Journey to the Wizarding World of Hogwarts
Chapter 243 The Fire Dragon Egg Won from Betting
"Okay Harry, you are just a little anxious." Hermione said, "Although we are about to have a holiday, as long as Dumbledore is in the school, the Philosopher's Stone will not be in danger. In any case, Snape is not in danger at the moment. I don’t know how to pass Lu Wei. He almost had his leg bitten off last time, so he won’t take the risk again for the time being.”
Harry nodded, but he couldn't get rid of a vague feeling that he had forgotten to do something, something very important.
"By the way, Harry." Hermione quietly approached him and asked in a low voice, "Have you asked Hagrid about the origin of the dragon?"
Harry hesitated for a moment and then said, "Hagrid raised that dragon."
"What?!" Hermione's face was full of shock, "Then, how long did he have to keep it! God, if it weren't for the "Fire Dragon Protection Act", he might have been able to keep it by his side."
"It doesn't seem like it lasted long. Hagrid said that fire dragons grow very fast." Harry explained, "The one we saw last time only took half a year to reach its size."
Hermione exclaimed in low voice, "That's really, really amazing!"
Harry thought so too.
"But... fire dragon eggs are prohibited items. How did Hagrid get them?" Hermione looked at Harry in confusion, "Did he go... to steal the eggs?"
Harry laughed dryly, "How, how is that possible? He won it from someone else in a bet."
"Bet?" Hermione raised her voice, and then she secretly glanced around and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that no one was paying attention.
Neville looked admiring, "Hagrid is so lucky!"
"Yes, yes." Harry suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put it into words.
I only heard Ron say, "I also want to do something like this, bet with someone in the tavern, and win a fire dragon egg! That would be so dreamy!"
Harry was about to say, you're not that lucky, when he felt like he finally thought of that.
That one thing that always made him feel vaguely wrong!
coincide! What a coincidence!
Hagrid happened to go to the tavern and met a man with a dragon egg. The man happened to meet Hagrid, who loved fire dragons. Hagrid also happened to win the other man's dragon egg in a bet!
"Oh my god, why didn't I think of this before!" He slapped his head in annoyance, "No, I'm going to find Hagrid!"
With that said, he ran away in a hurry.
As soon as Hermione thought about it, she understood what Harry was worried about, and she became at a loss. "Wait, wait a minute, Harry! I'm going too!"
Seeing both of them leaving, Neville stood up in confusion and wanted to follow them.
"Hey, Neville." Ron pressed his shoulder, "You'd better not get involved in this kind of thing."
Neville said nagging, "But, but..."
"Anyway, you will say anything when you are scared." Ron looked at him unkindly, "Or is this your plan?"
"No!" Neville roared angrily, "I won't reveal my friend's secrets!"
"Really?" Ron said nonchalantly, "Then, do you know about the fire dragon? Neither Harry nor Hermione told you, right?"
Neville was discouraged. Indeed, neither Harry nor Hermione had said anything about the fire dragon. If they were not here today, they would definitely hide it.
"Do you know why they mentioned the fire dragon thing today?" Ron raised his eyebrows and looked at Neville. Speak up. Do you understand what I mean?"
Neville pursed his lips and said helplessly, "Yeah."
Ron coughed, suppressed the joy in his heart, and said to Neville, "Okay, man, you should go about your own business."
Neville left in frustration, and Ron triumphantly caught up with Harry and Hermione.
Hagrid was squatting outside the hut in a good mood, his big shoes were full of mud, his trouser legs were rolled up to his knees, and he was busy shelling pea pods.
A large bowl was placed in front of him, and he put the peeled peas in the bowl.
"Good afternoon!" He said with a smile, "The exam is over? Do you want to have afternoon tea? I prepared rock cake!"
Harry waved his hand and asked hesitantly, "No, Hagrid, I have something to ask you. Do you remember how you won the fire dragon? What does the stranger you bet with look like?"
"I don't know," Hagrid said nonchalantly. "He didn't take off his cloak."
"You didn't take off your cloak?" Hermione was stunned, "Does that mean you don't know him?"
Harry was also shocked, "You, you never doubted him?"
Hearing their questions, Hagrid also looked surprised, "Is this weird? There are always weird guys coming to the Pig's Head Bar. No one knows each other, and occasionally someone will buy everyone a drink. It's a very nice place. .”
Hagrid was cheerful, as if he had remembered something, "It's a pity that there are very few free drinks in recent years." He said with a look of regret.
"Hagrid, we want to know the person who gave you the fire dragon egg! He's not here to hear what you said about drinking." Ron interrupted his recollection.
Hagrid looked at him and frowned, "Why do you even know about the fire dragon? Harry, please help me keep this secret. I don't want to go to Azkaban again..."
Ron's eyes widened, "Have you ever been to Azkaban? Is it really very dangerous there?"
Hagrid looked horrified, "Don't mention that place! I don't want to remember it at all!"
Ron approached him reluctantly, "Tell me about it, Hagrid, I'm also very interested in it!"
Harry pulled his robe and said displeasedly, "Ron, we are here to ask Hagrid about the fire dragon. If you are interested in other things, you can ask after we leave."
Ron opened his mouth and realized that Harry was indeed angry, then he stopped.
However, he made up his mind to find out what was so scary about Azkaban when he got the chance in the future! He has been curious for a long time!
Because he was afraid that Ron and the others would mention Azkaban again, Hagrid quickly answered Harry's question, "That guy probably rarely went to bars before. If we want to find a buyer in a bar, we usually look for several interested parties." Make an appointment with someone, buy them a drink, and then everyone can start discussing the price.”
"The guy came to me directly and asked me what I did. I told him that I was a gamekeeper at Hogwarts, taking care of some animals..." Hagrid frowned and tried to remember, "Then he asked me something more... I told him that I especially wanted to raise a fire dragon..."
The corners of Hermione's mouth twitched, and she no longer knew what to say. Hagrid, didn't you notice such an obvious thing?
The other party came specifically to find you!
Harry covered his face, feeling that Hagrid was unreliable, but he still looked at him expectantly.
You shouldn't tell the other party Lu Wei's weaknesses, right?
Ron listened with great interest, "Then what? Then he gave the fire dragon to you?"
