Chapter 20: Hagrid's Cottage
Harry was tossed high by the enthusiastic fans, and his happy mood made him feel like he was in the clouds.
In the end, Hagrid grabbed Harry, who was waving his arms in the air, and led him back to the cabin.
Carno, Hermione, and Ron were waiting for him in the cabin, and when they saw Harry come in, they raised their hot tea in their hands to welcome him.
Harry felt the bitter cold at this time, and hurried to Hagrid's small stove to grab a cup of hot tea.
"Congratulations Harry." Ron congratulated himself, "You're going to be a legend in this game today." ”
Harry was still a little flustered, but Hermione's words calmed him down immediately.
"Your broom is not a malfunction, but someone has cursed it." Hermione said solemnly, "I saw Snape's eyes on you just now, and his mouth kept chanting incantations. ”
"But Kano stunned Professor Quirrell behind him, and then your broom was back to normal."
Hermione looked distressed, "Now it seems that Quirrell is casting a curse on you, and Snape is unleashing the curse on you. ”
Harry couldn't imagine that Snape, who was embarrassed by him every day in Potions class and often made up all sorts of excuses to deduct his points, would help him.
"But Snape has always looked at me unpleasantly, and Professor Quirrell looks like him, I can't imagine anyone he would hurt."
But something suddenly occurred to him, and Ron seemed to go with him.
"Kano, that copy of The Amazing Quidditch Ball was confiscated by Snape yesterday morning, and I went to his office this morning to get back." Harry patted his thigh, "I saw that one of his legs was bitten and Filch was drugging him. ”
"In other words, Snape tried to enter the three-headed trapdoor on Halloween and get his hands on the contents of it, but was bitten by the three-headed dog."
Hagrid interrupted Harry's reasoning, "You mean Louie? ”
"Lou Wei?"
"Ah, I bought it from a Greek guy in the pub last year, and I lent it to Dumbledore's caretaker this year..."
"What?"
"Nothing," Hagrid realized he had slipped out, "forget the dog, it was Dumbledore and Nicolamay's business." ”
"And who is Nicolamet, that thing is Nicolamay?" Once again, Harry grabbed the key information.
Kano kept his mouth shut and remained silent. He had thought that Hagrid had been ordered by Dumbledore to reveal some information to Harry.
However, after careful observation, Hagrid really did not have a door. Hagrid himself realized this and hurriedly sent these little ancestors out.
"All right, kids! Snape won't hurt students, I promise! Let's go back and rest. ”
A few people walked towards the castle, and Kano couldn't help but remind, "Harry, the number one suspect you encountered in this attack is still Quirrell, don't keep an eye on Snape." ”
Harry was a little irritated: "It's not that I'm staring at Snape, it's that Snape is always targeting me." ”
"And even if Snape helped me this time, how can Snape's leg injury be explained? If he hadn't provoked Lowe, he wouldn't have been bitten. ”
"Snape did at least one of these two things, maybe even both."
Harry came to his own conclusions, and Kano wasn't going to defend Snape.
As the so-called melon field is not acceptable, Li Xia is not the crown. Snape usually had a very poor image in the minds of the students, so it was no wonder that Harry was adamantly suspicious of each other.
Hermione stepped forward to play the round, believing that the focus should be on finding out Nicolamay's identity.
"Next, we're going to go to the library and spend our spare time looking up Nicolame's identity." Hermione paused, "And you can't ask the teacher, or Snape will probably be alerted by this." ”
As Hermione's mouth opened and closed, a string of book titles was announced. Harry and Ron seemed to be suffocating, and they turned all their helplessness into complaining about Snape.
Seeing serious reasoning mixed with a great deal of personal emotion, the search for truth eventually turned into a personal critique of Snape.
Kano shook his head, no longer trying to correct their thoughts, and had no intention of giving Nicolame the identity directly.
Let the children find out for themselves, their nowhere to put their vitality also needs a challenging activity.
At least they'll read for it, and that's a good thing.
Two weeks passed quickly, and Kano watched as the enthusiasm of the three little ones was slowly drained.
Harry began Quidditch training again, Ron opened the book and began to fugue, and Hermione, although not slow in her hands, was clearly starting to lose hope.
Christmas was approaching, and Kano was ready to go back to the house on Privet Road to celebrate the holiday with Kreacher.
Harry, of course, was reluctant to return to 4 Privet Road to face the Dursleys, choosing to stay at Hogwarts.
The Weasleys were going to Romania to visit their eldest son, Charlie, so Ron and his brothers stayed at the school as well.
"Don't forget to look for Nicolame." Hermione was also going home to be with her parents, and before leaving, she told Harry and Ron without much hope.
The two of them also agreed with a non-caring attitude.
Kano wore a tweed coat and a thick felt top hat, and said goodbye to the two of them in a bland manner.
"Have fun during the holidays, and you can look forward to my Christmas gifts for you."
With that, he left the castle with the main army and disappeared into the snowstorm.
"Welcome home, little master!"
Kreacher, dressed in a clean white cloth, came running from afar.
"Long time no see, Kreacher."
The master and servant meet up in Hogsmeade Village, then borrow the fireplace from the Three Broomsticks Bar and use Floo Powder to return to the Privet Road Mansion.
When Kano woke up on Christmas morning, he was surprised to find a thick fir treetop piercing the floor of his room.
"Kreacher?"
"Little master, what do you command?"
Kreacher appears in front of him, and he dresses himself up as Santa Claus, with two pointed ears sticking out of his hat, looking very funny.
Kano couldn't help but laugh: "It's nothing, I'm just worried about whether this house will collapse due to the modification." But depending on how you dress, you're all set, aren't you? ”
Kreacher bowed, his long nose pressed against the floor.
"Little master, everything is arranged."
Kano walked out of the room, and there were golden translucent bubbles floating in the hallway, as well as small silver pompoms. In the center of the living room on the first floor stands a stout fir tree, which is wrapped with a large number of golden-red ribbons and lanterns.
Under the tree was a small pile of colorful gifts, and Kano sat down under the tree with great interest and began to unpack them.
