Chapter 34: Routines

Carl and Hagrid became friends in a way that neither of them expected.

Sometimes, it just happens.

The next day, when Carl opened his eyes, the sun was already shining through the glass of the cabin.

Almost in no particular order, Hermione also got up in a daze.

Hagrid's voice came from the direction of the fireplace, and it seemed as if he was preparing breakfast: "Oh! you woke up, I thought you would sleep a little longer...... You know, so when you wake up, you can eat straight away. ”

With that, he began to keep busy.

It didn't take long for Hagrid to get breakfast ready.

A rich aroma permeates the entire cottage.

It has to be said that Hagrid's cooking skills are simple and crude, but they are full of ingredients to make things, and this is especially evident when it comes to breakfast.

There was a mountain of bread on a plate that was bigger than a tire ring, and the milk was simply bottled in a bucket.

Xu Shi remembered the incident of last night, and Hagrid specially boiled a big pot of porridge.

He gave Carl and Hermione a large portion each, and a large pot for himself.

Because they only drank porridge last night, Carl and Hermione were already hungry.

After the three of them had gobbled up breakfast, Hagrid stood up and said to the two of them, "Let's go, I'll take you back, and if Professor McGonagall asks, I'll tell her you were with me last night." ”

After some tidying up, the three of them walked out of the hut.

The sun was shining brightly outside, but it still couldn't stop the cold wind, but fortunately, the three of them walked quickly, and it didn't take long to reach the castle gate.

This time, the door was unlocked, and Hagrid pushed it open first.

Carrying Carl and Hermione through the foyer to the Great Hall, Hagrid suddenly notices that something is not quite right.

Normally, at this time, there should already be some students sitting on benches in the auditorium eating breakfast, but today, there was no one in the auditorium.

"What's going on?" Hagrid said, confused.

Hermione looked around suspiciously.

Even Carl was a little puzzled.

It couldn't be that Voldemort and Quirrell really did something big last night, right?

Suddenly, a voice came from behind the trio.

"Where did you two go last night?"

It's Professor McGonagall.

She looked tired, like she hadn't had a good night's sleep.

At this point, she was pursing her lips and glaring at Carl and Hermione.

"Professor McGonagall, Hermione and Carl were with me last night. Hagrid explained.

Professor McGonagall glanced at him, then stared at Carl and Hermione with scrutinizing eyes.

"Then why didn't you two go to dinner last night?"

Carl opened his mouth and was about to answer, but Hermione preempted him.

"Professor McGonagall, it's because I ......" Hermione's face flushed slightly, "I wasn't feeling well yesterday, Carl went with me to relax, we forgot the time to chat, so we missed the party, and then when we wanted to go back, the door was locked." ”

Professor McGonagall's tense face immediately relaxed, and she immediately understood what was going on, and patted Hermione on the shoulder.

"Silly girl, you should go find Madam Pomfrey. ”

Then, she turned to Carl, "Alright, there's nothing to do with you two here, Carl, you take Miss Granger to Madam Pomfrey." ”

With that, he ignored the two of them and turned to talk to Hagrid.

Carl was about to leave the hospital when Hermione stopped him and whispered in Carl's ear, "Listen to what Professor McGonagall has to say to Hagrid." ”

Carl shrugged, "What else can I say, let's go, I'll take you to the school hospital, and I blamed me yesterday for forgetting about this stubble." ”

As he spoke, he pulled Hermione's arm.

I didn't pull it.

No......

Carl turned and looked Hermione up and down.

It's pretty thin.

Although he didn't use much force, look at this little arm and leg, is it so energetic?

Before Karl could say anything, Hagrid's voice came from behind them.

"Professor McGonagall, what happened last night?" Hagrid asked.

Professor McGonagall said, "Yes, Hagrid, the trolls in the dungeon escaped during dinner yesterday. ”

Really!

Carl was no longer interested in listening any longer, and was about to add some force to pull Hermione away.

At this point, Professor McGonagall said, "Several students have been injured by trolls and hospitalized. ”

Ouch?

At this moment, even Carl couldn't help but be stunned, and turned around, just as Hermione was looking at him.

The two looked at each other, ready to continue listening.

Professor McGonagall was clearly aware of the situation, though.

"You two, what are you still doing standing here? Carl! Hurry up and take Miss Granger to the school hospital!"

With that, Professor McGonagall and Hagrid walked to the corner of the auditorium, lowering their voices so that they couldn't hear them at all.

Hermione turned around and said to Carl with a look of surprise, "Carl! there's a troll in the school dungeon!"

Carl looked at Hermione strangely.

"You're so peculiar about this, isn't it normal to care who gets hurt?"

Should it be said that it really deserves to be a Gryffindor?

Hermione gave Carl a roll of her eyes and asked rhetorically, "We're going to the school hospital now, won't we know right away who was injured?"

With that, she ignored Carl and began to talk to herself: "Troll, and the big three-headed dog on the fourth floor, the two of them must be related......"

"It must have something to do with the trapdoor at the feet of that big dog!"

"Yes, Carl!" Hermione looked up and said to Carl, "They must all be there to guard what's under the trapdoor!"

"Maybe. Carl said absentmindedly, but his mind was wondering who had been injured by the troll.

Then, he felt Hermione tug at his sleeve.

When he came back to his senses, he saw Hermione frowning and looking at him suspiciously.

"Carl, I didn't tell you about the three-headed dog on the fourth floor and the trapdoor, did I?

"Do you know something!"

The last sentence, although it is a question, is in an affirmative tone.

I'm going! I'm being tricked?

Carl's eyes widened and he looked at Hermione in surprise.

However, this state lasted less than a second.

Then, he immediately changed to an inexplicable look, and tried to make the transition between the two expressions more natural.

"How could it be? I just didn't react!"

After that, he looked at the girl innocently.

Hermione stared at Karl's face for two seconds, and then she had a look on her face.

"Sure enough, you know!"

The expression on Karl's face immediately froze.

Strangely, Hermione didn't even follow up.

"Let's go, accompany me to the school hospital. ”

With that, he walked to the school hospital with his head held high.

Karl had to follow dejectedly, like a defeated rooster.
