Chapter 660 Hagrid's Doubts, What Does Dumbledore Have?

Chapter 660 Hagrid's doubts, what will Dumbledore do next?

When Kyle left the tea room and returned to the second floor, he heard an angry roar from the ward where Sirius was.

"If you guys don't shut up, I'll hang you upside down from the ceiling in the corridor!"

Then, the three were driven out of the room by Mr. Weasley.

Ron stood in the corridor, looking at the locked door and muttered softly: "Really, we just said a few words, and didn't disturb him..."

"But we have disturbed him." Hermione said a fair word, "We woke him up twice, and Sirius should kick us out..."

"But it's not our fault." Ron curled his lips, "The room is so small, no matter how much we lower our voices, it's useless."

"Okay, at worst we can come back tomorrow." Harry said, "Anyway, it's vacation now, we can come anytime... Where is Mr. Weasley."

"I don't know, I should go outside to find Bill, he wants to go back with us."

While they were talking, Kyle had already gone downstairs.

Because he was too lazy to explain again how he came from Hogwarts, he did not choose to greet the three people in the corridor, but went directly back to the waiting room on the first floor and left St. Mungo's along the corridor.

Outside, Mr. Weasley was talking to Bill.

"Let me drive when we go back, how about that..." He stared at Sirius's new car, his eyes full of eagerness.

Bill naturally wouldn't refuse, and handed him the car keys directly.

Mr. Weasley took the keys, and when he looked up, he saw Kyle coming out of the window of the department store.

"Have you finished talking to Dean Sassia?" he asked.

"Yes, we've finished talking."

Speaking of this, Kyle felt his chest twitch... Seven thousand Galleons, just a cup of tea, it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel bad.

But Mr. Weasley didn't know what happened, he pointed to the car, "Get in first, I'll go call Harry and the others now, and then go back together."

"No, Mr. Weasley." Kyle shook his head and took out a teapot from his pocket. "I just asked Dean Sassia to help make a portkey that leads directly to Hogsmeade."

"Hogsmeade?"

"Well, I signed the list of students who stayed at school, so strictly speaking, I sneaked out this time..." Kyle glanced at the time and said quickly, "Sorry, Mr. Weasley, there is still one minute before the portkey takes effect. I have to hurry."

"Oh, okay." Mr. Weasley said, and he opened the car door, "Want to come to the car? It's safe enough here."

Kyle originally wanted to go to the phone booth, but after hearing what Mr. Weasley said, he didn't refuse and got into the car directly.

...

When Kyle returned to Hogwarts, it was already seven o'clock, just in time for dinner.

This year, not many people chose to stay at school, only more than 30, so the layout of the auditorium was changed, leaving only a table in the middle, and all the students who stayed at school, as well as professors, sat together for dinner.

Fortunately, Kyle did not see Umbridge at the table, and she should have left school.

This is really good news. If she were there, Kyle might not be able to eat.

Dumbledore was also not there. Professor Flitwick led them in singing Christmas carols and pulled a streamer firecracker as usual.

The streamers were filled with small gadgets, such as hats of various shapes and wizard chess. Professor Flitwick opened a leather cowboy hat and happily put it on.

Kyle also opened a hat full of sequins, but he did not take it himself, but prepared to give it to the Sniff as a Christmas gift.

This kind of shiny thing is simply a priceless treasure in the eyes of the Sniff.

Soon, the table was full of delicious food.

Connor spread a layer of orange jam on the toast and whispered, "How is Professor Black?"

"The runes on his body have been cleaned up." Kyle said, "I think he should be able to leave the hospital in a few days."

"That's good."

"By the way, when did Umbridge leave school?"

"It should be in the morning, or maybe last night." Connor thought for a while and said, "I haven't seen her all day today."

"You probably won't see her in the next two weeks." Kyle smiled.

"Yeah." Connor also smiled, "I have to say, this is simply the best Christmas gift."

Although there were few people staying in school, the dinner was no more deserted than usual. While eating dessert, Professor McGonagall conjured up twenty dancing snowmen, making the hall look like a Christmas ball, which was very novel.

After dinner, these snowmen turned into ice sculptures, frozen in all directions of the hall.

Everyone applauded and returned to their respective common rooms in laughter.

The next day was Christmas.

When Kyle woke up this morning, he found that the gifts almost filled up half of the room.

Because he got up late, Kyle was busy until noon before he finally opened all the gifts.

Most of them were books and candies, which was the same every year. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he went to Honeydukes Candy Store.

Kangna sent chocolate, which looked like it was homemade. Kyle mustered up the courage to taste a piece and found that it tasted pretty good.

And there seemed to be some kind of magic potion in it. After taking it, the sleepiness he felt when he first got up disappeared in an instant, and he became much more energetic.

It's a bit similar to the sobering potion, but the taste is different. It has a nice vanilla smell.

In addition, Mrs. Weasley gave me a Christmas jumper, which was gray and very comfortable.

Hagrid gave him a fur wallet with fangs. The note attached said that it was an anti-theft wallet and that Galleons would be safe inside.

What he said was not wrong. The only problem was that the wallet didn't recognize anyone. Even if Kyle wanted to take out the money, he couldn't. One of his things was in it and he couldn't get it out.

Professor Snape sent a bottle of air.

Dumbledore's gift was a woolen scarf.

In addition, Dean Sasia also sent a Christmas gift...a bottle of elixir.

After seeing the bright golden bottle, Kyle suddenly lost interest in the gifts that followed.

"I should have saved this for last," Kyle muttered.

After opening all the gifts, Kyle walked out of the dormitory and went to the auditorium with Kangna.

The ice sculptures are still there, and they also have gorgeous dress robes on them, which are also transformed by magic. They look like the masterpieces of Professor Flitwick.

After having Christmas lunch, Kangna was ready to go to the library. According to her previous plan, she would read at least three books related to potions during this Christmas holiday.

Kyle left the castle alone and came to Hagrid's hut.

I don't know if it's because of Umbridge or some other reason, but Hagrid has been in a bad mood recently.

When Kyle arrived, he was sitting next to the pumpkin patch, cooking a pot of sticky stuff. There was an empty bucket next to him, presumably preparing food for some kind of magical creature.

"Merry Christmas Hagrid, what is this?" Kyle greeted him and asked with a frown.

Hagrid seemed to be thinking about something and was startled by Kyle's voice.

"Merry Christmas, Kyle." He raised his head and said, "It's just some meat, offal, and a thick soup stewed with semolina cakes." His tone sounded a little guilty, "Well... prepared for Lu Wei, it Like this."

"Oh, that's right." Kyle nodded. No matter how strange the food was, it would instantly become reasonable as long as it was related to the three-headed dog.

That magical animal is really not picky about food and never cares about how it looks.

Kyle changed a chair for himself, sat next to Hagrid and asked, "What's wrong with you recently?"

"What?" Hagrid asked, "I'm fine."

"Then why were you ten minutes late for your last class? You have never been late before, and..." Kyle glanced at Hagrid's face, "How did you get injured?"

Hagrid's eyes were swollen again, and there was a large and obvious circle of black and blue around them, as if they had been hit by a Bludger.

"No, it's nothing." Hagrid quickly lowered his head and tried to cover his eyes with his hands, "I just... accidentally hit a tree."

"Then you hit it really well." Kyle said with a smile, without exposing his flawless lie.

"Well...actually it's because of that annoying Umbridge." Hagrid said hesitantly:

"She told me that she would check my class status again after the holiday. If she was still not satisfied, she would give me a notice of detention."

Hagrid's tone gradually became smoother. He angrily grabbed a handful of wood and added it to the fire. The pot of unknown objects immediately started to bubble.

"But how can she be satisfied...I mean she can always find excuses to give my classes low marks. No matter what I do, it's useless. Even if I speak normally, she will remember that I am intimidating the students." .

"It's really ridiculous. She obviously did it on purpose, just because I said I would always support Dumbledore!"

"Of course, that's what she came to Hogwarts to do," Kyle said.

Hagrid sighed, not wanting to talk about this topic anymore.

"Why didn't you go back during the holidays?" He changed the subject: "I thought you would go to Sirius's house to spend Christmas like Harry did."

"I'm going to do something..." Kyle said, "but it must be in school and without Umbridge. I need your help."

"No problem." Hagrid blurted out without thinking, "Just tell me what you need me to do."

"Don't worry yet." Kyle waved his hand, "Before that, I want to ask you something."

"What's up?"

"It's the owl in the school. Has there been anything unusual recently?" Kyle said, "For example, he was injured or lost a letter."

"How do you know?" Hagrid said angrily: "Although no letters were lost, there were injured owls, and there were more than one.

"I don't know which bastard did it. If I catch the guy who attacked the messenger, I will teach him a lesson."

"Great." Kyle said subconsciously.

"What, you said it wrong." Hagrid frowned and said seriously: "These owls were attacked, and it is likely that someone wanted to steal the letters they sent. This is not a good thing."

"Then let him see it. You don't need to catch it. You can just throw it to him." Kyle smiled and said, "I have a plan that may allow Umbridge to leave Hogwarts."

Hagrid didn't bother to cover his eyes and looked over immediately.

"Tell me what I can do."

"It's easy, go to the Owl Post Office and send a letter to Hogwarts from there."

"What did you say?" Hagrid thought he heard wrongly and couldn't help asking: "You want me to go to the Owl Post Office to send a letter to Hogwarts?"

"That's right." Kyle said, "Not only that, but you also have to instruct the owl to make a large circle when sending the letter, creating the illusion that it is coming from different directions."

Hagrid was even more confused. He had no idea what Kyle's purpose was.

But Kyle didn't explain. He just took out a stack of thick parchment and handed it over, saying, "This is the letter you want to send. Just write your name as the recipient."

Hagrid took the parchment and couldn't help but glance down.

It was strange that although these were all given to him by Kyle, the handwriting of each letter was different.

Hagrid looked at the first letter. The handwriting on it was very sloppy.

"I am very willing to accept your invitation, Albus, how about we meet at the same place, and then we can talk in detail about the matter you mentioned before."

"Is this a letter to Dumbledore?" Hagrid thought.

But isn’t Kyle at school? He wanted to discuss something with Dumbledore. Wouldn't it be better to go directly to the principal's office? Why bother writing a letter.

Hagrid looked at the second letter.

The writing on this one is much neater, completely different from the first one, as if it was written by another person.

"Professor Dumbledore, I have forwarded your message to my uncle, and he expressed his full support for you.

"Besides, my friends and I feel the same way and are really looking forward to this Christmas holiday passing quickly."

Has Dumbledore made any new decisions? How come he doesn't know. Also, when did Kyle get an uncle... I never heard that Chris had a brother.

Hagrid continued to scroll down, and the handwriting changed again.

"You should have done this a long time ago, Albus. I'll see you on the twentieth."

Any action on the 20th?

Hagrid became more and more confused as he looked, feeling all sorts of doubts pouring into his head.

He now felt as if he was under a forgetting spell and couldn't remember anything.

"Don't look at Hagrid, I made these up." Kyle patted Haier's arm and said, "And it's not for you to see."

Hagrid raised his head and felt inexplicably relieved.

"Are you writing this letter to Professor Dumbledore?"

"No." Kyle shook his head, "It's for people who want to peek at the letter.

"Hagrid, when you send a letter, remember not to choose an owl that is too conscientious. It is best to choose an owl that will throw away the letter and run away when it encounters danger."

"This is not easy." Hagrid said, "Owls are not bad at their duties. At least I have never seen the situation you mentioned."

After realizing that he couldn't guess what Kyle was thinking, Hagrid didn't bother to think about it... Whatever Kyle said, he just did it.

"It doesn't matter, just ask, in case there is one." Kyle said.

The two discussed some more details, mainly Kyle instructing Hagrid on what to do. It wasn't until a faint smell of paste came out of the large pot next to him that Hagrid hurriedly extinguished the fire with earth.

"Kyle, I have to go deliver lunch to Grawp now. How about we talk about it in the afternoon." Hagrid glanced at the direction of the Forbidden Forest, "I promise to come back as soon as possible."

"Group?" Kyle raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you just say that this was for Lu Wei?"

Hagrid shut his mouth abruptly and looked at Kyle in panic.

"Yes, it's Lu Wei," he said hesitantly. "Gropp... is the new name I gave to the head in the middle."

"Oh, that's right." Kyle said casually, "I thought Grawp was the name of a giant."

"Of course not..." Hagrid felt even more guilty, his hands unconsciously clutching his coat, "How can there be giants in the Forbidden Forest, right?"

"You're right." Kyle smiled and said, "Then go ahead, that's all my business.

"Oh, by the way, and the most important thing is, when you send a letter, remember to choose encrypted mail and ask the post office to add a little Muggle-proof magic on the letter, which requires a spell to open.

Kyle took out a handful of Galleons from his pocket and handed it to Hagrid, "Here's the postage cost."

Hagrid suddenly became unhappy.

"What are you doing?" He said dissatisfiedly, "Take it back quickly. You are just helping to send letters. Will I still take your money?"

Kyle wanted to say something else, but Hagrid's expression became increasingly ugly.

"Okay." Kyle, who saw that he was getting angry, could only shrug and put the Galleons back in his pocket.

"That's right." Hagrid then smiled and said, "I'll go to the Owl Post Office in the afternoon, don't worry."

"Don't worry." Kyle said, "It's best to send two or three letters a day, not too many."

"No problem." Hagrid agreed readily.
