Chapter 161 Animagus Club
Professor McGonagall took Fish out of the cat door, then followed a tree-lined path and came to a very ordinary-looking building.
"Meow~"
After turning around and reminding Fish, Professor McGonagall sprinted and jumped onto the wall outside the building. Then Professor McGonagall did not jump into the wall, but stood on the wall and walked around the building.
Following her reminder, Fish also circled the wall.
As the circle was completed, a strange sight like ripples on the water suddenly appeared in front of Fish's eyes. Then his eyes flashed, and the walls and buildings disappeared. He and Professor McGonagall stood in a not-so-glorious place. But it is in a very exquisite and ancient foyer.
There are all kinds of strange ways for wizards to hide their residences in the Muggle world. Fish has already seen many different ways to enter, so he doesn't think there is anything remarkable about this scene. Instead, he thinks it is too cumbersome.
"We are here," Professor McGonagall turned back into human form and said to Fish: "The headquarters of the Animagus Club."
Fish also turned into a cat-human form, and was held by Professor McGonagall's hand as he walked inside.
"Different from the official Animagus International Symposium, this is just a non-governmental organization, but its history is older than the seminar. Many years ago, this place was used as a gathering place by Animagus from all over the world. place, but who built it, no one knows.”
As the two walked, Professor McGonagall introduced the history of this place to Fish.
"It is said that during the witch hunting period, an Animagus accidentally found this place. It was initially used as a secret base for him and a few wizard friends. Then after years of reconstruction and development, it gradually transformed into a place dedicated to accepting Animagus. place.”
"Regardless of whether they are registered with the Ministry of Magic in each country, as long as they are introduced by a member and approved by the majority of members, they can officially join the Animagus Club."
Professor McGonagall smiled and touched Fish's head, "But this shouldn't be anything to you. Who makes Fish so lovable?"
"Hey hey~" (●>ω<●)
Fish happily rubbed his head into Professor McGonagall's palm, and he was very confident in his affinity.
After walking through the foyer and passing a long corridor with walls painted with various animals, Fish and Professor McGonagall came to a brightly lit hall.
The hall is littered with chairs and sofas of various shapes. In addition, there are cat climbing frames, haystacks, perches, bird's nests and other messy animal supplies. Fish even saw some animals in the hall. In one corner, a pond about ten feet in diameter was dug.
"These were added by later Animagus."
Professor McGonagall introduced Fish like this.
In addition to these things, there were two old men playing wizard chess in the hall. After they heard the movement, they looked over at the same time.
One of them was wearing a decent dress, his silver-white hair and beard were meticulously groomed, and he looked like a well-educated old gentleman. The other old wizard was unshaven, and his clothes and behavior looked very casual.
"Good afternoon, Ms. McGonagall, you came quite early this time."
The old gentleman smiled and said hello to Professor McGonagall, then turned to look at Fish with cat ears.
"Is this the Fish you are talking about? What a lovely child."
He looked at Fei Xu with a hint of surprise in his eyes, but it was quickly covered up, and he gave both of them a chest-stroking salute.
Another old wizard raised his hand and waved twice casually, and said with an American accent: "Good afternoon, Ms. McGonagall, and lovely little Mr. McGonagall."
"Good afternoon, Mr. Chase and Mr. Manji."
Professor McGonagall responded, and pressed Fish's head, making him and himself bow slightly to the two old wizards.
Then she saw Marvin Manji opposite the old gentleman Jonathan Chase, and took the opportunity to secretly move the pieces on the chessboard.
But before Professor McGonagall could reveal it, his behavior was loudly exposed by the chess pieces.
"You old guy cheated again!"
Mr. Chase, who originally seemed to be a very gentleman, immediately became furious, stood up, grabbed the man opposite Manji by the neck, and shook him vigorously.
Marvin Manji was staggered by him, rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue, looking like he was about to die, but even so, he still stubbornly stretched out his hand and grabbed Jonathan Chase's beard fiercely.
"You two old guys are almost 200 years old together. How come you keep living longer and longer?"
Just as the two old men were fighting, someone else came in. After making a joke, he nodded to Professor McGonagall and Fish.
"We meet again, little one."
Fei Xu knew this new guy. He and the bad old man were the ones who chased him all over the street.
"Long time no see, Mr. Orr."
Professor McGonagall has always been very grateful to Mr. Orr, who brought Fish to him. The two of them talked while watching the show.
Feishu, on the other hand, was confused...
Isn't it a cat party? What is this owl doing here?
Just when he was confused, he saw Marvin Manji roaring, suddenly turning into a husky, breaking free from Jonathan Chase's hands, and opening his mouth to bite him.
Not to be outdone, Jonathan Chase transformed into an eagle and fought with Marvin Mange's husky.
"Meow!"∑(●ΦДΦ●)
At this time, Fish finally realized that Animagus does not refer to cats that can become humans, but refers to all animals that can transform into humans!
The two old men fought for a while, then stopped due to lack of physical strength. They both collapsed on the sofa, panting and glaring at each other. Then, with Al's intervention, they quickly got back together.
"Professor McGonagall!"
After a while, another young woman came in. She had pink hair and wore a leather jacket and jeans that were very different from ordinary wizards. She looked like a rock musician from the Muggle world.
"Tonks? You're here too."
The person who came was a former student of Hogwarts, an Auror and a member of the Order of the Phoenix, Nymphadora Tonks, a disguised magus.
"Let me meet the 'born Animagus'," Tonks said, walking to Fish and squatting down, showing a big smile, "Are you Fish? Hello, my name is Nymphadora Tonks, just call me Tonks, she was also a student at Hogwarts."
As she spoke, she reached out and wanted to stroke Fei Xu's cat ears, but Fei Xu turned his head to avoid it, and the kitten bared its teeth at it.
"Ha——!"(●`Д●)
Tonks could only retract her hand helplessly, but she really wanted to get close to Fish, so she began to change the color of her hair. This really attracted Fish's attention, and she took the opportunity to reach out again...
Then Fei Xu slapped him away.
It's just changing the color of fur, and it's not like Fei Xu can't do it. With this little trick, he wants to touch his cat ears. I really don't know what to do!
Fish bared his teeth at Tonks again, and then hid behind Professor McGonagall.
"Minerva, what kind of animal is she?"
Fish asked, pointing at Tonks, who had regained her pink hair and was staring at him with a regretful expression.
"Tonks can't turn into an animal," Professor McGonagall explained to Fish: "She is somewhat similar to you, unlike us who need to spend a long time to learn Animagus and can change themselves naturally. Appearance, this type of wizard is called a Metamorphmagus."
"..."︿
Speaking of which, no matter how misunderstood Fei Xu was, he had already reacted at this time.
Animagus does not refer to animals that can turn into humans, but a spell that can turn humans into animals.
so……
"Aren't they both cats and cats?"
Fish pursed his lips and raised his little face to look at Professor McGonagall. A pair of cat ears and a tail behind him drooped.

Jonathan Chase comes from a very old science fiction drama "The Thousand Faced Dragon". The protagonist Dr. Chase is a zoologist who can transform into several animals. I don't know how many people have seen it, but I have no impression of it at all. , purely information that I found accidentally while writing this book...
Marvin Mange comes from the comedy movie "The Beast". The protagonist does not change into an animal, but has the internal organs of an animal, so he has some of the abilities of animals.
In fact, I originally wanted to use Genma Saotome for this character, but thinking that the Japanese wizard’s Animagus was a panda, it felt a little weird, so I changed it.

The previous chapter was about Shell Street, not Baker Street...
The Pineapple House, 124 Shell Street, Beachcomber Town, Pacific Bikini Beach, is SpongeBob's home address.
Sure enough, my easter egg is a little bit off, so you can’t see it... ┑( ̄Д ̄)┍
…
Tonks' name, Nymphadora, means "the beautiful fairy who lived in streams and forests in Greek mythology", but the first half of the name, Nympha... you can search it yourself.
So in the original book, Tonks doesn't like people calling her name.
