They left the castle and walked through the fields. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Hagrid lived in a small log cabin on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, with a masonry and a pair of rubber galoshes in front of the gate.

As Louis knocked on the door, they heard a nervous struggle and a few muffled barks coming from inside the house.

"Back off, tooth, back off. Hagrid opened the door open a crack, revealing his large, bearded face.

"Wait," he said, "back off, tooth." Hagrid let the four of them in, clutching the collar of a large black hound.

There is only one room in the chalet. Ham and pheasants hung from the ceiling, boiling water was boiled in a brazier kettle, and a large bed was placed in the corner, and the bedding on the bed was still made of fragments.

"You're welcome. Hagrid said, letting go of the hound's collar.

Toothtooth immediately lunged at Ron and licked his feet, and it was clear that Toothtooth looked as fierce as Hagrid, but not at all scary.

"Another little Weasley brother, right?" Hagrid looked at the freckled Ron, "I've spent most of my life trying to get the twins out of the Forbidden Forest. ”

"Introduce myself, Mr. Hagrid, my name is Louis and Louis Pendragon, this is Linda" Louis stood up and saluted slightly, and Linda followed suit.

As a nobleman, you don't look down on people because they have a lower status than you, that's the practice of the nouveau riche. True aristocrats have the same respect for kings and beggars.

"You're from Pendragon?" Hagrid scrambled to his feet, "Oh, Mr. Pendragon, I thought you knew that I was just a ranger and not a professor, so you don't need to be so polite to me. ”

The Pendragon family is very famous in the wizarding world as a family with a long tradition, and Louis, as the heir of the Pendragon family, is so polite to him. Hagrid's already red face grew even redder, as if he was upset by Louis's salute to him.

"You're welcome, you're one of the people Headmaster Dumbledore trusts, and he once said he could trust your life with confidence. "There are very few people who can be trusted so much by the most powerful white wizards." ”

I don't know if it was because of Louis's words or because of the fire of the brazier, Hagrid's face turned even redder.

"Yes, Professor Dumbledore trusts me a lot, and of course I trust him a lot. Hagrid said with a little excitement, "Oh, you know, I believe in him more than I believe in myself. ”

"Look at me, I forgot there's a rock crust cake!" Hagrid said, clapping his big hands and pulling out some of them.

Louis thought he was biting a rock when he ate the rock crust cake, and he almost knocked his teeth out. He quietly unleashed a little magic to soften the rock-hard cake in his hand, and of course brought Linda with him. As for Harry and Ron, oh well, may Merlin bless their teeth.

During this time, Harry and Ron complained to Hagrid about Filch and his cat, and they seemed happy when they heard Hagrid call Filch "that old rice bucket", apparently having found a like-minded person.

Linda, on the other hand, looked at Louis with resentment, if he hadn't come with him, then she wouldn't have to suffer this sin. Linda has a little cleanliness fetish, she hates dirty, messy, bad places and eats such unpalatable cakes.

Louis almost got goosebumps when he saw Linda's eyes, and he could only give Linda an apologetic look, after all, he didn't expect the environment here to be so bad.
