Retirement from Hogwarts

"Aren't you dead yet? It's so... great." Looking at Hagrid getting up from the ground, Jack almost let it slip.

"Yeah, I almost thought I was going to die just now." Hagrid obviously didn't hear what Jack originally wanted to say, and agreed with a happy face.After finishing his appearance with the new wand he bought after being cleared last year, Hagrid patted Jack on the shoulder and asked: "Thanks to your plan, we were able to catch her. What should we do next? Just take them out Just drag it back like this?"

"We need a truck." Jack grinned as Hagrid photographed him. "If you just drag them back, the gryphon will definitely be disfigured even if it doesn't die. I don't think Buckbeak will still like her by then."

"That's easy to say." Hagrid heard Jack's request and beat his chest loudly. "I'm going to get one right now."

"Hagrid definitely heard what you were about to say just now." Hermione said to Jack with a smile like a little fox that had stolen a chicken when Hagrid disappeared into the jungle again.

"This guy... don't fall into my hands next time." Jack, who had not yet realized why Hagrid patted his shoulder so hard, squeezed out this sentence through gritted teeth after listening to Hermione's words.

This time, I don’t know if it was because they were prepared in advance, but it didn’t take long before Hagrid pulled a cart floating in the air and came to them.After loading the car, Hagrid quickly took them back to his cabin.

"The next problem is the potion." After helping Hagrid put the storm griffin into the 'lair' that the three of them had built together, Jackson no longer needed to provide the magic power needed to manifest the sea magic tool. He said after taking a breath.

"Hagrid, can you write us a note?" Hermione, who was struggling with how to borrow "Powerful Potion" that she had long wanted to read, asked after Hagrid closed the cage door.

"There's nothing I can do about that book." Hagrid shook his big head in distress. "The only teachers who have the authority to ask Mrs. Pince to borrow any kind of books from the restricted area are Dumbledore and the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. My note can only help you borrow books about magical creatures. If If you can't convince Dumbledore or Professor Lupin, then you can only go to Snape."

"Then we've spent so much effort in vain? Without that book, we wouldn't have been able to get the shrinking potion, and they wouldn't have been able to have children." Hermione said a little discouraged after hearing Hagrid's explanation.

"We don't need to borrow that "Powerful Potion"," Jack said under Hermione's surprised gaze. "That shrinking potion should be used together with the love potion and the unique breeding potion when hippogriffs breed. , and we also need to give her a weakening potion afterwards to ensure that she will not kill her child in her belly. Let the effects of so many potions take effect at the same time in a short period of time without affecting each other. It's impossible for us half-baked apothecaries. We have to go to Snape."

"Go to Snape? Are you sure?" Hermione's eyes widened in disbelief after hearing Jack's suggestion. "It would be great if he doesn't report us for illegal experiments on mixing magical creatures. How could he agree to our request?"

"That's it

, it depends on Hagrid. "Jack smiled evilly and threw the blame to Hagrid again, saying in his mind that you just photographed me, and now go and beg Snape yourself. "The Magical Creatures professor at Hogwarts is responsible for developing new types of magical creatures. authority and obligations.Hagrid, all you need to do is fill out the standard Magical Research Cooperation form and give it to Dumbledore. "

"It's...it's not a good idea to trouble Dumbledore for something like this, isn't it?" Hagrid said hesitantly.

"Buckbeak doesn't have much time, Hagrid. If we go find the pharmacist ourselves, God knows when we will find a Potions Master on the same level as Snape." Jack said helplessly, spreading his hands.

"Well, I'll go find Dumbledore now. Thank you for your help today." As soon as Hagrid heard Jack say that Buckbeak's time was running out, he jumped up and rushed towards the castle.

"Just fool an honest man, be careful when Hagrid knows the truth and continues to slap you on the shoulder." Hermione warned, looking at Jack with a planning expression on his face.

"I didn't lie to him. This is just a new student's speculation about unknown potions." Jack smiled and picked himself up.

Hermione snorted softly after hearing his explanation, obviously not believing the lies of a potion expert who could produce solid invisibility potions in his first year.Just when she was about to continue saying something, Neville hurried over from the direction of the castle, attracting their attention.

Neville stumbled over and almost fell to the ground.After the two people supported him, he gasped and spoke intermittently. "Jack... it's not good. Harry secretly... went to Hogsmeade... and Malfoy found out."

Hermione's face turned pale after hearing Neville's words. She asked in a panic, "What about Harry? Where is he now?"

Neville, who had calmed down after hearing Hermione's question, started to explain in rapid succession: "Harry and I came back through the secret passage, and Senior Sister Qiu went to find someone to block Malfoy. But when we came out of the secret passage At that time, Harry happened to be caught by Snape and almost got caught. If Harry hadn't said that he would explore the way first and let me wait for his signal before going out, I would have been caught by Snape. "

"Did Snape say where he wanted to take Harry?" Jack frowned and asked after hearing Neville's words.

"He seems to be suspicious of the Marauder's Map in Harry's hand. After testing for a long time with no results, he seems to be planning to take him to Professor Lupin." Neville answered immediately after hearing Jack's question.

"Where is Professor Lupin?" Jack couldn't help but feel relieved after hearing the answer, "Then we don't have to worry about it. He and Harry's father are good friends and won't let Harry be in his house." He was being embarrassed right under his nose. But how was Harry discovered?"

"Malfoy said before that Senior Qiu was a nasty yellow-skinned monkey, and then Harry got so angry that he hit that bastard with a snowball under his invisibility cloak. Then for some reason, Harry's invisibility cloak slipped down and hit him His head was exposed." Neville said angrily after hearing Jack's question.

"Yellow-skinned monkey? Humph, very good." Jack snorted after hearing Neville's words and said nothing more.Then he led the two of them towards the castle.
