"To the Forbidden Forest?" Ringo blinked.

He thought it was a routine closure such as wiping the night pot in the school hospital, cleaning the trophy showroom, or accompanying Filch to sort out the files, but he didn't expect McGonagall to give herself a big one!

During the daytime flight lesson, he still thought about practicing the illusion spell before going to the Forbidden Forest.

- There's no need to rush to practice.

And McGonagall's purpose was to punish Ringo.

Hearing the "surprise" and "dazedness" in Ringo's words, he naturally thought he was frightened: "That's right, Mr. Shelby, the purpose of confinement is to make you realize your mistakes and prevent them from repeating them, so you heard you right...... Plus, Slytherin has to deduct 50 points for it! ”

Poof......

Flint and Caro scoffed softly.

Although they were commanded by Ringo, the Snake Courtyard also deducted points, but when they saw Ringo deflated, they immediately gloated.

But McGonagall quickly glared at them again.

Let these two hold back their untimely laughter.

But even so.

The two of them kept frowning for the rest of the time, afraid that they wished that something would happen to Ringo in the Forbidden Forest......

That is, until Ringo was led to Hagrid by Filch, who had arrived again with Madam Pomfrey.

to stay away from these two fools.

And because the fight had been delayed for a long time, there were not many students in the auditorium, at least none of the people Ringo knew were there, so although he was pointed at twice, no one intercepted him, and he followed Filch out of the castle very smoothly.

Along.

Filch naturally and gloomily publishes his way of being out of confinement:

“…… Ha, Shelby, I knew from the day you seduced my Lady Loris that you weren't an honest man, and now you've committed a crime, but alas...... Those two Slytherins thought it was a terrible punishment to go to the Forbidden Forest, so what was that? If you want me to talk about the old-fashioned punishment of the past...... Hang you by the wrists and hang you from the ceiling for days, with occasional whips...... That would prevent recidivism......"

"You think I'm wrong?" Ringo was not afraid of him, and even held Mrs. Loris's arms in front of him, so he directly pushed back, "I can't fight back when I am bullied by the seniors, and I am wrong to fight back?" ”

Filch immediately got angry and said, "Watch your tone! ”

"I'm fine, Mr. Filch, I think you can understand what I'm talking about, right?" Ringo stared at him meaningfully, "No one is born inferior, and no one is born to be bullied, even if they are flawed...... For example, they call me a mudblood, but as long as they dare to bully me, then I should fight back within my ability, this is the most correct thing in the world, are you right? ”

“……”

Filch opened his mouth to choke back.

But at the sight of Lady Loris, who was snoring comfortably in Ringo's arms, and Ringo's eyes that seemed to burn people's souls, he suddenly snorted, as if he had been seen through, and immediately turned his head to the side, and responded with a cold snort.

But Ringo wasn't going to let him go: "Filch, I can call you that, right?" I'm good friends with Lady Loris, and I know Lady Surkel, so you don't have to target me......"

"If you can't break the school rules!" Filch was still resistant, but his voice was no longer like that of talking to other young wizards.

"Of course, that's what I mean, and on that basis we can be friends...... Don't be in a hurry to object, you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Lady Loris, if its stomach disease never gets better, there is no pet hospital in the wizarding world, you have to treat it, right? And if we become friends, I can invite you to my house, I have a good pet hospital under my name, and I am very experienced with this kind of cat stomach disease......"

Little wizards who walked or fell in love outside the castle soon discovered a spectacle.

Hogwarts' most annoying Filch and the most anticipated genius Ringo actually come together, Ringo holds Filch's cat, and the two talk and laugh along the way - both Ringo laughs - looks like friends, can almost scare Merlin to life......

Of course.

Until he approached Hagrid's hut, Filch did not respond to Ringo's words of "being friends".

He was silent on the road, not knowing what he was thinking, but when he saw Hagrid, he said coldly, "Hagrid, this student has been asked by Professor McGonagall to go with you to the Forbidden Forest and confinement. ”

Hagrid, who was arranging the giant crossbow, was taken aback when he heard this: "Go to the Forbidden Forest and be confined? Oh...... Ringo? It's you, what the hell is going on? ”

"The senior Slytherin sneaked up on me with a polyjuice decoction and was injured by me, so ......," Ringo said briefly.

"Then you should also be punished to clean the castle, how can you go to the Forbidden Forest, the Forbidden Forest is very dangerous...... No, I'll have to talk to Professor McGonagall. Hagrid recognized Ringo's friend, but when he misheard that Ringo was not there, he was even more angry, and put down his crossbow and wanted to go to the castle.

But he was soon stopped by Filch: "It's useless, it's already good to go to the Forbidden Forest...... After all, compared to this, he beat up the senior and had to be dropped out of school. ”

"Get out of the way, old rice bucket!" Hagrid didn't listen to him.

But Filch ignored Hagrid either.

Anyway, the person arrived, and he picked up Lady Loris and walked back.

Just walking, but suddenly without looking back, he suddenly jumped out and said: "If you think it's dangerous, then let him follow you and don't separate, you big idiot......"

Tut......

Filch's kindness?

It's not in vain that I just said so much......

Ringo smiled and stopped Hagrid: "Hagrid, Filch is right, let me go to the Forbidden Forest, in fact, Professor McGonagall protects me, because that senior was beaten up by me very badly, and may be expelled from school, if I am not punished 'severely', I am afraid that I will be targeted by the other family, and Headmaster Dumbledore may not be able to explain it at that time." ”

Mention of Dumbledore.

Hagrid gradually quieted down: "Okay, Ringo, just like the old rice bucket said, don't stay too far away from me later...... Yaya, you follow Ringo closely. ”

Barking!

The scary-looking but intimidating black hound barked twice and approached Ringo.

"Why do you suddenly want to go to the Forbidden Forest to patrol? Hagrid, after all, it's dangerous at night......" Ringo blocked his big tongue and fed it some dog food.

- Before coming, I used the Cleanup Charm and the Repair Charm to recover most of the things I had lost before.

"Because Unicorns ......"

"I feed them on a regular basis, but the food I put three days ago is still not being eaten, and I am afraid that they will be attacked."

Hagrid took the quiver on his back.

Take Ringo to the Forbidden Forest: "You know the unicorn, right? ”

"Know! I've heard that they prefer women, especially pure maidens......" Ringo remembered Quirrell, who was going to suck the blood of unicorns because of Voldemort, which happened after Easter in the original books, but now it seems that this is the beginning.

"Yes! That's right! I love them, but I have to say that they are so fussy that it took me a long time to develop a relationship with them......"

The two chatted and entered the Forbidden Forest.

The night wind howled.

Oak, maple, and beech trees that are decades or even more than a hundred years old are luxuriant, and the thick branches obscure the bright moonlight, and the occasional mottled light is swallowed up by the thick pile of fallen leaves, which is colder than the outside world, and even Hagrid subconsciously wraps his coat tightly.

Amid the strange cries of various animals, Hagrid constantly reassured Ringo not to be afraid, to follow him closely, and to keep warm...... Occasionally, when he encountered a sad stream quagmire, he also personally carried Ringo over to prevent Ringo from suffering as much as possible.

But even so.

When it comes to the unicorn infested area that is actually not very deep.

Ringo still scratched several places......

"Still haven't eaten." Hagrid looked at the unicorn feed on a stone platform, a little messy, but there was no sign of gnawing, "Looks like something happened to them." ”

Ringo cast a healing spell on himself: "Shall we go deeper then?" ”

"Yes!"

"But the Forbidden Forest is so big! We didn't know how to get around at all......"

"Don't worry, I have a homemade whistle and the unicorn will come whenever it hears it." Hagrid pulled out a parchment map, "Let's follow the center. ”

Whistle blowing in the forbidden forest at night?

The corners of Ringo's mouth twitched, but seeing that Hagrid was full of confidence, he couldn't say anything...... It's not like headless flies wandering around anyway.

The two set off again, heading towards the center of the unicorn-infested area.

Hagrid kept blowing the whistle all the way.

The whistle is muffled.

It's not unpleasant.

It's just that nocturnal birds are constantly frightened, and then fall all over the ground with bird feces and miscellaneous hairs, which makes both of them not very happy......

Of course, this is nothing, because the more unpleasant is yet to come - they cross the unicorn infested area and blow the whistle all the way, but not a single unicorn appears!

Hagrid's face under his beard was full of worry, and he hurried ahead, whistling nonstop.

Ringo was exhausted.

Ten meters behind Hagrid, he followed slowly - considering that Hagrid would turn back when he got to the end, he walked more and more slowly, and even divided his mind to observe his surroundings.

Soon, he heard a faint humming sound.

By kerosene lights.

He saw a little man the size of a thumb with colorful butterfly-like wings, merrily collecting silver-white hairs from the weeds, and each time he collected it, he made a "whoosh" sound.

No!

More than one.

There were five to be exact, but the other four seemed to have been trampled on in a horseshoe-shaped depression in the ground, and green blood burst to the ground.

Other words.

The thumb man was still happily collecting "shiny hair" at the scene where his companion was trampled on, and he didn't even care about Ringo approaching with an oil lamp.

This is...... Fairy?

Ringo came up with the name of a magical animal.

Still, he asked Hagrid, "Hagrid, what do you think this is?" ”

Hagrid hurried over, loud, but even that didn't scare the thumbman away: "Unicorn footprints, hair, and...... A little dried blood? ”

"No, I mean the villain."

Ringo glanced at him, wondering if it shouldn't be the villain more obvious?

But Hagrid only had unicorns in mind.

Wen Yan just glanced at it: "Oh, a little bug." ”

"Little bugs? I think it seems to be a magical animal called a fairy, right? Seems a bit of an IQ? ”

"Yes...... But it doesn't matter. Hagrid was a little impatient, "Ringo, our goal is to find a unicorn, if you like this little bug, I can give you a jar later!" ”

"No, no, no, I just wanted to ask, are they a bit of an IQ?"

"It's a little bit!"

Ringo met Hagrid's gaze: "Then since you have a bit of intelligence, Hagrid, why don't we ask him about the unicorn?" ”
