Curiosity
At this moment, Harry was very depressed. He finally had a chance to find out who Nicolas Flamel was, but he didn't expect that Albert didn't intend to tell them, and even warned the three that this matter would most likely get them into big trouble.
The inability to satisfy their curiosity made Harry, Ron and Hermione feel extremely depressed.
What exactly is the so-called big trouble?
What precious treasure is Fluffy guarding for Dumbledore?
All of this was like a hand secretly grasping their hearts, making the three of them feel itchy and couldn't help but want to find out what was going on.
Albert probably knew what the treasure Fluffy was guarding, and he might also know who was eyeing that treasure. He might even realize what the so-called big trouble meant, but he had no intention of telling the three of them.
"In other words, does Anderson really know who Nicolas Flamel is?" Harry couldn't help but wonder about this. "What method did he use and how did he know that Nicolas Flamel was related to the treasure guarded by Fluffy? If Hagrid hadn't leaked the truth, they would still be confused."
The strangest thing is that the three of them have been looking through books in the library for so long, but they can't find any records related to Nicolas Flamel. Albert actually knows it, and seems to understand it very well.
Albert always gives Harry a mysterious feeling, as if he knows a lot of things.
"He should know, Harry, you don't know how powerful that Anderson is." Ron's expression was complicated, "That is the most powerful Genius Wizard in the history of Hogwarts."
"The most powerful Genius Wizard?" Harry felt that this title was a bit bluffing. He asked inexplicably, "Is it really powerful?"
"It's really amazing." Hermione said with admiration, "Albert has published a lot of papers in academic magazines. He can easily get the first place in the grade in every exam. I heard that his memory is super good, and he can easily remember the content after reading it for a while."
"If only I had that kind of memory."
Ron also envied Albert's kind of memory. If he could have that kind of memory, he wouldn't have to worry about not being able to remember it when reciting textbooks.
"It seems really powerful." Harry nodded and said.
In fact, he didn't know much about any of this, so his impression of Albert was just that of an ordinary genius, an enhanced version of the kind of outstanding student he met in elementary school who had particularly good grades, excelled in sports, and was particularly popular.
"Do you want to tell Hagrid about this matter?" Hermione said suddenly. She was also more inclined to Albert to know about this matter, and she also knew what the treasure Fluffy was guarding? "You're right, maybe we should talk to Hagrid. Are there any classes in the afternoon?" Harry thought for a while and asked, if Albert is really as powerful as they said, maybe...
"We have classes, we'd better go find Hagrid tomorrow afternoon." Hermione suggested.
"By the way, Harry, don't you want Galleon back?" Ron suddenly asked.
"Fred said he would help me find someone from Slytherin to collect the debt, but he may not be able to get the money back." Harry didn't pay much attention to the Galleon he was betting on. He was not short of money at all.
"I think they went a little too far." Hermione frowned. She had not forgotten the scene where Fred secretly used magic on the Slytherin Quidditch Team leader. Moreover, she also heard that some people took off the other person's pants to exchange money. This kind of thing was too bad.
"No, no, this is not excessive at all." Ron calmly analyzed. "It's those people at Slytherin who don't want to pay back the money, so Fred and George did that."
Although Ron doesn't like Fred and George who often tease him, he still stands by Twins on this matter From's point of view, if he were Harry, he would have followed everyone to find trouble for Slytherin. At least he would have waited for others to knock him down, then sneak up and kick him.
"Ron."
"Hermione, if all your money was defrauded, wouldn't you be angry?" Ron looked at Hermione and said dryly, "I definitely can't bear it anyway."
Harry doesn't care about that Galleon because Harry is rich, but for Ron whose total money is less than one Galleon, this kind of thing is intolerable.
Regarding Albert, Ron actually has a pretty good impression.
In fact, everyone in Weasley family has a very good impression of Albert, whether it is his parents, Charlie, Percy, Fred and George, or even Ginny all has a good impression of Albert, and Ron is no exception. Although he doesn't know exactly how Fred and George got their money, he has a friend who has a strong connection and is willing to help you and make a fortune with you. How can he have a bad impression? "Next time, definitely next time!" Ron muttered to himself.
"What did you say?" Harry asked in confusion.
"Nothing." Ron shook his head.
The next afternoon, which happened to be Friday, Gryffindor had no classes in the first grade. Harry, Ron and Hermione went to Hagrid's Hut to have afternoon tea with him, and they talked about Nicolas Flamel again.
"This matter has nothing to do with you." Hagrid was furious. He was angry with himself. Since the last time he accidentally mentioned Nicolas Flamel, Harry, Ron and Hermione obviously had no intention of giving up investigating this matter.
"Albert said the same thing. He said getting involved in this matter will bring us big trouble." Harry said while observing Hagrid's expression, "He seems to know who Nicolas Flamel is, and he also seems to know what Fluffy is guarding!"
"Albert?" Hagrid was stunned for a moment, seemed to remember something, and muttered to himself, "I must talk to him, I must talk to him."
Hagrid started writing a letter, planning to invite Albert to come to his place for tea on Saturday.
This time, he was very cautious and did not mention a single word in front of the Harry trio, lest he leaked anything again.
"He is right, Harry. Listen to Albert and stop dwelling on this matter, otherwise you will definitely be in big trouble." Hagrid knew that someone was targeting Philosopher's Stone knew better that it was impossible for Harry to get Philosopher's Stone by passing through the mechanism arranged by the professors. However, the situation of Albert was different. If he knew about it, the situation would be very bad.
Hagrid has not forgotten that Albert knows how to subdue Fluffy, and he dared to create Forbidden Forest late at night when he was in the first grade. Hagrid has to doubt whether the mechanism arranged by Hogwarts professors is effective against Albert.
If Albert wants to take advantage of Philosopher's Stone, he must tell Dumbledore about it.
