Chapter 884 Hagrid Returns

Speaking of which, Hagrid really posed a big problem for Fanlin.

It was already very difficult to bring a giant to Hogwarts under Umbridge's nose, and it was also the centaur's forbidden forest. It was already very difficult to carve out a lake for Nobo, and now a giant was added to the mix?

Fanlin had to go to the centaurs' territory to negotiate when no one was around. Fortunately, Hagrid had a good relationship with the centaurs. At the same time, Fanlin also solved the problem of the centaurs' forbidden land, which expanded the centaurs' territory a lot. Only then did Graup get a position in the middle of the forest.

However, Fanlin has always been worried about whether Graup and Noble can get along. Although they are bound by magic and become the protectors of Hogwarts, Noble will not easily hurt the people of Hogwarts.

However, Graup is obviously not within this scope.

But this is what Hagrid has to worry about.

It was after seven o'clock in the evening when Hagrid came back, and by the time Hagrid settled Grawp in the open space prepared by Fanlin, it was already after nine o'clock in the evening when the lights of the cabin next to the Forbidden Forest came on.

When Fanlin told Harry that Hagrid had returned, Harry ran to the boys' dormitory at almost full speed and took out his invisibility cloak and Marauder's Map; he was so fast that he and Ron were in the girls' dormitory with Fanlin. After waiting at the door of the dormitory for five minutes, when she saw Hermione wearing her knitted scarf and gloves and Ron's impatient expression, Hermione said cautiously: "It's very cold outside! We should have enough Prepare!"

They hurriedly put on the invisibility cloak and crawled out of the portrait door. Ron had grown a lot taller. He now had to squat down and move slowly and carefully to avoid his feet hitting obstacles!

In fact, Harry very much refused to use the Disillusionment Curse, which made him feel very uncomfortable. In the end, he and Ron wore invisibility cloaks, while Fanlin and Hermione chose a better way.

No one should mind the two pet cats. Harry is quite envious of them anyway, but Harry is destined not to become a cat. His patronus is a stag. If he ran around in Hogwarts...

Other students will definitely question Hagrid's feeding skills.

What's more, it seems that he is still very far away from mastering the Animagus, anyway. Harry is not sure yet about entering Professor McGonagall's advanced class.

This matter ultimately depends on Hermione's after-school tutoring.

They walked downstairs, Harry stopping from time to time to look at the Marauder's Map to see where Figg and Mrs. Norris were.

In fact, they were so lucky that they didn't meet anyone except Nearly Headless Nick. Nick said something incomprehensible, "Weasley is the King" as he floated away.

This is probably due to the dried fish. Cats are very familiar with the smells of other similar species, especially Mrs. Lorris is not the kind of tabby cat who doesn’t understand...

They walked out of the hall and came outside. Although it was snowing, Harry saw the smoke coming from the chimney of Hagrid's cabin, and his heart beat rapidly.

Harry started running quickly, causing Ron to stumble behind him.

The two cats were jumping in the snow. Fortunately, the snow outside was not too thick, and it just barely covered the soles of their feet. This was almost a natural camouflage.

Finally, they walked excitedly through the thick snow and arrived at the door of the hut! When Harry knocked on the door three times with his fist, there was a burst of dog barking inside!

"Hagrid, it's us!" Harry shouted!

"Wait a minute!" said a rough voice.

They looked at each other under the crack, and they heard in Hagrid's voice that he was very happy. Three seconds later they heard the sound of the door bolt being pulled, the door creaked open, and Hagrid's face was revealed in the crack of the door!

Hermione screamed.

"Oh my God, keep your voice down!" Hagrid said hastily, ducking away from their gazes. "You are wearing an invisibility cloak, right? Okay, come in, come in!"

"Sorry!" Hermione gasped, following the three of them into Hagrid's room. They took off their cloaks so Hagrid could see them.

"I really-oh, Hagrid! What are you..."

"It was an accident, an accident," Hagrid said hastily, closing the door and all the windows after they entered the house, but Hermione saw the horrified look on his face.

Hagrid's hair was stuck together with coagulated blood, and there was a swollen scar on his left eye and one was beaten purple-black. There were many wounds on his face and hands, some of which were still bleeding. Judging from his careful movements, Harry suspected that he had also injured his ribs.

It was obvious that he had just arrived home. His large black cloak and rucksack were placed on the chair behind the door. Hagrid, who was as big as two people, was putting a copper lotus kettle on the stove.

"What happened to you?" Harry asked, Fangs was jumping around them and trying to lick their faces...

"It was an accident!" Hagrid insisted. "Would you like a cup of tea?"

"Stop lying," said Ron, "tell the truth!"

"I told you, it's okay," Hagrid looked at them and was about to give them a smile, but turned away in fear.

"You should know what you are doing, Hagrid." Fan Lin said seriously.

"I know very well, okay, I'm fine, this is just an accident." Hagrid said loudly, probably because of lack of confidence. Later, his voice became smaller and smaller until there was no sound, and he sounded a little weak. , Hagrid had to quickly change the topic.

"Hi! It's great to see you all! It's such a nice summer, isn't it?"

"Hagrid, you're being attacked!" Ron said.

"I told you just now, it was an accident!" Hagrid insisted. "Do you think we wouldn't be able to tell at all that you were hit in the face?" Ron said.

"You should ask Madam Pomfrey to take a look at it, Hagrid," Hermione said worriedly, "your wound looks dirty!"

"They won't kill me, it's okay," Hagrid said depressingly. He walked to the large wooden table in the center of the small room and violently lifted the rag covering it. Underneath was a steak as big as a car tire dripping with green blood.

"Hagrid, you don't want to eat this, do you?" Ron said. He leaned close to the table and looked at the meat. "It looks like it's poisonous."

"It just looks poisonous, it's dragon flesh," Hagrid said. "Ah, I won't eat it!"

He picked up a piece of dragon meat and patted it gently on his left cheek. The green blood was dripping down his beard as he let out a groan of contentment.

"This is much better, they are great for treating wounds."

"You should tell me in the letter, so that I can prepare some potions for you, Hagrid." Fan Lin said,

"So, will you tell us what happened to you?" Harry asked

"No, Harry, this is top secret. My job doesn't allow me to tell you."

"Did the giant hit you, Hagrid?" Hermione asked calmly.

The dragon meat in Hagrid's hand fell onto his chest.

"Did you tell them?"

"It's not a secret." Hermione said, "We are at the Order of the Phoenix headquarters, but you have never been here."

"So, this wound was caused by a giant? But Fan Lin didn't tell us that you were injured when he came back..." Harry asked quickly.

"And it looks like some new wounds!" Ron continued.

"And Grawp, who is he?" Hermione asked again. (To be continued)
