Chapter 101 Memory and Letter

There was no one in the dark common room, and Connor and Cedric's confinement didn't seem to be over yet.

Kyle didn't turn on the light, just sitting quietly on a sofa thinking about something.

Too much happened tonight, and he needed to sort it out.

First of all, Kyle can be sure that the person they saw during the night tour was Hagrid, and it could not be someone else pretending to be him.

Even if someone could use Polyjuice Potion to imitate it, then the Fang who was with him at that time couldn't possibly be an Animagus.

After all, Polyjuice Potion doesn't work on animals.

But if Hagrid was himself at that time, then why would he say that he had never been to the Forbidden Forest at that time.

And Dumbledore's words.

Memory, forgetting spell?

Or... the venom of the Winged Demon.

Kyle took out a small piece of wood with corrosion marks from his pocket, put it in his hand and rubbed it gently.

This was something he had secretly cut off from the tree trunk before Hagrid wasn't paying attention.

Under the moonlight, the wooden block glowed with a light blue fluorescent light.

The color is indeed right, but Kyle remembered that the venom of the crouching demon is not corrosive. Could it be that he remembered it wrong?

Just as he was thinking about it, the door to the lounge was opened again, and two figures walked in one after the other. New 𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Kyle, you are indeed here."

Cedric lowered his voice and said, "Filch left just now and came back angrily. He must have gone to find you at that time."

Kyle put away the wooden block and nodded: "I did see him when I came back."

"What did you do to make him so angry?" Cedric asked curiously.

"It's not me, it's Hagrid." Kyle shook his finger and said, "He was defeated by Hagrid."

"No wonder Filch is so angry. I remember he and Hagrid were always at odds with each other."

Cedric continued: "By the way, what is your confinement? Before, I thought we would definitely be able to come back before you.

Fred told me that having five people cleaning the trophy room together was something that had never happened before and it was so relaxing.

But Filch felt the same way, so he made us wipe it three times before agreeing to end the confinement. "

"I'm about the same." Kyle said, "I was taken to the Forbidden Forest, and I went there with Hagrid to find something."

"Going to the Forbidden Forest, or at night?" Cedric was stunned.

He had thought about countless possibilities before, including copying books, cleaning classrooms, wiping armor, etc., but he never thought that Kyle's confinement would actually involve going to the Forbidden Forest.

This is not the same, it is obviously too different!

By the way, were they really imprisoned for the same thing?

Even though they had been to the Forbidden Forest once at night, it was only in the outermost area. There was no danger even at night.

But looking for something with Hagrid, no matter how much you think about it, you can’t just take a walk outside.

"Are you hurt?" Kangna asked nervously.

"Of course not. If I was injured, I should be in the infirmary now." Kyle said with a smile: "Let me tell you, I also saw centaurs in the Forbidden Forest..."

Kyle told about what he saw in the Forbidden Forest, and Cedric and Connor were stunned for a moment.

Their expressions had gradually changed from worry to envy.

They also want to see the depths of the Forbidden Forest...

The sky gradually became brighter, and the three of them stopped talking after feeling sleepy.

After returning to the dormitory, Kyle lay on the bed unable to sleep, so he took out the parchment and quill and wrote a letter in the moonlight.

Then he packed the letter, wrote the address and put it in front of Raton.

"It's going to be a tough trip for you." Kyle whispered: "Send this letter to Newt tomorrow morning. If he hasn't come back yet, put the letter on the biggest tree at the door.

There is a Bowtruckle there, which will help keep the letters. "

Kyle decided to find Newt, just in case the venom of the crouching demon was indeed corrosive. After all, it was a magical creature, and it was not unusual for it to mutate.

I just don’t know if he’s back at this time...

It's best if you come back, it doesn't matter if you don't have one.

Anyway, Dumbledore already knew about this, so he didn't need to worry about the rest.

Raton opened one eye and put his paw on the envelope.

After receiving the reply, Kyle lay on the bed again, and this time he fell asleep quickly.

…

After that, neither Dumbledore nor Hagrid looked for him again, and Kyle was happy to be free. He suppressed his curiosity and began to concentrate on preparing for the final exam.

As exam week approaches, the castle seems to have changed overnight. Little wizards can be seen walking and practicing wand movements everywhere.

Hogwarts Castle at this time is also the most dangerous time of the year, because there are always little wizards who subconsciously utter spells when waving their wands.

And there are quite a few such people. Kyle just walked from the lounge to the auditorium and already saw two unlucky guys accidentally injured by the curse.

Fortunately, the only ones they had were the levitating spell and the repairing spell, so they didn't need to go to the school hospital.

Kyle carefully avoided the assassins hidden in the crowd and arrived at the auditorium without any danger.

The professors also knew about it.

There was no way, almost every audience had two or three little wizards who were absent because they were sent to the school hospital. It was difficult for them not to know even if they didn't know.

In the Transfiguration class, Professor McGonagall strictly prohibited the young wizards from practicing wand movements in the corridor.

"What have you been doing?"

Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and said, "If you want to practice from now on, just find an empty classroom. If I see anyone unable to control their wand again, then he will be imprisoned for a week."

Compared to Professor McGonagall, Snape's approach was more direct. He told everyone that if anyone was absent from Potions class because of this incident, I'm sorry. All drug results will be immediately invalidated.

It's just so unreasonable.

In addition, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Kyle always felt that Snape glanced at him when he said this.

Under the explicit prohibition of the professors, in less than half a day, all those castle assassins quickly disappeared.

By the time they had dinner, Hogwarts had once again returned to its previous calm and peaceful state, as if nothing had happened.

At the dinner table, Kyle was cutting the steak on the plate absentmindedly.

He was not worried that Snape would sneak up on him, but that he was worried about Raton.

It has been five days since I sent the letter, and Raton has not come back yet.

In five days, from Dorset to Hogwarts, you can go back and forth several times even by train.
