Hearing someone knocking on the door, Hagrid put down what he was doing in confusion, stood up and walked to the door, brushing aside his teeth that were scratching the door excitedly. After opening the wooden door, he looked at the familiar figure standing outside the door and greeted with a smile.
Said: "It's Albert, come in, you haven't seen me for a long time."
Yaya swung his tail enthusiastically, tried to pounce on Albert, and wanted to stick out his tongue to lick Albert's cheek, but was suppressed by him touching his head.
"Hagrid, it's time for you to go!" Albert said without raising his head. His words made Hagrid, who was still smiling enthusiastically, suddenly freeze?
"What's wrong?" Hagrid slowed down the action of making tea for Albert, and looked sideways at Albert, who was chewing his teeth, and asked tentatively, "What happened?"
Hagrid knew very well that Albert would never say such words without any reason. Something bad must have happened, so the other party came to remind him.
"Umbridge's patience has probably reached its limit. You should know very well that after she drove away Principal Dumbledore, the situation between you and Firenze became quite bad."
"Is that true?" Hagrid poured Albert a cup of hot tea and muttered, "That evil old witch. Ever since I came back, she has been trying to find an opportunity to drive me away."
"Firenz's situation is better than yours. At least Umbridge won't touch him for the time being, but if you don't leave now..."
"What will happen if we don't leave?" Hagrid asked curiously.
"Then I'm afraid you'll have to go to Azkaban Prison for a few months." Albert handed the snacks specially prepared for dogs to Yaya, looked up at Hagrid, who looked slightly uneasy, and reminded, "
Umbridge and Fudge have always been interested in where Dumbledore is hiding, even more than catching the escaped Death Eaters."
"They think I know where Dumbledore is hiding?" Hagrid's eyes widened in disbelief, "They want to force me to reveal Dumbledore's whereabouts?"
"Well, that's pretty much it." Albert glanced at the pocket watch in his hand.
"I really wonder what those idiots have in their heads?" Hagrid said contemptuously: "They actually thought I would betray Dumbledore."
"They suspect any wizard who is close to Dumbledore, including you, Professor McGonagall and Potter." Probably noticing Hagrid's mood changes, Albert comforted: "You should worry about yourself more than Potter.
, Potter is smarter than you, he can solve his own problems, but you are different. Umbridge hates it extremely, even "hates" any "half-breed", I mean you, Lupin, Faeron
Ze, she thinks you guys are dangerous. Judging from that guy's drafting of the "Anti-Werewolf Act" in 1993 and his behavior during his tenure as a professor, you'd better not have any expectations. As long as she has someone give you more Veritaserum, you'll be fine.
I can easily pry your mouth open, even if it does great harm to people."
Hagrid opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
"Not long ago, Nearly Headless Nick told me that Umbridge hoped that Cornelius Fudge could sign the education order to expel Peeves." Albert ignored the frustration on Hagrid's face and continued,
"I think wizards have done that throughout the ages, but they failed to drive Peeves away."
"I heard that Peeves has been causing trouble for Umbridge." Hagrid seemed to feel a lot better when he mentioned this matter.
Sure enough, watching Umbridge suffer misfortune can always bring happiness to many people.
"Don't be too happy Hagrid," Albert raised his eyebrows in warning, "Maybe Umbridge's action to expel Peeves is doomed to fail, but that guy looking for a bunch of Aurors to help is definitely not just targeting Peeves.
She would never mind letting those Aurors help her eliminate other troubles in Hogwarts so that she can better control Hogwarts."
Albert closed his pocket watch with a "snap", took out a bag from his robe pocket and placed it on the table in front of Hagrid, "You have a quarter of an hour, take it and your wand with you, the Auror of the Ministry of Magic
Leave here before arriving, believe me, if you are surrounded by a group of Aurors, you won't even have a chance to escape."
After Albert cast a spell to eliminate traces of his presence, he stopped at the door and said: "Remember to bring your umbrella. I think you don't want the Aurors to discover your secret, and don't worry about using magic. They
You won’t know, and you’d better act quickly.”
"Remember, they can always find an excuse to throw you into prison, don't have any expectations." Albert did not stay any longer to avoid giving Hagrid the wrong impression. The new mission was to help Hagrid escape capture. Although the reward was relatively small,
Average, but the advantage is that the task is easier to complete.
"It's... terrible!"
Hagrid looked away, reached out to pick up the bag and stuffed it into his coat pocket, then picked up the umbrella in the corner, called Shang Ya and hurriedly left the hunting lodge.
If it weren't for Graup, Hagrid would have wanted to leave Hogwarts temporarily a long time ago. He knew that Umbridge had always wanted to find an opportunity to fire him in front of the entire school.
But, what should poor Graup do if he leaves school now?
Albert's arrival made Hagrid realize the seriousness of the problem. With Albert's character, he definitely had a premonition of something bad happening, so he asked him to leave school as soon as possible.
In fact, not long after Hagrid left, Umbridge appeared outside the hunting lodge with a group of Aurors.
Umbridge planned to use this opportunity to solve Hagrid's problem. She always believed that the big man must be hiding some ulterior secrets.
"he's not here."
Delis looked at the hunting lodge through the window and found that there was no one inside.
Several Aurors looked at each other, used the unlocking spell to open Hagrid's hunting cabin, and looked at the empty room. Gadwin reached out and touched the kettle on the table and expressed his judgment, "Maybe, he went out for something.
Already."
"No, I think he may have known we were coming, and maybe someone leaked the news." An Auror pointed to the parchment taped on the table, which read: I know you want the Aurors to arrest me, but I don't want to.
I will give you a chance.——Hagrid.
Of course, the parchment was left behind by Albert, just to give Umbridge a heads-up and to make the toad a little more angry.
"Damn... Hagrid must know where Dumbledore is hiding!" Umbridge gritted her teeth and tore up the parchment in her hand, turning to look at Gadwin Robards, "Can you track him?"
"Yes." Gadwin Robards glanced at Umbridge and said, "But it's very time-consuming and may not be successful. It's best not to have too much hope."
"Don't worry, madam, Hagrid can't use magic. We will definitely find and catch him." Delis assured him by patting his chest.
"Don't forget his bloodline, Delis." Gadwin glanced at his colleagues and reminded him, "You'd better bring more people with you, and don't expect Hagrid to catch him without a fight and knock him out.
Just go back."
"Of course I remember, don't worry, leave it to me, ma'am, I promise to send Hagrid to Azkaban."
"Hagrid is only a suspect now, not a prisoner. Before confirming his crime, be sure to use your discretion." Gadwin frowned and reminded.
Umbridge raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Gadwin, but didn't say anything.
Half of the Aurors were divided and followed Delis to hunt down Hagrid. The other half followed Umbridge into the castle to deal with Peeves' problem. In order not to make the same mistake again, Umbridge took them in personally.
If Albert Anderson dares to jump out and stop him, she will let him know that being the duel champion is nothing special.
However, Umbridge did not know that everything that happened after she entered Hogwarts with the Aurors was under Albert's watchful eye.
A quarter of an hour ago, Albert, who was taking a Transfiguration class, suddenly noticed that the wrist rope on his wrist seemed to be faintly hot.
There are several gems of various styles strung on the rope. Each gem has a unique purpose. One of them is a tool he uses to communicate with himself in an emergency.
That's right, use it with yourself.
After using the time converter, it is better not to meet each other, but there is no problem in passing the message.
When the gems on your wrist rope provide you with an early warning, it means that something has happened.
Albert used the atlas to figure out the situation immediately.
We even saw Umbridge leading a group of Aurors into Hagrid's hunting lodge, but Hagrid had already left early.
As for the new mission, Umbridge will send people to hunt down Hagrid.
Albert was not worried about Hagrid being caught at all, because he believed that he could help Hagrid get rid of the annoying group of pursuers.
Maybe, they were all wiped out as soon as they left Hogwarts.
In fact, Delis and his group did run into trouble when they used the tracking spell to follow the traces left by Hagrid.
It should be said that they were subjected to a shameful attack as soon as they left Hogwarts.
Without warning, two red lights appeared out of thin air, and the two Aurors at the back were directly knocked down by the spell.
"Damn it, we were attacked by a sneak attack. Savage and Williamson fell down." Tonks heard the sound of falling and shouted loudly.
She was originally thinking about how to delay Hagrid's time, but now it seemed that she had no problem. Just now, someone launched a sneak attack from behind when they were unprepared.
Quietly, without any warning.
"Where is the enemy? I don't see anyone."
After the two companions fell without warning, the Aurors who were tracking Hagrid with all their strength had to stop and be on guard against spells that might strike at any time.
Albert did not try any more sneak attacks, but secretly observed the level of the Aurors.
They form a defensive formation as soon as they encounter a sneak attack, and use collective strength to resist attacks that may come from anywhere at any time. It is not difficult to see that these Aurors are indeed well-trained, but that's all.
"The enemy is invisible, force him out." Delis waved his wand and shouted loudly, "The human form appears."
Several Manifestation Spells swept around, and a figure emerged from the void.
"The enemy is there, I see him!"
I don't know who shouted, and then I saw a disarming curse flying towards me.
"Stop looking down on others."
The Auror blocked two disarming spells in a row, but was directly hit by the third stun spell and fainted.
The Aurors could not clearly see the appearance of the attacker, because they could only see a very blurry outline of a human figure.
Delis really couldn't understand why the Humanoid Appearance Spell didn't completely expose the opponent, but he didn't have the heart to explore these issues, because the enemy didn't seem to care about his exposure and had already launched another attack on them.
The Aurors' spell failed, and the enemy in front disappeared without warning.
"Apparition, that person is nearby."
"I see him, on the left."
"He disappeared again."
"Damn it, who is this guy!"
Seeing his own attack being easily blocked by the opponent, Delis felt a strong sense of frustration and powerlessness in his heart.
Because his colleagues were being knocked down easily, using spells they were familiar with.
Whether it was the Stunning Curse, the Disarming Curse, or the Iron Armor Curse, the guy opposite was extremely skillful in using it. In conjunction with the Apparition, he could always easily block the Aurors' attacks, seize the opportunity to disarm their wands, or knock people out.
, it’s just like a rough and tumble game between adults and children.
"Damn, damn."
Seeing his colleagues being knocked down by the stun spell one by one, until he was the only one left, Delis felt extremely humiliated.
He knows that he is no match for the opponent.
He also knew he needed more help.
Therefore, Delis planned to find reinforcements. If they were really knocked unconscious by that guy here, then they would probably become the laughing stock of the entire magic world.
Before Delis apparated and left, he waved his wand to create a defensive barrier to buy himself time.
However, in just a moment, Delis was shocked to find that his defensive barrier was actually shattered. A spell hit his chest at an alarming speed, leaving Delis who had originally tried to apparate.
"You bastard..."
Delis was hit by the coma spell, fell heavily to the ground, and passed out.
"It's worse than expected. Is it because of the sneak attack?"
Albert quickly denied this. Maybe it was because of the sneak attack, but Aurors are not specialized in fighting. Their level may be higher than most wizards, but they are still a little behind those wizards who participated in the duel competition. Maybe they
More emphasis is placed on tacit cooperation.
At least, it performed pretty well when dealing with emergencies.
After finally glancing at the Auror lying on the ground, Albert apparated directly and left the scene of the crime. He needed to find a place to remove his disguise and return to Hogwarts.
As for Hagrid's problem, the Aurors couldn't find him for a while.
Next was the matter in the castle, but he didn't need to worry about that, or he didn't need to worry about it now.
After reappearing at the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Albert waved his wand to remove his disguise. After his hair, face and clothes took on a new look, he walked towards Hagrid's hunting cabin under the cover of the Disillusionment Curse. Where would he wait?
