Chapter 63: Hager
"What's its name?" Albert put the sandwich in his hand into his mouth and finished eating, stretched out his hands and gently rubbed the hound's head.
"Yaya." Hagrid replied subconsciously.
"Ya Ya? It feels like this big dog's aura is gone all at once, how about being called Spike?" Albert casually gave Ya Ya a new name.
"I think it's pretty good." Hagrid stopped cleaning the mink, shook his head and rejected Albert's kindness.
"My name is Albert Anderson, are you also a professor at Hogwarts?" Albert asked knowingly.
"No, I am the guard of the hunting ground." Hagrid continued to shake his head.
"Does the hunting ground refer to the forest over there?" Albert pointed his finger in the direction of the forbidden forest. Before Hagrid could answer, he continued, "I heard that there are werewolves in the forest. Is this true?"
"Are you a Ravenclaw student?" Hagrid asked uncertainly.
Albert glanced at his back and smirked three people, and replied, "No, we are all Gryffindor students."
"Oh, Gryffindor student." Hagrid suddenly said seriously, "I won't let you go into the woods..."
"Ahem, Albert, how do you know this dog will rub your head, I just thought it was quite fierce." George quickly shifted Hagrid's attention.
The three of them all leaned in and started rubbing their teeth.
"Intuition, probably. I also own cats, but I didn't bring the school." Albert casually found an excuse to prevaricate, "By the way, Mr. Hunting Field Watcher, you don't mind letting me take a picture another day!"
"You can call me Hagrid." Hagrid didn't refuse, he just recalled some past events suddenly.
"Well, Mr. Hagrid. Okay, Hagrid..." Albert quietly pulled the relationship between the two parties closer.
"What do you do with the picture?" Hagrid asked.
"I want my family to understand my life at Hogwarts. They are Muggles and don't know anything about Hogwarts." Albert explained.
"It's best not to reveal too much about the magic world to Muggles, it might cause you trouble." Hagrid reminded with a frown.
"Oh, I see." Albert looked at Hagrid, after thinking about it, or replied, "Because of the confidentiality law?"
"Do you know this?" Hagrid was a little surprised how Albert knew about secrecy. A Muggle wizard who had just entered Hogwarts should have very limited knowledge of the magic world.
Albert told Hagrid briefly about Truman's bad luck.
The hunting ground guard was stunned after hearing this. He whispered: "I don't know much about the secrecy law. I only know that minor wizards will be warned if they use magic in front of Muggle families. In residential areas, using magic in front of Muggles is a criminal act and will be expelled directly."
"Is there a case of being expelled from Hogwarts?" Albert found that he had indeed cheated Truman. No wonder it was an expulsion letter instead of a warning letter.
"As far as I know, there should be none." Hagrid was not very clear either.
"Your case is a special case." Fred cleared his throat and explained, "It can only be said that Truman's hapless guy accidentally hit you."
"Hmm!" Albert thought about it and knew the reason. There should be some Muggle wizards who were warned, but they were usually frightened by the letter, so they didn't dare to use magic at the risk of being expelled.
"By the way, Hagrid, what dangerous creatures are in the Forbidden Forest, why doesn't Dumbledore allow new students to enter the Forbidden Forest?" Albert pulled the topic back and talked about the topic that everyone was interested in now.
"There are many dangerous magical animals in the Forbidden Forest." Hagrid nodded.
"For example, werewolves?" Albert asked, raising his eyebrows.
"Yes, werewolf."
"Doesn't it mean that if you are bitten by a werewolf, you will become a werewolf? Dumbledore actually allows the students to be neighbors with the werewolf?" Albert raised his own doubts.
"Werewolves in the depths of the forbidden forest will not easily appear around the school, and..." When Hagrid spoke, his eyes were a little dodge, and he was obviously guilty.
"Hagrid, have you seen a unicorn?"
……
……
"How many questions are these?" The three of them whispered beside each other.
"Ten...or twelve?"
However, the three still admire Albert very much. They have all noticed that Albert almost made the situation of the Forbidden Forest by questioning.
They also discovered that Hagrid had a special liking for fire dragons. When Albert talked about fire dragons, Hagrid introduced the fire dragons with particular excitement.
As for the forest outside the forbidden forest, there is actually no danger. Students will occasionally attend classes there, but if you continue to go deep into the forbidden forest, you may encounter centaur werewolves, unicorns and other magical creatures in the forbidden forest.
Seeing that Albert had a soft spot for unicorns, Hagrid gave him a small bundle of unicorn tail hairs and warned the four of them not to try to enter the forbidden forest before they left.
Albert stopped, suddenly turned his head and asked: "Hagrid, is there a tree in the forest?"
"The guardian tree? You mean the Yamanashi tree?" Hagrid asked puzzledly.
"Yes." Albert said, "This kind of tree was mentioned in both the herbal medicine class and the defense against the dark arts class. It can really ward off evil spirits... I mean driving away dark magic creatures?"
"It's really useful." Hagrid nodded.
"That... can you help me... I mean I want a small section of the dead branches of the sorbus tree ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ what do you want that thing for?" Hagrid asked suspiciously.
"Make a gift for my sister who is going to give me. I heard that the tree has a shelter effect. I can pay some gallons." Albert said embarrassedly.
"No, I have time to go into the woods to help you see it, but don't expect too much. The tree guard will generally not let people touch the sorbus tree at will." Hagrid understood Albert's meaning.
Yamanashi tree, do you protect your family?
is really good.
"Thank you, Hagrid." Albert said gratefully, and he began to consider what Christmas presents he would give him.
"You are welcome." Hagrid scratched his head, embarrassed.
Like fangs, Hagrid was obviously not as fierce as his appearance.
"you are great."
On the way back to the castle, the three of them all gave a thumbs up and praised Albert.
"Do you want it?" Albert asked, taking out the small bundle of unicorn tail hair from his pocket.
"Forget it, what do you want this to do?"
"For my sister as a birthday present, she must have never seen unicorn tail hair!" Albert had already thought about it. If there is no Yamanashi wood, he would use unicorn tail hair to make a bracelet for it. Niya makes a birthday present.
"Birthday present?" Several people looked at each other.
"By the way, what birthday gift did we give Ginny this year?" Fred suddenly asked his twin brother.
"Licorice Wand."
"What about Ron?" Fred asked again.
"Fudge flies and cockroach skewers." George said without hesitation.
Albert suddenly felt that it was not easy for Ron to stand with such a brother.
