Chapter 386: Backflip
As the only victim of the Dementor attack, Harry had to stay in the hospital for the entire weekend.
There was a steady stream of people who came to see him, all trying to amuse him, but Harry had a hard time laughing.
His broom was broken and broken in half.
yes, if you fall from a height of fifty feet, you will definitely break.
Harry had thought of this when he had just woken up, but he still felt a little sick when he saw the shards of the broomstick.
Although Wood tells him that it can be repaired, just go to Diagon Alley and spend some gold to make it as good as new.
But he can't go to Diagon Alley at all now...... He couldn't even go to Hogsmeade.
There was another thing that Harry was concerned about.
In the first divination class, Professor Trelawney saw an ominous figure in his divination results, that is, the appearance of a black dog.
And at the time of the game, there happened to be one such black dog in the stands...... Then he fell from a height of fifty feet.
It's just that Harry didn't mention it to anyone, not to Ron or Hermione, because he knew that Ron would panic and Hermione would scoff, he knew these two friends too well.
He wanted a real, pertinent suggestion, because the black dog had already appeared twice, and each time it was in mortal danger.
The last time he was seen was just before school started, when he was almost hit by a knight's bus, and this time he fell off a broomstick.
He shouldn't be wary of this beast in the future?
And the Dementors......
Harry sat in silence on his hospital bed, listening absently to Hermione telling him interesting things about the school.
Kyle's Dragonscale Emblem is in demand again.
"I don't think it's useful, but most people say it works."
Hermione fiddled with the badge on her chest, "Dean Thomas said he didn't feel the Dementors at all, but in fact, he almost cried before those Patronus appeared.
I was there at the time, and I could see it clearly. ”
"But how do you explain Neville's situation?"
Ron was unconvinced: "He wore two, and he was in better shape than when he was on the train, and he could even come to visit Harry." ”
"Maybe he's already familiar with the effects of the Dementors." Hermione said, "It doesn't matter if you wear a badge or not. ”
Ron obviously didn't think so, and said seriously: "Everyone knows that there is no familiar talk about this kind of thing, and it will only grow more and more frightening. ”
Listening to their conversation, it occurred to Harry that Kyle could give him some advice about that elusive black dog.
By the way, he also wanted to ask about how to deal with the Dementors...... It was the Patronus Charm, he remembered what Professor McGonagall had said before.
……
This opportunity came quickly.
When he returned to school on Monday, Harry happened to see Kyle and Cedric walking towards the auditorium.
He hurriedly stepped forward and took the opportunity to ask his doubts.
"Black dog?"
"Yes." "I saw it in the stands before and it fell from fifty feet and I wanted to know if there was a solution."
You probably didn't know it, but I saw it when I was on Magnolia Crescent Street...... If it were a normal dog, there would be no way to chase it all the way from Privet Road to Hogwarts, right? ”
"Well...... this"
Cedric thought for a moment, "Is it possible that you are mistaken, after all, as long as the breed, size and coat color are similar, it is difficult for us to tell if it is the same dog." ”
"This ......"
Harry hesitated, it was dark at the time, he just glanced at it and was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the knight's bus, and it was indeed possible to admit his mistake,
But isn't that a bit too coincidental.
"I don't know the situation on Privet Road,"
At this point, Kyle suddenly said, "But the one you found in the stands should be a good dog...... It's not huge, and the hair is all knotted, as if it's never been bathed. ”
"You've seen it too?" Harry was surprised.
"It was the last time I went to Hogsmeade."
Kyle laughed, "It was lying in front of a shop, and I was playing with it for a while, so I guess it came from there." ”
"What?" Harry still didn't understand, "You mean to say that it was raised in Hogsmeade Village, isn't it unknown?" ”
"If it's a black dog, it's ominous, so what about Hagrid." Kyle said, "Don't forget that the teeth are black, too. ”
It was only after being reminded that Harry realized that this was indeed the case.
Toothtooth is a black retriever raised by Hagrid that can be seen every time he goes to a class to protect magical creatures......
"And ......," Kyle continued, "the dog is very human, and very intelligent, and is very good at rolling, shaking hands, and drilling fire rings.
You can also try it the next time you see it, it's really interesting.
"I highly recommend the backflip." "I'm sure to say that even some of the trained swallowtails don't have the standard of movement. ”
"I think it's a good thing to drill the fire ring." Kyle said, "Making three circles of different sizes makes it feel like you're playing an alternative Quidditch." ”
Listening to the conversation between the two, Harry's disgust and fear of the black dog gradually faded.
If many people have seen it, maybe it is really just an ordinary dog.
And this is another ring of drill fire, and another backflip...... Harry suddenly wondered if the dog was really as smart as Kyle said he was.
Unfortunately, he couldn't go to Hogsmeade, but he could tell Ron and Hermione to find it.
"Oh yes." Kyle reminded, "If you want to see it put on a show, remember to get some food, or the lazy dog won't move." ”
Harry nodded, remarking.
"One more thing." He said, "Can you teach me how to use that Patronus Charm...... The next time I see a Dementor, I don't want to faint again. ”
"Well...... Kyle hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "As much as I'd love to teach you, I probably haven't had that much time lately."
Training three times a week, plus a few other activities, my free time was almost full. ”
Harry was disappointed.
But soon, Kyle continued, "But you can go to Professor Lupin, and he'll do the spell too." ”
"Yes, Professor Lupin!" Harry was pleasantly surprised, "Hermione told me that he told the Dementor on the train to back off. ”
"Thank you, Kyle."
Harry didn't even eat, and hurried towards Professor Lupin's office.
