It's a sunny day, perfect for watching a Quidditch match.
At 10:30 in the morning, Albert and others set out from the castle and walked through the snow on the road to the stadium stands. A large number of students had gathered here, and everyone was talking loudly about the outcome of the game.
"Good morning, Hagrid." Albert greeted Hagrid, who was holding binoculars.
"Thank you for the hat." Hagrid patted the woolen hat on his head, "I never thought I would receive a gift at Christmas."
"You can take it as a gift in return." Albert said with a smile.
"Return gift?" Hagrid asked in confusion, "What return gift?"
"Guardian branch, unicorn tail hair." Albert raised his wrist, and there was a delicate white bracelet on it.
"What's this?"
"The bracelet that brings good luck, I made it with the unicorn tail hair and the guardian tree you gave me." Albert explained with a smile, "It can bring good luck to the wearer."
"Brings good luck to the wearer?" Hagrid muttered quietly, "I have never heard that unicorn tail hair and the guardian tree can bring good luck to the wearer."
Next to them, Fred, George and Lee Jordan couldn't help but laugh.
You like to fool others, now you are exhausted!
Hagrid coughed slightly, "But your rope is very beautifully woven."
"I mean the symbols above." Albert picked up two pendants polished from the guardian tree and showed them to the three of them. They were engraved with the rune symbols that Albert showed them a while ago.
"You really carved that strange symbol on it. Are you sure this thing is really effective?" George asked suspiciously.
"Who knows?" Albert shrugged, "Maybe it can really bring good luck, then you'll make money."
Originally, Albert planned to make a protective bracelet.
However, after engraving several beads one after another, I broke it, so I gave up temporarily and chose the simplest good luck symbol to engrave.
As for whether this thing can bring him good luck, Albert actually doesn't know.
Anyway, when he tried to use his own blood to activate the rune symbols on the beads, he didn't feel anything special.
It probably failed.
However, Albert still wore it on his body, just to verify whether the rune symbols were really valid.
"Gryffindor vs. Hufflepuff, does anyone want to place a bet?" At this time, several senior students came over with wooden boxes for bets, and the shouts interrupted Amber.
Special thoughts.
The twins seemed to be planning to place a bet, as Lee Jordan next to him had already taken out a silver coin.
"Who do you want to bet on?" The three of them looked at Albert.
"I bet that Gryffindor will win by catching the Golden Snitch." Albert took out a Silver Siko and made a bet.
"The same goes for us." The three of them handed the money to each other in unison.
"Many people are betting on this. The odds are not high. If we win against Hufflepuff, we will give 3 times the odds." The student said.
"No, just Gryffindor."
Albert didn't care whether he could win money or not, he just had fun and it was purely for the atmosphere.
"What's your name?" The senior student took out his notebook and quill and looked at the group of people.
"His name is Albert Anderson." George answered for Albert.
"Albert Anderson." The senior student scrawled some words and handed it to Albert. "After the game, we will be at the exit. If you win the bet, take the paper
Find us."
Albert looked at the three roommates and said speechlessly, "You are not afraid of losing money."
"We believe in your luck." The three of them said in unison. Since Albert made the bet, although the probability is low, they are actually still willing to take the gamble.
"My luck?" Albert couldn't help rolling his eyes and said, "Just don't blame me for losing money."
"We won't," Fred said, "We don't think the Gryffindor team, which has been practicing so hard, will lose."
"Gambling is not a good habit." Hagrid reminded him with a raised eyebrow.
"This is just for the atmosphere, and I still have this. I have good luck." Albert said confidently.
"I just thought you would bet 10 Galleons."
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Albert couldn't help rolling his eyes and said: "This kind of private gambling is never reliable. If I bet 10 Galleons and win, the other party can give me back what I won.
come back?"
"I guess I can't get it out." Fred thought for a while and replied.
"Well, it seems that you know what you are doing." Hagrid nodded. There is nothing wrong with gambling occasionally.
"The last time he bet on who was the Minister of Magic, he won 100 Galleons." Lee Jordan explained, "This guy's luck is frightening."
Hagrid opened his mouth wide in surprise and threw the idea he just had on the ground until it was crushed to pieces.
"Ahem, Hagrid, which pair do you think will win?" Albert asked.
"Of course Gryffindor." Hagrid said angrily. "It's best not to bet. No one can win forever."
Ahem, I know this very well.
In fact, Albert actually won the bet, and Gryffindor finally defeated Hufflepuff.
This exciting game only lasted an hour, and Charlie successfully caught the Golden Snitch.
"Won."
"Won."
"Ah, the note flew away."
In the end, Hagrid reached out to help them grab the parchment. Fortunately, there was no wind today.
"Give the parchment to Albert, you unreliable guy." Lee Jordan took the parchment from Fred and gave it to Albert.
"Accident, that's just an accident." Fred said with a smile. He was sweating just now.
"Thank you, Hagrid." Albert thanked Hagrid.
"You're welcome."
Albert and others found the two senior students at the entrance and got four silver coins from them as rewards.
"Look, my lucky bracelet still brings me luck." Albert blinked and said, "Those rune symbols are still useful."
"You have good luck!" Fred couldn't help rolling his eyes. Winning the bet made them all feel good.
"By the way, did you enter the forest from this way last time?" Albert glanced at the nearby forest and asked suddenly.
Fred and George's expressions froze, Hagrid was right next to him, bastard, don't mention this.
"Into the forest?" Hagrid looked at the four people in front of him warily.
"Hagrid, can you take us into the forest to gain some knowledge?" Albert looked in the direction of the Forbidden Forest and asked Hagrid beside him.
"That's not okay." Hagrid flatly refused.
Albert didn't feel embarrassed at all about betraying Fred and George. "The two of them sneaked into the woods and said that the woods next to the school were very ordinary."
"As expected..."
"You guy." The twins glared at Albert, this guy actually betrayed them so simply.
"Ahem, I heard from others that there are many secrets hidden in the Forbidden Forest. It's up to you to take us around and satisfy our curiosity." Albert winked at Hagrid and said, "From now on, we
Then you won’t be curious about what’s in that forest.”
Hagrid was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking about something, and finally shook his head in refusal.
"Can't you ensure our safety?" Albert asked.
"The school stipulates that students are not allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest." Hagrid said.
"Actually, I think Dumbledore's ban on others entering the forest will arouse the curiosity of the students." Albert blinked and said, "As far as I know, many people have quietly entered the forest."
"Many people?" Hagrid glared at the Weasley brothers.
"Ahem, they are just an example." Albert explained, "We just want to satisfy our curiosity, and you don't often go into the woods."
"Okay, it's just this once, it won't happen next time." Hagrid thought for a while and agreed, "Follow me, don't run around."
"Look! The lucky charm works pretty well, right?" Albert winked at the stunned three people.
The three of them never thought that Albert could actually convince Hagrid to take them into the woods.
