Chapter 253 What Is Harry?
No one paid attention to Hermione's actions, because everyone's eyes were attracted by the little dragon that was about to break out of its shell in front of them.
As the first eggshell was kicked away, a dragon wing stretched out from it, and then all the eggshells shattered, revealing the entire Norwegian Ridgeback.
It was an ugly lizard-like thing with black-green scales and black spines.
But in Hagrid's eyes, it was more charming than the treasure. Even though the little guy almost burned his beard with a breath of dragon breath flame, he still had a cheerful expression.
Harry and Ron were equally strangely tight, but Hermione couldn't stand it any longer.

"We have to leave immediately. Quirrell is very likely to steal the Philosopher's Stone. We must tell Professor McGonagall as soon as possible!" Hermione interrupted the three of them.
"What? How do you know the existence of the Philosopher's Stone?!" Hagrid looked confused.
Harry and Ron were confused as to why Hermione suddenly said this.
"The dragon egg is a tool to get closer to you, Hagrid. Now that the opponent knows Lu Wei's weakness, he may take action at any time, and that person is most likely Quirrell!"
"How can you be sure?"
"I'm not sure, I'm just guessing! First of all, Quirrell is too weird. He first pretended to be weak and was later forced to be exposed. Secondly, he was hostile to Harry. He was even stronger than me, the mastermind who seduced the dog. Finally, it was the last one. The important point is that the scar on Harry's forehead will hurt during his class." At this point, Hermione put her hands on the table and leaned over: "Everyone, think about it, who left that scar!"
In an instant, there were four gasps of air on the scene.
Hermione looked at the newly born ugly dragon strangely. This little guy could even imitate human breathing.
"No, absolutely impossible, that person is already dead!" Hagrid shook his head repeatedly, feeling cold.
Ron nodded in agreement, while Harry rubbed his forehead and frowned without saying a word.
"I didn't say it was that person, but maybe it was a dark wizard like a Death Eater." Hermione didn't finish her sentence, and she didn't know Quirrell's situation either. The reason why she mentioned the scar was because she wanted the people in front of her to take it seriously.
After Hermione finished speaking, she paid attention to the expressions of the three people and found that Hagrid's expression was wrong. "Hagrid, you thought of something, right?"
"No, that's another thing. Last year, a unicorn died inexplicably in the Forbidden Forest. I checked with the centaurs at the time, and we both thought it was the work of a dark wizard. That guy took the unicorn's blood. It was just crazy," Hager recalled.
"Wait!" Hermione interrupted quickly, "Is it the time before the Quidditch match?"
"How do you know?" Hagrid was shocked.
Hermione clapped her palms, causing the ugly dragon on the table to shrink its neck in fright, "That's right! Quirrell was seriously injured by Lu Wei and originally needed a long time to rest. This was said by Professor McGonagall herself. But Quirrell suddenly felt better during the Quidditch match. Thinking of the healing effect of unicorn blood, the dark wizard should be him! "
"But unicorn blood has a strong curse! Can he really drink it?"
"We only look at the results. Quirrell is fine, isn't he? Combined with all the previous doubts, even if there is no conclusive evidence, Quirrell is the biggest suspect. The professors must know!"
Harry also stood up at this time, "Hermione is right, the Philosopher's Stone can make people immortal. This kind of thing must not fall into Quirrell's hands, regardless of whether he is a Death Eater or not."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's leave now!" Ron also stood up.
"I can't go with you. Norbert was just born and he needs his mother." Hagrid apologized.
"Norbert?"
"Yeah, it always needs a name."
...
After bidding farewell to Hagrid's tree house, it was still dark, and the three of them almost ran all the way to the Transfiguration Office.
Seeing the three people rushing in, Mag, who was about to go to the auditorium for dinner, sat down again and said, "I hope you don't say too bad news."
As soon as she said this, Hermione said directly: "Professor, Quirrell may be a dark wizard and wants to steal the Sorcerer's Stone!"
Hermione then listed the clues one by one.
From these contents, any normal person can tell that something is wrong with Quirrell.
Although there was surprise on Mag's face, it didn't look like a reaction after hearing such a big event.
"I don't know how you know about the existence of the Philosopher's Stone, but I am certain that it is safe in Hogwarts. I will verify what you said carefully. It's time for dinner now. You go and eat first."
The three of them left the office with obviously unhappy expressions.
"Now the professors are at least wary of Quirrell," Ron said.
Next to him, Harry nodded.
However, Hermione felt more and more something was wrong, and she asked Lu Yuan in her mind.
"Are the clues I provided not clear enough? Why does Professor McGonagall look so unconcerned? It's impossible for him to deliberately let people steal the Philosopher's Stone, right?"
【why not? 】
Lu Yuan's rhetorical question caused a string of question marks to appear on Hermione's forehead, "Why?"
[Because of a prophecy: The person who has the ability to defeat the Dark Lord will be born at the end of July. The Dark Lord will mark him as his powerful enemy, but he has power that the Dark Lord does not know. One of them must die. On the other hand. 】
Hermione knew who she was talking about as soon as she heard it, "So this matter is related to Harry again?"
[Hmm, this is a trap deliberately set by Dumbledore. The reason why he keeps indulging Quirrell is to wait for him to take action on the Sorcerer's Stone, and Harry will also be reminded by "coincidence" that when the prophecy When the two of them come together, it's time to verify the authenticity of the prophecy. 】
The answer from Lu Yuan's mouth made Hermione feel a little cold. Thinking about Professor McGonagall's reactions several times before and after, Hermione was already sure of its authenticity.
But she still couldn't accept it, and said angrily: "How could they do this? What do they think Harry is?!"
At the same time, in a different location, in the principal's office, McGonagall also asked Dumbledore a similar question.
The old principal was silent for a long time before saying: "Harry is the hope in the prophecy. If possible, I am willing to sacrifice myself to prevent everyone from being harmed. However, Minerva, reality is always unsatisfactory. I think you know this very well. The importance of the field test determines how we will treat the child in the future. Please don’t let your emotions be affected by impulse. I promise you that I will do my best to protect him during the process!”
"Protection?!" Hermione found it hard to accept such words, "What if something unexpected happens? He is gambling with Harry's life!"
Halfway through, Hermione suddenly realized something was wrong and said in horror: "Wait a minute, the premise of all this refers to Harry and the Dark Lord, so isn't Quirrell really...Voldemort?!"
[To be precise, Voldemort's soul is parasitic on Quirrell. 】
After hearing this, Hermione trembled all over.
In the principal's office, McGonagall finally couldn't bear to ask: "Can the parasitized Quirrell still survive?"
"Minerva, Quirrell is a parasite of his own free will..."
"I know." McGonagall pursed her lips as if she had thought of something and said: "Albus, Hermione is much smarter than we thought. I'm worried that she will see something. You have to be prepared for changes in your plans. preparation.”
Dumbledore smiled at the mention of this, "This is indeed a happy trouble. I just don't know what Miss Granger will choose."
In the auditorium restaurant, Hermione took a hard bite of the lamb chop and said, "What else can I choose? Harry is my friend. I can't see him being kept in the valley like this. It's not fair to him!"
