The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

After listening to Fox's words, Tom took two seconds to realize: Is this Phoenix threatening him? ! Looking at Fox's proud look, Tom felt that Fox's image was crumbling.

The original Fawkes: partner of justice, the summoned beast of the great Dumbledore, and a sacred symbol.

Now Fox: The big fiery red bird who takes advantage of the situation and extorts money from poor orphan students.

Fox, please open your eyes and see, can you bear it? How could you attack a weak, helpless and pitiful poor student like me? Apart from a handsome face and a girlfriend who comes from a well-off family and is fair-skinned and beautiful, I really have nothing!

Tom was extremely shocked, but if he thought about it carefully, Fawkes was Dumbledore's good partner, and considering Dumbledore's behavior, it didn't seem strange that Fawkes would do such a thing.

Hermione also understood what Fox said. She covered her mouth and laughed, "Fox, Professor Snape can't understand you."

Tom shook his head feebly. He felt that Hermione had underestimated this rogue phoenix.

Sure enough, Fox flew very close to the ground, stretched out a paw, and began to write and draw on the ground. Soon, a line of crooked words appeared on the sand.

Tom \u0026 Hermione:…

Fox: Proud.jpg

Tom sighed, "Okay, it's up to you." He was simply speechless: Who taught this phoenix to write! Dumbledore, are you so free?

Tom misunderstood Dumbledore. Fox, as a phoenix, is an extremely intelligent magical animal. In addition, it squatted in Dumbledore's office day after day with nothing to do, so it developed some strange skills, such as reading...

"Hey! (In addition to grass dragon ribs and peppermint, I also want meat! The meat of magical animals!)"

Tom said angrily: "Dumbledore is starving you? Why don't you talk about food?"

When Dumbledore was mentioned, a trace of anger actually appeared on Fox's face: "Yes, he did provide me with a lot of food, but when he got older, he just believed the nonsense in those reference books and gave me What kind of healthy diet do I do!”

Listening to Fox's complaints, Tom realized that after Voldemort was defeated, Dumbledore's burden was much lighter, so he had the energy to read some leisure books, such as "Large-scale Poultry Breeding Manual", because He usually read a lot of books about raising birds, so he also summed up a strange feeding experience - it is absolutely healthy and nutritious, but there is only one problem, that is, it is unpalatable.

The food he provided to Fox, compared to human food, was probably boiled broccoli and steamed chicken breast every day. If it were an ordinary pet, it would probably be enough to eat, and maybe the food would be quite delicious, but Fox was The Phoenix, who is very understanding of human nature and as intelligent as a human being, found this food very difficult to accept.

It's been putting up with this for a long time...and Tom is its best chance of getting out of it.

"I am Phoenix, Phoenix, do you understand?" Fox stamped his paws on the sand angrily, "I don't need to eat healthy at all!"

Tom:…

Hermione whispered to Tom: "It looks so pitiful, or we..."

Tom nodded, realizing that this seemed like a good opportunity? It can bring him and Fox closer.

So under Fox's rather unfriendly expression, he put his hand into his backpack that had been casted with a traceless expansion spell, rummaged through it for a while, and finally found the box where he stored the basilisk meat. In line with the principle of making the best use of the basilisk that he killed back then, Tom disassembled it and packed it all into a box. This box was extraordinary. It contained quite good insurance magic, so much so that Tom took it out now. The pieces of meat are still fresh.

Fox's attention was immediately attracted by the piece of meat in Tom's hand.

"Hey! (What is this?)"

"Snake king meat." Snake king is an elegant way of saying basilisk, which is like the difference between awesome and ox-happy.

Fox:!

"Where did you get that?"

"Don't worry about it. Are you going to eat it or not?" Tom curled his lips. There are no basilisks anywhere else these days. It's probably only Hogwarts that still has basilisks.

Fox: "If this is basilisk meat, I will definitely eat it."

Tom was a little impatient, "Can I still lie to you?" He said, caressing the basilisk meat, cut a piece of meat along the texture, and handed it to Fox's mouth. Fox stretched out his head, took it in his mouth, raised his head, and swallowed it in one gulp.

After swallowing the basilisk sashimi in one gulp, Fox's eyes lit up: The meat slices tasted great, it could be said to melt in your mouth, and tasted good. The venom of the basilisk brought a very strange feeling and was very nutritious. , Fox could feel the rich magic power emitted when the piece of meat was digested in his stomach.

Looking at Fox's appearance, Tom felt happy. It seemed that the basilisk meat was very appetizing to him.

With just one bite, Fox fell in love with this cut of meat. It no longer intends to delve into what kind of meat it is - as long as it's not phoenix meat, that's fine. Fox moved forward eagerly and wanted to take another bite, but was stopped by Tom.

"You take us back to Sheffield first, and then I'll give you the rest of the meat."

Fox tilted his head, a little confused: "Why don't you just go back to Hogwarts?"

"No," Tom looked into the distance, not knowing what he was looking at, "there is still something waiting for me to pick up in Sheffield."

The emerald slabs of Menes!

It is placed in a research room at the University of Sheffield along with other unearthed artifacts, and is protected by extremely tight surveillance. Trying to sneak into the school and steal it would be an impossible task. But for Tom, this was not difficult. All protective measures are designed to protect against humans, and Tom can circumvent this restriction.

Dementors are creatures of darkness. It has a very powerful passive, which is that they are invisible to Muggles and Muggle electronics.

Tom first determined the location of the slate, then transformed into a dementor and went to the room where the emerald slate was located according to his feeling. Along the way, he forced himself to ignore the large and small emotional color balls, and walked towards the house where the stone slab was hidden. After becoming a dementor, his interests also changed subtly. The happiness of living people was full of attraction for him, but fortunately he could restrain it.

And along the way, although Tom passed by countless Muggles, none of them could see Tom. They could only feel that the surroundings suddenly seemed to have become much colder, and their mood suddenly dropped.

But what surprised him was that when he entered the room, he found that there was someone inside, and this person could also see him!
