"Of course..... Welcome ....."

Hagrid's face was flustered and nervous, and he said cautiously. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Come in...."

Waiting for everyone to enter, Hagrid closed the door and closed all the curtains.

By the light of the room, Hermione looked at Hagrid in horror.

Hagrid's hair was messy and cloded with blood. His left eye was swollen into a slit, blue and purple, his face and hands were scarred, some were still bleeding, and he moved very carefully, as if some bones in his body were broken.

He had apparently just arrived home, a thick black travel cloak slung over the back of his chair, and a large backpack large enough for a few children leaning against the wall.

"You don't look good. ”

George frowned slightly, looking at Hagrid now, he knew that the matter of envoying the giant would not go well.

George took a red healing potion from his body and handed it to Hagrid, "I think you need to heal your injuries." ”

Hagrid wiped his hand on his clothes a few times, and carefully took the potion, "Thank you, Headmaster." ”

Hagrid drank the potion in one gulp, and Harry took out his wand and applied the recovery spell to Hagrid's body.

"Thank you, Harry. I'm going to make you some tea. ”

Hagrid limped over to the stove and placed a copper kettle on it.

"Let's talk about it, it seems that the matter of the giant should not be going well. ”

George found a stool and sat down quietly.

Harry and the three of them all looked at Hagrid nervously, and just after the summer vacation, Hagrid went to contact the giant.

No one expected that he would go for so long. And now it seems that even after spending so much time, it doesn't seem to have achieved the desired effect.

Hagrid's face was pale, and he wrung his hands around his chest, not knowing what to do.

"Don't be afraid of anything. George said slowly, "The giants can't communicate, which is expected. It's been a long time since they've been out of the wizarding world, and even if it's a hire, they won't necessarily accept it. ”

He didn't care too much about hiring giants.

In the wizarding world, giants are classified as beasts, not intelligent creatures, and this is not all the prejudice of wizards.

Giants are ferocious, lack intelligence, difficult to communicate, and cannibalism is very serious. The image of giants in the wizarding world is no better than that of trolls.

"They really don't communicate well. ”

Hagrid muttered, "It took us a while to find them. ”

"Where did you find them?" asked Hermione, holding her breath.

"In the mountains. Hagrid replied vaguely.

"Then why didn't the Muggles find them?" asked Hermione curiously.

"It's not that no," Hagrid said in a low voice, "it's just that the cause of their death is always said to be a mountaineering accident, isn't it?"

"That's really, unpleasantly said. ”

George tapped the floor lightly with his foot, knowing that humans caught by giants are not just used to kill. Giants are also omnivores, and humans are rich in protein, which is a good food for giants.

"Giants are so violent and ferocious that they kill even their own people, not to mention other creatures. ”

Hagrid walked over to the whining kettle. Pour boiling water into five bucket-shaped cups.

"Is Madame Maxim alright?"

George asked the most important question.

"Of course. ”

Hagrid patted his chest and said, "I made a promise that I would protect Orim to death." ”

"She's such a classy lady. Hagrid's face had a tender expression.

"I was all conquered by her, Orim she was an elegant, well-fashioned lady. But she's not afraid of hardship at all, you know, we all go to the mountains, and it's not a good place. We climbed rocks and slept in caves, and Orim was with me all the time. But she didn't complain once. ”

George said in the affirmative, "Madame Maxim is a lady worthy of respect. ”

Hagrid smiled silly, "Not only is she respectable, she's beautiful." ”

"What happened next?" Harry asked hurriedly, "You found the giant?"

"Yes, we found the giant, it took us a month to find the place. ”

Hagrid shook his head and said, "That's not easy, after all, there is no connection between giants and wizards, and we must go to those possible places and check them out for ourselves." And giants don't like wizards, they don't like magic, and when we're near giants, we can't use magic. ”

"That's a real nuisance. George said disapprovingly.

In his opinion, it was completely unnecessary to expend so much effort in order to hire a group of useless giants. It's also because Hagrid's time doesn't matter, so he has a few months to spend in contact with a group of giants.

Hagrid nodded, "It's troublesome, and Dumbledore warned us that the Mystic is probably also looking for the giant, and may have sent an emissary." He instructed us to be very careful not to expose ourselves in that area to prevent Death Eaters from being nearby. ”

"Then you found the giant. Harry asked curiously, "How tall and how old are they?"

Giants have disappeared from the wizarding world, and now people can only see information about giants in books. Harry couldn't help but wonder what a real giant looked like.

"That night when we were over the ridge, they were right below, and we saw little campfires, huge shadows, like mountains moving," Hagrid recalled. ”

"They're twenty feet," Hagrid said with trepidation, "and the big one might be twenty-five." ”

"That's high!"

Harry estimated that a twenty-five-foot giant was the height of two Hagrids. Such a monster will not suffer against the fire dragon.

He continued, "How many?"

"I think seventy or eighty. Hagrid recalled.

"Seventy or eighty, that's a lot. George pondered, "A tribe?"

"No, it's all. Hagrid said sadly, "There are only so many giants left." There used to be many, at least a hundred tribes in the world, but they are dying out. ”

He said sadly, "Of course, the wizards killed some, but most of them were cannibalistic. Now they're dying faster, and they're not fit to live together like that. Dumbledore said it was our fault, that the wizards had driven them far away, and that they had no choice but to stay together in order to survive. ”

George said dismissively, "We didn't let the giants kill each other. ”

He said slowly, "But the number of people like this is indeed a little less. It seems that even if you leave it alone, it won't be long before the giants will go extinct on their own. ”
