Hogwarts Fantastic Beasts in the Stomach

Chapter 81 The Death of the Unicorn

"Hagrid, you mean a unicorn was killed?!" Carlos looked at Hagrid in surprise. He originally came here today to see the dragon egg and chat with Hagrid. The last two sentences, but unexpectedly, as soon as he walked into the house, Haige was muttering about what happened last night.

"Shh!" Hagrid quickly covered Carlos's mouth: "Don't let others hear it, Dumbledore won't let me talk nonsense."

"Then you still tell me?" Carlos blinked and said, "Could it be some other animal?"

"If they are really animals, I wouldn't mind helping you tame (cook) them."

"No, no, no, it's not an animal. I swear on Merlin's beard." Hagrid looked quite serious. He looked at the dragon eggs in the stove and said, "The throats of those unicorns have been bitten, and the contents of their bodies are all broken." The blood has also been drained.”

"Throat and blood..." Carlos just started thinking when he suddenly caught a word Hagrid said: "Those?" He looked at Hagrid doubtfully: "More than one unicorn was..."

"Ahem." Hagrid coughed awkwardly a few times and then said, "I shouldn't have said so much."

"If I had a secret, I would definitely not tell it to you, Hagrid." Carlos curled his lips and said, "You are just like a badass bird who wants to tell you everything you want to know."

Hagrid scratched his head in embarrassment and drank a gulp of the mead on the table.

"Is it possible that it's a vampire?" Carlos guessed, "I heard that there are vampires in the Forbidden Forest."

"Uh, who said that?" Hagrid shook his head: "There are no vampires in the Forbidden Forest, we only have werewolves."

"Hermione told me." Carlos answered Hagrid's question, and began to think about what it could be if it wasn't a vampire...

A monster that likes to suck blood...can't be a Jew...well, Carlos was thinking about the possibility of it being a human being?

After all, he had heard of some perverts who liked to suck blood.

But those people should also be sucking human blood, right?

What does it mean to like unicorn blood?

Carlos scratched his head in thought, and he thought that unicorn blood seemed to have some special functions.

But he couldn't remember the specific function for a while, so he would go back and read Grandpa Newt's book.

So, Carlos scratched his head and expressed his guess: "Is it possible that it was because that person wanted to use the unicorn's blood for something?"

"What is the use of unicorn blood?" Hagrid said incomprehensively: "Isn't it just that it can prolong life? It even has the side effect of being cursed."

"Isn't extending life a great effect?" Carlos said. He couldn't help but think of Nicoléme and the Philosopher's Stone: "Just think about it, Mr. Nicoléme has lived for many years relying on the Philosopher's Stone. .”

"The Philosopher's Stone..." Carlos' words made Hagrid choke. It was obvious that he thought about the Philosopher's Stone, which made him afraid to speak for a while. He was afraid that he would tell everything once he opened his mouth.

After hesitating for a long time, Hagrid nodded and said: "You are right, unicorn blood is indeed useful."

Carlos was very happy to see Hagrid agreeing with him. He raised his eyebrows and picked up the honey tea on the table and took two sips.

"So, when did this happen?"

"yesterday."

"Pfft!" Carlos didn't hold back for a moment and spat a mouthful of honey tea on Hagrid's face.

"Oh, cough...cough, sorry, sorry..."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Mane, who had been playing with the gold coins, also looked at Carlos with a dissatisfied look, and all the honey tea sprayed on him.

"Sorry Hagrid, sorry Mane." Carlos apologized quickly and then wiped Mane's hair with his sleeve.

Hagrid shook his head helplessly, then wiped his face with his arm: "Why are you so excited?"

"Ahem, no..." Carlos said carefully, "I... met Professor Snape last night."

"He went to the Forbidden Forest."

"..." Hagrid was silent for a few seconds and then looked at Carlos in confusion: "Then what?"

"..." Carlos slapped his forehead: "Don't you think it might be Professor Snape?"

"Ah?" Hagrid was stunned for a moment. He shook his head with a smile and then patted Carlos's head: "It can't be Professor Snape's. He was the one who found the body last night."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Mane scratched his head and expressed his question.

"Yes, Mane is right." Carlos nodded and looked at Hagrid: "Some criminals like to be reporters to disguise themselves as passers-by!"

"Sounds a little unreliable."

"This is mentioned in "The Detective Collection of Sherlock Holmes"!" Carlos immediately stood up from his chair and said, "He is the most famous detective in the Muggle world!"

"Then..." Hagrid thought for a while and said, "But Dumbledore asked Snape to patrol the Forbidden Forest every night...so it can't be him."

"Hmm!" Carlos was silent. Dumbledore trusted him so much... Then Professor Snape was definitely not the one who killed the unicorn... Then, who could it be?

Carlos couldn't help but think of a person in his mind. He might be cruel, cunning, good at deceiving, or he might have an ulterior motive... But, that shouldn't be the case, right?

That's right, Carlos was thinking of Professor Rosier. When he saw Professor Rosier that day, he looked like he was not in good health... and his expression was very serious.

Is it possible that Professor Rozier chose to do this in order to cure his own illness or save his family?

And he is also a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, so he must know something about magical animals like unicorns!

"Hagrid, can you let me see the unicorn's body?" Carlos thought for a while and asked.

"Of course... just don't be afraid." Hagrid nodded, stood up and opened the door of the hut.

He and Carlos came to the small yard behind the house. There were already three hills there. Counting the one in front of them that had not yet been filled in, there were four hills in total.

In other words, a total of four unicorns were killed.

The body of the unicorn that was killed yesterday lay quietly on the ground.

"Merlin..." Carlos looked at the snow-white unicorn lying motionless on the ground, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.

What a beautiful animal... Carlos bent down and gently touched the unicorn's body and horn... This was the first time Carlos had seen magical animals without any thought of cooking them.

"It's so abominable..." Carlos said, "That guy..." He stood up, gave Hagrid a brief greeting and left the yard.

He was going to find Professor Rosier and ask him carefully.
