Coming out of the principal's office, McGoth never thought that the situation in Japan had become so serious. An investigator secretly sent by the British Ministry of Magic disappeared silently, and what made them feel aggrieved was that they could not let others know about this kind of thing, so they could only swallow the bitter fruit themselves.

Headmaster Dumbledore told him that he had paid attention to the problem in Japan after he had learned from Professor Sprout, and later asked the female ghost Sadako, who thought it was indeed strange for the Japanese Ministry of Magic. So he mentioned it to the Minister of Magic, Fudge, Fudge should have sent someone over to take a look at it for the sake of flattery, and he didn't take it seriously, and the investigator didn't find anything unusual in Japan at first, and the daily investigation was very dull, just when he thought it was Dumbledore's fuss, the investigator suddenly disappeared, and several secret contact spells did not respond for several days in a row, and then Fudge panicked, and it is not a small problem for the life of a wizard in this era of peace, It may take him out of office early.

Fudge hurriedly contacted Headmaster Dumbledore, and the headmaster found out that he specially troubled a friend to go over to check, but found nothing, and even the pseudonym used by the investigator did not appear on the flight at that time, Dumbledore's friend felt that something was wrong, he checked it a little, and there was no clue about the investigator in Japan, and he still had a feeling of being watched, so he returned to England overnight to inform Dumbledore.

So that's why Dumbledore came to him, but he didn't know anything but meet a female ghost, and he couldn't help much. Although I am curious about what is going on in Japan, it is no longer accessible to a young wizard of his level, and it is too late to cry in case it hurts the pond fish, so it is better to stay away.

Recently, the professor of each course seems to feel that the semester is coming to an end, and the homework every night is a headache for the little wizards, and the three of them are not just homework, Hermione also specially made a review plan for the three of them, and they read different books every day, for which Ron complained several times, but because Harry and McGoth are serious about it, they also read hard.

Then, at breakfast one day, Hedwig brought them a letter from Hagrid, with only four words written on it: It's almost out of the shell.

Not only Ron, but McGoth and Harry also had eyes lit up, and they couldn't wait to see what the newly hatched dragon was like, but except for Ron who felt that he could skip class, the three of them didn't want to skip class at this time. Ron sighed and accompanied them to a class in herbal medicine, and then the four of them hurried to Hagrid's cabin.

"It's coming out." Hagrid opened the door and said excitedly.

Then get out of the way and let them see the dragon egg on the table, which already had a deep crack in it. The dragon egg was not static, it was shaking now, as if something was about to come out of it, and there was a clattering sound of chewing ice cubes.

They all gathered around the table, holding their breath and watching closely. Just when they thought it was about the same as a chick coming out of the shell, suddenly, with a piercing scraping sound, the egg cracked directly. Out of it came a dark and ugly pterosaur-like creature.

"This is the dragon? It looks a little ugly. Magos said, touching his chin.

The little dragon staggered and fluttered on the table, listened to McGoss's words, and sneezed at him, spewing a few sparks out of his nose.

"And the temper is not small." Ron added.

However, Hagrid ignored their discussion, looking at the little dragon on the table with the eyes of a peerless beauty, and muttered to himself, "Isn't it beautiful?" As he spoke, he stretched out a hand and touched the little dragon's head. The little dragon bit his finger, revealing his long fangs.

"Oh my God, look, it knows its mother!" Hagrid said excitedly.

"Well, Hagrid, I think it's more likely to take you for food." Magos looked at the little dragon biting Hagrid's finger and said, Harry, they nodded in agreement.

"Nonsense, it must know that I worked hard to hatch it." Hagrid's skin is rough and thick, and the newborn dragon can't break the defense at all.

"To be honest, I don't think you feel any hard work other than throwing it in the brazier all the time, if it's hot." Hagrid, who had been upset several times in a row, glared angrily.

"Okay, I'll shut up." As he spoke, he picked up a thin wooden stick and teased the little dragon, he was not as thick as Hagrid's skin, and the little dragon couldn't bite Hagrid, but looking at its fangs, biting him was not like playing. Seeing this, Harry and Ron each found a stick to tease him.

"Hagrid," Hermione was more interested in learning about a dragon than in teasing it, "how quickly did the Norwegian Ridgeback grow to the bottom?"

"Well, it grows relatively quickly, it should grow twice but three times its current size in a week, and its fire-breathing ability matures rapidly between one and three months after birth compared to other species of dragons." Hagrid did seem to know a lot about Norwegian Ridgeback and could answer Hermione's question as soon as he spoke.

"So fast." McGoth was a little surprised when he heard this, didn't he say that the more powerful the creature, the slower it grows, and sure enough, it was all a lie.

"It's fast, but dragons grow at a similar rate." Hagrid's attention returned to the dragon.

"And what is he eating now?" Harry looked at the contents of Hagrid's hut. Doesn't seem like there's anything to make it eat.

"Hey, I'm prepared." Hagrid laughed and took a barrel from the corner.

"Here's ...... Fish? Harry looked at it and wondered, "It still eats fish?" ”

"Of course, Norwegian Ridgeback eats the same diet as other dragons, but it has an extra recipe, and that is fish." As he spoke, he scooped up a small fish the size of his little thumb and handed it to Xiaolong's mouth, and Xiaolong swallowed it without hesitation.

"Dragons are all born to eat meat? You don't need to drink milk or anything. McGoth felt that this scene was a bit unscientific, could it be that the body tissue had completely grown after it came out of the shell.

"Milk? Ha, that's what only small animals need. Hagrid proudly patted the dragon on the head, and the dragon took another bite.

"Okay, Hagrid, the little dragon is indeed interesting, but it's time for us to go to class now, and we'll be late if we don't go back." Hermione looked at the time and spoke.

"Oh, no, it's the first time I've seen such a small dragon, so don't go to the class later." Ron teased the dragon and didn't want to leave.

"Nope." Hermione and Hagrid said in unison.

"Remember to help me find a way to keep it." Hagrid told them again as he sent them out.

"By the way, Hagrid, you haven't named it yet, do you want us to help you?" Magos said with a sudden smile.

Hagrid froze for a moment, he had wanted to come up with a name like a fireball, but seeing that the four of them were interested, he nodded and asked them to come over at night to help Xiaolong come up with a good name.

However, the plan could not catch up with the change, and in the evening Harry went to Quidditch training, and McGoth was also called by Snape for a new round of training, only Ron and Hermione were free, but Hermione saw that the two of them could not go, so they couldn't go, and stayed in the common room to review, and Ron had to go to Hagrid alone to talk about the situation.

It wasn't until the evening that McGoth realized what the new training was, it was actually a wizard battle, but it was not against Snape, but Snape chose a good opponent for him.

As usual, Snape waited for him to arrive and then left Hogwarts with him, stopping until he reached the plains, and threw him a face mask for him to put on. Then he went back and brought over a student with a face mask, and the two looked at each other curiously, but Snape didn't dare to speak.

Snape looked at the two silent students and spoke with expressionless faces.

"This," he said, gesturing to McGoss, "is my current student." If you can win him, you will be my student in the future. ”

After listening to Snape's words, McGoth's eyes glared at the boss, I'll go, do you want to play so hard, isn't this just not allowed for me to lose, but I'm only in the first grade, and if someone from the third grade or above comes, I'll still have a fart. Just as he was about to open his mouth to shout unfair, Snape's cold gaze drifted over. McGoth tugged at his lips and held back the words in his heart.

Contrary to McGoss's mood was the student opposite, who was actually a second-year Slytherin student who was suddenly stopped by Snape after class this afternoon and told him to wait for him in his office at night with his wand. When he went for the night, Professor Snape told him to duel a wizard, and he was stunned, but he didn't ask anything until he saw a student who was just as masked as he was. Now he listened to Snape's words and didn't understand what it meant, the professor is talking based on strength, and letting a professor teach in private is something he couldn't think of before, but he didn't expect to have such an opportunity now, he looked at McGoss's eyes and slowly became excited.

"Duel...... Begin! ”

As Snape's voice fell, the wizard on the other side cast a spell.

"Armor protection!" He couldn't figure out what grade his opponent was, and he was ready to play steadily.

McGoth didn't know what his opponent was thinking, and he used his trained spell without even thinking about it.

"There are many obstacles!"

The second-year Slytherin student couldn't help but smile when he heard McGoth's spell, this spell was good for dealing with spells that had already been used when the magic was not high, but for now, that small obstacle could make the opponent's spell invalid by changing the angle. He smiled triumphantly and lifted his feet.

'Hey, what's holding me back. He groaned to the front.

'So you put the obstacle spell in front of me, you think you can trick me into going back and go straight?' He sneered and prepared to turn sideways to the right, but he was still blocked, and the same was true for the left.

Just as he wondered how it was blocked on all three sides, McGoth had already put away his wand and looked at Snape.

Snape gave a blank look at Slytherin, who hadn't figured out how he was trapped, "He's trapping you with an obstacle charm, and if you're just going to turn around, you won't have to compare." ”

Slytherin was in a hurry, and he didn't think of anything safe, and quickly raised his wand.

"Divided!"

"Boom." The obstacle spell shattered, but before he could be happy, he heard the sound of the other party chanting the spell.

"It's all petrified!" Cancels out the opponent's armor spell.

Slytherin was startled and hurriedly recited a spell.

McGoth looked at the scrambled opponent very calmly,

"It's all petrified!"

"Fainted..."

Snape looked at the student who was frozen and couldn't move, and nodded at McGoss. After the students were relieved of their fixed holdings, they were taken back to school.

The next day, Ron told them that Hagrid had chosen a name for the dragon, which was Noble.

McGoth was a little pity, he had thought of a great name for the little dragon, Nesario. It's a pity that Hagrid has already taken it.

"Hagrid asked us yesterday if there was any good way to keep Noble around, and I don't know what we can do."

"According to Hagrid, it won't be long before Noble grows to the size of his cabin, and he won't be able to hide it then." Harry was also a little nerve-wracking.

"Ron should inform your brother first, and find out more about the Norwegian Ridgeback Dragon. There was really no way for Hagrid to keep him in the depths of the Forbidden Forest. ”

Harry had thought about what Magos said, but even Hagrid didn't know what was in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and even if he put Noble there, it wasn't at this time. You can only raise it and put it in it, but if it is bigger, it will be difficult to hide it, and you can't expect a dragon to nest quietly in the wooden house and be a lady.

A week had passed, and Noble had grown much older than McGoth, but since they often came to feed him, he didn't have much resistance to them, but as it grew larger, the hut was no longer suitable for it.

"Hagrid, have you ever thought about placing it on a distant mountain, at least there should be a huge cave there, or it will be discovered in a few weeks." McGoth looked up at Noble, who had sparks coming out of his mouth from time to time, and said that he hadn't said a word, and that it was estimated that the cabin would be burned down in a few days.

"But I can't bear it." Hagrid looked at Noble pitifully.

"Then either let Charlie come and take it, you can choose one."

Hagrid finally agrees with McGoss, and decides to take a few days off work to accompany Noble to a distant mountain to find his new home.

"Did you say Hagrid is back now?" Hermione asked Magos as she looked at the mountains in the distance.

"Then I'll have to ask Hagrid." McGoth didn't expect Hagrid to go for a week and not come back, and he guessed that Hagrid should be reluctant to let Noble be ready to stay with him for a few more days.

"How could Hagrid want to raise such a dangerous magical beast, in fact, we should have persuaded him at the time." Hermione regretted it.

"Just like you like to read, everyone will always have their favorite things, and that doesn't change."

"And what do you like?" Hermione's big eyes sparkled at him.

"Me," he smirked.

"I like you..."
