Following behind Harry, Elwyn, Ron and Hermione also walked into the hut.
Fang pounced towards them, Tao Wu barked and wanted to lick Elwyn's ear.
Elwyn avoided Fang and looked around. He hadn't been here for a few days, but he couldn't believe that this was the familiar Hagrid's wooden hut.
The scene inside had changed too much. Ron and Hermione were also very surprised.
Harry ignored the empty wine bottles and spoiled food on the ground and walked straight to Hagrid's side.
"Hagrid, hurry up and pull yourself together!" He said loudly, "How can you be defeated by such a small thing?!"
Hagrid didn't answer. He raised his head and looked at Harry with empty eyes.
The hybrid giant bloodline had always been a sore point in his heart. It had been bothering him for decades, making him not so confident.
Madam Maxim's behavior made him completely give up.
Hagrid clearly knew what a giant represented. He was afraid that after others knew about this, they would gradually drift away from him.
He just wanted to hide here alone. He never thought that Harry, Elwyn, Ron and Hermione would come.
The thing that Hagrid was most worried about was, after knowing that he was a hybrid giant, would they still be willing to be friends with him?!
"Harry is right, Hagrid, don't care about what that woman wrote!" Hermione followed, "You shouldn't be distracted by her words. She is purely spreading rumors. No one cares about what she wrote."
"She didn't spread rumors. I really am a hybrid giant!" Hagrid said chokingly. Two round teardrops flowed out of his black eyes and slowly seeped into his tangled beard. "My mother …"
"We don't care. Even if you are a hybrid giant, in my eyes, there is nothing abnormal about you."
"You don't understand, Harry …" Hagrid said, more tears rolling down his cheeks, seeping into his unkempt beard.
Just as Harry was about to say something else, a voice came from the front of Hagrid's cabin.
"I'm sorry to bother you, but I think that since Harry understands this matter better than you, Hagrid! The fact that the four of them came here means that they are still willing to make friends with you. This is the most important thing! "
Everyone turned around and was surprised to see Dumbledore standing at the door.
"How do you do?" he said pleasantly, beaming at them.
"Professor!"
"I'm glad to see all of you here. I'm here to talk to Hagrid about the resignation report he has just submitted." Dumbledore said as he walked in. "We can't just stand here. Let's sit down and have some tea. We'll talk while we drink!"
He took out his wand and waved it gently. Immediately, a rotating tea tray and a plate of cake appeared in the air.
Dumbledore used magic to make the tea tray land on the table, and everyone sat down.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione all looked very reserved. After a moment of silence, Dumbledore asked everyone to bring a cup of tea.
The conversation continued. Since Dumbledore was already here, there was nothing to worry about, and there was no need for him to do anything. Elwyn sat on the edge of the bed with a cup of tea in his hand. He looked at the steam rising from the cup absentmindedly, and then looked at the white snow outside the window.
"Hagrid, in the past few days after the article was published, I received a lot of letters. They are all related to you. I want to show them to you!" As Dumbledore said this, he waved his wand in the air, and a heavy package fell to the ground. "These are all letters from the students' parents. There are about a thousand of them. They used to study here, and they have a deep impression of you. They told me very firmly that if I expelled you, they would never let it go. You can take a look! "
Rita Skeeter, on behalf of the students' parents, used a forceful tone to call for Hogwarts to expel Hagrid.
After reading this article, many wizards wrote letters to Dumbledore to express their opinions.
It seemed that they did not like being represented by others who made suggestions that went against their original intentions.
Hagrid's popularity was not as bad as he thought. Many people were willing to speak up for him.
Next, Harry, Elwyn, Ron, and Hermione opened the letters and read the contents to Hagrid.
Hearing these touching words, Hagrid cried even harder!
"Not everyone!" After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice, "Not everyone wants me to stay."
"To be honest, Hagrid, if you want to wait for the support of the whole world, I'm afraid you'll have to stay in this small room for a long time," said Dumbledore. At this time, his eyes shot a stern look at him from behind his half-moon glasses. "Ever since I became the headmaster of this school, there has been at least one letter every week from an owl, criticizing the way I manage the school. What do you think I should do? Lock myself in the study and refuse to talk to anyone?! "
"But, but you're not a half-blood giant!" said Hagrid hoarsely.
"Hagrid, look at what kind of relatives I have!" said Harry angrily. "Look at the Dursleys!"
"Excellent point!" Professor Dumbledore said. "My own brother, Aberforth, was sued for using magic on a goat. This matter was all over the newspapers, but did Aberforth hide? No, not at all! He held his head high and continued to do as he pleased! Of course, I can't be sure that he can read, so maybe he's not that brave … "
Elwyn curled his lips. Dumbledore's brother, Aberforth, did not simply use magic on a goat.
A simple investigation of the reports back then would reveal that there was an inexplicably complicated relationship between him and the goat.
"Come back and teach, Hagrid." Hermione said softly. "Please come back, we really miss you."
Hagrid choked back his sobs, but he could not stop the tears from flowing down.
"The arrival of Harry, Elwyn, Ron, and Hermione, as well as these letters, is enough to explain everything!" Dumbledore stood up. "I won't accept your resignation, Hagrid, but you can continue to rest for a week. I hope that you will come back to class next Monday and have breakfast with me at the auditorium at half past eight. No excuses are allowed."
Dumbledore walked towards the door, only stopping to scratch Yaya's ears before he left the room.
When the door closed behind him, Hagrid buried his face in his palms, which were as big as a dustbin lid, and began to cry sadly.
Hermione kept patting his arm. Finally, Hagrid raised his head, his eyes red.
