Late at night fell, and the weather tonight didn't seem to be very good. Not only was there no moon visible in the dark night sky, not even a few stars could be seen.

"Carlos, are you there?" A voice called from outside the utility room door, and Carlos quickly turned his attention away from the recipes in front of him.

"I'm here!" He picked up the book and walked out.

Standing in the dark corridor were Harry, Ron and Hermione. The three of them looked around vigilantly, fearing that the terrifying Hogwarts Castle administrator would run out.

"Don't worry." Carlos comforted: "His legs and feet are not very fast, and Mane can't get him away." He caught Xiu Xiu who was about to take away Ron's button.

"Then let's go quickly?" Hermione looked a little anxious: "It's already very late... It would be bad if we were expelled." "

"Yeah." Harry nodded and walked ahead.

"Expelled, she thinks too much." Ron complained to Carlos in a low voice: "How is such a trivial thing possible?"

Carlos chuckled at this and had no intention of discussing it with Ron. Grandma Tina had told him that it was not a good habit to talk about others behind their backs.

"Almost there..." Harry turned his head and said, they and Malfoy made an appointment to meet at the edge of the Forbidden Forest...

But...it was pitch black, and it seemed hard to see if anyone was there.

"Why do I feel like Malfoy isn't here?" Carlos whispered.

"Damn it, he couldn't have lied to us, right?" Ron frowned and said, "He's a liar."

"How many more minutes should we wait?" Harry thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he's too late..."

"No, no, no..." Hermione suddenly interrupted Harry: "We'd better leave quickly... Malfoy won't come."

"Why?" Ron was asking when suddenly he saw two small lights on the corner.

"That is?"

"A cat!" Carlos recognized it immediately: "It's Mrs. Norris, Mr. Filch's pet cat!"

"What's wrong, then he must be nearby!"

The four of them nodded and left here immediately.

"I didn't expect that Malfoy actually tricked me!" Ron muttered as he walked away: "He must have told Filch where we were!"

"He's a liar..." Harry nodded and looked extremely angry.

But soon, his anger could not last long, because there were slightly heavy footsteps behind them.

Along with the footsteps came the sound of the lantern rubbing.

"It's Filch!" Carlos said immediately, running ahead: "Let's get rid of him!"

Hogwarts ushered in an unquiet time in the middle of the night. Four running students were rushing back and forth between the floors, and behind them was an old man who was also running.

Filch didn't expect that what the Malfoy brat said was true. He didn't expect that he would be able to catch a few little wizards just after school started!

This made him feel a little excited, and the inexplicable desire to hunt seemed to be awakened, and even Mrs. Loris beside him ran faster.

It's clear that it's also called upon by the hunting atmosphere.

…………

"Huh!" Chief Carlos closed the wooden door behind him in one breath.

"It's safe for now." He looked at his breathless friends and said, "It will take a while before he can be found."

"Or he might not be found."

Ron and Harry nodded tiredly, then sat down on the mess.

"Where is this?" Hermione asked, looking around curiously.

"I don't know." Carlos shook his head. He didn't have time to pay attention to his position when he was running away. After all, it would be nice to escape...

Especially when he's still holding a book and a Niffler.

"Woooooo!" Mane yelled, standing on Carlos's shoulder.

"What do you mean by a strange smell?" Carlos looked at Xiuxiu in surprise: "I didn't smell anything."

"Woooooo!"

While Carlos and Sniff were communicating, Hermione seemed a little anxious.

"Maybe we should leave." She looked at the three of them and said, "It's getting late."

"If we go back too late, we will be expelled!"

"No, no, no..." Carlos quickly grabbed Hermione: "If we go out now, we will bump into Filch."

"I've been fined and given confinement."

Carlos' words made Harry and Ron nod: "Let's wait until Filch is gone."

After listening to the words of the three people, Hermione could only nod. She was indeed a little anxious... But as soon as she thought about being criticized by the teacher and professor, Hermione felt nervous.

"If you are expelled...that would be worse than death!"

"..." Ron looked at Harry and Carlos and rolled his eyes, as if to say why he wanted to drag her along.

"Pap, tap." The sound of footsteps came, and several people immediately held their breath.

The little wizards didn't dare to show their anger and hid behind a pile of debris. They only dared to look at the door with their eyes exposed.

"Click." The door was pushed open, and the four of them immediately lowered their heads. Only Carlos dared to raise his head slightly and look at the door.

"Huh?" Looking at what came in, Carlos was stunned, because it was not a person, but a squirrel standing here.

He was looking at them curiously.

This squirrel... Carlos thought about it and immediately got the impression that it was the squirrel he saw when he was cleaning the utility room last time, the squirrel that ran away.

"It's a squirrel!" Carlos said, then slowly stood up and bent slightly to look at it curiously.

"Don't be afraid... don't be afraid..." Carlos comforted him. He let the squirrel run away last time... This time he must catch it and make sweet and sour pork...

Carlos has not forgotten his last plan... It just so happens that his cooking skills have improved in the past few days, so let's experiment with this squirrel?

"Chi Chi Chi?"

"Don't be afraid..." Carlos stretched out his hand and the three people behind him said nothing, "I'll do it..." He mouthed to the three of them.

"I won't hurt you..." Carlos said softly: "After all, you are a cute squirrel...an interesting squirrel..."

Gradually, Carlos got closer to the squirrel. He could see that the squirrel was not against him and was even a little close to him.

This made Carlos very grateful. He gently reached out his hand and placed it on the squirrel's head. Its fur was very smooth, which showed that it loved to be clean... and took care of itself frequently.

The meat quality of such a squirrel should not be bad...

Carlos picked up the squirrel and touched its head, then brought it to a few people.

"How cute," Hermione said with a nod, not even in the mood to pay attention to Mane who was taking out a steel quill from her pocket.

"It's indeed cute." Harry nodded, and he reached out his hand and carefully touched the squirrel's head.

"jijiji!"

"You're hurting it." Carlos reminded: "You have to touch it like this..." As he said that, Carlos rubbed the squirrel's head skillfully.

Just by looking at it, several people could tell that the squirrel was feeling great.

"Why are you here so late at night?" Carlos asked with a smile, "Shouldn't you be sleeping?"

"Jeep, ji ji ji!"

"What?" Carlos was stunned for a moment: "You said there is an old man running here?"

"Are you avoiding him and his cat?"

"Pap tap tap tap..." Just as he was speaking, Carlos heard footsteps.

"No, it's Filch!" Carlos quickly pulled a few people and ran into the house.

There was a wooden door in front of him. If he hid inside the wooden door, Filch would definitely not be able to catch him.

"What's wrong!" Carlos frowned when he saw the wooden door in front of him: "The door is locked!"

"Get out of the way!" Hermione said, raising her wand and walking forward. She stretched out her hand to push Ron away, and then swung her wand.

"Araho Cave is open!"

"Clap!"

The door lock clicked, and Carlos quickly opened the wooden door and got in.

"Phew...it should be safe..." Carlos looked at the trio and nodded.

"Wait, why is there a strange smell?" Ron frowned and sniffed lightly.

Carlos also frowned and looked around, and then he saw something incredible.

"Above Merlin!"
