"...Hermione, I am really grateful for your willingness to help me find Demi. But you must make sure to go back an hour before the lights go out."

"Although it doesn't look decent, I am also a professor now. I must be responsible for your studies and life at school!"

In the forbidden forest, Hagrid carried an old hunting crossbow in his hand, and had an arrow pocket sewn with leather in his waist.

In the past, he was forbidden to use any spells, so unless he really needed it, he rarely used magic.

By now, the Ministry of Magic would definitely not take care of such nostalgia, but he was already used to not relying on the magic wand hidden in the umbrella.

But for Maca to speak, in fact, with Hagrid's magical talent, he was afraid of punching before he was undecided.

"Hagrid, we all understand." Hermione held her wand and walked behind Hagrid, blocking a few branches in front of her. "Then Harry and I will go from here. If anything happens, We will send out the signal."

"Ok."

Hearing this, Hagrid couldn't help but look back at the children.

I have to say that all the little things that year have grown up.If only talking about magical power, he, a professor who is actually not very competent, may already be incomparable.

"Be careful."

When the four of them passed the fork of a forest path, Hermione and the other three turned a bend and walked slowly in the other direction.On Hagrid's side, as usual, he was gradually submerged in the darkness of the Forbidden Forest with hounds.

To be honest, the vegetation of the forbidden forest has become more and more luxuriant during the recent period, and the dense canopy of the trees has completely isolated the afterglow of the setting sun from the outside world.

"Fluorescence flickers."

Hermione waved her magic wand very skillfully, and a ball of light immediately provided the three with plenty of vision-in the dim and gloomy environment, light always brought everyone warmth and hope.

"Hermione, we just vowed to find the invisible beast for Hagrid." Ron whispered from the side, "how exactly should I find it?"

"I can only say, I am not sure."

It was really rare for Hermione to say such a thing.

Not to mention the entire Hogwarts, at least half of the teachers and students at Hogwarts knew that she could answer almost every question during class, and it was no wonder that Snape would give her the title of "Miss Know-it-all".

"what?"

Harry and Ron were obviously surprised at this, because it was so rare.

"I really can't tell," Hermione pursed her lips, and said angeredly. "In "Monsters and Their Origin", the description of invisible beasts is still very detailed, but because of this..."

Although she seemed to be complaining about something, she quickly choked off the meaningless words and continued on with the previous words.

"It's mentioned in the book," she said. "This magical animal not only hides its body, but also has a certain degree of prediction of the short-term future-can you understand what this means? This means Well, if it really wants to escape or hide, everyone...no, I mean, most people will never find it again!"

When Harry heard this, he couldn't help scratching his messy hair habitually.

"Then what are we doing? According to you, we can't find it anymore, right?"

"That's why we need to help Hagrid even more," Hermione said, looking at Harry and Ron seriously. "Hagrid's cherishment of magical creatures, don't I need to say more? Think about the original Buckbeak , This time is the same."

"What's more, according to my guess, the invisible beast was mostly where Hagrid borrowed it from."

Hagrid once bought a fire dragon egg at the pig's head bar, and it was already a very difficult thing to get.And now, a living invisible beast-the entire British magic world may not be able to find a few!

"Uh,

"Anyway, try to find where there are trees like berries!" Hermione thought for a while. "Anyway, it always has to eat, and berries are generally one of their most common foods."

While speaking in a low voice, the feet of the three of them did not stop.Soon, they have reached a deeper position in the forbidden forest.

But for now, they still walk along the only trail on the ground.

The first half of this path was basically stepped out by Hogwarts hunting field watchers; and since this dirt path gradually became wider, it has been the route of the horse people since ancient times.

More than ten minutes passed, and the Hermione trio moved forward, not forgetting to keep an eye on everything around them.It's a pity that they didn't notice any abnormalities except for some small animals that seemed to move quickly.

No, it's better to say, even if they hear something, it's too late for them to check.

And when the three of them pushed a few bushes on the dirt path again and tried to move on, a small open space made them subconsciously stop.

"what is that?"

It can be seen that in the darkness ahead, there seems to be the outline of an unknown building.Although the shadowy outline is not very clear in the dark, it is actually easy to see, like a "ruin".

Regarding the building that exists in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, all three of them showed an expression of no bottom.

"I remember Professor Dumbledore always saying that students should not enter and leave the Forbidden Forest at will..." Ron muttered in a small voice, "I think we should look for it on the road just now?"

In fact, sometimes timidity is not a big problem-if you don't approach the unknown at will, even if you may miss an opportunity, you will usually get a corresponding peace.

But, who made three Gryffindors in total here?

"Who knows what that is?" Harry craned his neck and looked around, then waved his hand. "If you want to know, the fastest way is to go and see!"

"Slow down." Seeing Harry, Hermione wanted to walk straight over, and immediately reached out and grabbed his clothes. "You must see it, but you have to be more cautious—"

As she spoke, she shook the wand in her hand again.

"maximize!"

Before the words fell, the ball of light hanging on the tip of the wand suddenly burst into a dazzling light, and then Hermione swung her arm to throw it out.

When the group of brilliance crossed a parabola and fell far into the shadow of the building, a medium-sized semi-formed building immediately caught the eyes of the three.

What kind of ruins is this, it is obviously a new building under construction!

However, the attention of Hermione and the others was quickly attracted by another thing in the "construction site"-it was an unfancy stone pillar with a circle of ropes tied at the bottom of the pillar. , As if something was firmly tied to that stone pillar.

And just around the stone pillar, a few elves were dozing off against some piles of stone bricks.

"House elves?" Harry said strangely, "How come there are house elves here? Where do they come from? Is the school kitchen?"

Harry was obviously puzzled by this, and Ron was probably the same, but Hermione reacted quickly.

"That's not a'domestic' elves," she said solemnly, "they are free elves--a group of real elves!"

"What?" Harry wondered. "What do you mean?"

Of course he didn't understand Hermione's words, but it was useless to just understand, because he didn't know the origins of those little elves.

"I mean, they brought Maca back from outside," Hermione explained softly, "understand? Wild... No, it's not good to say that, it should be said that they have lived independently for many years.' Normal'elf."

Having said that, she waved her hand and told Harry and the others to go back to the station.

"You stay here first, I'll see the situation." Hermione still lowered her voice, "They should know me, but they may not know you..."

Of course, what they have in common is that, including Hermione, they actually can't communicate with the elves smoothly.

After leaving the warning, Hermione raised her leg and continued to walk there.As she gradually approached there, the situation on this "elf construction site" also appeared in her eyes.

Except for the few little elves around the stone pillars, there are no other companions here.This is also natural, because before the building is completely completed, the elves have to return to the castle at night.

On the island of Rowena, they had always lived in the basement of the tower, and they had long developed the habit of sleeping indoors.

The elves in front of Hermione were just staying here.

When Hermione finally reached the stone pillar, she did not choose to wake up the elf, but carefully looked at the surrounding situation first.

Huh?

When she discovered the peculiar state of the rope on the stone pillar, she couldn't help but hesitate secretly in her heart.

Maybe it was because Hermione's original purpose was to find invisible beasts, or she was always good at thinking, but after blinking a few eyes, she quickly realized something.

"Could it be that……"

Hermione guessed silently, and prodded her wand toward the place where the stone pillar was bound.

However, without her being so cautiously probing, in the next moment, a gray figure automatically appeared there.Look at the "hairy apes" with only human legs tall, what else can they be if they are not invisible beasts?

"It... why is it..."

While Hermione was still stunned, there was a hint of darkness passing through those brown eyes.()
