Chapter 468: The Wounded Hagrid
One Saturday afternoon, Louis and the little maid looked at Hagrid's cabin as they saw Hagrid's blue nose and swollen face, and a huge chunk of fresh meat on his face.
"Hagrid, are you alright?" Louis smacked his lips at Hagrid's pitiful appearance, and anyone who saw Hagrid being beaten to such a bruised and swollen face would find it incredulous.
"Shhh........hh Those guys are really ruthless........," Hagrid grinned.
"Looks like the plan isn't going well?" Louis looked like he had already known.
"You know ......."
In the middle of Hagrid's words, there was a knock on the door of his cabin.
"Here ......." Hagrid walked to the door, holding the piece of meat to his face with one hand and opening the door with the other.
"Hagrid, we're coming to see you. Hermione's voice appeared in the doorway.
"Come on in. Hagrid said happily. In his opinion, there was nothing more important than someone caring about him.
"You're here, Louis?" said Hermione, surprised as she walked through the door and saw Louis sitting in his chair.
"Obviously, isn't it?" replied Louis with a smile.
"Why are you here?" Hagrid sat back in his large chaise longue.
"We heard that you came back to see you, and we thought something had happened to you. Harry said with relief.
"I'm just going to do something for Dumbledore. Hagrid muttered vaguely.
"Is it anything dangerous? I see you're hurt. Ron asked hurriedly, looking very concerned about Hagrid.
"This ........" Hagrid hesitated, he didn't know whether to tell Harry about this, after all, Harry was not a member of the Order of the Phoenix.
"Hagrid, what the hell is going on, you're hurt!" said Harry, a little anxious.
Hagrid glanced at Louis and saw that he had no intention of stopping him, so he spoke, "Dumbledore asked me to make contact with the giants and try to get them to join us. ”
"You're saying that these injuries of yours were caused by giants?" asked Hermione, a little surprised.
"That's right, that's why I put this piece of dragon meat on it. Hagrid said a little depressed, "You know, it's not something simple that can hurt me. ”
"How could Dumbledore try to win over giants, didn't he know that those giants were brainless.......... Sorry, I mean not that smart......." Hermione looked very angry, she didn't seem to understand why Dumbledore would try to woo the giant.
"yes....... But they can't be allowed to join the Dark Lord's army......." Hagrid said.
"Voldemort will also have the giants join him?" Hermione said with a frown, "It's not that Voldemort is a pureblood, let alone a wizard, even half-bloods he can't tolerate." ”
"So Voldemort just wanted them to be cannon fodder. Hagrid said with an ugly face, "You know, the giants aren't very smart, and they can be easily exploited by the Dark Lord. ”
"How did you get attacked by the giants?" asked Harry, puzzled, "If Professor Dumbledore had told you to go, he would have prepared you so that you wouldn't be harmed." ”
Harry was Dumbledore's number one fan, and he didn't believe Dumbledore would let the unprepared Hagrid go straight to the giants.
"Professor Dumbledore gave me an eternal flame to give as a gift to the giants?" Hagrid said.
"Eternal Flame?" Ron looked surprised, "and the Eternal Flame, did you give it to the giants?"
"That's just a title. Hermione explained impatiently, "I think it's just a magic flame that lasts for hundreds of years, and of course, if you continue to cast spells on it, it can indeed be called an eternal fire." ”
"Like Hermione said, the giants loved the gift so much. Hagrid shrugged his shoulders and said, "They prefer cooked meat to raw meat, but they usually only eat cooked meat if the trees are caught in a fire by lightning, so Professor Dumbledore's gift is exactly what they want." ”
"Why would you get hurt if they like it so much?" asked Harry, puzzled. In his opinion, if the giants liked the gift so much, even if they didn't agree to Hagrid's request, at least they wouldn't hurt Hagrid.
"I had already convinced their leader, but when I visited them the next day, I found that the leader had been killed by a dark wizard. And the dark wizard also supported a new leader, and it was the new leader who drove me away. Hagrid looked annoyed, "If I hadn't been fast, I don't think I would have come back." ”
"The Death Eaters must have done it!" said Harry without hesitation.
"yes, that's what I'm worried about. Hagrid sighed, "I'd rather none of them help." ”
"Did you find your mother when you went this time, Hagrid?" Louis asked, taking a sip of his tea. Of course, this is the black tea made by the little maid, and Hagrid's tea here is really too much for him to try again.
"I heard from the giants that she was already dead. Hagrid smiled reluctantly, and said with a pretense of lightheartedness, "She's not a good mother, and I haven't seen her since I was born, so I don't really care. ”
Although Hagrid tried to be as relaxed as possible, it was still easy to hear that he was still sad.
"I'm sorry, Hagrid. Louis said apologetically.
"It's okay, you don't have to care, Luis. Hagrid hurriedly waved his hand. He has always thought that Louis is a rich young master, and he has been bullied for so many years, no matter how stupid he is, he knows the role of a thigh.
In the past, when there was no Louis, he was always bullied by the so-called school directors, and even tried to kick him out of Hogwarts repeatedly, because the Forbidden Forest Warden at Hogwarts did not exist before, and Dumbledore specially set up such a position for him.
This made the group of school directors unhappy, after all, no one wants the school they invested in to have an extra expense that they don't need for no reason. If it weren't for Dumbledore's very strong statement, he would have been kicked out long ago.
And since Louis started trading with him, he hasn't heard the school board talk about firing him. He didn't care what the group had to say, but he couldn't always let Professor Dumbledore stand up for him, could he?
