Hogwarts: I am Harry's Cousin

Chapter 147 145. I know a little bit of cat language

"Bold design."

Dumbledore saw the general principle of the red and white ball at a glance: "It's a very delicate structure, which reminds me of an old friend of mine who passed away not long ago."

Speaking of which, Dumbledore rarely showed a trace of nostalgia: "It's completely different from his design concept. I really want to introduce you to each other. He will definitely like you."

"A little trick, it's not worth mentioning." Dudley said very modestly.

Snape raised his head proudly, as if Dudley had been taught by him.

Although it is true to say so.

Then Dumbledore's eyes fell on the very healthy mandrake he had cultivated: "Maybe I have a kid who will also like you, and I have the opportunity to introduce you."

Magical animals and magical plants have never been separated.

"It is my pleasure, Professor Dumbledore."

With the mandrake, the potion to de-petrify is not something with a high degree of difficulty, and it was brewed in a short while.

After only two drops, Mrs. Norris' fur, which was as hard as a stone, tended to soften.

A few drops again. Mrs. Norris's body also began to become soft, and the temperature also followed.

"Although my skills are a little bit worse than mine, it's quite remarkable to be able to do this." Lockhart brazenly bullied Lai endlessly there, but no one present would take his words seriously. Everything, including Filch.

"The petrification has been lifted, so what kind of creature petrified Mrs. Norris, such a thing wandering around Hogwarts, I don't think it is a safe thing."

Speaking of safety, Dumbledore's tone was a little helpless. He still remembered that he had promised Dudley that Hogwarts was the safest place.

"It must be Medusa." Lockhart said to himself: "I met a Medusa when I was adventuring in Armenia. You know, I subdued a werewolf there. It was mentioned in my work "Wandering with Werewolves". If I didn't react quickly enough."

Even if there is only a professor here, Lockhart still does not forget to attract attention and promote his books along the way.

Lockhart's words are not completely unreasonable, but Medusa, a magical creature like this, does have the ability to petrify, but England is not the place where Medusa was produced. That kind of creature is a special product of Greece, even in the vast forbidden forest. There is no reason for a Medusa to appear in .

But if not Medusa, what magical creature would it be?

The professors were struggling with this. Not even Dumbledore could guess the answer.

But there is a dangerous creature wandering around Hogwarts anyway.

Cormac thought he didn't see it, so the only one who saw the other party's true face was 'Mrs. Norris'.

You can't ask Mrs. Norris.

Talking to cats doesn't seem to be impossible. Dumbledore thought of someone.

"Mrs. Norris said...she saw a huge snake."

At this moment, Dudley, who was checking Mrs. Norris's body, suddenly spoke.

"What?" His words stunned everyone.

Including Lockhart.

"Mrs. Norris said that she saw a huge snake, which was very, very large, and almost occupied the entire corridor." Dudley emphasized again, and fed the 'delicious little dried fish' in his hand to Mrs. Norris. Just released from petrification, poor Mrs. Norris regained some strength.

"I mean, you can understand cat language?" Professor Flitwick asked. He didn't think Dudley was lying, but just made sure out of habit.

This is an excellent wizard who was able to cast spells without a staff in the second grade.

"Didn't I say that? Actually, I know a little bit of cat language."

Speaking of which, Dudley twisted two fingers, and compared his thumb and index finger in a gesture of losing the Korean market: "A little bit, but it's enough to understand what Mrs. Norris is trying to express."

"It's amazing." Dumbledore also admired.

"I think this is much insignificant compared to you. Professor, don't you also know mermaid language and fairy language?"

To be precise, Dumbledore can not only understand mermaid language and goblin language, but also understand Parseltongue, but he can only understand it but not speak it.

"Snakehead!" Lockhart grasped the key word: "Just look at me and say it's Medusa."

Medusa's head is full of snake heads, isn't this the murderer? It's real.

After clapping his hands, Dudley stood up and looked at the other professors: "I don't think this is Medusa."

"Medusa's snake heads are very small, and there are a lot of them. Mrs. Norris said that the snake is bigger than the corridor."

A thousand-year-old basilisk. How could it be comparable to a mere Medusa?

"Stop joking, how could there be such a big snake?" Lockhart teased, and then showed the iconic two rows of teeth again: "Mr. Dursley, it's just a cat, what do you know about big? It The big it sees may only be the big it thinks."

Before Dudley could speak, Filch became excited: "Mrs. Norris is very smart! She can't lie, and she can't read wrong!"

He is not usually like this. Although Filch is very strict with students, he has always maintained enough respect for professors.

But you can insult him, not his cat.

That was his only companion!

"Dudley, what do you think that is?"

Dumbledore ignored Lockhart, and his eyes fell on Dudley, along with the eyes of other professors.

Under the gaze of countless gazes, he spoke slowly again: "Great snake-like magical creature, Professor Dumbledore, I think the answer is already obvious."

There are not many snake-type magical creatures, and there are only a few famous ones, and even fewer with the ability to petrify.

"The basilisk, it's a basilisk."

"Mr. Dursley, your statement is even more absurd. Basilisks are rarer creatures than Medusas."

Lockhart tried his best to prove his guess was right: "As far as I know, that dangerous magical creature hasn't appeared for a long time. You said it was a basilisk. Why don't you just say that it was made by Slytherin?" What about the basilisk that has lived for thousands of years?"

The portraits of Lockhart on the surrounding walls nodded after hearing what Lockhart said.

It is extremely complicated to breed a basilisk, let alone raise such a big one.

"There is also the eyes of the basilisk that can kill, the cat is just petrified."

Dudley said casually, "Is it possible that Mrs. Norris indirectly saw the basilisk's eyes through the stagnant water on the ground, so she was only petrified, not killed?"

Mrs. Norris nodded frantically, and meowed in agreement.

The two insisted on their own words.

The professors looked at each other, feeling a little headache.

In fact, whether it is Medusa or Basilisk, they think it is nonsense.

Hogwarts Castle is the safest place in the world, how could there be such a thing. Huh? It seems like a few giant monsters ran in last year
