Chapter 219
“Oh, dear child!”
“My dear… you have something ominous…”
Trelawney looked at Harry seriously.
Harry felt guilty.
“It’s not a silly smile, it’s an ominous sign! It looks like a big dog!”
“This is the darkest sign in the world!”
“It’s… a symbol of death!”
Trelawney’s words made Harry’s eyes unconsciously immersed in the teacup.
Several pieces of tea leaves faintly pieced together a pattern of a big black dog.
Argus, who was next to him, heard it and shook his head slightly.
If she had only said it was a big dog, maybe he would really think that there was something strange about the tea leaf prophecy.
It can predict the arrival of Sirius.
What a pity!
The sentence at the end is superfluous!
Will Sirius fight with Harry?
He won’t touch Harry even if he touches Dumbledore!
It’s very likely that he saw the report about Sirius in the Daily Prophet, so he chose Harry to show his presence.
But Harry didn’t know this, and unlike Argus, he couldn’t see that Trelawney was playing tricks!
After being fooled by a few words, he really thought that his life was in danger.
He was distracted by this matter throughout the class.
He was not in the mood to play games even when Ron asked him to.
…
This situation continued until the afternoon, when Hagrid’s magical creatures class was slightly relieved.
Compared with the original book, Harry and Hagrid’s relationship is much more distant now.
Although they are still friends, they are just friends.
Even if Hagrid forgave them for Ron’s backstabbing, there will always be a thorn in his heart.
Along the way, Ron kept comforting Harry.
“You don’t think that divination is related to Sirius, right?”
“To be honest, I think Professor Trelawney is a bit… uh… how to say it…”
Ron racked his brains but couldn’t remember what the word was.
Simply change the subject.
“Hey, Harry, what do you think Hagrid will tell us today?”
“I hope he won’t tell us about some weird magical animals.”
“You know, he likes to raise some large magical animals and calls them cute.”
As they talked, the two had come to Hagrid’s hut.
The surrounding area was full of little wizards who came to class.
Hagrid stood at the door, waving his big hand to call the little wizards to come over.
“Okay, come closer!”
“No nonsense, I have prepared good things for you today!”
“Great class, follow me!”
Hearing Hagrid say this, Argus subconsciously cast his eyes around.
After making sure that no weird magical animals were found, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
A group of people followed Hagrid to the outer layer of the Forbidden Forest.
“Little guys, take out your textbooks, we are going to see the first magical animal we are going to learn today!”
Hagrid was still a little nervous, and for a moment he even forgot the class process he had discussed with Argus.
Argus took out the Monster Book of Monsters and stood in the front row to signal Hagrid, and Hagrid finally reacted.
He hurriedly took out the monster book from his pocket.
He was not the only one who was in a hurry. Most students had to tie the monster book with a rope to get it.
Now they had to open the textbooks, and the scene was in chaos for a while.
Ron held the monster book with one hand and untied the rope with the other hand.
He complained in a low voice: “I don’t know why Hagrid chose this book as a textbook.”
“It’s hard to even take it out, let alone teach it!”
Hagrid had never seen such a scene before, and became a little overwhelmed.
He didn’t know where to put his hands.
Seeing that Hagrid was a little out of control, Argus took out his wand and pointed it at his throat.
“Everyone, please be quiet for a moment. Don’t untie the rope that binds the monster book for now.”
“Professor Hagrid has a good way to deal with the monster book!”
Seeing the scene gradually quiet down, Hagrid couldn’t help but cast a grateful look at Argus.
Everyone’s eyes gradually gathered towards Hagrid.
Hagrid hurried forward and held up the monster book high.
“Don’t panic, little guys, this book is not as scary as you think.”
“Just…”
Hagrid turned the monster book over and gently stroked the back of the monster book with his hand.
After a few times, the monster book seemed to lose all its strength and fell limply in Hagrid’s hand.
It looks no different from an ordinary book.
“So that’s how it is! I was wondering why the professor chose such a book that is so hard to open!”
“Yeah, I didn’t expect it to be so simple!”
“Try it now, this book is killing me! If it hadn’t bitten my Potions textbook, I wouldn’t have lost a lot of pocket money!”
“It works! It really works!”
A group of little wizards stroked the back of the monster book according to Hagrid’s method..
After a while, the class quieted down.
Hagrid breathed a sigh of relief. In just a few minutes, his palms began to sweat a little.
“Okay, stop talking and stand in line.”
“Open the book to page 17.”
Ron had no opinion on Hagrid, but he couldn’t stand Argus’s behavior.
“Tsk, you thought you were an assistant teacher!”
“Hagrid is in class, it’s your turn to point fingers!”
As he said that, he untied the rope on the monster book and was about to touch the back.
The monster book in his hand suddenly went crazy and kept biting Ron’s arm.
He screamed in fear!
Harry on the side hurried to help and wanted to tear the book off.
As soon as he grabbed the book, before he could use force, Ron shouted at the top of his voice: “Don’t do it, Harry!”
“If it’s torn, my mother will kill me!”
Harry hesitated and reached out to touch the back of the monster book.
Argus frowned.
As Hagrid’s good friend, you not only didn’t help, but also hindered him at the critical moment.
Can’t you use your brain?
Argus saw with his own eyes that others first touched the back of the monster book and confirmed that the monster book had no reaction before loosening the rope.
Even some of those who loosened the rope in advance would try their best to control the monster book first.
Only Ron!
He was so stubborn that he just untied the rope!
He even stretched his hand towards the book, who else would he bite if not you!
Fortunately, with Harry’s help, Ron escaped by chance, and kept mumbling in his mouth, saying how bad this book was.
Hagrid was extremely embarrassed.
He even forgot how he wanted to give the next lecture.
Argus coughed twice to help Hagrid out.
“Professor, we have turned to page 17. What are we going to talk about today?”
