Chapter 696: old friend

Harry cared very much about Albert's words, but he didn't expect Professor Lupin to be a good friend of his father's, and Hagrid knew it too.

Why didn't they mention it to themselves?

Harry hesitated for a few days, and finally decided to ask Hagrid about Professor Lupin.

"Hagrid, is Professor Lupin really a good friend of my father's?"

Hagrid pours the tea with his hand, then raised his head and asked, "Who told you?"

"Albert." Hermione answered Hagrid's question for Harry. She found that Hagrid didn't seem to want to talk about it.

"When Lupin and James were in school, they were really close friends." Hagrid spoke slowly, "But..."

"Their relationship froze?" Harry asked tentatively.

"No, no." Hagrid put the poured three cups of strong tea in front of the three of them and recalled, "They have always been very close friends, inseparable, very similar to you."

"But why did Professor Lupin never come to see me since I was a child?" Harry was puzzled. He felt that if Professor Lupin was really a good friend of his father, he would not be able to ignore their only son after the death of his friend. Do not ask.

At least, Harry thought he wouldn't do that if he switched to himself.

"Professor Lupin has not had a good time all these years, and I don’t know anything else. If you have any questions, I suggest you ask him directly?" Hagrid threw Harry’s question directly to Lupin. I am happy with my wit.

There are certain things that Hagrid is really not good at telling Harry, and telling him now will not do any good, it will only make things worse.

"Ok!"

Knowing that there was nothing to ask from Hagrid, Harry gave up. He felt that he could go to Albert for information, or go directly to Professor Lupin.

"Hagrid, what did Albert come to do with you?" Hermione changed the subject.

When they first came, they happened to ran into Albert.

"He came to ask me questions about magical creatures," Hagrid was a little proud of this, and Albert recognized his ability in the field of magical creatures.

However, I just joined the job, and my teaching level needs to be improved.

"Ask questions about magical creatures." Ron's voice was raised a little bit, his tone was strange, even Harry and Hermione's expressions were a bit unnatural, there is no way, Hagrid's magical creature protection lesson It's too bad.

"Cough cough." Hagrid also noticed the expressions on the faces of the three of them, and cleared his throat, "Albert is going to participate in...it looks like a school of magic, oh, yes, the magic school of potions tournament. So, He came to me to understand the habits of some magical creatures, what to watch out for in the forest, and probably where to find them."

"But these are potions..."

"The Magic School Potions Championship," Hermione corrected.

"Yes, what does it have to do with the Potions Championship?" Ron asked in confusion.

"I heard that the players need to enter the magic garden to collect raw materials within the specified time."

"Why haven't I heard of this?"

"Hagrid, tell us about the Magic School Potions Championship." Hermione was very interested in this matter.

"It is said that it is a potion contest that 11 wizard schools in the magical world will send people to participate in. Hogwarts has not won the championship for a long time." Hagrid is also very happy that the topic has been led to Albert's body. "However, this year Hogwarts has a great chance of winning the championship, and you know that Albert has always been great."

"After all, he is a genius!" Ron said sourly. "There is almost nothing that can hold him up."

"He is indeed a genius, he is great in everything," Hermione whispered.

"You don't know how much Fred and George admire Albert, and have always believed what he said."

"That's because Albert can divination!" Hermione reminded.

"Albert is really good!" Harry also admitted this.

At least, Albert had mastered that profound patron saint curse very early, and he had practiced hard for a week, the patron saint was still extremely weak.

"No, you don’t know. I once heard Fred and George say that Albert was eyeing Sirius Black’s high bounty, and predicted that Black would appear at Hogwarts, ready to look for opportunities. Grab Black, take him to the Ministry of Magic in exchange for the bounty, and then use the money to open their joke shop." Ron recalled that they had just returned from Egypt and accidentally overheard the twins' conversation.

"Then I should thank him. If he needs bait, I can help. Then let him remember to point me to Garon." Harry said half-jokingly.

"Harry, this is not the point. The point is that Albert thinks Black will show up at Hogwarts." Hermione frowned. Although he didn't want to admit it, Albert's judgment was always accurate, since he Saying that Sirius Black would appear at Hogwarts, then Harry needed to be careful.

"Maybe, we can ask Albert to help divination Sirius? When will Black appear, we can go to ambush Black together at that time!" Ron suggested excitedly. Black’s ten thousand gallons reward is really tempting. If he can, he wants to divide some money from that reward, even if there are only a few gallons.

"Don't be delusional, Black is not so easy to be caught, otherwise the Ministry of Magic will not be looking for him now." Hagrid was taken aback by their daring, and said quickly: "I asked Albert, He said that the possibility is not high... and the time has not yet arrived."

"opportunity?"

"Don't ask me, I don't know. Fortune-tellers are secretive anyway." Hagrid recalled how Albert said about it, and couldn't help but shook his head and said, "I remember that you all seem to take divination courses."

"Don't say it, Professor Trelawney is a liar." Hermione began to tell Hagrid about Professor Trelawney's prediction that Harry would die in the first class of school.

"I'm not familiar with Professor Trelawney, but I heard many students call her an old liar in private." Hagrid turned to look out the window, stood up and said to the three of them: "Okay, I'll send you back to the castle!"

"Without Hagrid, we can do it ourselves..."

"I insist on Harry, you should pay attention to your safety now." Hagrid got up and prepared to send the three of Harry back to the castle.

"Hogwarts is safe, and there are a bunch of dementors around the school."

"Albert thinks the Dementor is unreliable. I think he is right. Since Black can escape from Azkaban, there must be a way to hide the Dementor." Now Hagrid is more willing to believe Albert's judgment. , Especially after the accident happened in the first class, I regretted that I didn't listen to Albert's advice at that time.

"Harry, promise me, don't run around after dark, okay?"
