Chapter 271: Help (modified)

Although it was only the first day after arriving at school, Allen maintained his own pace of life and went to the library to enrich himself after dinner.
The library that just started school is relatively deserted, with only a few people scattered in this huge library.
After politely saying hello to Mrs. Irma Pins, the Hogwarts librarian, Allen saw the Hermione Granger buried in the high pile of books at a glance.
From Ellen's perspective, Hermione with disheveled hair was like a fluffy cat, rubbing her head in the pile of books.
He couldn't help but smiled and walked straight to Hermione's side.
"Hermione, can I sit down?" Allen asked.
"Of course, please feel free." Hermione raised her head and smiled when she saw Alan.
Alan looked at Hermione in surprise, her eyes were red and swollen, and she had obviously cried bitterly. His eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and his face was pale, describing him as haggard.
"Have you not taken a good rest this holiday?" Allen couldn't help but soften his voice, "I remember your homework was done before the holiday!"
Allen's eyes slid across the pile of books on the table.
"The Prohibition of Animal Cultivation and Experimentation Order, "Prohibited Traded Items", "Wyzencamore Charter of Power"..."
Allen flipped through these dusty files one by one, and instantly understood why Hermione was busy.
Alan looked at Hermione, admiring from the bottom of his heart. Although the the opposite side sometimes seems arbitrary, and is prone to rushing in the face of emergencies, and sometimes even a little complacent, she has a strong logical thinking, wit and clever, likes to delve into academics, and she is lazy and seems a little indifferent to others. Wenclaw is different. She has the fearful patience and ability to act, and she is so kind that even sometimes people think that there are some Virgins... As long as she recognizes the right thing, she will immediately take action and complete it. Efforts—just like now, for Hagrid's eagle-headed horse-winged beast, I started to prepare for Hagrid’s defense alone.
"Do you want to help Hagrid win and deal with the dangerous animal committee lawsuit?" Allen asked, but his tone was very positive.
Hermione’s eyes showed a light of admiration: "Ellen, you guessed the cause of it all at once. Yes, I want to help Hagrid so that he can successfully defend Buckbeak."
"Where are Harry and Ron?" Allen did not forget that the reason Hermione refused to go on vacation with her was because she wanted to be with Harry.
Hermione bit her lip and her eyes turned red. She thought that Harry and Ron might never want to be friends with her again because of Firebolt. The female roommates in the dormitory are not considered to like her either, and although Ginny gets along well during the holidays, she is not in her grade after all... Now, it seems that only Alan is a friend!
The strength and defensiveness she maintained was completely vanished when she met Allen's caring eyes.
"Ah, it's my fault, I shouldn't mention them. With my knowledge of Harry and Ron, these two guys obviously won't have the patience to look at such a boring tome." Allen patted high. Books stacked high.
"Hermione, you are really the most diligent and patient little witch I have ever seen." Allen exclaimed.
"Ellen, I'm just a little clever, and I haven't figured it out yet." Hermione wiped the corner of her eye and said embarrassedly.
"Well, Hermione, I thought, would you like to hear what my friend thinks?" Allen hesitated, organizing the language.
It seems that Hermione has been busy with Hagrid's affairs throughout the holiday. What he wants to say next will make her sad? However, he couldn't bear to watch Hermione work so hard, but the result was unsatisfactory in the end.
"Of course, Ellen, I would love to hear your thoughts. You are the smartest, wisest, and most knowledgeable little wizard I have ever seen." Hermione smiled relaxedly, revealing two front teeth.
She seemed to realize it all at once, and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hands.
Allen thought that such Hermione was very cute, and his hesitation just now flew out of the sky, jokingly: "It's not because I am the first grade, you said that."
"Of course not." Hermione felt that chatting with Alan was always so easy and pleasant, which was very different from the feeling when she was with Harry and Ron. Harry and Ron always needed her supervision, her help—and they were particularly impatient with her because of this, but Alan was always helping her unconditionally.
"Actually, Hermione, I think it is very unwise for you to spend such a large amount of energy on these files." Allen said sternly.
Hermione raised her head and listened carefully. She restrained her desire to argue. She knew that Alan was not an aimless person.
"First of all, you are not proficient in various laws and regulations; secondly, even if you spend a lot of energy to figure out these rules and regulations, you may not be able to write a touching defense..." Allen looked at Hermione's expression found that she was looking at him intently, without a trace of injury.
So Allen continued: "Third, even if your defense is very delicate, can you make sure that Hagrid remembers these words completely, and expresses them clearly when he is emotional?"
Obviously, Allen knew that Hagrid, who had the blood of a giant, was weak in controlling emotions.
Hermione was thinking about Alan's words seriously. Although it sounds bad, the truth in it is irrefutable.
"Hermione, you're busy like this, I'm afraid it won't do any good besides making yourself exhausted," Allen said.
"What can I do? I don't know how to help Hagrid." Hermione was a little sad, she just wanted to do her best to help her friend.
Allen said comfortingly: "Actually, you have done a good job, at least you should be much better than Harry and Ron."
"But, it's still useless~EbookFREE.me~ isn't it?" Hermione bit her lip, and she didn't know what else she could do to help Hagrid besides checking the information and writing the defense draft.
"Perhaps, we can hire a defense lawyer for Hagrid." Allen suggested.
"This is a good idea!" Hermione's eyes lit up. The full-time lawyer can not only help Hagrid complete the defense draft, but also accompany Hagrid to face the dangerous animal disposal committee in court.
"However, this may require a lot of money. Hagrid... shouldn't have that much money." Hermione worried again.
"I think, as a friend, I am willing to support Hagrid to get through this difficult time." Alan touched his nose and said generously.
"Oh, Ellen, you are so kind. I also have some Jin Jialong here, although not many, but... Hermione is a little ashamed, she knows her own Jin Jialong, maybe even hiring a lawyer for a few days Not enough.
"Of course you can. Just do your best." Allen blinked and didn't rashly reject the little witch's kindness. At this time, letting the other party participate is much better than Draco's style. "But, Harry and Ron, you don't need to tell them. You know Ron's family background. Although Harry has money, the money needs to support him to graduation, and Dumbledore probably won't agree with him. Lee spends money on this."
Hermione nodded, she thought Allen was very thoughtful.
The school resumed classes the next day. On this cold and humid January morning, the last thing everyone wants is to spend two hours on the field.
Unexpectedly, in order to make them happy, Hagrid made a bonfire with salamanders inside.
This class was very interesting. The students collected firewood leaves and kept the fire burning. Those lizards that like flames jumped around in the crackling firewood.
