Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 38 Discovery in the Forbidden Forest (2)

"Both girls, please follow me!" Hagrid said. He was worried that Nitya would be frightened by seeing something again, so he thought it would be safer to take her with him. "Harry, go with Malfoy! It's safer for two boys."

After the groups were re-adjusted, Harry and Draco set off in another direction, while Nydia and Hermione followed Hagrid and continued to explore the traces of silver blood in the forest.

The moon has risen higher and higher, and the forest seems to be quieter than when they first came in. Even the chirping of insects is gone, and the only sound that can be heard is the clicking sound of their feet on the dead leaves. They had been searching in the forest for a long time, but found nothing.

"It seems there won't be any results tonight." Hagrid sighed, "Send a signal to Harry and the others! Let them come back."

Nidia took out her wand, and just when she was about to recite the spell, a terrifying scream sounded in the originally quiet forest.

"It's Draco, something happened to them!" Nydia was a little panicked. They didn't send out a red signal for help, but screamed directly, which meant that the situation was very dangerous.

"Let's get there quickly."

Hagrid immediately took off the stone bow on his back and ran towards the direction of the cry. Nydia and Hermione followed closely behind.

Nitya was worried and scared now. She was worried whether they had really encountered the creature that harmed the unicorn, and whether their current situation was very dangerous. She was afraid that if it was really that creature, she and Hermione could help her in the past. What are you busy with? Could Hagrid really be able to deal with that creature? But no matter how scared she was, her progress did not slow down at all, she just hoped to find the two of them as soon as possible.

Just as they were getting closer and closer to the location where the cry came from, a figure ran quickly in front of them, and behind him was a creature, which was also running quickly towards the outskirts of the forest.

"It's Draco and Fang!" Nidia used the moonlight to recognize the people running past.

"Come back!" Hagrid shouted loudly, but Draco and Fang didn't listen to him and continued to run wildly. "Useless things."

Nydia didn't know whether Hagrid's last words were about Draco or Fang. Nydia had stopped walking, but Hagrid was still heading in the previous direction because Harry did not run with Draco. Coming out meant that he was entangled in something. Nydia was hesitant. She didn't know whether to chase Draco or continue to look for Harry.

"Nydia, go see how that kid Malfoy is doing! We can't let him run around in the forest like this. Hermione and I will go find Harry." Hagrid turned around and saw Nydia who had stopped. , seemed to see her confusion.

After receiving Hagrid's instructions, Nydia immediately turned around and chased Draco's figure. She followed Draco's running direction closely, but she didn't dare to shout loudly because she was worried that the shout would cause unnecessary trouble for her. God knows what unknown dangerous creatures there were in the forest. After chasing him to the edge of the entrance to the Forbidden Forest, Draco slowly stopped, and Fang had already run straight back to Hagrid's cabin.

"Draco, how are you?" Nydia anxiously chased him and asked about his situation.

Nitya's voice startled Draco again, and he was about to run away again. He stopped when he turned around and saw Nitya coming over. His originally pale face now couldn't even be seen. There was a trace of blood, and his eyes were filled with fear.

"What happened? Draco, are you injured?" Nydia walked up to Draco and looked him up and down. Fortunately, there were no traces of wounds. It seemed that she was just frightened.

"It's... unicorn... blood..." Draco gasped and said intermittently.

"What?" Nydia couldn't understand what Draco was saying, "Let's go to Hagrid's hut first!" Nydia grabbed Draco's hand and led him towards the hut.

When Nydia touched Draco's hand, she realized that he was now terribly cold. Nydia sat Draco down by the fire and poured him a cup of hot tea. Draco took a few sips of the hot tea, and after his mood calmed down a bit, he slowly said, "We met the person who hurt the unicorn, and he was drinking the blood of the unicorn."

"You mean it was a person who hurt the unicorn?" An uneasy feeling arose in Nidia's heart.

"Probably, it was too dark. He was covered with a hood, but his figure should be correct. I didn't see his appearance. I only saw him lying on the unicorn's wound and drinking from it. Blood." That scene must have been very scary, because Draco couldn't help but tremble when he thought about it.

"What about Harry? How is he? Why are you the only one running out?" Nidia began to worry about Harry, and she didn't know if Hagrid had found him.

"I don't know, it was too scary. I ran away without thinking. He seemed to be still there in a daze!" Draco shook his head.

Nidia walked to the door of the cabin uneasily and looked into the Forbidden Forest. She hoped to see a little light and to see Hagrid bring Harry back safely.

"Nydia, please don't go to the Forbidden Forest again." Draco saw Nydia walking toward the door, thinking that she wanted to go back to find them again. "It's just too dangerous out there,"

"I..." Just when Nydia was about to tell Draco that she didn't mean that, Yaya, who had been huddled in the house, suddenly stood up and ran towards the door. Yaya stared closely at the direction of the Forbidden Forest, and then it began to bark towards the Forbidden Forest. It looked a little anxious and wanted to run towards the Forbidden Forest, but only reached the edge and backed away in fear. Nidia also looked in the direction Yaya was looking at, but she didn't see anything. But slowly, a little light appeared in that direction, which was the light from a portable lamp, and then there appeared the figures of three people. Figure!

"They are back, Hagrid has found Harry." Nydia said to Draco excitedly, and then quickly ran in the direction of them.

"Harry, are you okay?" Nydia ran to Harry and looked at him carefully. His robe was stained with some mud and dirty, but there was no sign of damage.

"I'm fine, I fell down. A centaur saved me." Harry tried his best to smile at Nydia to reassure her, but Nydia still saw that Harry was hiding something.

"Centaurs? I didn't know there were centaurs living in the Forbidden Forest." Since Harry didn't want to talk about it now, there must be a reason.

"Yes, his name is Firenze." Harry answered simply and said no more.

At this time, Draco also walked out of the wooden house. He looked at Harry up and down and said, "You're lucky!"

"You can't die!" Harry seemed to be angry that Draco left him and ran away. The two looked at each other and stopped talking.

"Okay, you all go back! I will report what happened tonight to the principal. That's it for tonight! Your confinement is over." Hagrid took hold of Yaya's traction rope, "I We have to go back and bury the unicorn’s body properly.”

After saying that, Hagrid picked up the shovel and walked towards the Forbidden Forest again. Yaya looked a little reluctant, but Hagrid had no intention of letting go of the leash, so he could only follow obediently.

The four of them walked towards the school castle together. It was extremely quiet all the way, no one spoke, until Draco said goodbye to Nydia after entering the castle, because the Slytherin common room was in the basement.
