256 Visit and Hagrid
It was impossible for Lily and Snape to stay with Callan in the hospital all the time, and the same was true for Steve and Scamander. Madam Pomfrey had graciously given them enough visiting time, but the gradually increasing number of students Her patience gradually wore away.
"This kid needs a break!"
Madam Pomfrey blocked the door, roaring, "No one is allowed in again!"
Greta and her roommates were startled. After quietly glancing at Karan for a few times, they ran away quickly.
Karan breathed a sigh of relief silently. He noticed that the roommates had some cards with unknown contents in their hands, and he finally didn’t have to deal with them anymore.
But the next visitor was not so easily blocked.
Hagrid's eyes were redder than Lily's. He was holding a bouquet of wild flowers picked from nowhere in his hand, and his shoulders were shaking.
Madam Pomfrey had no choice but to step aside.
"Only 5 minutes." She said towards Hagrid's back.
Hagrid stood helpless holding the bouquet of wild flowers. Madam Pomfrey conjured a bottle in time and inserted the wild flowers inside.
Karan stared at Hagrid, who was like a giant. He didn't look very good now. His head was wrapped in a thick bandage, his face was bruised and swollen, and his moleskin coat was hastily sewn together. of.It was obvious that Hagrid's workmanship was very poor, as the coat seemed ready to tear at any moment.
"if you do not mind,"
Karan suddenly said: "Maybe I can help you sew this coat. My skills are obvious to all. If you don't believe me, you can ask Snape. I helped him with his old clothes..."
Before Karan could finish speaking, Hagrid burst into tears.
"It's all my fault, this idiot!"
He covered his face with his hands and cried: "If it weren't for me, Professor Kettleburn wouldn't have thought of secretly taking Qiqi to the Forbidden Forest, and ended up causing you such serious injuries! You almost died I'm dead! First Aragog last year, and then Qiqi this year, I'm not a qualified gamekeeper at all, I should be kicked out and leave Hogwarts!"
"Hagrid." Karan smiled and comforted him and said, "It's not your fault. Last year we violated the school rules first and sneaked into the Forbidden Forest. This year... who would have thought of Qi? Will Qi suddenly become like that? You know, not even Professor Kettleburn can stop it."
"But, but you almost died!" Hagrid's sobbing did not stop because Karan took the lead in admitting his mistake. Instead, he became even more sad: "And Qiqi and Aragog...oh , Oh my god! They are so docile, how could they suddenly become like this!"
"Okay, Hagrid!" Callan used his good hand to slap Hagrid hard on the arm - the only place he could reach without getting up.
"Don't be sad anymore. I heard Aragog returned to their homeland and he will like it there."
"Would you like a glass of pumpkin juice?"
Hagrid wiped his nose with his hand, reached for a bottle of pumpkin juice, and drank it all in two gulps.
Then he looked at Karan and forced a smile.
"You are much stronger than I thought."
Karan stretched out his hand and wiped his lips twice. He smiled indifferently and said: "I'm still staying here well, and aren't all magical animals like this? There are always some... naughty moments. There was a little owl trying to peck my finger in a shop in Diagon Alley."
"What a cute little guy." Hagrid commented fondly, and his mood seemed to have improved a lot.
"It's indeed cute." Karan nodded and said.
"When it's in my hands, it might become even cuter."
Before Hagrid could understand the meaning of this sentence, Karan suddenly asked: "By the way, can you tell me about Aragog? This is the first time I have seen an Acromantula, and all of a sudden I’ve seen so many.”
Hagrid looked at him doubtfully and asked, "Aren't you scared? I heard that you were almost killed..."
Before he could finish speaking, Karan interrupted him and said: "That's how other people feel. If it wasn't because I like magical animals, how could I take the initiative to join the Fire Crab Club?"
"Don't forget, Steve, the future magizoologist, is still my roommate."
"Oh!" Hagrid looked very surprised: "I didn't expect you actually thought so..."
He looked around the room, as if wary of anyone nearby.Fortunately, Madam Pomfrey was not in the ward, and the other beds were empty.
"If you must know..." he lowered his voice hesitantly.
"Of course!" Karan said with interest, his eyes full of curiosity.
Hagrid finally smiled, his beard twitching up and down.
"That happened when I was at Hogwarts."
He smiled and said: "Aragog was given to me by a tourist before he hatched from the egg - many people know that I like those cute little guys."
Karan didn't seem to have the slightest objection to the word "cute". Instead, he nodded in agreement, the curiosity in his eyes deepening.
This made Hagrid's interest in telling stories even more intense.
"Although I was just a student at the time, I couldn't just give it up, so I had to keep the hatched Aragog in a cupboard in the castle, and I would secretly hide some of it every time I ate. Bread crumbs and feed them to Aragog secretly."
"It was a really fun time."
Hagrid recalled longingly: "At that time, I always had endless things to do. Every day I thought about making Aragog grow up quickly, and I could secretly go to the Forbidden Forest to wrestle with trolls. They are so powerful. , but being stupid, I win every time!”
It was only then that Karan's eyes gradually became weird.
But Hagrid seemed to be thinking of something sad and didn't notice the change in Karan.
"Then I heard you were fired?" Karan asked tentatively.
"Is it because of the Forbidden Forest thing?"
Hagrid shook his head sadly, and Karan could see that he suddenly became a little scared now.
"Aragog will never hurt anyone." Hagrid said sadly: "This is what we agreed on, and at that time I would visit it secretly almost every day. Those things... can't be It does.”
When he said this, he suddenly paused, and then looked at Karan at a loss, obviously thinking of what happened last semester.
"of course."
Karan said with a smile.
"I trust Aragog, too."
