Chapter 387: backflip
Chapter 387 Backflip
As the only injured person in this dementor attack, Harry had to stay in the school hospital throughout the weekend.
There was an endless stream of people coming to see him, all intent on making him happy, but it was hard for Harry to laugh.
His broom was broken and was broken in two.
Yes, if you fall from a height of fifty feet, it will definitely break.
Harry had already thought of this when he woke up, but after seeing the fragments of the broom, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Even though Wood told him that it could be repaired, just go to Diagon Alley and spend some gold to make it like new.
But he can't go to Diagon Alley at all now...he can't even go to Hogsmeade.
In addition, there was another thing that also concerned Harry.
In the first divination class, Professor Trelawney saw something ominous in his divination results, which looked like a black dog.
During the game, there happened to be such a black dog in the stands... and then he fell from a height of fifty feet.
It's just that Harry didn't mention it to anyone, not to Ron or Hermione, because he knew that Ron would panic and Hermione would sneer. He knew these two friends too well.
He wanted to get a real and pertinent advice, because the black dog had appeared twice, and every time it appeared it was accompanied by fatal danger.
The last time he appeared was before the start of school, when he was almost hit by the Knight Bus, and this time he fell off the broomstick again.
Should he be wary of this beast in the future?
There are also dementors…
Harry sat silently on the hospital bed, listening absentmindedly to Hermione telling him interesting things that happened at school.
Kayle’s Dragonscale Badge is in high demand again.
“I don’t think it’s very useful, but most people say it’s very effective.”
Hermione fiddled with the badge on her chest, "Dean Thomas said that he didn't feel the dementors at all, but in fact, he almost cried before those patronus appeared.
I was standing by at the time and saw it clearly. "
“But how do you explain Neville’s situation.”
Ron was dissatisfied: "He wore two, and his condition was countless times better than when he was on the train. He was even able to visit Harry."
"It may be that he is already familiar with the influence of dementors." Hermione said, "It has nothing to do with whether he wears a badge or not."
Ron obviously didn't think so, and said seriously: "Everyone knows that there is no familiar way to say this kind of thing, and it will only become more and more scary."
Listening to their conversation, Harry suddenly thought whether Kyle could give him some advice about the elusive black dog.
By the way, he also wanted to ask about a way to deal with Dementors...that is, the Patronus Charm. He remembered what Professor McGonagall said before.
…
The opportunity came quickly.
When he returned to school on Monday, Harry happened to see Kyle and Cedric walking towards the auditorium.
He quickly stepped forward and took this opportunity to ask his doubts.
“Black dog?”
"Yes," said Harry, "I saw it in the stands before, and then it fell fifty feet, and I was wondering if there was any solution.
You probably don’t know that I also saw it when I was on Magnolia Crescent... If it were an ordinary dog, there would be no way it could be chased from Privet Drive to Hogwarts, right? ” ˆ ˆ “Well...”
Cedric thought for a moment and said, "Is it possible that you made a mistake? After all, as long as the breed, size and coat color are similar, it is difficult for us to tell whether they are the same dog."
"this…"
Harry hesitated. It was very dark at the time. He only took a quick glance and was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the Knight Bus. There was indeed a possibility of admitting his mistake.
But isn’t this a bit too coincidental.
“I don’t know the situation at Privet Drive,”
At this time, Kyle suddenly said: "But the one you found in the stands should be a good dog... It is very big, and its hair is tangled, as if it has never been bathed."
“You’ve seen it too?” Harry asked in surprise.
“It was the last time I went to Hogsmeade.”
Kyle said with a smile: "It was lying in front of a shop. I played with it for a while. I think it probably wandered over from there."
"What?" Harry still didn't understand. "You mean it was raised in Hogsmeade, and it's not unknown?"
"If it's a black dog, it means something ominous. What about Hagrid?" Kyle said, "Don't forget that Fang is also black."
After being reminded like this, Harry realized that this seemed to be the case.
Fang is a black hound owned by Hagrid. You can see it every time you go to the Care of Magical Creatures class...
"And..." Kyle continued: "That dog is very humane and very smart. He is good at rolling, shaking hands, and crawling through fire rings.
You can try it next time you see it, it’s really interesting.
“I strongly recommend the backflip,” said Cedric. “I dare say even some trained swallow-tailed dogs don’t have the standard for it.”
"I think it would be nice to make a ring of fire," Kyle said. "Make three circles of different sizes. It feels like playing a different kind of Quidditch."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Harry's disgust and fear of black dogs gradually disappeared.
If many people see it, maybe it is really just like Yaya, just an ordinary dog.
And this was walking through a ring of fire and doing a backflip... Harry suddenly felt a little curious. Is that dog really as smart as Kyle said?
It's a pity that he can't go to Hogsmeade, but he can tell Ron and Hermione to look for it.
"Oh, by the way." Kyle reminded: "If you want to see it perform its talents, remember to get some food, otherwise the lazy dog will not move."
Harry nodded, indicating that he remembered.
“One more thing,” he said, “can you teach me how to use the Patronus Charm... I don’t want to faint again next time I see a Dementor.”
"Well..." Kyle hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Although I really want to teach you, I may not have that much time recently.
Three training sessions a week, plus some other activities, my spare time is almost full. "
Harry was a little disappointed.
But soon, Kyle continued: "But you can go to Professor Lupin, he can also do this magic spell."
"Yes, Professor Lupin!" Harry said in surprise, "Hermione told me, he made the dementor on the train move back."
“Thank you, Kyle.”
Harry didn't even eat and hurried towards Professor Lupin's office.
