Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 52 There is something in the Forbidden Forest

After class in the afternoon, Lu Ke met Harry and three others in the corridor.

He smiled helplessly at the three of them: "Sorry, I was almost late..."

Harry shook his head: "It doesn't matter. Actually, this matter is not that urgent. Hagrid said that he seemed to have seen a rune snake in the Forbidden Forest."

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment. He remembered clearly that as early as the first grade, Lu Ke had seen on the Ravenclaw map that there was a nest of rune snakes in the Forbidden Forest.

"The Rune Snake... I don't know much about it... I cherish it very much."

Hermione started to popularize science with excitement on her face: "This is an extremely rare large venomous snake. They usually have three heads. They will kill each other when they are born. Almost none of them survive to lay eggs, and the rune snake's Eggs have an extremely precious and powerful effect, which is to make people smart!”

Lu Ke nodded: "That's amazing, Granger."

Harry and Ron looked proud of their friend Hermione.

"Hagrid said, if you are willing, you can go look for it in the Forbidden Forest together. The rune snake seems to have reached the age where it can lay eggs. It would be better if you find the nest."

Lu Ke nodded.

He could completely understand Hagrid's excitement. After all, such a treasured magical animal was in the Forbidden Forest, and he couldn't keep calm at all.

The three Harrys looked at Lu Ke expectantly: "Let's go now, Lu Ke!"

"We can't go if it's night, and Hagrid promised us that if you look after us, we can go too!"

Harry's face was filled with eagerness.

Lu Ke nodded helplessly.

Just as they were about to leave the castle, Johanna came to the four of them with Malfoy.

"Where are you going?"

Lu Ke smiled: "Hagrid's place."

Johanna nodded, then walked to Hermione: "I happen to be fine too, let's go together."

Lu Ke nodded, then looked at Malfoy.

Malfoy said matter-of-factly: "I want to follow the current Slytherin Seeker and learn what I need to learn from her."

Lu Ke glanced at Johanna with a smile, then nodded: "Behave better."

Then several of them walked to the edge of the Forbidden Forest together.

Hagrid has been waiting for a long time now.

As soon as he saw Lu Ke, he laughed: "You still have a friend in the Forbidden Forest, you will definitely find it now!"

Lu Ke smiled helplessly.

He knew that Hagrid's love of magical animals had returned.

Runes in particular are large, highly venomous snakes that are very dangerous, and are obviously Hagrid's favorite type.

"We don't have much time, let's get back before dinner!"

Hagrid nodded, then armed himself and walked into the Forbidden Forest with Fang.

"I found suspicious signs a few days after school started. At that time, I thought it was a large venomous snake. Later I found out that it was a venomous snake that I had never seen before. Then last night, I saw it during the night patrol. The snake hissed, making three different sounds like they were quarreling..."

Hermione nodded excitedly: "That's exactly what the Rune Snake is! It has three heads, and it's always arguing!"

Johanna nodded fondly: "Yes, Hermione knows so much!"

Hermione was a little embarrassed, but no one else here objected.

Hagrid nodded nonchalantly: "Yes, Hermione is the smartest second-year witch in the whole school!"

Harry and the others could only stand in helpless silence.

Lu Ke smiled and looked around.

There are traces left by the passing of horse people near here.

Sure enough, not long after, a group of horsemen came running with thunderous hooves.

"Lu Ke!"

Lu Ke smiled and nodded: "Is the hunting going well?"

The leading brown centaur shook his head: "This forest has changed. Many prey are hiding. Something strange is preying on us. Although we are not in danger, we still feel the aura of danger."

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment, then took out the Ravenclaw map and took a look.

He didn't know what his target was. There were too many magical animals hidden in the Forbidden Forest. Some things were impossible to find as long as they were hidden.

But there are certainly not many things that can make horse people feel dangerous when hunting here.

Lu Ke let the map show traces of large magical animals.

Then he noticed that the map was flooded with red dots.

Lu Ke gave up. There were at least hundreds of huge spiders in those red dots, as well as all kinds of messy things, some of which didn't even have names.

As before, Ravenclaw's map didn't work at all in the Forbidden Forest.

Lu Ke shook his head: "Be safe, if there is a clue to tell Hagrid, I can't come to the Forbidden Forest often, I'm sorry."

The centaur smiled and nodded: "Friends don't have to meet every day. Goodbye, Lu Ke."

After saying that, he left with his companions.

Hagrid looked at the centaurs leaving and sighed: "Their intuition is quite accurate and very powerful. If even the centaurs feel that there is danger, then we must be extra careful."

Lu Ke nodded: "There are three of us here, which is enough."

Hagrid was stunned for a moment: "Three?"

His original calculation included only himself and Lu Ke.

Lu Ke smiled helplessly: "Johanna is a very powerful witch, and her strength is recognized by Dumbledore."

Hagrid looked surprised, then nodded without hesitation: "That's good! We will definitely succeed."

They wandered aimlessly in the Forbidden Forest together. Although Hagrid knew a little about the environment that Rune Snake liked, Lu Ke's originally hopeful fangs had no effect at all, making Lu Ke very disappointed.

Time passed slowly, and they stopped outside the Forbidden Forest.

Lu Ke stopped Hagrid who was still unwilling to turn back: "We should turn back now, otherwise we won't be able to make it in time for dinner."

Hagrid was reluctant to give up like this, but Lu Ke was determined.

"All right……"

Hagrid sighed helplessly.

Harry and others were very disappointed. They came here for the feeling that Rune Snake was dangerous, rare, and in short, cool.

It's so disappointing now.

"I always think you should train Yaya."

Lu Ke helplessly touched the head of the big dog next to him.

Hagrid shook his head: "Ya Ya is very smart and perceptive. I think it's enough."

Lu Ke could only nod.

For Hagrid, there was no need to use his fangs to track prey.

It is not so much that Hagrid is guarding the Forbidden Forest as it is stopping it. Yaya does not need to learn any skills in hunting down prey in the Forbidden Forest.

Different from when they came, they followed Lu Ke straight to the direction of Hagrid's hut.
