Sequence Potions at Hogwarts

Chapter 330 Hagrid's Blessings and Misfortunes

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, the performance of the Weird Sisters ended, and the banquet ended.A lot of people wished the banquet was a little longer.

Hermione, who was persuaded by Tifa, returned to the banquet.At the end, he said goodbye to Krum, ignored Ron and Harry next to him, and walked upstairs in silence.

Luna and Tifa had a great time, but because of Nix, Neville didn't want to dance, so he was the dance partner of the two girls.

Send Luna back to Ravenclaw, and when I return to the Gryffindor lounge, I hear Ron and Hermione arguing, the voice is deafening.

A few days after Christmas, the new semester begins, and Nix is ​​shocked to read the newspaper over breakfast. The "Daily Prophet" published a report by Rita Skeeter, she exposed Hagrid's giant lineage!

In fact, Rita Skeeter's target was not Hagrid, but Dumbledore. Hagrid was just taken out as a model.

Luna found Nix stunned, took the newspaper and read it.After reading it, he asked worriedly, "Will Hagrid be fired?"

"No." Nix was sure. "Unless he doesn't want to do it himself, he won't be expelled. When will our principal care about such reports?"

However, the Professor of Fantastic Creatures became Graplan, not Hagrid.The teaching content is also much safer, a unicorn, no monsters with teeth and claws.

Nix was a little disappointed, the monsters with teeth and claws can be killed and made into materials.Not for unicorns, which are protected creatures stipulated by the Ministry of Magic and cannot be hunted and killed at will.

There is another bad thing.

There were five people who overheard the conversation between Hagrid and Ms. Maxim.Nix, Luna, Harry, Ron and Fleur.The fact that Hagrid's giant lineage was reported by Rita Skeeter made everyone suspicious.

Ron was sure that the Knicks leaked the news.No one knows what is in my heart.

Harry didn't express it, but he also had doubts in his heart.It wasn't that someone had deliberately leaked the secret, but that maybe just as he and Ron had told Hermione about it, Nix, Luna, and Fleur might have told it to someone close to them.

Hermione thought it was Fleur.Hagrid said at the time that Beauxbaton's headmaster was also of giant descent, and not only Ms. Maxim was angry, but Fleur was also very angry. She probably told Rita Skeeter about this in order to get revenge on Hagrid.

Nix doesn't care who leaked it, he remembers Rita Skeeter as an outlaw Animagus, maybe she overheard it herself.

But now Hagrid is autistic, whether because of Ms. Maxim's rejection or because of the leak of his giant blood, this is not good news.

Many of Nix's potion materials come from Hagrid.The quality of the plants in the Forbidden Forest is extremely high, and Hagrid's fee is not expensive, so it is a very high-quality source of goods.Hagrid's autism made him have to go to the Forbidden Forest to find materials by himself.

Into January, Professor McGonagall counted who was going to Hogsmeade again.The Knicks didn't plan to go.But Tifa wanted to go shopping, and her allowance was restricted by her mother, so she turned her attention to Nix.

In the common room, Tifa said, "Brother, this time Luna will also go."

"Well, you guys had fun." Nix continued to write some ideas for new potions on the parchment.

Looking at Nix's records, Tifa suddenly said, "I remember you're running out of materials, why don't you go to Hogsmeade to buy some?"

"I'm going to find an opportunity to collect it myself in the Forbidden Forest, maybe I can collect advanced materials." Nix replied.

Tifa was very interested in the mysterious Forbidden Forest and asked, "Can you take me there?"

"No, the Forbidden Forest is too dangerous. It's not something you can handle now. According to your progress, at least you have to learn apparation in fifth grade to ensure safety."

"But brother, you can't apparate either."

"I'm an Animagus, and I can run when I'm in danger."

Tifa was speechless and went to complain to Ginny.

Ginny was beside Harry, listening to their discussion about Hagrid.The trio decided to go to Hogsmeade to see Hagrid on Saturday.

Tifa's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she found Nix again.

"Brother, do you think it's possible for Hagrid to be in Hogsmeade?"

"He's been in the cabin."

Tifa thought for a while and said, "I mean, is it possible for him to go to Hogsmeade for a drink? I've heard that some people would choose to have two drinks when encountering difficulties."

Nix stopped the pen in his hand, looked up at his sister, nodded after thinking for a while and said, "It's possible, Hagrid might go to the bar. Well, I'll go to Hogsmeade with you."

"Yes." The little girl jumped up.

Saturday, Hogsmeade.

Nix walked around Hogsmeade with the two girls, and finally came to the Three Broomsticks bar, and saw Ludo Bagman talking to Harry.

Hearing a message while passing by them. "Barty Crouch hasn't been to work at the Ministry for two weeks."

The news stunned Nix, knowing that Barty Crouch had been under Voldemort's control.I also believe that Voldemort will not make the mistake of letting Barty Crouch absent from work without reason, then there is only one possibility, Barty Crouch is out of Voldemort's control.

Remember that Barty Crouch died near Hogwarts, where exactly can't be verified.The question is, will he go to the Forbidden Forest?What if you stumble upon a murder scene?Even if you don't see the murder scene, what if you run into the Death Eaters chasing Barty Crouch?

Nix suddenly felt that Hagrid's autism was too inopportune.But he immediately realized that it was not so much that he was autistic at the wrong time, but that he was autistic at the right time. If he patrolled the forest as usual, he might be killed if he encountered a murder.

What is this, good fortune and misfortune depend on it, and misfortune and blessing depend on it?

Nix didn't know that he didn't need to worry about running into the murder, because the murder was over.On Christmas Day, the fake Moody's spell on Barty Crouch went awry when he hallucinated.

Barty Crouch wanted to come to Hogwarts after escaping, warning Dumbledore.Unfortunately, the first person I saw at Hogwarts was not Dumbledore, but the son disguised as Moody, who was silenced immediately.

(In the original book, Barty Crouch broke free of the Dementia spell by himself.)

After Nix made his sister and Luna a butterbeer, he heard Harry yell. "Who cares if he's a half-giant? There's nothing abnormal about him."

There was no sound in the tavern, Nix turned his head and looked over, Harry yelled at Rita Skeeter, and Rita Skeeter took out her notebook with a smile, her tone was calm, but everyone could hear it.

"Would you like to talk to me about Hagrid as you know it? The humanity behind the sinews? Your inexplicable friendship and the reasons behind it. Do you regard him as a father?"

Nix shuddered when he heard it, and said in a low voice, "This is really going to kill Harry!"
