"My father?" Ron was a little surprised. How could Hagrid's raising of dragons be related to his father? He is just an employee of the Ministry of Magic.
"Yes, I remember that the "Muggle Protection Act" was compiled by Mr. Weasley alone, and as far as I know, this law has a very high application rate, and it is not an insignificant small clause."
Ron looked away from Aini. He remembered that after Charlie graduated, Bill also returned home from Africa. His father and his two brothers drank a lot, and they once boasted that he had left a backdoor in the law.
, which also allows him to legally research and modify Muggle items.
"Because of this, the Ministry of Magic has great flexibility in enforcing laws, and is limited by the current minister's own strength and connections. After the First Wizarding War, the authority of the Ministry of Magic was greatly reduced."
"Fudge turns a blind eye to the actions of some powerful families and wizards."
"But there is nothing that can be done about it. Just like Dumbledore, if Fudge declares him guilty, what can they do if Dumbledore is unwilling to surrender?"
Harry opened his mouth and wanted to say that Dumbledore would not commit crimes, but Ani only made an analogy. In addition to Dumbledore, there are other powerful wizards, and their characters may not be that good.
He seemed to see the shining green light again. Isn't that what Voldemort is like? What can the Ministry of Magic do to him?
"The bill banning dragon breeding was passed more than two hundred years ago, but in fact many large families have secret dragon farms. Even the goblins of Gringotts tame fire dragons as a means of defense for their underground vaults." p>
"An example is the so-called Fire Dragon Sanctuary. The Hebridean Fire Dragon Sanctuary is entirely managed by the MacFasty family. The relationship between this ancient family and the Ministry of Magic is extremely cold, and the Sanctuary is almost the private domain of this family."<
/p>
As an expert in magical biology, Aini knows that dragon breeding can bring huge profits.
Think about it, is there anything worthless about a dragon? Not to mention the value after peeling and cramping, the fallen dragon scales, the growing dragon horns, blood can be drawn regularly, and even dragon dung can be sold for money.
of.
When executing a privately tamed fire dragon, in addition to the official fear of taking the blame, the profit factor is equally important. If it is placed in a protected area, the benefits to the Ministry of Magic will be much smaller.
This is why, despite the Ministry of Magic's ban, the three little ones were able to easily convince Charlie to ask his colleagues to transport Norbert away over thousands of kilometers back and forth.
Along the way? You can also fool the children. For this kind of behavior of flying on a broom for long-distance movement, the portkey means that they are not fools.
Portkey also said that a fire dragon, a magical creature with extremely strong magic resistance and huge size, cannot carry it.
Traveling nearly 10,000 miles back and forth in the sky, and risking being discovered, it would be okay if it were Charlie himself, but it was his friends who came here just for friendship? What is the attitude of the reserve?
"Then can I raise a dragon or not?" Hagrid didn't bother to listen to these meanderings and asked Aini directly.
"Why can't we raise it?" I believe that Hagrid already knew the seriousness of the matter, so Ani also told the solution.
"But you must not let others know now. When you raise the little dragon to a bigger size, just throw it directly into the Forbidden Forest." Aini spread his hands and showed an innocent expression, "Then the Ministry of Magic will know that there are people in the Forbidden Forest.
A wild fire dragon appears, but what can they do to Hogwarts?"
"But you must remember that Norbert is a 'wild' fire dragon and has nothing to do with us. Can you understand?" Ani emphasized the accent on the word 'wild' and waited for a few more instructions.
After a few words, I realized that I was already in mid-air.
"Wow, what a brilliant idea." Hagrid put his arm around Aini with one hand and grabbed the dragon egg with the other hand, spinning it around excitedly.
"Bang", the three little ones hurriedly ducked their heads to avoid the flying table, and were knocked out by Hagrid. It seemed that Hagrid was really happy, holding Aini in his arms as if he wanted to dance a song. p>
But he obviously ignored the height difference. Aini was hugged to Hagrid's chest, his legs dangling helplessly, and he was at least 1 meter above the ground.
At this time, Aini was confused. Who am I, where am I, and what am I doing?
Ani was sure that Hagrid had hugged him at least 100 times and spun him around. He had always been confident of his excellent balance, but after his feet touched the ground, he still spun around twice like a compass before he stabilized his body.
"Ah, haha, sorry, sorry, I'm so happy." Hagrid said awkwardly, "But you have a really good figure."
Realizing that in those few laps just now, my body was so bad that Xuan'er was shaking out of my brain, I couldn't help but patted Aini on the shoulder and praised her.
At this time, Aini also had a hint of resentment in his eyes. Now that you've finished dangling, can you please stop slapping me into the dirt?
"Let's go." With a rolling look at Hagrid, Ani took the dragon egg and put it in his coat pocket, then walked out of the hut.
"Where are we going?" Hagrid chased him out. Isn't hatching the eggs the most important thing now?
"Of course I'm looking for Dumbledore. You don't think you can hide anything from him at Hogwarts, do you?" Ani walked forward without looking back, still asking the old principal to see if there was any dragon egg.
Passive hands and feet, so that he can feel at ease.
☆☆☆☆☆
Hogwarts Headmaster's Office.
"Well, there's no problem. It's a very healthy dragon egg. It looks like it's almost ready to hatch." After careful inspection, Dumbledore handed the egg to Hagrid.
"Hagrid, are you sure that person is Tom?"
Although it was to fulfill Dumbledore's instructions, he secretly found a dragon egg, which still made the honest gamekeeper feel like he was doing private work with a salary.
"Mr. Dumbledore, although he is wearing a hood and covering up the smell, I can never mistake the rancid smell."
Dumbledore encouraged Hagrid a few more words and asked him to go back to hatching eggs.
Watching Hagrid leave the principal's office, Ani discovered that the clown was actually himself.
Fortunately, he hurriedly dragged Hagrid here. He wanted to point out that the person who gave the dragon egg was Voldemort, but he didn't expect that everything was under Dumbledore's control.
"Very keen insight." Looking at Aini's expression, layout master Dumbledore couldn't help but smile.
"Although I don't want to boast, after it caught my attention, there are indeed very few things that can be hidden from me in the UK."
"Including the dragon egg that Hagrid got?" Aini felt that his mind was a little confused, and Dumbledore had been refreshing his understanding of him.
Ani even had a feeling that the old principal was deliberately guiding him to get familiar with him, to understand him, and to outline the image of the principal of Hogwarts and the chief mage of the Wizengamot bit by bit.
"Don't forget, the owner of the Pig's Head Bar is my brother. Although there are some misunderstandings between us, Aberforth is a man who understands the general situation after all."
"What would have happened if Hagrid hadn't come here today, but secretly hatched the dragon egg himself?" Although he already had the answer in his mind, Aini still wanted to hear Dumbledore's side of the story.
"Ani, the Forbidden Forest may be much bigger than you think. Adding a fire dragon is nothing." Dumbledore put the dragon egg detection tool into the box, exhaled in front of him, and turned into a ball of white.
Fog floats in the air.
Soon the white mist began to recede from the center to the surrounding areas, forming a cloud ring.
A map appeared in the middle. The corner on the map was very familiar to Aini. It was the Forbidden Forest area he had explored. However, he had penetrated at least hundreds of miles, but it was just a small corner on the map.<
/p>
The unknown woodland, which is more than ten times the area he has explored, extends to the cloud ring and looks extremely vast.
"But the Forbidden Forest is close to the school after all. Any concealment or unstable behavior may cause harm to the students." Dumbledore waved away the map. He usually showed his friendly side. This was Ainedi.
Once again, I felt the magnanimity of a superior person in Dumbledore.
"If he chooses to hide it, it means that he does not have enough understanding of the dangers of the fire dragon. I will send the fire dragon away before it grows up. I have an old friend who lives in Romania."
