly into his stomach.

"Must have? Is it delicious?" (●ΦωΦ●)?

Fisch became more excited after hearing this.

"These are the items on the list in the letter you received yesterday."

The mood of seeing Fisch fell down at a speed visible to the naked eye, Professor McGonagall added: "But Diagon Alley does have a lot of food, which is not available in Hogsmeade Village."

"Then what are we waiting for?!"

Fisch immediately regained his vitality, grabbed Professor McGonagall's sleeve and ran out of the door. Professor McGonagall was dragged and staggered a few steps, and then he stabilised her figure and knocked Feishu on the head in angrily.

"We will go directly with Floo powder without going through the gate."

"Floo powder meow?"

"It's the glitter powder that you knocked over several times."

"Meow!" (●ΦωΦ●)

Fisch immediately understood what Floo powder were The thing was placed in a small clay pot and placed on the edge of the fireplace. Not only did he knock it over several times before, he also took the pot and sprinkled the powder all over the place, causing Comey to hit it for a long time. Wall.

Professor McGonagall brought Fisch to the fireplace, pinched a pinch of powder from the jar, and threw her hand into the fireplace.

With the input of the Floo powder, a green flame ignited in the originally dark fireplace, and the flames soared very high, shocking the curiously approaching Fisch.

"Don't worry, the magic fire of Floo powder can't hurt people."

Professor McGonagall reached into the fireplace and shook it a few times, stirring the flames in the fireplace constantly, and then drew out her undamaged arm and showed it to him to have a look.

"As long as you go in, call out the name of the broken cauldron bar, and then close your eyes and wait for the magic fire to send you to your destination."

Professor McGonagall explained the usage of Floo powder to Fisch, and she chose the destination as the Broken Cauldron Bar because there were several fireplace exits in Diagon Alley, and she was worried that Feishu would choose the wrong exit.

So it's safer to use the Broken Cauldron Bar, even if it will take more time because of the crowded Floo network.

"I will give you a demonstration first. Remember, you must speak clearly-the broken cauldron bar!"

Professor McGonagall said as she stepped into the flame of the fireplace, she disappeared in the blink of an eye.

　　 When Professor McGonagall disappeared, the aquamarine flame in the fireplace quickly extinguished, returning to its previous dark state.

"Meow? Minerva?"

carefully stuck his head into the fireplace, and Fisch throbbed his nose.

However, apart from the choking soot smell inside, there is no smell of Professor McGonagall at all.

"Master Fisch, Professor McGonagall should have arrived at the Broken Cauldron Bar by this time."

House elf Comy popped up beside Fisch and explained to him graciously.

"Oh..." Fisch gazed at the earthenware pot with Floo powder above the fireplace, "hehehehe..."

(●?ω?●)

"That... Master Fisch, if you call another name, it is very likely that you will be sent to a strange place."

After nearly three years of getting along, Comy is also familiar with Fisch's character, and he reminded him in time.

"If you go to other places, Professor McGonagall can't buy anything for you to eat."

"...Hey!"

Fisch curled his mouth unhappily, but in the end he extinguished his thoughts of running to other places. After all, it is more important to eat than to play. Following the example of Minerva, he pinched a pinch of Floo powder from the clay pot, and Fisch threw them into the fireplace in front of him. In the fireplace, turquoise flames ignited again, and Fisch stood in front of the fireplace. Fisch felt a rush of hot wind.

walked into the green flame full of curiosity Fisch closed his eyes and shouted, "Broken Cauldron Bar"

As his mouth opened, Fisch felt a scorching air mixed with a heavy smoke and fire pouring into his throat, almost making him unable to finish speaking smoothly.

Immediately afterwards, Fisch felt his body rotate involuntarily. He opened his eyes subconsciously, and all kinds of furnace doors flashed by in front of him. Even with his cat's dynamic vision, he could only see. After all, coupled with the deafening whistling sound in his ears, this made Fisch extremely irritable.

Just when Fisch was about to find a furnace door to jump out, the feeling of tumbling suddenly disappeared, and then Fisch felt as if someone was pushing him from behind, pushing him away. Pushed out of the newly-appearing furnace door.

Fish was supported by Professor McGonagall who was waiting outside as soon as he stepped out of the oven door, but even without Professor McGonagall, it is unlikely that he would fall over due to his balance.

"I don't like this meow."

Fisch, who walked out of the fireplace, shook his body abruptly, threw all the ashes off his body, and then grumbled to Professor McGonagall.

"This Floo powder is not comfortable at all."

Professor McGonagall ignored Fisch's complaint. She slapped the soot thrown from Fisch on her body, grabbed Fisch's hand and walked outside.

"Let's have breakfast at the Broken Cauldron Bar, and then go to Diagon Alley to buy the items on the list."

Hearing there was something to eat, Fisch immediately stopped complaining, but...

"Minerva, the list you mentioned... seems to have been torn apart by me ..."
