Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone: Chapter 14 - Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback


Chapter 14

Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback

Classwork and school responsibilities over the next few weeks make it impossible for the children to think, or even talk about the Stone. But Quirrell seems to be more courageous than they expected. It appears that as the weeks progress, he has not surrendered to Snape. And Snape continues to be in a constant bad mood. The children still have hope.

But there is something else that happens that distracts the children even more: it is Hagrid. They see him one evening in the castle, coming from the library. He is walking back to his house. He keeps looking over his shoulder, as if someone is following him. He is acting very suspiciously. The children decide to investigate. “Hello, Hagrid,” Harry says, as they approach him. “How are you?”

“Nothing!” Hagrid responds, suspiciously. “I don’t have anything under my coat. Er… ah, what are you all doing here? Are you following me?” Hagrid is obviously hiding something under his coat, behind his back, but the children don’t mention it. “Are you still looking for Flamel?” Hagrid asks. “Oh, we know all about the Philosopher’s Stone, and Fluffy…” begins Hermione. “Shhhh!” yells Hagrid, “Don’t go talking about that in public!”

Norberto, o dragão norueguês

Classwork and school responsibilities over the next few weeks make it impossible for the children to think, or even talk about the Stone. But Quirrell seems to be more courageous than they expected. It appears that as the weeks progress, he has not surrendered to Snape. And Snape continues to be in a constant bad mood. The children still have hope.
As tarefas escolares e as responsabilidades escolares nas próximas semanas impossibilitam que as crianças pensem ou mesmo falem sobre a Pedra. Mas Quirrell parece ser mais corajoso do que esperavam. Parece que com o passar das semanas, ele não se rendeu a Snape. E Snape continua de mau humor constante. As crianças ainda têm esperança.

But there is something else that happens that distracts the children even more: it is Hagrid. They see him one evening in the castle, coming from the library. He is walking back to his house. He keeps looking over his shoulder, as if someone is following him. He is acting very suspiciously. The children decide to investigate. “Hello, Hagrid,” Harry says, as they approach him. “How are you?”
Mas acontece outra coisa que distrai ainda mais as crianças: é Hagrid. Eles o veem uma noite no castelo, vindo da biblioteca. Ele está voltando para sua casa. Ele fica olhando por cima do ombro, como se alguém o estivesse seguindo. Ele está agindo de forma muito suspeita. As crianças decidem investigar. “Olá, Hagrid,” Harry diz, enquanto eles se aproximam dele. "Como vai você?"

“Nothing!” Hagrid responds, suspiciously. “I don’t have anything under my coat. Er… ah, what are you all doing here? Are you following me?” Hagrid is obviously hiding something under his coat, behind his back, but the children don’t mention it. “Are you still looking for Flamel?” Hagrid asks. “Oh, we know all about the Philosopher’s Stone, and Fluffy…” begins Hermione. “Shhhh!” yells Hagrid, “Don’t go talking about that in public!”
"Nada!" Hagrid responde, desconfiado. “Não tenho nada debaixo do casaco. Er… ah, o que vocês estão fazendo aqui? Vocês estão me seguindo?" Hagrid obviamente está escondendo algo debaixo do casaco, atrás das costas, mas as crianças não mencionam isso. “Você ainda está procurando por Flamel?” Hagrid pergunta. “Oh, nós sabemos tudo sobre a Pedra Filosofal e Fluffy...” começa Hermione. “Shhh!” grita Hagrid, "Não fale sobre isso em público!"
