"Who is Norbert?" Su Yu asked.
“That’s the dragon, the one I named!” Hagrid replied.
Su Yu was silent for a moment, then glanced at the coal ball and asked, "Shouldn't you name her something like Hammer or Steel Fork?"
"???"
Putting away his phone, Su Yu expressed great dissatisfaction with the name Norber. Everyone was terrible at naming things, so why did Hagrid get a normal name?
Arriving at Hagrid's hut, Su Yu knocked on the door first, only to be greeted by Harry. Su Yu slapped his forehead and said to Hagrid, "Why did you call them here too?"
Hagrid scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "They saw me when I went to the library to find a book, so... it's okay, Sue, they're my friends too."
Su Yu shook his head: "Of course it's related. The more people who know, the greater the risk of you being exposed."
"Professor Su Yu, we absolutely, absolutely will not let anyone else know about this!" Hermione was extremely indignant, standing up with her head held high, glaring angrily at Su Yu as if her dignity had been insulted.
Su Yu didn't want to waste words with these three loud conspirators, so he ripped off the collar from Coal Ball's neck and said, "Coal Ball, go outside and see if there are any other little wizards."
Coalball jumped out of Su Yu's arms and transformed into a two-meter-long jaguar, startling Hermione so much that she fell back into her chair. This was the first time Harry and the others had ever seen Coalball's true form.
Su Yu wasn't afraid of them finding out, since Dumbledore knew anyway. With him backing him up, Coal Ball would definitely be fine.
Logically speaking, Hagrid and Harry both have magical cell phones, making communication more convenient and private, so Malfoy shouldn't be able to track them down!
But reality is so illogical; a few minutes later, Coalball returned with Malfoy by the collar.
"Let me go, let me go! My dad is the school's headmaster, you can't treat me like this!" Malfoy kicked wildly, still trying to intimidate people by using his father's status.
However, upon entering the room and seeing Su Yu, Malfoy immediately wilted. After the incident at the last flight lesson, Malfoy had complained to his parents again, but was instead given a severe scolding by his father.
If they were in the castle, Malfoy might have dared to argue with Su Yu, but here, he was truly suffering in silence.
Seeing this kid, Su Yu was actually a bit of a headache. He couldn't really do anything to him, so he asked, "Young Master Malfoy, why are you outside?"
"I'm just passing by and need to use the restroom nearby!" Malfoy said.
Everyone present looked at Malfoy as if he were an idiot. He himself felt that the reason was a bit far-fetched, so he said, "I know that Potter and his men have a secret operation, so I came to check it out."
"What do you know? Don't lie, I have truth serum!" Su Yu said, pulling out a small bottle of potion.
Chapter 49 Scalpers Appear
When Malfoy saw the potion in Su Yu's hand, he instinctively shrank back. Little did he know, Su Yu was just trying to scare him, so he said:
“I…when I was at school, I heard Weasley shout, ‘Harry, Hagrid’s dragon is about to be born, we have to hurry!’”
"I don't know what they mean by dragon." As he spoke, he glanced unconsciously at the dragon egg on the table.
"But I figured they couldn't possibly get back to their dorms on time since they were out so late, so I decided to follow them so I could report them if I needed to..."
Su Yu looked at Hermione with a mocking gaze. Hermione's face flushed red, and her words, "We absolutely, absolutely will not let anyone else know about this!" still seemed to echo in her ears.
Ron and Harry hung their heads, while Hagrid looked pained. Now that Malfoy knew about the dragons, his plan to raise dragons was definitely going to fall through.
Su Yu looked at Malfoy again and said, "If dark wizards are found out about their secrets, in most cases, they will be killed to silence them. In a few cases, the thief will be turned into a living corpse puppet to be used."
"Ah!" It wasn't just Malfoy who screamed; Hermione, Harry, and Ron also looked at Su Yu with horrified expressions.
Su Yu changed the subject, saying, "You should be glad this is Hogwarts, and you should be glad I'm a professor, otherwise, that would be your fate!"
Malfoy nodded, his face pale. "I...I won't do it again. I won't tell anyone about what happened here!"
“I don’t believe you, Master Malfoy! Now you have two choices. First, I’ll give you the ’Oblivion’ spell and send you back to Hogwarts. Second, you can stay here and watch the dragon hatch, but you must make an unbreakable vow!” Su Yu offered two options.
Personally, Su Yu still hoped that Malfoy would choose the second path, since the Oblivion Curse has flaws, especially at Hogwarts, where Dumbledore might discover them at any time.
An unbreakable oath is much more secure, but its drawback is that both parties must be completely willing. Therefore, Su Yu offered the temptation of watching the dragon hatch.
Even a rich young master like Malfoy had never seen a dragon hatch, so his eyes lit up immediately: "I choose the second option!"
The rest was simple: Hagrid and Malfoy were the oath-takers, Su Yu was the witness, and Su Yu wrote the oath, eliminating any possibility of Malfoy playing word games.
Time passed second by second, and with a crack, the first crack appeared on the dragon egg. The children were all filled with curiosity, while Hagrid covered his mouth, so excited that he was about to cry.
Su Yu's focus was on the magic patterns on the dragon egg. Through his glasses, he could clearly see that the magic patterns on the surface of the dragon egg also shattered rapidly the moment the eggshell broke.
The event happened so suddenly that Su Yu didn't even have time to react. Could it be that the dragon egg became useless after the baby dragon was born?
Su Yu was suspicious and couldn't help but pick up the piece of eggshell that the little dragon had just opened and examine it carefully.
The magic runes have indeed disappeared a lot, but the dragon egg can still absorb energy from the outside world. Perhaps because some magic runes are missing, the range of energy absorption by the dragon egg is no longer limited to flames, but the absorption efficiency is much lower.
All the absorbed energy is converted into magic and stored in the eggshell. Once the eggshell is full of magic, it becomes an excellent tonic for the little dragon.
So that's how it is. Su Yu was relieved. As long as it could absorb energy and convert it into magic, that was good. Just as the baby dragon was about to eat the eggshell, Su Yu quickly stopped it and stuffed a piece of giant monster meat into its mouth.
The troll's flesh was also rich in magic, and after Snape's processing, it was very expensive. Su Yu spent ten Galleons to get a small bag of it, and he had to complain about Snape's stinginess.
Little Norber was attracted by the troll's flesh, and Su Yu took the opportunity to quickly collect the dragon eggs. With these dragon eggs, the server's magic source would be available. Now, it would be time to see if the magic stone could still bring him surprises!
Hagrid, already impatient, used the troll meat to lure little Norber, saying, "Come, come, come to Mommy, Mommy will give you meat to eat!"
Norber was indeed attracted and ate the jerky in Hagrid's hand. Hagrid took the opportunity to pick him up, but Norber sneezed and exhaled a breath of dragon's breath, almost making Hagrid lose his beard.
The children were all amused and laughed heartily. Even Malfoy seemed less of an eyesore. After all, he was only an 11-year-old boy. Now that they shared a secret, who knew if he would change in the future?
After Hagrid and Norbert had finished their intimate moment, Su Yu took out a steel needle and prepared to draw blood from Norbert. This blood needed to be injected into the collar to create a connection between the collar and Norbert.
"Su...this syringe is way too thick!" Hagrid hesitated, backing away while holding Norbert.
Hermione nodded in agreement: "Professor Sue, Norbert is still young, can't you use some smaller needles?"
Su Yu rolled her eyes. There was really nothing to say to these people who were so full of sympathy: "I don't care. Maybe we can wait until he's a little older. But I don't care if someone sees us like this."
Sure enough, these kinds of words are the most effective. Hagrid immediately backed down, carrying Norber to Su Yu's side. Amid Norber's wails, Su Yu drew a vial of blood.
Su Yu felt that although the needle had pierced Norbert's body, it had hurt Hagrid's heart. The guy was crying like a 400-pound child. Su Yu wondered if all burly men had a tender, girlish heart.
With Norber's blood, Su Yu immediately made Norber's collar on the spot. After putting on the collar, Norber's size shrank considerably, allowing him to hide in Hagrid's sleeve, looking like a dragon-shaped magical doll.
"Alright, this way even if you take him out, you can still say he's just a magical doll." Su Yu clapped his hands, indicating that he was very satisfied with his work.
Hermione interjected, "Professor Sue, so this big cat next to you is actually a magical creature?"
"Of course, a cat-leopard! A magical creature born with the ability to read minds and thoughts, it can understand what you're thinking!" Su Yu threatened them.
The young wizards immediately felt that their thoughts had been spied on, and quickly moved away from the coal lumps.
After finishing his business here, Su Yu went back. From that day on, he would come to Hagrid's place from time to time, partly to check on the effect of the collar on Norber.
Secondly, we also wanted to see if we could get some more dragon blood from Norber for experiments on how dragon eggshells could absorb energy and convert it into magic.
Besides experimental research, Su Yu would also visit the Magic Phone factory from time to time. Magic Phones are currently incredibly popular in the UK.
Every day, apart from reserving some inventory for the Stuart and Farley families, the factory sells as much as it produces.
With more and more wizards possessing magical phones, those wizards without magical phones seem rather low-class.
Some wizards, accustomed to this fast instant messaging, find writing letters to others troublesome and gradually lose contact with friends who don't have magical phones.
In order to avoid being squeezed out of their original circles, some pure-blooded nobles began to appear in the wizarding world, buying up magical phones at inflated prices.
Feller is a wizard born in Hogsmeade Village. He is thirty-five years old this year. His magic is weak and his talent can only be described as mediocre.
Although I got an A in the OWLs exam, I only got a poor T in the NEWTs exam.
After graduation, he was unable to enter the Ministry of Magic or a good magic factory, and could only do odd jobs in a small factory in Hogsmeade Village, living a very frugal life.
Last month, he saw many people using the Magic Phone and was very tempted. So, he gritted his teeth and spent almost all his savings to buy one.
The magic phone is indeed very useful. He and his friends can chat on it every day, and he has also joined some strange chat groups. Although he doesn't know the people in the groups, they are all very humorous and speak very pleasantly.
One day, as he passed by the Feather Experience Store, a well-dressed wizard emerged from inside. He was clearly furious, muttering curses as he walked away.
"Don't you know how to increase production capacity? This is my third time here, and you still tell me you have no stock. Where did all your goods go? You're not even willing to make money, are you pigs?"
Suddenly, the man looked at Feller and saw that he was holding a magic phone. His anger intensified, and he said, "You, come here!"
Feller was somewhat frightened. This man was clearly a high-ranking pure-blood noble, someone he absolutely couldn't afford to offend, but he dared not resist. So he approached and said, "Hello... is there anything I can help you with?"
“Give me your phone, and I’ll give you 80 Galleons!” the man said.
Feller was somewhat incredulous. He had only spent 50 Galleons when he bought the phone, but after only a week of use, he could sell it for 80 Galleons.
Without any hesitation, Fuller restored his phone to factory settings, completed the transaction with the nobleman, and happily took the money home.
Suddenly, an idea popped into Feller's mind: the Feather Magic Phone was selling out almost every day as soon as the store opened, and many people had been waiting for days without being able to buy one.
If I go to queue up now, buy a few more tomorrow, and then resell them to those who didn't get a phone, adding 30... no, no, 10 Gallons to each one, wouldn't I make a fortune?
Feller was tempted by this, but he soon realized that his entire fortune was only 90 Galleons, not even enough to buy two magic phones. Should he sell the house?
After much deliberation, Feller decided to take a gamble. That afternoon, he went to Gringotts and mortgaged his property in Hogsmeade Village for a loan of 1500 Galleons. When he got back, he started queuing up in front of the Feather Experience Store.
The next day, when the Feather Experience Store opened, Lupin received Feller, who immediately asked for 30 Magic Phones.
This terrified Lupin. The factory's daily production capacity was less than 45 units, and half of that had to be reserved for the United States and other European countries. Where would they get 30 units?
In the end, Feller got 21 magic phones and finished Lupin's entire day's sales plan in a minute. The wizards who lined up behind him were dumbfounded. They had been queuing for hours, only to be told it was over before it even started.
The wizards made a fuss, but the store was out of stock, so they were helpless. As soon as they left the Feather Experience Store, they found Feller standing outside the store with a smile on his face.
And he had a sign hanging around his neck that read: "Magic Phone, 60 Gold Galleons each, limited quantity, buy now!"
The wizards gasped in shock. Good heavens, in less than five minutes, this guy had tried to make a profit of 10 Galleons from them.
Some wizards left in anger, but others who were not short of money but were short of time simply bought it directly from Feller.
On this day, Feller sold all 21 magic phones and earned 210 Galleons, which was equivalent to what he earned from working odd jobs in the factory for 3-4 months.
Feller felt he had discovered a way to make money, so for the next few days he did the same thing every day. By reselling magic phones, he paid off Gringotts' loan in just 5 days and even made more than 1000 Galleons.
However, the good days didn't last long. Soon, others discovered this way and started vying for a place in line with Feller.
Later, Lu Ping felt that this would give customers a bad experience, so he reported it to Su Yu for a change. Su Yu's solution was simple: limit each person to buying only one phone at a time.
But where there's a will, there's a way. Feller quickly came up with a solution: he gathered some idlers and even goblins from Hogsmeade Village and had them line up for him, giving them three Galleons for every cell phone he owned.
When Su Yu arrived at the shop today, he happened to run into Feller's team and another group of wizards, who were confronting each other at the shop entrance over the issue of queuing.
Both sides had more than a dozen people, including wizards and fairies. The wizards each held a magic wand, while the fairies could not use wands, but they could still cast spells. Some of them also carried a dagger.
As the battle was about to break out, the customers who had been queuing were frightened and kept their distance. Lupin and Teemo stood guard at the store entrance, ready to prevent the battle from affecting the store.
Just then, whoosh! Several figures appeared using apparition, quickly surrounding the two groups of people. Leading them was Kingsley:
