A certain Hogwarts magical cat

Chapter 216 The Rich Meow
Charlie recalled the conversation Dumbledore had with him yesterday,

Late last night, as soon as he released the Patronus outside the castle, he saw Dumbledore standing above the castle, waiting for him to appear.

Being caught by Dumbledore on the spot, Charlie was still a little embarrassed, but it was only a little embarrassing. After all, he had expected the current situation.
In the past half a month, he has beaten almost all the magical animals in the Black Lake. It is impossible for the mermaid not to ask Dumbledore for help. It will be a matter of time before Dumbledore finds him.

And for this, he was already prepared.

"Charlie, why did you attack the mermaids? Did they offend you?"

Above the castle, under the moonlight, Dumbledore's tone was not too harsh, but he asked Charlie a little curiously.

Charlie shrugged and replied:

"That's not true, but professor, you need to know that mermaids are also fish, shouldn't cats be interested in fish?"

"Forehead"

Hearing Charlie's answer, Dumbledore was also taken aback,
This seems to make sense,

Although Charlie's Patronus is now in human form, he is essentially a cat, and it seems normal for cats to catch fish.

"Charlie, you are not an ordinary cat, and the mermaid is not an ordinary fish. You have been going to the Black Lake to trouble them, and I am also very embarrassed!"

Dumbledore thought for a while and tried to persuade,
Although what Charlie said was reasonable, he definitely couldn't let Charlie go to the Black Lake to harass the mermaids every day.

Charlie nodded and explained:
"Actually, I was just a little curious, and I didn't intend to target them. It's just that they always made the first move, and I just fought back in self-defense.
You see, every time I just stun them, I didn't really hurt them. Now that the professor has spoken, I won't go to the Black Lake! "

"This, why do you mean that it is the mermaid's fault!"

Dumbledore frowned, recalling the memory he saw from the mermaid,
Then he found that it seemed that the mermaid really did it every time, and Charlie basically fought back because of self-defense.

Although in the end, the mermaid was beaten badly.

In fact, except when Charlie went to Black Lake on the first day, he would deliberately provoke him. From the second day on, as long as the mermaid saw him, he would come up to him without saying a word.

Therefore, most of the memories that Dumbledore saw did not show Charlie actively attacking the mermaid, but the mermaid actively attacking Charlie.

"The Black Lake is theoretically divided into mermaids, and it can be regarded as their territory. If you have nothing to do, you should not go there. I will also tell the mermaids not to attack you again next time I see you!"

Dumbledore finally explained with some helplessness.

"No problem at all!"

Charlie agreed very decisively.

Anyway, he has almost cleaned up the Black Lake, and some fish that slipped through the net don't have much experience, so it doesn't matter.

Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction seeing Charlie's upright attitude,

Although Charlie is a cat, he feels very sensible, which is incomparable to many young wizards at Hogwarts.

"By the way, your patron saint is very good. You can spend more time in the castle if you have nothing to do. It's not bad to stop some little wizards from playing pranks like before!"

Finally, Dumbledore winked at Charlie and flew away.

The little wizard's pranks are actually not important to Dumbledore, the main reason is that Charlie's Patronus is really good at fighting, and he always feels that there seems to be some danger lurking in the castle, so he wants to remind Charlie to pay more attention.

"Harry, let's play a game of wizard chess, Hermione is not my opponent at all!"

In the Gryffindor common room, Ron saw Harry crawling out of the fat lady's hole, and shouted triumphantly.

"What is not an opponent, I was just careless just now, let's have another game!"

Hermione, who is omnipotent in everything, is slightly inferior to Ron only when playing wizard chess, and Ron, who is often hated by Hermione, can only find the happiness of defeating the big devil Hermione in wizard chess.

"No, you should go down, I'm so tired, I just want to lie down for a while!"

Harry slumped from exhaustion on the sofa and replied.

"Why, Wood has increased the amount of training for you again!"

Alice closed the potion book in her hand and asked.

Harry slumped on the sofa and nodded:
"Yeah, today we trained continuously for four full hours without taking a break, and I feel like my butt is numb!"

"I think Wood is mainly afraid of Slytherin's Nimbus 2001!"

While rearranging the wizard chess set, Ron interjected,

And Hermione frowned a little dissatisfied:

"Actually, it's not fair. Everyone should use the same broomstick for the competition!"

"No way, Light Wheel 2001's speed is really fast, and the first Quidditch match against Slytherin is less than two weeks away. Wood doesn't want us to beat Slytherin last year and be overtaken by them this year!"

Harry explained with some concern.

The Weasley brothers have secretly watched the training of the Slytherin team. The speed of the Nimbus 2001 is indeed much faster than the broomsticks they use, and only Harry's Nimbus 2000 can barely keep up.

At this moment, Charlie also came back from his memories. He looked at Harry on the sofa and suddenly said:

"Harry, do you want everyone on your team to have a Nimbus 2001?"

"Well, of course, but that is an impossible thing, no one will give each of us a gift, the most expensive and fastest Nimbus 2001!"

Hearing Charlie's question, although Harry was a little puzzled, he quickly expressed his thoughts.

"Actually, that's not impossible. As long as you are willing to do Meow a small favor, Meow can give you seven Light Wheels 2001 in return!"

Hearing Charlie's words, not only Harry got up from the sofa all of a sudden, but Hermione and Ron also stopped playing wizard chess instantly, and turned their heads to look at Charlie in shock.

Even though Alice was a little surprised, her reaction wasn't particularly big.

Because Alice has a deep understanding of Charlie's wealth. Last year, Charlie spent a total of five thousand gold Galleons on the custom-made special "flying broomstick".

Although Nimbus 2001 is expensive, seven of them added up are definitely not as expensive as Charlie's customized "flying broom".

So she wasn't particularly surprised by what Charlie said just now.

But it is different for Harry, Hermione and Ron,

In their eyes, although Charlie could communicate with them after he became an adult, he also possessed powerful strength and magical abilities beyond ordinary magical animals.
But in the end he was just a cat, Alice's pet,
Alice's parents were both Muggles, and Alice only had one hundred Galleons in exchange for a year. Where did Charlie get the Galleons, and gave them seven Nimbus 2001.
