Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 89 Planning and Probing

Heading to the Forbidden Forest tonight?
The four of them immediately turned pale. They had just overheard that there were inexplicably dead animals in the Forbidden Forest.No wonder Professor Haimer didn't stop Hagrid from continuing to talk before, it turned out that he had said it deliberately for them to hear.

Malfoy said frightenedly, "We can't go in in the middle of the night - there's everything in there - I've heard there are werewolves."

"This is not for you to make a decision."

Toby said coldly: "First of all, Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, and Miss Granger, the mistakes you three have made need to make up for it, so that you realize the preciousness of life—the Forbidden Forest is It is a very good training place, and you will thank me when you come out alive."

As soon as Ron's body softened, Professor Haimer remembered everything. He had no intention of letting them go from the beginning, and he didn't even give them any favor by notifying Fire Dragon in advance.

Harry looked at Ron and Hermione, hoping that they could deny Malfoy's statement about werewolves, but after seeing the eyes of the two, his heart sank. Perhaps the Forbidden Forest was more terrifying than what Malfoy described.

"As for you, Mr. Malfoy."

Toby turned his head to look at Draco, with an irresistible look in his eyes: "You deliberately tricked yourself again and again, but you were caught every time, it seems that you need to learn from Slater. Lin is smart."

"Go to the Forbidden Forest, you will learn a lot of useful things there."

What's the reason for this?
Malfoy wanted to protest loudly, but he knew it was useless anyway, not even his father Lucius could suppress him, let alone himself.

Hagrid was also taken aback by Toby's sudden decision. He tried to comfort him and said, "Is this too exaggerated? You don't need to go to the Forbidden Forest all at once, do you?"

But Hagrid's idea obviously didn't work for Toby.The treatment of the trio was a punishment Toby had long thought of, and only facing real danger and intimidation would be enough to make up for their mistakes.

As for Draco, of course he was going to the Forbidden Forest too.Toby took the opportunity to observe whether Draco was suspicious, and then judged Lucius Malfoy's suspiciousness-this was related to the question of the mysterious guest-an animal that died inexplicably in the Forbidden Forest?
This is the only doubtful point, and it needs to be investigated carefully.

"Don't worry, Hagrid." Toby pulled back his long hair and smiled at Hagrid: "How many times have I been to the Forbidden Forest, I will protect them well."

Anyone who is familiar with Professor Haimer knows that what he said is definitely not the truth, and the four people who happened to be punished are familiar with him—Professor Haimer's smile cannot be taken seriously.

But Hagrid believed it.

"That's right, the horsemen often mention you, they always meet you and Al in various places—huh? Harry, what's wrong with you?"

Hagrid looked at the winking Harry suspiciously, not understanding what he meant.

After seeing Professor Highmore looking over, Harry immediately lowered his head.After hesitating for a while, Hermione cautiously suggested: "Professor, will Hagrid go with us too—"

"Hey! Hagrid, look!" Toby interrupted Hermione suddenly: "Norbert is awake, you can stay in the cabin tonight and take good care of him, after all, you can't get along with him for too long time."

Hagrid was happily taking care of Norbert who had woken up from being knocked out. After hearing these words, he quickly asked, "Why can't it be too long?"

"Because I told you in advance that I will send him away before Norbert grows up, and it will not be long before it will be as big as your house."

"I can keep it in the Forbidden Forest—"

"Come on, Hagrid, Norbert is a dragon, and he'll set the Forbidden Forest on fire—well, let's go."

Toby bid farewell to the grief-stricken Hagrid, and he left the cabin with the four students without any explanation.

After walking a long distance, Toby stopped in front of the fence. At this time, there was no smile on his face.

"Remember, come to my office to find me at eleven o'clock tonight."

The four of them nodded their heads silently, not daring to refuse.

After Professor Highmore left, Malfoy glanced at them, and Ron and Harry looked at him fearlessly.

As if considering that Goyle and Crabbe were not around, Malfoy didn't make any more taunts, but walked faster alone, and soon walked away.

"Look at how stupid he was just now." Ron pretended to imitate: "[I heard there are werewolves in the Forbidden Forest], I dare say, man, this is almost a perfect day, if we don't have to go to the Forbidden Forest It's even better."

Harry was amused, but he quickly asked worriedly, "Are there really werewolves in the Forbidden Forest?"

"I don't know." Ron cheered up and encouraged, "But it shouldn't be that dangerous. Both Fred and George have been to the Forbidden Forest many times. Didn't they have serious problems?"

That didn't comfort Harry - nothing major meant just minor problems.

"Hermione, what do you think?" Harry had no choice but to turn to Hermione for help.

Hermione said disappointedly: "I have some news that you definitely don't want to know-Mr. Al once gave Diggory a gold Galleon-don't get excited, Ron, that gold Galleon It was left by a student who went missing in the Forbidden Forest, and Mr. Al said it might be a Hufflepuff student."

"If you want to get the inheritance of the missing or dead Gryffindor students, I will certainly not object to you doing so, but the premise is that you can survive in the Forbidden Forest, otherwise someone else will find your inheritance."

Ron became sadder than the two combined: "I don't want to die in the Forbidden Forest, and I don't have any inheritance, and I can't take out a Knut all over my body."

They stood silently for a while, and saw that Hagrid finally came out of the cabin and walked directly in front of them.

"You haven't left yet?" The sadness on Hagrid's face disappeared, and he lowered his voice excitedly and said, "I think Norbert has begun to feel familiar with me, and he is about to go to the chicken coop to find some chickens to bleed , mixed with brandy—do you want to watch it together? It must be lovely for a baby dragon to eat."

They watched as Hagrid walked into the coop, struggling to catch a cock no bigger than his hand.Harry quietly glanced around, and only after discovering that Professor Highmore had disappeared long ago, he asked in a low voice, "Can't you really accompany us to the Forbidden Forest?"

Hagrid said regretfully: "Sorry, Harry. Toby is right. Norbert needs me. I have lost Lu Wei once. This time, I must take good care of him before Norbert leaves. He was just born, Still so weak."

Hagrid started sobbing immediately, and Harry hurriedly comforted him, pretending not to see the fine bite marks on Hagrid's fingers.

At this time, Ron suddenly shouted in horror: "Hagrid, your cabin is smoking!"

They hurried back into the wooden house, but luckily Noble only set the tablecloth ablaze before stopping the fire in time.

"Look at it." Hagrid said with tears and laughter, "It has learned how to make its mother call back, and it knows how to miss mother."

The three of Harry declined Hagrid's invitation to watch Norbert eat, and they left the cabin worriedly, but at the same time they couldn't help being a little thankful—the decision not to let Norbert stay forever was probably the wisest decision of Professor Hagrid. Gewarz should thank him for that.
