Homecoming from Hogwarts

Chapter 18: A Frightened Hagrid

Tick, tick--
The sun has been hanging high in the sky at some point, and the constant light and heat make the white-capped land shine brightly.

The sunlight reflected into the house brightened the dark cabin, and the droplet bacteria melted from the thick ice cones under the eaves gathered on the ground to form a small clear puddle.

"...When I returned to the castle the next day, heard about it, and saw the Forbidden Forest with my own eyes, you three should be able to imagine how shocked I was!"

The vigorous stove dried up the water in the kettle. Hagrid hurriedly got up and pushed the door out with a hot handle. Immediately there was a clicking sound outside the room. After a while, he left again with a kettle full of crushed ice. Coming in, Hagrid couldn't help laughing when he found the three of them in the room still looking stiff and with their mouths slightly open.

"It seems that you like this story very much?"

"like?"

Ron jumped up, his ears were red, and he yelled at Harry excitedly, "Why has no one ever told me at home, well, maybe Bill and Charlie did, but I forgot, don't Look at me this way, Hermione, I was only six years old, and you wouldn't be able to remember. Anyway, "

Ron looked at Harry again, and gasped, shouted,

"Can you believe it, Harry, he was only in the fifth grade, and he was about the same as Percy is today. If someone told me that Percy could have a hand with Headmaster Dumbledore, I would probably laugh at him until graduation!"

Harry grinned, he knew what Ron meant,
"Has anyone ever done that, Hagrid?"

Harry's voice was too high-pitched, and he felt his blood was boiling, as if he had fought with Dumbledore, although he knew that he would never stand on the opposite side of that venerable headmaster ,
"Don't even think about it, Harry!"

Hagrid burst out laughing,
"There is no little wizard who can do it in the fifth grade. Maybe there will be, but he didn't do that. Anyway, let alone the little wizard who is not an adult in school, even in the entire British wizarding world, you can't find a few who can match it." The greatest headmaster that Hogwarts has ever seen made a move!"

There was pride in Hagrid's voice, but you had to admit he was telling the truth.

"You guys be quiet!"

Hermione, who was also emotionally excited, loudly stopped Harry and Ron, who were a little overexcited. Of course, she had to admit that she was also excited. She never expected that the handsome and gentle young wizard she met in the school hospital last night would have Such a brilliant 'record'!
"And then, Hagrid, your story isn't over yet!"

Hermione clutched Harry's invisibility cloak tightly, and stared at Hagrid's bright yellow cat eyes. "What did they do with him, I mean, Mr. Amosta Brayne?"

Harry and Ron also fell silent immediately, waiting anxiously for Hagrid to answer his doubts.

"Later. Let me think about it,"

Hagrid ran his thick beard with his sausage-like fingers,
"They seem to have locked him up for a whole semester, and then deducted [-] points from Slytherin House... However, Principal Dumbledore added [-] points to him not long after, which almost made Slytherin go ahead of schedule. Locked up the Academy Cup."

"Add four hundred points!"

Harry exclaimed, last year they kept the Sorcerer's Stone in the hands of Quirrell and Voldemort, which was almost the best honor he has achieved since he entered the school, but Dumbledore only added 170 points to them, of which, What counted on him was only sixty points!
"What does Headmaster Dumbledore think!"

While there was nothing to compare it to, Harry was still a little off balance.

"Needless to say, Harry!"

Hermione raised her eyebrows, with a confident smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she had seen through everything,
"They put him in confinement for a semester and deducted points because Mr. Blaine broke into the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night and attacked his classmates with very powerful magic. [-]% because he saved the entire Gryffindor team's little wizards and Bill."

"save?"

The confusion on Ron's face was very clear, "Didn't they be brought down by Brian?"

"Don't be silly, Ron,"

Ron's slowness was not unexpected, and Hermione explained angrily, "Think about it, Ron, if Mr. Blaine hadn't gone to the Forbidden Forest that night, who would have met that mysterious man?" Dark wizard?"

hiss!
Ron suddenly took a breath of cold air, his eyes widened and he understood,
"It's Charlie, and everyone on the Gryffindor team at the time!"

Hermione nodded, and said in a satisfied tone, "I'm glad you finally figured it out, Ron, and with Bill, he saved eight lives, huh, fifty cents!"

"So that means, Hagrid, Dumbledore confirmed that a dark wizard really broke into Hogwarts, did he catch that person?"

Harry was more alert than Ron or Hermione, it occurred to him suddenly.

"Yeah, he confirmed it."

Speaking of this, Hagrid suppressed his smile and looked solemn,

"That night, after Bill woke up, the misunderstanding was quickly explained. He told Dumbledore that it was not Amostar who released the Killing Curse, but a dark wizard lurking in the dark. Dumbledore personally checked that Brann's wand was in the Every spell unleashed that night confirmed it.

Later, Headmaster Dumbledore carefully inspected the battlefield. You know, Harry, at the level of Headmaster Dumbledore, he can almost restore the whole story of that battle, but unfortunately, he traced it for a long time, but couldn't find it. Find that daring dark wizard, for which I haven't slept in bed for almost two months, patrolling the Forbidden Forest every day in the middle of the night. "

Hagrid blinked, and said to the three who realized the seriousness,

"This matter was aroused at the time, and the Ministry of Magic also sent elite Aurors into the Forbidden Forest to search, but it was also ignored. In order to suppress the spread of panic, both Dumbledore and Fudge decided to suppress the spread of the attack as much as possible. That’s why most people haven’t heard much about it since then.”

The atmosphere became solemn, and Harry and Ron looked at each other, wondering whether the dark wizard might be Voldemort's minion again, just like Quirrell.
"So I said, Ron, you must have heard of him—"

Hagrid said with a smile,

"Professor Snape released Amosta Bryan during the Quidditch final in the second year. Before that, he had to go to Snape's office every night and every weekend to be confined.
Charlie's Gryffindor team is very strong, they have a chance to win back-to-back championships, but when Snape brought Amosta Bryan on the field, oh, huh, you can imagine Prien What would happen with Philoa? Seriously, the two of them didn't just get on the broom and escape, and they already deserved the name of Gryffindor. "

"It seems that Slytherin occasionally produces a wonderful fellow-"

Ron muttered quietly.

"There are plenty of famous Slytherin wizards, Ron,"

Hagrid laughed. He looked at the sun outside the house and realized that it was getting late, and it was time to prepare lunch.

"The story is over, three little guys, do you want to have some lunch with me?"

"Oh!"

Hermione came back to her senses, and called out in horror,

"Damn it, Madam Pomfrey, I actually forgot the time!"

She put the invisibility cloak on herself, only showing her head outside,
"Next time, Hagrid, I have to stay in the hospital hospital recently!"

As she said that, she ran out in a hurry. Harry and Ron obviously preferred the food in the school, so they hurriedly got up to follow Hermione.

"Oh, that's right."

Hagrid, who was a little disappointed, suddenly remembered something, and he shouted at the back of Harry who was walking away quickly,

"The three of you haven't told me why you asked about Bryan!"

"Mr. Blaine has returned to school!"

Harry didn't look back, but just waved his hands above his head, "He is now the investigator of the Chamber of Secrets attack!"

Clang, clatter!

Frightened, Hagrid suddenly leaned against the door of the hut, and the room that was hit by the impact suddenly shook violently, and the melted snow on the roof rustled down, burying his teeth directly.

"The Chamber of Secrets investigator from the Ministry of Magic?"

Hagrid's face turned pale, leaning against the door frame and whispering,

"That's impossible. Dumbledore, oh, no, I have to figure this out!"

After a while, Hagrid closed the door with a bang, and strode towards the castle without looking back amidst Fang Fang's barking.
