Retirement from Hogwarts

After finishing the two classes in the afternoon, the four of them hurried to Hagrid's hut outside the Forbidden Forest before dinner.

"Dong dong dong."

"who is it!"

Hearing a knock at the door, Hagrid's alert voice sounded in the house.

"Open the door Hagrid, it's me, Harry."

"Squeak-"

He opened the door to Hagrid's hut through a small crack.After confirming that the person outside was indeed Harry, Hagrid opened the door to a passage wide enough for one person to let the four Jacks in.

"What are you doing Hagrid? Why is it so hot in your room?" Harry asked strangely.

"These two must be Jack and Hermione, right?" Hagrid did not answer Harry's question, but instead asked about the identities of Jack and Hermione.

"Yes, I'm Jack. She's Hermione."

"Thank you for helping Harry at school." Hagrid seemed relieved after hearing their names.He moved his body aside from the fireplace, and a red-hot mithril cauldron appeared in front of them.

"What's in the pot? Hagrid?" Looking at the two dark red lava lizards in the pot, even Jack, who was as calm as Jack, was shocked to ask.

"Shh~ don't be so loud, don't disturb the baby inside the egg."

"Hagrid, where did you get him?" Hermione asked in surprise. "You know, the salamander is a first-level protected animal by the Ministry of Magic. Any buying, selling and trading of salamanders will be punished with first-degree murder."

"Salomanthus? What is that? The mythical lava lizard?"

"Harry, you really should read more books." Hermione lectured Harry dissatisfied. "Although among Muggles, this name refers to all lava lizards. But to wizards, it only refers to one kind of creature, and that is the elemental dragon with the attribute of fire."

"Click click click"

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the pot. The dark red liquid inside began to turn bright white. A large number of bubbles continued to surge in the pot, and the potion in the pot began to boil.The two lava lizards that were swimming leisurely in the pot seemed to be frightened. They flew out of the pot and fled Hagrid's hut as if they were crazy.

"What's going on? Hagrid?" Harry asked in surprise as he looked at the charred marks left by the lava lizard on the floor of the room.

"I don't know either, Harry." Hagrid shook his head blankly. "You know, this is also the first time I've seen a Salamander snake born."

"I think he might be coming out," Jack said. "You'd better take him off your stove."

"Ah, ah. Yes. The book does say that it is best to remove the salamander from the fire when it hatches." Hagrid looked like he suddenly understood.Then, he quickly took the pot off the fireplace and placed it on the table.

"Chi, bang bang"

With a loud noise, the tabletop made of a whole log was instantly burned through by the already red and shiny pot, igniting it.

"oops."

As Neville screamed, he jumped up holding his hands.A bright blistering bubble appeared on his right hand that had been resting on the table just now.

"Neville are you okay?"

"Suck... I'm fine. You guys put out the fire quickly." Neville said to Harry in a tearful tone.

"Hermione, use the freezing spell. Otherwise this house will definitely burn down."

After a while, several people in the room were busy.Finally the fire on the table was put out.

"Jack, your magic is really exaggerated." Looking at the room covered with a thick layer of ice, Hagrid couldn't help but sigh.

"I'm sorry, Hagrid. I was injured a while ago and I haven't been able to control the strength of my shots lately." Jack explained sheepishly. "It looks like you need to tidy up your house from now on."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. If you don't take action, then my troubles will not just be as simple as cleaning up the house..."

Before Hagrid could finish speaking, the table in the center of the room that had turned into charcoal burst into flames again.A large amount of water vapor was evaporated from the ice in the room.The whole house quickly changed back to its original state under the scorching flames.Then, the entire flame shrank, and a translucent dark red fire dragon appeared in front of them.

"Acridine"

The little dragon let out a cute cry.

"It's beautiful, isn't it?" Hagrid murmured.He stretched out a hand and touched Xiaolong's head.

Xiaolong flew to the side in dissatisfaction and sprayed a string of white sparks at him angrily.

"Oh my god, look, it knows its mother!" said Hagrid.

"I think Hagrid has gone crazy." Jack whispered to the other three people.

"Hagrid," said Hermione, "how fast does a salamander grow?"

"How fast? They don't grow fast at all. In a place like Hogwarts, they can only grow one centimeter a year..." Halfway through Hagrid's words, his face suddenly turned pale - he suddenly He jumped up and took down his hunting bow from the wall.He shot a netted arrow out the window.

"Ouch."

A scream came in from the window.Hagrid strode out.After a while, a man covered by a net bag was lifted in by Hagrid.

"Malfoy!" Harry screamed when he saw the captured man.

"You're done, you idiot, you're all done," Malfoy yelled.

"Roar!" The little dragon, who was sleeping on Hermione's head after Hagrid left, was woken up by Malfoy who was yelling, and he yelled a warning to Malfoy.

"My father is the school director, and I want to tell him that you are secretly breeding fire dragons in the school. And it is also a salamander. Just wait until you go to Azkaban!" Malfoy ignored the dragon's warning and shouted. "I believe dementors must be... Oops"

Before Malfoy could finish speaking, a fist-sized fireball was thrown into his face by the dragon.After a small explosion, an African version of Malfoy was born.

"Hagrid, could you please take Xiaolong out for a while? Let's talk to the distinguished Mr. Malfoy. If Xiaolong stays here, I'm afraid it will be difficult for our Mr. Malfoy to see his great school director father again. "Yes." Jack said while gesturing that there were several people outside. After confirming from Hagrid that Malfoy was alone before, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

"No problem, I will take good care of this little guy." After saying that, he took Malfoy out of the net bag like a chicken and pressed it hard into the chair next to him.After Jack fixed Malfoy to the chair with a magic rope, he took the dragon from Hermione's hand, turned around and walked out.
