Parents of Hogwarts

In the dim Forbidden Forest, the sunlight was blocked by dense trees.

On the ground, only the sparks from the tip of the ash wand served as a light source, and the only thing left was the silver fur that seemed to be shining.

Karan did not put down his wand, still holding it forward.

Steve looked at him with a flustered expression.

The atmosphere was a little stagnant for a while.

"Roar"

At this time, Yue Lang let out a low growl that sounded like a threat, and his body arched slightly.

Gaspard reached out and grabbed Steve to prevent him from suddenly running out again.

He broke the silence and said: "If you want to take action, hurry up. I think this moon wolf won't be able to bear it for long."

It seems that Gaspard has already tacitly agreed to side with Karan.

Compared with this unknown moon wolf, after all, the safety of the three of them is most important.

But Steve's expression suddenly froze.

"Wow, woof."

He suddenly lifted the invisibility cloak in front of him again, shouted twice, and put his body in a weird posture.

Moon Wolf shook its head and roared again: "Roar..."

Steve put one palm behind his body and rocked it up and down twice.

"Woof, woof." He shouted again.

Karan and Steve looked at each other strangely.

"You...are you talking to it?" Gaspard looked at Steve up and down with an inquiring expression.

"Well, I can't quite understand it. After all, I don't have a magical animal like a moon wolf at home."

Steve still maintained that weird posture, leaning forward slightly.

"I'm imitating a swallow-tailed dog, woof, woof."

He called twice more.

Karan blinked. He thought of Steve's ability to communicate with magical animals, and decided to wait and see what happened and let his diplomats finish the conversation.

Gaspard, on the other hand, took out a notebook from somewhere. He looked at one person and one wolf from left to right. His strange eyes made them feel terrified. Even the moon wolf couldn't help but move a few steps to his side.

"His name is Wolf."

After "barking" for a while, Steve already called the moon wolf "him".

"He said that he had never hurt Larry. In fact, they knew each other originally. After all, they both lived in the Forbidden Forest."

Steve explained, looking at Karan with a sincere expression.

"Are you sure?" Karan asked Steve, staring closely at Wolf.

"certainly"

As if he was afraid that Karan wouldn't believe it, Steve quickly said: "I can even understand what Balian said, and the intelligence of Mao Zizi and Moon Wolf is not low. Apart from being a little unfamiliar, it is impossible for me to listen." Incorrect."

"But..." His expression suddenly became hesitant.

"But what?" Karan asked warily, gripping the wand in his hand tighter.

"But he also asked, why don't we escape?"

Steve finally said: "And forget it, he is still asking us how we still have the courage to continue to catch up. Usually, there are very few students who break the rules like us."

"What does this mean?" Karan asked doubtfully. The development of the matter was somewhat beyond his expectation.

"Um...I didn't fully understand. It seems that he usually scares us students who break into the forbidden forest to drive us out. Like you, you don't turn around and run away, but you still There are not many students who would dare to point a wand at him," Steve said.

"Is there such a thing?" Karan asked in surprise.

Steve smiled and nodded. He looked quite embarrassed. After all, he was the one who just asked to catch up.

Wolf, the moon wolf, seemed to have relaxed his vigilance at this time. He rubbed the side of his face with his front paws and growled a few more casually.

"What did he say again?" Gaspard asked with interest.

"He seems to be telling us to leave the Forbidden Forest quickly. This is not the place we should be." Steve said with a weird look on his face. The three of them seemed to have been taught a lesson by a moon wolf.

"You can put your wand down now."

After Steve begged again, Karan finally put down the wand.

This moon wolf really didn't look aggressive. After it found that it couldn't scare the three of them, it even started to stretch its body.

And when it comes to magical beasts, Steve indeed knows the most among the three.

"Then what should we do next?"

Karan asked, he found that Steve's abduction plan seemed not to go so smoothly, and the moon wolf did not look as miserable as he said, but had completely adapted to life in the Forbidden Forest.

"Forehead......"

Steve hesitated for a while, and then shouted at Wolf twice.

After Wolf responded, Steve looked disappointed.

"He has no plans to leave the Forbidden Forest for the time being, and he repeatedly told us to leave quickly."

He said helplessly: "Yue Lang's wisdom is really too high..."

Steve said as he stepped out of the invisibility cloak, but this time the two of them did not stop him.

After walking in front of Wolf, Steve rubbed the thick fur on its back without any hesitation. Wolf showed a satisfied expression on his face, and he also moved his body to make himself more comfortable. .

"Do you want to try it too?"

Steve turned around and asked: "Wolf is still very friendly and will not attack us."

After silently looking at each other, the two immediately stepped forward impatiently.

Karan lowered his head and looked at the moon wolf carefully. He tentatively touched it with his palm and found that its fur did not feel rough at all, but was as smooth as flowing liquid.

Wolf simply lay down on his side and let out a comfortable purr.

"correct."

After enjoying themselves, Karan suddenly asked: "Does he know about the anomalies in the Forbidden Forest?"

Steve immediately communicated with Wolf in a low voice, and then he shook his head and said: "He can feel the change in the atmosphere in the Forbidden Forest, but he doesn't know what the reason is, or even who the murderer who attacked Larry is. have no idea."

Karan could only nod helplessly.

"How many moon wolves are there in the Forbidden Forest?" Gespard asked from the side.

"There is only one Wolf." Steve said: "He should have come to the Forbidden Forest when he was very young. It seems that the Winged Demon I brought is useless."

Although he said this, there was no disappointment on Steve's face, but instead he was just happy.

He was still communicating with Wolf in a low voice, and it seemed that he hadn't given up completely yet.

Gespard began to observe the surrounding environment. This was the first time they had gone so deep into the Forbidden Forest.

Karan rubbed Wolf's back back and forth, squinting and thinking about something.

After a short while, Wolf stood up again. He rubbed his head against the hanging hands of the three people, and then turned around and ran away deeper into the Forbidden Forest.

"Let's go too."

Karan suggested. He patted the unhappy Steve on the shoulder and used the invisibility cloak to cover the three of them again.

"There is still a chance."

On the way back, Steve muttered in a low voice: "I'm going to stay at Hogwarts for seven years, so there will definitely be a chance to sneak Wolf away."

"The prerequisite is that you can successfully pass the exam."

Gaspard said expressionlessly: "Instead of being forced to drop out of school like Mr. Newt."

"My dad didn't drop out of school because of exams."

After retorting in a low voice, Steve asked with some suspicion: "Will poor students be forced to leave Hogwarts?"

"That's not true." Karan replied from the side: "It will just make you repeat the grade and stay in Hogwarts for a few more years."

Steve immediately fell into thinking. He seemed to be really considering this possibility.

"No," Karan immediately looked at him strangely, while Steve hummed and said nothing.

The three of them left the woods where they had chased Wolf into in the middle of the noise.

When they came out of it, they were all stunned.

In front of the three of them, in the open space where Larry had been found, another figure suddenly appeared inexplicably.

It's Andromeda Black.

She was lying on her back on the ground, just like Larry back then, with her eyes closed tightly, as if she didn't know whether she was alive or dead.

"It seems that at least Wolf has really eliminated all doubts."

Karan whispered, but no one answered.

Steve's eyes were already full of panic, and even Gaspard had a serious look on his face.

"Ugh."

Karan sighed helplessly, stretched out the ash wand in his hand from the invisibility cloak, and pointed it at the sky.

"Vomelius."

A red spark shot out from the tip of the wand. Even in the daytime, the light that symbolized the emergency signal was so dazzling, indicating danger and the deep uneasiness in the Forbidden Forest.
