Chapter 273: The Returning Hagrid

Throughout the Easter holidays, Rove spent his entire Easter holiday in a state of two shifts.

He had to fight with three girls during the day, and at night he had to take Shirley to his bed to study lucidescence and the Imperius Curse...... It's so busy!

Of course, the effect is still very significant.

Although Rove can defeat the three girls every time, in the face of their increasingly skilled combined attacks, he is not easy, and he must increase his suppressive strength little by little in order to deal with them.

It can only be said that under his hard work day by day, Shirley, Hermione and Fleur have indeed grown by leaps and bounds!

In the midst of this hectic activity, the Easter holidays are over, the students are ushering in the summer semester, and Hagrid is finally back after a months-long absence.

On this day, after the herb class, the Hufflepuff and Gryffindor students parted ways and walked towards the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

Before they arrived at the wooden house, everyone saw a tall figure standing in front of the house in the distance, waiting for them.

Since Rita Skeeter's report came out, Hagrid has disappeared without a trace, and many students thought he had been expelled or imprisoned in Azkaban.

The little wizards were amazed, and they all gathered in groups to whisper, and when the Ravenclaw students arrived, the chatter grew louder and stronger.

Finally, some students couldn't hold back anymore and raised their hands and asked:

Hagrid...... Professor, Professor Graplan, why didn't she come to give us a lesson? ”

That's a rather impolite question.

Professor Grapeland is only the acting teacher, and Hagrid is the real professor of the Magical Beasts Protection class, and he naturally teaches classes.

But everything is afraid of comparison, compared to Hagrid, who has taught fried tail snails for half a year, it is still Graplan, the acting teacher, who is more popular and loved by students.

Hagrid also knew this, and not only was he not angry, but he also carefully explained:

"Professor Graplan's temporary business...... Back to the Hebdili Islands...... I'm substitute for the time being. ”

The words were humble and poignant, so the honest and warm Hufflepuff students applauded Hagrid and welcomed him back.

Hagrid was so moved that he took the dirty handkerchief and wiped it again and again against his wet eyes.

As the bell rang, Hagrid led the students towards the pumpkin patch and over to a pile of open cardboard boxes.

The students thought that they had hatched another nest of small fried tail snails, and their hearts couldn't help but sink.

But when I got closer, I realized that it was not a fried tail snail, but a group of fluffy little guys:

They have a long snout, flat front paws, like a shovel, and a whole body covered with black fuzz, which is very peculiar.

Rove and Shirley looked at each other, and both tacitly took off the shiny items on their bodies and put them back in their wallets.

"It's sniffing," Hagrid said, clapping his palms when his classmates had gathered.

"They are usually seen in the mines, and they like shiny things......"

Before Hagrid could finish her sentence, a sniffer suddenly jumped up and jumped on top of Hannah, screaming in fright, and fled with her school bag in her hand.

The sniffer didn't linger too long, it jumped onto a stake and played with a hairpin studded with a water diamond.

Hannah touched her hair and shouted, "My hairpin was stolen......"

Neville immediately lunged at Sniff in a heroic manner, but Sniff kicked his hind paws, took advantage of the momentum, jumped on the arm of another student, and stole a watch again.

Sniff staggered in and out of the crowd like this, tossing and turning, and not only did everyone fail to catch it, but also lost seven or eight items.

For a time, the scene was extremely chaotic.

Sniff is a master of escape, so he won't be able to catch it.

Rove, an expert at sniffing, picked up a gold coin from his pocket, and it shimmered in the sun.

When the sniffer saw this, he couldn't take his eyes off it, and immediately lunged at Rove and snatched Garon away.

But in the next second, Garon turned into a rope, sniffed and fled in a hurry, changing the course several times, still wrapped around his ankles by the rope that followed him.

Sniff jumped up and grabbed the branch with both paws, trying to flip over the tree, but was dragged to the ground.

With another flick of his wrist, the rope bent in a beautiful arc, dragging Sniff back like fishing.

Shirley bent down to grab Sniff and lifted it upside down, shaking it vigorously as if shaking a quilt.

In the next second, a large amount of shiny things fell from the sniffing belly pocket and hit the ground with a bang.

The students stepped forward to get their belongings back.

It cooed angrily, apparently scolding badly.

However, the ponytail girl reached out and scratched her fluffy little belly, and it immediately stopped screaming, but comfortably emitted a pleasant "purr" sound.

"Everybody put the shiny East XZ up, don't be stolen by Sniff." Hagrid exclaimed, "Next, we're going to play a little game with these sniffs!" ”

He pointed to the large area of newly opened land and said, "I buried some gold coins in the ground, and whoever picks and sniffs and digs up the most gold coins will give a reward to whomever he wants." ”

Hearing that there were gold coins buried in the ground, the little wizards, who were not very happy just now, rushed towards Hagrid, and it seemed that if they were slow for a second, they would not be able to pick the best sniff.

Rove also picked a half-sized sniffer and threw it into the ground, and it began to burrow in and out of the dirt like a fish in water.

When the sniffers find the coin, they will hurry back and put it in the hands of the students.

Rove held a handful of gold coins, knowing that it was the gold of the leprechaun.

Created by the leprechaun using magic, these coins resemble regular Galleon coins in appearance and feel, but disappear after a few hours.

Therefore, the sniffers will not be nostalgic and give it directly to the wizard.

However, the little wizards didn't seem to know that they were still working in full swing, and some even secretly hid the gold coins in their pockets.

At this point, Hagrid leaned over and asked uncertainly, "Is the content of this lesson okay?" ”

"Yes." "Everybody loves these sniffs. ”

Hagrid breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that the lessons he had prepared would still not be recognized by the students.

One of the sniffers came running and put a large handful of gold into Shirley's hand, she took the freeze-dried from her pocket, rewarded it, and whispered:

"Hagrid, welcome back."

"Thank you. Hagrid laughed, "I didn't want to come back, but Professor Dumbledore went to the Forbidden Forest to find me and invited me back, and he said that there was something for me to do, and I had to come back." ”

"What's the matter?" Rove curious.

"Dumbledore asked me to help design the third project for the Triwizard Tournament." Hagrid glanced around and lowered his voice:

"You guys come out quietly tonight, and I'll take you to see the game."
