Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Hagrid's hut was still the same as before, filled with all kinds of messy things. After the three Harrys entered, they sat at the table as before. Although Hagrid still looked angry, he still gave them

One person poured a cup of tea and placed a plate of rock biscuits on the table.

If you ignore his hands that want to mash the potatoes directly, there is actually no difference from before.

"We really want to take your class." Hermione took a sip of tea and whispered.

"snort!"

"Really! It's just that our class schedule can't be arranged."

"Yes, everyone is very busy." Hagrid replied casually, still ravaging the potatoes in his hand.

Hermione quietly looked at Harry and Ron, but only saw two faces filled with embarrassment. She glared at these two unsatisfied guys, and was about to speak again when she heard a strange sound coming from the corner.

sound.

The three of them poked their heads around following the sound, but they were all shocked. The contents of the iron bucket were more disgusting than slugs. They were white and sticky, squirming and rolled into a ball, and the inner wall of the bucket was still covered with slugs.

green slime.

At first glance, it looks a bit like a runny nose when you have a cold.

"What is this?" Harry asked, suppressing the urge to spit it out.

"Giant grubs." Hagrid put down the potatoes in his hand and walked over to take away the bucket of stomach-turning things. "I want to feed Aragog with them."

"Aragog?" The three of them looked at each other in confusion, counting down the pet names they had heard from Hagrid over the years, but there was no such thing as Aragog.

"Oh, I forgot, none of you have seen it, and I haven't told you about it," Hagrid said. "It was a pet I had when I was still in school at Hogwarts. Later, I put it away because of some things.

In the Forbidden Forest.”

"Hagrid..." Hermione had a bad feeling and asked tentatively, "What is Aragog? I mean what kind of magical animal does it belong to?"

"Eight-eyed Spider." Hagrid said, "A very cute little guy..."

Before he finished speaking, Hagrid burst into tears and couldn't stop the tears from flowing out.

"What...what's wrong, Hagrid?" Hermione asked softly.

"It... it's going to die..." Hagrid sobbed and wiped away his tears, but there was no sign of loss at all, "It has been sick for a summer and has never recovered... I don't know, if it... it

What should I do if I die... We have been together for so many years..."

Hermione patted Hagrid's back gently and listened to him talk about Aragog. Although Hagrid was crying and intermittently when he spoke, he still knew what Aragog was like.

of.

A huge eight-eyed spider has multiplied a large tribe in the Forbidden Forest. It can talk and is even more unpopular with centaurs than Grawp.

"Hagrid, what can we do?" Hermione asked softly, ignoring Ron who shook his head and waved at her.

"No more, Hermione." Hagrid took out a big handkerchief from his pocket and blew his nose, then folded it and put it back in his pocket. "It's time is coming, and its children are acting very strange now.

, a bit out of control..."

"I think it's unsafe for anyone except me to approach their territory now..." Hagrid wiped away his tears again, sniffed, and raised his head, "But I still want to thank you.

,Hermione, this is so important to me..."

"No...it's nothing, we didn't help at all..." Hermione's expression was a little unnatural, and she finally remembered what kind of creature the eight-eyed spider was.

In fact, I should have thought of it a long time ago. According to Hagrid's aesthetics, it cannot be a docile and normal thing.

The atmosphere became slightly more relaxed, and Hagrid completely forgot about the fact that Harry and the others did not choose his class. After washing his face, he refilled the tea for the three of them and said, "Actually,

I already knew that it would be difficult for you to choose my class again. You are so busy, even if you use the time turner..."

"At the end of last term at the Ministry of Magic, all the time-turners were gone," Hermione said.

"I know, it's just... I'm just worried about Aragog..." Hagrid scratched his head and sat down at the table. He picked up a piece of rock cake and easily bit off a large piece, then started chewing it.

, "But life is not always full of bad news..."

"Is there any good news?" Harry immediately became energetic after hearing this and put down the rock biscuit in his hand, "Hagrid, tell me quickly!"

"This...actually, I shouldn't tell you..." Hagrid said hesitantly, "You have to promise not to spread the word or do anything stupid, and just stay in school...

…”

"We know." Harry said impatiently, "Hagrid, we promise not to tell anyone else or do anything stupid, so tell us quickly!"

Hagrid looked at the excited Harry, as well as Hermione and Ron who were nodding their little heads crazily next to them. He hesitated for a long time before finally relaxing.

"Well, let me tell you...remember Norbert? He's back!"

"Norbert!" The three Harrys were shocked. Of course they remembered Norbert. It was the first "Haigli" pet they saw with their own eyes. It also made Ron's hand swollen for a long time.

"Yes, Norbert, but Charlie changed it into Norberta." Hagrid said happily, "I saw it, it has grown up and is a big girl, very beautiful! A little shy, but still

Remember its 'mom'..."

The three of them looked at each other. They didn't think that a fire dragon would remember Hagrid after so many years. But considering Hagrid's physique, it was obvious that this was another "Hagrid" shyness.

"But, I remember, isn't it in Romania? How could it come back? Could it be... that it's Dumbledore..."

Before Harry could finish his words, Hagrid interrupted him. He looked at Harry seriously and said, "We shouldn't talk about these things here..."

"It's okay, this is Hogwarts!" Ron said with a nonchalant look on his face.

"I know, but it's always right to be careful." Hagrid was still serious, "Didn't the previous lessons teach you what it means to be careful?"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this..." Harry rolled his eyes and said with a regretful look, "But you have to tell us where it is. In fact, we also want to see it again...right?

,Hermione, Ron?”

"Ah...ah, yes, that's right!" Ron was still a little hesitant, but he immediately reacted under Harry's eyes.

"Yes, Hagrid, we also want to see Norbert again... No, it's Norbert." Hermione agreed.

Hagrid hesitated again, looking a little embarrassed.

"It's...it's not that I won't let you see Norbert, it's just...it's very difficult, you know..." Hagrid hesitated, "and it's not possible now, it has to be given to Dumbledore

Do me a favor..."

"What are you busy with?" Harry's eyes lit up and he asked immediately.

"Busy?" Hagrid was taken aback for a moment, but then he realized that he had spilled the beans again. A bit of anger suddenly appeared on his face, and he stood up directly, pushing the three of them gently with both hands.

"Cunning little devil! Trying to trick me again!"

"Go, go! Don't expect to hear anything from me today!"
