HP: I just wanted to drop out of school, but I saved the world
Chapter 24: Burning the Forbidden Forest (1)
After that day, Draco and Jian Yu returned to their previous state.
Treat each other as if the other does not exist.
This had no effect on Jian Yu, she was even happy to have some free time.
However, the little Slytherin snakes saw that they had a conflict and began to isolate her again.
Thanks Merlin!
Jian Yu felt that nothing was more important than a quiet environment.
For someone who was about to drop out of school, she didn't want to have these inexplicable friendships with her classmates.
But after Draco mocked her and the protagonists, Harry and the other two began to trust her more.
"Detention is at eleven tonight," Harry complained to Jane with a gloomy face, "at Filch's."
It was well known that Filch was a person who loved torturing students. It was rumored that he once hung students by their wrists and hung them from the ceiling for several days. The trio would definitely not end up well if they fell into his hands.
Jian Yu shrugged, indicating that there was nothing he could do.
But she believed that with Harry's aura as the protagonist, he would be able to overcome the danger.
She herself had a big plan that she had been planning for several days and was waiting to be implemented.
She believed that after carrying out this plan, she would become a pariah in the eyes of all professors, and Dumbledore would definitely expel her.
That's right, she planned to break into the forbidden forest at night.
Challenge Dumbledore's ban on the opening ceremony.
She had researched Hagrid's night watch times, usually between ten and eleven at night.
Her plan was as follows:
Plan A: Arrive at Hagrid's hut at 11 o'clock, enter the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and just run into Hagrid on night patrol, so that he will be arrested on the spot and achieve the achievement of dropping out of school.
Plan B: If you don't meet Hagrid, you can set fire to the mountain and spend the rest of your life in jail, which will also achieve the achievement of dropping out of school.
With beautiful expectations for life after dropping out of school, Jian Yu arrived at Hagrid's Hut on time at 11 o'clock in the evening and walked along a narrow path into the Forbidden Forest.
The forest was deep and deserted. The trees gradually became denser from sparse at the outside, and occasionally the cries of unknown animals could be heard.
She walked for about half an hour, going deeper and deeper into the Forbidden Forest. The path was almost at the end, but she did not see Hagrid.
Oh no, I have to use the backup plan, she thought.
Using the illumination spell, she looked around.
There are many dead branches and leaves on the grass in the forbidden forest, which are very suitable for burning.
She stretched out her hand again to feel the direction of the wind - good, it was extending towards the interior of the Forbidden Forest.
"Incendio"
The dead branches on the ground caught fire, bright flames rose up, and gradually ignited the surrounding dead leaves.
But it had rained in the past few days and the leaves were still damp, so the burning speed was slower.
Jian Yu had to add a few more flaming flames.
This time a pine tree caught fire, it was rich in flammable oil, the flames spread along the crossed branches, ignited the neighboring cypress trees, one after another, the fire spread along the wind direction. The raging flames danced, as if a group of ferocious monsters were roaring, lighting up the night sky.
In the distance, the windows of Hogwarts Castle, which had originally turned dark, began to light up one by one.
"The Forbidden Forest is on fire!"
"Hurry up and notify Dumbledore!" A panicked voice came from somewhere.
Facing the raging fire, she smiled with satisfaction.
"Albus, the fire is just ahead!"
A few minutes later, Jian Yu heard the professors' anxious voices in the distance.
She decided to add some buffs to herself.
It is worthwhile to end my magical journey with a grand scene.
she thought.
With herself as the center and ten meters as the radius, she gracefully waved her wand, releasing blazing flames, drawing a circle around her. The golden-red flames rose into the air and surrounded her in the center.
Feeling that the color of the flame was too ordinary, she tapped the tip of her staff and cast a color-changing spell, changing the color of the flame to blue-purple.
Simply perfect.
I am such a scene-seeker!
She became proud.
......
Ten minutes ago, Hagrid took Harry, Ron and Hermione into the Forbidden Forest.
Because of Filch's "education", they were late for quite a while.
Hagrid held up the lantern high to illuminate the way ahead, and he warned the three people carefully:
"What we are going to do today is very dangerous. This week, one unicorn died and two others were seriously injured. We must try to find them and put them out of their suffering."
He pointed to a reflective mark on the ground and said to them:
"See that silvery-white flash on the ground? That's unicorn blood."
Then he popularized some knowledge of the Forbidden Forest to the three people:
"Unicorns are very pure, have strong magical powers, run very fast, and almost nothing can hurt them."
"In fact, there are many ancient magical animals in the Forbidden Forest. Werewolves, centaurs, and thestrals all live in it and occupy a habitat -"
He paused as they all heard something rustling across the fallen leaves, sounding like a wizard's robe dragging on the ground.
"Who's there!" he cried. "Put down your wand, I have a bow and arrow!"
A centaur creature walked out. From the waist up, it had a human body with red hair and beard, but the lower body was that of a horse with a red tail of the same color.
"Good evening, Hagrid."
The centaur called himself Ronan and was acquainted with Hagrid, but when Hagrid asked the guardian of the Forbidden Forest if he had noticed anything wrong, he answered in a cryptic way.
"Mars is very bright tonight." He looked up at the sky, staring at the twinkling stars, "Extremely bright."
Hagrid looked a little annoyed. He gave up asking and complained to Harry and the others, "They have the ability to tell fortunes. Although they have good intentions, their words are mysterious and you will never get the answer you want."
But he found that Harry's face was full of horror.
"What's wrong? Harry, don't be scared."
He thought Harry was frightened by this centaur and was about to pat him on the shoulder, but he saw the three children looking up in fear into the distance.
Now he understood why Ronan said that Mars was bright, because there was a fire in the Forbidden Forest!
......
The fire in the Forbidden Forest alarmed all the professors, and Hogwarts Castle was brightly lit.
A group of professors gathered in front of the castle gate.
"Albus!" Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick hurried over to Dumbledore, still in their dressing gowns. "What happened?"
Dumbledore looked serious, with a bad feeling lingering in his heart: "I don't know, but I think we have to hurry."
He was awakened by Fox's rapid cries. When he woke up, the golden-red phoenix had already flown to the Forbidden Forest and disappeared into the darkness.
At the edge of the Forbidden Forest, they ran into Hagrid and three frightened students.
Hagrid gasped, his hair becoming even more disheveled from the fire, and he stuttered:
"Professor Dumbledore, someone has set the Forbidden Forest on fire. I have to get the students out first—"
Dumbledore said solemnly: "I understand. The most urgent task is to put out the fire. Hagrid, please lead the way."
With several professors, he hurriedly headed deep into the forbidden forest. Using some unknown spell, they advanced very fast, almost like they were drifting in the air.
But halfway through the journey, a figure in a black cloak suddenly stumbled towards them. The scarf on his head was askew, and the cloak on his body had been burned by sparks, revealing his underwear through the holes.
After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Professor McGonagall took a deep breath:
"Quirinus?"
When Professor Quirrell saw them, he felt as if he had seen his savior. He leaned over and fell to the root of a big tree nearby, his face full of fear, and he gasped and shouted:
"Jane Yu! She-she-she-set the Forbidden Forest on fire!"
All the professors showed disbelief.
Professor Snape's mouth twitched, and he said coldly: "You'd better be responsible for what you said, Quirrell."
"Quirinus, you are not in good condition. Go back and rest first." Dumbledore said quickly, "We will go in and check the situation."
The group continued moving forward.
They walked around a tangled vine and came to the end of the narrow path.
Everyone gasped.
A thin figure appeared in front of everyone.
The girl stood in the blue fire, her black and green robe swaying slightly in the flames, her shoulder-length black straight hair blown by the breeze, revealing her pale cheeks reflected by the firelight, and the mahogany wand in her right hand was tapping her left hand from time to time.
Amid the anxious and shocked mood of everyone, she appeared comfortable and elegant, as if she was strolling in her own back garden in the fire.
Hearing the sound of people arriving, she turned around and gave the professors a polite smile.
It’s Jian Yu!
For a moment Dumbledore was stunned, standing there blankly, and even forgot to wave his wand to cast the spell.
This scene, this scene, he seemed to be back to forty-six years ago——
That blond figure, standing in the same blue flames...
"Incarcerous!"
"Petrificus Totalus!"
All of a sudden, the professors started chanting loudly and tied the girl up like a dumpling.
"Albus, put out the fire first!" Professor McGonagall reminded Dumbledore who was standing there in a daze.
"Atmosphere charm!"
Large thunderclouds floated over, and the sky above Hogwarts was thundering and lightning, and within a few seconds, it began to rain heavily. The raindrops hit them head on, flowing to the ground along the space formed by the waterproof spell.
The raging fire gradually died down in the heavy rain, revealing trees that had been burnt to charcoal and ashes on the ground. In the end, only a few sparks were left, which flickered weakly in the ashes and then went out.
Only then did Dumbledore have time to deal with Jian Yu.
He turned his head, his blue eyes lost their former gentleness, and an invisible pressure emanated from him. The half-moon-shaped lenses flashed a sharp light:
"Your young age is no excuse for doing whatever you want, Jade Jane."
"Burning down a quarter of the Forbidden Forest will force me to expel you. The Wizengamot will be your place."
As he said these words he felt extremely sad.
This is the third time... I have misjudged the person after all...
Maybe I am really old...
Professor McGonagall beside him had regret and pity in her eyes. She wiped her eyes and said nothing.
"Merlin—"
Professor Flitwick swayed, shook his head, and let out a long sigh, as if he could not accept the fact that his best student had burned down the Forbidden Forest.
Snape's face was tense, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking. He held the wand tightly in his hand, and the fingertips turned white due to the force.
Professor Sprout seemed to want to say something, and his lips moved, but he found that he could not find any reason to defend Jian Yu.
Everyone fell silent.
There was deathly silence in the Forbidden Forest.
