the discussion with hagrid

Alex felt a headache from this, he thought he successfully excluded the trio from the plot, but the didn't expect them to suspect Snape as usual in the plot. he thought about hiding the details , but decided against it , since he sooner or later they are going to find out about this anyway.

Alex turned towards the trio and said, " look Snape is a professor in Hogwarts and may have the responsibility to gaurd the thing under the trap door, so just forget about him, if you want many details we can ask someone who know about this".

all three of them asked ," who?". Alex told," Hagrid, of course who is willing to keep a pet like that and successfully control it other than him, he loves those dangerous creatures and it isn't surprise if he brought a dragon egg also".

Harry, Ron and Hermione opened their mouths to say something, but thought about Hagrid and found it is a possibility and asked Alex to tag along with them, he want to say no but Harry grabbed him and went towards Hagrid's hut to ask about fluffy and complain about Snape.

Hagrid at this moment is playing a flute like instrument outside his hut, when he Harry, Ron , Hermoine and Alex approaching ,he smiled and welcomed them. Hermione don't waste any time and talk about Snape and the three headed dog and Hagrid replied," Snape is one of the guardians of the stone , so stop this ahh! I shouldn't have said that".

it is now Harry that butted in and complained about Snape, he even discribed about Snape's wound on halloween and continued complaining and Hagrid finally said, " he isn't the one trying to stole , this matter concerns head master and Nicolas flamel, so don't involve in , I shouldn't have said that ".

Hagrid sent the four of them away and the trio has confused looks while Alex is normal and thinking about how to deal with the stone, he first planned to go to the 4th floor and get the stone alone to avoid trouble for thr trio and stopping voldemort but he can feel whenever he gets near the 4th floor stair case some one is watching him, so he abandoned the idea.

while he is in deep thought Harry is shouting his name and Alex has awakened from his daze and looked towards them and asked," what is it?" , Harry replied ," we are asking whether you knew something about Nicolas flamel". Alex also knew this plot will continue so he didn't hide it and said, " Nicolas flamel us a famous alchemist and he is the inventor of the philosopher's stone, he lived along with his wife from the 14 th century and until now, the philosopher's stone is the reason for his long life, it produces elixir of life giving drinker immortality by continuously drinking it and can turn any material into gold ".

the trio are shocked by this and said in unison," Snape is trying to steal the philosopher's stone , we have to stop him".

Alex replied, " do you have proof and also if you think Snape is the culprit , I also saw quirell sneaking into 4th floor, then quirell is a culprit right?, he is also the one who isn't present in the halloween dinner and also first one to see the troll , don't you think it is too much coincidence".

the trio thought about this and said nothing, they also suspected quirell now. Alex said goodbye to the trio and want to fix his schedule for Christmas , there is so many things to be done in christmas holidays.
