Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Nydia and Draco held Fang, looking for silvery white blood stains in the forest with the help of handheld lamps and moonlight. Except for the pool of blood they saw when they first entered the forest, they found no trace of blood.

"You come and hold it!" Draco wanted to hand over Yaya's traction rope to Nidia, but Yaya retreated behind Draco. "What's going on? Is it afraid of you?"

"Maybe it's because of Yi Wan!" Nitya smiled awkwardly.

"Ivan?" Draco also sent a cat that had never seen Nydia.

"Yes, it's my cat. I've taken it to Hagrid's hut several times. Yaya is quite afraid of it. Maybe it's because I have some of Iwan's scent on me, so... you know a dog's nose can More sensitive than humans," Nydia explained to Draco.

"Okay, what a coward." Draco had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​letting Nydia hold it, and continued to hold Fang on his own.

"Why do you think someone would hurt a unicorn? Although I have never seen a real unicorn, books describe it very beautifully." Nidia was still looking forward to them finding the injured unicorn. Of the horned beast.

"I don't know, maybe I want to get something from it after all!"

"What can we get from a unicorn?" Nidia suddenly thought, "By the way, didn't we use its horn and tail hair in potions class! I remember that there was a unicorn in my wand. The hair of the horned beast.”

"But there's no point in killing it just for this," Draco said.

"Maybe the unicorn was not willing to give it, so he used violence to get it." Nidia began to use her imagination to restore the truth.

"Are you stupid? It's just for the horns and tail hair. You can buy them in the market and the price is not high. Why go to all the trouble."

"That's right! Why is that? I really hope we can find the injured unicorn." Nidia couldn't understand how anyone could bear to attack such a beautiful creature.

"I really hope we don't find it." Draco said sullenly.

"Why? Don't you want to save it?"

"Then we have to be able to save it. Although I don't know much about unicorns, I have heard that killing unicorns is a serious sin and will be cursed. No creature will do this for a little selfish gain. If it is done, then this creature must have made a desperate move. It must be so crazy that it can do anything. This is very dangerous. The school should notify the Ministry of Magic of this matter, and It's not for us first-year students to handle it," Draco said seriously. "So I hope we don't really bump into each other, we just pretend to walk here for a while and then go back."

"I didn't know it was so serious." Nydia was a little surprised after hearing Draco's words, and she unconsciously thought of Quirrell in her mind. Could it be Quirrell who is desperate? Unicorn, Philosopher's Stone? What's the connection?

"Don't worry." Draco thought his words had frightened Nydia. "I noticed there was no trace of unicorn blood on our side as I came along the road. I think our direction must be wrong. And even if we find it, A unicorn doesn’t mean that the creature that hurt it is right next to it.”

"I hope they don't meet each other." Nydia began to hope in her heart that things would be like what Draco said, that everyone would just wander around in the forest and then go back.

"How are you doing lately? Is Pansy still looking for trouble for you?" Draco asked Nydia. He knew that many people were gossiping about Nydia because of the punishment.

"It's okay! Pansy said a few harsh words at the beginning, but there were no more after that." Nidia has now turned her attention to preparing for the exam, and is not as concerned about those harsh words as she was at the beginning. Care.

"If she troubles you again, just come and tell me..." Draco stopped suddenly, "Did you hear anything?"

"What's the sound?" Nidia also stopped and listened carefully.

"There's movement, something is coming towards us." Draco said, taking out his wand, spreading his arms, and blocking Nydia behind him.

"Should we send a signal to Hagrid?" Nydia was a little scared, holding the wand tightly in her hand, ready to send a signal at any time.

"Wait a minute, I'm not sure what it is yet." Draco stared at the direction of the sound.

The sound was getting closer and closer, and Nidia held her breath nervously. The thin and broken sound was like the footsteps of many people, and Yaya also began to growl in the direction of the sound.

In the dark jungle, a huge figure slowly appeared in front of them. It turned out to be a giant spider that was larger than a human. What's more, this spider was different from common spiders in that it had as many as eight eyes.

Nitya was frightened by the scene in front of her and immediately sent out the red signal without thinking.

Yaya barked at the spider, seeming to warn the spider not to come close, and the giant spider actually didn't come closer, but it had no intention of leaving, and it just kept in a stalemate with Yaya. Nydia and Draco stood nervously behind Fang. They didn't dare to run, for fear of causing the giant spider to chase them. They just hoped that Hagrid would come over quickly.

She didn't know how much time had passed. Nidia just felt that time was as long as standing still. When Hagrid finally appeared, Nidia just wanted to cheer.

"Go away, go away, don't get close to these children." Hagrid looked a little panicked when he saw the giant spider. He hurried forward and waved his arms to drive the spider away, and the spider actually backed away obediently. .

"Is it the murderer who hurt the unicorn?" Nydia asked Hagrid.

"No, it didn't do it. It knew me. It smelled Fang's scent and thought it was me, so it came over." Hagrid explained to them, "Are you all okay?"

Nidia shook her head repeatedly, "It didn't even come close to us. Yaya stopped it."

"It's okay. Come with me! Go and meet the two of them." Hagrid led the way and took the two of them in the direction he came from just now.

Following Hagrid, Nidia felt much more at ease, and her nervous mood had calmed down a lot. But now when I think back to the giant spider just now, I still feel weird. How can a spider grow to such a big size?

"Do spiders have a sense of smell?" Nidia suddenly thought that she didn't see that spider with a nose! He asked Draco in a low voice.

"How did I know? I'm not interested in studying that ugly thing." Draco said angrily. Why should he care about whether spiders have a sense of smell?

"Thank you just now." Recalling the scene just now, Draco always protected himself behind him.

"What are you talking about? I'm a boy, so I can't hide behind a girl like you!" Draco said.

"What are you two muttering about? Come on, follow me." Hagrid urged the two people who were talking behind him. "Um...can you do me a favor?"

"What's the matter, Hagrid?" Nidia didn't know how she could help Hagrid at this time.

"It's just...it's about that spider just now. Can you guys not tell others about what you saw?" Hagrid looked a little embarrassed.

"What? Is this your pet again?" Draco said coldly.

"No...not really, they just live in this forest." Hagrid said, "Their venom is good for making potions. I'm worried that if the news spreads, people will cause trouble for me."

"We won't tell," Nydia said, "right, and Draco won't tell either."

"I'm not interested in talking about this ugly thing." Draco said dismissively.

"Thank you." Hagrid smiled happily and continued to lead the way.

After Hagrid turned around, Draco immediately whispered in Nydia's ear: "He lied."

"I know, but he just saved us, so there's no need to expose him." Nidia said softly. She didn't find it strange at all that Hagrid would keep such a dangerous and strange creature.

They continued to walk behind Hagrid, and soon they met up with Harry and Hermione. When Harry and Hermione saw Nydia, they immediately approached her and nervously asked what happened. Nydia lied about everything. It was just a false alarm, nothing happened.
