Chapter 192： Three dogs (1/2)
A few days ago, it had been raining and the road in the Forbidden Forest was muddy, and Albert, who was behind Hagrid, almost fell several times.
”Hagrid, wait a moment.” After almost falling down again, Albert finally called Hagrid to stop, and under the confused gaze of the other party, he walked to the side and trimmed a branch for himself.
”What are you doing with this thing?” Hagrid asked. Afterwards, he understood what Albert wanted to do. Under the influence of Transfiguration, the branch was turned into a walking stick for pathfinder.
”Now, I kind of understand the adventurer, why would everyone have a cane.” Albert said to Hagrid with a smile.
”You look like a little old man like this.” Hagrid couldn't help joking.
”No, no, that's how it tastes of adventure.” Albert didn't care about Hagrid's jokes at all, and continued to follow behind him, fangs running around them.
The two walked forward again. They were far away from the school, but Albert felt that he did not go deep into the forbidden forest, but walked around the outside of the forbidden forest.
Finally, the two stopped in front of a big oak tree. Albert saw that there was a kennel for shelter from the rain on a higher ground, if it was really a kennel.
”Lu Wei.” Hagrid put down the iron bucket, folded his hands on his mouth, and shouted forward.
When Hagrid called out Lu Wei, Albert felt that he was being stared at by something, and a low and tender bark suddenly came from the right.
”Let's make it, Lu Wei is a little bit scared.” Hagrid motioned to Albert to step back first, and he reached out his hand to catch the black shadow that was coming.
It was a dog, to be precise, a dog with three heads, the three-headed dog Lu Wei. Isn't this the three-headed dog that Dumbledore used to protect the first level of the Philosopher's Stone?
However, Lu Wei is still very small now, probably the size of a bulldog, he was held in his arms by Hagrid like a baby, struggling desperately to escape Hagrid's embrace.
Lu Wei seemed to be wary of the stranger Albert. Three heads and six eyes stared at him. If it weren't for its small size, Albert felt that he might not be able to stand here so calmly.
”Don't worry, he is Albert, my friend,” Hagrid said in a coaxing tone.
Albert stared at Lu Wei in Hagrid's hand, and asked with a twitching corner of his mouth: ”Hagrid, this is your...dog?”
”Lu Wei is more wary of unfamiliar smells.” Hagrid hugged the three-headed dog tightly in his arms with a fan-like hand, holding it tightly to prevent it from breaking free from his arms.
”I know.” Albert pushed back a few steps, reached out and touched Yaya's head, and muttered, ”Yaya is still cute.”
”No, no, this little baby is also very cute.” Hagrid hugged Lu Wei closer to Albert so that it could smell Albert.
”Little baby?” Albert felt his face twitching. ”How old is it?”
”Probably... five months or so.” Hagrid said uncertainly. ”I bought it from a Greek in Hogshead Bar in Hogsmeade a month and a half ago.”
”I remember the three-headed dog is a very rare magical animal.” Albert raised his eyebrows and asked.
”That's a smuggler.” Hagrid was a little angry when he talked about it. ”At that time, Lu Wei looked bad and might die at any time, so the Greek didn't want to hit his hands, so he sold it at a cheaper price. Up me.”
The Ministry of Magic is still unreliable as always.
”The Ministry of Magic is nothing but rice buckets,” Hagrid said dissatisfiedly. ”Even if they catch the smugglers, they will only get rid of them.”
Albert asked suddenly, ”Does Dumbledore know?”
At this moment, Albert noticed that Hagrid suddenly became panicked.
Oh, forget it, let's talk about this later!
Albert sighed, he could already see the answer from Hagrid's expression.
”Can I feed Lu Wei?” He changed the subject.
”Oh, of course.” Hagrid put down Lu Wei and quietly calmed down: ”Don't be nervous, Lu Wei is just sniffing your body.”
