Chapter 98 The Tomb in the Forbidden Forest
After Hagrid got the news from the centaurs, he quickly came to the territory occupied by the acromantula.

Here, as the horsemen said, it has been burned to a white ground.

Remnants of dust were everywhere, and Hagrid could only see a few burnt spiderlings in the fringes.

He fell to the ground in a daze, muttering to himself.

"How did it become like this?"

The horse man beside him also said angrily.

"We also want to know who set the fire! The fire almost spread to our tribe. If the wind direction hadn't changed halfway, our camp would be burned empty now!"

Hagrid was in a daze for a long time before recovering from the ashes of the acromantula.

After returning to his hut, he immediately found Harry and the others.

It was only when Harry and the others found out that the group of acromantulas were all burned to death.

But then Ron thought of something, he secretly tugged at Harry's sleeve, and whispered.

"Do you remember what Professor Forrest said when we left the Forbidden Forest?"

Harry recalled a little, and remembered what Sherlock said at that time.

"Professor, he said that the horsemen will fight the fire, and he will settle accounts with these spiders in the future, because their venom can be sold for money?"

"Then, now that the horsemen have not put out the fire, and the spiders are gone, the professor can't make a fortune."

Harry and Ron were speechless as soon as they breathed.

Although there is an element of accident in it, the main responsibility lies with Sherlock's crow's mouth.

But things have already happened, and they can't change anything.

And based on how Aragog indulged its descendants to attack them that night, Harry and the others felt that there was nothing wrong with the acromant being burned to death like this.

So, after that, Harry told Hagrid exactly what happened at that time.

Tell him that Sherlock set the fire to take them away, but the last fire burned all the acromants to death, which they didn't expect.

After Hagrid finished listening, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, he sighed and shook his head.

"I don't blame you, this is the revenge Aragog deserves. Besides, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be cleared of my guilt and released by the Ministry of Magic so soon."

Harry and the others could see Hagrid's sadness, after all, he and Aragog had been in love for more than 50 years.

But they never understood Hagrid's feelings towards dangerous animals.

Those creatures were harmless to him, but that was only to him.

In the eyes of others, dangerous creatures are dangerous creatures, and there is no way to change their inherently brutal nature.

After the crisis of the basilisk was resolved, the mandrake cultivated by Professor Sprout quickly matured.

Snape used them as an antidote, and the four petrified students returned to normal.

There is less than a month before the end of this semester, and Hogwarts students have also entered the final stage of this year's final exam.

Sherlock has confirmed the practical content of the Defense Against the Dark Arts exam, but he still has to continue writing the test papers for the theory exam.

Fortunately, he has already completed most of it before, and now he only needs to spend a little more time to complete the rest.

So near the end of the period, his time was relaxed.

One morning three days before the final exams, Dumbledore asked the ghost to call Sherlock to the headmaster's office.

There is not only Dumbledore alone, but also a witch in a black robe and a hood.

Sherlock couldn't see her face clearly, but she could tell she was a witch by the long silver-gray hair peeking out from under her hat.

"You don't have class this morning, right? Sherlock." Dumbledore asked.

Sherlock nodded.

Originally, he had fifth grade and seventh grade classes today, but these two grades had already taken the Wizarding Level Examination held by the Ministry of Magic this year, so their classes ended early.

"Then please entertain me, Ms. Silke from the German Ministry of Magic. She is here to visit the grave in the Forbidden Forest. Take her to Hagrid, and he will take her to the tomb in the Forbidden Forest."

The witch named Silk seemed a little taciturn. When Dumbledore introduced her, she didn't make a sound, but stood up from the chair and nodded slightly to Sherlock.

Since Sherlock had nothing to do today, he agreed, and he took the Silk lady out of the principal's office and headed for Hagrid's cabin.

"My name is Sherlock Forrest."

On the way, Sherlock simply introduced himself, and there was no other communication between the two.

All the way to Hagrid's hut, Hagrid hid something in a panic when he saw them knocking on the door and walking in.

Vaguely, Sherlock saw what seemed to be some kind of animal's egg.

Suddenly, he asked suspiciously.

"What strange creature are you hatching again, Hagrid?"

Hagrid's face obviously seemed to be hiding something, he stammered and explained.

"No, there is no Sherlock." Then he saw Silk following behind Sherlock, and changed the subject, "Oh, I almost forgot, this year is the day when Ms. Silk came to visit the grave, please Miss Jin, would you like a cup of tea?"

Ms. Silk shook her head, her voice was a bit cold.

"Thank you, but no need."

"Okay, please let me prepare."

As Hagrid said, he pulled Sherlock aside, clasped his hands together and begged, "Help Sherlock, I have other important things to do now, help me take this lady Silk to visit the grave in the Forbidden Forest Come on, let Yaya lead the way for you."

Sherlock secretly glanced at the black-robed witch with some doubts.

"She comes to Hogwarts to visit the grave every year?"

"Yes, it has been going on for almost ten years."

"Who is she? She actually put her grave in the Forbidden Forest?"

"It seems to be her father and her father's friends. I don't know exactly what, but Dumbledore promised to bury them in the Forbidden Forest." Hagrid continued to beg, "Do me a favor, Xia Locke, I really have something else to do today."

Sherlock looked at Hagrid seriously.

"I know you like these big magical creatures. Hagrid, but I still want to remind you that you may be friends with them, but it doesn't mean everyone can."

Hagrid said guiltily.

"I'll be measured."

Sherlock couldn't do anything about him, Hagrid was just like that.

He agreed to Hagrid's request, and led Fang Fang into the Forbidden Forest with Ms. Silke from the German Ministry of Magic.

The location of the tomb was deep in the Forbidden Forest. Yaya led them to walk for about four to ten minutes before finally arriving at the destination.

On the way, Sherlock had no communication with this witch, she didn't want to talk, and he wasn't in the mood to chat.

There were indeed two graves at the place where Ya Ya brought them, and there were tombstones standing in front of the tombs.

Out of curiosity, Sherlock glanced at the name on the tombstone.

The name on one is "Eddie Butler" and the name on the other is "John Watson".

Seeing this name, Sherlock couldn't help complaining silently in his heart. He really didn't expect that there was actually someone named John Watson in the wizarding world.

So why isn't the tombstone next to Sherlock Holmes?

Ms. Silk took out two bouquets of flowers from nowhere and placed them in front of the two graves. Then she put her hands together and prayed quietly.

Sherlock wisely stayed away from here, studying a Bowtruckle idly by the side.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew off the hood on Silk's head, and Sherlock inadvertently saw her delicate face and the ribbon covering her eyes.

Silk put the hood back on silently, and Sherlock turned his head away as if nothing had happened.

They only stayed in front of this cemetery for less than an hour before returning the same way and leaving the Forbidden Forest.

After tying Fang in front of Hagrid's hut, Silk bowed slightly to Sherlock.

"Thank you."

Sherlock waved his hand, indicating that it was a matter of little effort, and watched the witch leave Hogwarts.

He looked at her back and muttered softly.

"That's weird, don't you even use your eyes to see the road?"

For Sherlock, this incident was just a daily incident, and he didn't take it seriously, because the final exams for this year were about to begin.

No matter how loose the usual study life is, the students in Hogwarts will get nervous when the final exam is approaching.

And on the day of the exam, the practical exam for the second grade.

Sherlock also changed the Tom cat who failed the challenge when they first started school, and used it as the content of the practical exam for the second grade.

Of course, the final score is based on their specific performance, not whether they can beat Tom.

After all, it was too difficult for the second graders to defeat Tom.

But during the exam, Hermione gave Sherlock a surprise.

Although she lay in the school hospital for a few days and missed some defense lessons, she still defeated Tom through the flexible application of the transformation spell, becoming the first student to defeat Tom in the entire second grade.

So Sherlock directly gave her an O evaluation.

They were also very excited after the fifth and seventh grade wizarding exams.

Before the grade exam, Sherlock specially gave them a few guessing lessons based on the habits of the Ministry of Magic questioners in previous years.

The senior students reported that Sherlock's predictions were very accurate, almost 80% of the questions were guessed by him.

Some students even hugged his arm and cried loudly, saying that their hard work was not in vain this time, and that they would definitely get an O rating in the Defense Against the Dark Arts exam, which would serve him well for his future ideal of becoming an Auror. foreshadowing.

Sherlock, who has been a professor for a year, is also very pleased to see their current performance.

　Small theater before the final of the s competition:
　　Muggle reporter: "Mr. Forrest, as a veteran fan of lol, what do you think of the S11 finals?"

　　Sherlock sneered and said: "Does it need to be said? EDG stopped here! DK is invincible as the last world champion! They will continue their invincible posture! EDG has no hope of defeating them! I will be crushed straight home tonight!"
