Chapter 39 How to Feed Mrs. Norris Correctly (Please collect and recommend)

Kyle didn't know what Cedric and Qiu talked about in the hall, but he returned to the Hufflepuff common room with a smile.

Kyle was reading a book when a bulging bag fell from the sky and landed on the page of the book in his hand.

"Fuck... what the hell."

Kyle was startled, turned his head and looked at Cedric who was baring his teeth, and said with disgust: "What's wrong with you, did you pick up money? Why are you smiling so obscenely."

"This is much faster than picking up money."

Cedric squeezed onto Kyle's sofa and said excitedly: "Guess how much the maps we sold in Ravenclaw cost in total...

52 Sickles, 52 per person!"

Although Cedric used a question, he didn't wait for Kyle to answer, and said to himself:

"A few five-knut parchments, plus a few spells, can actually make so much money..."

"Wait."

Kyle became more and more confused as he listened, and could only interrupt Cedric who seemed to have drunk fake wine, and asked in confusion: 52 Sickles, shouldn't there be only 40? And what about the parchment. "

"It's like this..."

Cedric explained: "I went to the Ravenclaw Tower at noon and revised the route according to their needs. Qiu saw it and thought that the price could be appropriately increased, so it became this much in the end.

As for why parchment is used... This is actually a little trick of the copy spell.

For things like notes and maps, removing the most complicated parchment part and only copying the content can make the spell easier and the duration of the copy will be much longer. "

After listening, Kyle also understood why there were 12 more Sickles. The quality of the map has improved, and the price will naturally increase.

But the parchment is a bit redundant. In Kyle's opinion, those maps will be useless in a month at most. Cedric's doing this is really unnecessary.

Fortunately, the parchment is not that expensive. It only costs less than two Sickles in total, which is not worth mentioning compared to the final profit.

Not to mention that Cedric paid for it himself, which is the most important thing.

Kyle put away his Nasico and asked casually, "By the way, what is your impression of Qiu?"

"Qiu?" Cedric thought for a moment and said, "I think she is a very smart little witch, very upright, and has a good personality. She should be a good friend."

"No more?" Kyle frowned.

"Well... big, generous?" Cedric asked tentatively.

"Forget it, don't say it."

Kyle rubbed his forehead. Although it was a bit early now, he never thought that Cedric's first impression of Qiu was that she was very upright...

Who the hell describes a girl as upright!

That's it, I'm tired.

Kyle closed the book, stood up and walked towards the common room corridor.

"Are you going out?" Cedric asked.

Kyle replied, "I'll go feed the cat."

"Okay."

Cedric responded and didn't care. He lowered his head and began to count his Sickles. While counting, he muttered, "Haha, I didn't expect that I could earn pocket money. This feeling is great. I must write to my father to tell him the news."

Kyle, who had just walked into the wooden passage, heard this and silently sympathized with the Ministry of Magic staff for a second.

It seems that Mr. Diggory has something new to show off. I just hope they can get used to it as soon as possible.

...

Leaving the Hufflepuff common room, Kyle deliberately made a lot of noise in the corridor.

He is a man of his words. Since he said he would bring dried fish to Mrs. Norris, he naturally couldn't break his promise.

Another point is the failure of "Professor Mewg's feeding plan".

Although Kyle has tried hard to convince himself, and he knows that this thing is impossible to accomplish, after all, he has been looking forward to it for so long, and he still feels that the idea is not reasonable.

In any case, he has to feed the cat today, and it's useless for Dumbledore to come.

Although Mrs. Norris is not a tabby, at least they are both cats, and they look similar, so they can barely be considered a substitute.

In less than three minutes, with Kyle's continuous noise, Mrs. Norris came over, and with her was Filch.

"Aha, I caught you, little wizard making noise in the corridor." Filch tilted his head and looked at Kyle with ill intention: "I'm going to put you in detention!"

"Sorry, Mr. Filch, I think you may have remembered it wrong." Kyle said calmly: "School Rule 22 clearly states that making loud noises in the corridor outside of curfew hours will be punished with a verbal warning, and detention will be imposed only after three cumulative times."

"I know, you don't need to remind me!"

Filch looked furious, and said gloomily: "Are you good at memorizing school rules? What's the use of memorizing them well? You still commit crimes knowingly!

I will watch you, you'd better never make mistakes, otherwise I will definitely catch you."

"There will never be such a day." Kyle said with a smile: "In addition, Mr. Filch, the reason I did this is just to find Mrs. Norris.

You know, Hogwarts is so big, it's not easy to find a cat, this is the fastest way."

"What do you want to do!" Filch's eyes instantly became alert: "I warn you, it's best not to have any bad ideas about my cat, otherwise I will risk my life to make you pay the price!"

"You think too much, I just want to thank it." Kyle explained: "My roommate had an accident this morning, and it was it that took me to the school hospital. This is my thank you gift."

As he said, Kyle also took out the bag of dried fish and took out one from it and tried to feed it to Mrs. Norris.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Norris didn't even look at it.

Filch sneered on the side: "Don't waste your energy, it only eats the food I feed it."

"Then you feed it." Kyle handed the bag in his hand to Filch and said: "Don't worry, it's just a simple dried fish, you can go to the professor for help to check."

"No need, we don't need this!" Filch said with a cold face.

"Don't be so quick to refuse. This is a thank-you gift from a little wizard." Kyle said casually, "Besides, dried long-bearded barracuda is a high-end product. One bag costs ten Galleons, and it is in short supply. It is the top cat food in the magic world. I finally got it."

Filch hesitated.

If it was ordinary dried fish, he would definitely not dare to take the risk of feeding it to Mrs. Norris, but if it was long-bearded barracuda...

Kyle was right. This kind of dried fish is indeed the top cat food. Filch once thought about giving Mrs. Norris such a gift at Christmas.

But he couldn't buy it.

It's not that he has no money. Although the salary of a janitor is not high, Filch lives in Hogwarts, with free food and accommodation, and he doesn't need to spend money on weekdays. He has some savings over the years.

But the problem is that whether it is Diagon Alley or Hogsmeade, this kind of dried fish is always out of stock, and you can't buy it even if you have money.

Filch smelled the dried fish in his hand carefully, and after making sure there was no peculiar smell, he looked up at Kyle and said, "You'd better not lie to me."

"Poisoning the janitor's cat is no small matter." Kyle said frankly, "I'm only in the first grade, and I don't want to be expelled so early."

Filch thought about it, and it seemed to be true. If something happened to Mrs. Norris, Kyle would definitely not be able to escape.

"Go ahead, and pretend I didn't see you this time."

"Thank you."

Kyle walked straight forward, and when he passed by Mrs. Norris, he threw the dried fish he had been holding to her.

"By the way, I'll leave this to you too."

This time, Mrs. Norris did not refuse. After seeing Filch nod slightly, she stood up and caught the dried fish, and ate it all in two or three bites.
