Save the world from Hogwarts

They were curious about Hagrid's uncharacteristic behavior, but after entering the cabin, they roughly understood the reason.

The wooden house was completely covered and pitch black, with only the faint light coming from the stove burning in the center of the house.There was a copper kettle hanging on the stove, and hot water was boiling in the kettle. In the hot water, a huge egg was floating in the water with the boiling water.

They cheered and crowded around.Probe observation.

The egg was about bigger than their heads. The surface of the eggshell was a little rough, and it was dotted with yellowish-brown patterns.As they got closer, they could clearly feel the active life force escaping from the eggs.

"Is this a dragon egg?" Draco asked in a trembling voice, his gray-blue eyes staring at the egg in the boiling water without blinking.If it weren't for the boiling water in the copper kettle, his hand might have touched the egg at this time.

Hagrid carefully closed the door and locked it.He quickly walked to the stove and sat down, looking at the egg obsessively, his eyes blurred and his expression erratic: "Yes, this is a dragon egg, I won it with great difficulty."

Draco and Ron weren't even listening.Their current expressions were exactly the same as Hagrid's. If an uninformed person saw it, they would definitely think that they had drunk a love potion by mistake.

"What dragon is this?" Hermione asked.

It was uncomfortable for Hermione when a rare magical animal's egg was placed in front of her and she had no way to study it carefully.

"I guess it's Swedish Brachysaurus." Hagrid showed a silly smile.The big giant's huge face made such a little girl's expression, which made Lin Zhen feel chills all over her body.

"I think it's the Siberian Fire Dragon." Ron said in a dreamy tone, "Before I came to Hogwarts to go to school, Charlie would send me photos of various dragons or dragon eggs every once in a while, which is similar to the Siberian Fire Dragon. The eggs are almost the same.”

Charlie is Ron's older brother and works as a dragon trainer in Romania.

"I also think it's the Siberian Fire Dragon." Draco looked like he couldn't regain his aristocratic demeanor for a while. "I like dragons very much. You see, my name is Dragon. So when I was a child, I read a lot of books about dragons. , the Siberian fire dragon egg introduced in it looks like this."

Hermione walked around the stove behind them, seemingly observing the eggs in the kettle from all directions.Lin Zhen actually didn't care what kind of egg it was. He was curious about what Hagrid said was "won", but obviously, now was not a good time to talk about this.

"Will this help hatch the dragon successfully?" Hermione asked.

"I went to the library and borrowed a guide to raising dragons, Raising Dragons for Fun and Profit, and From Hatching to Nirvana. I also borrowed a copy of Species of Dragons in Great Britain and Ireland but it doesn't seem to be of much use right now. What the heck. , so that it can be hatched smoothly."

Hermione rubbed her forehead.

"But this is illegal." Hermione said fiercely. "I remember that at the Wizards' Conference in [-], a bill banning raising dragons was officially passed. Everyone knows this. If we do it later Keeping dragons in the garden makes it difficult for Muggles to notice us and it's difficult to tame them, which is very dangerous."

"Indeed," Ron interrupted, "the burns on Charlie's body were all left by wild dragons in Romania."

"Don't forget you still live in a wooden house, Hagrid," said Hermione.

Hagrid didn't listen at all. He played with the fire and hummed happily.

"Hey, Hagrid." Lin Zhen said suddenly, "You said you won this dragon egg. How did you win?"

"You know, I always like to go to the Leaky Cauldron Bar for a few drinks." Hagrid said happily. "The Leaky Cauldron Bar is really lucky for me. A few years ago, I got Louis Vuitton from a Greek guy there. .”

"Luwei"

"It's a big dog with three heads," Hagrid said. "I lent it to Dumbledore."

Draco covered Ron's mouth in time to prevent him from shouting anything. When Hagrid said "a big dog with three heads", Ron's mouth moved obviously.

"So how did this egg get here?" Hermione said impatiently.

"Haha, what a coincidence," Hagrid said cheerfully, "that day a man in a black hood came to the bar. He ordered a lot of drinks and invited us to drink. Then he said, if anyone knows how to deal with three If the person is the first dog, he will give the dragon egg in his pocket to that person."

Lin Zhen and Draco looked at each other.

"Did you say that?" Lin Zhen asked.

"Of course, this is a dragon egg, the dragon egg I dream of. And I know how to deal with the three-headed dog. I own a three-headed dog." Hagrid was extremely proud. "I told him that he just needs some music, and the three-headed dog I'll fall asleep soon, so the dragon egg belongs to me."

Hermione was shocked. She couldn't imagine Hagrid trusting a stranger so easily: "Do you know what that person looks like?"

"It's normal for him to be wearing a hood. There are often people in the Leaky Cauldron who don't want to show up."

"Then" Lin Zhen said suddenly, "do you know why Principal Dumbledore lent your Luwei to guard?"

"This is a secret," Hagrid said defensively, "This is an agreement between Dumbledore and Nicolas Flamel."

Poor Hagrid finally realized he had said a little too much.

"Oh, you can't tell others." Hagrid was a little annoyed.

Lin Zhen nodded.They quickly left Hagrid's hut.

"Who is Nicolas Flamel?" Hermione asked.

"A great alchemist," Lin Zhen answered quickly. "His research on the Philosopher's Stone earned him the Order of Merlin, First Class. His card was in the chocolate dolls we ate on the train to school."

"Then Lu Wei is guarding the Magic Stone."

"Bu Li Shi." Lin Zhen said, "The person who wants the Sorcerer's Stone now must already know that it is in Hogwarts, and that the person guarding it is Lu Wei."

"Who could it be?" Draco asked. "Could it be the same one who invaded Gringotts?"

"Probably." Hermione speculated. "He took such a big risk to break into Gringotts last time. He couldn't give up easily."

"Who would want it?" Ron said impatiently.

"I guess it might be Professor Quirrell." Lin Zhen slowly said his guess.

"What?" Ron was surprised, "How could Professor Quirrell be so pitiful? He was threatened by Professor Snape last time."

"It was precisely because Professor Snape threatened him," Lin Zhen said slowly, "that's why I doubted him. The night before Halloween, the troll broke into the school, and Professor Snape's leg was bitten by Fluffy. ."

"Then why not Professor Snape"

Hermione gave Ron an unladylike look: "We discussed this last time, did you listen carefully?"

"Then what should we do?" Draco asked.

"Just wait and see what happens." Lin Zhen said.

"Why didn't you tell the professors?" Hermione asked.

"Do you think the professors will believe us?" Draco said, "especially since we suspect that the person with evil intentions is our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."

It was time for Lin Zhen's potions tutorial again, and Lin Zhen arrived at the potions office early.

"Is your injury feeling better?" Lin Zhen asked while boiling the potion.

"Concentrate on your potion," Snape said. "Do you think your professor would be so fragile that he can't handle even a small injury?"

Lin Zhen stopped talking.

"Professor," Lin Zhen poured the brewed potion into a glass bottle, "Why does Professor Quirrell want the Philosopher's Stone?"

There was a moment of silence in the office.

"It seems our savior has figured out the truth" the acerbic Professor Snape appeared again.

"That shouldn't be the case," Lin Zhen said uncertainly, "I don't know who else in the school would want the Philosopher's Stone besides Professor Quirrell."

"Everyone wants the Philosopher's Stone."

"That's different," Lin Zhen said. "Professor Quirrell gave me a very bad feeling. When his back was turned to me, my scar hurt terribly."

"Harry Potter judges things by his feelings," Snape quipped.

"Professor, your leg was injured because of Professor Quirrell, wasn't it?"

Snape pursed his lips and said nothing.Lin Zhen knew that he had guessed correctly.

"What's under the trap door on the fourth floor?" Lin Zhen asked again.

"The levels set by several of our professors."

"So this is a break-in game. As long as someone breaks through the Sorcerer's Stone, it belongs to him," Lin Zhen said sarcastically. "Isn't Dumbledore afraid that the Sorcerer's Stone will be stolen?"

Snape was silent again.

Lin Zhen shrugged indifferently.

Next, everything was calm in the school, and Professor Quirrell did not do anything unusual.When it starts to snow outside the castle, Christmas is coming.The castle began to be filled with laughter and laughter, and the professors handed out Christmas stay application forms.Lin Zhen asked Xiren to send a letter to his uncle and aunt, telling them that he would spend the Christmas vacation at school.Hermione and Draco would be taken home by their parents.Ron and his older brothers stayed behind because their parents were taking their youngest sister to Romania to visit their eldest brother, Charlie.

"After I leave, will you pay more attention to Professor Quirrell?" Hermione said. "If it doesn't work, you must remember to ask the professors for help."

Ron and Lin Zhen nodded obediently.

"Merry Christmas in advance" Hermione hugged them and left.

"I will send you a letter," Draco said, "Are you really not coming to Malfoy Manor? There are many books in Dad's study, and I will make Dad agree to let you read them."

Lin Zhen smiled and shook her head: "Next time, Draco. Thank you for the invitation."

Draco left too.

Fred and George were put in detention because they enchanted several snowballs to chase Professor Quirrell and smash his big scarf.

Hagrid cut a Christmas tree from the Forbidden Forest and decorated it in the castle hall.The professors decorated the halls with Christmas spirit.

On Christmas Day, Lin Zhen woke up in bed. Under the Christmas tree in the corner of the bedroom were piles of large and small gifts.Lin Zhen came back from practicing as usual. After taking a bath, she sat by the tree and opened gifts.

Hermione gave him a copy of Theory of Medicine, a Muggle medical book, and he liked it very much.Ron's was a jar of candy with "Honeydukes" written on it.Draco gave him an emerald brooch.The brooch is in the shape of an eagle, a young eagle spreading its wings and about to fly, with beautiful emerald eyes.

To Lin Zhen's surprise, Snape also gave him a gift.
