Harry remembered Ron telling him on the train that someone had tried to rob Gringotts, but Ron hadn't mentioned the date. "Hagrid!" said Harry, "that Gringotts break-in happened on my birthday! It might've been happening while we were there!" There was no doubt about it, Hagrid definitely didn't meet Harry's eyes this time. He grunted and offered him another rock cake. Harry read the story again. The vault that was searched had in fact been emptied earlier that same day. Hagrid had emptied vault seven hundred and thirteen, if you could call it emptying, taking out that grubby little package. Had that been what the thieves were looking for? As Harry and Ron walked back to the castle for dinner, their pockets weighed down with rock cakes they'd been too polite to refuse, Harry thought that none of the lessons he'd had so far had given him as much to think about as tea with Hagrid. Had Hagrid collected that package just in time? Where was it now? And did Hagrid know something about Snape that he didn't want to tell Harry?
哈利記得在火車上羅恩曾經告訴他,有人打算打劫格林高斯,不過羅恩沒有對他提及確切的日期。
"哈格力!"哈利嚷起來,"劫案發(fā)生那天,剛好是我的生日!
那時我們也在那兒待過!"當然啦,但哈格力根本不敢和哈利的眼神接觸。他低聲咕餓了幾句,又遞幾塊蛋糕卷給哈利。哈利仔細地把那份剪報再讀一次。
"事實上劫案發(fā)生當天,保險庫里早就空了。"可是這不能說保險庫因此就被清空了吧?如果說,只是把那個臟兮兮的小包裹拿出來,就可以叫做提領一空的話,哈格力確實是在當日把713號地下金庫提領一空。難道那就是搶匪想要找的東西嗎?
哈利和羅恩走回城堡里吃晚飯時,兩個人的口袋里都裝滿了哈格力家那些硬得像石頭似的蛋糕卷。怎么說呢?他們倆實在不好意思拒絕哈格力?。」?,哈格力有沒有及時去取回那個小包包。
那小包現在到哪里去了呢?還有,哈格力是不是知道什么關于史納皮的事,但是他不愿意告訴哈利呢?
