Chapter 481 Confinement Room

Dumbledore's initiative to ask made Hagrid even more nervous. Li Zhuoguang took the cage from Hagrid's hand and lifted the black cloth, revealing Norbert who was chewing on dried fish.

"My family sent me a little dragon, and I don't have the conditions to raise it in my dormitory, so I want to foster it with Mr. Hagrid. He seems to have some experience in raising such large magical animals." Li Zhuoguang lied with his eyes open. Dumbledore already knew that Quirrell was possessed by Voldemort, so how could he not focus on monitoring him?

Including the fact that he used the dragon egg to exchange the weakness of the three-headed dog from Hagrid, it was probably done under Dumbledore's nose.

Dumbledore looked at Li Zhuoguang with a smile in his eyes: "I think Hagrid is happy to help you raise the baby dragon, but the baby dragon will grow up."

Li Zhuoguang waved his hand casually: "When it grows up a little, send it to the dragon farm."

Dumbledore nodded: "Then I have no objection, I believe Hagrid can take good care of it."

"Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Principal, I will settle the feeding expenses with Hagrid privately."

Hagrid also nodded excitedly at Dumbledore.

The result was a happy ending. Hagrid was able to continue raising dragons, and it was fair and square. Although he had been told that the dragon would be sent to the dragon farm after its size became unsuitable for personal breeding.

Hagrid could still accept it. After all, he knew very well that even if Dumbledore agreed to let him raise a dragon, the parents of the students would not agree to a giant dragon with only the ability to hunt to build a nest next to the school.

After successfully solving the problem, Li Zhuoguang passed by the hall, but found that breakfast time had passed and there was no food in the hall. Hagrid immediately invited Li Zhuoguang to his hut for breakfast, and Li Zhuoguang agreed after thinking about it.

After all, the Hogwarts kitchen only provides ordinary meals. Who knows if you can eat the local specialties of the Forbidden Forest at Hagrid's place.

When they returned to Hagrid's hut, they found that everyone else was still waiting here. They were eager to know the progress of the matter. Hagrid told them the final result with great excitement.

When they learned that Hagrid could continue to raise Norbert until it became too big to be raised and then sent to the dragon farm. Everyone agreed that this was the best result.

Hagrid seemed particularly happy that the most worrying thing was solved. He enthusiastically invited everyone to his hut for breakfast. Malfoy didn't want to go into Hagrid's "dirty" hut at all, but when he saw Pojun go there, he followed him in.

Hagrid made tea and added milk from unknown creatures to the tea. He also took out the freshly baked rock skin cake from the oven and placed it on the table, inviting everyone to take it.

Li Zhuoguang and Pojun were not polite. Each of them took a piece of rock cake and started to eat it. This kind of rock cake may be just a small biscuit for Hagrid, but when they held it in their hands, it was bigger than their faces.

But both of them had good appetites. Not to mention this one, they could eat even three pieces. When the rock cake entered their mouths, their eyes lit up. The rock cake was quite chewy, but still crispy. When you eat it in your mouth, you can feel the rich aroma of milk and the fragrance of grains.

Li Zhuoguang praised Hagrid, "I didn't expect you to have this skill. Your rock cake is much better than the cookies made in the school kitchen."

Li Zhuoguang and Pojun ate the rock cake with a mouthful of milk tea. The others saw that they were eating sweetly, and then looked at the rock cake in their hands, wondering if the freshly baked rock cake was relatively soft.

So they took a bite with doubt. Sure enough, it was still the original recipe and the original taste. Hagrid's rock cake is better used as a weapon than as food.

But at least the milk tea tastes good. The others sipped the milk tea and watched Li Zhuoguang and Pojun eat rock cakes one by one. They wondered how their teeth grew.

Almost half of the rock cake prepared by Hagrid was eaten by the two. Before leaving, he even packed the remaining half and gave each little wizard a little. The others could not refuse, so they had to bite the bullet and stuff the rock cake into their robes.

After leaving Hagrid's hut, Malfoy and the trio still disliked each other, but the matter was solved by Li Zhuoguang, and Malfoy had no excuse to make trouble for the time being. After the two groups entered the castle, they went their separate ways.

After Li Zhuoguang and Malfoy returned to the Slytherin common room, Malfoy seemed to remember something and took out a check from his box and handed it to Li Zhuoguang: "This is half of what we agreed on, a total of 11,700 gold galleons."

Li Zhuoguang glanced at the check casually: "This is a lot more than half."

"My dad said that sometimes you shouldn't calculate so clearly, because calculating too clearly makes you look stingy."

Li Zhuoguang casually pushed the gold galleons back: "I'm too lazy to calculate this little gold galleon, you can keep it as pocket money."

"Pocket money?"

"Yes, these gold galleons look a lot, but converted into gold, it's only about six kilograms. I can get more gold coins by grabbing a handful. I'm too lazy to exchange it, so you can keep it for yourself." After that, Li Zhuoguang went back to his desk to read.

Malfoy stared blankly at the check in his hand. He counted it a few times again. That's right, it was ten thousand. Since when did ten thousand gold galleons become comparable to pocket money?

Although the Malfoy family is well-known in the British wizarding world for its wealth, Malfoy only feels like a small country rich man who meets a real local tycoon from the city. For the first time, a feeling of inferiority lingers in his heart.

He shook his head. Although the pocket money is not too much, he really dare not spend this money casually. No, he has to tell his father about this situation.

At dinner time, Li Zhuoguang was still having dinner when Snape came to his door. He didn't say much, just told Li Zhuoguang to find him in the office during dinner.

Before the time of "detention", he asked him to find him. It seems that it is for the content of the transaction. Li Zhuoguang agreed casually.

Malfoy was even more confused. He and Li Zhuoguang were detained together, but he only went to detention once and didn't need to go again, but Li Zhuoguang still needed to be detained.

At first, he was still very proud, thinking that his father's face played a role, but later found that Li Zhuoguang was not as simple as detention. Because once he saw Li Zhuoguang telling Professor Snape to change the detention time because he had something to do at night, and Professor Snape agreed easily.

From then on, Malfoy suspected that Li Zhuoguang did not do detention every Friday night. Combined with his superb spellcasting skills, could he be an apprentice?

Although the apprenticeship system has disappeared for a long time, the teachers at Hogwarts always have other ways to give special treatment to the students they value.

For example, Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration Club and the former Slytherin Dean's Slug Club, especially the Slug Club, are still a very reliable network until now.

I have never seen Professor Snape do something similar before, and it seems that Li Zhuoguang is the first. What is Professor Snape's small group called? Detention room?
