Speaking of which, Harry suddenly realized something.

These Hogwarts professors are not young, but they seem to have little experience in getting married.

Dumbledore's old bee needless to say.

Professor Flitwick is a half-goblin. When he was young, not many people looked up to him. When he was old, there were some people who were willing to marry him because of his status, but Professor Flitwick looked down on him.

Professor Sprout should have wedding experience.

But. As a real Hufflepuff, she has always lived a simple life, and now she still wears a patched hat that looks older than the Sorting Hat-this is why the Sorting Hat has always dared to say that it looks good. one of the sources.

Her wedding will probably be simple.

It is difficult for ordinary people to possess such a profound spiritual realm as hers.

Professor Snape needless to say, as for Professor McGonagall, Harry felt that it was not polite to mention "marriage" in front of her.

As for the professors of other courses.

Professor Binns is a ghost, Trelawney is a drunkard, Professor Babling in ancient runes is a celibate, after all, there are only Mrs. Pince, the librarian, and Mrs. Hooch, the flying professor. It is certain to be married.

More than a dozen professors and more than 20 faculty members can only pick out two married ones.

Harry sighed: "You can go to Mrs. Pince and Mrs. Hooch for more advice. They should have good marriage experience."

Hagrid blushed: "No, it's not a wedding!"

"Not yet, not so soon, at least until the matter of the mysterious man is dealt with."

He paused for a while, and asked in a low voice: "Mrs. Pince, Mrs. Hooch, are they very experienced?"

"There is a normal marriage in Hogwarts, it should be the two of them." Harry replied.

Hagrid nodded silently in his heart: "I will ask in the future, but Harry, I invited you here today is not one thing, but another thing."

"In August, I didn't set off to find the giant with Olim."

Ron was a little surprised.

It turned out that they were not traveling, but doing things for the Order of the Phoenix? That's not what my mother told me.

"It's been a very pleasant journey, Harry, you know it." Hagrid waved his wand and poured tea for the three of them, "We went to the Alps together, climbed Weiss Peak, and spent a few wonderful days there. night."

good.

Hearing this word, Ron's face changed slightly. The matter of turning out the skirt just now has not faded from his mind, and now he can't help but think about it.

Hagrid went on: "The giants are driven away by wizards, and they live in desolate places where Muggles hardly pass by."

"It's safe for wizards, giants, and Muggles, of course. The living environment is not very good."

"Olim and I found the giant, and it's almost mid-August."

"To be honest, things have gotten worse since then. My mother, she, she has passed away. The current patriarch of the giant tribe is another giant who is more violent and fierce. We tried to convince him, But he said wizards wouldn't listen to Dumbledore unless they were willing to give them a country, fertile lands and resources."

Harry interrupted: "Negotiations failed?"

"I could have tried again." Hagrid sighed, his face turned aggrieved, "but I found an unexpected existence."

He hesitated.

Harry narrowed his eyes: "Your mother remarried and gave birth to younger brothers and sisters for you?"

Hagrid nodded dejectedly: "Yes, of course for giants, they have no concept of marriage, she just chooses a stronger man."

"I have a half brother."

Speaking of this, Hagrid's expression became strange.

"A family."

"His name is Glop, and he doesn't feel comfortable in the tribe of giants. He's... like me, very small."

Ron looked up at Hagrid.

short?

He may have misunderstood something about the term.

"I mean compared to giants," Hagrid emphasized. "I'm a half-giant, and I'm much smaller than them, and so is Glop, who's only sixteen feet."

Ron tilted his head back up again.

Hagrid was just over eleven feet tall, sixteen feet, which was almost a third more.

"I should have said in class." Hagrid glanced at Ron, "Normal giants can reach twenty feet in height after childhood, and some strong giants can even grow to twenty-five feet. "

"Glop was short, thin, and his mother died, and he was bullied all the time."

"I couldn't see it, and the failure of the negotiation brought Glop back."

Hermione exclaimed, "You brought back a giant and put it in the Forbidden Forest?"

Hagrid nodded.

Hermione frowned: "Hagrid, Professor Hagrid, you should know better than us what kind of creature a giant is."

In the magical world, there are many sub-human races, such as goblins and veela, who live together with humans, and even intermarry - veela has eliminated most wizards' suspicion of themselves through their beauty and large-scale intermarriage with humans. discriminate.

Tamarians, mermaids, and giants are among the subhuman races, one of the few who are not very close to humans.

The horse people are out of character, they think they are proud, and they are the children of nature, but the human wizards look at them with tinted glasses. Independent, among all demihuman races, their status is the highest.

Even in the Ministry of Magic, there are separate jobs, running a department alone.

Even goblins, the demihuman race in charge of Gringotts, can serve in the Ministry of Magic, but the officials in charge of the "Fairy Liaison Office", a department related to goblins, are still human wizards.

The reason for mermaids is due to the factors of their living environment. They live underwater, and their voices do not form language in the air. Only in water can their calls become words that can be read by people.

And giant.

It is because of the brain.

They are intelligent, but not smart enough, and they are violent in nature, cruel and vicious, and like blood and killing. They can understand the rules set by human wizards and can communicate with humans, but they are unwilling to abide by them, or in other words, it is difficult for them to be driven by their nature. Next, insist on compliance for too long.

One or two days may be fine, but after a long time, they can't control themselves.

The giants had to be driven away by human wizards, kept under surveillance, and lived in inaccessible areas.

These creatures are dangerous and they have a strong desire to attack.

"I know, of course I know." Hagrid sighed, shrinking his head aggrievedly.

Hermione's tone became severe: "Although Professor Dumbledore emphasized that little wizards are not allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest, you know that not many students will take this order seriously."

"Also, the Protection of Fantastic Beasts class is right next to the Forbidden Forest, just in case"

Hagrid shook his head quickly: "It's nothing in case."

"I put Glop in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and ask the horsemen and unicorns to keep him in check."

"And I patrol every night. I also consulted with Professor Flitwick to learn some tracking magic, although I haven't learned it yet."

Harry nodded: "So you want me to make you a tracking map of the Forbidden Forest, like the one in Dumbledore's office?"

Hagrid Chick pecked at the rice and nodded.

"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult." Harry reached out his hand and tapped the Sorting Hat lightly, "Hogwarts itself contains magic. When students enter school, they sign a contract with the castle. The reason for the Marauder's Map is to pry the contract. power, so that everyone who has contracted is recorded on the map."

A piece of yellowed parchment appeared in Harry's hands. It was the map of the Forbidden Forest that he had drawn a few years ago.

"But the Forbidden Forest is different. It doesn't have magic, and it doesn't sign contracts with people who enter the Forbidden Forest."

"It is difficult to achieve the effect of the Marauder's map."

"I can give you this map."

Hagrid frowned: "Harry, can you cast a spell to seal off the Forbidden Forest and prevent little wizards from breaking in at night?"

"Let's talk about the Marauder's Map." Harry changed the subject. "Although it is difficult, it is not impossible."

"Ravenclaw once signed an oath with the Forbidden Forest."

Hermione and Ron immediately pricked up their ears and listened seriously. This was something that had never been written in "Hogwarts, A School History".

"The creatures in the Forbidden Forest cannot harm the lives of Hogwarts students." Harry said softly.

Hermione nodded.

No wonder Dumbledore didn't pay much attention to this matter even though he repeatedly emphasized that students are not allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest.

In the history of the school, there has never been a case where a student died in the Forbidden Forest.

It turned out that there was such an oath.

Harry took a deep breath: "But, there are two exceptions."

"A giant octopus, they are not considered creatures of the Forbidden Forest. After your little pet dies, and then a giant crocodile born in the Forbidden Forest may be considered a creature of the Forbidden Forest."

"Another accident, that is your brother, Glop."

Hagrid froze, more ashamed, and lowered his head even lower.

The only two dangerous factors in the Forbidden Forest all come from themselves.

Harry glanced at him, pointing to the end, Hagrid is different from Snape, you can't say bad things, otherwise it will really hurt his fragile and soft heart: "I can try to pry the Forbidden Forest." The magical power of the oath, linked to Hogwarts, was made into the Marauder's Map of the Forbidden Forest."

"certainly."

"I am a student of Hogwarts, and I have a sorting hat, which can represent Hogwarts."

"The other side of the oath needs your help, Hagrid."

Hagrid thought for a while, then hesitated and said, "How can I help? Dig out the Forbidden Forest?"

"Creatures from the Forbidden Forest." Harry sighed. "Unicorns, centaurs, thestrals, etc."

"Of course, you can also call your friend of the acromantula to make up for the missing content in the contract."
