The years of welding at Hogwarts

Watching the reckless child disappear around the corner of the stairs, Hagrid raised his arm to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he didn't find anything unusual.

He turned happily and stepped into the corridor on the right that was designated as a restricted area by Dumbledore, humming an unknown ugly song.

"Lu Wei, I'm here to see you!"

Before they even got close to the little room where Fluffy was staying, Hagrid's huge voice

It reached Lu Wei's ears from far away.

Lu Wei, who was originally dozing off, suddenly jumped up from the ground as if a spring was installed under his butt. He turned around the room excitedly, wagging his tail and whimpering from time to time.

With the sound of the door lock being unlocked, the wooden door creaked open, revealing Hagrid behind the door, and...

Noah behind Hagrid.

"So its name is Lu Wei."

The sudden sound frightened Hagrid so much that he froze in place for a moment. He just stared blankly at the little boy who was almost knocked down by him just now, walking past him and straight towards Fluffy.

"Don't go over there!" Hagrid yelled after reacting, "Danger!"

But what he didn't expect was that Louie didn't do as he imagined, using his strong and powerful front paws to pin Noah to the ground and bite off the other's crispy head.

The ferocious three-headed dog Lu Wei just wagged his tail excitedly, and the excitement on the three huge dog faces had condensed into sticky saliva that overflowed from his mouth.

Seeing Noah skillfully take out three large bones from the magic circle and stuff them into Fluffy's three big dog mouths, Hagrid's brain froze for a moment.

What happened?

What happened?

……

After feeding the big dog's three heads with big bones, Noah turned his head and asked, "Is this big dog yours, Hagrid?"

After wiping his greasy hands on Lu Wei's dog hair, Noah took the initiative to extend his hand to Hagrid.

"Hello, my name is Noah Shafrin, a first-year student at Slytherin House."

What, what is going on here?

Hagrid, who hadn't figured out the situation yet, could only shake hands with Noah in confusion. Even though he didn't like Slytherin students very much, strangely enough, he didn't feel any ill will towards Noah in front of him.

"You... hello."

"This is a three-headed dog, right? Is it your pet?"

The half-blood giant nodded dumbly, the expression on his face like an elementary school student who was caught doing something bad, but mixed with some other emotions.

For example...

Gouzi, you have changed!

How did you hook up with that wild man outside! ?

Noah glanced at Lu Wei behind him, and then at Hagrid who was at a loss.

"The three-headed dog is one of the most dangerous magical animals in the wizarding world and is strictly prohibited from being kept by the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures of the Ministry of Magic."

"According to the laws of the Ministry of Magic, if you do not obtain a breeding permit and register it with the Ministry of Magic legally, you must kill it according to the law."

With every word Noah spoke, Hagrid's face turned paler.

"By the way, does Professor Dumbledore know about this?"

Despite his pale face, Hagrid relaxed a little when Noah mentioned Dumbledore.

"Professor Dumbledore knows that it was he who asked me to borrow Fluffy to watch over him..."

Hagrid suddenly closed his mouth, looking angry as if he had said something wrong, but his anger was not directed at Noah, but at himself.

Noah, who already knew the answer, wisely did not dwell on this topic any further.

"That's good, but has Dumbledore filed a report with the Ministry of Magic?"

Hagrid's heart had just been relieved when it rose to his throat again. "He didn't tell me about this, but I think he should have filed it, right?"

He spoke in a hesitant tone that he himself was unsure of.

In response to Hagrid's words, a subtle arc appeared on Noah's lips that Hagrid could not detect. "One of my roommates, his father is a senior official in the Ministry of Magic."

Noah is very skilled in using the skill of "making friends out of nothing".

"His father works at the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. From what I have learned from him, no wizard has recently applied to the Ministry of Magic for permission to keep a three-headed dog."

Hagrid rubbed his hands, which were at least eighty yards big, nervously. "How could it be..."

But he soon figured it out.

Dumbledore asked him to borrow Fluffy so that he could help guard the Philosopher's Stone.

The Philosopher's Stone, also known as the Philosopher's Stone, was created by Nicolas Flamel, the most accomplished alchemist in the world today.

It has a kind of energy that everyone dreams of, which can turn stone into gold.

It can also...

Make the elixir of life.

Fluffy is guarding such a valuable treasure for Dumbledore, so the importance of confidentiality can be imagined. It is absolutely impossible for Dumbledore to casually reveal Fluffy's existence to other people.

Even if it is filed with the Ministry of Magic.

Who can guarantee that there is no traitor in the Ministry of Magic?

The heavily guarded Ministry of Magic is exactly the opposite of what it appears. In fact, the Ministry of Magic, which is crowded with people and eyes, has been infiltrated by various pure-blood families for a long time and is no different from a sieve.

None of those parasites who only know how to suck blood from the people are reliable.

Just when Hagrid figured this out, Noah in front of him finally revealed his true intentions.

"Hagrid, you don't want the people in the Ministry of Magic to know that you secretly raise a three-headed dog, right?"

Haige twirled his shaggy beard nervously.

"I...actually, uh...this is..."

Noah patted the other's knee, uh,

With his height, he could only capture the knees of this mixed-blood giant who was 3.8 meters tall.

"Professor Dumbledore must need Fluffy to look after something very important for him, so he won't take the initiative to report this to the Ministry of Magic."

He stretched out his foot and stepped on the trapdoor under Fluffy's feet. The hollow thumping sound made Hagrid's face look even uglier.

"This is a secret between us. I won't tell anyone about Lou Williams, but you have to keep it a secret for me that I sneaked into the restricted area."

"I will keep it a secret!"

As soon as Noah finished speaking, Hagrid patted his chest impatiently.

"That's good."

Noah squatted beside Lu Wei, touched his big furry head, and then turned his head back.

"Regarding Lu Wei's matter, I have a suggestion."

"what?"

"As I just said, my roommate's father is a senior official in the Ministry of Magic. Perhaps we can ask him for help and ask him to help us get the three-headed dog breeding license."

There was a sly look in Noah's eyes, "This way you can raise Lu Wei without worry."

But Hagrid's face once again showed an ugly look, "No, no, no, the Ministry of Magic will not approve my application..."

"why?"

"Because I have a criminal record. I was in Azkaban, because..."

After hesitating for a long time, Hagrid seemed to have made up his mind. "Because it is illegal to keep magical animals."

"Is that so?" Noah's expression became a little embarrassed at this moment.

He sighed, "That's not going to be easy. Even with my friend's father's position in the Ministry of Magic, it's difficult to get a permit for someone with a criminal record."

Hagrid looked dejected and frustrated. "Yeah..."

After pretending to be in deep thought for a moment, Noah suddenly raised his head in surprise and said, "I have a way, but the premise is that you can agree with me to do this."

"any solution?"

"Register Fluffy's breeder in my name!"

Noah hid the cunning in his eyes very well, "After this, I will hire you to raise Fluffy for me, so that I can bypass the restrictions of the Ministry of Magic."

"We can prepare two contracts, one for the Ministry of Magic to see, and the other one is only known to you and me."

Although he felt something was wrong, Hagrid scratched the back of his head sheepishly.

"Is this okay? If Lu Wei gets into trouble, it will cause you trouble."

After thinking for a while, Hagrid added one more sentence.

"As for the contract, there's no need for that, right? I can trust you, right?"

"Why not? You can trust me, Hagrid. For Fluffy's sake."

Noah held his chin up, "And don't worry about Lou Wei getting into trouble. I have money, lots of money. If he gets into trouble, I can cover it."

"In addition to money, Professor Snape is also my adoptive father. Even if I encounter problems that cannot be solved with Galleons, he can use his connections to help me deal with some troubles that I cannot solve with money."

Well, this is a big dog owner.

Hagrid just now remembered that some time ago he had heard other professors in the school gossiping about Snape adopting a boy.

Seeing that Noah looked like a second-generation rich man with both wealth and background, Hagrid had no other reason to refute for a moment.

What's more, he also wanted Lu Wei to be able to live freely in the vast world outside, instead of curling up in such a dark little room like now.

"When Fluffy no longer needs to help Professor Dumbledore guard his treasure, tell me and I'll find someone to help get a breeding license for it."

Hagrid nodded vigorously, his tone full of gratitude, "Then thank you for your help."

"You're welcome. Lu Wei and I are friends, and I want to see him live happily."

When saying this, Noah used great willpower to restrain the urge to laugh out loud.

As expected, Hagrid, you are still too naive.

Noah tilted his head and looked at the big tin bucket in Hagrid's hand, which was full of bloody raw meat of some unknown creature.

"Can I feed it with you?"

"sure!

Chapter 61 First there was Ron, then there was Heaven

On Monday morning, when the students had just woken up, they saw two new notices on the bulletin board in the common room of their respective colleges.

The notice should have been quietly posted on the bulletin board in the lounge after nightfall yesterday, and the bulletin board was clearly empty before I went to sleep last night.

There are two notices above.

A notice for students in their second year and above, mainly about the recruitment of new members for the college Quidditch team.

The other notice is closely related to the first-year students——

During this week, the first-year students at Hogwarts will have the most anticipated course of this semester:

Flying lessons.

All through breakfast, every young wizard from a wizarding family was chattering about Quidditch and bragging about their glorious flying experiences.

These include but are not limited to: having an ace dogfight with a dragon over England, flying shoulder to shoulder with the Muggles' rockets, and accidentally shooting down a Muggle jet fighter with a Quaffle...

Even a young wizard from a Muggle family would not be able to resist bragging about his experience of flying a Muggle helicopter, saying that it was much more difficult than a flying broomstick.

Neville had never ridden a broomstick before.

Sitting at the Hufflepuff dining table, listening to the boasting of the young wizards around him, he seemed quite humble due to his lack of confidence.

He does not share the same sorrows and joys as humans; he just thinks they are noisy.

Hermione's performance was not much better than Neville's.

Her mind was not on eating at all. She just randomly picked at the food on the plate and ate much faster than usual.

Although she was sitting in the auditorium, her mind had already wandered to the library.
