"What's its name?" Albert asked as he put the sandwich in his mouth and finished it, stretching out his hands to gently rub the hound's head.
"Fang." Hagrid replied subconsciously.
"Ya Ya? It feels like this big dog's momentum has suddenly disappeared. How about calling him Spike?" Albert casually gave Ya Ya a new name.
"I think it's nice to call me Fang." Hagrid stopped cleaning the mink and shook his head to reject Albert's kindness.
"My name is Albert Anderson. Are you also a professor at Hogwarts?" Albert asked knowingly.
"No, I am the gamekeeper." Hagrid continued shaking his head.
"Does the hunting ground refer to the forest over there?" Albert raised his finger and pointed in the direction of the Forbidden Forest. Without waiting for Hagrid to answer, he continued, "I heard that there are werewolves in the forest. Is this true?"
"Are you a Ravenclaw student?" Hagrid asked uncertainly.
Albert glanced sideways behind him and snickered at the three of them, and replied: "No, we are all Gryffindor students."
"Oh, Gryffindor students." Hagrid suddenly said seriously, "I won't let you go into the woods..."
"Ahem, Albert, how did you know this dog would rub its head for you? I just thought it was quite fierce." George quickly diverted Hagrid's attention.
The three of them all came over and started rubbing Yaya's dog's head.
"Intuition, probably. I also raise cats myself, but I just didn't bring them to school." Albert casually found an excuse to stall, "By the way, Mr. Gamekeeper, do you mind letting me take a photo another day?"
"You can call me Hagrid." Hagrid did not refuse, he just suddenly recalled some past events.
"Well, Mr. Hagrid. Okay, Hagrid..." Albert quietly brought the relationship between the two parties closer.
"What are you taking pictures for?" Hagrid asked.
"I want my family to know about my life at Hogwarts. They are Muggles and have no idea about Hogwarts." Albert explained.
"It's best not to reveal too much about the magical world to Muggles, as that might get you into trouble." Hagrid reminded him with a frown.
"Oh, I understand." Albert looked at Hagrid, thought for a while and then said, "Because of the confidentiality law?"
"You know this?" Hagrid was a little surprised how Albert knew about the Law of Secrecy. A Muggle wizard who had just entered Hogwarts should have a very limited understanding of the magical world.
Albert briefly told Hagrid about Truman's misfortune.
The gamekeeper was stunned after hearing this. He whispered: "I don't know much about the secrecy law. I only know that underage wizards will be warned if they use magic in front of Muggle family members. If they knowingly use magic in front of Muggle family members, they will be warned.
In the residential area, using magic in front of Muggles is a criminal act and will result in direct expulsion."
"Are there any cases of expulsion from Hogwarts?" Albert found out that he had indeed tricked Truman. No wonder it was an expulsion letter instead of a warning letter.
"As far as I know, there shouldn't be." Hagrid wasn't very clear either.
"Your incident is a special case." Fred cleared his throat and explained, "I can only say that the unlucky Truman bumped into you accidentally."
"Hmm!" Albert thought for a moment and understood the reason. There should be some young Muggle wizards who had received the warning, but they were usually frightened by the letter and did not dare to use magic at the risk of being expelled.
"By the way, Hagrid, are there any dangerous creatures in the Forbidden Forest? Why doesn't Dumbledore allow new students to enter the Forbidden Forest?" Albert brought the topic back to the topic that everyone was interested in now.
"There are many dangerous magical animals in the Forbidden Forest." Hagrid nodded.
"Like a werewolf?" Albert asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yes, werewolf."
"Didn't you say that if you are bitten by a werewolf, you will turn into a werewolf? Dumbledore actually allowed students to have werewolves as neighbors?" Albert raised his doubts.
"Werewolves are deep in the Forbidden Forest and will not easily appear around the school, and..." When Hagrid spoke, his eyes were a little averted, and it was obvious that he felt guilty.
"Hagrid, have you ever seen a unicorn?"
…
…
"What question is this?" The three people whispered beside them.
"Ten... or twelve?"
However, the three of them still admired Albert. They had all noticed that Albert had almost made the situation in the Forbidden Forest very clear by asking questions.
They also discovered that Hagrid had a special liking for fire dragons. When Albert talked about fire dragons, Hagrid was particularly excited when he introduced the fire dragons.
As for the woods outside the Forbidden Forest, there is actually no danger. Students occasionally have classes there, but if you continue deeper into the Forbidden Forest, you may encounter centaurs, werewolves, unicorns and other magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest.
Seeing that Albert had a soft spot for unicorns, Hagrid gave him a small bundle of unicorn tail feathers and warned the four of them not to try to enter the Forbidden Forest before they left.
Albert stopped and suddenly turned around and asked: "Hagrid, are there any guardian trees in the forest?"
"Guardian tree? You mean the sorbus tree?" Hagrid asked in confusion.
"Yes." Albert nodded and said, "This tree has been mentioned in both the herbal medicine class and the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. It can really ward off evil spirits...I mean, repel dark magic creatures?"
"It does help." Hagrid nodded.
"Um...can you help me...I mean I want a small section of the dead branch of the sorbus tree."
"What do you want that thing for?" Hagrid asked suspiciously.
"I'm planning to make a gift for my sister. I heard that the Dharma Protector Tree has a protective effect. I can pay some Galleons." Albert said sheepishly.
"No, I'll go into the forest to help you take a look when I have time, but don't expect too much. Bowtruckles generally don't allow people to touch the pineapple trees casually." Hagrid understood what Albert meant.
Does the pineapple tree protect your family?
That's great.
"Thank you, Hagrid." Albert said gratefully, and he began to think about what Christmas gift to give him.
"You're welcome." Hagrid scratched his head, feeling embarrassed.
Like Fang, Hagrid is obviously not as ferocious as he appears.
"you are great."
On the way back to the castle, the three of them all gave Albert a thumbs up and praised him.
"Do you want it?" Albert asked, taking out a small bundle of unicorn tail hairs from his pocket.
"Forget it, what do you want this for?"
"As a birthday gift for my sister, she must have never seen unicorn tail hair!" Albert has already thought about it. If there is no wood from the pineapple tree, he will knit a bracelet with unicorn tail hair and give it to her.
Nia makes a birthday present.
"Birthday gift?" Several people looked at each other.
"By the way, what birthday present did we give Ginny this year?" Fred suddenly asked his twin brother.
"Licorice Wand."
"What about Ron?" Fred asked again.
"Fudge flies and cockroach skewers," George said without thinking.
Albert suddenly felt that it was not easy for Ron to deal with such a brother.
