Chapter 477 already knew
The hatching of dragon eggs is a slow process. According to the description in the book, the dragon eggs need to be roasted in the fire. This process is imitating the breath of fire dragons. Female dragons usually use their breath to warm dragon eggs. Really It is amazing that the dragon eggs will not be roasted by the high temperature of the flame and become roasted dragon eggs.
If Hagrid accidentally cooked the dragon egg, Albert didn't mind tasting the roasted dragon egg.
When this idea first appeared in Albert's mind, he found that his task panel actually triggered a new task: Gourmet.
Looked at the task, then at the dragon egg, and then at the reward given by the task. After thinking about it for three seconds, Albert simply gave up.
If he secretly ate the dragon egg, Hagrid would probably be so sad that he passed out!
He is not a demon who will do anything for the task.
Eating dragon eggs or something, let’s find other opportunities later!
Actually, if he didn't know that the egg would eventually hatch into a dragon, Albert would have thought that the dragon egg was cooked.
There is no way, the surface of the dragon egg has been roasted black by Hagrid.
Hagrid needs to roast the dragon eggs in the fire at intervals every day, and it can't be roasted in the fire for too long.
He himself is not troublesome at all, instead he happily hums a ditty, enjoys the process of hatching a dragon, and has already begun to regard himself as a mother. Even Albert can't accept this style of painting, and can't help but raise his hand Cover your face.
During the Easter holiday, Albert would run to Hagrid whenever he was free, to help Hagrid make follow-up preparations for raising the dragon, and prevent Hagrid from messing himself up after the baby dragon hatched from the dragon eggs.
According to the introduction in the book, Hagrid bought a lot of brandy and raised a lot of chickens in the chicken coop. Brandy mixed with chicken blood is very suitable for the newborn baby dragons.
As for whether Harry and his two friends had discovered that Hagrid was hatching dragon eggs, Albert was really not sure.
Every time he went to Hagrid, he didn't see Harry, Ron or Hermione.
Seeing that the Easter holiday was coming to an end, Albert was going to find an opportunity to ask Hagrid if anyone else knew about it.
As a result, before he even asked, Hermione took the initiative to come to him.
"You said Hagrid wants to raise a dragon?" Albert looked at the girl who hesitated to speak in front of him in puzzlement, and he could probably guess what was going on, and comforted him softly, "He said a long time ago I want to raise a dragon."
"Hagrid... got a dragon egg from somewhere, I mean, what will happen to Hagrid if someone finds out he's illegally raising dragons in his cabin?" Hermione took a deep breath and tried to Form the appropriate words in your mind, "Your prophecy has come true.
"It is estimated that there will be a large fine, and then I will go to the wizard prison Azkaban to stay for a while." Albert thought for a while and answered Hermione's question.
Hermione opened her mouth, and the expression on her face became more disturbed, but she also knew that it was basically impossible for Hagrid to give up hatching the dragon eggs.
After repeated hesitation, Hermione mustered up the courage to discuss this matter with Albert, because Albert had predicted this matter long ago.
She also discussed it with Harry and Ron, but she couldn't get any better solution.
Hermione is not Harry, nor Ron, she thinks more than the two partners.
Hagrid would never be able to hide the matter of raising the dragon. Even after the dragon was hatched, it only took a month, so it was very difficult to hide it from other people.
"Also, you shouldn't mention this to me here. The more people know about it, the more troublesome it will be. You should keep it a secret." Albert reminded Hermione kindly, "Actually, I Hagrid was warned at the beginning, and told him not to let others know."
"Wait, didn't you already..." Hermione looked at Albert happily.
Albert raised his finger to his mouth and made a hush.
"You don't have to worry about this matter, just ask Principal Dumbledore to send it away." Albert said his solution.
"Principal Dumbledore also knows about this?"
"Of course I don't know, I can only confess to him then."
"Then what happens to Hagrid?"
"Probably a few months' salary will be deducted!" Albert said uncertainly: "The probability of being kicked out of school should not be very high."
"Is there really no other way?" Hermione didn't want Hagrid to be driven away, she knew that Hagrid liked Hogwarts very much, and this was his home.
"I told Hagrid about this at the beginning." Albert looked at Hermione helplessly: "He insisted on doing that, and I have nothing to do, even if I was kicked out of Hogwarts, That is also the consequence that Hagrid has to bear. Well, you don't discuss this matter as much, and your sense of secrecy is too bad, and it will cause trouble for Hagrid sooner or later."
Looking at Hermione's leaving back, Albert shook his head involuntarily, turned and left.
…
"You mean, Albert already knew that Hagrid was hatching a dragon?" Harry and Ron had surprised expressions on their faces after hearing Hermione's narration.
"Wait, Hermione, you told Albert about this." Harry was a little puzzled why Hermione would do this. Although Harry had a good impression of Albert, he always felt like telling Albert about this. The others were bad, and he was also worried that too many people knowing about it would get Hagrid into trouble.
"Albert predicted a long time ago that Hagrid would raise a dragon, and I told you about it." Hermione looked at Harry rather helplessly, she knew that the other party had forgotten, "Also, Albert Hagrid's friend, he has a better brain than us, and he may be able to find a solution, and you don't want Hagrid to get into trouble because of it?"
If there is no good way, Hermione actually doesn't want to do this, but I have to say that having a reliable senior can really help them solve a lot of troubles.
"What did he say." Ron was even more curious about Albert's solution to this matter.
"He said he would ask the headmaster to send it away." Hermione said with a complicated expression.
"This..." The two couldn't help but looked at each other. It was the same as if they hadn't said this method. They just didn't want others to know, so they didn't know what to do.
"If the principal finds out that Hagrid has raised a dragon, will Hagrid be expelled for this?" Harry expressed his doubts.
"Albert said that with the headmaster's personality, Hagrid would be deducted a little salary at most, and the chance of being driven away is not high." Hermione raised her index finger to her lips and made a hush motion, "He thinks our Secrecy **** and I think he's right that we're better off not discussing it elsewhere so more people don't know about it."
Ron was a little unhappy at this statement, and retorted, "We will definitely keep this secret."
After that, Harry and Ron stopped discussing the dragon eggs.
Of course, there is also a reason that Harry pays more attention to the Philosopher's Stone. According to what he learned from Hagrid, Snape is also involved in the protection of the Philosopher's Stone.
Harry thought that Snape might have figured out what magic traps the other teachers had set up besides Quirrell's magic traps and how to pass Lu Wei.
Ron and Hermione reserved opinions on whether Snape was going to steal the Philosopher's Stone. After all, Headmaster Dumbledore is not an idiot.
However, Harry didn't know that Snape actually knew that the famous Harry was doubting himself, and even labeled him arrogant and nosy in his heart.
