Chapter 97 The Last Dinner
After the exam, William, Cedric, and Cho went to see Hagrid.
Hagrid was wearing an oversized apron, humming a little tune, and was happily busy in front of the boiler.
Fang Ya was tied to the table, and it kept struggling and roaring, as if being tortured.
The three stood at the window, and Qiu asked softly, "Hagrid, what are you doing?"
"Oh, it's you three little fellows, come in quickly, come and taste it!" Hagrid waved his hand hastily.
Fang Ya was still roaring, as if Hagrid's words had driven him into despair.
The three walked in and gathered around the boiler, watching Hagrid lift the lid.
Turns out he was making cakes!
It was a big steaming chocolate cake with green icing on it:
HAPPEE BIRTHDAE HARRY.
emmmm... is Hagrid serious? All words were misspelled except Harry.
And that cake... The dark color is like silt, and the hardness is more like rock skin cake. Is it really not used to kill people?
Fang Fang smelled the smell and began to struggle frantically again.
"Oh, Yaya, I know you want to eat it, but don't worry, this cake, give William a taste of the three of them, including Bobo tea of course." Hagrid comforted and touched William's arms Bobo. Cat head with tea.
Ya Ya seemed relieved and stopped struggling, but Bobo Tea began to struggle.
Cedric asked, "Hagrid, how many cakes have you served to Fang?"
"Not much, just three."
William felt that Fang Ya would be held to death if not poisoned by Hagrid's dark cooking.
He glanced at Qiu and Cedric quickly, and hurriedly covered his mouth and said, "Hagrid, it's a pity... I've been eating too much sugar recently, and I have some cavities. I can't eat sweets, it hurts!"
Qiu Ru was struck by lightning, this was the reason she wanted to say just now, but she was preempted. She glared at William fiercely.
"Oh, that's it." Hagrid thought seriously. "You should really protect your teeth. Roy sent me a lot of dental care products."
Hagrid and Roy are friends, and Roy often sends Hagrid some books about dental care.
"Come on, the two of you still have Bobo tea. Divide this cake and eat it. You're welcome. After eating, you still have it. Enough!"
"..."
"Hagrid, has Professor Dumbledore agreed to let you pick up Potter?" William asked after letting go of the Bobo tea.
For this matter, Hagrid went to William's house last summer. Although it was not satisfactory, he had gained experience.
"Yes." Hagrid said happily, "He has agreed. Dumbledore is really a good man. Of course, he can only give this job to me. I can be trusted!"
Hagrid was proud.
"By the way, thank you for your advice. I went to talk to Dumbledore in the morning."
"What was it about?"
"Of course it's Lu Wei." Hagrid said mysteriously.
William looked blankly at Hagrid.
Dumbledore had long known that the Three-Headed Dog was hiding in the Room of Requirement, but he didn't say it. William also mentioned this matter, and Dumbledore said that he would keep Lou Wei.
But Hagrid didn't know that.
Hagrid said happily, "Headmaster, he agreed with me to raise Lu Wei, and he even got me a breeding certificate.
But temporarily need to keep Lou Wei in the castle, he wants to borrow it. "
All three were stunned, including William.
"Why did the principal borrow Lou Wei?" Cedric asked tentatively.
"It's--I don't know--probably Dumbledore likes to play with dogs, Lu Wei is so cute!"
Hagrid avoided telling the truth.
The three of William looked at each other and found that the situation was not that simple.
But that's okay,
Hagrid was always the weakest point of entry.
"By the way, you have a new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor." Hagrid began to change the subject.
"who is it?"
? "Professor Quirrell, oh, I remember him, reading well in school.
But then he took a year off from school and traveled the world in order to gain some first-hand practical experience.
I hadn't seen him in years, and Dumbledore said he would be the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor next school year. "
William raised his eyebrows, and he was really not afraid of death. Just look at Robert and Professor Tywin to know how dangerous this position is.
Hagrid was very happy. "Thank goodness Professor Quirrell is willing to take over this position. Since Tywin was arrested in Azkaban, no one has applied for a few months."
William and the others tried to lead the topic to Lu Wei, but Hagrid only talked about Professor Quirrell, and his tone was very strict. It seemed that the Headmaster had explained something to him.
In the end, several people did not get anything of value from Hagrid.
In the evening, the school held a year-end banquet.
The Great Hall is decorated with Ravenclaw's sky blue and bronze to celebrate their break from the Slytherin monopoly and the House Cup.
On the wall behind the guest of honor, there is a huge banner with a Ravenclaw eagle painted on it.
When William entered the auditorium, there was a sudden silence in the hall, and then suddenly everyone started talking loudly again.
During this period of time, the Daily Prophet reported on William's affairs, and it was not an exaggeration to receive such attention.
A moment later, Dumbledore arrived, and the noise in the auditorium gradually subsided.
"Another year has passed!" said Dumbledore gleefully, "I must ask you to listen to an old man's clichés before you can indulge in these delicacies.
What a wonderful year it has been! Your little brains must be richer than in the past... The whole summer vacation is waiting for you, so you can digest those things well and free up your mind before the next semester starts...?"
"Right now, as far as I know, we will first have the Academy Cup award ceremony, and the specific scores for each academy are as follows:
Fourth, Gryffindor, eighty-nine points; third, Hufflepuff, two hundred and forty-eight points; second, Slytherin, three hundred and twelve points; first, pull Wenclaw, four hundred and eighty. "?
The Ravenclaw table erupted with thunderous cheers and stomps.
All the Gryffindor students bowed their heads and said nothing.
There is a big gap between their college and several other colleges.
The polarization is so serious because too many points were deducted in the early stage, and it took a long time to catch up before it finally became positive.
And because of Tywin, the Quidditch final was canceled, resulting in neither Gryffindor nor Hufflepuff getting the championship and runner-up points of the Quidditch Cup.
Dumbledore raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.
"This score is not the final score, and an event that happened some time ago must also be counted." ?
It became very quiet in the auditorium.
"Uh, uh," Dumbledore cleared his throat, "let me see, Mr. William Stark..."?
All eyes were on William again.
"He's captured the most important criminals at the Ministry of Magic and protected Hogwarts students from the Death Eaters, something the school hadn't had in many years.
I'm going to reward him with the Outstanding Contribution Award to his school, and of course, I'll give Ravenclaw a hundred percent for that. "?
The cheers of the Ravenclaws nearly knocked the enchanted ceiling over. The stars above them also seemed to be shaken.
Everyone is not because William added a hundred percent to the academy, but because he won the school's outstanding contribution award.
This is an amazing achievement, and the school will issue a gold medal that will be permanently placed in the prizes gallery.
After the principal's announcement, every student happily ate the food that appeared in front of them, talking loudly about the summer vacation.
William ate fast, knowing that if he didn't eat fast, he wouldn't be able to eat.
Sure enough, in the middle of the dinner, Peeves suddenly appeared on the Slytherin table with two huge dung bombs.
A strong pungent gas quickly filled the auditorium.
William and the others fled while taking advantage of the chaos.
It would have been a great night without the distraction of the big dung eggs.
But no matter what, William's first-year career is finally coming to an end.
