Chapter 457 I want to spoil the story
Ever since seeing the report about dragon eggs in the Daily Prophet, Albert began to secretly observe the changes in Quirrell, and he was probably sure that the other party had successfully obtained a dragon egg.
After coming to this conclusion, a very bold idea suddenly came to Albert's mind. If I broke into Quirrell's room quietly and stole the dragon egg directly, in which direction would this matter develop?
Chilo might be so angry that he vomits blood?
After all, before he could successfully steal the Magic Stone, his own things were stolen first.
With no dragon egg, can Quirrell ask Hagrid for a way to subdue Lu Wei?
Will he get another dragon egg, or directly use violent methods to break 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 from the panel tasks are rich enough, Albert would not mind taking risks to make the future more interesting.
However, the benefits of preventing Voldemort from stealing the Philosopher's Stone are indeed considerable, but they are not enough to make Albert crazy enough to change the direction of the future.
Although the known future is indeed a bit boring, it is better than safety!
Albert is already thinking about how to use the dragon egg incident to give himself tasks and benefit.
Compared to the unicorn incident, the dragon egg incident is obviously easier and safer.
Albert thought carefully for a few days and decided to do something sexy.
The identity of a prophet can be put to good use, and it can also be used to guide (fool) Porter in the future to gain more benefits for himself.
"I am indeed a very realistic person!" Albert couldn't help but laugh at himself when he thought of this.
He was ready to tell Hagrid that his wish to raise a dragon was about to come true, and by the way, he made Hagrid believe that he could prophesy.
Before dinner, Albert separated from his roommates and hurried through the hall towards Hagrid's hut. He was stopped on the way.
"What's the matter, Miss Granger?" Albert stopped and looked at Hermione who stopped him in confusion.
"It's nothing, I just think it's weird that you left the castle during dinner time." Hermione's face showed a hint of embarrassment, but she did not hide her curiosity. "Can I go with you to find Hagrid? Of course. If you find it inconvenient, forget it.”
"It's not an inconvenience. If you don't mind missing dinner and getting hungry, I don't mind." Albert shrugged.
Actually, he just told Fred, George and Lee Jordan that he had something to go to Hagrid, just to tell Hermione.
Albert does not deny that Hermione is very smart, but even a smart person will still fall into the trap without realizing it under the guidance of others intentionally or unintentionally.
It is true that curiosity killed the cat. Hermione had already become curious about Albert last time, and some abnormal behavior would undoubtedly attract her curiosity.
Of course, even if you fail, it doesn’t matter.
“What do you want from Hagrid?”
Halfway through, Hermione asked tentatively.
Albert did not answer Hermione's question immediately, and the two walked along the gravel path to Hagrid's hut. Albert immediately reached out and knocked on the wooden door of Hagrid's cabin.
"Why are you here?" Hagrid was having dinner. He opened the door and looked at Albert and Hermione outside the door in surprise. He didn't understand why they came at this time.
"There is something I want to tell you." Albert walked into the hut quickly, looked around immediately, and walked to the stove to look carefully, as if he was looking for something.
“What are you looking for?” Hagrid couldn’t help but ask.
"Last night, I had a dream." Albert looked at the confused Hagrid and said calmly: "I dreamed that you got a fire dragon egg, hatched it, and kept the fire dragon in the cabin. Inside. Later, your hut was set on fire, and Yaya was inside."
"Wait what dragon egg? Are you referring to the dream?" Hagrid looked at Albert in confusion and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"
Hermione also thought Albert's reaction was strange. Why did he take the dream seriously?
"It seems that you haven't got the dragon egg yet?" Albert showed a genuine expression, "In the near future, you should get a dragon egg, and try to hatch it and raise it in the cabin. inside."
“Albert, that was just a dream.” Hermione reminded awkwardly.
"Of course I know it's just a dream, but as someone who masters divination, I know exactly what it means." Albert noticed the looks of Hermione and Hagrid and explained impatiently, " This is a prophecy.”
“Prophecy?”
Hermione stared at Albert dumbfounded, even thinking that he was crazy.
“You mean I’m going to get a dragon egg and raise a dragon?”
Hagrid asked in disbelief. Although he instinctively found this thing incredible, Albert seemed to have no reason to deceive himself, and there was no need to do so.
At least, Albert has never deceived himself.
As for the so-called divination, Hagrid has forgotten about it.
“You can tell?” Hermione thought of the rumors that Albert could predict.
Does he really have the power of prophecy?
Albert ignored Hermione's doubts, looked at Hagrid with a complicated expression and said, "It's very unsafe in the Forbidden Forest recently. If you go there, you'd better be careful."
"Forbidden Forest?" Hagrid was even more confused. He had just entered the Forbidden Forest not long ago and didn't feel anything was wrong.
"It's not very peaceful in the Forbidden Forest. I once made a prophecy related to the Forbidden Forest. I have a feeling that this prophecy may be fulfilled."
"Are you really okay?" Hagrid asked worriedly, "I feel like you've become mysterious."
"I know that some things are really hard to believe. After all, no one will believe that these things will happen before they happen." Albert shook his head and said: "Believe a little, and it won't do you any harm. You will soon be You will realize that what I say is true.”
Hagrid opened his mouth, and finally nodded stiffly.
He also didn’t think Albert would come and tell him these strange things out of nowhere.
Unless he is crazy?
Is Albert crazy?
Apparently not.
So, what about the second possibility?
Can Albert really predict the future?
Before Hagrid could come to his senses, Albert turned around and left, with no intention of staying any longer.
On the way back to the castle, Albert noticed Hermione's doubtful gaze and explained: "You don't know, Hagrid caused a lot of trouble when he raised Lu Wei. If he raises a dragon this time, That would be a real disaster, you should know that wizards are not allowed to raise dragons."
