324. Before the execution begins

The time soon came the day before the Christmas holiday, which was the day of the execution.

After lunch, Harry approached Scott again to talk about it.

"Hagrid wrote to me." He said, holding a piece of paper.

Scott glanced at the tear-stained letter in his hand and saw that the letterwriting was blurred.

[I've been informed by the Magical Beasts Control Board that they are preparing to execute Buckbeak as the sun goes down.] You can't help anything, so don't come. I don't want you to see a cruel scene. ]

"It's time to act." Scott said, as he gave Eddie a look to his side.

"Leave it to me." Eddie smiled confidently and turned to leave.

Scott said to Harry, "Wait for Eddie to get the news to Slytherin, and then it's up to you." As we agreed, provoke little Malfoy and make him have to watch the execution. ”

"No problem." Harry smiled, "I'm good at it. ”

"I think so." Scott laughed too.

After Harry left, Roger asked Scott curiously, "Do you really want to be involved in this?" Or even asked Eddie to help? ”

"Don't worry, I'm just moving my mouth." Scott said, "Dumbledore will be there then." ”

Roger immediately understood what Scott meant, he patted Scott's shoulder and said with a smile: "It's worthy of you, it's really cunning." ”

He lowered his voice, "You promised them, but with Dumbledore present, it's not your turn to intervene." ”

Scott smiled slightly, but didn't speak.

That's exactly what he intended.

It's okay to come up with ideas, and it's okay to watch, but he won't play.

Knowing that Dumbledore was there, he didn't have to worry about what would happen to Harry and Hermione, who were in charge of the operation.

After the afternoon lesson, Scott and his roommates walked out of the castle to Hagrid's hut on the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

"Are you alright?"

Scott asked Milton, who was a little pale.

Milton shook his head, pursed his lips and said nothing.

He chose to watch the execution, so Scott didn't say anything more.

They soon reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest, some distance from Hagrid's hut, where three distinct groups of people had gathered.

First of all, Harry, Ron, Hermione, the Weasley twins, Neville, and several Gryffindors were facing off against a gang of Slytherins led by Malfoy Jr.

In addition to them, there was also a group of guys who also came to see the excitement because they heard the news that Eddie had deliberately spread, and most of them were Hufflepuff students.

Scott walked over and stood with the third group to get a close-up look at the cannon between Harry and Malfoy.

"I didn't expect you to be so kind to inform me so that I can enjoy the fruits of victory." Malfoy was holding his chin high and smirking, "What's the matter, do you finally know who to show you now?" ”

Harry angrily said, "You were wrong, I just want you to know what you did!" I want you to see the blood with your own eyes, because your actions have caused an innocent life to be brutally killed in front of you! ”

Malfoy's face turned a little pale when he heard this, but he still sneered and said, "Oh, don't be stupid, Potter, it's too late for me to be happy to see that beast put to death!" ”

His words were full of malice towards Harry, "Not only do I want to see that beast put to death, but I also want to watch you and that big stupid guy hug and cry." ”

Harry seemed to be genuinely angry, his fists clenched and his eyes glaring at Malfoy in disgust.

Malfoy was about to say something when the door to Hagrid's hut opened.

Dumbledore and Fudge were the first to come out of the house.

They were followed by two strange wizards.

One of them was already very old, he looked even much older than Dumbledore, and looked like a withered old tree.

The other was tall, with a sparse black beard on his lips and a shiny axe in his hand.

"They are members of the Magical Beasts Control Management Committee." "See, the executioner with the axe, his name is Walton?" McNeil, he's an old friend of my dad. ”

"Oh, of course, a bloody executioner." Harry said in a mocking tone, "He's perfectly suited to your father's befriending conditions." ”

"How dare you!" Malfoy roared, as if he was about to jump up and fight Harry.

Harry looked at him defiantly.

There was tension between the two.

But as Dumbledore and Fudge approached, their companions hurriedly grabbed them.

"How can there be so many students?" Scott heard Fudge say to Dumbledore with some displeasure, "Oh, Dumbledore, this is not going to work, these children can't look at this. ”

"Nothing can't be done, Mr. Minister." Fred had the audacity to say, "We're not going to be afraid." ”

"It's not a matter of being afraid." Fudge came closer.

Malfoy quickly stood up from the crowd and greeted the minister with a little respect, "Hello, Mr. Minister. ”

"Hello, Mr. Malfoy."

Seeing Malfoy, Fudge immediately smiled kindly.

However, before Malfoy could say anything more, Fudge had already switched his goals.

"Oh, how are you, Harry." He took the initiative to greet Harry, "I didn't expect you to be here." ”

Probably not very good at hiding his emotions, Malfoy's face immediately became a little difficult to look at.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Minister." Harry smiled politely.

"Take your friends back, Harry." "This is not for you kids," Fudge said. ”

By saying this, it was clear that Malfoy had been placed among Harry's friends.

Malfoy's face suddenly became even more ugly.

"Sir, we just wanted to give Buckbeak a ride." Harry hurriedly said in a pleading tone, "Please. ”

"This ......," Fudge looked at Dumbledore with some hesitation, "Albus, what do you think?" ”

Dumbledore, who had not spoken until now, looked at the students.

In front of the students, Dumbledore was obviously more majestic than the Minister of Magic, and under his gaze, everyone did not speak for a while.

"Stay away." Dumbledore said, "Stand far away, we won't let you see bad images." ”

Fudge nodded.

The students all began to step back, standing farther away at Dumbledore's instructions.

At this moment, the executioner, armed with an axe, shouted at the hut: "The time has come, come out with that mad beast, Hagrid!" ”

"I'm going to feed it a little bit!" Hagrid in the room responded loudly.

"The time has come!" The executioner urged again.

After a few more moments, Hagrid finally led Buckbeak out of the hut.

"I'm coming." He looked haggard and touched the feather on Buckbeak's neck with his hand, "Here we are." ”
