At around 9 o'clock, Harry got up from the bed in a daze. After washing, his two big dark circles became more and more conspicuous.
Aini's words the day before yesterday had a great impact on him, and he had been unable to sleep as expected in the past two days.
Harry longed for information about his parents, wanting to flesh out their images so that he could remember them when he dreamed back at midnight.
But the reality is that he doesn't even know what they look like, and his only memory is the scream accompanied by the green light.
His two friends could not help him.
Although they were both members of the Order of the Phoenix, the Arthurs were certainly familiar with Harry's parents, and Harry could have found the answer from them.
But unfortunately, even Ron didn't know this.
When he came to the lounge, the scene in front of him made Harry, who was feeling heavy, couldn't help but feel a sense of joy.
Fred, George, Jordan and other senior students sat around the sofa, 11 pairs of the same style with dark circles under their eyes were inexplicably funny.
Maybe they could form a football team, that would be a selling point, Harry thought unkindly.
At the same time, they also looked at Harry. Everyone looked at each other and laughed one after another.
"Oh, Harry, are you going to hook up with little girls in the middle of the night like Percy?" Fred screamed, earning a glare from Percy.
"Looking at your expression, you failed. It doesn't matter. Try again today. The eye shadow will make you more attractive." George then joked, and then the twins laughed heartlessly.
"Shut up." Percy's face turned red. When Professor McGonagall pulled him out from under the mistletoe yesterday, he and Penello were kissing.
This was also the first time he had points deducted. You know, as a "model Percy", even Snape's attitude towards him was different from other Gryffindors.
Percy thought he would be very sad, but inexplicably, after breaking his "first time", he felt a long-lost sense of relief.
Especially yesterday, after two hours of non-stop casting with other fellow sufferers, everyone who was punished together felt that their relationship suddenly became closer. The aura that was incompatible with other Gryffindors in Percy's body disappeared completely.
Even when the twins fired at him, it was just good-natured teasing, without the usual mockery.
On the side, Ron was killing everyone on the chessboard. Dean and Seamus, who were both opponents, scratched their heads and scratched their heads anxiously, but they had to endure the loud ridicule of the white chess piece. In fact, even the black chess piece they were in charge of was mocking their own player. Very dissatisfied, and from time to time sent friendly and cordial greetings to the intelligence of the two.
After saying hello to everyone, Harry found Hermione in the corner who was reading a book and asked in a low voice: "What happened to them?"
As he spoke, he formed a circle with his fingers and put them over his eyes.
"I conducted a spell test with Professor Scamander last night. I cast the spell for two hours." Hermione replied in the same low voice, embarrassed to be caught talking about others.
There were a lot of people in the lounge today, so they decided to call Ron to go to Hagrid to discuss it in detail.
Ron sat in his chair and didn't want to move. The chessboard was one of the few places where he could find a sense of superiority. Unfortunately, Dean and Dean had already escaped when Harry called him.
"I hope Hagrid hasn't gone out." Harry pressed the hat on his head. The cold wind mixed with snow particles hit his face like a knife.
"We should make sure before we come out," Ron muttered to the side, "it's too cold outside."
"I don't think Hagrid will go out in this weather." Hermione made up her mind to learn armor protection when she went back. Another gust of cold wind blew by, and the little witch couldn't help but hide behind Harry.
"Sorry, I wanted to ask Hagrid the day before yesterday, but Professor Scamander's words made me forget everything else."
"It's okay, Harry, we have plenty of time to figure this out." Ron shrank his neck, hesitated before continuing, "But Hagrid and Professor Scamander both believe that Snape is innocent. "
Harry was about to retort when Hagrid's loud voice came over.
"Oh, poor little guys, come in quickly, you look like you're freezing." He was playing with something outside when he spotted three little ones from a distance.
After entering the house, Hagrid took an umbrella, lit the fireplace, and boiled a pot of water.
"Hagrid, what are you doing outside in such a strong wind?" Harry warmed himself by the fire and felt like he was alive again.
"Ha, this little wind is nothing." Hagrid said that he was completely indifferent to the small cold wind. "Your Professor Scamander bought a kitten, and I am going to give him a small gift. He helped me a lot in the Forbidden Forest.”
"I know, it's a cat climbing frame." Hermione immediately became excited when talking about the kitten. "I have wanted to raise one for a long time, but unfortunately my parents have never agreed. They are so furry and cute. I am 6 years old. when……"
"Ahem" Seeing that Hermione couldn't hold her tongue, Harry had to interrupt her. It was almost lunch time and they still had something to ask.
"Hagrid, actually we suspected Snape for another reason. On Halloween, he tried to get around a big dog with three heads and steal something under the door panel."
Hagrid was looking at Hermione pinching her beard and smiling. Hearing this, he pulled off a strand of his beard and said, "Oh my God, how do you know about Lu Wei? Dumbledore told you at the beginning of school not to go near that room. .”
Hagrid stopped smiling at the cute juniors and stared at the three little ones seriously, "Listen, children, don't try to get close to Lu Wei, it will kill you."
Hagrid's eyes flickered as he spoke. He didn't know whether Dumbledore's decision was right or wrong. The three people in front of him were all good children. This big man who looked rough but had a kind heart really didn't want them to be in danger.
But Dumbledore was his savior and the wisest man in the world, and Hagrid didn't think he could make a mistake. It's just that acting is too difficult. Dumbledore should have given this task to Ani.
"But Harry almost died." Ron shouted excitedly again, as if he was the victim, "That old bat almost killed him on the pitch."
Seeing Ron's excited look, Harry's agitated mood suddenly calmed down. This feeling of being cared about made his nose sore. When someone is willing to pay for you for free, no matter how trivial it is, it is enough to heal the soul.
Hermione watched from the side, and the original grudge caused by Ron's foul mouth also dissipated at this moment.
Just like when you were in school, the person closest to you would not be the friend who would bring you food and stay up all night, but the brother who would not weigh the pros and cons when something happened, and roll up his sleeves and rush forward.
Few people can refuse to make friends with such a friend, even if he has various minor problems.
Hagrid looked at this scene with satisfaction, but thinking of Dumbledore's explanation, he still became serious.
"Ron, you have to be polite to the professor." After scolding Ron, Hagrid looked at Harry again.
"Harry, it seems you didn't listen to what Scamander said at all."
"No, I want to believe Professor Scamander, he is a good man." Thinking of the conversation that day, Harry hesitated. Aini's image was still very upright among these little wizards, especially the first-year wizards.
"But there were some things he didn't understand. My mother was mentioned that day, and I forgot to mention the room on the fourth floor."
Harry looked at Hagrid sincerely. A child who lives under someone else's roof would be very observant. He could feel the kindness of Hagrid and Ernie.
But he was also sure that Snape's disgust for him was definitely from the bottom of his heart, although sometimes when he looked at Snape, he did feel that his eyes were a little strange.
"It's almost time to eat, you should go back first, I have to give a gift to Ani. Remember, don't doubt Professor Snape anymore. Several professors already know about the things on the fourth floor, so don't pry anymore on the fourth floor. That's Dumbledore and Nick Flamel's business..."
"Oh my god."
Hagrid gave himself a slap in the face and sent the three little ones back to the castle.
After the three little ones walked away, Ani opened the door and walked in.
"Haha, wonderful acting skills, even I would believe it if I didn't know better."
"Stop teasing me. Well, he is such a good baby. Although he is not as cute as the Acromantula, he looks good."
As he spoke, a cat's head popped out of Aini's collar, and Hagrid carefully rubbed it with his fingers.
Hearing this, Aini rolled his eyes and couldn't complain about Hagrid's weird aesthetics. The cuteness in this big man's eyes probably includes soft hair or hard scales, a ferocious appearance, sharp claws, and extremely lethal power. and a ferocious character.
Creatures like cats can only barely touch the first line, while Acromantula can be called a pentathlon.
However, although it is not as good as cats, Acromantula is indeed quite cute, with eight slender long legs and a furry and cute look all over. Unfortunately, it is difficult to build an ecological circle, so they can only be kept free-range.
Aini secretly regretted it, and suddenly felt something was wrong in the atmosphere. He looked up and saw Hagrid covering his mouth with a handkerchief, with two big tears hanging from the corners of his eyes.
"Ani, Aragog didn't hurt anyone. Dumbledore and your father both checked the girl's body at that time. The Acromantula cannot cause that kind of injury."
"I know, there was no trauma, no poisoning, and he didn't die of suffocation." Aini stepped forward and patted Hagrid's thigh, but there was nothing he could do, he couldn't reach his shoulder.
"It seemed like the life disappeared from her in an instant. If it weren't for the lack of spell reaction, they almost thought someone had used a death curse on her."
"You know, Acromantulas have no magic-like abilities. They rely solely on webs and claws to hunt. They wronged me. If it weren't for Dumbledore, I would definitely die in Azkaban."
"I know you were wronged, Hagrid. I trust you would not harm any innocent person."
Not to mention that I was very fond of the character Hagrid when I was reading the book. After arriving at Hogwarts, they got along with each other and made them very good friends.
Although Aini cannot find out the basilisk now because he cannot explain the source of the information, it does not prevent him from making a promise to his friends.
"Hagrid, please believe me. I will definitely find the monster who killed Myrtle Warren and clear your name."
