Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 906 Gryffindor lacks courage

   Albert left.

The girls finally managed to extract the bad news from Krum's broken English, which meant that everyone would never have the chance to invite Albert to dance again, and the girls who danced with Albert became the envy of everyone. object.

  Especially Albert's dance partner, Katrina, is now surrounded by girls, and they are all curious about how Katrina became Albert's dance partner.

  Finally forced to do so, Katrina could only briefly explain why she became Albert's partner.

"Originally Albert planned to invite Isobel to be his dance partner, and you all know their relationship, but for some reason, Isobel refused, so he turned around and invited me to be his dance partner, saying that he would let me Help him block some troubles. Don't look at me like that, these are his exact words." Katrina shrugged and said that she was telling the truth: "Albert invited me to help him block your harassment. As for He didn't say the reason, but I think it should be an acquaintance, and those who danced with Albert before were all his acquaintances and friends."

   "He knows the warrior from Beauxbatons?" Someone couldn't help asking

   "I should know that Albert usually takes care of acquaintances and friends." Katrina shrugged and said what Albert taught her before, but she didn't expect it to come in handy.

  So, the reason why the group of people around couldn't dance with Albert was because they didn't know each other well.

   "I thought he liked you and wanted to pursue you." Lorena said gloomily.

   "You guys are thinking too much." Katrina glanced at the group of delusional girls, feeling inexplicably ridiculous, but she didn't laugh in the end, and just said calmly, "Albert has always liked Isobel."

   "Aren't you jealous?" Lorena asked.

   "Jealousy works?" Katrina asked back, "Do you expect me to send him a pastry mixed with love potion like you?"

   The girls were a little embarrassed to be pointed out.

   "Don't be stupid, Albert doesn't eat things of unknown origin at all. Like this kind of suspicious stuff, he will probably throw them away directly." Katrina shook her head, telling the group of people to give up and stop tossing.

   "Why didn't you tell us?" the girls complained.

   "Even if I say it, is it useful?" Katrina asked back.

   There was a longer silence around.

is that useful?

   No, but no one would say that people generally prefer to make excuses from others rather than from themselves.

  Katrina ignored her female companions, got up and walked towards the hall, preparing to return to Ravenclaw's common room early. Tonight, she danced happily with Albert, and now she plans to go back to rest.

   As for where did Albert go?

  Katrina can actually guess that he probably went to spend Christmas with Isobel. As for how Albert did it, she actually doesn't know, anyway, that guy has great powers.

On the other side, Harry, who had just overheard the chat between Hagrid and Madame Maxime, was staring sullenly at Qiu Zhang who was dancing with Cedrit on the stage, with an inexplicable anxiety in his heart, and Ron beside him was still stuck in the Hagrid was the half-giant in shock.

   "Harry, I have something to tell you." Hermione walked towards the two of them.

"What's up."

  Harry looked away from Qiu Zhang and asked suspiciously.

   "About the golden egg." Hermione lowered her voice, "Albert has already unlocked the secret of the golden egg, and he asked me to tell you."

   "I thought the guy was going to try to rip Sirius off with this," Ron muttered.

  Hermione didn't look at Ron at all, just regarded him as air, looked at Harry and continued, "As long as you put the golden egg in water and open it, you can know its secret."

   "But why did Anderson tell me?"

  Harry actually agrees with Ron's words in his heart, after all, Albert knocked Sirius a Galleon through the first project.

   "I suggest you ask him this question yourself." Seeing Harry's reaction, Hermione frowned and said, "Also, I remember he also gave you a hint in the first project."

   "Sirius paid for it," Ron sneered.

"Before Sirius asked for the divination, he told you that the first project may need to face magical creatures with a danger level of xxxxx." Hermione glanced at Ron coldly and said, "Sirius wants accurate information, so He paid, and I don't see a problem with that. Don't you go to Hogsmeade and don't pay for anything you buy? Or do you think people should give it to you for free?"

  Hermione didn't like the attitude of Harry and Ron very much, they were childish and ridiculous.

  Harry opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while. In the end, he didn't continue to dwell on this matter, but told Hermione what they had just overheard.

   Hermione doesn't think it's scary that Hagrid is a half-giant like Ron does.

   "Actually, I already knew he was a half-giant." Hermione shrugged and said, "To be honest, we don't need to be nervous about it."

   "You have no idea how dangerous giants are," said Ron sharply. "Giants are fierce, dangerous, and they like to kill."

   "Do you think Hagrid will hurt us?" Hermione asked ridiculously.

   "Of course not," said Harry quickly. He didn't care about it, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"However, Hagrid is very irrational to do this." Hermione sighed, "Albert has warned him more than once not to mention the matter of giant blood in front of anyone, in fact we should not talk about it thing."

   "Albert knows?" Harry asked suspiciously.

   "If he knew that Hagrid didn't listen to his warning, he would be very angry." Hermione was a little worried about the next thing.

   "What's there to be angry about." Ron dismissed this.

   "To be honest, I think Mrs. Maxime is very sensible. If I were me, I would probably say that I have a big frame." Hermione ignored Ron and murmured, "I hope nothing bad happens."

  Hermione knew very well that since Albert specifically told Hagrid, it meant that the leak of this matter might have a very bad influence on Hagrid.

   "Something bad."

"You shouldn't have forgotten the impact of Professor Lupine's identity as a werewolf, have you?" Hermione reminded, "Professor Lupine lost his job because of this, and he also received countless angry letters, and Dumbledore also received a bunch of Letter demanding the dismissal of Professor Lupine."

"So, don't mention it again, and don't mention it in front of others." After Hermione finished speaking, she got up and walked away. Harry and Ron saw Krum quickly appear beside Hermione, and the two After chatting for a few words, we walked towards the dance floor together.

  Ron's face darkened even more.

   "If you invite her to dance, you probably won't refuse."

   "What?" Ron suddenly turned to look at Harry.

   "It's nothing, I'm considering whether to invite..." Harry murmured in a low voice.

  Until the end of the ball, Harry finally failed to muster up the courage to invite Qiu Zhang to dance, and spent the Christmas ball in regret.
