Chapter 298: Half-Blood Giant

Ryan happened to be on his way to the library on the second floor to read a book, so he happened to go upstairs with Hagrid. As he watched Hagrid put the Christmas tree in its designated position and shouldered his armor, Ryan finally couldn't help but ask his own question.

"Hagrid, aren't you already magical? Why don't you move this thing with magic?"

"Just getting used to it. Hagrid patted the armor on his shoulder, drawing another shout from Peeves inside. "Seriously, the Santa Ball is a great opportunity to relax. I usually see you and Hermione studying with a book in your hand, but this time you can take this opportunity to take a good rest. ”

"yes, it's Christmas after all. With that, the two of them had already arrived in the corridor on the second floor, and Ryan was about to walk in the direction of the library when he suddenly stopped as if he had thought of something.

"Hagrid, haven't you been getting close to Madame Maxim lately? Ryan asked, looking at Hagrid. Hagrid also paused, and then said a little embarrassed, "yes, after all, I've only seen her as a big woman in all these years." ”

Ryan nodded, then looked around and saw no one else around and said, "Hagrid, as a friend, I need to tell you that you must not talk to Madame Maxim about your giant bloodline in public now, whether there is anyone or not. ”

Hagrid looked dazed, "Why is that?"

"You must know that the entire wizarding world is more important to blood, and generally rejects those wizards with non-human blood. In particular, wizards will be distrusted by the vast majority of wizards once they have the blood of some evil creatures recognized by the wizarding world. Madame Maxim also went through a lot of hardships to become the headmaster, but once others knew that she had giant blood, they would definitely attack her, and at that time most of her life's hard work was in vain. And I guess that a woman as elegant as Madame Maxim doesn't want to be associated with giants to the point of conjuring up something that isn't so good. ”

Hagrid was a little stunned by Ryan's words, but nodded anyway and said, "I know you're doing it for my good, so I swear I won't hurt her by talking to her about it." ”

At this point, Hagrid suddenly reacted and said, "Wait, when did you know I was a half-giant?"

"Shhhhhh Ryan gestured with his hand in front of his mouth. "Most people don't like half-giants, what are you shouting so loudly for. ”

After finishing speaking, Ryan continued to say in a calm tone: "You said that I read books all day, so I can naturally deduce this from your physical resistance and your aging speed, after all, normal people are not as fast as you recover from being injured by magical beasts, and you are not in your sixties and look about the same as you are about forty years old." These traits combined with your extraordinary size made me know you were a half-giant when I was in first grade. ”

At this point, Ryan patted Hagrid's arm and said, "Of course, I think you're a good guy." I'll help you keep this secret alive. ”

After saying that, Ryan left the bewildered Hagrid to study in the library, leaving the bewildered Hagrid standing there dumbfounded.

After an afternoon of reading books in the library, Ryan and Hermione went to the auditorium for dinner together. Because of the presence of foreign guests, the school's food has been kept at a relatively high level recently, especially with a lot of exotic dishes. For example, tonight's German-style grilled white sausage made Ryan very happy.

"The food here in the UK is so greasy. At this time, Fleur's voice with a French accent came from the direction of Ravenclaw, "I feel like I've gained a lot of weight lately, and I can't wear a gown!"

"And no one forced her to eat so much, who is to blame if she can't control herself? Ryan, you should at least win against this woman who only cares about herself. Hermione said to Ryan beside her with some discomfort after hearing this.

"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be able to outshine her. Ryan replied vaguely as he drank the German-style creamy shrimp soup.

"Don't have food in your mouth when you speak. Hermione picked up the book on the stool and patted Ryan lightly, but judging by her expression, she should be satisfied with Ryan's answer just now.

After eating, the two of them chatted for a while about Transfiguration before getting up to head back to the common room. As they walked to the foyer with the book in their arms, they saw a large crowd gathered there, and there was a loud voice from Ron.

"Miss Delacour, may you be my dance partner?"

"Is he crazy?" said Hermione as she squeezed to the front of the crowd under Ryan's pathway, and sure enough, she saw Fleur standing with a few Beauxbatons girls and looked at Ron with a look of contempt, as if he was a sea cucumber or something, and didn't bother to answer at all.

In this awkward atmosphere, the blood on Ron's face suddenly receded, and then he covered his face and escaped into the crowd.

"He's going to be fine, is he?" asked Hermione, who was still kind, a little worried after reading the joke.

"It's okay, didn't you see Harry and Ginny go up and help him? Ryan had been seeing well since mastering Hawkeye, and easily crossed the crowd to see Ron being helped away by Harry and Ginny.

When Ryan and the others returned to the common room, they saw Ron sitting there with a dead face, several people comforting him.

"It's okay, Ron. Fleur is a half-breed girl, maybe she just had the magic of charm to be released at that time. Ryan stepped forward and persuaded.

"Half-breed girl, really?" asked Ron as if he had grasped a lifesaver.

"Really, when I checked the wand that day, Fleur said that her grandmother was a baby. Don't believe me, ask Harry. ”

Harry nodded hurriedly to indicate that what Ryan said was true, which finally made Ron's face a little better. But his face quickly fell, "Harry, Ryan, you've all found a dance partner, but I don't have a dance partner yet." By the way, Ginny, can you come with me to the prom?"

"Dude, that would make it look like I don't want anybody. Besides, I've found a dance partner. ”

"You've found a dance partner, who?" said Ron, looking incredulous.

"It's my private business, you just need to know that someone can appreciate your sister. Ginny said in an exaggerated tone.

Ron spent the rest of the day thinking about it, and Ryan took the opportunity to whisper to Harry, "You didn't tell Ron about Ginny being your dance partner?"

"Nope. Harry shrugged. "Ginny and I both think it's better to talk about this kind of thing then, otherwiseβ€”" Harry whispered to Ron, who was nagging his sister.

"Well, you're right. Ryan also made an empathetic expression at this time. There is indeed something that is not suitable to say in advance with such an older brother.
