Chapter 712: The Fattened Cat

In a short while, the door to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office was knocked on.

"Professor Luohate, are you in?"

Hermione calmed her tense mood and greeted like a shy young witch.

"Come in, my dear Miss Granger, I am preparing the content for the next class."

Luohate held a copy of "Magical Me"; Hermione believed he would rather clip his hair than prepare the content for the next class.

"Professor, we have established a small fan club, not far from here, we hope you can come and see..."

Hermione said according to the plan.

"Ah, my good assistant."

Luohate revealed a smile he thought was charming, then pretended to be thinking.

Hermione thought he would agree in the end, but Hermione said again:

"Professor, can you bring at least fifty signed photos... I think everyone..."

Her words interrupted Luohate's pretentious thinking.

"Fifty... thank you for the reminder, my dear Miss Granger, yes, this is an important matter.

To tell the truth, this seems a bit arrogant. But one day in the future, you will also be like me, needing to carry a stack of photos wherever you go."

He chuckled.

"Everyone is looking forward to you coming."

Hermione felt nauseated inside, but still pretended to be shy and said.

"What a pity, dear Granger, you should have come earlier. I am recently researching an ancient and powerful magic.

This is an incredibly important magic, after all, my task is to teach you to defend against the most evil things known to the Wizarding World."

Luohate said with a pretentious smile.

Hermione was stunned, and immediately she felt cold sweat seeping from the back of her neck.

How could she have forgotten!

Tomorrow is the weekend, the day of the Dueling Club activity.

And Professor Sineipu, who had been in an extremely bad mood recently, had not spared Luohate, and Luohate was trying to find a way to escape!

How could she have offered him such a good opportunity.

"Oh, alright, I will explain to them, everyone will understand..."

Hermione pretended to be very disappointed, but her heart was cold.

The plan was to be postponed, she thought, but after the weekend, Luohate would still agree.

But she had to find a way to preserve the Veritaserum, and for this, she could only seek help from Sean.

"Tell him that matter."

At this moment, a very low voice sounded; this voice was controlled by a special magic, and only wizards within a very small range could hear it.

Just like now, only Hermione heard Sean's words.

"Are you sure? Sean?"

Hermione pretended to be disappointed and muttered to herself, asking Sean.

"Hmm."

Sean's voice was very shallow.

"I understand."

Hermione replied.

When Luohate was smiling and looking at Hermione, Hermione suddenly raised her head and said with feigned annoyance:

"That is truly a pity, Professor Luohate, we finally invited Mr. Hermes.

He is publishing an alchemy book at the request of the International Alchemical Association, which is why he agreed to our invitation.

He even wanted to ask you for advice on how to write a book—"

Hermione sighed, then secretly glanced at Luohate.

"What did you say?"

Luohate stood up.

"That gentleman sent us an email, look, this is what he had the owl send along."

Hermione took out a small cookie, and the cat head on the cookie was purring.

"Oh, of course—oops, of course, he should be looking for me.

Six consecutive months at the top of the bestseller list, what an unprecedented achievement, I must go, I must go..."

Luohate paced in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.

Half a year ago, Dumbledore found him, offered him a job at Hogwarts, and hinted that he could teach Harry, who was a second-year student at the time, and being the teacher of "famous Harry" could gain him higher popularity than doing other things.

So he hesitated for a while and accepted this job.

Now, he would not let go of the opportunity either.

He had originally thought that becoming Harry Potter's teacher was enough to make him famous for a while, but he didn't expect that he would even have the chance to be included in a Chocolate Frog card.

Just think about it, after this book is published, what kind of title will the Wizarding World give him...

It is truly something to look forward to.

"Of course, I need to guide him, this is indisputable, and only I can. So, Miss Granger, the most outstanding student in the whole grade, can you tell me where my Hermes... fan club is?"

Luohate hung a flamboyant smile.

"I will take you there right now!"

Hermione curled her lip, then hurriedly recovered.

She had long known that this guy was someone who would stop at nothing for fame, but seeing him be so blatant, she still almost couldn't hide her disdain.

Luohate followed Hermione out of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, excited yet with a hint of suspicion.

In this office, several Luohate portraits were chattering and praising.

"You will become the most famous wizard!"

The painting of Luohate said.

"Sage and Master!"

The watering Luohate said.

"Greatest wizard!"

The bowing Luohate said.

These words completely caused the real Luohate to lose his judgment; he only felt flushed with excitement, the future was promising.

Evening, corridor.

This place had always only had frequent activities by members of the Castle Spirit Cat Club; now, when they passed the black cat statue, they could see young wizards bringing various small dried fish to pray for blessings.

Their fish would always disappear the next day; Hermione had once noticed Mrs. Norris enjoying them in the corner without any politeness.

Her body had fattened by a whole circle, from skin and bones to a normal body shape; of course, now it was developing in the direction of a fat cat.

As the leading wizard in feeding, Hannah didn't look annoyed at all; her eyes were shining as she said:

"Mrs. Norris is the administrator of the castle, and the real Hogwarts Castle is the Lucky Spirit Cat, how can we interrupt the feeding of its dear servant?"

Hermione felt that the young wizards could be considered to be doing one good deed a day.

Therefore, she let it be.

Passing the Castle Spirit Cat statue, and climbing up a few more floors, the tapestry of Barnabas the Barmy trying to teach trolls to dance ballet was opposite. ===== CHAPTER 713 =====
