Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 480: Please take care of this pot
Minister of Magic Fudge personally led a surprise inspection, but still could not find any trace of the dragon.
A mere hunting ground guard easily played everyone like monkeys.
Neither Quirrell nor Malfoy had a hard time believing this, they were convinced that Hagrid had found a way to smuggle the dragon to safety and hide.
However, the dragon-raising incident has been inexplicable from beginning to end.
Others don't even know what happened, and this is the end of it?
You know, the Ministry of Magic's surprise inspections are basically one-to-one, and it turns out that Hagrid has been innocently wronged.
He didn't keep a dragon from start to finish.
Who is deliberately slandering Hagrid?
It was quickly known that the man was Draco Malfoy, the hapless man who was soon given a name for deliberately slandering the gamekeeper at the school.
As for who sent anonymous letters to the Minister of Magic?
It's Snape, of course.
Malfoy told Snape only about it from start to finish.
He doesn't take the blame, who takes the blame?
To this end, Dumbledore and Snape again discussed the matter in the Headmaster's office.
"He shouldn't lie, otherwise I can't see it." Snape was also very depressed, and he never thought that this black pot would be put on his head inexplicably.
"That's weird." Dumbledore murmured, "The Minister of Magic came to make a surprise inspection without warning. If Hagrid really raised dragons, it would be impossible to hide it."
"I don't think it's just a prank." Snape shook his head. "I'm sure Draco Malfoy wouldn't have dared to do that. Lucius told me that he had received similar letters, and the Minister of Magic A large part of being at Hogwarts has to do with Lucius."
"It appears that someone deliberately arranged it."
"You think someone has cast a spell on Draco to make him..." Snape locked on his target immediately.
I did everything I could to stop Quirrell, so was the other party taking revenge on him?
"Looks like Quirrell can't take it anymore." Dumbledore said softly, "That's right, he's endured it for a long time."
"What do you think Quirrell's purpose is, the dog?"
Snape guessed wrong, it should be said that he only guessed the second level, and the real answer was in the fourth level.
This so-called careful planning is actually just a simple attempt by Albert.
If Quirrell goes according to his plan, Albert has earned it.
If not, Albert is not at a loss.
However, Albert never thought that the plan would be more successful than originally expected. He gave Quirrell a seemingly solid plan.
I didn't expect Quirrell to actually implement it, and to Albert's astonishment, Quirrell squeezed out his last remaining value, including the value of the Dragon Egg incident.
As the big boss and beneficiary behind all this, Albert's mood is quite complicated.
Quelow is such a nice guy!
Not only Galleons, quests, but also experience.
It's a pity to die.
In the future, where will I go to find such a good person.
After a series of tricks by Quirrell, Albert not only successfully obtained a new task of "Rescue Norbert", but also a task of "Please take care of this pot".
This task requires three people inexplicably taking the blame for others.
However, the most annoying thing about this quest is that when Albert finds it on the quest list, the quest has already been completed.
The reward is also good, 3000 experience, 1 skill point, and a "behind the scenes" title.
……
Actually, the cause of all this started a few days ago.
Quiell got a proposal to remove the mirror from the letter, and through the message at the bottom of the letter, he buried another 200 Galleons at the designated location in exchange for a way to take away Dumbledore.
So, Albert sent Quirrell another letter, giving him the trick.
On the day the letter was received, Quirrell was just round the corner and overheard Harry, Ron and Hermione's conversation.
Compared with the plan to sell everything, even Quirrell had to admit that the method in the letter had a high chance of success.
It's illegal to keep a dragon, plus a three-headed dog, enough for Hagrid to go to the Ministry of Magic for trial.
When Dumbledore was serving on the jury, he was just looking for an opportunity to do it.
As for why it suddenly failed, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't matter what news is sold.
Quirrell and Malfoy were in a good mood on the day the Daily Prophet and the Ministry of Magic showed up at Hogwarts.
No matter how they looked at it, they didn't think Hagrid had a way to hide the dragon without warning.
I can't hide it at all!
However, they don't seem to know that there is something called a time-turner in the wizarding world.
Albert discovered that the Ministry of Magic had appeared at Hogwarts early in the morning, and immediately used the time-turner to go back a few hours to help Hagrid hide the dragon Norbert.
The surprise inspection by the Ministry of Magic has naturally come to nothing, even if the Minister of Magic Fudge personally leads the team.
This incident directly took a 180-degree reversal.
Even Hagrid's dialogue style and techniques for dealing with Ministry of Magic staff were taught by Albert on the spot.
You say I'm illegally raising dragons?
I don't know, I don't, you have to tell the evidence.
Without evidence, it's slander.
Of course, even if the Ministry of Magic turned Hagrid's cabin upside down, there would be no proof.
So, when Harry, Ron and Hermione went to Hagrid again, a few days after Hagrid justly said that keeping a dragon was illegal, they found that the dragon was still there, and had grown bigger .
"Hagrid, why is it still here?" Harry looked at Norbert, who was eating dead mice, in surprise, and Hagrid in disbelief.
Didn't you say that raising dragons is against the law?
Under the questioning of the three of Harry, Hagrid had to repeat the last time Albert helped him pass the surprise inspection.
"He's amazing." All three felt that Albert was an incredible guy.
"By the way, Hagrid, I just saw Malfoy, he seems very unwilling." Harry reminded, "You have to be careful, don't let anyone else know."
"I've put Fangya outside the house, and if anyone comes near here, I'll know," Hagrid said absently.
He even sealed the curtains in the house, but there was no good way.
"What did Albert say?" Hermione asked cautiously.
"He told me to confess to the headmaster and send the dragon away." Hagrid said reluctantly, biting his lip, "I know I can't keep it forever, but I can't just throw it away."
"Albert is right, Headmaster Dumbledore should find someone to adopt this dragon." Hermione comforted ~IndoMTL.com~ Maybe, I have a good idea! said Ron suddenly.
"What's the best way?"
Harry, Hermione, and Hagrid all turned to look at Ron.
"Remember when I told you my second brother Charlie was studying dragons in Romania. We could write to Charlie and he might be happy to help take care of it, I think that's the best thing yet. way."
"Excellent, Ron!" said Harry excitedly. They could finally get rid of the dragon.
"How about it, Hagrid?" Hermione looked at Hagrid nervously, for fear that he would disagree.
Finally, Hagrid agreed, because it was the best way at the moment, and he had an agreement with Albert that if he couldn't solve it by himself, Albert would tell the headmaster about it. I don't want to bother Dumbledore anymore.
Ron sends an owl to ask Charlie if he'd like to adopt a dragon.
In the next few days, Malfoy still didn't give up. He took a camera and ran to the nearby hunting grounds cabin whenever he was free, ready to take pictures of the little dragon to prove that he was not lying at all.
As for Quirrell, after Xiaolong's plan failed, he also received new compensation, and Albert sent him a brand new plan.
This time, Quirrell directly tore up the plan, not going to follow Albert's plan, but going to use his own prepared plan.
Quirrell was about to use the Imperius Curse to control Fudge, and asked Fudge to chat with Dumbledore and ask him to help him come up with ideas.
Anyway, Fudge is known to do this a lot.
Albert didn't know about it, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. Hagrid told him that Ron offered Charlie's help to adopt Norbert.
Somewhere in the world, there seems to be a pair of hands that reset history back to its original trajectory.
