Chapter 409 Gap

"Hagrid?"

Albert reached out and knocked on the wooden door of the hunting lodge.

After a while, there were some noises in the room. When the wooden door just opened a gap, Yaya got the dog's head out first, and excitedly wagged its big tail to wander around Albert.

"Come in, I have something to ask you."

Hagrid seemed to have not slept all night, his eyes were bloodshot, his hair was disheveled, and he opened the door with a slightly hoarse voice.

"you are sick?"

Seeing Hagrid's appearance, Albert couldn't help raising his eyebrows and asked.

"No, I just didn't sleep well last night."

After Albert entered the room, Hagrid poked his head out of the door and looked around, and closed the door again after making sure no one was there. He also pulled the curtains on the window smoothly. There was a roaring fire burning in the room, the copper pot above it was steaming, and there was Hagrid's favorite rock cake on the table.

"You can't sleep all night because of Nicole Flamel's affairs!"

Albert took off the cloak on his body, shook the snow on it and hung it on the hanger next to him, squatted down and began to rub the dog's head with teeth, without looking at Hagrid's expression at the moment.

Actually, Albert knew that the expression on Hagrid's face was very exciting even without looking at it.

In fact, Hagrid's face was full of astonishment. He didn't expect Albert to directly mention this matter.

"Harry came to see you yesterday." Albert said with certainty.

"How do you know?" Hagrid blurted out almost without thinking.

"The day before yesterday, the three of them asked me about Nicole Flamel, but I didn't tell them." Albert didn't care about Hagrid's surprised expression. With a wave of the pot, the copper pot that had already boiled immediately flew over and began to make tea automatically in front of them.

"Then how did you know that the thing hidden in the school was the Philosopher's Stone?" Hagrid asked in a low voice.

"Because Harry talked about Nicole Flamel."

"I don't believe it." Hagrid said don't fool me.

"Nicole Flamel and Dumbledore are friends, and it's recorded on the Chocolate Frog card." Seeing Hagrid's suspicious expression, Albert took a sip from his teacup and said with a smile, "Well, actually I Met Nicole Flamel. I just went to him for a few days this summer, and Dumbledore took me there, and I heard he was in a bit of trouble... Well, you know, some things are actually not hard to guess. "

At this moment, Hagrid was dumbfounded, and stood there stupidly, as if he didn't know what to do.

"What did you just say?" He asked repeatedly as if he didn't understand Albert's words.

"I said I'm friends with Nicole Flamel, so you don't have to worry about me getting the idea of ​​the Sorcerer's Stone." Albert raised his head, looked at Hagrid rather helplessly and said, "Actually, you don't have to Worry, even if I really have the idea of ​​the Sorcerer's Stone, do you really think I can hide it from Dumbledore, successfully **** the Sorcerer's Stone and escape?"

Hagrid's expression froze instantly.

yes!

Could it be true that if you snatched the Philosopher's Stone and ran away, then you won't be able to go to school?

Moreover, can you really grab the Philosopher's Stone and escape?

Obviously unlikely.

This is Hogwarts!

"One more thing, Hagrid, how do you know that the Sorcerer's Stone is real?" Albert had a look of helplessness on your face, "You already know that someone is eyeing the Sorcerer's Stone, and you will take him out As bait?"

"Bait?" Hagrid was a little confused, feeling that his IQ didn't seem to be enough.

"Of course it was to lure out the thief who wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone." Albert said naturally.

"But... wait, you said a thief, Dumbledore put the Sorcerer's Stone in the school just to lure the thief to take the bait?" Hagrid looked confused, he couldn't understand what this operation was.

"It should be the mysterious man, or his minions are targeting the Sorcerer's Stone, so Dumbledore is going to use the Sorcerer's Stone to lure it out." Albert briefly said his guess, "As for whether the Sorcerer's Stone is real or not?" It's really hard to say, after all, most people have never seen the Philosopher's Stone, even if it's a fake estimate, they can't tell the difference."

"You mean the Philosopher's Stone in school is fake?" Hagrid's hands were trembling slightly.

"I don't know." Albert shrugged and said that this was just his own guess. Since he knew someone was going to steal it, why would he take the real risk?

There is absolutely no need for this!

"You're right, I actually..." Hagrid was about to say, when he saw Albert make a booing gesture, and he pointed out the window, Hagrid walked over suspiciously, when he opened the window , heard the sound of human footsteps.

He froze.

"It's Harry and the others. When I came, I was targeted by them." Albert opened the task panel, and there was a task with a crisis of confidence showing that it had been completed.

This quest appeared when I received a letter from Hagrid yesterday. The content is probably that Hagrid had doubts about him because of the Sorcerer's Stone. He needs to dispel Hagrid's doubts. The experience of the quest is only 500, plus 10 Hagrid's points. Favorability.

"You mean Harry?" Hagrid's expression changed, and at this moment there was a knock on the door.

"Don't worry, they just arrived." Albert said calmly.

Hagrid felt relieved, and when he went to open the door, he saw Harry, Ron, and Hermione all wearing cloaks outside the door.

"Come in!" He said leisurely.

All three of them showed a little embarrassment on their faces.

"Albert, you should know each other." Hagrid introduced. "These three are Harry, Ron and Hermione."

"We already know Hagrid." Harry said dryly.

"Okay, Hagrid, I'm leaving first. I'll come over to have tea with you some other day." Albert took up the cloak and put it on himself, nodded to Harry and the three of them, and then left on his own .

"What is he doing here?"

"Discuss something." Hagrid looked like he didn't want to talk more.

"What about Nicole Flamel?" Hermione asked tentatively.

"This matter has nothing to do with you, well, **** it, leave Nicole Flamel alone." Hagrid said rather helplessly: "I hope you didn't come to me for this matter. Don't talk about curiosity, That will kill you."

"What?"

"Curiosity will kill the cat." Hagrid took a sip of his tea and said, "I don't want to discuss this matter anymore."

"Sorry Hagrid." Hermione noticed that Hagrid was upset and apologized immediately.

"Don't think too much about some things. Do you think someone can steal what Dumbledore left in the school, or are you planning to make it?" Hagrid looked at the three of them interrogatively, "Other things I will discuss." I don't want to say it, but I don't want you to doubt Dumbledore's judgment, that will only insult your IQ."

Harry originally wanted to say something, but after seeing Hagrid's gaze, he felt a little guilty, and quickly shut up. Both Hermione and Ron had embarrassing expressions on their faces.
