Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Chapter 417 Hagrid's Dilemma

Old Deng must be a little confused now. He followed a certain trail but found nothing.

Sainz actually thought about whether he should hand over the three Horcruxes in his collection to old Dumbledore, but he gave up as he thought about it.

"Oh, I was so busy collecting Horcruxes that I forgot that Old Dumbledore had another difficulty that was almost fatal!"

He suddenly remembered that in the second half of this school year, old Dumbledore guessed that Voldemort might have placed a Horcrux in the cliff cave where he had threatened other members of the orphanage.

Sainz got the locket directly through a transaction with Big Black Dog and never paid any attention to the cave again, but Old Dumbledore didn't know that.

"Hmm? That's not right. As long as Old Dumbledore doesn't actively seek death, that cave shouldn't kill him," Sai thought. "If it were me, after discovering the situation there, I would definitely come back to control a few dark wizards or Death Eaters to help me clear the way."

The original trajectory shows that Lao Fu set up a lot of magic in the cave. The entrance to the cave requires human blood as the activation key. In order to get the pendant box placed in the stone basin, someone needs to drink the potion in the stone basin.

These things are all aimed at gentlemen. If someone goes to get them, he certainly can't go up and give himself a head. Controlling a few scapegoats who step on the mines is a basic operation.

Sainz speculated that the reason why Old Deng personally operated the original trajectory was because he was a gentleman, and it was probably related to the curse on the ring that he had been cursed by beforehand. Of course, due to historical reasons, Old Deng had a tendency to self-destruct and did not value his life very much, which was also a reason that could not be ignored.

The situation this time is different. Mr. Sai had already taken the ring away in advance, and Old Deng was not fooled. He can't possibly die because of this.

Besides, the original trajectory clearly shows that the potion in the stone basin in the cave cannot kill people. Both Old Dumbledore and the elf from Big Black Dog's family drank it and did not die.

Even if Old Deng's choice this time is the same as the original trajectory, without the burden of the curse, it should not cost him his life.

After thinking it over in his mind, Sainz felt relieved.

Even though there are many conspiracy theorists saying that Old Deng is the White Devil, after all these years of contact, Sai is very grateful to him. Even if the two of them will not become close friends who can talk about anything for some reason, he does not want to see his death.

Dumbledore may have his shortcomings and may sacrifice individuals for the sake of greater goals, but his contributions to the stability of the wizarding world and to Hogwarts are indelible.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will find that those whom Old Dumbledore chose to sacrifice were "their own people", all members of the Order of the Phoenix. These people had already agreed with his ideals when they joined the Order of the Phoenix, and they sacrificed for this. It can only be said that they died a worthy death and he cannot blame others.

If you think about it carefully, he really has never deliberately designed to sacrifice irrelevant people. All those who were "sacrificed by him" or "sacrificed for him" were his own people.

When members of an organization join, they must understand the risks involved. It is normal for dangerous situations to occur while performing their tasks.

Of course, in any organization, there are passionate people as well as opportunists. There are rats and thieves in old Deng’s organization.

Sai once criticized Old Deng for only thinking about taking advantage of the members of the Order of Phoenix but not thinking about their welfare. Although he criticized him, he also admitted that most of the members of the Order of Phoenix felt that "some things are worth dying for."

That is the belief of their organization, and other people's opinions are meaningless.

Saiens was thinking whether to destroy the cave or go to the cave to give a hint. "Forget it. Since Old Deng is not doomed, let's ignore it. It's hard to explain how Saiens knew about the cave. I can say that I collected some of the things about Old Fu after he grew up, but it's hard to explain his childhood."

After Old Deng came to look for Sai, he disappeared from the school again.

Sai has been consuming a lot of experimental materials recently and often goes out in his spare time.

"Hey, Sainz!" Hagrid's tall and broad figure appeared in the far corridor, "Are you going out again?"

"Hey, Hagrid, yes, I'm going out to buy some things," Sainz stopped and waited for him to come over, "How are you?"

"Ah!" Hagrid sighed in annoyance, looked around and whispered, "I'm beginning to understand Filch now. These little monkeys are really annoying."

"So you're not happy with your job as an administrator?"

Hagrid looked around furtively again, nodded slightly, and muttered vaguely, "Umbridge, that evil witch, she must have had bad intentions at the time. She must have anticipated this situation and knew which bad guy gave her the idea...

I figured it out. It must be Filch. That damned bastard was just taking revenge on me for usually favoring students. He must have wanted me to have a taste of being tortured by these troublemakers. Well, now his goal has been achieved!"

Sainz rubbed his nose awkwardly. Could he be told that there was no conspiracy at all, and that Umbridge simply wanted to sell out Sainz?

He motioned for Hagrid to follow him to an abandoned classroom, "Close the door."

"what happened?"

"Don't you want to be an administrator?"

In the classroom, Hagrid nodded and admitted without fear of being overheard, "Sainth... you know, I can't use magic for some reason, and those little monkeys are too lively. They try every means to make trouble.

I also have to patrol the forbidden forest to prevent anything from threatening the students. My job as an administrator requires me to stay in school all the time.

...To be honest...I have been going to the Forbidden Forest less often recently, and Grawp is very unhappy...Oh my God...Poor Aragog...He is dying!"

As he spoke, Hagrid burst into tears and sobbed, "His people are starting to behave strangely. I think that now, except for me, anyone who gets close to there will be attacked... Maybe... Maybe later... Later... even I won't be allowed to get close to there anymore."

After becoming friends, Hagrid took the initiative to talk to Sainz about Aragog.

It is a giant eight-eyed spider that Hagrid keeps in the Forbidden Forest. It is as big as an elephant and has bred a colony there.

In recent years, when Mr. Sai was active in the Forbidden Forest, he would consciously eliminate some of them to curb their proliferation. After the centaurs retreated, they became more arrogant, and Mr. Sai had to kill a large number of them. Even so, their numbers were still abnormal.

It seems that the job of administrator is indeed not what Hagrid wants, and it does bring him inconvenience. "Hagrid, I'll find a way."

"Really," Hagrid said tearfully, "I... I can get over it. I don't want Dumbledore to think I'm ungrateful..."

"No," Sainz comforted him, "Just bear with it for a few days. Believe me, it will be resolved soon."

"Thank you, Sainz!" Hagrid tried to give him a big hug, but Sainz dodged it. "You saved my life!"
