After the crazy Noble Hagrid disappeared into the fog, the eleven-year-old Hagrid stood in the doorway, looking in the direction of his father's disappearance, his mouth wide open like a goose.

Seeing that he looked like a duck separated from his mother, Aglaia couldn't bear it, so she walked up to Hagrid and asked, "How are you?"

Frightened, Hagrid leaned against the wall, trembling like chaff.

"You...... What else do you want to ...... Why?"

He was so frightened that Aglaia had no idea, and before she knew it, she had become a villain who robbed people of money and bullied other people's fathers.

She was tempted to ask Hagrid what had happened to her and why she was so timid.

But she also knew that she had only met him twice, and that it was a complete stranger, and asking such questions would only make him more frightened.

For a moment, Aglaia was in a dilemma, so she asked Hoffa, "This is the junior you are talking about?"

"That's right. Hoffa said.

"Does he have giant blood?"

Hoffa nodded, didn't speak, for some reason, he suddenly wanted to leave here, leave here alone......

"How old are you?" Aglaia asked Hagrid, turning her head.

The tall boy on the ground glanced at Aglaia in a panic, then at Hoffa in horror, but did not answer, cold sweat on his forehead.

Confused, Aglaia stepped forward, "Hey, I'm talking to you, how old are you, did you hear from Hogwarts?"

Hagrid pressed his palms against the wall, forced a smile that was worse than crying, and his eyes drifted to the door, his feet moving, as if he wanted to flee from this place.

But his thoughts were seen through by Aglaia, who took a step to the right and blocked the escape route.

She crossed her waist: "Why don't you answer my question." ”

"Ten...... Ten...... Eleven years old. Hagrid's voice stammered, his face pale as paper, and it seemed as if the simple words had consumed all his strength.

"Did you get a letter from the owl?" asked Agrea.

Hagrid, who was 1.9 meters tall, nodded weakly, his neck hunched, as if trying to make himself look inconspicuous, but his frame was too big, which only made him look ridiculous.

Aglaia rolled her eyes: "Okay, no one will eat you." ”

Then, she shook her head and whispered disdainfully, "You can't tell Ravenclaw like this." ”

With that, she thrust her wand into her trouser pocket and said to Hoffa, "I'll tell you something." ”

Hoffa: "What's the matter?"

Aglaia lowered her voice, "We should take him away, what if his crazy old dad never comes back, he's only eleven years old." ”

Hoffa stood there and looked at the big boy with some embarrassment, take him away?

All right.....

(No...... ）

(Not true...... ）

(Hey, wait, I've already brought one person, why bring one more person, rationally says: one more person is one more trouble, one more trouble is one day later to get the system reward, why should I bring one more person.) ）

Then, the voice in his head became a little louder.

(Why can't I always do what I want to do?Why do I have to stay with a trouble?Why don't I stop and think about it rationally...... ）

Immediately after, as if talking to oneself, the answer emerged.

(This is obviously wartime, I don't go to the wizard secret realm to improve my strength, but waste time in this kind of place, what the hell am I doing?)

Thoughts split like a virus, taking over his consciousness in the blink of an eye.

Hoffa was agitated, snapped and grabbed Aglaia's wrist, looking very crisp, and pulled her to go out.

Aglaia was taken aback: "What are you doing?"

Hoffa: "Why are you still here, the money has been returned." ”

"Wait a minute. Aglaia pushed Hoffa away.

"What's the matter, grinding and chirping. Hoffa said displeasedly, "Don't you have a job to do?"

"Don't worry, do you know the way?" Aglaia asked rhetorically.

Hoffa was silent.

"Running around without knowing the way?" Aglaia glared at him, turning to look up at Hagrid, "Hey, excuse me, do you know where Heldsburg is?"

Hagrid nodded, his voice weak: "Know...... Know. ”

Aglaea: "Where?"

"To the north...... Thirty kilometers to the north. ”

"Mind taking us there?" she asked immediately.

Rubeus Hagrid was startled, he didn't look at Aglaia, but at Hoffa's face, took two steps back, and slammed the pots and pans behind him to clang.

However, before he could speak, Hoffa first stood in front of Aglaia with his arms crossed.

"No, I don't take him. Hoffa objected.

"Why?" said Aglaia, "we don't know the road, and he knows where Heldsburg is, doesn't he?"

"We don't need a guide, didn't he tell us the way?" said Hoffa, grimacingly.

"Then how can someone else lead the way?"

"Nope. ”

Hofa refused, and he grabbed Aglaia's wrist: "Do you believe me?" ”

Aglaia frowned, "What's the matter with you?"

Hoffa: "What's the matter with me, what do you think is going on, trafficker?"

Aglaia's tone froze, and her eyes widened, as if she wanted to see a little flower in Hoffa's face.

Hoffa shook his head and said, "Listen, Aglaia, this guy obviously has some psychological problems, and now we can't do anything about it. It's not advisable to take a random stranger with you at this time. ”

Aglaia looked at Hagrid, who was sitting on the ground, and said in a low voice, "What if something happens......"

"Does this have anything to do with you?" interrupted Hoffa, "what's the matter with your overflowing sympathy, he has a father of his own, can you handle it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Aglaia was silent, but the temperature on her face gradually began to drop.

Hoffa: "Don't think for the worst, we still have a job, a job in front of us. ”

Aglaia turned his head and saw Hagrid's trembling and massive body, and he lowered his head, not daring to look at the two of them.

"Look, take him away, you can take responsibility for what happens?" Hoffa pointed at Hagrid and said rationally, "Let a father come home and not find his child, do you call this mercy? No, it's a split." ”

Aglaia smiled, and Hoffa had a bad feeling when he saw that her face was starting to look wrong, but he didn't want to change his words. He hadn't thought about himself for a long time, and he needed to think rationally about what he should do.

"What the hell is going on with you?" asked Aglaia, taking a deep breath, "why don't you care about him at all?" ”

Hoffa: "Are you going to go?"

Aglaia: "If you don't make it clear, I won't leave." ”

After a moment of silence, he began to feel irritated, and he felt very annoyed by the insistence of the other party.

(Why this woman has been at odds with herself since the first day they met.) ）

Hoffa said coldly, "You say I don't care, do you care?" the people in the hospital, your mother, the Muggle soldiers. ”

"What do you mean. ”

"I mean, you don't really care about other people. ”

"How I didn't care. "Aglaia was unbelievable.

In the air, an unknown emotion began to brew, and an invisible crack began to appear. Every flaw of Aglaia began to magnify in Hoffa's eyes.

He felt emotions begin to spill out of his brain, and despite his best efforts to balance, he lost his stability.

"It's not easy to take you with you, you won't take anyone with you anymore. ”

"It's not easy?" Aglaia gritted her teeth, "what the hell are you talking about?"

"I'm just stating a fact. ”

"Who do you think I am?" Aglaia grabbed Hoffa by the collar, the muscles of her face twitching with excitement. She gritted her teeth, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

"It's enough for you to be happy anyway, isn't it?" Hofa said lightly sarcastically, "and I'm going to clean up the mess for your willfulness!"

"Happiness is enough...... Haha?" Aglaia crossed her hips, lowered her hand again, and pointed at Hoffa tremblingly nowhere:

"You think I'm here to make war money? You think I'm looking for excitement from you? That's what you think, isn't it!?"

Hoffa did not answer.

"You think I'm exactly like the people in the castle, don't you?" said this, her voice had completely changed.

"Isn't it?" Hofa's voice didn't rise or fall. "They're your family, what's the difference. ”

In an instant, all the fog outside the house stopped flowing, and the glass on the dilapidated hut suddenly shattered, and the glass splashed everywhere, Hagrid curled up on the ground and hugged his head in horror, and the unstable magic fluctuations ruffled Hoffa's hair.

"Then you're done, who forced you to be here?"

Aglaia roared, her face flushed, and she pushed Hoffa away with a frenzied palm, turning her head and striding out, disappearing into the mist in the blink of an eye.

......

......

Hoffa stood there, his eyes wide open. I didn't have any expression at all.

He could barely control his complex emotions, which were mixed with so many unknown reasons, disappointment, unease, exuberance, freedom, and indescribable.

After taking a few deep breaths and working meditation methods, for the first time, he was completely unable to calm down.

He crossed his waist and shook in place a few times.

After a long while, Hoffa finally stopped spinning in circles. He gradually calmed down, and the waves in his mind subsided.

I quarreled with Aglaia again.

(Maybe it's long overdue, what if she gets killed?) ）

He looked at Rubeus Hagrid, the boy cowering in the corner. He was horrified by the dispute that had just erupted between Hoffa and Aglaia.

That expression made Huo Fa feel a trace of compassion in his heart, so let's ask.

"Excuse me, would you like to accompany me on a trip to Herzburg?" asked Hoffa, turning his head, "and when this trip is over, I'll take you to Diagon Alley." Then go to Hogwarts. ”

Rubeus Hagrid looked at him in horror, his Adam's apple twitched, and he struggled to squeeze out a smile: "No...... No...... No need. ”

Hoffa: "Why, people are bullying you here." ”

Hagrid said hoarsely, "I...... My father...... I...... Father, Protect ...... Protect me ......"

Hearing this, Hoffa smiled after a moment of silence: "That's it, I understand." ”

The other party didn't trust him in the slightest, and for Hagrid, maybe he had been stereotyped as a dangerous thug who broke into a house, and as a result, he did.

The result of the negotiation was no different from what he expected, it was completely useless, he couldn't take anyone away, and he couldn't change the boy's fate.

Reason told him that there was no point in dwelling on it any longer.

Having made up his mind, he stood up and strode away into the mist, leaving Hagrid's cabin as a child.

In the dark forest, Hoffa scolded himself for being getting softer and softer lately as he walked. Isn't it true that the more you grow, the more hard-hearted you become?

At this moment, the goal of life became extremely clear, as if a pair of hands held that goal in a silver plate and respectfully handed it to him.

(Find the Wizard's Secret Realm and improve your strength)

(You should do that.) ）

(You have to do it.) ）

(You've been off-target for a long time.) ）

Reason said, proudly.

Hoffa shook his head vigorously, shaking the shadows of Aglaia and Hagrid out of his mind.

"These are obstacles to achieving the goal. ”

He muttered to himself, as if it would make him feel better.

He walked north without squinting, but the corner of his eye was locked on the side of the road.

For some reason, deep down he had a vague feeling that Aglaia might be waiting for him somewhere, and maybe there would be room for their relationship to turn around.

But his rationality told himself that the other party was just a girl with a mind full of excitement in life, she was impulsive, naïve, and disobedient. She is not fit to be her friend, and friends should always be united with her.

The more he thought about it, the faster his steps became.

Forget it, no matter what she wants, she can do whatever she likes. Reason said, let her get into trouble herself.

But the more he thought about it, the more anxiety in his heart spread like a shadow, like a bird in a cage, struggling desperately.

Walked for ten minutes.

Hoffa stopped abruptly. There were large traces of struggle on the ground, and many spells had been cast here.

Wrong.

Aglaia didn't appear for a long time, something was abnormal, she was just a second-year graduate, and she didn't have a broomstick, and she couldn't phanturize, how could she run so fast?

Hoffa slowly turned his body and narrowed his eyes.

Following the traces of the struggle, he came to a broken tree. It seemed to be snapped in two by something heavy, and a branch on the tree caught his attention.

On the branch hung a torn fragment of a bloody shirt.

Staring at the fragment for a few seconds, Hoffa reached out and picked it up, and warmed it in his hand, and it took no more than ten seconds to tear it off.

This is, Aglaea's clothes......

He snorted coldly first, is this guy using a bitter trick to lure himself to come to her?

I think it's beautiful.

Hoffa put away the strip of cloth and turned to walk north without hesitation. As soon as he took a step, he stepped on a pit.

Hoffa looked down at his feet, a large paw print, almost ten times the size of his own foot, deep in the dirt, with a torn cloth inside.
