Hogwarts 1991

Chapter 552 The 'Art' of Trading

"Black is right, if Ruburt sees you like this, he won't be happy "Hagrid!" Dumbledore hugged a flinging Fang, scratched its chin, and said.

Hearing this, Hagrid couldn't help sobbing,

Tears rolled down his cheeks and seeped into his shaggy beard.

"Dad? Yes, he would be very happy to know that I became a professor. I can't just lose this job..."

Hagrid stood up and walked to the wardrobe, opened a drawer, and took out a framed photo. There was a short wizard on it, his eyes were exactly the same as Hagrid's, they were also very black and squinted.

Hagrid in the photo looked no older than eleven or twelve years old... the whole face was very young, full and smooth, without a hint of beard.

Hagrid was seven or eight feet tall, though. (Compared to the apple tree next to it)

The smiles of the two are very similar, and both are very bright.

Hagrid stared at the photo with tears in his eyes, "Harry, you haven't seen my father yet, have you? No, this is, "

Harry took the photo, and McGuffin, Ron, and Hermione leaned over to watch it together.

Hagrid murmured, "Yes, it doesn't matter what other people say..."

At this time, Sirius interjected again: "However, this matter can't go on like this... McGuffin Albert, can't you use your crazy mind and think of a way?"

Shir!
'Isn't it? '

McGuffin sighed inwardly.

It seems that Sirius is still very concerned about the 'accident' in that cave not long ago.

"Let me say forget it? Sirius, you haven't seen the performance of that egomaniac. It's exactly the same as that Gerald Lockhart. If he has something to do with it... Maybe it will make things worse." Ron said with a look of disgust.

The corner of Dumbledore's mouth twitched, and he should have thought of Donald Eastfork's amazing performance when he announced that Ilvermorny's student had become a warrior.

Harry didn't look too good either.

"Yes, Hogwarts can't be shamed because of my affairs... Even if my affairs are exposed, it doesn't matter!" Hagrid raised his head from his father's photo, his eyes sparkled, "I will persevere, and I can't let my father down. However, my greatest hope is you...Harry!"

"I?"

"That's right? It's you... From the first time I hugged you, you reminded me of myself. Both parents are dead, and there is nothing to rely on... and the Dursleys... Forget it, let's not mention that family of idiots."

Hagrid shook his big head, "Look at you now...a Hogwarts warrior...you deserve this status and status with honor!"

"I hope you can win...Harry, you have to win the game, defeat those pure-blood wizards, defeat those who talk about things. Prove that a person's birth is not important...Good family, a wizard blood is not everything."

"Harry, win!"

Hagrid looked at Harry very seriously and said very earnestly.

Harry is a bit dumb, he wants to win too,

But the Top Ten Tournament is to compete with ten outstanding wizards from all over the world, and I haven't even learned all the courses of the fourth grade.

This……

He really couldn't say that he could win, so he couldn't agree to it.

He looked at Dumbledore and Sirius.

But unexpectedly, Dumbledore smiled and nodded, "Yes, Hagrid, that's really good of you!"

"However, we shouldn't put so much pressure on Harry. As the headmaster of Hogwarts and the main organizer of the Big Ten Tournament... I shouldn't be biased, but it won't be a problem to say a few more words to encourage morale,"

Dumbledore said meaningfully, "Harry, you should pay more attention to what you are good at... Your courage and friendship are your rare wealth."

"Besides, although I, as the headmaster of Hogwarts, want to minimize my interference with a warrior, the fact that the Ilvermorny warrior tried to cheat and threatened a Hogwarts professor cannot be left alone."

Dumbledore then said in a deep and stern voice, and he looked at McGuffin.

McGuffin had a bad feeling.

"What Sirius said does make sense! Albert, I will leave this matter to you."

"Huh, Professor? I..."

"Needless to say. Your actions... can't interfere with the normal training life of a warrior in the Top Ten Tournament, but you must also let him know that Hogwarts has some basic orders that need to be followed." Dumbledore decided everything by himself.

"Try to save Hagrid's affairs... The most important thing is to let this warrior understand some Hogwarts rules and regulations!"

"You should be able to do that, right?" said Dumbledore.

——Fuck, what made these guys think of themselves as "Doraemon" one by one, thinking that he can achieve anything?
'And Dumbledore, a narrow-minded guy, is obviously taking revenge on Donald... for embarrassing himself at the dinner party for the selection of warriors, right? '

"Professor Dumbledore..."

Just when McGuffin was about to organize his language refusal.

Dumbledore, the old bee, asked Hagrid casually, "Hagrid, have you found the cave I asked you to search for in the Forbidden Forest two days ago?"

"Cave? Oh, yes... In the depths of the Forbidden Forest, there is a suitable cave where the terrifying giant plant used to be."

"Professor, when do you have time... let me show you?" Hagrid said, wiping his wet beard.

"No rush, tonight... I'll let Professor Severus come over and take a look with you. He's mainly responsible for this..." Dumbledore said, and he used a sausage he didn't know where to lead Fang to the other side of the room. (This guy keeps trying to lick Dumbledore's beard with his tongue)
After that, Dumbledore said to McGuffin who had been wanting to intervene and declined the task just now, "Albert, you are also here, so I said it together. This cave is the ritual place for you to break the [Blood Curse]..."

McGuffin froze in place.

"After all, this year's October 11 happens to be the blood moon. If it is delayed...you will have another opportunity in January of the next year. But because of some matters in the top ten competition...Next year, the time between me and Professor Snape may not be enough, so let's take this opportunity to get rid of this curse that has almost eroded you for three years?"

"What?" Harry, Ron, and Hermione stared at McGuffin.

McGuffin looked at the smiling Dumbledore, and he swallowed the words he wanted to decline the mission just now.

Gan!
'This little guy must be threatening himself...'

But McGuffin couldn't say much. In comparison, the [Blood Curse] matter was the most important.

Just as McGuffin was thinking, the neglected parchment system in his mind also gave a timely task:
[Task Name: Small Punishment, Big Commandment]

【content:
Donald Donfork is determined to make Ilvermorny the greatest school of wizardry in the world.

But he turned his mind to Hogwarts.

Albus Dumbledore has seen his intention, and is going to ask you to teach him a profound lesson without affecting the honor of Hogwarts and the fairness of the 'Top Ten Tournament', so that this foreign guest can understand that... there are some rules that must be obeyed at Hogwarts. 】

[Task reward: talent point XX (calculated according to the degree of completion)]

Of course, without this system task, just Dumbledore hinting that Hagrid is responsible for finding the magic ritual place where he wants to break the [Blood Curse], it is enough for McGuffin to do his best... to use all means to get Donald's affairs done.

A grin pulled across McGuffin's face, and he giggled at Hagrid, who then made a suggestion.

……

At around twelve o'clock that night, McGuffin borrowed Harry's invisibility cloak, walked quietly through the common room to the downstairs alone, and reached the shore of the Black Lake.

Originally, Harry and Hermione wanted to follow, but McGuffin did not agree,

After all, the fewer people the better, who knows what kind of moths will come out in a while,
On this point he is still very sure.

It was pitch black outside.

Beauxbaton's carriage, the shrine of the Nile Temple, and the black ship of German Shepherd Strong have been brightly lit and full of people in the dark.

Obviously these foreign students haven't fallen asleep yet.

He has to be careful.

"Quack! quack! quack!"

McGuffin squeezed his throat and croaked three times like a frog, and walked slowly along the shore of the Black Lake, trying to find that megalomaniac Donald East Fork.

It was already past 12:30.

Exactly the time Donald Eastfork had promised.

And this damn connection code was also made by this idiot.

(Thinking of Harry's uncontrollable smile, McGuffin was furious)
After the meeting in Hagrid's hut, McGuffin brought his bad idea and asked Harry to rely on his status as a warrior to find Donald and bring him the news.

It is said that there is news about the first event competition to tell him.

As a deal, he couldn't tell anyone else what he saw in the woods.

"Trading, I like trading the most, and I know the art of trading best!"

After Harry returned to the dormitory, he vividly described Donald Eastfork's stupidity... After he finished speaking, he suggested that he still hoped to go with McGuffin to make this bad idea deal.

So did Ron.

Of course, McGuffin still didn't take Harry with him, and borrowed Harry's Invisibility Cloak under the resentful gazes of the two of them.

"Quack! quack! quack!"

After about 6 minutes, another person's frog cry finally came from the dark shore.

That voice is very distinctive, vague with an ending, speaking like a mutter, with a certain accent.

Very discerning.

And McGuffin was about to be blown up at this time.

He took off the invisibility cloak, and growled at the stupid roe deer, "Do you know that there are no frogs in Black Lake, and there is no frog that croaks continuously..."

Donald Donfork snapped his fingers, and a twilight light came from nowhere and shone on him. This guy was covered with a soft holy light.

It's just like the angels descended from the world that those Muggles said.

- Fuck it!The idiot.

McGuffin couldn't bear to look.

"Don't worry, Donald Eastfork knows it all! I know very well...there will be frogs that croak alone..."

Just as he was talking, this guy stopped suddenly, froze in place, and remained silent for a long time... After that, Donald's tone became cold, "Where's Harry Potter? He made an agreement with me... I won't make deals with nobody."

"He's not here...it's the same as trading with me."

McGuffin tried his best to hold back his impatience, and said in a nonchalant tone.

"I……"

At this time, a magical ray of light suddenly lit up on the deck of the German Shepherd Strong black ship... Then there were a series of noises, and it seemed that someone was coming on the deck.

The light shone directly from the dark surface of the lake, and the figures of McGuffin and Donald Eastfork were almost clearly visible.

McGuffin leaned directly over.

"Hush, don't make a sound! That should be Demu Strong's students doing night swimming and practicing magic resistance... Put out the light on your body quickly..."

McGuffin threw the invisibility cloak and covered the two of them.

"This is?"

Donald looked in shock at this soft, translucent, light and soft invisibility cloak like water gauze.

He easily discovered the rarity and value of this invisibility cloak.

So the guy started warming up to the MacGuffin again.

"You said... what's your name?" He said softly.

"McGuffin Albert!"

"Albert? I seem to have heard... Which magic family in Europe is it? Could it be Germany... No, the wizards there usually choose the Demu Strong School of Magic."

Donald muttered to himself, despite the fact that MacGuffin could actually hear him.

At this time, student representatives in thin clothes and thick felt cloaks appeared in twos and threes on the deck of the German Shepherd Strong black ship, and the one at the head was naturally Wilktor Krum.

Everyone is surrounding him.

The very famous Seeker impatiently refused, and stayed away from everyone... Throwing off the cloak, wearing a pair of shorts in front of everyone, he jumped directly into the cold and dark lake, swimming back and forth in it.

When Krum's figure gradually disappeared on the dark lake, McGuffin and Donald looked away.

"Okay, let's stay away from here, follow me."

McGuffin led the way, and the two of them wore invisibility cloaks... a little away from the shore, but they still walked roughly along the Black Lake in the direction of a certain forbidden forest.

Seeing that Donald was still struggling with the name of McGuffin...was he born in that prominent wizarding family.

McGuffin could only tell him angrily that he was a Muggle wizard.

"Impossible...Donald knows everything, you can't fool me....Even if this invisibility cloak is among the few remaining invisibility cloaks in the world, it's a treasure. You can count them. You can't hide it from me..."

This guy Donald doesn't have Voldemort's ability, but he has the narcissism of the Dark Lord.

When McGuffin was about to explain the source of the invisibility cloak,
Donald Eastfork exclaimed suddenly, "Oh, I remembered, you are the Muggle wizard who invented a new type of broom, that friend of Harry Potter... that's right, you!"

The guy suddenly realized, and immediately stood up.

Relying on his tall stature, he looked down at McGuffin, and in a threatening tone, he whispered, "Let's redefine the trading rules? You give me this invisibility cloak... I won't tell others what I heard and saw in that deep forest this afternoon. I don't think you want to see Harry Potter... get involved in those cheating things?"

McGuffin grinned angrily.

What is this called a transaction? ?

——This guy wants to fart!
