Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor - Quirrell

"Miss Williams? You moved in so soon?" Quirrell's voice was a little surprised, and Lucius immediately looked at "his" lord's expression from the corner of his eye—most strong and successful men don't like to be Restraint, they like "big-hearted" lovers, and don't like men and women who are too possessive, so Lucius must hide his sour mood.Judging from his experience, Quirrell's surprise at Miss Spider's appearance was genuine, and Lucius' mood immediately improved a lot. This was indeed an accidental encounter.

"Yes, this place is messy. Principal Dumbledore said that I should clean up this place, and I think so too." Williams replied with a wry smile.

"So sorry to bother you, I'm here to see Mrs. Norris."

"The former administrator's cat?" Williams was a little depressed: It turned out that he wasn't looking for me.

"Yes."

"But I didn't see it...

"Meow~" Williams didn't finish speaking, and a cat meow sounded in the room behind her.

"Merlin! When did it come in?" Williams turned around and saw Mrs. Norris standing on top of a pile of "garbage" she had just picked up.Leg shackles, leather whips, tables and chairs of the previous owner, bed sheets, and many other unidentifiable things were piled up together.Mrs. Norris stood on an old gray-green floor mat, staring at Williams.The cellar was dark, and so was the caretaker's room, and the cat's eyes shone eerily in the dark.

With a scream, Williams turned around and threw himself into Quirrell's arms.Lucius raised his eyebrows and stood between the two of them first, so Williams threw himself into the arms of the nobleman: "Are your feet slipping, Miss Williams?" Lucius' aristocratic accent is here A moment filled with sarcasm.

"Thank you, Mr. Malfoy." Although Williams didn't suffer, she answered this thank you reluctantly.

"Okay, thank you for your help, Miss Williams." Of course Quirrell knew why the two of them did this. After hugging Mrs. Norris in his arms, he said goodbye with a smile on his face. very good.

"It's good if I can help you." Facing the smiling Quirrell, Williams immediately regained his spirits, "Would you like to stay for a cup of tea, Quirinus."

"No, thanks for the invitation. I'm still dating - don't tell anyone else, I'm lazy at times like this. Goodbye, Miss Williams." Williams was instantly stoned, while Quirrell pulled because of victory And the platinum nobleman with his head held high left the administrator's office.Looking at his current expression, Quirrell couldn't help but think of Snape's analogy about the platinum peacock. To be honest, it was indeed very similar.

"Lucius."

"Yes~"

"Take the cat back to Malfoy Manor." Quirrell held Mrs. Norris with both hands, and handed it to Lucius.Quirrell had promised Filch to take care of Mrs. Norris, but she was only a female, and Quirrell suspected that once Nagini's snake girl, which had grown from the vinegar vat, returned, she would find a chance when he was not there to put the Poor Mrs. Cat swallowed it.Therefore, he could only hand Mrs. Norris to someone who could make him feel at ease.

"!" The aristocrat who was still smiling just now showed a strange expression!

Mrs. Norris is a scrawny cat with a gray coat.As Quirrell had imagined, Filch had little property, and although he did his best to pamper Mrs. Norris, the cat's food was still terrible.But she was a loyal cat, not forsaken by the caretaker's pockets, and she often returned to the caretaker's office even after Filch died.However, although this cat has an extraordinarily noble character, she seriously does not conform to the aesthetics of the Malfoy family.

In Lucius' mind, the cat scratched the antique furniture with its paws, jumped onto the cabinet, tore up books, and smashed porcelain!But this is the task entrusted by the lord, so... Lucius swallowed hard, nodded, and stretched out his hands strangely and stiffly to Mrs. Norris.

"Meow?" Animals are sensitive, and Mrs. Norris, a cat who has been assisting Filch in catching students who violated the rules, is even more sensitive. She knows that Lucius doesn't like her, but she also knows that the master who protected her is no longer there. will be back.And now the person who took care of her temporarily is going to give her to another person... Tilting her head, Mrs. Norris's big eyes were fixed on Lucius, which was pure and innocent, which was different from human beings. Impurity eyes...

"Forget it, it seems that you don't like cats." Quirrell hugged Mrs. Norris back into her arms, and gently scratched the cat's chin. Mrs. Norris narrowed her eyes contentedly, lying quietly On Quirrell's shoulders.

"No, no, of course not, I like cats very much, lord."

"Then for you?"

"... Cough!" The nobleman pretended to be choked by his own saliva, and turned his head to cough.

Looking at Lucius helplessly, Quirrell hesitated a little, and pulled Lucius towards the Potions Professor's office.

Snape was a powerful wizard, but there were quite a few powerful wizards in Hogwarts now, but he was the only known master of potions who could reassure both parties.So, now Snape is in his office, guarding the cauldron, boiling the potion.

Anyone who knocks on the door now is an uninvited guest to him!He didn't want to leave the crucible, but the persistent visitor kept knocking on the door. Finally, the Snake King couldn't take it anymore, rushed to the door angrily, and prepared his own venom!

"Good afternoon, Severus."

"!" The venom... was forcefully forced back by the Potions Professor before it spewed out.But this does not mean that he will look good to those who come, the Snake King's face is gloomy like the sky before the storm.

"Mrs. Norris, I think you know each other." Quirrell lifted the cat up. "She is my cat now, but for some reason, she can't keep her with me. So let her live with you." Bar."

Snape's eyes widened instantly - it was the first time Quirrell knew that his subordinate had such big eyes.But since Snape didn't speak, he agreed, and Quirrell put Mrs. Norris on the ground: "This will be your home from now on, Mrs. Norris." If you ask other professors, Mrs. Norris will also Will be well looked after, but apart from Snape, the other professors are too "soft".When Filch was alive, some children would play tricks on Mrs. Norris, like stuffing her in armor, or secretly spraying her with hair remover.He didn't think other professors would go after some kids for an "innocuous" prank on a cat.

Therefore, after much deliberation, Professor Snape, who has been the most feared professor at Hogwarts for a long time, is the most suitable to be Mrs. Norris's temporary master.After all, who rushes to mess with the Snake King's pet?

"Professor Quirrell, if I remember correctly, what you just said was 'borrowing'? The meaning of borrowing should be temporary. Is my understanding wrong?"

"Yes, it's a borrowing. Severus, your understanding is correct. Before I resigned from Hogwarts, Mrs. Norris was staying with you. I will often visit you, including during the summer vacation. Hers. I think you'll have a good time."

Quirrell took Lucius away. The Snake King was still standing stiffly at the door. Mrs. Norris flicked her tail and leaned against Snape's feet, rubbing his trouser legs lightly.Snape felt the warm, squishy, ​​furry stuff, and he stiffened even more!

"Meow~" the cat meowed softly.For some reason, Snape suddenly remembered that a long time ago, when his father was not an alcoholic who liked to abuse his wife and children, there was such a little furry thing in his house.Just where did it go?It seems that the furious father grabbed his tail and slapped it against the wall...

Shaking his head, Snape forced himself to wake up from the old memory, he took two wrong steps to the side, avoiding the cat.Then he called the Hogwarts elf who served him: "Get a cat food bowl, a blanket, a cat litter, and everything else a cat should use...Damn it! My cauldron!"

"Meow?"

After solving the residence problem of Mrs. Norris, Quirrell took Lucius to his office on the third floor.Although the spiders had already occupied the third floor at that time, the offices of the professors were all protected by special magic, and each professor would add those "dots" to his office, so not only Quirrell, but also other universities Most of the professors' offices are also intact.

Quirrell took out two bottles of medicine from the cabinet and handed them to Lucius, the potion that completely cured the Squibs. One bottle was given to Lucius privately by him, and the other bottle will be rewarded for the meritorious officials this time. A priceless treasure that most wizarding families covet; after all, nine out of ten pure-blood families have Squib relatives.

Even Lucius was so excited that he almost broke the precious potion in his hand.After all, the reason why Dumbledore's theory of combining hemp seeds was accepted by some purebloods was because of the increasing number of squibs among the pureblood descendants year by year.Those guys didn't even think about it, wouldn't there be squibs if they didn't mix with hemp?In that case, why have so many wizarding families of the past disappeared into history?The bloodline is thin, and the result is that the prominent wizard family directly becomes a Muggle family...

Before Lucius finished his excitement, Quirrell thought for a while, and then took out a brown potion bottle from the bottom layer. The brown potion bottle indicated that the potion inside was sensitive to light.After Lucius took it, he immediately put it in his folding medicine box.

"Lucius, do you want the bloodline to awaken?" Seeing Lucius put away the potion, Quirrell asked.
