Chapter 741 A Lively Christmas

"Harry! Kreacher! Sirius! Fish is here to play, meow!"

(≧≦)

On Christmas Day, Fish and Hermione arrived at the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix early, followed by the house elf Comey.

Professor McGonagall still had some things to deal with, and she had to go to Newt Scamander to pick up Hermione's parents, so she would come later.

"Welcome, Master Fish!" Kreacher appeared in front of the cats and kept muttering bad things about Sirius and Harry.

"By the way, meow..." Fish reached into his magic pocket and took out a small quilt with cat paw patterns of different sizes and handed it to Kreacher.

"This is a return gift for you, meow. Fish didn't expect you to give me a Christmas present, so I didn't prepare it for you before." The cat explained to Kreacher, "This is what Fish used when he was a child, and it's just the right size for you, meow."

Comi stared at Kreacher unhappily. Before this, only he could receive such a gift, and other house elves only received some snacks.

"Master Fish is as kind as Master Regulus! Old Kreacher will definitely treasure this gift!" Kreacher shed tears excitedly, and he carefully put away the small quilt, "Giving the badge that Master Regulus collected before to Master Fish is the most correct decision made by old Kreacher!"

Kreacher gave Fish a silver badge with the Slytherin College logo. When Regulus was in school, it was very popular for purebloods to privately make several badges of this type to show their identity as Slytherins or Death Eaters.

Sirius and Harry, who also came out to greet them, had twitching mouths. They also received Christmas gifts from Kreacher - two bags of lively maggots.

However, they had never expected to receive anything good from Kreacher, so their depressed mood only flashed by, and soon the two of them warmly welcomed Fitch and the others.

"You are the first to come," Sirius happily told Fish about the other people's situation: "Arthur and Percy still have some work to do in the Ministry, they will come later, Remus is currently carrying out the task given to him by Dumbledore, but he should be able to come back today, and Tonks, Molly strongly asked me to invite her to come as a guest, and she agreed."

"Because she wants Bill and Tonks to fall in love," Harry shrugged and explained: "Mrs. Weasley doesn't like Fleur very much, she thinks Fleur is not suitable for Bill."

"Oh," Sirius showed a strange smile on his face, "Then Molly may be disappointed," he did not keep it a secret, and said directly: "There is something going on between her and Remus."

"What? Tonks and Lupin?" Hermione and Harry were both very interested in the news and asked quickly.

"Hehehe... almost certain." Sirius laughed triumphantly, raised two fingers and pointed at his eyes, "Although the two of them concealed it well, Remus should not try to hide it from the eyes of my good friend."

Fish was not very interested in this matter. He just wanted to know that Tonks and Lupin might become boyfriend and girlfriend. As for why they were together and how they were together, the cat did not care.

So he did not join Hermione's topic, but ran to Mrs. Black's portrait and greeted her.

"Walburga, Fish is here to play again, meow! Merry Christmas!"

(ΦωΦ)

"The Black family welcomes you to visit at any time, Fish." Mrs. Black's somewhat fierce face was now wearing a gentle smile. She glanced at Hermione, lowered her head and muttered in a low voice: "It would be better if that mud... Muggle girl didn't come."

Fish shook his ears and pretended not to hear.

When he was a guest at the Black family before, he had argued with Mrs. Black many times about this issue, but the Black family was too stubborn in their obsession with pure blood. Mrs. Black could maintain her current attitude because of the cat, so Fish was too lazy to argue with her now.

They followed Sirius to the living room. Kreacher brought some drinks and snacks without Sirius's instructions, and then put them all in front of Fish.

After a while, Kreacher led the Weasley family in, cursing.

"Merry Christmas!" The Weasley family greeted Fish and the others with a smile.

"Merry Christmas, Fish, Harry and Hermione." Fleur also came with the Weasley family. She greeted them in a hoarse voice, and then kissed Fish and Harry on both cheeks under the murderous eyes of Hermione and Ginny...

Of course, Hermione did not fall behind, but judging from her expression, she did not seem to like Fleur's overly intimate behavior.

After a few simple greetings, Mrs. Weasley rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen, calling the twins George and Fred to help.

Mr. Weasley and Sirius went to the corner and talked about the Order of the Phoenix.

Although Harry wanted to know what Professor Slughorn's memory was like, he knew that now was not the time to ask, so he, Ron and Ginny took a deck of Exploding Cards and started playing.

As for Fish, after eating some snacks, he turned back into a cat, then jumped into Hermione's arms and snored.

Just as Harry and the others started the third round of cards and Hermione was about halfway through the book in her hand, Professor McGonagall came with Hermione's parents, as well as the Newts and their grandson Rolf.

"Minerva~"

Fish went up to hug Professor McGonagall, then turned around to greet others, and Hermione, who hadn't seen her parents for a long time, also rushed to her parents...

Then Mrs. Granger twisted her body and opened her arms to hug Fish beside her.

"Oh! I haven't seen Fish for such a long time, let me take a good look at him!" Mrs. Granger rubbed the cat's cheek, looked at him carefully and said, "Well... you have grown a lot taller and more handsome. I feel that Hermione is not worthy of you."

Hermione: "..."

After Mrs. Granger had enough of the cat, she turned around and hugged her daughter with a cold face, complaining, "What's wrong? I haven't seen you for so long, and you still put on a sour face. I really love you for nothing!"

Hermione rolled her eyes unhappily...

Who made her put on such a sour face? !

After getting rid of Mrs. Granger, Fish came to Mr. Scamander.

"Newt, Fish watched the memory of Albus and Grindelwald fighting a while ago, and you also appeared in it..." Mao Mao tilted his head and asked the question that had been puzzling him, "Who was the witch with curly hair standing next to you at that time? She doesn't look like Tina when she was young."

ω

"Curly hair?" Old Lady Tina Scamander raised her eyebrows. She always had straight hair, so that woman must not be herself, so she squinted at her husband and asked slowly and lightly: "Is it Rita? Or Bunty? Or some witch I don't know?"

Newt: "..."

That shower gel is a bit exaggerated... After using it once, the whole bathroom is filled with its fragrance, which is a bit pungent... In the past, the bathroom door had to be closed to prevent Zhongyuan from sneaking in, but now Zhongyuan doesn't even go near the bathroom.
