All the changes in the world begin with Tom Cat

Chapter 6 Dumbledore’s Memories

"Please come in!"

There was a voice from inside the door.

Professor Flitwick opened the door.

In the center of the room, Dumbledore was writing something on the desk.

"Why are you here? Professor Flitwick."

Dumbledore looked up at the person and asked with interest.

"I can't come to you if I have nothing to do? Well, I'm here to ask you something. I want to treat you to something delicious. It's definitely much better than your unique jelly beans."

After finishing speaking, Flitwick tapped his wand lightly and said the flying spell: "Food, fly to the table!"

Then several plates of still-cooling delicacies flew onto Dumbledore's table.

"What kind of food is this? I don't remember that there are no recipes like this in the elves' kitchens."

The silver-white beard trembled as he stretched forward slightly.

"This is a dish made by the cat student named Tom, and there is also a dish made of potatoes. I swear even Merlin would not be able to eat such delicious food when he was in the world."

"Oh, this is the first time I've seen you praise me so much, but I don't think they are as interesting as my ear-flavored jelly beans."

As he spoke, Lao Deng conjured up a fork and put the food into his mouth.

After taking the first bite, his eyes flashed brightly, and then he slowly put down his fork.

"Okay, I admit that this food is indeed a bit tempting, and I am also amazed that Tom Kitten has such cooking skills, but it is not easy to use a fork to fork food."

"I knew you were going to say that, Albus, where did you find this magical cat? I feel no different from a human being."

Flitwick sat on a chair, tasting a piece of cake on the table.

"This is also bizarre to say." Dumbledore touched his long beard.

"Is there anything else that makes you feel weird?" Professor Flitwick became interested after hearing this.

"This matter started a month ago."

Dumbledore left his seat and recalled the day.

At that time, he had already finished the freshman meeting banquet, and the little wizards had officially entered the classroom.

While he was yawning on the table, an owl came back with a letter in its mouth, with the words "Tom received" written on it.

Later, after asking the owl, I found out that the recipient named Tom seemed to have no detailed address, as if this person had never existed.

This made Lao Deng confused.

Logically speaking, most owl letters pass through his hands, and the addresses will be tracked using corresponding magic.

Unless this Mr. Tom is not human.

Because owl letters can only be sent to humans.

"Well, it seems that I need to use tracking magic to locate him and see what this Tom looks like, so that the owl will not be unable to find the way."

Later, Lao Deng came to a mirror, took out his magic wand, and after chanting a few spells, a British shorthair cat appeared in the mirror.

"Strange? Why did a cat appear? Could it be that my magic failed?"

Dumbledore frowned, but rejected his idea.

After all, in the wizarding world, Albus Dumbledore is an expert when it comes to tracking magic!

How could it go wrong?
etc!Could it be that this cat is the so-called Tom?
An outrageous idea suddenly came to Dumbledore's mind.

Just when he subconsciously wanted to get rid of this impossible thought, the picture on the mirror changed.

I saw Tom being chased by two big men. It seemed that the cat had provoked someone.

The two big men surrounded Tom, cursing and saying something.

Tom's expression looked weak and helpless. He stood upright on his feet and looked at the big man surrounding him, like a little girl who was being bullied.

Then one of the big men pounced on Tom. The hair on Tom's body exploded and he quickly ducked sideways.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he shook it off with one paw, and breathed a sigh of relief.The two of them were furious when they saw this, and they pounced on Tom at the same time.

It was so frightened that it quickly lay on the ground with its head in its hands, closing its eyes tightly and not daring to watch the next scene.

As a result, the two grown men faced each other, and their mouths faced each other, and they collided with each other, making stars shine in their eyes.

Seemingly hearing movement, Tom looked up and observed.

Only then did he realize that these two idiots actually bumped into each other, slapped his thighs with their paws, and made devilish mocking sounds.

"Oh hahaha"

The two men seemed to be stimulated by the cat's ridicule, and they couldn't bear it anymore.

One of them took out a knife and chopped it directly on the tail.

"Oh ho ho ho ho!"

Tom's tail was cut off by a knife, and he was so painful that he flew into the air and then fell down.

But what surprised Dumbledore was that the cat didn't bleed after its tail was chopped off.

But the next moment, a scene that surprised him happened.

Tom picked up his severed tail, then turned it a few times like a screw, and the tail immediately returned to its original shape.

What kind of magical method is this?

This cat doesn't seem to be casting any magic, does it?Just restored his tail like this?
This doesn’t seem to be in line with what a normal cat should be like!
The scene continued, Tom was very angry and the two men chopped off his tail, and the whole cat's face turned red.

Then he rolled up his fur sleeves, revealing his red skin, took out a mace from somewhere, and gave it to the two of them.

Bang!
The two men were immediately knocked away and turned into two shooting stars.

Dumbledore: "."

After seeing this scene, he was shocked and surprised.

Is this cat some kind of magical animal?

But this cat seemed to show "human" characteristics and had magical abilities, which surprised him.

He turned off the mirror image and used magic to come to Tom and make contact with it.

I found that this cat, which was not even half as big as him, could actually understand his language.

When he said "Are you Tom?", the cat nodded and took out a business card from its leather "pocket" to prove its identity.

At that moment, Dumbledore felt that the world was so big and full of wonders.

Could this be what the mysterious Eastern country across the sea calls "being a spirit"?

Finally, he brought Tom to Hogwarts Academy, completed the transfer student registration, and naturally became a member of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

The memory ends here.

Flitwick probably felt a little confused after hearing what Lao Deng said.

"To be honest, if I weren't familiar with you, I would have thought you were telling a story, but looking at your expression now, it doesn't seem like it is a story."

Dumbledore shrugged: "But that's the fact. Let's not talk about it for now. Since Tom has this skill, I think the three little lions will go to taste Mr. Cat's delicacies tonight, and I will join in by then. , do you want to come?"

"I still don't want to, I want to go back and rest early."

Professor Flitwick refused.

"Then have a good sleep!"

Professor Flitwick left Dumbledore's office.

"But how did I send an invitation to this magical kitten?"

Watching Flitwick disappear from sight, Dumbledore frowned and muttered to himself.

"Okay, I guess it's because I'm getting older and my memory has become worse. Forget it, let's just read a book!"

After thinking for a while and unable to recall this impression, he simply stopped thinking about it and opened a magic book to read.
