Professor of Pharmacy at Hogwarts

After a special potion lesson, the little wizards walked out of the classroom in a daze, feeling that their worldview had been subverted.

During dinner, the little wizards from other grades watched the performance of the freshmen and snickered secretly.

They can easily relate to the performance of last year's freshmen.

"Ginny, what's wrong with you?"

Ron asked as he poked the distracted Ginny.

Ginny's eyes were dull and her whole body was stiff. She mechanically scooped out the soup with a spoon and almost stuffed the spoon into her nose several times.

"Professor Alexis must be telling Muggle stories again."

Hermione continued from the side.

Harry nodded in agreement and pointed out the new students who behaved similarly to Ginny to Ron.

"I don't know why he's telling this - they're all frightened and think the Muggles are going to attack us at any moment."

"I think there's nothing wrong with what Mr. Alexis said." Ron disagreed with Harry's view. "Wizards can easily become arrogant. Having more power than others makes it easier for them to become arrogant. "

"This is a wake-up call."

"Wake up to what?"

"What are you discussing!"

The discussion between Harry and Ron lasted only one round before George and Fred suddenly interrupted.

The twins sang in harmony, you said one line and I took the next line, and they cooperated perfectly.

"We plan to explore the Forbidden Forest at night."

George suddenly lowered his voice and whispered.

"I heard that a werewolf broke into the Forbidden Forest."

Fred followed.

George: "Hagrid is responsible for catching them."

Fred: "There is also a tribe of centaurs to cooperate."

"But they spent the whole holiday catching the werewolf and they didn't catch the werewolf."

"Hagrid said it himself during the Care of Magical Creatures class."

"So we're going to check out the situation tonight."

As soon as the twins finished singing, they saw Harry and Ron's eyes flashing with excitement, and they shook their heads quickly.

"No, no, no, this is a secret activity that only students in fourth grade and above can participate in. You can't go."

"Yes, the Forbidden Forest is still too dangerous for you."

The twins looked at each other, stood up and left.

"Don't tell Percy this."

Finally, they warned.

Harry stared at the twins' backs with envy until they blended into the crowd. Soon, he discovered that what the twins said might be true.

Because there was a small group of senior students gathered around the twins. They gathered together and whispered something quietly. From time to time, they looked up and looked around vigilantly to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.

After dinner, the four of Harry walked to the Gryffindor common room.

"What they say may be true."

Harry whispered to Ron.

"I saw several senior students getting together with them and plotting something."

"But George is right, the Forbidden Forest is indeed dangerous to us." Ron shook his head and said.

One of the biggest benefits of Ginny joining them was that Hermione finally no longer had to stare at them both.

For example, now, if it had been before and Ginny was away, the two of them would have been scolded by Hermione if they dared to discuss the topic of sneaking into the Forbidden Forest. But now, Hermione was chatting passionately with Ginny and didn't care about them at all.

"Maybe it's not that dangerous." Harry was very eager to visit the Forbidden Forest. "Blake mentioned to me that when they were students, they started going in and out of the Forbidden Forest in the first grade."

"It shows that maybe the Forbidden Forest is not that dangerous."

Ron was still hesitant. He felt that it was not good to violate the school rules so blatantly.

"Hi!"

Ron was still thinking about how to persuade Harry to give up the idea of ​​sneaking into the Forbidden Forest, when Malfoy suddenly came out from around the corner and jumped into him.

"What are you going to do?"

Ron asked with an ugly face.

Ginny and Hermione behind them also stopped talking and looked at Malfoy.

Malfoy's eyes lit up when he saw Hermione.

Valley</span> "Hello, Miss Granger."

Facing the smiling Malfoy, Hermione didn't buy it. She still hadn't forgotten the words Malfoy almost blurted out.

So Hermione snorted and turned her head to the side, deliberately trying to offend Malfoy.

Ron looked at Hermione and then at Malfoy. When he saw his eyes staring directly at Hermione, his eyes immediately became alert.

"Malfoy, what are you going to do?"

Ron asked loudly.

Rarely, there was a trace of hesitation on Malfoy's face, and he hesitated without making a sound.

"Let's go."

Ron said, pushing past Malfoy and continuing towards the entrance of the Gryffindor lounge. After their short stop, they had already attracted the attention of other students. Ron did not want to be looked at like a monkey.

"You can't go!"

In desperation, Malfoy stepped in front of Hermione.

"What the hell are you going to do?"

Hermione asked.

Malfoy looked around and raised his hand to pull Hermione to a place with fewer people, but Hermione dodged him.

"Just say it here. If there's nothing else, please don't waste my time."

Malfoy hesitated to speak.

Hermione glanced at Malfoy, walked around him, and left to join Ron and Harry.

"..."

Malfoy turned his head and reached out to hold Hermione, and finally looked at her back. He said nothing, but the look on his face changed.

"Look for third-year students who can go to Hogsmeade! Whoever can buy a picture of Mr. Alexis' chocolate frog, I'll pay 50 Galleons!"

Malfoy pulled over a follower and said fiercely.

……

"What does Malfoy want to do?"

Back in the Gryffindor common room, the four of them gathered in a corner and began to discuss Malfoy.

"I noticed something was wrong with him ever since we were on the Hogwarts Express."

Ron said.

"He has been quietly observing Hermione today, in Herbology class, in Greenhouse Three."

"Hermione, you better be careful."

Hermione rolled her eyes when she looked at Harry and Ron, who were discussing "Malfoy's conspiracy" together.

She didn’t want to join the “conspiracy theory” camp, so she quickly changed the topic.

"You two, don't sneak out."

Harry and Ron subconsciously glanced in the direction of the fireplace, where George, Fred, and two fifth-year students were discussing something together.

"I'm going to find Mr. Alexis right now!"

Seeing that Hermione really got up to walk out, Ron and Harry quickly stood up and stopped her.

"Okay, let's not go."

"I promise."

The two said quickly.

Hermione looked back and forth between the two of them suspiciously, and finally sat back down slowly.

"I'll be watching you two."

Harry and Ron looked at each other and nodded.

The four of them chatted together for a while, then got up and returned to their dormitories.

Soon, the curfew time in Hogwarts came and the dormitory fell into darkness. After a while, a slight snore sounded from Neville's bed.

"Harry."

Ron rolled over, facing Harry, and shouted softly.

"are you going?"

Harry opened his eyes, fumbled for his glasses and put them on. He was silent for a moment and got up from the bed.

Ron hesitated for a moment, then got up with Harry, and the two of them quietly slipped out of the dormitory.
