Chapter 407: Invitation

Under Darren's question, Hagrid said that he had found a companion for Aragog, and after so many years of reproduction, I am afraid that their individuals have become a terrifying number, you know, this thing can lay up to 100 eggs at a time!

At this time, Darren remembered the eight-eyed spider he had dealt with during the Triwizard Tournament, which was said to be a member of Aragog's family, and was more than three meters tall when he stood up, and the stun spell he fired only made the other party twitch a little, which was to be replaced by the wizard lying down early, oh, probably, except for Hagrid......

According to Hagrid, there is not just one eight-eyed spider, but a group, Harry and Hermione's mouths can't close, and Ron's face is simply white, and the thing he fears the most is spiders......

"Hai, Hagrid, you, do you mean that there are eight-eyed spiders in the Forbidden Forest, or, a swarm?" Ron stammered. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Well, yes," Hagrid said slowly, "but don't worry, they ......" Suddenly, he stopped, apparently remembering the anomaly of the eight-eyed spiders, "Anyway, according to the school rules, you can't enter the Forbidden Forest, it's none of your business, I'll figure it out, alas, poor Aragog, everything is different." ”

Looking at Hagrid's expression, he was really sad for Aragog, although raising an eight-eyed spider is really very dangerous, and such a large-scale reproduction like this will definitely cause damage to the ecological environment of the Forbidden Forest, but he can't be blamed, because I'm afraid that no one in the entire wizarding world understands environmental protection.

Of course, although it's not right, but Hagrid at least really likes it, better than some people who throw pets casually when they are annoyed, or "release them", not to mention any "in fact, I don't care about life or death, just ask for peace of mind", I really don't know how much bad things I have to do to be like this, and I want to "accumulate virtue", which is pure sin!

When they came back from Hagrid's place, it was already dusk, and when they walked into the castle, the foyer was filled with the smell of grilled steaks, and they walked towards the Great Hall, but suddenly Slughorn appeared in front of them, "Harry, Harry, exactly the man I wanted to meet!" he said enthusiastically and loudly, his fingers playing with the tip of the walrus beard and puffing out his belly, "I just want to stop you before eating! How about coming to me for a light dinner tonight? We have a little party with only a few rising stars. I invited McLagan, Sabini, and the charming Melinda Bobbin -- I don't know if you know her, she has a large pharmacy chain at home -- and, of course, I really hope that Mr. Shaun and Miss Granger will also enjoy it. ”

But if you think about it carefully, although he has tried to keep a low profile, and even opened a company quietly, since the year before, he has always appeared in the public eye, and the warriors of the Triwizard Tournament, fighting with the Ministry of Magic and the Death Eaters, it is not uncommon for him to attract attention, but I don't know what the other party's criteria for selecting targets are implemented, but considering that even McLagan can be selected, it is probably the so-called" I will bring it up universally, and I will focus on selection.

"I can't come, Professor," Harry said, "I'm going to Professor Snape and go to confinement. ”

"Oh my God!" Slughorn said, his face suddenly elongated and funny, "Oh my God, I'm counting on you, Harry! Okay, I'll see you three later!" he hurried out of the auditorium, Ron standing still puffing out.

"There's no way he's going to convince Snape," Harry said when Slughorn was gone, "this confinement has already been postponed once, and Snape was last time for Dumbledore's sake, and he's never going to postpone it for anyone again." ”

"Oh, that's terrible, it's good that Slughorn invited you too, otherwise I'd have to go alone!" Hermione said to Darren.

Darren shrugged, "I didn't expect that, how could he be looking for me, I don't know how his food was there? Harry, didn't you go on the train, what did you eat?"

"Well, when we were on the train, we ate pretty well, much better than the food delivery car, I don't think it was bad," despite Harry's words, Darren still ate something, just in case.

After dinner, the few of them returned to the Gryffindor Tower, by which time most of the students had already eaten dinner and the common room was very crowded, but they finally found an empty table and sat down.

Ron had been sullen since they had met Slughorn, with his arms folded, frowning, and staring at the ceiling, as Hermione reached for a copy of the Evening Prophet that someone had thrown on a chair.

"What's new?" asked Harry.

"Nothing ......" Hermione had already opened the newspaper and read through it. "Oh, Ron, look, here's your dad - he's fine!" Ron turned his head in alarm, and Hermione quickly added, "The newspaper just said he went to the Malfoy house,' and the second search of the Death Eater's residence didn't seem to yield anything." Arthur of the Shoddy Defense Charm and Protective Equipment Scouting and Seizure Office. Weasley said his team acted only after receiving information from someone who had secretly revealed it. ’”

"yes, that's me!" said Harry, "I told him about Malfoy at King's Cross, and the thing Malfoy wanted Bokin to fix for him! Well, since he wasn't at their house, he must have brought it to Hogwarts—"

"How could he do that, Harry?" Hermione said, putting down the newspaper with a look of surprise on her face, "We've all been checked when we entered the school." ”

"What?" said Harry, surprised, "I don't!"

"Oh, yes, of course you didn't, I forgot you were late...... Alas, as we entered the foyer, Filch swept our bodies up and down with a sniffer. Everything that is dark magic will be found, and I know that Crabbe has a withered human head confiscated. So you see, there's no way Malfoy could bring something dangerous!"

"Somebody can send something to him through an owl," he said, "his mom or whatever." ”

"All owls are also to be checked. Hermione said, "That's what Filch told us when he stabbed around with a probe. ”

Darren thought of the lock he saw on the gate on the night he entered the school, and the magical light that flickered on the wall from time to time, it seemed that Hogwarts had made a lot of preparations this year, but unfortunately, it was all useless......
