A day at Hogwarts

"Hermione, you look good. Are you free now?"

The smile on Charles's face was extremely bright, and his voice was as natural and soft as possible.

Lavender Brown and Parvati Patil, who were sitting across the long table, covered their mouths in surprise and blushed slightly. They thought that it was a weekend night and he was going to date Hermione, maybe even Not which one?

Harry was sitting next to Hermione and studying his homework. Without hesitation for half a second, he immediately got up and ran away, still holding the quill in his hand.

Hermione's movements were not slow, and she was extremely agile. She put one hand on the table and jumped over the long table and slipped between Lavender and Parvati without looking back. The two girls were stunned.

Charles curled his lips, could this girl be so smart? If she turned around and ran away, he could stop her, but if she jumped to the other side, he couldn't pull off the girl's clothes. How would that be inappropriate?

Harry didn't act too stupid and knew that he would definitely look for Hermione after he found him.

Hermione was just too fast to outrun Harry, and Seamus and Neville, two bastards, stopped the British wizard's savior.

Charles went over and put his arm around Harry's shoulders and said, "Harry, you must be free now."

Although Harry didn't know what happened to Charles, he was definitely up to no good when he spoke like this. He immediately said, "Professor Grylls has something to do with me tomorrow. I want to go to bed early!"

Charles patted him on the shoulder and said, "I just asked Bell, if you don't have a mission tomorrow, you can go to the Forbidden Forest with me."

"Isn't this good?" Harry struggled at the end. "It is against school rules for students to enter the Forbidden Forest!"

The Forbidden Forest is very dangerous. Hogwarts has always prohibited students from entering without permission. Some people didn't take it seriously. After organizing an outdoor course on the edge of the Forbidden Forest last year, many people realized the danger and gave up the idea of ​​running in.

But for some people, the fresh and exciting experience makes them want to play inside even more.

Harry himself wanted to go in and play, but he didn't want to go with Charles now. He was too familiar with this guy. It would definitely be no good to ask someone if he was free with such a playful smile. No matter how much money he gave, he would not agree.

There are people in the Gryffindor common room who have very keen ears for sensitive words such as "forbidden forest", and Fred and George immediately appeared on either side of Charles.

"Dear Mr. Smith."

"Looks like you need some help?"

The Weasley twins knew that Charles had the right to enter the Forbidden Forest. They had often used his name to make excuses in front of Hagrid. Now it seemed that they could enter the Forbidden Forest openly, so they would not miss it.

Charles looked at the two of them and said with some embarrassment: "This is not good, I didn't go to the Forbidden Forest for fun."

Fred immediately said seriously: "We are here to help you solve your problems, not just for fun."

George similarly said: “There’s a job for us!”

The two of them thought that Charles must have work to do when he went to the Forbidden Forest. After helping him complete the work, wouldn't they be able to move around freely?

Charles was still very embarrassed: "It's not easy to trouble you with this kind of work."

Harry immediately complained: "Do you have the nerve to trouble me?"

Charles immediately nodded seriously.

Harry said to Neville: "Aren't you afraid that Charles will trick you? He can be bad sometimes!"

Neville answered seriously: "Charles asked Madam Angelina to cure my parents. I couldn't refuse when grandma said he asked me for help."

Harry sighed in his heart. If Charles could save his parents, he would be willing to let him clean the toilet.

Harry looked at Seamus again. No need to ask, he would definitely agree if Charles asked him to do something.

Fred and George continued to offer help, and Charles finally reluctantly agreed.

When Harry saw Charles looking at him again, he thought he couldn't run away, so he grabbed Ron who was busy copying Hermione's homework.

Harry and Ron were both caught, and Hermione's escape was in vain.

Charles led everyone to the northwest edge of the castle and followed the map along the stream.

The Forbidden Forest was particularly eerie under the moonlight. Everyone used their wands to illuminate the surroundings and walked cautiously.

Hermione pouted and asked Charles: "Where did you get the map?"

Charles replied, "Professor Sprout gave it to me."

Neville immediately realized that something was wrong, but since it was Charles who was looking for him, he didn't say anything.

Fred and George kept looking around, running to the side to study something from time to time, and quickly agreed on the clues.

"There are traces of Moon Chibi beast activity here!"

"Are we going to capture Moon Chibimon?!"

"There are footprints here."

"There are leftover mushrooms here."

…

The brothers became excited.

"Really?" Hermione also became interested and began to endorse: "The fur of Moon Crazy Beast is very smooth and light gray, its eyes are big and round, its legs look slender, and its feet are very big."

She looked up at the full moon in the sky and continued: "They are very timid animals. They only come out of their caves at night."

"It's a full moon night and they'll be dancing in the moonlight!"

She asked Charles with some excitement: "Are we going to watch the Moon Chi Beast dance?"

Charles smiled and said nothing.

Hermione took it as his acquiescence.

"Can we really see the Moon Chima dance?" Hermione became more and more excited. "The dance of the Moon Chima is very rare, and many people will never have the chance to see it once in their lifetime!"

Others also became excited. Charles never said what he was doing, but he didn't expect it to be such an interesting thing.

Harry patted Charles on the shoulder and said, "It seems that I blamed you wrongly."

Charles said: "If we are lucky, we can see the moon-loving beasts from different places dancing together."

Hermione asked in surprise: "Really? There's no record in the book?"

Charles said: "You can look for the book written by Pappy Sweeting. She has seen the Moonstruck Beast dance twice when she was at Hogwarts."

"By the way, that was her name when she was at Hogwarts. She may have changed her surname later."

Hermione thought thoughtfully and said: "There was indeed a magical animal scholar named Pappy in the past. He was in a hurry to find the basilisk and did not read carefully about other harmless magical animals."

Charles nodded in agreement.

Pappy Sweeting is a classmate and good friend of the old man in the same college. They have experienced many things together, all related to magical animals.

Neville continued: "I heard my grandma talk about this scholar. Grandma said that there used to be many poachers in Britain, and the Forbidden Forest was no exception. Later, those poachers disappeared. It is said that one of her friends did not leave a name. It’s about classmates.”

Hermione asked in surprise: "Ah, didn't the book say that the poachers died suddenly of strange infectious diseases? It's impossible for her classmates to kill all the poachers, right?"

Charles smiled and said nothing as he listened, and he was right. The Avada Kedavra Curse can also be passed from person to person.

A "coo" sound came from the distance, and the sound became louder and louder, and everyone suddenly became nervous.

Charles said calmly: "Don't be nervous, that's the cry of the Moon Chi Beast."

Not far ahead was a large open space. When the group walked there, they were stunned by the sight in front of them.

I don’t know how many moon-crazed beasts have gathered here. There are groups here and there. Maybe all the moon-crazed beasts from the Forbidden Forest are here.

The fur on their backs appears dark blue in the moonlight, and their round necks look larger than their bodies. Their two big eyes are like car headlights, and they each raise their heads to look at the full moon in the sky.

Charles smiled and said: "It seems that we have caught up."

"Wow!" Girls don't have much resistance to cute things, "Can I touch them?"

Charles shook his head and said, "It's best not today."

Suddenly, the Moon-Crazy Beasts became quiet and motionless, as if waiting for something.

Fred whispered, "They seem to be waiting for the moon to rise to a certain point."

Just as he said, the previously motionless Moon-Crazy Beasts suddenly became active, shouting "Gu Gu Gu Gu" happily, shaking their heads, and jumping and running in the open space.

They first ran alone in groups, and soon began to merge. In a few minutes, hundreds of moon-crazy beasts gathered into a complex pattern, intertwining with each other, but not colliding.

Moonlight-like light gradually appeared on the ground where Yue Chimon ran, forming a strange and beautiful pattern when viewed from a height.

The scope of the pattern became larger and larger, and it didn't take long for the human audience to surround it.

No one has ever seen such a sight, and we feel so happy that we have the urge to run and jump with them.

After half an hour, the collective dance of the Yue Chi Beasts ended, and they suddenly dispersed, as if the ground was covered with a dark blue carpet.

The place where they danced just now is still glowing, and there are mushrooms the size of fingers.

Everyone was squatting on the ground, wondering where the mushroom came from.

Charles explained: "The moon-crazy beasts live in caves, and the soles of their feet are often stained with spores of this mushroom."

It didn't take long for the Moon-Crazy Beasts to run away like a roar, and everyone was confused.

Charles continued to explain: "The first full moon night in spring is the time for them to find a mate, and now they have to go back to making little moon-crazy beasts."

At this time, there was a strange smell in the air, which had been smelled in the greenhouse, and everyone covered their noses.

Charles stood up, took out his tools, and said to everyone with a smile: "Let's get down to business. What we need to do now is collect the feces of the Moon Chimera."

Everyone's excitement at seeing a rare sight suddenly turned into a cold feeling.

Hermione's face was a little distorted, and she asked him through gritted teeth: "Is this what you came to us for?"

Charles had already thought of an excuse: "Don't we often use the compost of Yue Chi beast's excrement in the herbal medicine class? This is also part of the study. Otherwise, how could I get permission to come to the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night?"

Harry sighed, nothing happened.

Ron is the most innocent person. He messes with whoever he wants, and he does his homework well, only to be called in to shovel shit.

Seamus put his arm around Ron's shoulders and said, "I'll borrow Scabbers tonight and throw it on Charles' bed."

The twin brothers wanted to finish the work quickly so they could do their own thing, so they took the tools and started shoveling shit.

After a while, Fred shouted: "Everyone, come here quickly!"
