gray eye to gray eye

……

Suddenly, in the open space ahead, they clearly saw something moving.

"Who's there?" Harry exclaimed.

"Oh, stupid pig!" Draco cursed under his breath.

It will be useless to hide now, and I can only face the possible danger with that silly baby...

The thing walked into the clearing at the sound—it was a human from the waist up, with red hair and a beard, but below the waist it was a shiny red-brown horse with a long red tail trailing behind it.

"The centaur!" Draco exclaimed in surprise.

"It's two little ponies, hurry up and leave the Forbidden Forest. What is Dumbledore doing to allow the ponies to come to the Forbidden Forest at night!" The centaur scratched the ground with his hind hooves a little irritable.

Then, the centaur suddenly looked around a few times, and before the two could reply, he quickly disappeared into the jungle.

Draco and Potter looked at each other for a long time before continuing to walk forward cautiously holding their wands.

"Tell me, is the movement we heard earlier also a centaur?" Harry couldn't help asking.

"Oh, do you think that sounds like a horse's hooves?" Draco said through gritted teeth.

The two continued to walk through the dense, dark woods. After walking for another half an hour, they went deeper and deeper into the forest. Later, the trees became so dense that the path was almost impassable.

The blood on the ground was getting thicker and thicker, and a lot of blood was splashed on the roots of a tree, as if the poor unicorn had writhed and struggled in pain nearby.

Harry, who was walking ahead, could see a clearing ahead through the tangled branches of an ancient oak tree.

He stopped cautiously, elbowing Draco behind him.

"Look—" Harry whispered.

Something white shone on the ground.

The two of them approached it little by little with their wands raised.

It was a unicorn, its slender legs stretched unnaturally in the same position as when it fell; its mane was spread like pearls on the black fallen leaves.

It's dead.

Harry had just taken a step closer to it when there was a sudden rustling sound.

Draco grabbed Harry, and the two stood there dumbfounded.

A bush at the edge of the clearing trembled... Then, out of the shadows, a hooded figure appeared, crawling slowly across the ground like an approaching beast.The cloaked figure approached the unicorn, lowered its head, aimed at the wound on the side of the corpse, and began to drink its blood.

The two stared dumbfounded at everything in front of them.

The hooded figure looked up and saw Harry and Draco at once - the unicorn's blood dripping on its chest.

Its eyes paused for a moment on Draco's platinum-blond hair, then it stared closely at Harry.

Under the moonlight that leaked through the tree gap, Harry's hair parted due to the slight sweat just exposed the lightning-shaped scar.

It stood up and walked quickly towards Harry - who stayed where he was, too scared to move.

"Armor protection!" Draco waved his wand in panic.

It's a pity that the magic disappeared in less than ten seconds.

Fortunately, Harry woke up from the shock and started to dodge to the side.

A beam of red light shot towards the sky, but it was Draco who took advantage of the gap that the monster was attracted by Harry and sent the signal.

As if enraged, the monster turned around and looked at Draco.

The monster was wrapped in a cloak all over, but Draco seemed to be able to see the vicious gaze clearly, and stepped back several times in shock.

Harry on the opposite side seemed to have suffered some great pain, staggered back a few steps, crouched down with his head in his arms...

When Draco woke up again, the first thing he saw was the white roof of the hospital wing.

"Oh, Mr. Malfoy, great, you're awake!" Dumbledore approached with a smile.

"Not at all, Dumbledore, this kid needs to rest, get out of the way, I'm going to check him again!" Madam Pomfrey came over with a tray and pushed Dumbledore aside.

The Queen of Hogwarts drew out her wand and quickly pointed it at Draco.

At this time, Harry, who was lying on the other side, also groaned a few times.

"Oh, oh, Harry is awake too!" Dumbledore smiled and moved closer.

"Honey, take a good rest, Mr. and Mrs. Big Malfoy, as well as your friends, will come to see you soon!" Madam Pomfrey confessed.

After all, Madam Pomfrey drove Dumbledore away from Harry's bed again, and checked Harry...

Professor Snape and the Malfoys were quick to hear the news, rushing over through the fireplace in the head Slytherin's office.

"Honey, let mom see, do you still feel uncomfortable? Does it hurt..." Narcissa was so excited that she even forgot the etiquette of the nobility, pushed the door and ran in, hugged Draco and looked left and right look.

"Mom...Father, Professor!" Draco avoided embarrassingly, and when he saw the two people coming in from behind, he sat up suddenly.

"Mr. Malfoy, Mrs. Malfoy, Sev, hello!" Dumbledore greeted with squinted eyes.

"Hmph!" Severus snorted a monosyllable coldly.

Lucius and Narcissa ignored Dumbledore at all.

The crazy principal, smiling indifferently, followed the three of them to Draco's hospital bed.

"I'm fine, Mom!" Draco broke free from Narcissa's arms and straightened his hospital gown.

"You'd better lie back obediently, little Mr. Malfoy, do you think the Cruciatus Curse is a joke!" Professor Snape said sullenly.

"Listen to Sev, Draco!" Lucius said in a drawn out tone.

Draco responded, and lay back obediently...

"Okay, little Mr. Malfoy still needs to rest, visiting time is up!"

Just five minutes later, Madam Pomfrey started to chase people away, waving her arms.

"Dumbledore, you go back too. Mr. Potter is the same as Mr. Malfoy. What they need most is rest!"

When Draco and Harry were brought out of the Forbidden Forest by Hagrid and sent to the medical wing, Madam Pomfrey made a big fuss, even the cheeky Dumbledore couldn't stand it, and found A chance to run away in a hurry.

"Dumbledore, are your brains covered in sugar juice? How dare you let a careless fellow like Hagrid take the students to the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night! You know something is wrong in the Forbidden Forest..."

When we finished dinner and came to the medical wing, the Malfoys had already left.

Harry looked at Draco with a lonely face surrounded by water, and quietly pulled up the quilt to cover his face.

"Draco, we brought you some food from the dining table. Madam Pomfrey said you can already eat these!" Pansy opened the lunch box and handed it to Draco.

"What do you think?" Daphne asked gently.

"I don't feel any pain anymore." Draco replied a little sluggishly.

"Hey, buddy, how's it going in the Forbidden Forest?" Blaise asked, winking.

I helped Draco back up the pillow so that Draco could be more comfortable, and was about to express my concern when there was a loud noise outside the door of the medical wing.

"Harry, Harry, we're coming to see you!"

Weasley's voice came from the corridor.

Harry next to him sat up happily.

Then, the medical wing became like a vegetable market.

Gryffindor had more than a dozen classmates, including Ron, Hermione, the Weasley twins and so on.

"Harry, I heard you knocked down the thing that killed the unicorn, didn't you?" the chubby Neville asked with a look of admiration.

"How about the Forbidden Forest, buddy?" the twins asked excitedly, "We have been yearning for the Forbidden Forest for a long time!"

"Oh, shut up, the Forbidden Forest is not a fun place..." Percy Weasley, the prefect of Gryffindor, scolded.

……

In short, if we wanted to talk, we had to shout.

Of course, how could the Slytherins do that.

We can just shut up and watch Draco eat.

"Oh, be quiet, keep quiet in the medical wing!" Madam Pomfrey rushed over and shouted, "Otherwise, go out..."

As a result, after 3 minutes, even we were kicked out.

"Hmph, a bunch of rude and uneducated guys!" Pansy said angrily.

"What did you say?" Ron asked angrily, jumping up.

"If you don't make a lot of noise, we won't be kicked out!" Daphne raised her voice and said.

"Okay, don't worry about them, let's go back quickly, and help Draco copy the notes tonight!" I persuaded a little speechlessly, "Pansy, which one do you want to copy?"

Blaise obviously didn't think it was a good thing to have a conflict with a large group of Gryffindors with seniors, so he pulled Daphne away...

Draco stayed in the medical wing for three days before coming out.

"...we found the dead unicorn, and then, the monster came out, and I sent the signal...that silly baby Potter was terrified...to be honest, I'm still not sure what the thing is Is it a wizard, but it has a wand and can do magic... I should have brought a few more defensive props if I knew it, the speed of that monster's magic is amazing..." Draco leaned on the sofa, lazily talking about what happened in the Forbidden Forest.

I sat at the farthest place from Draco guiltily. Yes, the protagonist will certainly not die, but there are often more waves around the protagonist. Maybe, if I hadn’t talked too much at the beginning, Draco might not have died. Will be with Potter...

"...Oh, you are in a daze again!"

Draco's voice suddenly raised, and his big round eyes looked bigger than usual because of anger!
