Chapter 221 English Gentleman
"I told you! I should have bought Knockturn Alley before!"
On the chessboard, a chess piece in a blue wizard robe complained loudly to Dumbledore. He had just been charged a large sum of money by a chess piece in a yellow wizard robe when passing through the Knockturn Alley area.
Dumbledore smiled and said nothing, but once again tossed the dice in his hand.
"Awesome! Yes!"
The red chess piece cheered happily, and before Dumbledore could take action, he moved forward one square, and then shouted loudly to Dumbledore: "I want to buy Thornleaf Road! In this way, this area will be
It’s all mine!”
The chess pieces of other colors all let out an annoyed sigh.
"Did you cheat for him? Why is the red one so lucky?!" The blue chess piece yelled at Dumbledore again, "Don't forget, I am the chess piece that represents you!"
"I won't cheat. Didn't we win last time?" Dumbledore retorted with a smile: "I can only say that the red chess piece was a bit too lucky today."
"Stop talking nonsense! It's my turn to go! Throw the dice!"
The green chess piece on the side screamed and urged, and Dumbledore also picked up the dice and threw it out.
What he is playing now is of course the Magic Monopoly developed by the twins.
Like Wizard Chess, the chess pieces of Magic Monopoly also have their own ideas, so even if Dumbledore is alone, he can still have fun playing...
He only needs to control one of the chess pieces, while the other chess pieces move according to their own ideas, and he just helps throw the dice.
Of course, with the abilities of the twins, it is naturally impossible to make the chess pieces so intelligent. Dumbledore was able to play like this simply because he specially upgraded the chess board after he bought it back.
After being upgraded by Dumbledore, the chess pieces of this set of Magic Monopoly suddenly became much smarter. The chess pieces made by the twins before could only express some simple emotions and would not give instructions to the players.
I don’t know if it’s because these chess pieces are all made by twins. After their intelligence has improved, they all have a bit of a whiny personality, and they like to use props to harm people.
Even so, this set of Magic Monopoly is still very interesting when played alone. After all, this game is different from wizard chess. It does not require any skills, it is purely about luck.
Therefore, even if the chess pieces move according to their own ideas, they can still be evenly matched, instead of being killed by Dumbledore after three strikes, five divisions and two like in wizard chess.
But now Dumbledore is a little absent-minded...
According to past experience, Fish should have finished his homework by this time and ran to Professor McGonagall to listen to the story. However, he waited outside the corridor on the eighth floor for so long and did not see the kitten.
Although he was a little puzzled, Dumbledore did not have too much doubt and thought that Fish had slipped out.
Because Fish occasionally chooses to stay in the dormitory and play with other classmates instead of going out for a walk. Especially when the weather gets cold, he spends most of his time in the dormitory warming up by the fire.
Although it has not yet reached the level of freezing and snowfall, the temperature is actually quite low, so it is normal for Feixu to be unable to come out.
What's more, Fei Xu has been followed by him recently and has been unable to find a solution. It is possible that he stayed in the dormitory to think of a solution.
As for letting the house elves send Fish out directly, Dumbledore was not worried, because except for Komi, who had "rebelled", the other house elves still gave Dumbledore's orders the highest priority.
Whenever Komi makes any changes, other elves will come to inform him.
Fish also knew about this because he had used this method before and was soon caught up by Dumbledore.
And those elves did not hide this matter from Fish, and there was no need for Fish to ask. When Comey sent him out of the dormitory, other elves came to him and reported the matter to Dumbledore.
.
So after leaving Myrtle's bathroom, Fish continued to remain invisible. He did not go to the kitchen to replenish food, but wandered around the castle.
He wanted to try to see if he could meet the murderer who attacked Mrs. Norris while being invisible.
Of course, this was all in vain. Fish walked around the castle several times. Except for the patrolling professor and Filch who had been hanging around the fourth floor, he saw no one else...
By the way, there is another Dumbledore who is also hiding, playing Magic Monopoly in the corridor on the eighth floor and waiting for the cat.
After confirming that he would get nothing again tonight, Fish still did not choose to let Comey send him back to the dormitory, nor did he directly use the password to pass the Fat Madam... After all, Dumbledore was in the corridor outside, and he would definitely be discovered if he did so.
.
Even if Harry no longer lends him the Invisibility Cloak, Fish doesn't want to reveal that he sneaked out.
It's not that he is thinking about Harry, but after being exposed, there is a high chance that Dumbledore will complain to Professor McGonagall.
Fei Xu didn't want to be caught by the nagging Minerva and asked endless questions.
So after discovering that Dumbledore was still guarding the corridor outside the dormitory, Fish turned around and went to the Room of Requirement on the same floor. He found a cat's nest that was quite pleasing to the eye, got in and fell asleep.
.
…
"Here, your invisibility cloak, meow."
(●ΦwΦ●)つ
On Saturday morning, Fish returned to the dormitory and returned Harry's invisibility cloak.
"Can I ask, where did you go last night?"
Harry took the Invisibility Cloak, stuffed it back into the box, and then asked cautiously.
"Fix went to investigate the secret room, but unfortunately he didn't find anything, meow..."
(??v?v??)
When talking about this matter, the kitten's ears immediately drooped and its beautiful brows knitted together.
This feeling of wanting to avenge a friend but not being able to find the culprit is really terrible.
"Don't talk about this anymore, meow!"
Fish shook his head and put aside this troublesome matter for Maomao.
"After breakfast on the first floor, we will go to Minerva's place to listen to a story. Fish is going to play in the Forbidden Forest, and we will have dinner in the centaurs tribe at noon. Harry, didn't you say you wanted to go with us?
?You shouldn’t have anything else to do at noon today, right?”
Fish will never forget his weekend trip to the Forbidden Forest. Yesterday, he also agreed to take Harry to the centaurs. What's more, he also wanted to find other animals in the Forbidden Forest to help destroy the diary.
I'll give it a try.
Harry also thought of Fish's promise to him yesterday, and his little face instantly turned red.
"Um……"
Although his face was flushed with heat, Harry still nodded and responded in a soft but firm voice.
He simply likes centaurs' food, and he doesn't want to see Korra and other female centaurs like Fish said!
He, Harry Potter, is going to prove to Fish today that he is a traditional and elegant English gentleman!
