Chapter 42: Malfoy's body is honest
"I won it." Hagrid struggled to take his eyes off the dragon.
"Last week, I was drinking in the village and playing cards with a stranger."
Malfoy couldn't believe Hagrid's "good luck", "You can win a dragon egg by playing cards!" ”
Rig, Harry, Ron, and Hermione looked at each other.
The dragon eggs came too easily, which gave them a bad premonition.
"How are you going to raise little dragons, I read from the book that they can grow to be bigger than your house." Hermione asked with concern.
Malfoy also looked intently at Hagrid.
If only he could keep the little dragon at Hogwarts, wouldn't he be able to come and see it every day?
After thinking about it, I can touch it every day after class......
The dragon's attention was drawn to the ornament on Malfoy's body, and he stumbled a few steps forward.
Throw herself into Malfoy's arms.
It might have been a softer mat, but Malfoy's mind was blank.
Happiness came too suddenly.
"Oh, oh Merlin's wizarding robes, I ......" Malfoy was so excited that he couldn't even say a word.
Hagrid watched with jealousy, he was Nobel's mother.
"I decided to call it Noble," Hagrid said, looking at the dragon, "you see." Noble! Noble! Where's Mom? ”
The dragon continued to tear at the ornaments on Malfoy's body, ignoring Hagrid.
Hagrid's heart was broken.
At this time, Rig looked at the time and reminded them that it was time to go, and that there would be a herbal class in a moment.
Hermione woke up in a dream, staring at the dragon again.
Instead, he pulled Harry and Ron's robes and walked out.
Harry and Ron reluctantly walked out of the hut, feeling the scent of dragon scales on their hands when they came far away.
Everyone has managed to touch the little dragon.
It made them feel as if they had established some kind of connection with the dragon.
A sense of responsibility is emerging.
Malfoy skipped class directly, so he didn't want to leave Xiaolong.
And the little dragon liked him very much, Malfoy thought to himself.
Hermione glared at Malfoy, seeing that he was unmoved.
And Malfoy wasn't her friend.
The body of the foursome goes back to the herbal class, but the soul does not.
No one listened to what the professor said in class.
Even Hermione was in a trance from time to time, remembering the adventure just now, the touch of the dragon scales under her hands.
Even though she had learned a lot of magic, she never imagined that she would one day be able to touch a dragon.
A living dragon.
After class, Rig wanted to borrow Hermione's notes to take a look.
Hermione blushed as soon as she looked at her notes, which were full of dragons.
Refusing to hand the notes to Rig.
Ron saw Hermione's notes and was about to laugh loudly.
was covered by Rig's mouth.
Brother, I'm here for your good.
Ron was speechless, and Rig waited until Hermione went to pack her things before letting go.
Harry was also speechless at Ron's big strip, glad that he still had a better brain than Ron.
Once Hermione had finished packing her things, the boys headed straight for Hagrid's hut again.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw Malfoy, under Hagrid's guidance, feeding the little dragon.
Hagrid laughed as he looked at the boys' eager hands.
Pull out a tome from under the bed and let them read it.
"You guys study first." Hagrid said, pointing Malfoy again.
"This is 'Raising Dragons for Recreation and Profit) that I borrowed from the library. Sure, it's a bit outdated, but it's very comprehensive. You didn't catch up when the eggs were hatched. Put the eggs in the fire because their mother exhales into them. ”
Malfoy joined them in letting out a regretful sigh.
Hagrid continued: "You see, it's written here, and when it hatches, feed it a barrel of brandy with chicken blood every half hour. Look here again: How to distinguish between different eggs. What I got was a Norwegian Ridgeback. It's rare. ”
He looked smug, but Hermione felt that Hagrid had given too little thought.
"Hagrid, don't forget that you live in a wooden house." She said.
But Hagrid didn't listen at all.
He played with the fire and watched the quartet experience feeding one by one, humming a little tune happily.
Hagrid is now Happy Hagrid and has stopped thinking.
But Rig and Hermione didn't.
They talk to Malfoy, who has also come to his senses, about the Hogwarts rules.
Hermione and Malfoy knew the school rules best.
Hermione was because she had read the Hogwarts History and the School Rules Booklet before she entered the school.
Malfoy was for, and he himself was embarrassed to say it now.
He was trying to find a way to fire Harry and Rig, and it would be better if he could deduct Gryffindor's points and let Slytherin continue to win the House Cup.
What would Hagrid do if someone found out that he was illegally raising dragons in his cabin?
"Hagrid," Hermione said, "how fast did the Norwegian Ridgeback grow to the bottom?" Hagrid was about to reply,
"Just let it go," Harry persuaded, "and let it go." ”
"I can't," said Hagrid, "it's too small to die." ”
They looked at the little dragon, which was only the size of a doll.
But according to the book, in just one week, it can be three times as long.
Hagrid swore that the dragon wouldn't affect anything, but both the boys and Malfoy expressed disbelief.
Malfoy stared at the dragon, wondering if he could keep it in his own home.
Not surprisingly, he was rejected by Lucius again.
Even if he swore that he did get a dragon, Lucius just coldly told him to throw it away.
Enraged, Draco vowed not to send Lucius any more this year.
Sure enough, three weeks later, Noble was grown.
Clouds of smoke puffed out of its nostrils.
Hagrid's hut was roaring all the time, and Noble wanted to roar loudly, but he hadn't learned yet.
It was a good thing he hadn't learned, or Hagrid's hut would have been set on fire.
Hagrid put aside the job of guarding the hunting grounds because the dragon was messing with him.
The floor was littered with empty brandy bottles and chicken feathers, and the fireplace was piled with burnt wood that crackled all day.
The boys and Malfoy came from time to time to help feed Noble, but now Noble was eating too much.
A few people were too busy to feed them.
Hermione didn't have time to summarize her notes, and Rig didn't have time to go to senior class.
Professor McGonagall came to him worriedly and asked if he was sick.
Sitting back and waiting is not Rig's style.
"Hagrid," Rig said, slapping the wooden table and raising his voice.
"In two weeks, Noble will be as long as your house. A passing student may find out at any time! ”
Hagrid bit her lip. "I, I, I know I can't keep it forever. But I can't just throw it away, I can't. ”
The mere thought of Noble leaving him filled Hagrid's eyes with tears.
Rig turned to Ron abruptly.
"Charlie." He said.
"You're confused," Ron said, "I'm Ron, remember?" Charlie and I weren't twins like George and Fred, so you can remember wrong. ”
"No, I mean your brother Charlie. In Romania, study the dragon Charlie. We can tell him to pick up Noble. ”
Malfoy was still looking forward to it, but in the end, Noble was left unattended, and he begged his father again.
"Charlie can take care of it and put it back in the wild."
Hearing that Weasley could raise dragons, Malfoy was both envious and jealous.
He also wants to raise dragons in the future, but there is also the responsibility of the Malfoy family on his shoulders.
He can't be so willful.
"Awesome, hahaha!" Ron laughed and said, "How's it going, Hagrid?" ”
Looking at Hagrid, who was crying silently, Ron handed Rig a look of help in his eyes.
Rig Forehead.
In fact, this was discussed and rehearsed by them in advance.
But Ron's acting skills are so bad that Rig is really afraid that Hagrid will not agree.
Eventually, after much consideration, Hagrid finally agreed that they would send an owl to ask Charlie first.
