Chapter 275 Hermione meets Pappy

Pappy Sweeting often comes to the Forbidden Forest,

Hermione wasn't surprised at all to see her here.

Hermione would actually feel happy about it,

Because this Papi looks almost the same as it was in 1994,

In Hermione's eyes, this was proof that she had not deviated from the timeline for too long.

Hermione pretended to be nonchalant and greeted Pappy.

"Hi, good afternoon, Pappy."

The reason why she didn't mention time travel is because Hermione didn't know whether she was in the past or the future.

If you are in the past,

So tell Pabby about the time turner in advance,

It may have an impact on the future.

Pappy Sweeting was stunned for a moment,

But he still responded politely to Hermione,

"Good afternoon, are you alone?"

The Forbidden Forest is still somewhat dangerous, and Papi is confident.

But for a little witch who looks young, it's not too safe.

Hermione didn't know the twists and turns, because in her impression, this place had been classified as a safe zone by Hagrid because it was close to Hogwarts.

No dangerous magical animals are allowed near here,

She replied,

"Yes, Harry, Ron, and Draco are all busy at the moment. I came here because I have something to ask Hagrid."

Then Hermione said,

"I won't disturb you anymore and go back first."

After saying that, she looked anxious and trotted in one direction.

Pappy was still thinking about the meaning of those names and didn't notice the direction Hermione left.

When she came to her senses, she shouted anxiously,

"It's not safe over there, there are..."

It's a pity that the strange little witch has run away.

And heard Papi’s cry,

A fire dragon about thirty feet long with rough black scales landed next to Pappy.

This fire dragon has a pair of upward-facing horns and a pair of downward-facing horns.

With a spine as sharp as a razor and a tail as sharp as an arrow,

Her purple eyes were piercing,

The only fly in the ointment is that there is an unhealed scar on the eyebrow bone of her left eye, and the same is true on her face.

And there are many unhealed holes on the dragon's wing membrane, which is like a bat's wing.

This is a Hesidian black dragon in its prime,

It was someone who saved him from the dragon fighting arena with Pappy.

Hesidian Islands Black Dragon

The fire dragon brought its head to Papi's side. The Bowtruckle in Papi's hand was so frightened that it pretended to be a branch.

Pappy put the frightened Bowtruckle into his robe with his left hand.

He gently stroked the cheek of the Hesidian Islands Black Dragon with his right hand and whispered softly,

"I'm fine, just a funny little witch."

"The direction she went was being watched by several poachers who were panicking. That guy was watching her."

The fire dragon snorted, which was to express the emotion that he knew.

But she didn't fly away either,

There would be a battle in that direction, and she wanted to stay here to protect Pappy.

Secondly, since she can't breathe fire here, it won't be smooth for her to hunt, so she might as well stay here.

At this time, Pappy was reciting a few names mentioned by the little witch.

Because Pappy also thinks the little witch who just appeared is very interesting.

"Harry Potter? Ron Weasley? Draco Malfoy? And Rubeus Hagrid?"

"So who is she? She has shaggy, curly hair, some big front teeth, and looks like a little beaver, so could she be Hermione Granger?"

"Interesting, are the stories that guy told me based on reality?"

"That's so strange. Draco Malfoy seems to have a good relationship with Hermione Granger, but why did he become an enemy in his story?"

Hermione, who had no idea that she had just recognized the wrong person,

He continued walking eastward with ease,

It takes about fifteen minutes to walk out of this forest.

Arriving at the outskirts of Hogwarts,

Only when she truly returns to Hogwarts does Hermione know exactly where she is in time.

Then she would go to Professor McGonagall,

I had to tell her exactly what was going on with the time turner.

After all, Professor McGonagall helped her write a letter to the Ministry of Magic to apply for this time turner.

And Hermione also heard from Raven that the Time Turner is managed by the Ministry of Magic's top secret agency, the Department of Mysteries - the Time Chamber.

The time turner has malfunctioned. No matter who is responsible, it must be reported to the Ministry of Magic first.

Hermione relaxed and was able to think.

While thinking about things, I walked on the path of the Forbidden Forest,

After she crossed a giant tree root that jutted a foot above the ground,

The sound of quarreling not far ahead attracted her attention.

The voice sounded muffled, as if the speaker's mouth was covered with something.

But Hermione still noticed something strange in their timbres,

Because this is the voice of an adult,

In fact, the voices of students in sixth and seventh grade already sound almost like adults.

But the little wizard’s voice sounds clearer,

And the voices of these people are all hoarse and unpleasant.

If I had to describe it, it was the sound coming from a throat that had just burst into tears.

Something weird! There's something wrong with these people!

Hermione thought of this immediately, so she planned to sneak over and listen to what these people were talking about.

Finding a big tree, Hermione was able to touch the back of the tree with ease.

Holding a gun in his left hand and a wand in his right hand, his small face quietly poked his head out of the blind spot of the group of people.

[Sure enough, these people are all wearing masks! 】

Hermione thought,

In front of me was a group of about a dozen wizards and... goblins?

Their clothes are casual and not uniform.

The only thing they have in common is that whether they are wizards, witches or goblins, their faces are covered with masks.

At first glance, he doesn't look like a good person.

Hermione made up her mind,

To hear what these guys want to do,

With the thing in her left hand, Hermione was not at all inferior to this rabble.

So Hermione put her little head back again,

Continue to listen to these people’s conversations,

Now that she was close, she could finally hear clearly what these strange wizards with masks and mute voices were planning to do.

The first person to speak was a hoarse, high-pitched female voice.

"I support Gray Wolf's proposal. As long as we hold those little wizards hostage, that guy won't dare to take action easily."

But another weird, clingy, slightly unhuman voice retorted,

"Do you really think he cares? The ancient demon doesn't care about anything when he wants to kill people! Wait! Did I just say...ah, they are coming! Save me!"

"call out"

It seemed like something appeared out of thin air from behind, causing a lot of chaos.

Screams and wails, spells recited, and frightened sobs could be heard endlessly.

And when Hermione waited for the chaos to disappear and then quietly poked her head out,

That group of people no longer had the same heroic spirit as before.

We sat together sighing,

The forest floor was smeared with blood, and several goblins had disappeared.
