Since the failure of the plan to become a girl, a lot has changed.

First, Malfoy has become more vigilant, and it's now almost impossible to follow him to the Room of Requirement, even if he turns into a cuter girl.

Secondly, Harry and Ron's mental state became more of a loss.

Ron was extremely nervous, and in addition to the effects of that failed plan, it could also be the result of his deteriorating relationship with Lavender, who now often avoided Lavender or quarreled with her.

Of course, the upcoming apparition exam did not do much for his mental tension either.

Evan now often sees Ron holding a booklet from the Ministry of Magic, "Common Mistakes in Apparition and How to Avoid Them", and looking down at it, hoping to find something that will increase the power of his apparition.

He took some more polyjuice potions from Aven, saying it was to relieve tension. As for why the compound decoction could relieve tension, Evan didn't ask much, he felt that this should be a new world that he wouldn't want to know......

Harry didn't have any emotional troubles, didn't have to think about the apparition exam for the time being, and didn't need to use polyjuice potions to relieve stress, but after the failure of his last plan, he had to accept the reality and focus on reforming Slughorn.

Speaking of probation Slughorn, Evan and Harry have been giving each other a lot of gifts lately.

Everything from cheap snacks to valuable magical alchemy items and potion materials.

Slughorn accepted it all happily and never refused, but as soon as the two of them mentioned that memory or showed that kind of sign, he quickly changed the subject, or just dodged it, changing his face and running away with a speed that Evan had never seen before.

It is not easy to get anything out of this cunning "old seal".

He must have known what Evan and Harry were up to, but he wasn't ready to hand over that memory that had been hidden for decades.

Even Aivan, who was mentally prepared for this, had to admit that it was a difficult task.

Sometimes, he even wondered if Slughorn had deliberately rubbed on his and Harry's gifts.

Because, his intention to do this is too obvious.

After the eighty-seventh defeat, Evan had to follow the plan that had succeeded in the original book, hoping that it would succeed, and to be on the safe side, he felt that he would still use Aragog's corpse, which was very rare potion material.

As a Potions Master, Slughorn couldn't have been uninterested in it.

For this reason, Evan asked Hagrid several times to confirm Aragog's physical condition.

That morning, they finally received a note from Hagrid, a note about Aragog's death.

The old spider had finally ended its long life after holding on for so long, some time earlier than the time recorded in the original book, which may have a lot to do with the tossing and turning of Evan in his lair before.

Hagrid said more than once that Aragog was saddened by the demise of its children and grandchildren, and that it was always condemning the students in the castle.

The note was brought by Hedwig, and the handwriting on it was messy and sloppy, and there were large ink stains on the paper, making it difficult to read.

Dear Aven, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Elaine,

Aragog died last night.

Aven, you have met him before, you know how special he is, and in the last moments of his life, you have asked him about his physical condition many times, and you have done a lot for it, thank you for your help. In fact, Aragog was also very impressed with you, and until the last moment, he remembered you, and it was a pity that you were too busy to come and see him.

And Harry, Ron, Hermione, Elaine, I know you'll love it too, you've mentioned it so many times. Elaine, in particular, you've always been so interested and loving to Aragog, Little Glop, and the other cute animals I raised.

If you can, I hope you can come to the funeral tonight, it means a lot to me.

I plan to have a funeral at dusk, which is his favorite time of day. I know you're not allowed to come out so late, but you can use the Cloak or something. I didn't want to make that request, but I couldn't do it alone.

Hagrid!

"That's all there is to it!" Harry asked, reading the note, handing it to Aven, "what are you going to do?"

"Hmm......" Evan didn't answer, thinking back on his plan to curry favor with Aragog.

"He's crazy!" Ron immediately said fiercely, "tell us to cry over that horrible, hairy spider corpse!"

"And that's not all. Hermione agreed, taking the note from Aven's hand, "He also wants us to leave the castle at night, knowing that the security measures are already a million times stricter, how much trouble it will be to be caught! ”

"But we've been to see him at night before. Harry said.

"Yes, but for this kind of thing?" said Hermione, "we've taken a lot of risks for Hagrid, but after all...... Alas, Aragog is dead, and we have not seen it while we were alive, let alone have any affection for it. ”

"I'd like to see it!" Elaine said, "the world's largest eight-eyed spider sounds amazing." ”

"It sounds creepy. Ron corrected, "I'm not going to go anyway, I haven't seen Aragog, but I've seen the other eight-eyed spiders, it must be several times their size, I think Hagrid would be much better if it died." ”

Hermione didn't continue to express her opinion, but looking at her expression, it was obvious that she didn't want to go, it was too worthless to be locked up for this reason.

Harry hesitated as he looked down at the note that had finally been put back into his hand.

Staring at the ink stains on the paper, there were obviously big drops, big tears falling on the parchment,

"I'm going to check it out, you know, Aragog is a rare potion material. "Remember, the venom of the eight-eyed spider is very precious and has a high market price, especially the venom of Aragog, the largest eight-eyed spider in the world, and I plan to collect a little while attending the funeral, which can be given to Slughorn as a gift." ”

"Slughorn as a gift?!" everyone looked at Evan in amazement.

"yes, I'd actually recommend inviting him to collect it himself, it's better than giving it to him. "Harry, we'll invite him later, and if we can, drink some elixir, we need a little more luck to influence him." ”
