章 457: Chapter 457 Salmon Skewers and Patronus

"Is Fudge doing fine?" Felix asked.

"The minister is fine." Derris said stiffly, as he closed his empty suitcase and started to take his leave, never sitting down from the beginning to the end.

"Wait, Derris." Felix called him out, and several sheets of parchment flew toward him, which Derris took in his hands suspiciously.

"I haven't been idle the past two days, and prepared some things that will be used in the Halloween holiday training roughly, please pass them to Scrimgeour."

"This is ... an ancient rune?"

"That's right, you can purchase a batch of rune cards from the 'Future World' company for the Auror and Hit Wizard who will receive training to practice in advance, it will save a lot of time."

"I understand, I will pass it over to Head Scrimgeour." Derris promised.

The next day, the weekend.

Felix slept in until late, he stayed up late last night, but the results were remarkable, and in his office, he had a small, fiery red bird cupped in his hand.

"Uh, can't call you a warning bird anymore, let's just call you Echo Bird."

Because of the limited time, he only used his magic perspective and thought acceleration last evening to see a general outline, but with the full knowledge from Nicolas Flamel, he quickly rummaged through his memory to find a similar alchemical item and spent half the night to successfully replicate the alternative.

This alchemical item can be used as an extra eye. When using it, you can input a command to it, and it will exist until the command is completed or ruined, when that happened it will either fly to its owner or immolate itself on the spot.

Felix looked down at the fiery red bird, which nimbly bounced around in his hand.

"Just keep an eye on the room, in case someone breaks in."

The fire-red bird "chirped" twice, and jumped to the ceiling above the magic lamp, you simply can't find it without a careful look.

Felix looked at the time, the mealtime is probably long past, so he walked to the underground area of the castle with Valen, and on the way, he met some students who also headed to the kitchen for food.

Felix exchanged tips with them, and he recommended the lemon salmon fillet. "Remove the scale and bones from the salmon, slice it, smear it raw with black pepper and finish it off with a drizzle of lemon juice ... It tastes pretty good."

The two Ravenclaw students who accompanied him kept swallowing their saliva.

"Professor Hap, did you invent the fish deboning spell?" One of them asked.

"No." Felix immediately replied, "But I happen to know this spell."

The two students looked at each other, "Well ... we also happen to have a problem, when using this spell it never works very well, it leaves some fish barbs inside, what is the reason for this?"

"Is the spell transmission process went wrong?"

"It shouldn't be, Cho Chang uses it just fine ... she's my roommate and can bake her own fish!"

"In that case," Felix thought about it, "it might be related to magic control, I suggest you keep the magic stable in a range, kind of like the process of casting a transfiguration spell, of course, don't push too hard, or you'll completely churn the fish... ..."

They discussed the magic as they walked into the basement, and Felix seemed to see a red-headed figure disappear around the corner in front of them. Weasley? He thought for a moment and didn't care.

Valen stood on Felix's shoulder, her tiny black eyes similarly fixed on the end of the hallway as she caught a familiar scent.

In the kitchen, the house-elf, Cloudbur, greeted them warmly.

Felix handed them a gift box of sweets, and after a few excuses, Cloudbur and the enthusiastic elves brought out a small tray with fresh salmon from the corner.

"This is specially reserved for Mr. Hap!" Cloudbur said as he held the small tray up with great effort.

"It's hard work, make one of these for them too." Felix said, as he pointed at the two Ravenclaw students, who have been watching this in awe.

Ten minutes later, Felix and Valen emerged from the kitchen with a salmon skewer in one hand and strutted down the empty underground corridor, eating merrily. The aroma wafted around them uncontrollably, and the wizards in the picture frames on the walls gawked at them.

"How about a visit to Uagadou's quarters? They have some interesting amulets and spells. ..."

At that moment, Snape's voice sounded from the corner of the corridor.

"Thirty points each, plus a detention." The slow voice said, "Potter, Weasley, could you surprise me anymore? Ordinary violations of school rules don't seem to satisfy you anymore, causing a fuss in the Slytherin common room ... Potter, tell me, are you trying to show off your outstanding courage?"

"We didn't make a scene in the Slytherin common room!" Harry said with annoyance.

"No backtalk, Potter, ten points off for Gryffindor," Snape said lazily, "more than thirty pairs of eyes are enough to prove that you used the Patronus--" He stopped abruptly, his nose gently Twitched, Harry, Ron, and Draco looked like they saw a ghost in front of them, looking behind him with their mouths wide open.

Snape jerked around, Felix and Valen stood frozen in place not far away, holding salmon skewers in their hand.

"Uh, Severus, and you three, what's going on?" Felix asked lightly, the two skewers of salmon fillets in his hand suddenly disappearing.

Valen's two small hands are occupied, but she didn't have Felix's ability, and this thing can't be stuffed into her pocket, she could only turn around and hide behind Felix, as she stuffed the salmon fillets into her mouth with a big munch, with obvious oil stains around her pink beak ...

Snape looked speechless for a moment, with deep eyes surveying both the big and the small ones.

"Potter--" he trailed off after a long while, "using the Patronus to break into the Slytherin common room and try to cause a panic-- "

"Not a panic!" Harry exclaimed, "We were just trying to inform Malfoy to get him out of there! We can't exactly go in as we don't know the password-"

"It's true," Ron gulped down a mouthful of drool, the salmon fry smelled too good, "we wanted to discuss baking fish ... with him," he suddenly coughed violently "I mean, to discuss the thesis, that is, the combination of 'bright' rune and fire making charm."

Felix almost understood what is going on.

"Leave the three of them to me, Severus," he said, "I happen to be looking for all of them for something."

Snape glanced at him, "A Detention cannot be compromised." Turning on his heel, he left.

Felix shrugged, "Come on." He told Harry, Ron, and Draco that the Uagadou camp is out of the question.

They made their way up, as Harry and the rest followed behind him. Harry clearly smelled the scent of fish coming from Professor Hap, and his stomach began to growl afterward.

"Harry, did you use the Patronus?"

"Yes, Professor." Harry whispered.

"Just the Patronus?"

"Harry can use Patronus to deliver messages." Ron said.

Felix stopped and looked at Harry with slight surprise, Harry stammered, "Professor you told me about the principle of using the Patronus to deliver messages, and when I tried it last night, it was pretty easy ..."
