Magic Journey from Hogwarts

boom! boom! boom!

There was a hasty knock on the door outside.

The four of them turned their heads to look, only to see a chunky figure swaying on the curtain.

"Merlin's beard!" Ron said speechlessly. "This old witch came here by accident!"

"Now is not the time to talk about that." Hermione said nervously, "Harry, I remember you wearing an invisibility cloak, right?"

"Get in quickly." Harry hurriedly took out the invisibility cloak, and covered himself, Hermione, and Ron in it.

The three squeezed to hide in the corner, and gave up the middle position.

Hagrid opened the door, and Umbridge stood in the doorway, wearing a pink sweater and coat, with a hypocritical smile on her face and a flash of dismissive contempt in her eyes.

"Well... you're Hagrid, right?"

"Yes, who are you?"

"Dolores Umbridge." Umbridge entered the cabin, pacing and looking inside.

The three of Harry didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that she would notice them.

"I don't mean to be rude, but who the hell are you?" Hagrid asked, eyes wide.

"The senior undersecretary of the Ministry of Magic who is in charge of Minister Fudge is now a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts and a senior Hogwarts investigator." Umbridge said triumphantly, "As a senior investigator, I have the right to know The reason why the teacher asked for leave, so tell me where have you been for the past two months?"

"Well, I, I actually went to recuperate." Hagrid hesitated.

"Convalescence?" Umbridge sneered disdainfully.

Did this big fool take her for a fool?The half-blood giant's physical fitness is not generally good, and such an absurd reason is embarrassing.

"I gotta enjoy some fresh air."

"That's right! It must be difficult for the gamekeeper to breathe the fresh air." Umbridge smiled meaningfully. "If I were you, I wouldn't get used to it. In fact, I wouldn't unpack at all."

After speaking, Umbridge turned and walked towards the door without waiting for Hagrid to respond.

Snapped!

The door was closed, and the three of Harry waited for a while to confirm that she had really left before lifting the invisibility cloak.

"That's an indication," Hermione said grimly, "She wants you to pack up and leave.

Hagrid, Tuesday is your class, you must be prepared, this matter is very serious, you must not use too dangerous..."

"Got it, got it." Hagrid waved his hand impatiently, "What you said is exactly what Aaron said.

But don't worry, I've saved some animals for your owl year, they are special. "

The three of them thumped in their hearts. Hagrid's confident look made them feel uneasy. After all, he also behaved like this when he took out the Hippogriff and the Blast-tailed Whelk.

"It's not dangerous!" Harry asked a little nervously.

"Of course not dangerous, they can take care of themselves and will not attack humans."

"Hagrid, it's really not a joke this time." Hermione said very seriously, "You have to pass Umbridge's inspection. Listen to me this time, Panglock, the assassin will be much better."

"No, they're not really funny.

The things I prepared are much more miraculous, and I may be the only one who has domesticated them in the whole of England. "

"Oh! Why can't you understand!" Hermione said anxiously and frustrated, "The important thing is not to be interesting, but to be safe.

If you don't want to get caught by Umbridge, teach the usual animals that are sure to be on the exam. "

Hagrid yawned and gave the three of them a big hug, "Believe me, I really prepared something really good this time."

Hearing this, the three of them were helpless for a while.

They still felt that this matter could not be done by Hagrid's temperament, but they obviously couldn't persuade them!

"What should we do?" Ron said gloomily on the way back, "He doesn't seem to have listened to our words."

"There are still two days left." Hermione took a deep breath, "If possible, I can persuade him to change his mind, and if it is impossible, I can help him check it out before the official class begins."

Harry and Ron looked at each other with a look of confusion in their eyes.

"Are you hesitating?"

"No, no, no, no, we didn't mean that," said Harry hastily, "but you know our situation."

"The homework is almost piled up." Ron said bitterly, "There is also the Quidditch match. Although Harry grabbed the Golden Snitch, I, the goalkeeper, did not do well."

"Slightly?" Hermione looked at him speechlessly, "Are you sure?"

Ron felt ashamed, blushed and lowered his head, "Okay! It's very bad, okay!

Anyway, Angelina gave me a slap in the face and told us to double down on training. "

"Fortunately, because the Quidditch season is here, DA temporarily suspends classes, otherwise the two of us may not be able to bear it."

Hermione almost laughed out of anger, she didn't expect these two guys to be so unreliable, and they lost the chain at a critical moment.

"Okay! Looks like I'm the only one helping Hagrid."

"You can ask Aaron for help," Harry said. "He doesn't need training, and he doesn't have as much homework as we do."

"I don't have much hope. I know him too well. It's the limit for him to come here today to remind Hagrid."

"You're going to treat it a little differently. It's fine for him to come over and remind us, and it's just for us..." Ron said eccentrically, but his voice stopped abruptly in the middle of speaking.

"Do you have an opinion?" Hermione smiled warmly, but it made Ron shiver uncontrollably.

"Uh...no, how dare I have an opinion!"

However, Hermione still found Aaron in the library the next day, "Come and see Hagrid with me."

"No." Aaron refused very simply, "I know what you are worried about, but I have reminded you of everything that needs to be reminded."

"Just reminding is not enough." Hermione said seriously, "We have to figure out what he wants to teach, and we'd better give him some advice, so we can't be caught by Umbridge."

"Haha!" Aaron couldn't help laughing, "That's useless, no matter how perfect your preparation is, it won't stop the critical Umbridge.

Besides, we both reminded him that if he persists in his own way, it will be his own fault. "

"But...you have to try!"

"Come on, I'm optimistic about you!"

The corners of Hermione's mouth twitched slightly. Although she was mentally prepared before coming here, she still couldn't help being a little disappointed when she was rejected, but Aaron's next words swept away most of the haze in her heart.

"But I will try my best to help him. After all, I don't like to owe people anything."

......

In the Protection of Fantastic Beasts class on Tuesday, Hagrid came to the students with half a dead cow on his shoulders, but Professor Graplan did not show up.

Students who liked Hagrid cheered enthusiastically, while some students were depressed.

After all, in their eyes, Professor Graplan is a really conscientious and good teacher, and the most important thing is that there is no danger in her class.

Hagrid led the students into the Forbidden Forest and said as he walked, "We have lessons in the woods because they like the dark."

"What likes darkness?" Draco asked with some horror.

"That's too much." Aaron snapped his fingers solemnly, "Vampires, leopard cats, nocturnal beasts..."

"Wait, stop talking." Draco hurriedly interrupted, "Let me take it easy."

"I'm really not talking about you. Your courage needs to be exercised."

"Can it be my fault?" Draco said gloomily, "I wasn't afraid in Professor Graplan's class, but he...look at the half-dead cow he's carrying on his shoulders.

Not long after it was slaughtered, there is still blood on the meat, so it can't be for us to eat! "

The students seemed to think of something when they heard Draco say that.

Their faces were slightly pale, and they kept a little distance from Hegra as much as possible.

"You guys." Harry looked at the students who retreated, and suddenly became out of breath, especially since there were quite a few Gryffindors among them.

"Potter, I don't think there is a problem with what I said." Draco was rarely serious, "Who knows what carnivorous beast he will bring.

According to me, he can be a gamekeeper, and Graplan is more suitable for this professor than him. "

Harry glared at him angrily, but had nothing to say.

Because he knew that not only Draco thought so, many people thought so, and even he recognized Professor Graplan in his heart, but if he had to choose, he would support Hagrid [-]%.

Harry walked up to Hermione and asked worriedly, "Is there any problem with this class?"

Hermione was silent for a while, "I don't know either."

"No, didn't you say you wanted to help him check?"

"I tried my best, but he wasn't in the house when I looked for him." Hermione sighed deeply, "After he finally came out of the Forbidden Forest, he didn't tell me anything, saying he was going to We were pleasantly surprised."

"I didn't see the surprise, but the shock is real." Ron said with some horror, "Malfoy is right, we are probably going to learn about carnivores in this class, and their appetites are not small. The kind that eats half a cow."

Hermione and Harry's mood sank immediately, and now they only hoped that Umbridge would not be able to come if something happened temporarily, otherwise Hagrid would be in danger this time.

Hagrid stopped at the place where the forest was thickest. It had snowed heavily these two days, but there wasn't even a single snowflake to be seen here.

"The animals we're going to study today are very rare."

"Have you tamed them?" Draco asked with some fear.

"of course."

Many people are skeptical of this statement. They look around carefully, as if they are waiting for an attack that may appear at any time.

"Uh... don't be so nervous." Hagrid put the dead cow down. "They will be attracted by the smell of meat, but I'd better call them."

I saw him shake off his hair, cleared his throat, and made a strange sound.

This voice kept echoing in the secluded forest. Many students did not dare to speak, but felt the fear spread in their hearts.

A few minutes later, Aaron heard shallow footsteps, turned his head and saw a huge black horse with exposed bones and black wings came out of the darkness.

"It turned out to be it!" Aaron suddenly said, "Don't be afraid, this magical animal will be very docile after being tamed."

"Can you see?" Hagrid asked in surprise.

"Anyone who has killed someone can see it." Aaron said indifferently, but just after he finished speaking, he realized that he had said something wrong, "Well... I may have exaggerated, I mean I have seen life Anyone who passes through his arms can see it."

"See what?" Hermione asked puzzled.

Aaron shrugged and pointed to the half-dead cow on the ground.

hiss!

The Gryffindor and Slytherin students gasped, seeing pieces of meat being peeled off the bones with clear bite marks on them.

Even though all the people here are wizards, seeing this weird scene, I still can't help feeling terrified.

"This is a Thestral." Aaron explained, "We are very familiar with it. After all, they have been pulling carriages every time we come to Hogwarts Castle since the second grade."

"But it is unlucky, very unlucky." Parvati said in horror, "Professor Trelawney said that it will bring all kinds of terrible disasters to those who see them."

"This is nonsense." Aaron laughed dumbly. "If that's the case, Hagrid who tamed them would have died so many times."

"Can you use me as an example?" Hagrid said, "But the unlucky things are just superstitions. They are very clever and useful. They mainly help the school to pull the carriage. Dumbledore also uses it when he doesn't want to apparate." Go out."

"Mount!" The image of Dumbledore riding a Thestral appeared in Aaron's mind, and he shook his head amusedly, "I always thought he was riding a phoenix!"

"Fox is powerful, but letting it go is overkill."

"maybe!"

"Who else can see them but Aaron?"

Harry was the first to raise his hand, then Neville, and a Slytherin.

"Um... sorry to interrupt." Draco stood up and said, "You're giving lessons to dozens of people instead of a few, and most of us can't see them."

"Cough! Cough!"

There was a sudden cough, and Umbridge walked over with a clipboard in his hands.

"Oh, hello." Hagrid said with a half-smile.

"I think you should have received my note, and I will come to your class."

"Got it." Hagrid nodded. "Today we're going to talk about Thestrals, but I don't know if you can see them."

"what?"

"It's thestrals, horses with wings." Hagrid thought she couldn't see it, and flapped his thick arms like wings twice.

Umbridge frowned, and then wrote on the clipboard: "Use clumsy gestures."

"Hagrid just wanted to describe it clearly." Aaron said flatly, "He didn't make any gestures before you came.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you're mentally handicapped and need to gesture to understand what he's saying. "

puff!

Some of the students couldn't help laughing, and the other part couldn't help but turned away so hard that Umbridge couldn't see it.

Gryffindor really didn't like this Defense Against the Dark Arts professor sent by the Ministry of Magic. He felt that she was bullying others and using power for personal gain, and Slytherin only respected her face. Interesting class, but this professor obviously can't teach them anything.

A look of displeasure flashed across Umbridge's face at the harsh laughter, but she quickly suppressed it.

She gave Aaron a smile, and then crossed out the word "use clumsy gestures" on the clipboard. If she insisted on keeping this comment now, it would be disrespectful to her IQ.
