Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 118: Bring a lucky bracelet
Weekends.
It's a sunny day, perfect for a Quidditch match.
At 10:30 in the morning, Albert and his group set off from the castle, walked through the snow on the road to the stadium stand, where a large number of students had gathered, and everyone was talking loudly about the outcome of the game.
"Good morning, Hagrid." Albert greets Hagrid with binoculars.
"Thank you for the hat." Hagrid tapped the wool hat on his head. "I never thought I'd get a present for Christmas."
"You can take it as a gift in return." Albert said with a smile.
"A return gift?" Hagrid asked in confusion, "What return gift?"
"The guardian branch, the unicorn tail hair." Albert raised his wrist, and a delicate white bracelet was added to it.
"What is this?"
"The bracelet that brings good luck, I made it with the unicorn tail hair and the guardian tree that you gave me." Albert explained with a smile, "It can bring good luck to the wearer."
"Good luck to the wearer?" Hagrid muttered softly, "I've never heard of a unicorn tail and a protector tree bringing good luck to the wearer."
Fred, George, and Lee Jordan nearby couldn't help but laugh.
Let you like to fool others, now eat it!
Hagrid coughed lightly, "However, your rope is beautifully woven."
"I mean the symbol on it." Albert held up two pendants polished from the protector tree and showed them to the three of them, engraved with the rune symbol that Albert had shown them a while ago.
"You really engraved that strange symbol on it. Are you sure this thing really works?" George asked suspiciously.
"Who knows?" Albert shrugged and said, "Maybe it can really bring good luck, then it will be earned."
Originally, Albert intended to create a body bracelet.
However, several beads were broken one after another, so I gave up temporarily and chose the simplest good luck symbol to engrave.
As for whether this thing can bring him good luck, Albert doesn't know.
Anyway, when he tried to use his own blood to activate the runes on the beads, he didn't feel anything special.
It is estimated that it failed.
However, Albert still wears it, just to verify whether the rune is really effective.
"Gryffindor vs. Hufflepuff, does anyone want to bet?" At this time, several senior students walked towards this side with wooden boxes for betting, interrupted by shouts Albert's thoughts.
The twins appear to be making a bet, and Lee Jordan, next to him, has already pulled out a silver snickerdoodle.
"Who do you bet on to win?" The three of them looked at Albert.
"I'm betting on Gryffindor catching the Snitch and winning." Albert pulled out a silver coin to bet.
"So do we." The three of them handed the money to each other.
"A lot of people bet on this, it's not very odd, if it's a win against Hufflepuff, we'll give it three times the odds," said the student.
"No, just Gryffindor."
Albert doesn't care if he wins or not, just having a good time, just for the atmosphere.
"What's your name." The senior student took out his notebook and quill and looked at the few people.
"His name is Albert Anderson." George replied for Albert.
"Albert Anderson." The upperclassman scribbled something and handed it to Albert, "We'll be at the exit after the game, and if you win, you Come to us with a note."
Albert looked at the three roommates and said speechlessly, "You are not afraid of losing money."
"We trust your luck." The three said in unison. Since Albert bet, although the probability is not high, they are still willing to follow.
"My luck?" Albert couldn't help rolling his eyes and said, "Don't blame me for losing money."
"We won't," Fred said. "We don't think the Gryffindor team that has been training hard will lose."
"Gambling is not a good habit." Hagrid raised his eyebrows in warning.
"It's just for the atmosphere, and, I still have this, I'm lucky." Albert said confidently.
"I just thought you'd bet 10 Galleons."
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Albert couldn't help rolling his eyes and said, "This kind of private bet is never reliable. If I bet 10 Galleons and win, the other party can bet me. Will you come back if you win?"
"I don't think I can get it out." Fred thought for a while and replied.
"Well, it looks like you know what you're doing." Hagrid nodded. Occasionally a small bet is fine.
"Last time he was betting on who was the Minister of Magic and he won 100 Galleons," Lee Jordan explained. "This guy's luck is scary."
Hagrid opened his mouth in surprise and threw the thought to the ground and smashed it to pieces.
"Ahem, Hagrid, which pair do you think will win?" Albert asked.
"Of course it's Gryffindor," said Hagrid sullenly. "Better not to gamble, no one can keep winning."
Ahem, I know that.
Actually, Albert actually won the bet, and Gryffindor finally beat the Hufflepuffs.
This exciting game lasted only an hour and Charlie managed to catch the Snitch.
"Win."
"Win."
"Ah, the note flew."
In the end, Hagrid reached out to help them grab the parchment, but luckily there was no wind today.
"Give the parchment to Albert, you unreliable bastard." Lee Jordan snatched the parchment from Fred and stuffed it to Albert.
"Accident, that's just an accident." Fred sneered, and he was sweating just now.
"Thank you, Hagrid." Albert thanked Hagrid.
"You're welcome."
Albert and the others found the two senior students at the entrance and took them from the other side. Four silver coins could be used as a reward.
"Look, my lucky bracelet still brings me luck." Albert blinked, "Those runes are still useful."
"Your luck is good, okay!" Fred couldn't help rolling his eyes, betting winning made them all in a good mood.
"By the way, did you enter the forest from this side last time?" Albert asked suddenly after looking at the nearby forest.
Fred and George's expressions froze with Hagrid next to you, bastard, forget about it.
"Into the woods?" Hagrid looked at the four people in front of him vigilantly~IndoMTL.com~Hagrid, can you take us into the woods to gain insight. "Albert looked in the direction of the Forbidden Forest and asked Hagrid beside him.
"That won't do." Hagrid flatly refused.
Albert was not at all embarrassed to sell Fred and George, "the two of them sneaked into the woods and said the woods next to the school were ordinary."
"You really..."
"You bastard." The twins glared at Albert, who betrayed them so bluntly.
"Ahem, I heard others say that there are many secrets hidden in the Forbidden Forest. You can take us in for a walk and satisfy our curiosity." Albert winked at Hagrid and said, " From now on, we won't be curious about what's in that forest."
Hagrid was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something, before finally shaking his head in rejection.
"Can't you keep us safe too?" Albert asked rhetorically.
"The school rules that students are not allowed to enter the forbidden forest," Hagrid said.
"Actually, I think Dumbledore forbids others to enter the woods, but it will arouse the curiosity of the students." Albert blinked, "As far as I know, many people have quietly entered the woods. "
"A lot of people?" Hagrid glared at the Weasley brothers.
"Ahem, they're just an example," Albert explained. "We just wanted to satisfy our curiosity, and you don't go into the woods very often."
"Okay, it's just this time, it won't be an example next time." Hagrid thought about it and agreed, "Come with me, don't run around."
"Look! Lucky charms work well, right?" Albert winked at the stunned three people.
The three never thought that Albert could convince Hagrid to take them into the woods.
