The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 379: The Giant's Whereabouts (Part 1)

"My mother? She died." Hagrid muttered, his voice gradually lowered: "It was many years ago. I only learned about it from a few giants around this time last year."

While sobbing, he wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, and big drops of tears fell on his underpants... Although it was in his mouth just now, he said he didn't care about his mother.

"I'm sorry!" Jon actually guessed this too... If his mother hadn't passed away, Hagrid wouldn't have brought his "short" younger brother Grop, who was often abused by the tribe, a year ago Come to Hogwarts.

"It's all right." Hagrid took out a dirty handkerchief from his pocket, and blew his nose hard; the sound was almost thunderous, startling Jon.

"Then, Professor Hagrid...do you know the whereabouts of the other giants?" Jon, who didn't give up after Hagrid calmed down, continued to ask: "If I remember correctly, you have crossed paths with them before. ?”

Hagrid thought for a moment, then replied: "Any other giants... Almost a year ago, that is, last September, I was near Dijon (a city in central and eastern France, the capital of the Burgundy region and the provincial capital of Côte d'Or)." I've seen them; I was with Olim, we tried to get close to them, tried to win their trust..."

"And after that..." According to the original book, Jon knew very well that at that time, Hagrid and Mrs. Maxime took Dumbledore's gift to find the giants, hoping that the giants could stand on the sidelines in the Second Wizarding War. On their side; although they achieved certain results at first, due to the internal riots of the giants, they finally failed... The giants finally fell to Voldemort's side completely.

Listening patiently to Hagrid's brief story, Jon asked impatiently: "Then what about those giants...they are still near Dijon, aren't they?"

"I don't think it should be..." Hagrid shook his head: "At the end of June this year, when Professor Dumbledore reached a settlement with the Ministry of Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour, the Director of Law Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, brought a A group of Aurors went there...but they didn't find the target in the end. Except for the ruins, the giants left their previous habitat a few months ago, and the mysterious man probably prepared a new residence for them! "

Jon couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"Okay, thank you..." He smiled weakly, and finally asked: "Is there no more information about the giant?"

"Yes, I've never heard of it again." Hagrid nodded.

Jon couldn't help sighing—the extent of Europe is so vast, the giants could be hiding anywhere: in Madrid, in Minsk, maybe even in Greenland...

Wanting to find them is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack; unless they take the initiative to expose themselves.

But Voldemort is in a disadvantaged situation now, it is impossible to foolishly send his giant allies out to die... Even in the original book, the giants did not reappear to everyone until a year later, after Voldemort completely controlled the Ministry of Magic In the field of vision, several horrific Muggle massacres were made.

"By the way, Patrick, why are you so desperate to find the giant?" Hagrid asked curiously.

The more he said, his face became more and more strange, and his voice trembled: "Could it be...you too..."

One of his hands was already on Jon's shoulder—

Only then did Jon come to his senses, and quickly broke free from Hagrid's "claw": "Professor Hagrid, you are overthinking... I am so thin, how could I be a half-blood giant... Think about it carefully..."

While yelling, Jon fled out of Hagrid's hut in a panic.

On the other side of the hut, Hagrid was still shouting: "Really, don't care about other people's opinions, just admit your identity bravely..."

...

Fortunately, Rubeus Hagrid did not continue to catch up.

Jon walked down the path on the edge of the Forbidden Forest with a look of disappointment... After finally seeing some hope on the line of the giant, it was cut off immediately afterwards; this is simply cruel.

A big bright red bird flew over lightly and came to Jon's side.

Although she didn't sing, the warm aura emanating from her body made people feel very comfortable.

"Thank you, Fox!" Jon smiled reluctantly.

Fox brought herself back to Hogwarts from Beauxbatons, that's where she was sent... and when she went to find Hagrid in the hut, she seemed to be looking for edible food at the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

"Is Professor Dumbledore at school?" Jon asked quietly.

It's been a long time since I saw Principal Albus Dumbledore, and Jon felt that it was necessary for him to pay a visit and extend his sincere regards... Besides, maybe he knew more about giants than Hagrid.

Fenghuang shook his head, indicating that the white-haired elder was not in the school at this time.

No wonder, now that the entire wizarding world has entered a state of emergency in order to fight against Voldemort and the Death Eaters, Dumbledore will indeed be busy... It is impossible to stay in his office all the time as before.

While Jon was considering whether to go to the headmaster's office and meet those old friends on the wall——

Fox suddenly became like an angry rooster, with all the hair on his body standing on end...

...

Jon's face immediately became serious, obviously he understood that Fox was warning him.

"Disillusionment!"

Without hesitation, he used the Illusion Curse, and one person and one phoenix disappeared completely.

In the shadows, Jon carefully moved his position and looked around; at the same time, his hand rested lightly on Fox's tail feathers. If there was anything wrong around him, Fox could take him out of here... Except for the Phoenix, there is no big deal. Multiple creatures can Apparate at Hogwarts.

A burst of furtive footsteps came from the greenhouse.

It was a bald old man as fat as a big elephant, with protruding eyes and a thick silver beard like a walrus... He was also wearing a nightgown and holding a few stick-like things in his hand.

Looking around, he walked past where Jon had stood and sneaked into the Forbidden Forest.

He didn't notice the person and bird hiding here.

It was Professor Horace Slughorn!

After the other party completely disappeared from sight, Jon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief... For a moment, he thought it was the Death Eaters who had invaded the campus.

"Let's go, let's go to the castle!" Jon suggested to Fox in a low voice.

Phoenix pouted at him, pointing in the air.

An owl was hovering in mid-air above Jon's head, seemingly trying to find something, but finding nothing.
