Albert looked up, and through the white light of the tip of his wand, he could vaguely see Professor McGonagall walking briskly in this direction, and the person behind the professor was ...... Their roommate, Lee Jordan, and...... Headmaster Dumbledore.

The old man was looking at the three of them with a smile.

"It's great that you've found them, Bard!" Professor McGonagall breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes falling on Albert, Fred, and George, as if to check on her students for injuries.

"It should be said...... It was Mr. Anderson who found the two Weasleys. Professor Broad explained with a smile, "By the time I arrived, Mr. Anderson had already rescued Mr. Weasley from a large colony of eight-eyed spiders trapped in the Yamanashi Tree (Guardian Tree). ”

"Sorry you said a bunch of ...... What?" Professor McGonagall's voice couldn't help but raise a few points, as if she couldn't believe what she had just heard.

"Eight-eyed spider, Minerva. Professor Broad looked sideways at Dumbledore, "There should be a nest of eight-eyed spiders in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, these monsters have few natural predators, and have already multiplied into a large colony. ”

"I see. Dumbledore looked at Albert curiously and smiled, "However, I'm more curious about how Mr. Anderson found Mr. Weasley, and how he dispersed the eight-eyed spiders, which I know are not something that an ordinary freshman can deal with." ”

Albert looked at Lee Jordan and skillfully staggered Dumbledore's gaze, even if Dumbledore didn't use the Guardian Mind, but he was an expert in this area, as long as the eyes of the two sides met, it would be difficult for Albert to lie in front of Dumbledore.

"Yes, I'm curious about that. "But I think it's imperative that we take them to the hospital first, and we came back with a portkey, and they're still ...... Faint door key. ”

"You're right, Bud. Professor McGonagall nodded, staring at the trio sternly, "Come with me!"

"Come and help me help Fred. Albert ignored Professor McGonagall's stern gaze and said to Li Jordan that he himself was too tired to support others.

"Oh, by the way, and this dog, which seems to be Hagrid's pet, and Albert seems to have relied on it to find Mr. Weasley. Professor Broad pointed to the tooth at his foot and said, "However, it doesn't seem to be able to adapt to apparitions." ”

"Don't worry, I've informed Hagrid that he'll be back soon. Dumbledore said mildly.

For a moment, he seemed to notice something, turned his head to look in a certain direction, and said with a smile, "Look, Hagrid has returned." ”

Yes, Hagrid had returned, from the direction of Hogsmeade with an oil lamp, he had drunk a little high, and he smelled of alcohol on his body, and he strode towards this direction.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall...... Professor Broad?" Hagrid hiccuped and greeted the three professors, then his eyes fell on Albert and the others, relieved to see that they were okay.

"It's great that they're okay, these little ones always like to sneak into the woods themselves when I'm not looking. ”

"Alright, Hagrid......"

Dumbledore spoke to Hagrid about the situation, and the hunting ground keeper said he would take good care of his pet.

Everyone said goodbye to Hagrid and soon arrived at the school hospital.

The third watch was woken up in the middle of the night, and Madam Pomfrey's temper was not very good, but she still dutifully treated the three of them.

"It's no big deal, the two Weasleys just don't get used to the portkey, and they haven't recovered from the faint key. As for Mr. Anderson, he's just too tired to get a good night's sleep. Madam Pomfrey examined the three and gave a diagnosis.

"They need to rest and be fully recovered by the day after tomorrow at the latest. ”

Now, the head nurse is ready to chase people away.

Unfortunately, even Madam Pomfrey didn't have a good idea of the faint key, as long as she had a day or two of rest to recuperate.

"Poppy, we need to figure out the cause and effect, it only takes a few minutes. Professor McGonagall spoke.

"For a maximum of five minutes, the patient needs to rest. Madam Pomfrey frowned and gave Albert a piece of chocolate.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Professor McGonagall asked, softening a bit, staring at the three of them.

Albert briefly explained the situation, and when he went back to his dormitory to rest, he found that Fred and George had not returned.

Later, I learned from Lee Jordan that the two may have entered the woods, but they have not yet returned.

Then, Albert recounted that he had determined through the owl that the two were indeed still in the Forbidden Forest, and that he was going to seek Hagrid's help. In the end, because Hagrid was not there, he had to go into the forest to find someone on his own, and then let Lee Jordan return to the castle to ask the professor for help.

"You've broken a lot of school rules along the way, but how did you find the two Mr. Weasleys, and how did you get out of here?" Professor McGonagall couldn't help but ask, "What about the group of eight-eyed spiders that Professor Broad mentioned?" ”

"At first, I thought Fred and George were just lost, and it's easy to get lost in a place like the Forbidden Forest where no one leads the way. Albert continued to recount his experiences along the way, and later said that he had met the centaur and that with the help of a centaur man, he had found the direction of the red spark.

"The red spark is what Albert wrote to remind us. Fred pulled out Albert's handkerchief, which read: "Shoot red sparks into the sky, if you have any problems, you can ask the centaurs for help, and they will send you out of the forest."

"Actually, the centaurs aren't that friendly. Albert laughed to himself, "But the centaurs say they never attack foals, I think I mean they don't attack students." Later, I said I was a friend of Hagrid, and I negotiated with the centaurs to convince them to lead me in the direction of the red sparks, and later met the big spider.

Dumbledore nodded, he knew the centaurs of the Forbidden Forest.

"How the hell did you defeat the Eight-Eyed Spider?" Professor Broad asked the most curious question ever.

"Because of Tooth's warning, I wasn't attacked by the eight-eyed giant spider, but the obstacle spell and the stun spell had no effect on those big spiders. "Then I tried to use a dance step charm on its feet to limit its mobility, and it was a successful attempt. ”

"Whimsy, your defense against the Dark Arts is excellent, and I'm so proud of you. Professor Broad nodded.

"Later, when I calmed down, I remembered the Spider Retreat Charm I had seen by chance in the library. Albert sighed, "I didn't expect this spell to work wonders for those big spiders. ”

Albert slowly recounted tonight's story, and finally said that he relied on the Dharma Protector Tree to overturn most of the eight-eyed giant spiders that surrounded him......

"It's incredible. Professor McGonagall had already seen the courage and wisdom of the new student in Albert's account, whether it was his courage or ability to find the twins through an owl and a hound, or his courage and ability to face the centaurs and the eight-eyed spider, even if it was to enter the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night.

"Okay, I know the situation. Professor McGonagall gave the final verdict, "Mr. Weasley, you have seriously violated the school rules, with a hundred points deducted for each of you, and a week of confinement. ”

Fred and George both whined, and Lee Jordan next to him was also taken aback, 100 points each, and Gryffindor's few points basically bottomed out.

"As for Mr. Anderson. Professor McGonagall hesitated, as if considering what to do with Albert.

In the end, it was Dumbledore who spoke, "Mr. Anderson showed extraordinary courage and wisdom in the process, saving the lives of two Weasley Gentlemen, I think it was enough for you to receive a special contribution to the school, and - let me think about it - by the way, you earned two hundred points for Gryffindor." ”

Both Fred and George breathed a sigh of relief, which was kind of offsetting the points they had deducted. However, when I remembered that I was going to be confined, I was immediately forced to do so.

"By the way, one more thing. Mr. Anderson was in the Forbidden Forest to save me from being badly injured by the Eight-Eyed Spider," Professor Broad said with a smile, "I think that's enough to earn Gryffindor 50 points." ”

"Alright, let's go first! I think it's time for them to get some rest. Dumbledore turned to leave.

"One more thing. Professor McGonagall said suddenly.

"What's the matter, Minerva?" Dumbledore asked.

"What are you doing in the woods?" Professor McGonagall glared at the twin brothers sternly.

Under such menacing coercion, the twins confessed everything.

"Where's the map?" asked Professor McGonagall.

"I threw that map in the Forbidden Forest. Albert began, "lest they get their brains pumped and run into the woods to die." ”

"Okay, can I take care of my patient?" Madam Pomfrey walked over and brought sleeping potions to the three of them.

"Drink it, it will give you a good night's sleep. ”

Albert could guess what it was.

A serving of water of life and death

Under Madam Pomfrey's watchful eye, Albert drank the potion. The effect of the potion was immediate, and he felt his eyelids heavy, and he closed his eyes irresistibly, and Albert was enveloped in a dreamless sleep.

......

"Alright, you should go back to the dormitory and rest!" Professor McGonagall said to Lee Jordan outside the school hospital, "You are very sensible in your approach, and you will earn 10 points for Gryffindor." ”

After Lee Jordan left, Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall looked at Professor Broad in unison.

"Mr. Anderson is basically right. However, I was also shocked that he was able to find Mr. Weasley. Professor Broad exclaimed: "He is undoubtedly a brilliant genius. By the way, there's something I want to tell you. ”

"What's the matter?"

"I feel like I should quit early, this position is really bad luck and misfortune. Professor Broad smiled wryly, "Before the curse hurts me, it's a wise choice to resign early. ”

"What did Mr. Weasley say about Gryffindor's secret treasure?" Professor McGonagall frowned at the sudden mention of the map.

"There have been similar legends, but that's not certain, you know, legends aren't necessarily reliable, although they may have some historical basis. ”

"I've heard similar legends. "Some claim that the Big Four have each left their own secret treasure in Hogwarts, containing priceless treasures, possibly gold, prophecies, and other powerful magical items. ”

"There are legends in Hogwarts Castle, but legends are just legends, and no one has ever found the so-called secret treasure. Dumbledore whispered.

The three of them were silent, they all had their own judgment, and naturally they would not easily believe the so-called legends.

Yes, legends are just legends, like Hogwarts once had legends about the Chamber of Secrets, but no one found the Chamber of Secrets left behind by Slytherin.
