Chapter 456: I want to show (1/2)
Ever since he saw the report about the dragon egg in the Daily Prophet, Albert began to secretly observe the changes in Quirrell, and he was probably sure that the other party should have successfully obtained a dragon egg.
After drawing this conclusion, a very bold idea suddenly popped into Albert's mind. If he quietly broke into Quirrell's room and stole the dragon egg directly, in which direction would this matter go?
Maybe Quirrell would be so angry that he vomited blood?
After all, he hadn't succeeded in stealing the Philosopher's Stone, but his own things were stolen first.
Quill, who has no dragon egg, can ask Hagrid how to subdue Lu Wei?
Will he engage in another dragon egg, or will he directly use violence to crack Lu Wei's level?
Will Hagrid harvest another dragon egg because of this? Will Harry be caught by Professor McGonagall in the middle of the night for sending away the dragon, and finally enter the Forbidden Forest with Malfoy?
To be honest, if the rewards given by the panel tasks are rich enough, Albert doesn't mind taking the risk at all to make the future more interesting.
However, the benefits of preventing Voldemort from stealing the Philosopher’s Stone are indeed a lot, but they are not enough to make Albert frantically change the future.
Although the known future is indeed a bit boring, it is safe to win!
Albert is already considering how to take advantage of the Dragon Egg Incident to do tasks for himself and seek benefits.
Compared with the unicorn incident, the dragon egg incident is obviously easier and safer.
Albert thought about it for a few days, and decided to engage in a show operation.
The identity of the prophet can be used to make good use of it, and it is also conducive to using it to lead (sudden) guide (you) Potter in the future, and seek more benefits for itself.
”Sure enough, I am also a very realistic person!” Albert thought of this and couldn't help but laugh at himself.
He was ready to go to Hagrid to tell the other party that his wish to raise a dragon was about to come true, and by the way let Hagrid believe he would predict.
Before dinner, Albert separated from his roommates and hurriedly walked across the hall to Hagrid's cabin, and was stopped by someone on the way.
”What's the matter, Miss Granger?” Albert stopped and looked at Hermione who stopped him in doubt.
”Nothing, I just think it's weird that you left the castle at the time of dinner.” Hermione's face showed a touch of embarrassment, but she didn't hide her curiosity. ”Can I go to Hagrid with you? Of course. If you find it inconvenient, forget it.”
”It's not inconvenient. If you don't mind missing dinner and get hungry, I don't mind.” Albert said with a shrug.
In fact, he just told Fred, George, and Lee Jordan that he had something to go to Hagrid, which meant it was for Hermione.
Albert does not deny that Hermione is smart, but even a smart person, under the guidance of others consciously or unconsciously, will still be recruited without realizing it.
It was true that curiosity killed the cat. Hermione had already become curious about Albert last time, and some abnormal behavior could undoubtedly attract her curiosity.
Of course, even if it fails, it doesn't matter.
”Do you have anything to do with Hagrid?”
Halfway, Hermione asked tentatively.
Albert didn't answer Hermione's question immediately, and the two followed the gravel path to Hagrid's cabin. Albert immediately reached out and knocked on the wooden door of Hagrid's cottage.
”Why are you here?” Hagrid was eating dinner, opened the door and looked at Albert and Hermione outside the door in surprise, wondering how they both came here at this time.
”There is something I want to tell you.” Albert walked quickly into the cabin, looked around immediately, and walked to the fire to observe carefully, as if looking for something.
His abnormality made Hagrid and Hermione a little baffling.
