Chapter 221: It's Time to Go

"Forbidden Forest! Dumbledore told you to hide your weapons in the Forbidden Forest! Take me now! ”

Umbridge was so excited, even a little impatient, that the thought of finding Dumbledore's weapon against the Ministry of Magic and handing it over to the Minister would give her might reward, she felt every cell in her body rejoice.

"Come with me, and see what Dumbledore has prepared!"

He ...... They can't go ......" Hermione's words immediately poured cold water on Umbridge's head, "That's what Dumbledore prepared, you don't want too many people to know, after all, ......"

As she spoke, Hermione glanced at the Slytherin students next to her, her eyes wandering and meaningful. Seeing this, Umbridge calmed down, and several thoughts turned in his heart, and he had already figured out the key to it.

Putting the wand back in his hand, he pulled Harry up from the ground, pointed at Hermione and said, "Then you two take me there!" Now, immediately! ”

She gave Harry a hard shove, shoved him and staggered, and walked out first. Hermione struggled, finally breaking free from Persted's shackles.

He glanced at him coldly, and with a gesture of his hand, the wand flew back from Malfoy's hand. Slipping into his pockets and covering himself with his clothes, he chased Harry and Umbridge and closed the office door. Just the moment the door closed, a white light quietly crept through the crack in the door.

"Hurry up, keep up!" Umbridge was still urging, and Hermione answered and ran over. She didn't think much of it, and when Hermione came over, she also took advantage of the momentum and pushed her back, holding her wand in her hand and urging the two of them to walk in the direction of the Forbidden Forest.

Hermione walked in the front, Harry took a slight half step back, and although he didn't know what Hermione's plan was, he knew that if he didn't know where to go, he would definitely not work. He didn't talk to Hermione either, for fear of ruining Hermione's plans.

They walked through the hallways, the stairs, and out of the foyer in the direction of Hagrid's hut. But he didn't stop, he went over the hut and into the Forbidden Forest.

Hermione strode fast, Harry wasn't slow, he already had a vague idea of where Hermione was going. Umbridge had a hard time following it, especially as they got deeper and deeper, with more and more trees around them and the light getting darker and darker.

"Haven't you arrived yet? Where the hell is it? Umbridge asked.

Hermione's voice was a little erratic, and she replied, "It's still in there, it's a weapon after all, and you can't let the students find out, can you?" ”

"yes, yes......" Umbridge replied casually, Hermione seemed to have a point.

They walked deeper, and there were more and more shrubs around them. Hermione, who was at the front, didn't slow down, and scraped the bushes with a rattle.

The sound was very loud, adding a bit of horror to the current dim environment.

Suddenly, Harry noticed that the ground was shaking beneath his feet, and a deafening sound of footsteps was heard in his ears. When he was stunned, he heard Hermione in front of him whisper "Damn", and before he could ask, a wooden arrow suddenly shot from his side and nailed directly to the tree next to him.

"Stop! This is not the place for you! ”

A voice rang out, and Harry could tell that it was Margery's voice, who they had met with Hagrid and Glopp on their way back, a centaur who hated wizards.

Umbridge grabbed Harry in front of him, wand in his hand and stared warily at the centaurs. In contrast, although Harry was nervous, when he saw that Hermione was not flustered, his heart was much calmer, and he did not struggle too much.

"Who are you?" A dozen centaurs surrounded them in the center, all with bows and arrows, with Margery at the front, keeping an eye on Umbridge.

"I'm Dolores Umbridge!" Umbridge's voice trembled a little, and she replied in a loud voice, "I'm the Deputy Minister of Magic, Headmaster of Hogwarts and High Inquisitor!" ”

"Ministry of Magic?" Margery hesitated, and there was some commotion among the centaurs next to him.

Umbridge was given some insight into the movement of the horses, and she exclaimed, "That's right! So pay a lot of attention! You know, according to the laws of the Department of Magical Beasts Control of the Ministry of Magic, any mongrel like you attacks humans......"

"What do you call us!" Margaret roared angrily, and the other centaurs didn't hesitate any longer, and drew their bows and aimed them at Umbridge.

"What are you doing here! Come to our woods ......."

"Your woods?" Umbridge didn't show any weakness, "The reason you're here is because the Ministry of Magic allowed you to be here, you stupid ......"

"Smack!"

An arrow suddenly fired, and Umbridge subconsciously lowered her head, and the arrow flew just above her head and burrowed into the trunk of the tree behind her.

"Whose forest? Whose forest? Margery shouted, and in a fit of rage, he took out another arrow and put it on his bow. But before he could attack again, Umbridge pointed his wand at him and shouted, "Hurry up!" ”

A thick, long rope suddenly appeared, binding Margery's arm in a strong way, leaving a long stretch around his neck.

He struggled vigorously, but he couldn't break free at all. The other centaurs were immediately anxious when they saw this, and rushed over angrily, directly grabbed Umbridge, who had not yet reacted, and dragged her into the dense forest.

"Hurry up!" With a flick of Hermione's wand, the rope that had been tied to Margaret vanished. It was only for a short moment that his face turned red, and he coughed violently for a while before he got up from the ground.

"I don't need your help, you're not welcome here!" Margaret glared at the two of them and cursed loudly.

Hermione didn't get angry at all, instead pointed behind him and said, "Before you curse something nasty, I think you need to look behind you......"

Margery subconsciously turned his head, but saw a huge and ugly face appear behind him, and he was immediately frightened, and he couldn't care about anything else, so he ran away.

Only then did Harry notice Glop, who didn't know when he came over, looked at Hermione stupidly, and asked, "How did you do that?" ”

"What?" Hermione was patting Glopp's big face and turned her head in confusion.

"I mean he ......" Harry pointed to Glopp and then to the direction Margery had fled, "when did he come over, and why didn't he make any noise?" ”

"Silence Spell." Hermione replied casually, ignoring Harry and instead whispering a few words to Glopp. Slapping him on the face again, Grope left in Harry's shocked gaze.

As before, there was no sound at all.

"Let's go, it's time for us to leave." Hermione reached out and shook it in front of Harry's eyes, bringing his attention back, "They're supposed to be there too." ”

"They, who? Ron? Harry was stunned for a moment, seeing that Hermione had already gone out, and hurriedly followed.

"Yes, I helped them before leaving, and they should have come in by now." Hermione said, "Hurry up, it's still not safe in here." ”

Harry felt that his brain was a little insufficient, and Hermione just now made him feel a little strange, although as reliable as ever, it was very different from her in previous years.

Follow Hermione out, and when I went back, I was faster, and when I reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest, I finally saw Ron and the others.

They were all a little embarrassed, wands in their hands, and strangely excited, even Neville.

"Where are we going next?" Ron asked.

"Where are you going?" Harry subconsciously repeated, then remembered, "Sirius! We have to save him! He's in the Department of Mysteries! ”

"Department of Mysteries?" Ginny frowned, "Now? How are we going to get there? ”

"Broom! Let's fly over! With that, Harry was about to run, "We need to get a broom!" ”

"But, not all of us have brooms......" Hermione grabbed the anxious Harry, who was stunned when he heard this, looked at Hermione and Neville next to him, and scratched his hair in annoyance.

"Then I'll go myself......"

"You're going to die!" Hermione whispered, tightening her grip on Harry's arm again.

"......Well," Harry had said before he could finish his sentence, "we can ride them, as Hagrid said, they're good at finding their way." ”

Harry looked in the direction Luna was pointing, but saw nothing, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed: "There's nothing there, Luna!" Now is not the time for jokes! ”

"No, they're right there, smelling your blood." Luna's voice was still erratic, but firm, "You just can't see it......"

"We can't see ......," Hermione muttered, then realized, "Thestrals? It's Thestrals! Luna, how many are there? ”

"Two horses." Luna replied.

"But we need six." Ginny interjected.

"It's okay, they're coming......"

Luna stretched out her hand and pointed again, and in her eyes, there were six or seven tall Thestrals coming out of the woods. Their massive wings are tucked at their sides, and their eyes sparkle in the darkness.
