Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 177 Our Brother Is Super Brave!

The ancient castle that has stood in Scotland for thousands of years should sound a bit spooky, just like the famous haunted castles in the UK. But Hogwarts is filled with a cheerful atmosphere. Today there is no distinction between professors and students. Everyone is celebrating holidays and spreading their own happiness.

The tall Hagrid drank one glass after another, and soon his face turned red. Blushing, he actually kissed Professor McGonagall on the cheek, but Professor McGonagall just blushed and giggled.

This scene really shocked the melon-eating Ada. Rubeus Hagrid was indeed a Gryffindor. Now Ada finally understood why Hagrid dared to raise his little cuties. He was the real warrior.

Compared with Hagrid, Quirrell, the mastermind behind the scenes, and Snape, the viper with a human face, are simply weak.

From today on, Hagrid is Ada’s idol. Although this brother is not handsome enough, has an unkempt beard, and is terrible at cooking, our brother is very brave!

From now on, Ada can say to others: Our brother dares to raise an Acromantula and a three-headed dog. Does your brother dare? Our brother dares to kiss Professor McGonagall, does your brother dare?

Just ask, who wouldn’t love such a brother?

Tomorrow Ada will publish an article in the "Daily Prophet" called "Hagrid is good, I want the whole world to know". It doesn’t matter whether the whole world knows about it or not. What’s important is that Hagrid must know it and build a good relationship with his idols. If Hagrid can give himself a bottle of Acromantula venom as a fan benefit, that would be even more perfect!

Ada and the others returned to the common room with a bunch of wizards' colorful firecracker trophies in their arms. Ada put the red hat on the head of the puppy Garen.

After sitting in the dormitory for a while, Ada heard the twins shouting her name loudly from below. The restless boys were going to have a snowball fight outside, so Ada asked Fred to take Galen out with him. , but she herself was stuck in bed, with no thought of going out.

In this way, Ada lay in the warm dormitory and fell asleep quietly, while the boys played wildly outside all afternoon, and the puppy Garen also ran outside all afternoon.

When they came back, they happened to meet Ada who was catching up on her sleep. Rubbing her eyes, Ada looked at the wet five people in front of her. If she hadn't known in advance that they were going to have a snowball fight, Ada would have thought that they had just gone to the Black Lake for winter swimming, swimming with their clothes on.

Five boys stood in a row in front of the fireplace, letting the warmth of the flames chase away their cold. Ada sat in an armchair by the fireplace, flipping through a book on alchemy.

Both wizards and Muggles were studying alchemy, and Ada even remembered that some Muggle scientists were also obsessed with alchemy. Of course Ada wasn't reading this to learn alchemy, she just wanted to know how the magic stone could turn stone into gold.

People still have to have dreams, what if they come true?

Ada regards the Philosopher's Stone as if she were buying a lottery ticket. She doesn't have any expectations but has a little bit of hope. Writing a book seems to be quite interesting. Watching and playing it is also a good choice to relieve boredom.

However, none of the other five people present except Percy would agree with her idea. Hermione, who was reunited at home at the moment, should agree with it.

When you are in school, you will find that time passes very slowly, and you have to go to class as soon as you open your eyes every day. When you are on vacation, you suddenly find that time passes quickly, as if you just closed your eyes last night and school is about to start the next day when you open them.

After Christmas, Professor McGonagall and Snape gave Ada a few days of rest, and these relaxing and comfortable days passed in the blink of an eye.

Students returned to school one after another, and Ada, who had not had enough rest, had to plunge into the intense study life again.

During this busy and fulfilling vacation, Ada forgot about Dumbledore's arrangements in Java. She had no time to care about whether Quirrell had deliberately approached Harry, nor whether Harry would get closer to Quirrell. Because of the relationship, she didn't have any private time until Christmas.

It was during these few days of private time that Ada discovered that Harry might have inherited Gryffindor's glorious tradition of visiting the castle at night.

Because Ada found that Harry always looked like he couldn't wake up during the day, and his dark circles were obvious, as if he had been punched by someone.

For several days, Harry looked like this, as if he was addicted to night walks.

But a few days later, Harry's dark circles disappeared, and he became very energetic during the day. It seemed that his exploration of the castle had come to an end for the time being.

If Ada stared at the Marauder's Map, she would discover the truth of the matter and see Harry, who had not left the common room, but appeared in the empty classroom with the Mirror of Erised.

But Ada didn't. Not only did she not, but the twins also hadn't used the Marauder's Map for a long time. They didn't need it much now.

The three of them were probably even more familiar with the castle than Filch, and they no longer needed to resort to outside help to avoid the school administrator.

After getting his father's invisibility cloak, Harry couldn't wait to put it on and left the lounge that night. He could see through the invisibility cloak Ada and the twins sitting by the fire talking about Quirrell, but these three people couldn't see him at all.

Harry, who was wearing an invisibility cloak, was wandering around the castle and accidentally discovered an empty classroom where the Mirror of Erised was stored. He was attracted by the magical power of the mirror and saw his parents and relatives in the mirror.

So, Harry would come here every night wearing an invisibility cloak and sit there all night, which is why he had dark circles under his eyes.

Harry also met Dumbledore here, and under his persuasion, Harry stopped coming here to "visit his family". This is why the dark circles under his eyes disappeared.

And Ada didn't know all this, she was still worrying about her own excellence.

I thought that without the selfless care of the two professors after the semester started, Ada would be able to live a more relaxed life. Unfortunately, it backfired. Instead of being relaxed, she became even busier.

Under Snape's command, in addition to completing the potions on the order with high quality and quantity, Ada also had to make three additional poisonous potions and two fireproof potions with completely different raw materials.

Especially these two fire retardants, the difficulty level is very high, and the time and heat are almost impossible. Ada was also very nervous during the making process, for fear of accidentally burning her robe.

It was also under Snape's personal tutelage that Ada received the news that he was going to referee the Gryffindor and Hufflepuff Quidditch matches.

Ada looked at Snape jokingly. He must be worried about something happening to Harry, so he became the referee. Snape turned his back to avoid Ada's eyes, and then kicked Ada out of the office. He couldn't bear to look at those curious eyes.

What news could be more exciting than this? What news could be more annoying to Gryffindors than this?

Hardly, so when Ada told Oliver Wood the news, the Gryffindor Quidditch captain lost sleep.

The captain couldn't sleep well, let alone the team members. Everyone agreed that Snape had bad intentions, because this game was very important to Gryffindor, and they could only compete with Slytherin for Quidditch if they won. Strange cup.

Everyone knew Snape's partiality, and everyone naturally believed that he acted as the referee of this game just to make Gryffindor lose.

Facing the other two teams is better than facing Gryffindor.

Fred and George also thought so, although they knew that Snape was not a villain, and they also knew that Snape had protected Harry during the game.

But Snape's various "evil deeds" in the past made it difficult for them to believe that Snape was just trying to protect Harry and had no plans for his own school.

Under such unfavorable circumstances, Wood could only lead his players to intensify training. Even heavy snow and continuous rainy weather could not stop him from leading his players to practice.

And all of this has nothing to do with Ada, who tipped off the news, because she received a letter from Dumbledore, telling her that she was going to receive personal guidance from the principal.
