Between discipline and cutie, Hagrid decisively chose cutie without any hesitation.
Hagrid took Hope to an open area on the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest, put down Lu Wei who had eaten and drank enough, and looked at Hope expectantly.
Hope pointed his wand at Lu Wei. To be honest, he was a little nervous. The solution to the shrinking curse was the expansion curse. This was something he read in the book. It said that the effects of the two curses would cancel each other out to achieve the solution. The effect of the spell, the corresponding solution to the expansion spell is the shrinking spell.
But the book never mentioned releasing animals. Out of curiosity, he used it on a toad at the Black Lake, but it didn't work. The toad flew into the lake as if it had been kicked.
So he was a little unsure now. The toad was fine, and Lu Wei, as a magical animal, should be fine too.
Hope took a deep breath to calm down his nervousness, and looked firmly at Lu Wei, who was lying on the ground and snoring in front of him. At the key point of the spell release, he firmly believed that his spell would work.
"Growing big quickly"
As soon as he finished speaking, an invisible energy acted on Lu Wei. Lu Wei's three dog heads looked at me and you blinked blankly.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Wei's body began to expand unconsciously. The sudden change made Lu Wei startled. He stood up and fluttered in fear. Seeing that the situation was not going well, he swooped behind Hagrid. In this case, Hagrid's huge The body looks very secure.
Seeing the scared Luwei Hagrid, he felt heartbroken and immediately rushed forward and hugged the one in the middle of the three dog heads. Apparently Lu Wei is bigger than Hope imagined.
Lu Wei's growing body directly brought Hagrid into the air. Hagrid's long beard made Lu Wei's nose itchy, and he sneezed and threw Hagrid down.
Hope, who was a little surprised on the side, saw the big butt falling in mid-air. He immediately rolled around like a donkey and dodged without any chance. If he was sat down, he would die young.
Hope found that Hagrid was really rough-skinned and fleshy. The two halves of the mark on the ground were so big that nothing happened to Hagrid when he got up and patted his butt.
At this time, Lu Wei had stopped growing and lost the pressure of the shrinking spell. Lu Wei now felt much more relaxed. Hagrid also happily ran over and stroked Lu Wei, but now he could only touch Lu Wei's neck. .
Although Hagrid always kept him hungry, Lu Wei still stuck out his tongue and licked Hagrid affectionately. For some reason, the three dog heads licked even more vigorously.
Hope looked at Hagrid, who was being treated as a lollipop, strangely. If I remembered correctly, Hagrid had gone to get fertilizer for him before, and shoveled a whole cart. Fertilizer should be...
Hey~ I can’t think about it.
Lu Wei's size was obviously not suitable for staying in Hagrid's hut anymore, so Hagrid settled it in the Forbidden Forest, and then reluctantly left with Hope.
Hagrid seemed very happy on the way, humming an unknown tune cheerfully.
"Hagrid, where did you get Fluffy? I know it's a three-headed dog. The mutant joke is not very funny." Although it was a bit inappropriate, Hope still had to ask. He couldn't forget it. He always Dad is still worried about the smugglers. Rare creatures like three-headed dogs cannot be obtained casually.
Hearing Hope's question, Hagrid's big face began to stiffen, and his cheerful tune was out of tune.
Hagrid looked into Hope's serious eyes and glanced away guiltily: "I picked it up on the road."
Hope sighed helplessly, "Hagrid, you are really not suitable for lying."
Hope just stared at him, and under Hope's cold eyes, Hagrid was finally defeated.
"Okay, actually, I got Lu Wei in exchange for it. About two months ago, I was shopping in Knockturn Alley, and there was a man in black robe selling magical animals. I was curious and went over to take a look. Lu Wei's little The figure immediately attracted me."
"But I didn't have that much money, so I was wondering if I could exchange it. I didn't expect him to agree very happily."
Hope asked curiously: "What did you use in exchange for it?"
A three-headed dog shouldn't be cheap. Although I don't know what it can do. It's not like the fire dragon, light, and dragon blood, which has twelve ways to use it. But three-headed dogs are rare, and things are more valuable when they are rare.
Hagrid thought for a while and said: "There aren't many things, just a pair of horns and a layer of skin that I picked up in the Forbidden Forest before. It's useless for me to keep them anyway."
Hope suddenly remembered those unicorn horns hanging in Hagrid's room. The corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. The pair of horns and skin must be some very valuable materials. The smuggler just changed them without saying a word. Hagrid knew nothing about his wealth.
Not dwelling on the issue, Hope then asked, "Do you remember any specific characteristics of the smuggler?"
Hagrid frowned and thought about it carefully. This was a bit difficult for him. His attention was all on Lu Wei at the time.
"I remembered that although the man in black robe was wearing a mask at the time, I saw three scratches next to his eyes."
Three scratches? This is a very useful clue. As for whether it is possible to pretend to be someone else through Polyjuice Potion, Hope thinks it is unlikely. First of all, the man in black robe is wearing a mask, and drinking Polyjuice Potion is a bit redundant. Secondly, Polyjuice Potion is controlled. Magic potions are hard to buy.
The most important point is that the polyjuice potion is very difficult to refine, and the materials used are very rare. As for Hermione being able to refine it in one go, Hope could only say that she was lucky and talented.
Arriving at Hagrid's hut, Hope opened the suitcase given to him by Professor Sprout. To his surprise, it turned out to be an expanded suitcase, but the space was not very large.
Since private use of the Invisible Telescopic Charm is prohibited, suitcases, tents and the like that have been legally cast with the Invisible Telescopic Charm are sold very expensively, with the cheapest ones costing around thirty gold galleons per suitcase. The tent can be sold for two hundred gold galleons.
Professor Sprout was really extravagant to carry fertilizer in such a suitcase. Of course, she might have done it herself.
With the joint efforts of Hope and Hagrid, a whole truck of fertilizer was quickly loaded into the suitcase. Hagrid said that it was all very fresh Moon-Crazy Beast feces dug from the Forbidden Forest this morning.
Now, Hope just wanted to put Professor Sprout down quickly and take a bath. He felt that he smelled bad. No wonder Lu Wei licked Hagrid so happily.
After closing the suitcase, Hope lifted it up easily, not knowing where the weight went.
Before leaving, Hagrid looked at Hope with some anxiety. Hope understood and said, "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you and won't tell the principal."
Hagrid breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you Hope, I don't want to cause any more trouble to Dumbledore."
Hope waved her hands and left.
I thought to myself: 'I'll tell my dad directly and ask him to catch you for buying magical animals illegally.' 'Of course this is just a joke. He now deeply understands that Hagrid's brain circuit is different from others, and he also likes Lu Wei very much. The most important thing is that three-headed dogs are really rare. His grandfather's breeding factory has them. No.
It would be a pity if this was confiscated by the Ministry of Magic, but he still had to tell his father about the characteristics of the man in black robes and the shrinking spell.
As for his dad asking how he knew...
Hum hum, why do I, Hope Lloyd, need to explain to others how I have behaved throughout my life?
