Chapter 461: Another Lame
"Hagrid, you're alright!"
As soon as the wooden door opened from the inside, Harry was startled by Hagrid's bloodshot appearance.
In order to escape Hermione's annoying revision plan, Harry and Ron convince Hermione to go with them to Hagrid on the grounds that Hagrid had invited them to tea.
"I'm fine. ”
Hagrid's words weren't very convincing, and his appearance looked scary.
The matter of dragon eggs has always bothered him.
Hagrid was desperate to have a dragon egg, but he couldn't figure out how he got it, which made him extremely irritated.
If Quirrell had known what Hagrid was thinking, he would have begged Hagrid to go to the Hog's Head Bar, and he would have served the eggs himself.
Unfortunately, Quirrell couldn't have exposed himself, so his irritability wasn't much better than Hagrid's.
"You don't look like you're fine. ”
Ron muttered, if he hadn't known Hagrid for a long time, he would probably be taken aback by his appearance.
In the face of Harry's questioning, Hagrid didn't say a word about the dragon eggs, only that he didn't sleep well last night.
Hermione guessed the reason, but she couldn't say it directly, thinking that Hagrid would become like this, and that the Eight Achievements were caused by Albert's dragon egg prophecy, and if she wanted to solve Hagrid's problem, she had to go to Albert.
After receiving Hermione's secret hint, Hagrid quickly came to his senses and immediately wrote a letter to Hermione, asking Hermione to help pass it on to Albert.
The content of the letter was simple, it was to invite Albert over for tea.
After leaving Hagrid's cabin, Harry, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped, turned to look back at Hermione, and said, "Do you know anything?"
Ron looked at Harry, then at Hermione, he had felt a little strange from just now, but he couldn't tell what was strange.
"Well, know some. ”
"Don't get out of your mind. Ron urged.
A prophecy. ”
Hermione hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: "About half a month ago, Albert made a prophecy to Hagrid. At that time, I saw him hurrying towards Hagrid's hut, so I followed him. ”
"What prophecy?" Harry couldn't help but ask.
Albert predicted that Hagrid would get a dragon egg. Hermione's face looked very tangled, and she was silent for a long time before continuing: "Albert thinks that Hagrid will hatch a fire dragon from a dragon egg, and it seems that he will eventually burn down his house because of the dragon breeding. ”
"Dragon eggs. Ron's eyes widened in surprise.
"Hagrid has always wanted to have a dragon. Harry recalled that the first time they met, Hagrid had brought it up. "He once told me he wanted to have a dragon. ”
"Yes...... It is illegal to raise a dragon. Ron reminded.
Albert apparently knew this, too, so he ran to warn Hagrid. Hermione sighed helplessly, "It's just, it didn't work out as much as it wanted,...... Hagrid apparently didn't listen. ”
"It costs a lot of money to get a dragon egg, and I'm sure Hagrid can't afford it. "Every time Ron mentions money, he gets very depressed.
"What's the matter with prophecy. Harry cast a quizzical look at Hermione.
"Albert seems to be able to predict the future, but I'm not sure if that's true. Hermione reluctantly said that she didn't know whether the prophecy was true or false.
"There are very few true prophetic masters. Ron reminded. Percy complained that he didn't learn much useful in his divination class. ”
They talk about the dragon eggs as they make their way to the common room, but they don't find Albert.
Hermione was going to try her luck at the library, and Harry seemed to have something to do with Albert, so he went with Hermione. As for Ron, stay in the common room and play wizarding chess with his roommates.
The two failed to find Albert in the library.
"What are you doing with Albert?" asked Hermione, puzzled, not understanding why Harry had followed her to Albert.
"There's something I want to ask him. ”
The two meet Albert halfway to the hall, who is talking to a pretty redhead about something.
Hermione hesitated for a moment, but walked forward quickly and handed Hagrid's envelope to Albert.
"That...... Can I say a few words to you alone?" asked Harry, begging as he noticed Albert's raised eyebrows, but the latter eventually agreed.
"What's the matter, Potter?"
The two walked aside, and Albert asked first.
"I heard Hermione say that you predicted that Hagrid would get a dragon egg, and he seems to be ...... now"
"Well, I kind of see what you mean. Albert didn't wait for Harry to finish speaking, then nodded and said, "It seems that Hagrid can't listen to my persuasion, and his mind is now full of dragon eggs." ”
"Hermione said you'd prophesy. ”
"You believe it?" Albert looked at Potter with a smirk.
"I don't know. Harry shook his head.
"Well, it doesn't really matter if it's a prophecy or not. Albert laughed at himself, "A lot of people don't want to believe in so-called prophecies, especially when they haven't been fulfilled yet." ”
"Can you tell me who got the Philosopher's Stone in the end?"
Harry hesitated for a long time, and finally asked the doubts in his heart.
"Philosopher's Stone, do you mean that treasure hidden in the forbidden area on the fourth floor?" Albert said after seeing Harry nod, "Well, I can tell you. You're the one who gets that treasure in the end. ”
Saying this, Albert suddenly showed a strange smile, "Aren't you happy?" ”
In the end, it seems, Snape didn't succeed. Harry couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, obviously he didn't believe that Albert would prophesy, but after the incident of Hagrid and Hermione, Harry still decided to believe a little more, everyone said that Albert was amazing, and his words were always accurate, even if he really knew divination, it didn't seem to be a strange thing.
"What did you just say to Albert?" Hermione wondered what Harry had mysteriously talked to Albert after Albert left.
"He said I'd get the Philosopher's Stone eventually. Harry hesitated, but told Hermione, "Do you think what he said is true?"
"I don't know. Hermione shook her head, she looked at Harry's expression and suddenly wanted to laugh, knowing that she might have been deceived, why did she still look forward to it so much?
"By the way, the one just now should be the rumored Isobel, she's so beautiful. Hermione's thoughts drifted to the red-haired girl she had been chatting with.
Isobel tells Hermione about the club, and she thinks that Hermione has a chance to join the club organized by the professors.
"Who's Isobel?" asked Harry, confused.
"The genius witch of Ravenclaw, she just won the wizarding card tournament. Hermione was speechless, and sure enough, Harry had never paid any attention to these things.
