Harry Potter: The Party of the Orient at Hogwarts

"I think you should look at this!" Hermione pushed Ron's wizard chess aside, and then spread the book in her hand and slapped it on the long table in front of them.

"What's this?" Harry looked up at Hermione, doubtful in his green eyes.

Hermione patted the open page of the book: "I actually overlooked this, about Nicole Flamel, I read this while killing time..."

"Merlin's socks, look at this to pass the time!" Ron exclaimed as he looked at the ridiculously thick book under Hermione's hand, and successfully got Hermione's eyes.

Hermione pointed to the text in the book and told them both about Nicole Flamel and the Philosopher's Stone in detail.

"I think we should ask Hagrid again." Harry suggested to them, staring at the book in front of him, "Let's go to Hagrid tonight."

Seeing that none of them objected, Harry said to Jiang Li: "At eight o'clock in the evening, let's meet at the entrance of the auditorium and go find Hagrid together!"

Jiang Li agreed, and now she has completely forgotten who Potions School is.

Hufflepuff's afternoon class was Defense Against the Dark Arts. To be honest, Professor Quirrell taught for a semester, but Jiang Li felt that he was not useful at all.

After lunch and a brief rest, Jiang Li and the girls in the dormitory went to the classroom of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

She clearly felt that the garlic smell on Professor Quirrell's body was stronger, emanating from his turban that wrapped his head, stimulating the sense of smell of everyone in the classroom.

This disgusting smell almost made Jiang Li spit out his lunch.

Although Professor Quirrell said that garlic was used to deal with vampires, Jiang Li looked at the smelly scarf and remembered the rugged face she saw at that time. She seriously suspected that the brother in the back of Professor Quirrell had a habit of eating garlic.

Professor Quirrell's boring and useless Defense Against the Dark Arts class lasted all afternoon. Seeing him shrinking, Jiang Li couldn't understand why Dumbledore asked him to be the teacher of Defense Against the Dark Arts. He even suspected that if he encountered a dark wizard, this timid professor would be the first to run away. Last time, a clumsy troll could scare him unconscious.

"I hope everyone will get good grades in the final exam of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class!" Before the get out of class ended, Professor Quirrell said his blessings to the students.

When he passed Jiang Li's seat, Jiang Li felt an ominous and extremely uncomfortable force emanating from Professor Quirrell.

"He won't become a vampire after being bitten by a vampire." Jiang Li muttered to himself as he watched Professor Quirrell leaving with his book in his arms.

"What are you talking about?" Hannah asked her curiously when she heard her murmur, but couldn't understand what she was saying.

"I said that Professor Quirrell's smell is getting more and more suffocating."

Hannah nodded in agreement: "When he walked past me just now, I couldn't breathe. I've never seen a vampire before. I suspect he just likes to eat garlic and uses vampires as an excuse."

Even Susan and Eleanor nodded in agreement with Hannah's words. It seemed that everyone disliked Professor Quirrell.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Jiang Li came to the entrance of the auditorium as agreed, and the Gryffindor trio was already waiting for her there.

The final exam was approaching, and most of the Hogwarts students were reviewing and preparing for the upcoming final exam in the dormitory, and there were hardly any people in the castle.

They ran all the way to Hagrid's hut, and Harry knocked hard on the wooden door of the hut.

"Hagrid!"

"Sorry, I don't mean to offend, but I can't play with you today." Hagrid interrupted what Harry was about to say, and closed the wooden door with a sorry expression on his face.

"We know about the Philosopher's Stone!" Harry said to him quickly when he saw that he was going to close the door.

Hagrid opened the door again when he heard him say that, and let them into his hut helplessly.

"We think Snape is trying to steal him." Harry told Hagrid what he thought as he walked inside.

"Snape? You don't still doubt him, do you?" Hagrid was fiddling with an iron pot that was roasting on the fireplace.

"I don't think it's him, but Harry thinks that Snape wants to steal the Sorcerer's Stone." Jiang Li shook his head helplessly at Hagrid.

Harry sat down on the small sofa, and said stubbornly: "No, Hagrid, I know that Snape wants to get the Philosopher's Stone, but I don't know what his purpose is."

Jiang Li also sat down on the small sofa next to him, feeling very helpless about Harry's stubbornness, after deducing all the details, it was impossible for Snape to be the suspect.

Standing among them, Hagrid seemed helpless and explained to Harry: "Snape is one of the teachers who protect the Sorcerer's Stone, and he won't steal it."

"What?" Harry and Ron looked at each other in disbelief, obviously in disbelief.

Hermione and Jiang Li glanced at each other as a matter of course. They had previously ruled out Snape's suspicion through reasoning, but Harry still insisted on his own ideas, and even Ron was successfully led into the pit by him.

"That's right, let's go, I'm a bit busy today." Having finished his speech, Hagrid began to drive them away.

Jiang Li felt that Hagrid was abnormal today. Usually when they came to play with him in Hagrid's hut, he was very enthusiastic and happy, but today he was uncharacteristically trying to drive them away. He must be hiding something. She planned to ask Haigrid Hermione's question interrupted what she was about to say when she was on grid.

"Wait, one of the teachers? Is there something else protecting it? Spells and magic?" Hermione seemed to notice something.

"By the way, it's a waste of time for me to say, no one can pass Lu Wei's level, and no one knows the way, except me and Dumbledore." Hagrid said confidently, and showed annoyance after a while Emoji, "I shouldn't have told you guys, I shouldn't have talked too much."

The iron pot on the fireplace made strange noises, and they all looked at the iron pot at the same time.

Hagrid took out a scalding black egg from the iron pan, and carefully placed it on the table.

"What's that?" Harry looked at the eggs on the table and asked curiously.

"That's, that's..." Hagrid hesitated, as if unwilling to say what it was.

"I know what that is, but Hagrid, how did you get it?" Ron probably knew what was on the table, and asked Hagrid.

"I won it from a stranger in the bar." Hagrid frowned. "The man seemed eager to give it away, to be honest."

Jiang Li looked at the over-baked egg on the table, and guessed in his heart that it might be the egg of a certain creature. Hagrid probably baked it for dinner.

"Is this your dinner? Hagrid." Jiang Li pointed to the eggs on the table.

"Oh, no, honey, you can't eat this." Hagrid waved his hands at her with a frightened expression, as if he was afraid that she would eat the egg.

The eggs on the table suddenly shook violently twice, which startled the four children, and stared at the table cautiously.

The egg shook more and more violently, the shell shattered and flew out, and a small dark green dragon broke out of the shell.

"Oh, this is...a dragon?" Hermione looked at the slightly slimy little dragon that had just hatched on the table in surprise.

"This is no ordinary dragon." Ron exclaimed. "This is a Norwegian spinosaur. My brother Charlie studies them in Romania."

"Oh, don't you think it's beautiful?" Hagrid looked at Xiaolong with eyes full of love, "Look, mom is here."

After finishing speaking, Hagrid stretched out his finger and stroked the little dragon's neck: "Hello, Norbert." Noble is the name Hagrid gave the little dragon.

Jiang Li looked at Hagrid's doting on Xiaolong, and thought, could this be the legendary male mother?

Hagrid continued to tease Norbert, and little Norbert shook his little head and shot a ball of fire at Hagrid, setting Hagrid's big shaggy beard on fire.

Hagrid hastily stretched out his hand and patted his beard to complain to the children: "Of course, it's still a little uneducated."

Jiang Li laughed out loud when he heard Hagrid complaining about little Norbert: "Even though Norbert lacks education, Hagrid's mother will still love him."

"Of course." Hagrid shook his head, frowning as he looked out the window, "Who is that?"
