Chapter 160 Hagrid is not easy to fool

Gringotts, the largest banking organization in the wizarding world, was broken into by unknown persons at the end of July this year. This was a sensational event at the time, and it made the front page of the Daily Prophet for a week.

Gringotts is known as the safest place, and wizards have suffered a lot this summer vacation.

Although the goblins have repeatedly emphasized that no property was lost in Gringotts and that the vault visited by the robbers was empty. Someone had taken away the contents of the vault long ago. However, the goblins remained silent on what the treasure was. How to ask? Don't say anything.

"You don't mean to say that the treasure the robbers covet is in Hogwarts, do you?" George asked uncertainly, "Hidden under the trap door?"

"It's not impossible." Ada suddenly felt a little funny, "Don't forget, Hogwarts is the safest place in the world, although it is not safe at all for me."

"Wait a minute, I'll go over it from the beginning." Fred walked back and forth in front of the fireplace for a while before continuing, "Although it is possible, I still think it is too far-fetched. Put that thing in Hogwart What's the reason for that? Does it belong at Hogwarts?"

This time Ada was stopped and asked where she knew about this matter.

Ada thought for a while and said: "This is also my guess. Quirrell was in the Leaky Cauldron at that time, and Hagrid and Harry were also there. Harry wanted to buy something, and Hagrid would definitely take him to Gringotts, and in the afternoon Gringotts was robbed when we arrived, and the things were not in Gringotts. Is this really just a coincidence?"

"You have seen Quirrell's behavior since the beginning of the school year. He is a complete useless snack. How could such a person break into Gringotts and escape unscathed?" Fred retorted, "I'm afraid he was caught by the goblin long ago. "

"What if Quirrell is acting?" Ada touched her earlobe and said, "What if he just wants us to treat him as trash?"

George took a breath of cold air. He felt that he must have goosebumps all over his body now. He said: "Then he is too terrible. That thing must be very important to him, so important that he can ignore everything."

It is human nature to pursue fame and fortune. As long as the interests are big enough, nothing cannot be sacrificed. What does it mean to be called a trash by students?

When Quirrell becomes famous, who will remember that he once stuttered and was called a waste? Just like now, everyone has long forgotten that Quirrell was a talented and clever wizard in the past.

"The most important thing now is to find out what is under the trap door and whether Hagrid brought it back. Knowing this will make things easier," George said.

Fred also said: "Let's test Hagrid's tone tomorrow and see if he will reveal any important information."

The twins had the same idea as Ada. Since they can't pass the three-headed dog quietly for the time being, let's change their thinking. Can a living person be choked to death by urinating?

Yes, Ada had a way to pass the three-headed dog. She could pass by killing the three-headed dog directly, but it would make too much noise and Ada would have to pay a certain price, which was not cost-effective.

"By the way," Fred said suddenly after the three people said good night to each other, "Next time we go to see the three-headed dog, shall we bring Gallon with us?"

Although Garen is a female, are you planning to use a beautiful dog trick? The body shape difference is too big! Ada didn't quite understand what Fred was thinking.

Seeing that Ada was a little confused, George explained: "Let Gallon see how other dogs look after homes. They are also dogs, but why is the gap so big!"

This... If you let a Labrador look after your house, you might as well choose a Corgi!

The next day was the weekend, but Ada and the twins did not stay in bed. They took Gallon to Hagrid's hut early in the morning. Both Hagrid and Yaya welcomed the arrival of three people and one dog. Hagrid welcomed the three students, and Yaya welcomed Galleon.

Hagrid warmly entertained the three of them. A large pot of hot tea and a large plate of rock biscuits were placed on the table. He also kept asking the three of them to eat more.

Ada refused. She had no choice but to live up to Hagrid's kindness. Between her front teeth and Hagrid, Ada unswervingly chose her own front teeth.

In order to get the information they wanted from Hagrid, the twins began to talk here and there, instead of giving it directly as soon as it came up.

The twins chose Care of Magical Creatures as their starting point. Their acting skills were much better than in the first grade. If she hadn't known about it in advance, Ada would have thought that the twins really liked this course and those magical creatures!

As long as you like magical creatures and want to raise magical creatures, you are my friend, Rubeus Hagrid. Listening to the twins talking about protecting magical creatures, Hagrid smiled so happily that his teeth and eyes could not be seen.

The reason he couldn't see his eyes was because he was squinting when he smiled, and the reason he couldn't see his teeth was because Hagrid had a thick beard and couldn't see them normally.

The sun rose higher and higher, and the conversation gradually deepened. The twins finally mentioned the three-headed dog, hoping to see the three-headed dog raised by Hagrid. Hagrid said that Lu Wei had been loaned to Dumbledore and could not see it for the time being.

Hearing this, Ada and the twins exchanged glances. The three-headed dog on the fourth floor was indeed Hagrid's pet. The twins continued to talk about the three-headed dog, and they also learned from Hagrid that Lu Wei liked music.

But when the topic got here, the conversation couldn't go on. Probably because the twins had misbehaved too many times, and it was not easy for them to trick Hagrid now. Hagrid was already suspicious of the twins' purpose.

Hagrid, who has always been tight-lipped, began to exercise his right of silence. No matter how Fred and George guided him, he would not say why Dumbledore borrowed Walking Dead, and would not reveal any information to the "intentional" person. Three people.

The atmosphere in the cabin began to become awkward. The twins tried their best to trick Hagrid into being fooled, but Hagrid abruptly changed the subject to prevent the twins from succeeding.

While Hagrid and the twins were sawing, Ada began to observe the wooden house. She turned the ring on her left ring finger, wondering whether she should use the ring to test Hagrid's willpower.

The ring has a passive effect of unswerving determination. It can prevent Ada from being bewitched by others, and can also in turn affect those with weak will.

But before Ada could speak, she discovered a newspaper clipping from the Daily Prophet. The date above is from August, and the content is about the Gringotts robbery. Obviously, Hagrid left it here on purpose.

In this small cabin, everything with writing on it was related to magical beasts. An old newspaper clipping was already very strange, let alone a briefing related to Gringotts.

It’s self-evident what this old newspaper clipping that has nothing to do with magical beasts represents, so we can stop here today.

Under Ada's hint, the twins stopped trying to fool Hagrid. It is difficult to fool someone who is on guard. The twins changed the topic and started talking about Charlie who was far away in Romania.

Talking about Charlie, Hagrid finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere in the hut was no longer awkward.

Near noon, Ada and the twins returned to the castle, and she explained to Fred and George the reason for stopping them.

She said: "Hagrid is on guard. If he continues to ask questions, he won't be able to find out anything. It will make people unhappy and the gain will outweigh the losses. And I also have a key discovery. It doesn't matter even if he doesn't say anything today."

Ada told the twins her analysis and opinions about the briefing, and the twins agreed.

Now the three of them are almost certain that the thing hidden under the trap door must be related to Hagrid. Otherwise, why would he care so much about Gringotts? Not one of the vaults in Gringotts belongs to Hagrid, so why not worry about it?

Now that we already know how to deal with the three-headed dog, and we have confirmed that the treasure taken away from Gringotts is related to Hagrid, this is enough. There is no need to eat it and become a fat man.

Next, we just need to figure out where the treasure is. This semester is still very long, so there is no rush.

Dumbledore was not in a hurry. They were not eunuchs, so why should they be in a hurry?
