Hogwarts pet owl

【grandfather! I'm coming! 】

Miss Owl turned the wine glass in front of Aberforth into a dialogue outside the window of the Hog's Head Bar.

The old man stood up with a smile and opened the window for Errol.

"Why is it so early today? It's not even dark yet!"

[I brought a helper to Grandpa, please open the door and take a look! 】

Aberforth opened the door suspiciously and saw a house elf standing timidly at the door, wearing the uniform of the Hogwarts Housekeeping Service.

"Hello, sir, my name is Lulu, I am... the boss asked me to help you!"

Aberforth turned to look at Errol who was already eating snacks at the bar.

"Son, my business here is not very good, I don't need help."

[Yes, yes, grandpa, every time you clean, you leave behind three parts of dust and two parts of dirt. Cleaning is the same as not cleaning. How can business be good if this continues? 】

"Haha, then I really want to thank you."

Aberforth doesn't hesitate. Since the child has this intention, he can just accept it. There is no need to push it around.

[Grandpa, I want to rent a house in Hogsmeade, can you help me? 】

"What do you want a house for?"

[I have a lot of little house elves, and I want to give them a place to live. 】

——The new house elf Errol has no intention of enrolling them in Hogwarts.

Hogwarts Housekeeping is Hogwarts Housekeeping, and Hogwarts is Hogwarts. The two cannot be confused.

Those who work in the Hogwarts Domestic Service are not necessarily Hogwarts house elves. Do you think this is true?

In this way, as the boss of "House Elves of the World United", she can get all the income generated by the new house elves!

Of course, she is not a real devil, and 20% of the proceeds will still be used for the house elves.

This is much better than the current bosses - a certain worker makes three million for the company every year, but his personal annual income is only a mere one hundred thousand.

In comparison, Errol is simply the best boss of the year!

"no problem,"

Aberforth immediately responded,

"I'll help you ask, and I'll definitely be able to find you a cheap and comfortable house!"

This grandpa knew nothing about it. Such a big matter was settled in just a few words.

Aberforth waved to Lulu at the door.

"Come in, Lulu, I'll leave the cleaning of the store to you!"

Lulu's anxious expression disappeared, and she bowed with excitement.

"Thank you sir! I will do my best!"

Lulu walked into the bar and glanced at Errol gratefully.

At this time, Errol was drinking juice. She probably took a big gulp and choked. The whole eagle screamed "quack, quack".

Lulu has never seen an owl cough, but what Errol is doing now is probably an owl coughing, right?

As expected of the boss, he even coughs with such force!

Aberforth patted Errol's back gently, which made her feel a little better.

"Erol, please come and have a drink with me. Hagrid rarely comes to the shop recently, and even your annoying idiot Lockhart doesn't come. I have no interest in drinking alone!"

Lockhart isn't coming?

Errol was a little concerned about this piece of information, but her mind was quickly occupied by other thoughts——

Should I drink this wine or not?

Drink it, it will shorten her life, but don't drink it. As a drunkard with a reputation in Shifang Continent, she is really panicking.

Speaking of which, she hasn't had a drink since the Christmas vacation!

[But Grandpa, Professor Snape said that I don’t have much life left, and he won’t even let me eat more. I’m afraid I can’t drink wine anymore...]

Aberforth glanced at Miss Owl and touched his beard.

"Ailuol. If at the last moment of your life, you can't move your whole body and feel miserable, let me ask you, what do you want to do most at that time?"

【drink wine! 】

Errol didn't hesitate.

When all alcoholics face this question, their answer must be the same.

"Yes, what you want to do most in the last moment of your life can be done at any time now, so why don't you do it?"

"What's the point of doing it if you have to wait until you're really about to die?"

That makes sense!

Errol is just worried that she will die before her lifespan is extended, but during the summer vacation, she can go to the Minotaur with Principal Dumbledore. Once she learns the Animagus, her lifespan will no longer be a problem. .

Well, after all, it only takes a few months, so this body can probably hold on, right?

How about a small drink?

……

……

Errol felt that her drinking ability had improved.

If he had had two glasses of wine before, he would have definitely been drunk.

But now she can fly back to the castle, which is really good news. It shows that her body is getting stronger!

Although Aberforth advised her to rest and return to the castle, Errol felt that she was not drunk and there was no problem in flying back——

Mainly because she had to go back to the auditorium and show her face during dinner time.

I don’t know what happened recently, but Snape was staring at me very closely.

Errol flew in the air, the cold wind stirred up, and the wine suddenly became stronger.

She gradually began to become confused,

What am I going to do?

Oh, back to the castle.

What are you doing back at the castle?

hunting?

No.

go to bed?

Not quite.

fight?

Well, it seems like...

Fight, fight...

When these thoughts come together, there is no way to suppress them.

After all, the body of an owl is different from that of a human. Once she is drunk, no matter how powerful her soul is, she will become completely useless.

Flying into the castle, Errol appeared on the second floor - she could no longer identify the location of the owl window in the auditorium.

She suddenly stopped in front of a pair of armor, with the luminous words on her forehead shining brightly.

【What are you worried about? 】

[I guess you are saying "Look at you"! 】

[Would you like to try another one? 】

[I guess you are saying, "Look at the five backbones and six beasts you have, bury them, dance, swish, swish, dance, and chirp, and you are so naked that you don't want people to look at you!"]

[Young man, let’s get some action! 】

After muttering to herself about the incision, Errol rushed forward with a claw.

Jingle bells!

The armor was scattered all over the floor.

Errol was dizzy and tried to raise her eyelids.

【ha! Do you want to take a look? Do you want to take a look? Do you know how powerful I am? 】

Like a victorious general, she landed on the ground and swayed away.

After walking only two steps, she suddenly remembered her enemy in the castle.

Pushing her legs hard against the ground, she flew up again,

"Wow—"

[Peeves, where are you? I want to challenge you to a duel! 】

——After Errol defeated Peeves in the sky above the auditorium last time, Peeves walked around when he saw Errol. He couldn't afford to offend this crazy owl!

So in fact, Errol hasn't seen Peeves much this semester, and she doesn't know where her hatred comes from.

Errol shouted all the way and arrived at the auditorium unknowingly.

In fact, she was so drunk that she still didn't know her way around. She was simply attracted by the aroma of food wafting from the auditorium.

So the little wizards and professors in the auditorium witnessed Errol's "one-man show".

"Boom!"

The large chandelier in the auditorium turned into a huge text sign:

【Peeves! come out faster! 】

"Boom!"

The vertical candlestick next to the professor's chair has also turned into a large billboard:

[Don’t hide in the castle and say nothing, I know you are at home! 】

The little wizards burst into laughter, but Snape's face was gloomy.

——What's going on with this stupid owl?

Errol flew around the auditorium twice, feeling increasingly sleepy.

At this point, it was no longer important to fight Peeves.

She is going to sleep.

Snape hit Errol who was spinning downwards with a levitating spell.

This prevented her from falling into the vegetable pot again.

Then he strode over and took the owl into his palm.

The strong smell of alcohol made him frown,

Two seconds later, he showed an expression on his face that made the Gryffindor wizards very scared but also very familiar.

"Errol Weasley left school illegally and violated the prohibition on underage drinking. In view of his repeated indiscipline, Gryffindor will be deducted eighty points!"

Hermione Granger: ...

Good guys, the case is solved.
