In the new school year, Harry was still in the state of choosing courses on his own. He arranged the courses quite evenly like last year,
He fully ensured that he had time for leisure, entertainment, and sleeping in. So..,
On the first day of school, Harry slept comfortably until nine o'clock in the morning. Then, he took his time,
Uh..,
He was not going to class. He was going to find a junior.
Ever since the little raptor was hugged by Ginny that day..,
The little guy found that a girl's arms were much more comfortable than a boy's arms,
Therefore, during the days in the shack, it was basically sticking to Ginny's side. Harry was naturally happy to get rid of it. But now that it was in Hogwarts,
Harry pondered for a moment,
He felt that Snape should not have the intention of giving this magical animal to him, so he planned to return the little raptor to Snape.
In order to choose courses..,
Harry had the course schedule of the four academies of the school, so he easily met Ginny in front of the Gryffindor Tower,
The Weisles girl was talking and laughing with a few first-year Gryffindor students,
They were probably her roommates.
She saw Harry waving at her,
Ginny smiled and said a few words to the girls who were with her. Then she ran up and asked, "What's wrong, Harry?"
Harry smiled and asked, "New friends?"
"Yeah!" Ginny nodded and then added, "But Luna is the only Luna."
"Haha..." After Harry explained the purpose of his visit, Ginny was a little reluctant. She did not buy a pet. She had planned to treat the little raptor as her own pet. "If — if Professor Snape doesn't want it anymore, can I still adopt it?"
Harry did not dare to guarantee this. He only said, "Uh, maybe."
In any case, Ginny quickly carried the little raptor out. This guy ate and slept well every day. Its soft body gradually became round. When Ginny carried it out, many passersby thought she was carrying a fat cat.
"Eh … this is really heavy …" Harry couldn't help but grimace as he measured the weight of the little Raptor.
Ginny said worriedly, "It's so fat... what is Professor Snape going to do with it?"
"Don't worry, the professor won't throw it into the crucible." He was not afraid of crushing the crucible.
After saying goodbye to Ginny, Harry went straight to the cellar. The first class he chose on Monday was Potions. Looking at the time, Snape should still be preparing materials. Harry could just return the little raptor before class started.
Snape was indeed still in the cellar, but he was not preparing materials for class. For some reason, he had overslept and was still eating breakfast. So when Harry knocked on the door, he happened to bump into Snape's morning grumpiness.
"Professor? Professor? "He knocked on the door." Professor, are you there? "
Snape opened the door with a gloomy face. He looked down and stared at Harry without saying a word.
Harry, who was quite familiar with this kind of atmosphere, quickly handed over the little raptor, which was still yawning, and went straight to the point. "Professor, your little raptor... Uh, you're still eating?" Through Snape's body, Harry saw the dining table behind him.
After receiving Snape's death ray, Harry immediately raised the little raptor as a shield. "Here you are!"
Snape did not take the little raptor. Harry expected this, but to his surprise, after a moment of silence, Snape's expression seemed to soften a little. Harry blinked, and then heard Snape speak.
"Have you eaten?"
What an amiable opening line! Harry was so scared that he almost threw the little raptor to the ground. "... Professor?" After a pause, Harry asked tentatively, "Professor Snape?"
Snape, who was doubted whether he was telling the truth, pulled a long face. Harry, on the other hand, felt a sense of familiarity. He hurriedly answered, "Not yet!" He had not prepared any rations and had slept in. Harry had only eaten two candies since he woke up.
Seeing that Snape stepped aside without saying a word, Harry walked into the cellar and sat at the Potions Professor's table with the little raptor. Snape called the house elf, and soon there was a simple breakfast in front of Harry. The two ate without saying a word, just like in Spidertail Alley.
Looking at the boy sitting opposite him drinking milk and eating a sandwich, Snape's anger slowly subsided. At the same time, he remembered the brief meeting with Dumbledore last night. As usual, the old principal kindly asked about the health and personal life of the staff, and then pretended to inadvertently mention the Azkaban incident.
"Dead?" Although he had viciously imagined the death of that person many times, but — "Killed by a wall?" That was a bit too much, wasn't it?
Snape was so angry that he almost laughed. "I thought the Ministry of Magic allocated so many Garons to ensure that Azkaban is not a shoddy project?"
Dumbledore innocently pulled the plate of cake in front of him to avoid being tortured by the Professor of Magic. "Erm... Actually, we can still believe in the safety of Azkaban, but that day, there seemed to be an abnormal magic storm near Azkaban..."
"Storm?" Snape had the confidence to apply for the Defense Against Black Magic class every year, and he himself had done quite a bit of research on magical theories. He knew that a magic storm was an extremely rare natural phenomenon, but, "Is it man-made?" It could also be created by a magus with powerful magical powers.
Dumbledore only shook his head slowly. "The Ministry of Magic did not find any signs of man-made."
"The Ministry of Magic?" Snape could only sneer. He did not believe that the Ministry of Magic was fair and impartial, nor did he believe that Dumbledore was so calm about Black's death. He also did not believe that the magic storm incident could not be more coincidental. Obviously, Dumbledore knew that he would not believe it, but... Snape still did not understand the meaning of Black's death. In fact, ever since the savior entered the Hogwarts, the Potions Professor became more and more confused about what was happening.
Seeing that Snape was still staring at the empty plate after eating, Harry did not dare to say anything. He only broke the bread crumbs and fed it to the expectant little Ribbit — it was getting less and less picky. However, when he looked at his watch and saw that it was almost time for class, Harry could not help but waved his hand in front of Snape. "Professor? It's almost time for class... "
Snape expressionlessly asked the house-elf to put away the tableware, then took the lesson plan and went out. The classroom was on the left. Harry hurried to catch up with him. At the same time, he had to worry about the little Ribbit. "Professor, where should I put Pikachu?" He did not dare to put the little Ribbit directly in Snape's territory. There were bottles and cans everywhere, and it was simply a dangerous place.
"Take it with you." Snape had no intention of taking the little Ribbit back. He had successfully improved the wolfsbane soup, and he did not have to clean up the little Ribbit every day.
Harry certainly had no objection to the Potions Professor burning the bridge after crossing the river. He only asked, "Can I give it to Ginny?"
Snape vaguely remembered that the new girl in Weisles' family was called Ginny. He could not help but glance at Harry. Last year, he saw him cuddling with Granger, and this year, he was trying to please Weisles. He really had the demeanor of his father. Snape sneered, "I thought that Potter's specialty was brainless monsters. I didn't expect him to be a Casanova."
Snape's tone was quite harsh, but Harry took the initiative to extract the information — he did not object to him giving the little Ribbit away! But obviously, it was unrealistic to bring the little Ribbit into the Potions Professor's class. Harry had to skip the potions class and take the little Ribbit with him.
Ginny was still in class at the moment, so Harry planned to take the little Ribbit back to the Union Building first. But after taking a few steps out of the castle, he thought of a better place to go.
"Haig!" Harry saw the big ranger washing boots at the door of the wooden house from afar. He trotted all the way down the slope.
Haig had also seen Harry. He happily stood up and caught Harry, who rushed over. He also lifted the child up and weighed him. "You have grown strong." But after putting him down, Haig frowned again. "Not much taller!"
"Haig!" Harry pretended to be angry, which made Haig laugh.
After asking Harry a lot of questions, Haig saw the little Ribbit rolling around beside Harry. He was surprised at first, and then he picked up the little guy. "This is... Well, this is not common."
"Do you know it?" Harry also thought that it was quite rare, so he brought it over to Haig.
"I've heard of it but not seen it. Is this a little Ribbit?" Seeing that Harry nodded, Hagrid clicked his tongue and praised the little Rubby Beast. "This little guy is not easy to catch. It's noisy, and it bites … Hey, why did you pull out this one's fangs?"
Harry explained, "It was Professor Snape who pulled them out. This Pikachu is also his pet."
"Raising a little Ribbit?" Haig seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world. "It takes a lot of effort. I didn't know that Professor Snape had this kind of effort!"
He didn't... Harry silently complained in his heart, and then he told Haig, "Now it's mine, but I plan to give it to Ginny." Speaking of Ginny, Harry told Haig the interesting things that happened in the Shack during the summer vacation. How he caught the gnomes with Ron, how he went to the town with Ginny, how he witnessed the birth of little Tommy, and so on.
Harry talked about trivial things, but Haig listened carefully. From time to time, he would interrupt and ask, "Are you hurt?" and "Who is so-and-so?" When Harry finally finished talking about the reconstruction project of Lovegood's house, Haig stood up happily. Harry saw him touch the bow hanging on the wall and asked, "Haig, what are you doing?"
The big guy patted Harry's head and laughed. "I'm going to catch two rabbits. Harry, do you want to invite your friends here for tea in the afternoon?"
