The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Chapter 59 The shit shovel officer

A poop scooper, literally means a person who takes care of pets' daily life and helps them scoop poop. Of course, different animals have different names for shoveling poop. A Pegasus shoveling poop can be called Bi Mawen.

Tom is Noble's chief shit shoveler.

However, although the act of raising a dragon sounds high-end, it is actually very painful. It’s not a big deal if you raise a cat or dog and get scratched, but if you raise a dragon and you get bitten or scratched by it, you will have to go to the campus hospital. Ron encountered misfortune while feeding Norbert: his right hand was bitten by Norbert, and it swelled up the next day, and green pus even oozed out.

What's even worse is that dragons can breathe fire. When he was born, Norbert was a dragon-shaped lighter, but as he grew larger, the flame gradually upgraded from a lighter to a gas stove. A large area of ​​skin was burned without a single breath of dragon's breath.

In addition, Norbert was too restless, restless and curious, so it became increasingly difficult to raise him. Hagrid is also big-hearted, and Norbert has shown an obvious childish side, but he acts as if he has not seen it, and often says the classic line: "It's still a child!"

As Norbert's body grew, so did his appetite. For the first week, he only drank a little chicken blood brandy, and then he began to eat large chunks of meat. The recipes are very wide, ranging from dead mice to fish from the black lake.

And Noble's eating habits are also very interesting. Most other animals eat raw food, but as a fire dragon, it is reasonable for Norbert to process the ingredients. Since it roasted the mouse with a mouthful of dragon breath, it has opened up a new world, and it is a joy to eat barbecue every day.

After Tom discovered this feature, he had an idea. For the next few meals, he served Norbert some barbecue with some seasonings on it, much to Norbert's liking. Soon, Norbert disliked eating raw meat.

But since becoming obsessed with barbecue, Norbert doesn't like to move much - and that's a good thing. Every day it squats by the fire, waiting for Tom or others to feed it, and rarely moves to its nest. Tom even suspected that if six pillars were inserted around Nob in the morning, he might still be in the circle surrounded by the pillars in the afternoon.

Cooked meat is easier to digest than raw meat. Coupled with the reduced amount of exercise, Norbert actually gained weight. The whole dragon no longer looked as shriveled as when it first hatched. Norbert became rounder, commonly known as "baby fat."

Of course, although Long is a bit of a homebody, he still has a great temper. Whenever the amount of food is not enough or the taste is not to your liking, Noble will simply throw a flame. At first, Tom forbeared for Hagrid's sake, but after being slapped in the face by the Dragon's Breath over and over again, the clay figurine also got quite angry. Besides, Tom's own tolerance for naughty children was also limited.

So Tom decided that education should start from childhood! It's time to help Hagrid discipline this fat dragon.

The sun was shining in the sky, and Norbert slept in. Suddenly, its fleshy hind legs twitched twice, and the fat dragon woke up from its sleep. It counted the time and found that the poop shoveler hadn't brought the food yet. It couldn't help but became furious and blew out two puffs of thick smoke from its nostrils.

When it saw the familiar figure, it was immediately hit with a strong breath of dragon breath, but the shit shovel easily dodged it, and then——

"Fluorescence flashes, clear water is like a spring, and the body is frozen!"

Tom directly pressed three buttons in succession, first a lighting spell that blinded Norbert's eyes, then a water-creating spell to slap his face, and finally a freezing spell to freeze Norbert. A set of combos was completed in one go, and Norbert was stunned. Immediately afterwards, Hagrid's sheets seemed to come to life, wrapping Norbert tightly like a rice dumpling, and a rope was lifted from the ground. head, and tied its mouth.

Now Norbert was completely unable to move as if he was sealed. Tom couldn't help but feel very pleased: he was pretty good at transfiguration and spells! Moreover, the position of the rope on the mouth is very clever, just in the blind spot. Even if Noble is mutated and can breathe fire from his nostrils, he will not be burned.

Norbert: "Wow! (Mortals, don't overstep your bounds!)"

Tom directly took off one of his shoes, tapped Norbert's nose, and then made another clean water. The rope was slightly loosened, and then tightened again when there was light of fire. After repeating this several times, Norbert became more honest, and there was great doubt in the little dragon's eyes.

When Tom loosened the rope around its mouth again, it was very honest and did not make any trouble.

So Tom squatted in front of it with his shoes, knocked on its big head, and said after knocking: "Make you spit fire!"

"Make you angry!"

"Let you go crazy and demolish the house!"

"Let you..."

Whenever Norbert wanted to resist, the rope and water would hit his face in time. Norbert, whose body was controlled, was powerless to fight back in front of Tom. It wasn't until finally, when Norbert resigned himself to his fate, that Tom completely loosened his grip on him. Even when the sheets were removed, Norbert still lay there obediently, standing out as a well-behaved person.

Norbert didn't put up any resistance because he understood that the black-skinned demon in front of him (Tom's wizard robe was black) was no match for him. His own flames couldn't hurt him, and he also knew some weird tricks. , can make oneself unable to move.

Of course, for a thick-skinned fire dragon, those actions just made it uncomfortable, but would not cause any real harm. What Tom just did was just to establish authority. The previous Norbert's attitude towards Tom was: If he brings me food every day, then I must be a god. Tom hopes that Norbert understands: I provide you with food every day, and I am your god!

For social animals, it is necessary to establish authority and make them think that you have a higher status than them. As for the fire dragon, an animal with obvious territorial divisions, you need to let it know that it is now in your territory!

After a friendly and cordial interaction, Noble admitted that Tom was superior to him and that Tom was the master of this territory.

Soon, Tom and Norbert established a conditioned reflex. As long as Tom took out his "magic shoes", Norbert would unconsciously shiver and then calm down.

Shortly after Tom and Norbert develop a further relationship, Hagrid walks in carrying a bunch of field mice. He walked over to Norbert, stretched out his big hand and rubbed its head.

Although Hagrid looked careless, he was actually prepared. He was confident that he could avoid Norbert's dragon breath. As for being bitten or scratched a few times by it, it is not a big deal to the hybrid giant.

Norbert indeed bared his fangs, and there was a flame brewing in his throat, but Tom next to him took off his shoes and waved them, and Norbert suddenly became silent. It lay on the floor obediently and let Hagrid rub its big head.
