The Mysterious Return of Hogwarts

"It's so beautiful..."

Can you imagine a half-giant nearly five meters tall, with a shy beard, holding a dragon egg in his rock-like palms, and then speaking extremely disgusting words to it in the tone of a child gazing at a treasure?

Beside the fireplace in the Slytherin cabin, Quirrell took out an ordinary brown leather case that held the dragon egg.

As soon as Hagrid took it with both hands, he couldn't wait to look at it carefully by the coals of the fireplace.The dragon egg has a glazed ceramic-like shell with black and white spots. As Hagrid moves his fingers, a gold or mithril-like reflection is cast.

"It is indeed beautiful, but Quirinus plans to give it to Professor Snape to make medicine..."

Neo took a sip of a glass of pumpkin juice he bought from the Leaky Cauldron and poured a basin of cold water on Hagrid.

The glass of pumpkin juice was only half full, and it was a prop for his restorative apparation training.

Tom is a master of flight and space movement among wizards. Neo has been exploring the opponent's previous spells these days. He is no worse than Tom in using apparation and apparation, but his young body makes him feel that he can do it. Furthermore, when the amount of magic power between Voldemort in his 50s and Neo in his teens is not much different, the upper limit is not at the same level.

"What training method is more effective than water bottle training?"

Neo has been able to get from Diagon Alley to his doorstep without spilling half a glass.When Quirrell came back with Hagrid, the two of them rolled around on the ground, especially Hagrid, who yelled that he almost separated.

"Oh, no, take it to refine the medicine, this is a small life!"

Hagrid had a look of panic on his face.

When you are only one step away from your dream, reason is basically far away from your head.

"Neo, can you help me talk to Professor Quirrell? I want this dragon egg. For this, I am willing to pay a lot of gold galleons... no, all my money."

He glanced at Quirrell who was making tea in the kitchen, but actually just watching the teapot boiling water.

Neo smiled slightly, "But it is illegal to keep dragons privately..."

Hagrid's face turned red, and he didn't dare to look at Neo anymore.

"I didn't say I wanted to raise...well, I can't lie to a child...I do want to raise a dragon. That's been my dream since I was very young. After so many years, I have only seen a living dragon egg today, and I am so excited. Neo, you see, it must also like me. I dare say that I am the only one who can take good care of this little guy. In Hogwarts, All magical animals like me..."

He couldn't defend or deceive, so the half-giant lowered his head sadly... Well, he was still holding the egg and wouldn't let go.

Until Quirrell came back to the fireplace with a kettle.

"Let me pour you a cup of tea. The tea I just bought today...and the tea cup."

His wand clicked on the coffee table, and several new teacups sprouted legs and ran to the three of them. The teapot in his hand tilted his head and poured hot water into the cups one by one.

"Quirinas, thank you."

Neo put Nagini down from her body. She was very active now. The snakes wanted to run out at night. Even with Neo taking care of her, she no longer needed to hunt.

"Professor Quirrell, thank you for the hospitality."

Quirrell came into the living room now, and Hagrid was a little restless. He glanced at Neo, his eyes wide, which might be a hint.

"Ahem..." Neo pretended to understand, "Quirinas, Hagrid wants your dragon egg..."

Quirrell paused, and Neo told him some things in the afternoon, including the part about Hagrid watching dragon eggs tonight.He immediately remembered how to answer.

"Oh?"

"Mr. Hagrid, this is nothing to be embarrassed about. I originally planned to exchange the dragon eggs and Professor Snape for some potion ingredients, but since you like it, we all work at Hogwarts and have known each other for so many years. You can take whatever you want..."

Are we that familiar?Hagrid couldn't remember, but Quirrell was too friendly. This was a dragon egg, and he suddenly felt embarrassed.

"How is this possible... It is Professor Quirrell's trophy in Albaria, but I like it so much. I hope I can compensate you in other ways... You want potion ingredients? I remember I still had some in my pocket. You know, I was always active in the forbidden forest in school. When I saw them, I would pick some up and put them in my pocket, but I would forget them from time to time..."

Hagrid's face was suppressed with boiling joy. He received Quirrell's gift, and his eyebrows almost flew up. At this moment, he neatly reached into a large pocket on his chest and took out a bundle of rope. The rope was actually just a small bundle of cloth. Neo glanced at it and immediately sat up. They were all made of unicorn fur.

"Not this...where did I put it?"

Hagrid seemed to have picked it up by mistake, so he put his hand in his pocket for a while. When he pulled it out again, it was a small... paper bag about the same size as Neo's head. He shook it with his hand and put it on the It was opened in front of the table, and inside was a long and slender thing wrapped in a large leaf.

The leaves had turned yellow, and the broken marks on the edges showed that Hagrid had torn them off from a random tree. The rope that tied the package was a grass stem, which was also torn from it.

Hagrid put his hand on the table, pushed it towards Quirrell, and then motioned with his palm for Quirrell to take it back.

"Professor Quirrell, I gave it to you in return for this dragon egg."

"This shape, is it a moonstone?"

Quirrell asked Hagrid.At the same time, he stretched out his hand towards the table. The leaf bag was really not very beautiful in appearance, but Neo had explained it before, so he didn't show any disgust.

The moonstone he asked about is a slender potion material. Its magic power includes helping people gain emotional calmness and calmness, so it can be used in the preparation of almost all kinds of potions, including demulcents. The size in front of you , is also rare, look at the color, if it is... Quirrell was just making an estimate when he heard Hagrid explain with a smile.

"Oh, it's a unicorn horn, it comes off naturally, you can use it with confidence."

To hell with moonstone.

Neo sat upright on the sofa. This kind of rare thing may not be available in Bojin Bock store for 30 years.

"Professor Quirrell, just accept it. It's of no use to me. If you're so adventurous, you can take it and ask someone to carve it into an amulet."

Hagrid stroked the dragon egg carefully. He hoped that Quirrell would accept his gift quickly, so that he could take the dragon egg with peace of mind.

Quirrell swallowed, and with great perseverance, he looked away from the table and said to Hagrid according to Neo's previous script.

"Hagrid, let me ask you a question, do you really want to raise a dragon?"

Hagrid hesitated. Collecting dragon eggs and raising dragons were two different things. He didn't know how to explain it.

Quirrell smiled: "I know a dragon-raising family, and they should be willing to help me get a dragon-raising license..."
