Chapter 83 Hogwarts Closing School
Everyone in the hut was stunned by Dumbledore's words.

Even Harry and Ron, who were hiding in the corner, knew how much shock it would cause in the wizarding world if the school was really closed.

Even 50 years ago, when some students died because of this, Hogwarts still hesitated whether to close the school, but now Dumbledore actually asked for the closure of the school.

And just three days later!

As the Minister of Magic, Fudge is more aware of what it means if Hogwarts is closed.

He stared at Dumbledore dumbfounded, and his words were a little awkward.

"Dumbledore, do you know what it means if the school is really closed?"

Of course, the consequences that Fudge thought of were much more comprehensive than what Harry and the others could think of.

The biggest impact of the closure of the school must be Dumbledore's own reputation.

Because it means that he has no way to control the situation in the school. Those reporters in the Daily Prophet who want to make some big news will definitely do their best to write some headlines that are powerful enough to attract attention.

The wizards in the British magic world must be very dissatisfied with this, and this sentiment will naturally be transferred to the Ministry of Magic, thinking that the current magic government has not done anything.

It doesn't matter whether the reputation of the Ministry of Magic is affected or not, the key is that Fudge will also be labeled as "incompetent" for this.

Otherwise, if only Dumbledore's own reputation was damaged, then he would be very happy to see it.

Hagrid was so moved that he thought that Dumbledore was using this to threaten Fudge so that he would not be taken away.

"Sir, you don't have to do this. I can go with them. I believe you will find out the matter soon."

Dumbledore shook his head slightly.

"I'm not doing it for you alone, Hagrid, and I'm not using this as a condition to threaten Fudge. If you really think there is something wrong with Hagrid, you can take him away. But regardless of whether Hagrid was taken away, Huo Gwartz will be closed in three days, and I will tell every student and teacher tomorrow morning that it is safest for them to go home now."

Fudge's eyes widened. He didn't have the courage to threaten Dumbledore to change his mind, so he could only plead.

"Not to this extent, Dumbledore. Besides, even if you want to close the school, the school board will not agree. They won't just let you close Hogwarts!"

"Lucius Malfoy's son was also one of the students who were attacked. I think he should understand better than me. The only way to take his son home and wait for the mandrake to mature is to prepare the antidote. insurance treatment."

Dumbledore's words blocked all the retreats for himself and Fudge. His attitude was very tough, and there was no room for maneuver at all.

In the end, Fudge failed to make Dumbledore give up the idea of ​​​​closing the school, and similarly, he did not give up his decision to take Hagrid away.

Even if the closure of the school would damage his reputation, he could use Hagrid to make up for it, to show that the Ministry of Magic wasn't doing nothing.

Before being taken away, Hagrid suddenly said inexplicably while standing at the door.

"Follow the spiders in the Forbidden Forest, they will show you everything you want to know."

Fudge looked at him in astonishment.

"what are you saying?"

Hagrid put on his overcoat, and he continued without answering the question.

"Yaya is very timid, it needs someone to accompany it."

"If you have time to care about your dog, you should first care about yourself." Fudge didn't see Hagrid's real intentions, so he muttered, and took Hagrid away in a bad mood.

Dumbledore stayed at the end, and before closing the door of the hut, he pointedly said something to the air.

"Sometimes, maybe adults are not as miserable as you think."

It wasn't until all the movement disappeared that Harry and Ron came out from the cloak.

"Professor Dumbledore was talking to us at the end?" Ron asked uncertainly.

Harry noticed Dumbledore's gaze.

"He just glanced at us, the professor should have spotted us."

"But why did he decide to close the school! What if Hermione is closed? Just send her home like this? Her parents will go crazy!" Ron said violently.

Harry calmed down at this time, he didn't know why Dumbledore insisted on closing the school, and the time was set in three days.

But he clearly understood Hagrid's last message to them before leaving.

If the truth of the matter can be found out before Hogwarts is closed, there is still time.

"Hagrid told us to take Fangs and enter the Forbidden Forest. Follow the spiders and we will learn the truth!"

Harry and Ron looked at each other, they already had a decision in their minds.

Putting the invisibility cloak on the table in the house, you won't need this clothes when you enter the Forbidden Forest. They walked out of Hagrid's hut. Hagrid's hound Fang was lying on the ground whimpering. Seeing that his master was captured.

Harry took Fang's rope and patted its hind legs.

"Take us for a walk inside, Fangya."

Fangya shook the hair on his body, as if he understood Harry's words, he walked ahead and led the two of them into the Forbidden Forest.

"Fluorescent flashes."

Harry used the wand illuminating spell, barely illuminating a space with a radius of more than two meters, but Ron didn't dare to use the magic spell. His wand hadn't been repaired yet, and he was afraid that the illuminating spell would explode if it didn't work.

They found the figures of those little spiders on the ground, and then followed the trajectory of these spiders to the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

Fang ran around them, sniffing roots and leaves all the way, and by the light of Harry's wand, they followed the spider that continued to crawl along the path for about twenty minutes.

No one spoke, but listened carefully to see if there were any other sounds besides the snapping of branches and the rustling of leaves.

The trees were growing thicker, the stars overhead were no longer visible, and Harry's wand was glimmering alone in the vast darkness when they noticed that the spider guides had strayed off the path.

Hagrid warned them not to deviate from the forest path before, but at this time Hagrid was probably imprisoned in Azkaban's cell, and they could only continue to follow the spider.

After walking forward for about half an hour, Harry and Ron's clothes were ripped apart by low branches and thorny vines. Just as Ron was panting, he signaled to Harry that he had to stop and rest for a while. .

A cold and familiar voice suddenly sounded behind them.

"Why are you here?"
