Unsure of Professor Kettleburn's health, Sevan got up early the next day and rushed to the professor's shack.

Knocking on the wooden door of the shack, Xiwen stood at the door with some trepidation.

It was a long time before Shewin was about to break down the door when Professor Kettleburn's tired, unshaven face appeared at the door.

"Little Xiwen?" He asked. "Why are you here?"

"Professor, are you all right?" Xiwen pondered his words and asked implicitly.

The professor looked at him suspiciously, and said, "What can I have?" Let me tell you, I slept last night, and I dreamed of a big cat and leopard that I had seen in the Americas before, and that guy was amazing......"

As he spoke, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Wait, how did I sleep yesterday?" He asked suspiciously as he looked at Xiwen, who was so weak that he looked down at his toes. "Also, why didn't I take off my shoes when I went to bed last night?"

'Can I say that the taste is too strong to take off......

Of course, Xiwen didn't dare to say this, he just said: "Professor, you fell there after one glance at my kitten yesterday, or did I put you to bed......"

"The kitten is still small, it must not have been intentional, and you didn't get hurt. So can you punish her......" Xiwen was not worried about the kitten, and began to plead with Professor Kettleburn.

The professor was stunned for a moment, and suddenly became emotional.

"Cats and leopards! It must be a cat-leopard! He shook Shevan's shoulders and yelled. Yellow eyes, good at hypnosis. Fast! What about your cat? This is a major discovery, confirming that cats and leopards can interbreed with small cats such as raccoons! ”

"Forehead ......" Xiwen was stunned by the shaking, and silently broke away from the professor's remaining right hand. Fearing that the professor would retaliate against the kitten, he said vigilantly. "I didn't bring the cat this morning, or tonight?"

"Then come here on time at seven o'clock tonight!" Professor Kettleburn said vigorously. "Just so I'll prepare some information first."

After saying that, he urged Xiwen to leave, and he hurried in the direction of the castle on crutches.

Looking at the professor who was leaving in a hurry, Xiwen shrugged his shoulders and started his daily morning exercise next to him.

……

Expecting to return to his dorm room too early in the evening, Xiwen went to the library during the day to complete his homework for the week.

Because it's only been a week since the start of school, the professors of each subject don't have much homework, such as the Transfiguration class, the Charms class, and the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, all of which are just for the little wizards to practice the spells they practiced in class.

The assignment in the herbal medicine class is to write a 7-inch essay on the handling and storage methods of white fresh. Although Xiwen didn't go to a class, after getting the notes of Miranda, a college bully who ranked first in his grade all the year, it was no problem to complete this kind of task.

The homework in Potions class was a preview of some of the basic details of the preparation of the potion of the living hell, and after skimming it roughly, Xiwen memorized it with his strong memory.

The most homework in the history of magic was to write a foot-long essay on the werewolf's code of conduct, and Xiwen spent a lot of effort finding the corresponding materials in the library, and finally wrote a good one. However, he was curious about how Professor Binns corrected his assignments as a ghost......

After the assignment was snatched away by Abraxas and Mobley in the name of borrowing, Sivin reluctantly carried the kitten and walked to Professor Kettleburn's shack.

By the time Xiwen arrived, the professor was already dressed and waiting at the door of the shed. He rarely had no crutches, and stood on the gravel road in front of the door. Today, he wears a fur-trimmed cowhide hood, an earthy yellow jacket with only one sleeve, a pair of faded jeans, and a cowhide hydration bag and an oil lamp around his waist.

"Professor, your legs?" Xiwen asked in surprise as he looked at the professor's empty right hand and full jeans.

Professor Kettleburn lifted the trouser leg, showed the wooden leg inside the trouser to Shevin, and said proudly, "This thing is very useful, more than enough for the right leg." Look, I don't need to regenerate a new leg at all! ”

Xiwen looked at the so-called prosthetic leg, which was no different from an ordinary wooden stick, and fell into deep thought......

"Let's go, come with me to patrol the Forbidden Forest today." The professor waved his hand and walked ahead. "You can't escape this time!"

"Professor, what about the kittens?" Xiwen asked hurriedly.

The professor said, "Just take it with you, let her see the world!" ”

Xiwen was still a little worried, and asked with a frown, "But won't she be in danger?" ”

"She has leopard blood! You might worry about her as much as you worry about yourself. Professor Kettleburn glared at him hatefully and said.

"And I'm very familiar with the Forbidden Forest, there's nothing dangerous, don't worry!"

Xiwen had no choice but to nod and say nothing more.

In fact, Heven was also very curious about the Forbidden Forest. After all, at the opening ceremony, Principal Diper personally spoke, strictly forbidding the little wizard to go to the Forbidden Forest.

Wait, Professor Kettleburn says there's no danger, so why doesn't the Chancellor let him into the Forbidden Forest?

So Xiwen asked: "Professor, you said that the Forbidden Forest is not dangerous, so why does Principal Dippert not allow students to enter?" ”

"I don't want to go into the Forbidden Forest every day just to get those lost little naughty bags out." Professor Kettleburn said angrily. "What's more, there is a centaur territory in the Forbidden Forest, and they won't be polite to wizards."

"I see." Shiwen nodded.

Yes, one of the greatest dangers of entering a forest is not anything dangerous in the forest, but the risk of people getting lost in a forest with complex vegetation and terrain. What's more, even the forests of the Muggle realm are filled with many unknowns, not to mention the Forbidden Forest, which is full of magical creatures.

……

Professor Kettleburn carried an oil lamp, and two wizards, one large and one young, walked into the Forbidden Forest. Under the illumination of the light, the shadows of the two dragged behind them, and they were stretched for a long, long time.

If one looks from a distance, they will see that the Forbidden Forest is very dark and gloomy, and the whole forest is shrouded in mist. The huge, dense trees joined together, casting a heavy black shadow in the moonlight, like a giant beast that wanted to choose people, engulfing both Professor Kettleburn and Xiwen in one gulp......
