Hogwarts: Who hasn't collected a Horcrux?

Chapter 30



William had no classes on Friday afternoon, so when he heard that Harry was going to visit Hagrid, he asked,"Harry, can I come with you?""

"Of course, I think Hagrid will welcome you, too."

Harry was in a bad mood because Snape had been harassing him for two classes in the morning, and Gryffindor even lost two points because of him.

But when he thought about going to Hagrid for tea, his mood immediately improved a lot.

In addition, with his two friends William and Ron accompanying him, Harry had long forgotten his bad mood in the morning.

At about two fifty, they left the castle and walked across the lawn towards Hagrid's hut.

Hagrid lived in a small wooden house on the edge of the Forbidden Forest. There was a crossbow and a pair of rubber overshoes in front of the door.

The reason why William came with Harry was because Hagrid and Harry were closer.

And as Harry's friend, it was easier for him to get along with Hagrid.

If William came to contact Hagrid himself, I'm afraid it would take some effort to get to know him.

He doesn't have so much thought and time.

The three of them came to Hagrid's hut, and when Harry went up to knock on the door, they heard a nervous struggle and a few low dog barks from inside.

Then came Hagrid's voice:"Back off, Fang, back off."

Hagrid opened the door a crack, revealing his large bearded face.

"Wait, stand back, Fang."

Hagrid let the three of them in, desperately grabbing the collar of a huge black hound.

There was only one room in the cabin, with hams and pheasants hanging from the ceiling, and a copper kettle boiling water in the brazier.

There was also a big bed in the corner, with a quilt made of rags.

Although Hagrid was guarding the Forbidden Forest, his life was still very simple, because he was a person who loved magical animals and didn't want to hurt them.

"You're welcome."

Hagrid said, letting Fang go.

Fang immediately jumped towards Ron and licked his ears enthusiastically.

It's true that the owner is like the creature. Fang is obviously like Hagrid, with a ferocious appearance, but very gentle.

"This is William and Ron." Harry said to Hagrid.

Hagrid was busy pouring boiling water into a large teapot and putting rock biscuits on a plate.

William also took the initiative to say hello:"Hello, Hagrid, I hope I didn't disturb you by coming here."

""William, hello, welcome." Hagrid said to William with a smile, looking really enthusiastic.

Then he looked at Ron again, glanced at Ron's freckled face carefully, and said affirmatively:"Another little brother from the Weasley family, right?"

"I have spent almost half of my life's energy to drive the twin brothers out of the Forbidden Forest."

Hearing this, Ron smiled awkwardly, after all, Fred and the others were indeed his brothers.

Hagrid's rock cake lived up to its reputation, and it was indeed as good as rocks, almost knocking out their teeth.

William liked it very much, and thought that the rock cake was quite chewy. After all, his teeth were much stronger than Harry and the others.

Harry and Ron pretended to like eating very much, while telling Hagrid about the scenes of the classes in the past few days.

This reminded William of a joke, if you only talk while eating, then the food must be not delicious.

If the food is delicious, who would care about talking.

Hagrid called Filch"that old glutton", it seems that everyone hates this guy

"As for the cat, Mrs. Norris, I will introduce her to my Yaya one day."

"Did you know that every time I go to school, it follows me everywhere? I can't get rid of it. It must be Filch who makes it do that."

Hagrid said angrily.

"Maybe it likes you." William disagreed. After all, Hagrid was quite liked by animals, and Mrs. Norris was also an animal.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Hagrid retorted

"It looks at me like a thief, how could it like me? Filch must have sent it to spy on me. That old bastard is so despicable."

After hearing what Hagrid said, William knew that he was overthinking it, so he nodded and said,"Okay."

Harry talked about what happened in Snape's class again, feeling that he was being targeted.

Hagrid said,"Harry, don't worry, Snape probably didn't target you, because he hardly ever liked any student."

Harry didn't give up and said,"But he really seems to hate me"

"Nonsense! Why would he hate you?"

Although Hagrid said this, even William could see the guilt when he said this, not to mention Harry himself.

Hagrid was really not good at lying. He couldn't even look Harry in the eyes. The lie was not professional at all.

Maybe Hagrid also felt that his lying was not very professional, so he quickly changed the subject and asked Ron,"How is your brother Charlie?"

"I like him very much. He is very kind to animals."

"Charlie is studying dragons in Romania, and his mother told him that he likes this job very much."Ron shrugged.

Since they were talking about animals, William also became interested and asked,"Hagrid, do you like studying magical animals too?"

Hearing William's question, Hagrid immediately said excitedly,"Oh, yes, that's right, I like magical animals very much."

"I also have a three-headed dog named Fluffy, but Professor Dumbledore has borrowed him to guard... Oh, I can't say any more."

Hagrid obviously realized that he had said something wrong and quickly covered his mouth.

William naturally knew what the three-headed dog Fluffy was guarding, so he didn't ask more questions. Instead, he talked to Hagrid about other magical animals.

When the two were chatting excitedly, Harry found a small piece of paper under the tea warmer. It was a report cut from the Daily Prophet. The latest report on the illegal break-in at Gringotts The investigation into the illegal break-in at Gringotts on July 31 is still ongoing. It is generally believed that this was done by an unknown dark wizard.

The goblins of Gringotts reiterated today that nothing was stolen. The underground vault that was searched by the intruder had actually been emptied earlier that day.

A spokesman for the Gringotts goblin said this afternoon: There is no comment on what is stored in the vault, so please do not interfere in this matter.

After reading the report, Harry remembered that that day was the day they went to Gringotts, so he said:

"Hagrid! The day the break-in at Gringotts happened was my birthday, and it's very possible that we were there when it happened!"

Hagrid was discussing magical creatures with William, and suddenly heard what Harry said, and he stammered a few words.

As expected, Hagrid didn't dare to look Harry in the eye this time. He snorted and handed Harry another rock cake to hide his guilt.

Harry read the report again.

The vault that had been searched by the intruder had actually been emptied earlier that day.

If taking away the dirty little bag meant that it had been emptied, then Hagrid had already emptied vault No. 713.

Could that dirty little bag be what the intruder was looking for?

Harry thought as he watched.

Hagrid almost leaked the secret several times in a row, and he didn't dare to keep William anymore.

He filled William and the other two's pockets with rock biscuits and hurriedly sent them back to the castle, as if he was afraid that they would not leave. William did not know whether to laugh or cry, Ron looked indifferent, but Harry was full of worries and frowned.

Harry felt that after having afternoon tea with Hagrid, he had to think about more questions than he had thought about in class in the past few days. Did

Hagrid get the small package in time? Where is the small package now?

Did Hagrid know something about Snape but was unwilling to tell him?

Harry pondered, but had no clue.

William was also thinking, Hagrid's rock biscuits are very famous, I wonder if they can be used as collections?
