Chapter 563: Class Leader (1/4)
Chapter 563 Prefect (14)
"Huh? Didn't Mundungus stay for dinner, Mom? Didn't he have to be on duty today?"
At dinner time, George and Fred noticed that Mundungus did not appear at the table and asked curiously.
Since the twins advertised in the Daily Prophet, the joke shop's orders have increased a lot. They are in urgent need of a senior to guide them, and Mundungus, who is full of business knowledge, is naturally the best candidate.
Moreover, he can get a lot of magic materials that are inconvenient to buy. The twins have bought things from him several times.
"Mundungus said he had personal business to attend to," Mrs. Weasley replied, "probably with his cauldron business again."
"That's a shame," said Fred. "We still have something to ask him."
"You two, don't hang out with him!" Mrs. Weasley disliked Mundungus very much, and she warned: "He will lead you into trouble!"
"Molly is right," Fish nodded in agreement, "That guy is not a good person."
Ψ(Φ~Φ)婩
"How did he mess with you again, Fish?" George asked curiously.
Maomao's attitude towards a person can basically be seen from his name. Except for the first year when he only called others by nicknames, under normal circumstances, as long as there was no conflict, Feishu would call the other person directly. For people who have a little conflict, they call each other by their last name. Only very annoying people will not call each other regardless of their first or last name.
"He robbed Kreacher's things..." Fish told everyone what happened today while eating.
"No wonder I saw some redness and swelling on his head..." Mrs. Weasley pouted, "He deserves it! If Dumbledore hadn't insisted, the Order of the Phoenix wouldn't have absorbed such a scum!"
"Mundungus is still very useful. He can hear things that we can't hear." Sirius raised his eyebrows, then turned to Fish and said, "I will warn him."
Professor McGonagall frowned even more dissatisfied: "I want to tell Dumbledore that he must take care of Fletcher."
Affected by Fish, her name for Mundungus became unfamiliar, and she patted Maomao on the head and praised: "You did a good job today, Fish."
You know, in the past, the little fur cats would snatch candy in front of Mrs. Froome, and it often happened that they would take it for themselves without asking... But now, the cats know how to stop others from stealing, which makes Mai Professor Ge was very pleased.
"Hey hey~"
(`)
The cat was praised by its mother and shook its head, looking triumphant.
After the problem about Mundungus was resolved, Fish and the others returned to their unpretentious and boring days of staying indoors.
It wasn't until the day before school started that a few owls delivered the school opening notice and their book list for this semester.
But long before the book list came, Fish and the others already knew from Professor McGonagall what books they would buy this semester——
There are very few books to buy this year. Apart from "Standard Spells: Level 5" which needs to be upgraded every year, there is only one "Magic Defense Theory".
Of course, the "Standard Spell" that the twins and Ginny want to buy are slightly different, being the seventh and fourth levels of this series respectively.
"Obviously Minerva comes here often, why does Meow have to send another message?"
(〃`3〃)
After Fish received the letter, he threw it aside without even opening it, and muttered to Hermione who was opening the envelope.
"This is a necessary procedure." The twins also did not open the envelope. George explained to Fish with a playful smile: "There is always a sense of ritual in life, just like..." After thinking about it, he gave an example. So a perfect example, "Every time Charlie puts his socks on, he likes to put them in front of his nose and smell them."
"oh……"

Maomao blinked in confusion. Although he didn't quite understand it, it sounded very reasonable.
"Can't you give a better example?" Hermione rolled her eyes at George with disgust.
"Actually, we were wondering who ordered Slinka's book." Fred changed the subject for George.
"If nothing else, it should be someone from the Ministry of Magic." George said.
"What does this mean?" Harry asked curiously as he stuffed the opened envelope and parchment into his pocket.
"Oh, a few weeks ago, we used telescopic ears to eavesdrop on Mum and Dad's conversation." Fred replied: "Fudge seemed to be planning to interfere in Hogwarts affairs, and then Dumbledore was using this matter Let’s negotiate terms with Fudge.”
"I guess Dumbledore was laughing so hard behind his back," George said gloatingly, "That idiot Fudge, doesn't he know how hard it is to find a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts?"
Harry and others recalled what happened to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in the past few years. They all looked at Fish, and then snickered unkindly.
"Meow?"
ω
Maomao tilted his head in confusion, "Why are you looking at Feishi like that?"
"Oh! God!"
At this time, Hermione's exclamation came from the side.
Fish rushed to her side immediately and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you, Hermione?"
"Look, Fisch!"
Hermione excitedly showed him the badge in her hand. It was a gold and red badge with a big "P" on the Gryffindor lion.
Fish had seen such badges before. Percy and Sharpay, who had already graduated, had worn them.
"I'm a prefect!" Miss Know-It-All hugged Fish and shouted happily.
"As expected, besides you, is there any other candidate for the fifth grade?" George said with a pout.
The twins have always been quite disdainful of the position of prefect, thinking that they are all boring people like Percy. Even though their relationship with Percy has improved now, they still haven't changed this idea.
"So, there should be a male prefect..." Fred suddenly cast his eyes on the envelope that Fish had thrown aside.
"Quick! Fish, open it and take a look!"
Hermione quickly picked up the envelope and stuffed it into Mao Mao's hand.
Fish tore open the envelope, and a badge of the same appearance fell out of it.
"Great! You are also a prefect!" Hermione hugged Fish again and kissed him on the face excitedly.
"Shhh——"
Hearing the whistles of the twins next to her, Hermione, who was in a state of excitement, came back to her senses and let go of Fish with a red face.
Fish was holding the prefect badge, feeling a little puzzled...
(ω)
Although I don't know what the use of being a prefect is, seeing Hermione so happy, it should be a good thing, right?
The prefect system of Hogwarts is generally recommended by the dean to the principal, and then the principal decides. Normally, Dumbledore will not reject the dean's recommendation.
What Fish didn't know was that Professor McGonagall didn't recommend him as the prefect at the beginning, because she knew her cat too well. If the prefect was handed over to the cat, he would definitely not do anything, or he would mess things up.
But Dumbledore, who wanted to train Fish as his heir, had a different opinion.
He believed that the duties of the prefect could accelerate Fish's growth, and if someone else was chosen as the prefect, no matter who it was, he would definitely be isolated by most people in the school, just like Harry who was chosen as the warrior.
As for the prefect's affairs, wasn't Hermione still there to help?
From the fact that Fish received the prefect badge, it was obvious that Dumbledore finally convinced Professor McGonagall.
Soon, everyone in the house knew that Fish and Hermione had become prefects, and Mrs. Weasley was even busy organizing a celebration for them. She even hung a banner above the dining table, which read:
"Warm congratulations-Fish and Hermione-Elected Prefects"
Although Hermione was also very excited that she and Fish could become prefects, she still felt a little ashamed of Mrs. Weasley's behavior. On the contrary, Fish, who was still a little confused, became happy at this time-
So many delicious foods! Being a prefect is really a good thing!

Mao Mao stared at the sumptuous dinner on the dining table and thought to himself.
