Retirement from Hogwarts

Chapter 49 Nicoléme’s Trial (1)

In this way, Jack and Hermione slowly walked towards the Black Lake while discussing magic.By the lake, groups of Hogwarts students who had finished their exams were laughing and playing, venting their stress since the exams.Jack took Hermione and chose a shade of tree to sit down.

"This damn exam is finally over." Jack sighed, stretched out his limbs and lay down.

"But in this case we will be separated soon." Hermione said a little unhappy.

"It won't be long. Anyway, I have nothing to do during the summer vacation. Then I will go to London Star to find you." Jack said to Hermione.

"Really?"

"Of course it's true. I have nothing to do this summer except going to Free Cantilever to deal with the company's financial problems. How about I go to London Star to find you then?"

"Don't you need to go home?"

"Home? I guess I don't have such a thing in this world anymore." Jack said a little sadly.

After hearing Jack's words, an indescribable silence spread between the two of them.

Suddenly, Hermione moved Jack's head from the root of the tree to her lap.She gently stroked his forehead and forcibly relaxed his frown.

"Then we are a family from today on. My parents are your parents." Hermione said with a red face.

After hearing Hermione's words, Jack couldn't help but open his eyes wide and stare at her closely.

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that. I just feel sorry for you." Hermione, who was a little flustered when he stared at her, added.

"Hey." Jack cried out in pain.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Hermione, whose face turned red after being stared at by him, pressed his head hard on the grass next to her.

"So you are here!" At this moment, Harry's voice came from far away.

"Harry, you said your scar has been hurting lately?"

"Yeah, I think this must be a sign of something." Harry said distressedly, rubbing his scar. "It's hurt before, but never like this all the time."

"Go and see Madam Pomfrey," Hermione suggested.

"I'm not sick," Harry said. "I took this as a warning. A sign that danger was coming."

"Danger is coming? This is Hogwarts, Harry. What danger can we face here?"

"Maybe it's not us who are in danger, but the Philosopher's Stone." Harry said with a worried look.

"The Philosopher's Stone? How is it possible? You know, even Snape couldn't pass the three-headed dog level. Not to mention the levels of other professors later, you have to know that the defense mechanism deployed by the Magister is not that easy to solve."

"Indeed, Snape can't even get through Luweina. It shouldn't be about the Sorcerer's Stone."

"Wait, what is Fluffy?" Hermione asked.

"Luwei is the name of a three-headed dog. That three-headed dog is Hagrid's pet."

"Pet?!" X3

"Yes, pet. I heard from Hagrid that Lu Wei helped a lot in getting Phoenix."

"Help a lot?"

"I didn't ask specifically, but I thought..." Suddenly, Harry stopped suddenly as if he thought of something.His face turned pale. "We must find Hagrid immediately."

"It's indeed suspicious. It's better to go to Hagrid to confirm." Jack's brows also frowned.

&n

bsp;"Confirm what?" Hermione asked doubtfully as she followed them towards Hagrid's hut.

"Don't you think it's a little strange, Hermione?" Harry said as he hurried down the grassy slope. "What Hagrid wants most is a dragon, and a stranger happens to have a dragon egg in his pocket? How many people walk around with dragon eggs all day long? You know, that's against wizarding law! Don't you think they were lucky to find Hagrid? Why didn't I think of this before? "

"What do you want to do?" Neville asked, but Harry just ran across the field towards the forest without answering his question.

Hagrid was sitting on a chair outside the hut, his trousers rolled up, facing a large bowl, busy shelling pea pods.

"Hello," he said with a smile, "Exams are over? How is Phoenix doing lately?"

"That little guy had a much better life in my elemental world than I did. The final exam at Hogwarts was a nightmare. But the little guy has been missing you a little lately, Hagrid. If you have time, come and take a look. He opened the door for you." Jack said to Hagrid.

"How about I come find you during the holidays? Open the door for me then. Now, would you like a cup of tea?" Hagrid asked expectantly.

"Okay, thank you," Neville said, but Harry interrupted.

"No, we have an emergency. Hagrid, I have something to ask you. Do you remember the night you won Phoenix playing cards? What did the stranger you played cards with look like?" "I don't know. ," Hagrid said nonchalantly, "He refused to take off his cloak." He saw the look of astonishment on the faces of the four children immediately, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise.

"What's so strange about this? The Pig's Head Bar - that's the bar in the village. There are always some weird guys coming there. That guy might be a dragon vendor. I never saw his face clearly. He was wearing a Where’s the hood?”

Harry plopped down next to the bowl of peas.

"What did you say to him, Hagrid? Did you mention Hogwarts?"

"Maybe I mentioned it." Hagrid frowned and tried to remember, "By the way... he asked me what I did, and I told him that I was the gamekeeper here... and he asked a little more about what I was looking after. Which animals... I told him... Then I said that I have always wanted a dragon... Later... I can't remember clearly, he kept buying me wine... Let me think about it... Yes Later, he said he had a dragon egg in his hand. If I wanted it, we could play cards and bet...but he had to find out whether I had the ability to deal with the dragon. He didn't want the dragon to escape by then. Causing trouble... So I told him, I can even manage Lu Wei, and a dragon is nothing..."

"Does he seem to be very interested in Lu Wei?" Xili asked, trying to keep his tone calm.

"Yes - quite interesting - how many three-headed dogs can you meet, even near Hogwarts? So I told him that Fluffy is actually very easy to deal with, as long as you know how to use it It calms down, play some music to it, and it falls asleep immediately——"

A look of horror appeared on Hagrid's face.

"I shouldn't have said that!" he blurted. "Forget what I said! Hey - where are you going?"

Harry, Neville, Jack and Hermione didn't exchange a word all the way and didn't stop until they ran into the hall.Having just entered from the grounds outside, the foyer seemed particularly cold and dark.

We have to go find Dumbledore," Harry said. "Hagrid told a stranger how to subdue Fluffy. The man in the cloak was either Snape or Voldemort - he only had to get Hagrid drunk. It's easy to figure out what he said. "

They looked around as if expecting to see a sign to point them in the direction.They had never been told where Dumbledore lived, nor did they know of anyone who had ever been taken to see the Headmaster.
