Vol 2 Chapter 377: Hagrid's Story (2 in 1)

　　Because of the previous light rain, Bussbarton’s campus is now a bit wet.
Jon Hart was walking on an open path, and the noisy castle was getting farther and farther away-a few minutes ago, he took off his "borrowed" Boothbarton uniform and put it back in the old one. In the clothes room, and then walked out of Boothbaton’s castle. Starting
　　 Carefully fold the "Suspend Application" and put it in the suitcase...Next, what he needs to think about is the reminder that Mrs. Maxim gave him when he left...
　　 Although the other party's words are rather cryptic, Jon can also guess one thing-mostly related to Mrs. Maxim's identity as a hybrid giant.
　　Mrs. Maxim herself is very sensitive to her ancestry, so she cannot tell Jon about this... He has to go back to Hogwarts and ask Ruber Hagrid about this.
　　 found an open area, Jon stopped, and then stretched out his hand and gently pressed his shoulder.
　　 He touched the mark left by Fox on his shoulder.
　　 Then, Jon looked up to the north... After waiting for a few minutes, a golden light spot appeared from a distance, and then got closer and closer to him. An illusory, ethereal, mysterious, and exciting music also appeared from a distance.
　　 until he flew in front of Jon, he became the luxurious, bright red bird.
　　 Phoenix lowered his head to Jon, seeming to greet him.
　　 "Hello, Fox." And Jon smiled and greeted: "Long time no see!"

　　 On the night of September 1st, it was not just a school in Busbarton that was conducting their opening ceremony.
　　 Hundreds of miles to the north, in the Scottish Highlands, around a lake and a forest... In Hogwarts Castle, the eager school banquet is also underway.
　　 Hogwarts hunting ground guard, key keeper, and magic animal protection class teacher Professor Ruber Hager, was dining at the staff table at this time. Sitting on his left is Professor Minerva McGonagall, and on the other is Professor Sybil Trelawney; after sitting down, the tops of their heads are only between Professor Hagrid’s elbow and shoulder. .
　　 "Hey, Harry!" Seeing Harry Potter, who was full of blood, was late for more than half an hour and walked into the auditorium, Hagrid eagerly beckoned and greeted him.
　　 Professor Minerva McGonagall saw Hagrid suddenly making such a move, and couldn't help showing a dissatisfied expression.
　　 Because on the podium, Principal Albus Dumbledore is speaking:
"We are very happy to welcome a new teacher...Professor Horace Slughorn...He agreed to return to his old job as a potions teacher..." Professor Albus Dumbledore 'S voice is as kind as ever:
　　 The chunky Professor Slughorn quickly stood up and smiled perfunctorily at the students in all directions.
　　 "...Professor Severus Snape, he will be the teacher of Defense Against the Dark Arts..."
　　……
　　The dinner party ended soon.
　　 The students left the auditorium in twos and threes, while Professor Ruber Hager squeezed towards the long Gryffindor table.
　　 With a strong body, he can easily accomplish this.
　　 "Who knows if Voldemort needs someone at Hogwarts?" Harry Potter said angrily there.
"Do you suspect that Snape played for the mysterious man, Harry?" Hermione Granger frowned and explained, "Don't be stupid, Harry... We did this kind of stupidity in the first grade. Suspect, the later result proved that Professor Snape was on our side..."
　　 "But... Draco Malfoy himself said that he was helped by a Hogwarts teacher... who else was there besides Snape." Harry retorted.
　　 "Malfoy is just bragging, in front of Parkinson... bluffing, don't you know him, Harry?" Ron Weasley shook his head helplessly.
　　 "What are you talking about?" Hagrid rushed over happily, startling them.
　　 "No...nothing..." Harry thought for a moment, then shook his head.
　　 "Why are you late, Harry?" Hagrid asked loudly.
　　 "It was delayed in the car." Harry wiped the nosebleed again, and whispered, "What about you, Hagrid, I heard you were late too?"
"I was with Gropp before and forgot the time!" Hagrid said with a smile: "Now, he has a new home in the mountains, and Professor Dumbledore arranged it-a beautiful cave. He is better I was much happier in the forbidden forest..."
　　 "I chatted with him for a while, and Glop has made a lot of progress, very big...I'm thinking about training him as my assistant or finding him a girlfriend..."
　　 Facing Hagrid who was talking to himself here, Harry, Ron or Hermione closed their mouths with interest.
　　Walking while talking...
　　Unconsciously, they have come to the oak gate.
　　 "Well, we'll see you tomorrow, the first class after lunch, come here early!" Hagrid waved at them happily, and then walked towards the Forbidden Forest.

　　 But when he walked to the hut, Hagrid suddenly noticed--
　　 There seems to be some strange movement!
　　 Due to the blood of the giant, although Hagrid seems to be quite slow, in fact, his sensory abilities and crisis awareness are far stronger than ordinary wizards.
　　 "Who is it?" He shouted sharply, turning around, habitually preparing to reach out for his crossbow.
　　 However, since I was attending a banquet before, the crossbow arrows were not carried around.
　　 Hagrid had to take out his umbrella.
　　 "Wow! Wow! Wow!" Houndstooth Yaya also yelled toward the bushes.
　　 In the shadows, a figure soon appeared...A young man dressed as a student, God knows where he came from?
　　 But his face, Hagrid was somewhat familiar.
　　 "You are...you are..." he murmured.
　　 "Hello, Professor Hagrid, this is Christopher Patrick." Jon put on the iron ring and replied calmly.
　　 "Oh, right, Patrick!" Hagrid suddenly realized that he patted his forehead fiercely; obviously, he was starting to get a little impressed with his identity.
But after a while, he quickly reacted to another matter: "Wait Patrick...Aren’t you Busbarton’s exchange student? The one-year exchange period should have ended. How come you have appeared in Huo now? Gwarts?"
　　 Looking at Professor Hagrid’s suspicious eyes, Jon explained, "Mrs. Maxim, she called me... There is one thing that is not convenient for her to tell me, so she asked me to ask you."
　　 "It turned out to be Olim!" Hagrid's eyes began to light up, and he said hurriedly, "What's the matter... ask me!"
　　'S tone is a bit heroic and faintly manly.
"It's about the giantess Fried Ufa... She should be your mother, right?" Jon tried to make his voice not too embarrassing: "So, how did she give birth to you with your father? "
　　 Hagrid was stunned, the expression on his face changed slightly.
　　 For a moment, Jon thought he wanted to drive him away...
　　 But after a while, Ruber Hagrid nodded.
　　 "Go in and talk!" His voice seemed a little low.

　　 There is only one room in the cabin. There are ham and pheasant hanging on the ceiling, a copper teapot is used to boil water in the brazier, and a large bed is placed in the corner. The bed is made of rags.
　　 Ruber-Hagrid stomped around in the room, made tea with the huge copper teapot, and kept muttering something in his mouth. Finally, he placed a tea cup the size of a small bucket heavily in front of Jon. The tea inside was as dark as mahogany; besides, he brought a plate of his homemade rock cake.
　　 Joan took a sip of tea, ignored the "notorious" rock cake, and looked at Hagrid expectantly.
　　 "Yes, I think you are all very curious... about our origins, the origins of hybrids between giants and wizards like Olim and I..." Hagrid murmured as he sat across from Jon.
Because at the Christmas ball a year and a half ago, Hagrid inadvertently said in front of Rita Skeeter’s Animagus, the news that he was a "hybrid giant" spread throughout England... …So, he is now completely outspoken about his blood and identity.
　　 But--
"Professor Hagrid, I think I need to correct it a little bit." Jon said solemnly: "Our principal, Mrs. Maxim... She is just a witch with a relatively large natural skeleton. There is no evidence that she is also a hybrid giant. ."
　　 Hagrid was stunned, before realizing it, he nodded dumbly, "Yes, Patrick. You are right, Olim, she is not... come, eat rock cake."
　　 Then, he stuffed a hard cake the size of a pot into Jon's hand.
　　 "Where did I just say?" Then, Hagrid touched his head dullly: "Oh, yes... I know you are all curious about how the wizard and the giant produced offspring!"

　　 The expression on Jon's face was also slightly embarrassed.
　　 From a physiological point of view, if giants mate with ordinary humans, there are indeed certain problems...ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
The 16-foot tall Glop (approximately 4.8m) is considered a dwarf among giants... The true adult giants are between 20-30 feet tall; compared with humans, this is more than just There is a problem with toothpicks stirring up the tank...
"That was seventy years ago..." Hagrid murmured, "Fried Ufa, you are right, that is, my mother-I think Rita Skeeter has made the whole magic Jie knew about this... she was one of the few surviving giants in England at the time. Among the giants, she was very clever and notorious."
"And my father, he is a down-and-out wizard; to be honest, he's not smart..." Hagrid's tone gradually became heavy: "Because of poverty, he took over the hunt for the giant Fried from the Ministry of Magic. Ufa’s mission..."
"Obviously, my father's hunting plan was not successful. After all, he was not a brilliant wizard; and I said that my mother was very clever, so my father eventually fell into her trap... became her captive, she The spoils of..."
　　 "...Maybe you don't understand the habits of giants, after all, they are on the verge of extinction; for a very small number of female giants, they have the habit of squeezing spoils, and then use the spoils to produce offspring."
　　 "Squeeze spoils?" Jon repeated dumbfounded.
"You can understand it as a mating, although the difference is very big... but it's almost the same!" Hagrid said with some wrong preface: "Giants are generally stupid, but there are also a small group of them. They are smart and can Master some magic...I said before that my mother is very smart, because she is such a giant..."
"They are born with a kind of magic that can accurately tear a small part of the target's soul and combine with themselves..." Hagrid said with a serious face: "Then you can conceive a child without...well, mating! "
　　 Looking at Jon who had been petrified over there, Hagrid pointed to the rock cake in his hand: "Eat the cake, Mr. Patrick."
　　 Joan nodded dumbly, then lowered his head and took a bite, almost losing his teeth.
"The wizard is the best choice, because the wizard is the most powerful of all creatures, in the eyes of the giants." Then Hagrid smiled bitterly: "But few giants can catch a wizard~www.mtlnovel. com~ That’s why I saw Olim for the first time...No, no, I mean, there are very few hybrid giants like me!"
"My mother shut my father in a cave, and then there is me... My father is very kind and he is the best wizard. After seeing my birth, he no longer chose to abandon me, but chose to stay. Raised and raised me with my mother..."
　　 Hagrid said, wiping his eyes with the back of his hand.
　　 Then he got up and walked to the closet, opened a drawer, and took out a photo.
　　 There is a short wizard on it, with the same black eyes as Hagrid's, narrowed into a seam, he sat on Hagrid's shoulder and laughed happily. With reference to an apple tree next to him, Hagrid was seven or eight feet tall, but his face was young, full, smooth, and without a beard—he looked eleven years old at most.
　　 "This was taken shortly after I entered Hogwarts," Hagrid said hoarsely, "Father was so happy... He thought I couldn't be a wizard, you know, because my mother..."
　　 "...As for my mother, let's not talk about it... A few years have made her tired of me and my father. She left us when I was very young; this is the nature of giants."

　　 Hagrid was still serious at first, but soon became crying.
　　 But Jon didn't pay attention to this, because he heard one of the important messages.
　　 Jon took a deep breath and asked, "Professor Hagrid, may I ask... is your mother still alive?"
