Master Druid at Hogwarts

Chapter 318 Cat and Tea

Fish was completely uninterested in Professor Trelawney's persuasion again and again...

Because divination can't help him find delicious and fun things, and most importantly, Professor McGonagall doesn't like it.

Professor Trelawney was not moved when she saw Fish, and she was not discouraged, because in her opinion, Fish would take the divination class, which proved that he was actually interested in divination. Resisting being a fortune teller.

Next, as long as he showed the magic and greatness of divination in the process of teaching, Fisher would naturally want to become a fortune teller.

Professor Trelawney, who has successfully fooled students one after another, is still very confident in herself.

However, what she didn't know was that the reason why Fish took the divination class was not because he suddenly became interested in divination. The reason why Mao Mao took the divination class was very simple-because there were fewer homework in this class.

Professor Trelawney, who misunderstood Fish's idea, was continuing her babbling performance with high spirits. Although she failed to attract Fish as she wished, many students were bluffed by her. .

Especially those few students whom she named and predicted, because she didn't say anything good, one or two of them became extremely nervous.

Of course, there are those who believe and those who don't.

For example, Hermione, and Dean Thomas and other students who usually live in the Muggle society, are different from wizards in their living habits and cultural education, making it easier for them to have no clear evidence for things like divination. question.

However, Professor Trelawney has seen this kind of situation a lot, and it's not like she hasn't been questioned by students, and these people are not her target group in the first place.

She can even give a prediction that has a high probability of being realized based on past experience——

"After the summer break, one of us will leave us forever."

After successfully using this prophecy to silence the students, Professor Trelawney put on a calm look and began to assign tasks to everyone.

"Now, I ask you to divide into groups of two. Each person takes a teacup from the shelf and comes to me, and I will fill the cup with tea... You can refer to the fifth and fifth chapters of "Picking the Fog to See the Future" Six pages to decipher the shape of tea."

She instructed everyone how to perform tea divination, and stood up, picked up the large copper teapot on the mantelpiece, and prepared to pour tea for the students.

And it wasn't pointless for her to do so.

After observing for a while, Trelawney had already locked on a target - when the nervous Neville stood up to get his teacup, she grabbed his arm, "Before you After breaking the first teacup, could I trouble you to pick a blue one? I like the pink one so much."

Then Neville became more nervous, and managed to match Trelawney's prophecy by smashing a teacup.

Those little wizards who had been bluffed immediately became more convinced of Trelawney, and those students who were still skeptical were also a little shaken.

Professor Trelawney still has two brushes in this area, and her deception skills are much better than Lockhart's.

It's just that her ultimate goal, Fish, is not interested at all.

It's not that Fish has never seen the successful prophecies of the centaurs, and their divination success rate is much higher than that of Trilawney.

But whether divination is deceiving or not is not important to the kitten. As long as divination cannot help him find delicious and interesting things for a day, then in Fisher's eyes, it is deceiving.

"Huh...huh...huh..."

(〃｀3〃)=3
At this moment, Fish was holding the teacup he brought from the shelf, blowing vigorously on the boiling tea inside.

Although the aroma of the tea is a bit too strong, this does not stop the curious cat from trying a drink he has never drunk before.

After blowing for a long time, the tea in the cup finally cooled down a bit. Fisch couldn't wait to move his mouth to the edge of the teacup, and took a sip of the tea inside.

"It tastes good meow!"

∑( ω )
The little cat stared at the cup in his hand with bright eyes.

In addition to tea leaves, English tea also adds milk, sugar, honey, fruit, jasmine and other ingredients to make different types of black tea.

Such as Duke black tea, jasmine black tea, jam black tea and so on.

And Trelawney wanted to make the tea aroma more intense, so that the students would get dizzy and be easily fooled by herself, so when adding ingredients, she also added more ingredients than normal.

As a result, her pot of tea was much sweeter than ordinary tea, and naturally it was more favored by Fish.

Fish narrowed his eyes and drank the tea in the cup, the tip of his tail was raised up because of his good mood, and the little cat's sense of divination became better all of a sudden...

You can even have a drink during class!

Based on this alone, the Divination class can be ranked in the top three of Fisch's favorite courses.

"Sybil, can Fish have another glass of meow?"

(●ω●)
Fish raised his empty cup and asked.

"Of course, dear."

Professor Trelawney immediately took the big copper teapot and ran over to refill Fish's cup.

Hermione on the side watched this scene speechlessly...

Professor Trelawney's performance has already made her not expect much from the divination class.

However, as a good student who values ​​grades, Hermione still intends to follow the professor's instructions carefully and complete the homework assigned in class, and according to the normal procedure, she should exchange tea with Fisher, who is in the team.

Just looking at the kitten in front of her, who was calmly drinking black tea without refilling her cup, Hermione wisely chose to be self-sufficient...

She first shook the tea leaves in the cup three times with her left hand as Professor Trelawney had instructed before, then turned the cup upside down on the tray, and waited until the last drop of tea had leaked out before she began to interpret the shape of the tea leaves .

"Well……"

Hermione looked left and right at the tea leaves in her cup, and found that no matter from which angle she looked at them, the tea leaves looked like a cat...

I don't know if it's my own psychological effect.

Hermione glanced shyly at Fish beside her, but Mao Mao was so absorbed in drinking tea that she didn't notice her at all.

This made Hermione a little bitter, but she also returned her attention to interpreting the tea leaves.

Opening "Picking Through the Fog to See the Future" at hand, Hermione searched for the meaning of the cat-shaped tea leaf on it.

"The shape of a cat, symbolizing 'sensuality, passion and grace'. A cat with an upturned tail...'envied by others'...what does that mean?"

Hermione muttered in a low voice while flipping through the book, the latter one is understandable, and she has indeed been hated recently... But the interpretation of the former one is a little fuzzy.

What is "love of sensuality, passion and elegance"?Because I enjoyed Fisch's enthusiasm gracefully, would I be envied by others?
Divination is like this, no matter how much you don’t believe it, you will always subconsciously apply your own experience to it, and subconsciously choose the part of interpretation that is beneficial to you.

Professor Trelawney, who refilled Fish's tea once more, heard her muttering, and raised her head to have a look.

Although Trelawney seldom appeared in front of the students, she knew everything about what happened in Hogwarts, but she was definitely not ignorant.

After all, she has to rely on this information to design her own "prophecy", not to mention that Fish is the "successor" she has been paying attention to all the time, so Professor Trelawney actually knows that Hermione and Fish are on the train of those things that happened.

So she followed Hermione's words.

"Oh, this shows that you will make some progress in your relationship recently."

In fact, Professor Trelawney didn't think Hermione's interpretation was correct at all, but for the sake of Hermione's good relationship with Maomao, she didn't bother to clarify.

Well, it was just by the way to fool her.

Hermione, who was successfully fooled, felt a slight jump in her heart, and suddenly felt...

In fact, the divination class didn't seem to be as useless as I imagined.
