Chapter 484: Bar

After returning to Hogwarts, Bai Lang saw Harry and the others still idle—this guy didn't look like he had solved the mystery of the golden egg at all, but Hagrid seemed to have left Hogwarts temporarily due to the rumor-mongering reporter. Considering some problems, especially the fact that young wizards couldn't sneak to London or other places on their days off, he finally just let a professional fur factory help deal with Greyback's head fur.

As for the whole fur of the other werewolf, he could only buy a bunch of chemical reagents and several professional manuals to solve this problem himself. The bones were processed earlier than the fur, and so was the giant's head. In this way, next time he returns to the residence he bought, Bai Lang can put all these things in the living room. The death of the werewolf leader Greyback seems to be unknown to the wizarding world.

Because there was no news at all in the Daily Prophet, Bai Lang's work seemed to be too clean. And the traces of those werewolves were indeed mysterious, and now that they were wiped out, they disappeared mysteriously like this. As for Voldemort's news, there would be even less. In Fudge's Ministry of Magic, discussing topics like the return of the mysterious man belongs to political incorrectness, and now, except for Dumbledore and a very few others, others really didn't think about the return of the mysterious man.

Bai Lang's school career was mediocre. In the Charms class, he still competed with Neville for the honor of the bottom ranking in Gryffindor, and in the Potions class, he made various explosive potions with Seamus, serving as a stable point-deduction output. As for Transfiguration? Bai Lang, who could become an Animagus, was simply a piece of shit at transforming other things, which made Professor McGonagall very puzzled.

Fortunately, Bai Lang's written work had always been good, definitely achieving good grades in History of Magic, and the same was true for Magical Plants, and Magical Creatures of course... As for the remaining courses, as long as they didn't involve actual magic operation, Bai Lang did quite well. Because he had nothing to distract him except practicing martial arts, although Neville was far less powerful than Bai Lang, in Bai Lang's view, if he really faced a werewolf, Neville holding a sword and shield would have a fight.

Bai Lang's status at Hogwarts was once again fully confirmed. The situation of defeating the dragon became the cornerstone of his status after precipitation—he was now undoubtedly the school bully recognized by the whole grade, a man who dominated by force. However, this person seemed to have a special cleanliness for forming cliques. Up to now, there had been no move to accept anyone outside the small circle from the beginning—it was still one or two people like Zabini of Slytherin, Neville of Gryffindor, and a kid from Hufflepuff. Apart from that, no one could join this small circle.

The people in this small circle didn't take pleasure in promoting their identity and bullying others, because Bai Lang had no interest at all.

On the way to relax in Hogsmeade, in the Three Broomsticks bar, Bai Lang saw Harry and the others, and also saw Bagman say a few words to Harry, and then Rita Skeeter, the rumor-mongering reporter, and her photographer came in, and then had a small verbal conflict with Harry and the others. "Want to ruin someone's life again?" Harry said loudly. Several people turned their faces. Rita Skeeter saw who was speaking, and the eyes behind the jeweled glasses widened suddenly.

"Harry!" She said, suddenly smiling, "Great! Why don't you come over and join—"

"Even if I were riding a ten-foot-long flying broomstick, I wouldn't want to get close to you!" Harry said angrily, "Why do you treat Hagrid like that, huh?" Then Harry said a lot of stupid things—like "Who cares if he is a half-giant? There is nothing abnormal about him!" This kind of talk basically completely confirmed that Rita's rumors were true. Even if someone didn't believe Rita's report—by the way, there were many such people—now they would know that Rita had rarely told the truth because of Harry's words.

Bai Lang drank the butterbeer in his hand with a wry smile. He and Zabini were huddled in the depths of the bar, not particularly highlighting his existence. The whole small tavern suddenly became silent. Madam Rosmerta looked over from behind the bar—she was pouring mead into a large flagon, and the flagon was overflowing, but she didn't notice.

Rita Skeeter's smile flickered slightly, but she immediately fixed it again. She opened her crocodile leather handbag, took out her Quick-Quotes Quill, and said: "Willing to talk to me about what you know about Hagrid, Harry? The humanity behind the muscles? Your inexplicable friendship, and the reasons behind the friendship. Do you just see him as a father?" Hermione stood up angrily, just as the conflict was about to deepen.

"Alright, that's enough." Bai Lang's voice sounded in the tavern with a lazy tone, "Harry, Hermione, are you two really Hagrid's friends? If so, I have to say his luck is really bad... actually becoming those people who add fuel to the rumors about him. Think about what you said, Harry, think more, use your brain more, don't be so impulsive. Hermione, I thought you would be very smart..."

Bai Lang walked over with a beer mug, "Miss Rita Skeeter, I hope not to see your report on this matter in the Daily Prophet tomorrow and after, don't involve anyone here. If I see any word about this matter and these people in any newspaper, I will blame you, madam. I won't be polite then."

His eyes blinked, as if they were contracting into a vertical line under the light like a large feline, but if you look carefully, nothing changed. Bai Lang's tone was very gentle, but Rita Skeeter could only look into his eyes and say, "I won't, Mr. Langen, you won't see such a report." Bai Lang nodded, greeted Harry, and placed the empty glass on the bar.

After going out, Zabini also asked casually, "Will Rita really not report it?" Bai Lang smiled, "No, she will forget my words soon after I walk out of this door. Not everyone can see some situations clearly without suffering." Zabini also shrugged his shoulders. Anyway, it was Bai Lang who spoke, so naturally, it was Bai Lang who considered the subsequent problems. "Violence can't solve the problem for the time being. The best way to solve this problem is actually gold Galleons."

Bai Lang understood this truth very well. Rita dared to oppose many things—from the Ministry of Magic to Dumbledore, but she dared not oppose the boss who gave her money...

When he wandered around Hogsmeade enough and went back, he happened to see the trio coming out of Hagrid's hut. It seemed Hagrid was back. ===== CHAPTER 485 =====
