Master Druid at Hogwarts

Chapter 703 The Slug Club
"Hermione~ Someone invited us to lunch, meow!"

(ω)
Fish raised the parchment in Hermione's hand and shouted excitedly.

"It's not us, it's you, Harry, and Neville." Hermione corrected calmly, "Only you three have received the invitation."

"What do you mean meow? We can only meow the three of us?" Maomao turned to look at Harry and Neville who had also received the parchment.

(ω)

The content on the parchment of the two of them is basically the same as that of Fisch, the only difference is that the names at the beginning are different.

"It should be... It doesn't say that you can bring other people, so it's better not to bring it." Harry said after hesitating.

After all, the other party is a professor. Although Harry doesn't like Professor Slughorn's behavior of treating himself as a collectible, before he shows the characteristics of Lockhart or Umbridge, Harry still Will maintain the most basic respect for him.

Hearing that Hermione and the others could not be brought along, Fish immediately lost interest in Professor Slughorn's invitation.He pouted, and threw the parchment in his hand onto the small table in the box.

"That Fish is not going, meow."

(ω)
Anyway, he didn't like that professor named Slughorn very much.

Neville hesitated for a moment, and threw the invitation on the table: "Then I won't go, I don't even know him."

Although Harry mentioned it before, this new Potions professor is a very famous person, but...

With his Potions grades, it is impossible for him to participate in the NEWT course of Potions this year, so Neville's mentality is very peaceful.

Harry originally wanted to advance and retreat with the two of them, but Hermione reminded him: "One of you must go and inform Professor Slughorn. It would be too bad if neither of you went. Be a little more polite."

"Fish won't go anyway, meow!"

(〃｀3〃)
Mao Mao folded her hands and turned her head to the side.

Harry and Neville looked at each other for a while, finally sighed helplessly, stood up, and walked out of the box...

Who made him the last to express his opinion?
However, as soon as Harry left, he walked all afternoon. Ron and the others waited until the sky outside began to darken and the lights on the train were turned on. Harry then returned to the compartment with a tired face.

"Why have you been here for so long?" Ron asked curiously.

"Forget it..." Harry waved his hand, collapsed on the chair and rested for a while, then sat up straight, and said, "Professor Slughorn also invited other people, from different colleges and grades." They all have one characteristic, someone in the family is powerful, or they are famous in the wizarding world."

"Ah... no wonder Ginny and I weren't invited." Ron shrugged and said mockingly: "Mom also said that he looked down on Dad back then, thinking he wouldn't have much success. "

Then he sighed dejectedly, "But I have to admit...he doesn't seem to be wrong..."

The others exchanged glances with each other, and there was no disagreement. It was one thing for Ron to laugh at himself, and it would be too rude for them to follow suit.

Only Fish tilted his head and said doubtfully: "Hasn't Arthur achieved anything? Hasn't he been in the newspaper?"

"Huh? When?" Both Ron and Ginny froze for a moment.

"When he won the lottery before, didn't you guys go to Egypt to play meow?" Fish asked in surprise.

After being reminded by Fish, Ron and Ginny finally remembered this matter. They looked at Mao Mao dumbfounded, not knowing how to explain it to him.

Ron simply changed the subject directly, and continued to ask Harry: "Then what did he invite you to do?"

"Chat?" Harry said uncertainly.

He was very uncomfortable with the scene at the time, so he didn't pay much attention to it most of the time.The only time Slughorn perked up was when he talked about his mother.

"...In short, he was talking to the invited people about how good he is with the celebrities in their families. In addition, they seem to be members of the 'Slug Club' and invited us to join."

Harry briefly talked about some topics that Professor Slughorn was talking about at the time.It was so boring that Fish began to doze off.

As for Slughorn's invitation to join the club, Harry had already been reminded by Dumbledore, so he was mentally prepared.And Hermione also learned about the club from Fish and Professor McGonagall, so naturally she didn't respond.

But Ron and the others heard of Slughorn's club for the first time, and Ginny couldn't help asking curiously, "The Slug Club? What is that?"

Even Luna was interested: "Is it someone who studies slugs? Is there a club for quivering maggots?"

"It was a club, or a network of relationships, established by Professor Slughorn with himself as the core, and the members in it were all the students he had been optimistic about when he was teaching at Hogwarts... My mother was also in it One member." Harry ignored Luna's question and explained.

At the same time, he was also a little troubled...

Because Harry doesn't like Professor Slughorn's way of measuring a person by "value", but he wants to follow his mother's path, and he also wants to learn from Professor Slughorn More about his own parents, so when Professor Slughorn asked him to join the Slug Club, Harry neither agreed nor declined.

"This name is really ugly, meow! It's still better than Fisher's Cat Club!"

(`)
Fish, who was already planning to snatch Slughorn's club over, belittled without hesitation.

"That's right! What is the Slug Club? Our Cat Club is the best!" Ron and Neville cheered together.

When the train was about to arrive at the station, Hermione took Fish to leave first, and they returned to the prefect's compartment and changed their robes.

After the train stopped at the Hogsmeade platform, Fish and several other prefects arranged for the other students to get off the train in an orderly manner.

"Fish."

Professor Slughorn dragged a small and delicate suitcase to the compartment where Maomao was. He did not come to Fish until the students in front got off the bus.

"It's a pity that you didn't come to have lunch with me at noon." He was not angry because Fish rejected his invitation, and he still had a greedy expression hidden in his kindness, "Actually, even if you bring I don't mind at all if a few friends come over, but this is my mistake and I can't blame you."

Professor Slughorn is always very tolerant towards the students he values, not to mention the beloved Fish.

Then, he said cheerfully: "But it doesn't matter, we will have a long time to get along well in Hogwarts."

He nodded to Fish, and then dragged the small suitcase off the train.

(ω)

Fish looked at the back of Professor Slughorn going away, and scratched his head in distress...

If the other party has always had such a good-natured face, then I wouldn't be ashamed to snatch his things...
