Chapter 76 Pet Box

At that time, this surprised Basil.

Before that, he never knew that Dumbledore set up this chess game to catch Voldemort.

He thought it was just to test whether Voldemort knew that Harry was his Horcrux and the energy of the love spell on Harry.

To design Voldemort's resurrection later, Harry's blood was used to lay the groundwork.

In this way, the love spell that should have disappeared after Harry became an adult continued in Harry and Voldemort's body.

In the end, when Harry died, he was able to rely on this connection to survive.

Only the soul fragments in the body were destroyed to get rid of the identity of the Horcrux.

He didn't expect that Dumbledore would not follow the prophecy.

He thought about getting everything done when Harry was in the first grade and letting Harry get rid of his fate.

Basil did not doubt the content of this conversation, but the ability to distinguish lies brought by the [Truth Appraiser] made him confirm that Dumbledore did not lie in it.

He also learned that there would be a large amount of gems to be harvested later.

Peter Pettigrew's early imprisonment and Sirius' early release are undoubtedly big changes compared to the original world line.

This made Basil feel much happier, after Harry and the others inevitably knew that the Philosopher's Stone was hidden in the restricted area on the fourth floor.

And now. Basil narrowed his eyes.

Hagrid ran to the library to borrow books, trying to shrink behind the books that were very small compared to his burly figure.

It immediately attracted the attention of Harry and the others who were temporarily not interested in doing their homework because of Basil's Versailles.

In Basil's mind, the clear and three-dimensional Hagrid's hut was now sealed in this warm and sunny day, and there was a dragon egg in the fireplace roasting in the fire.

"Hagrid actually came to borrow books?" The gossipy Ron narrowed his eyes, "Is this related to the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Yes," Harry, who was also not interested in reading, nodded, "This is very strange. But how can we know--"

Harry looked at Ron, and Ron smiled triumphantly.

A minute later, he came back with a pile of books in his arms, and threw them heavily on the table.

"Case solved! It's a dragon!" He whispered, "Hagrid is looking for information about dragons! Look at these: "Types of Dragons in Great Britain and Ireland", "From Egg to Death", and "A Guide to Raising Dragons".

"Hagrid has always wanted a dragon. He told me so when I first met him." Harry said.

Then Ron popularized science. At the Wizard Conference in 1709, a bill prohibiting the raising of dragons was officially passed.

And what wild dragons are there in Britain, and how the Ministry of Magic deals with Muggles who see wild dragons - use the Forget Charm on them.

Finally, even Hermione couldn't sit still.

"So what exactly does Hagrid want to do?"

"We'll know if we go there?" Basil drank the Coke and burped.

An hour later, they appeared in Hagrid's hut, which was incredibly hot because it was closed and had a fire.

After declining Hagrid's dark cuisine, the ferret sandwich, Harry took the lead and mentioned the Philosopher's Stone.

"The things in the small bag you brought from Gringotts on my birthday are the same as those hidden in the restricted area on the fourth floor - the Philosopher's Stone."

Bang! The teapot in Hagrid's hand fell to the ground, and the boiling hot tea almost splashed on his teeth.

"What are you doing to me. This. What else do you know?"

"Hehe," Ron stood up, "We also know that Snape wants to get the Philosopher's Stone. For this reason, he also threatened Professor Quirrell, wanting to get a way to get through the three-headed dog from him."

Hagrid slumped in his chair, "Fluvia, you guys know that too?"

He was so shocked that he forgot to defend Snape.

The next second he became alert again, "Wait, what are you talking about? Quirrell knows how to get through Fluffy? Impossible! No one knows that Fluffy's weakness is music except me and Dumbledore."

"So, the three-headed dog is called Fluffy." Harry answered quickly.

In order to save words, Basil directly "guessed": "Weakness. Music? Does it fall asleep when it hears music?"

"Oh! The galloping Gorgon!" Hagrid was furious.

He covered his mouth and seemed to have made up his mind and was not going to say a word.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione looked at each other.

They all understood that Basil must have guessed right!

Ron made a look, indicating Harry to ask the next question.

In this closed room, the black egg in the fire of the fireplace is obviously a dragon egg!

He had just been to Romania. If he was not mistaken, this must be the egg of the Norwegian Ridgeback.

Seeing that Harry did not understand.

He said directly: "This is the egg of the Norwegian Ridgeback. Are you going to hatch it? Have you prepared a pet box?"

Ever since Newt relied on the pet in his magical pet box to do a series of epic things.

The box with a complete natural cycle inside, which was cast with the traceless extension spell and the weather spell, became popular.

Although it was only circulated on the black market in the UK, Ron had never heard of it before.

But in Romania, it was a fashion.

Almost every family had a domestic dragon - in a box.

But Hagrid seemed a little puzzled, and he immediately loosened his mouth.

"Pet box?" He pulled out a large book from under his pillow. "I borrowed it from the library - "Raising Dragons for Fun and Profit". Although it is outdated, it is very comprehensive. For example, put the eggs in the fire and imitate their mother's breathing on them. After they come out, feed them a bucket of brandy and chicken blood every half an hour."

"You can recognize it because you went to Romania at Christmas. There are a lot of dragon farms there. Is the pet box a must?" He showed a worried look, "Is it expensive?"

Ron waved his hand, "Not expensive! It's enough to sell some of the unicorn tail hairs that you use as bandages. The pet box refers to the box that can keep large magical animals with a complete natural cycle that Newt Scamander has."

"But keeping dragons is illegal." Hermione pointed out bluntly.

Ron smiled, "As long as it's not discovered, it's not illegal. All Romanian wizards do this. Not to mention, there's Mr. Scamander! He's been doing this for years, and nothing has happened! This is a loophole he deliberately left when he wrote the law."

"Really?!!" Hagrid's black beetle-like eyes burst into joy and desire.

"If you want, I think Ron should be able to help you order a pet box." Basil, who smelled the gem, interrupted.

Hermione showed a look of betrayal, put her hands on her hips, and turned her back.

Ron nodded.

Then a handful of unicorn tail hair was stuffed into his hand.

On the way back to the castle, Ron walked briskly, smiled, and stroked the tail hair in his arms like stroking his lover's cheek.

"These hairs are definitely enough! Even if Fred and George are given a commission, there will still be some left!"

This is true.

After deducting the commission for the exchange, these tail hairs were exchanged for a total of 614 gold galleons.

The pet box delivered at the end of the holiday cost 300 Galleons.

In other words, Ron earned 314 Galleons in one go.
