Thestral looked at the students for a few seconds—no, it was Eridins it had been looking at, and then it flicked its long black tail, without looking at the dead cow on the ground, and turned to Eridins come over.

It stopped when it was still some distance away from Eridins, as if she was surrounded by other students.

"Strange, strange." Hagrid looked at the Thestral in bewilderment, and then at Eridins, with a puzzled look on his face.

Another Thestral appeared from the forest, its eyes were only attracted by the dead cow on the ground for a second, and then fell on Eridins.

Maybe it was because the expression on Hagrid's face was too strange. Malfoy, who was the closest to Eridins and felt Hagrid's gaze the most, raised his voice displeasedly, "Don't play tricks!"

"Stupidity? No..." Hagrid hadn't finished speaking when the third Thestral appeared. He had the same reaction as the first two. He also abandoned the dead cow on the ground and stared straight at Eredins.

It wasn't just Eridins who could see them. Longbottom of Gryffindor and Nott of Slytherin both saw the Thestrals, and they also looked back and forth between Thestrals and Eridins in amazement.

"Uh... well, can anyone tell me, has anyone seen them? Raise your hand." said Hagrid, still with a puzzled look on his face.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Penn said impatiently.

"Oh...thestrals," said Hagrid, who glanced bewilderedly at the dead cow on the ground, "I was going to show you this cow, but they, um... don't seem to like it today." Meat."

"So we can only stand here in the cold wind for a class, looking at these things that don't know if they exist?" Malfoy looked ironic.

Eridins squeezed his hand: "It exists."

"What?" Malfoy looked puzzled this time.

Eridiens went out and walked towards the Thestral that was walking towards her at the beginning, and the Thestral saw Aridins pave the ground with its hoof a little excitedly, and now someone saw it, Gryffindor A girl yelled in horror: "The ground is moving!"

Aridins reached out to touch the Thestral's head, but it didn't hide, but lowered its head to make it easier for Aridens to stroke the top of its head. Hagrid couldn't close his mouth in shock.

Seeing this, the other two thestrals came over and touched Aridins' hand with their heads, as if wishing to caress.

Eridins touched them all, then gently pushed the other two Thestrals away, walked to the side of the first Thestral and patted it on the back, with a wave of her magic wand, the suit was shiny. The saddle appeared on the Thestrals.

Many people stared wide-eyed at a harness parked in mid-air.

"Wait! It's too dangerous. Without my order, they won't let others—" Before Hagrid finished speaking, Eridence stepped on the stirrups and jumped onto the Thestrals.

The Thestrals below him were quiet and there was no riot at all.

Eridins patted it on the head, then clamped its legs, and the Thestral slowly ran out into the air.

There was a sound of exclamation below, and everyone stared intently at Eridins who was riding a ball of "air" high in the sky.

Eridins rode the Thestral and returned to the ground. Originally, she was walking directly towards Malfoy, but Eridins caught Potter from the corner of her eye, so she dismounted halfway, and then faced Slytherin all the way. "You guys can come and touch it," one person wrote.

Ledger walked over first, walked towards Eridins without any doubt, and stretched out his hand tentatively. Malfoy was a step behind, and he glared at Ledger, and then walked over, with these two leading the way, Others came over one after another.

There were so many people that Eridins had to conjure up harnesses on the other two Thestrals to show that there was more than one Thestrals.

"My God, it's too thin!" Shafik couldn't help but let out a low cry as he groped the Thestral.

"It looks very strange." Zabini retracted his hand in disgust after touching it. The place he touched happened to be the face of thestrals.

"What's the use of them?" Payne raised his head from the crowd to Eridence, and the others looked at Eridence.

"As long as you tell it the place name, it can take you anywhere," Eridins wrote. "It is very fast, and it can be ranked in the top ten known flying animals."

Many people groaned and kept nodding.

Hagrid, who had been forgotten for a long time, seemed to have just remembered his duty at this moment. He coughed loudly, trying to draw the students' attention away from Eridins.

"Students! Classmates! Can anyone tell me why some people can see it and others can't?"

Granger immediately raised his hand.

"Tell me." Hagrid smiled at her.

"Thestrals are only seen by those who have seen death," Granger said, and Aridins felt Malfoy's gaze on her instantly.

"Yes," said Hagrid, "Gryffindor--"

"Cough, cough."

Here comes Professor Umbridge.Still green hat, green cloak, holding a clipboard.Hagrid, who had never heard of Umbridge's fake cough, looked at a Thestral next to him with some concern, apparently thinking it was the sound.

"Oh, hello!" Hagrid smiled, discovering the source of the strange noise.

"Did you get the note I sent to your cabin this morning?" Umbridge said slowly and loudly, as if the other party was a foreigner and mentally retarded. "Say I'm coming to your class."

"Oh, see," said Hagrid brightly. "Glad you found the place! Look - I don't know - can you see? We're talking Thestrals today -"

"I'm sorry," Professor Umbridge said loudly, cupping his hands to his ears, frowning, "what did you say?"

Hagrid looked a little puzzled.

"Er—thestrals!" he said loudly, "mass—er—winged, you know!"

He eagerly slapped his thick arms twice.Professor Umbridge raised an eyebrow at him, writing on the clipboard and saying, "It takes clumsy gestures to convey simple meaning."

Many people around Eridins laughed gloatingly, and the three of Potter looked angry.

"Okay," said Hagrid, turning to face the students, looking a bit flustered, "Uh, where did I go?"

"I seem to have a poor memory, and quickly forget what I said last," said Umbridge, in a voice so loud that everyone could hear it.

The smile on Malfoy's face was like Christmas had come early.

"Oh," Hagrid glanced uneasily at Umbridge's clipboard, but continued on. "Yes, I was just going to tell you how the herd came to be. This one, started out with just one stallion and five mares. This one is called Wuwu," he patted the one around Eredines, " My favourite, the first born in the woods—”

"Did you know," interrupted Umbridge loudly, "that the Ministry of Magic has listed thestrals as 'dangerous animals'?"

Hagrid smiled, and said nonchalantly, "Thestrals aren't dangerous! Of course, if you get really upset, they might bite you—"

"Show pleasure in cruelty," Umbridge wrote again in his notebook.

"No—no!" said Hagrid, getting a little anxious. "I mean, dogs do bite, don't they—thestrals just get a bad reputation for being associated with dead people—people used to think it was bad luck, Right? Just ignorance, right?"

Umbridge didn't answer.She made the last note, looked up at Hagrid, and said, still slowly and loudly, "Continue teaching as usual, I want to be among the students"—she pointed at each student—"walk around. ”—she pretended to be walking, and Malfoy choked back his own laughter, as if in pain.

Umbridge approached Parkinson, surrounded by the usual small group of girls.

"Oh, anyway," Hagrid tried to go on, "this—thestrals, yes, they've got a lot of good stuff."

"Do you think," Professor Umbridge asked Pansy Parkinson crisply, "that you can understand Professor Hagrid?"

Parkinson had tears in his eyes, just like Granger in the distance, but from a laugh.

"I can't... because, it sounds... a lot of times, it's like urg..." She suppressed a smile and said intermittently.

Umbridge was scribbling on the clipboard.The few remaining patches of undamaged skin on Hagrid's face turned red, but he tried to pretend he didn't hear Pansy's answer.

"Well, this, good stuff for Thestrals. By the way, when they're tamed, like this herd, you won't get lost. The sense of direction is amazing, just tell them where you want to go—"

"Nonsense, I can't believe it—" Malfoy exclaimed. "You just told us you tamed them! If you ask me, it was Eridins who tamed them!"

Many people in Slytherin agreed, and Umbridge glanced at Eridins, but said nothing.

"No - usually they don't pay attention to people, but I don't know -" said Hagrid anxiously, as Umbridge turned to Longbottom again.

"You can see thestrals, can't you, Longbottom?" she asked.

Neville nodded.

"Who did you see dead?" she asked indifferently.

"I... my grandfather," Longbottom said.

"What do you think of them?" she said, and Longbottom glanced at Hagrid and said nervously, "Well... I think... they're pretty good."

"Students dare not admit to being afraid," Umbridge read, making a few more notes on the clipboard.

"No!" said Longbottom uneasily, "I'm not afraid of them—!"

"It's okay." Umbridge patted Longbottom's shoulder, showing a understanding smile.

"Well, Hagrid," she said again in a slow, loud voice, turning to look up at him, "I think I've got enough of the situation. You'll be in ten days—" She stretched out her short Thick fingers, "Received—" She made a gesture of taking something from the air, "Your investigation results—" She pointed to the clipboard.Then, with a smug smile, the fat on her face crowded together like an ugly toad, she hurried out from among the students.

Malfoy's face was flushed with laughter, and tears glistened in his blue-gray eyes.

"I like this professor!" he said.
