When Harry came out of the library, it was almost noon. Hermione and Jean were chatting happily and did not seem to want to go back for lunch. When he went downstairs, Neville had come to the laboratory on the third floor and was laughing with a group of people in front of a "smirking mushroom".
On the first floor, the Martian maiden and Beast Boy were calling for everyone to go back to the castle for lunch. When they saw Harry coming downstairs, they complained helplessly, "Games are always more important than food."
However, Harry did not want to go back to the castle for lunch. He suddenly remembered something. "I'm going to Haig's hut."
Well, he had not visited Haig for a week. Last time, he said he would come and chat with him often.
Beast Boy clapped his hands and said, "I'll go with you!"
Harry was surprised. "You know Haig too?"
As they walked, Beast Boy told Harry, "I like to chat with Haig. I mean, he knows a lot about beasts, doesn't he? If you ask me, he's good enough for your Magical Creature Protection class. "
Haig's hut was still messy and warm. Harry noticed that there were a few more pheasants hanging under Haig's roof. When they arrived, Haig was moving a large pile of hay into the hut. Fangya was running behind him.
"Fangya!" Beast Boy Garfield seemed to be very familiar with Fangya. He ran a few steps forward and turned into a big green dog that looked like Fangya. Two people, no, two dogs... no, no! Anyway, they were playing and running away. Harry helped Haig move a large pile of hay into the hut and found that Haig was repairing his roof. Harry stood on Haig's bed and handed him hay.
"No, no need for your help, Harry. Just sit down." Haig waved his hand. "How have you been?"
Other than the damn potion class, everything else was good. Harry helped Haig pass the hay while talking about his recent life. "I just went to visit the Union Building."
Haig seemed to have a good impression of the international students. He commented, "They are all good kids! I thought they were a bunch of annoying Americans, but these kids are not bad. Garfield is not bad, and that, that kid who always wants to break into the Forbidden Forest … "
At this time, Garfield had already come in with Ya Ya. Seeing that Haig couldn't tell the names of the international students, he asked a few questions. Then he smiled and said, "That is Kronos from the school next door. However, to be honest, if he really wants to break in, Haig shouldn't be able to stop him."
"Why?" Harry knew that Kronos' nickname was "Time Line," but he didn't know much about his ability.
Beast Boy was about the same age as Harry, but perhaps because of his experience, although he was usually joking around, when he was serious, he seemed to be a few years older than Harry. He sat on Haig's small bench and played with Ya Ya while saying, "I don't know much, but sister, ah, I mean Megan, talked a lot with the people over there, so I heard some things. There is a saying in our circle: The rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation. Aliens like Superman and Megan are special. But Kronos is different. "
Hagrid did not pay much attention to Garfield's words. He placed a large pot in the middle of the room and boiled a large pot of water. Harry, on the other hand, was warming his hands and listening attentively. "How is it different?"
Garfield puffed up his cheeks and thought for a while before continuing, "No one knows where his ability came from."
"Isn't he a mutant?" Harry remembered hearing such a term.
"Mutant?" Garfield corrected Harry and said, "He doesn't seem to be a mutant. His situation seems to be similar to our Professor Shazam. His ability comes from some kind of god. But I only heard a little about it … Haig, what are you doing?"
Haig happily carried a big pot over. The two children were shocked when they saw such a big pot of ingredients. Haig's messy hair revealed a big smile. "The weather is cold. It's warmer to eat like this."
So they put radishes, onions, lettuce, and sliced chicken, beef, and bones into the big pot. Everyone had a small bowl and sauces in front of them. They casually took out the food they wanted to eat from the big pot. Sure enough, it was in full swing.
Garfield added potatoes into the big pot and said, "… So, Kronos' ability is a little mysterious. We only know that he can control time. But to what extent, perhaps even Kronos himself doesn't know."
Garfield's use of the word "mysterious" to describe Colo's ability made Harry feel weird. To him, it was a very cool ability. Wasn't it a humanoid Tardis? (Note: The police station in Doctor Who that could travel through time and space)!
Garfield didn't seem to agree. Even Haig said, "It's not that simple. Even Merlin can't time travel at will. There's a price to pay for offending time."
It sounded like a lot of restrictions. No wonder Cole looked listless every day.
The lunch lasted for about one and a half hours. The three of them ate until their stomachs were round. No one wanted to clean up the mess after the meal. In the end, Haig looked around for a while and pulled out his little red umbrella. "Clean it up!"
Harry sat on Haig's big bed in the afternoon and slowly finished reading the adventure story about Tom Sawyer. Haig patted his woolen socks and commented on what was wrong with the unicorn that Garfield had turned into according to the atlas.
"Haig, Haig, have you seen a unicorn before?" After being corrected a few times, Garfield stopped and stared at the atlas of magical creatures in front of him.
Haig happily said, "Of course I have. The Forbidden Forest is …" Seeing Garfield's excited expression, Haig immediately covered his mouth. "No, I shouldn't have told you. Garfield, you must never go to the Forbidden Forest. It's too dangerous. Even if you are an international student, Dumbledore will be angry! "
Garfield hurriedly promised that he would never go alone. Only then did Haig stop nagging, but he still didn't quite believe him.
When the sky outside was about to turn purple, the two boys got up and said goodbye to Haig and slowly walked back.
"Phew, the nights in England are a little cold …" Garfield felt a sense of novelty toward the fields and the endless deciduous forest.
"Aren't winters cold in America? Speaking of which, I see that many of Connor and the others are still wearing short sleeves. "
"Haha, they are different." Garfield laughed. "Look at those big heroes. They only wear tight uniforms in the middle of winter to show off their figures!" Seeing the disbelief on Harry's face, Garfield revealed another little tidbit. "I heard that Red Robin used to only wear green shorts when he went out on missions in the middle of winter. Later, he couldn't stand the cold and sent a text message to Dick — our senior, the first Robin — complaining. Only then did Batman change his uniform …"
Harry was confused. "Who is Robin? How many generations? "
Garfield didn't respond to Harry's words. Perhaps he didn't hear it clearly, but more likely, he saw something interesting. Harry followed Garfield's gaze and saw that it was in the direction of the Black Lake.
Naturally, the Black Lake wasn't very interesting. What was interesting was that there were people running around the Black Lake. Garfield's eyesight was much better than Harry's. After standing there for a while, he turned to Harry and said, "It's Gryffindor."
Why is Gryffindor running around the Black Lake? A new punishment? It wasn't until he saw the Slytherin running around the Black Lake that Harry suddenly realized — this should be what Jason meant by "exercise more."
Indeed, the two groups bumped into each other under a willow tree. Gryffindor's team was led by Quidditch's team captain, Oliver Wood, while Slytherin's team was led by their captain, Marcus. The two groups divided the area between the willow tree and Chu Han, and they were all panting from exhaustion.
"I thought Slytherin were all tall and strong …" Harry had seen Slytherin's training at Quidditch. He only remembered that their team members were tall and fierce. But looking at them now, their overall quality was uneven. There were quite a few students who looked pale and anemic! In contrast, Gryffindor's team looked healthier.
Wood quickly adjusted his state of mind. He raised his chin and said to Marcus, "We're half a minute early."
Marcus glared at Wood fiercely. He turned around and shouted to his men, "We'll continue training tomorrow afternoon. We'll run around the Black Lake!" Slytherin wailed.
Wood kindly reminded them, "Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff have booked the Black Lake for tomorrow."
Marcus did not turn his head, "Then we'll run around the castle!"
In the evening, Harry saw a group of senior Gryffindor rubbing their legs in the common room of Gryffindor. Ron was sitting beside Percy and laughing at his third brother, "I think you'd better not join in the fun tomorrow. Otherwise, you'll wear out your legs in a week."
The tall and thin Percy did not seem to be a sports talent, but he still said with a straight face, "I'm the head of the class, I have to take the lead..." He could not help but puff out his chest. His head badge was pinned on his chest.
"Tch!" Ron also puffed out his chest. His pet mouse was stuffed in his chest pocket.
Harry smiled and walked over to ask about the incident in the afternoon. It turned out that it was caused by Jason's combat class.
Jason's requirements for the third grade and above were much stricter than Harry's. Moreover, his class focused more on "combat" training, so some physical training could only be done by the students after class. Therefore, the students of several grades gathered together to discuss. They might not be able to do anything else, but running was the easiest. So they decided to do it.
In fact, the original proposer (Percy) thought of running 800 meters every day as a walk after dinner. But in some people's (Wood) understanding, Mr. Todd was talking about intensifying the training, so it must be more than the usual training. Eight hundred or a thousand meters was too small a deal. Well, let's do a half horse (Pull Loose)! The last two ideas were compromised under the protests of the students. They decided to run two laps around Black Lake every day. When the other departments heard about this plan, they felt that they could not be the laggards, so they also booked Black Lake.
"Everyone, rest well, study hard, exercise hard, don't fall behind, don't ask for leave. If the girls have any special circumstances, let Angelina know," Wood kept encouraging them. "We have to be role models for the younger children!"
The younger children did not want to be implicated, so they quietly went upstairs. Harry also missed Huckleberry, so he did not play wizard chess with Ron and the others. Instead, he returned to his' single dormitory ', ready to change into his pajamas and read another adventure story in bed.
