The time without Umbridge is pleasant and pleasing.
Although both weekends are Hogsmeade open days, for little wizards, they can live leisurely where there is no Umbridge.
The next day was Sunday. Harry and Ron spent a lot of time on their homework. After all, no matter how hard they study in private, they are choosing the subjects they are best at for further study.
As for those subjects that are not good at, the effort will not be less.
Catching up with homework, of course, can't make them happy as students. But under the last bit of warmth of the approaching winter, in the gentle package of the warm sunshine, we can always get some comfort.
Therefore, taking advantage of today's cold wind, they did not choose to nest in the common lounge as usual, but changed the place for homework to the Bank of Fuyan lake behind the castle.
Sitting under a tall beech tree, Harry and Ron struggled to fill a lot of homework vacancies under Hermione's silent supervision.
No way, for their students of this class, the o.w.ls exam is the top priority. As long as Hogwarts has not been completely destroyed, the exam is bound to arrive as scheduled.
In this period, a lot of homework is just commonplace. Compared with the graduates facing the n.e.w.ts test, they can only be regarded as a rehearsal.
Hermione's homework was naturally finished long ago. At this moment, she was leaning against the tree trunk and slightly closed her eyes.
The wand in her hand shook slightly with the jump of her wrist, controlled the two sets of knitting needles floating around her, and knitted some winter cold resistant articles.
If you look carefully, you can also see that there are extremely detailed patterns on those wool hats and scarves. If you usually use a magic spell, you can't weave so delicate.
In fact, for Hermione, this is also a part of the training of spell control.
It is rare that there is no wind today. Sitting here, you can see that the lake is as smooth as a mirror. The blue sky and the dazzling sun are quietly reflected on the water, making it difficult to tell whether it is the water or the sky.
Occasionally, there is a slight breeze blowing, gently wrinkling the silence, and even bringing people a little regret.
"Ha -"
Towards noon, the sun had quietly climbed overhead. Harry finally turned over and fell on the grass with a long sigh of relief.
"Done?" Hermione asked casually, raising her eyelids.
"Yes!" at the warmest moment of the day, Harry was bathed in the direct sunlight in the sky and felt that he was too lazy to move a finger. "Today is the last day. Relax and there will be no time for us to rest..."
"Oh!"
Ron also breathed a sigh of relief. He threw the quill in his hand and then lay down next to his best friend.
"That's right, ah - I don't want to eat lunch. I just want to lie here and cherish every last minute!"
"Don't talk like you're going to die!" Hermione gave him a lazy look, but rarely continued to nag.
To be honest, the three are both excited and worried about the upcoming plan. When you know what you are going to face, the mountain like pressure falls naturally.
Facing such heavy psychological pressure, it is a very arduous challenge how to transform it more and fully into their own motivation.
"The burden borne by Marca and Dumbledore is obviously much heavier than this... How can they still show a reassuring smile under such circumstances?"
Under the mottled shadow of the trees and the warmth brought by the sun, Hermione couldn't help falling into the meditation of dreaming and waking.
……
While the three little lions were basking in the sun, Luna and Hagrid went into the forbidden forest together.
Because Luna had caught a glimpse of glop's tall figure when Hagrid came back with glop, Hagrid had been unable to stop Luna's curiosity.
After agreeing not to tell about glop's existence, Hagrid had to promise to take Luna to meet his stunted big brother.
The forbidden forest is still dark. Even on a sunny noon, the evergreen dense canopy will still cover it as if it were cloudy.
"... giants are not very polite, and so is little glop. But I think they are just not good at expressing their feelings, or they express their feelings in different ways -"
In the bushes, Hagrid led Luna with a trance face, striding forward, talking about glop and the giant.
Of course, this knowledge is mixed with a lot of experience that only belongs to Hagrid. We can only make a question mark about the accuracy.
"That giant can eat people... What kind of feelings are you expressing?" Luna didn't know what she was thinking. She asked such a question with great interest.
"Er..." Hagrid thought about it, then shrugged. "I think maybe... They're hungry?"
"That makes sense." Luna nodded seriously.
"Well..." Hagrid looked back at her. "By the way, will Marca come today?"
"I don't know," Luna took a big step and stepped over the roots of the trees on the ground. "Maybe not... He looks very busy."
"The same as before!" Hagrid shook his head. "It's a pity not to walk outside in such a fine weather... Oh, here we are!"
As they were talking, the snoring from the front was very close and seemed to be in front.
Hagrid stretched out his broad palm and pushed aside the trees. Suddenly, a bright light covered his vision. He narrowed his eyes in a hurry and opened them again after his eyes adapted a little.
"Oh... A tree has fallen down," Hagrid said suddenly. "It seems that we have to change the place for the little guy again."
Yes, one of the two trees used to tie glop had been pulled out of the ground by his roots and fell obliquely to one side.
But fortunately, glop didn't run around. He was sleeping on the bare ground he had trampled on!
"Shh -"
Hagrid immediately turned back, raised his index finger to his mouth and motioned Luna to keep quiet. Then he turned back again, pushed aside the trees, and crept to glop's side.
It seems that even if Hagrid dotes on his little brother, he knows in his heart that it is impossible to make his baby brother obedient for the time being.
In order to make it easier to re tie glop, it was obviously appropriate to do it while he was sleeping. For this reason, he even temporarily gave up another place more suitable for tying glop, and directly moved his hand in place.
"It's a good decision to bring a rope every time!"
Hagrid took down the big bundle of thick rope hanging from his waist, but instead of taking care of Gloop, he beat up the bundle of rope first.
He skillfully shook off the rope, made a big rope sleeve with the two strands together, then chose two big trees near glop and tied one end firmly to the trunk of the two trees.
Then he picked up the rope sleeve, put it on glop's waist and put it on the ground above his head, and wrapped his whole upper body in the circle of the rope sleeve.
Hagrid had always wanted to raise a real fire dragon, so he also specially learned the rope trap skills of the Dragon trainer. But he never thought that the dragon was not developed, but this useless technology was used by him on his brother.
"Little glop, get up!"
Hagrid, who had finished all the preparations neatly, went to glop's head and patted him hard on the back of the head. Glop's terrible snore was suddenly heard, but it didn't take long for it to ring again.
"Hey! Don't sleep! My brother has come to play with you -"
Seeing that glop didn't seem to wake up, Hagrid had to bend down, get close to his ear, open his throat and shout.
"Bang!" "ow -"
After being yelled by Maka several times with the amplifying spell, glop's response to sound is much more sensitive than before. Hagrid's voice suddenly woke up glop from his sleep.
However, glop, who was lying on the ground, was startled by Hagrid's cry, and his head naturally jerked up, and his hard skull hit Hagrid's nose directly.
Hagrid immediately sat down on the ground with his nose covered, and the pain made his tears flow out.
"Wheezing?"
Glop, who had just woken up, looked up at Hagrid, looked blankly left and right, and then put his eyes on Hagrid again.
"... ha, Hagel."
"It's not 'ha ha ger' - it's' Hagrid '." Hagrid stood up with his nose covered and said vaguely in a heavy nasal voice, "good noon, little glop?"
"Ha - Geer!"
Glop seemed to finally wake up from his confusion. He suddenly propped up and shouted his out of tune name at Hagrid. It seemed that he wanted to rush directly at Hagrid.
"Yes, yes, yes, come here, little guy -"
Hagrid bent down and picked up the loop on the ground. When glop completely stood up, he pulled one side of the loop back.
As for the other side of the loop, it's hanging around glop's waist now!
"Come on, young man, you're very energetic when you get up!"
Amid Hagrid's shouts, glop ran, and Hagrid immediately accelerated. With Gloop's sudden run, the knotted rope suddenly tightened and was firmly tied to Gloop's waist.
With a clank, glop sat down on the ground.
"Oh -" Luna, who was standing by, clapped her hands in surprise. "The giant's head is a ball!"
