Chapter 281 Forbidden Forest Night Walk
Sherlock had just left the kitchen at this time and was standing in the corridor on the first floor of the castle.
Through the unsealed windows along the corridor, he could clearly see the view outside the castle.
The weather was very good tonight, and the bright moonlight shone on the water of the Black Lake and sparkled with sparkling waves.
But Sherlock's eyes were not on this beautiful scenery, he was looking at a figure.
A man wearing a black robe was walking carefully along the Black Lake towards the Forbidden Forest.
Just the moment she saw this figure, Sherlock thought of the words Moody had said to him during the day.
Then he immediately made a decision in his heart. Without any extra hesitation, he waved his wand and recited a spell.
"Hushen Guard."
A small silver crow instantly gathered from countless silver lights, and then flew out above the castle with its wings.
Sherlock himself moved extremely quickly through the corridor and left the castle.
When he came to the black lake, he had already seen the strange man in black robe walking to the edge of the forbidden forest from afar, and then he disappeared into the dark woods.
Sherlock frowned. He did not stop for a moment and quickly approached the Forbidden Forest, but after coming to the Forbidden Forest, he was sure that he had lost his target.
The environment of forbidden forests is much more complicated than the lawn by the black lake. Once it disappears from sight, it will be difficult to regain the target.
But Sherlock did not give up. He just wandered around for two steps and turned around and walked towards the Hagrid House.
However, when he approached Hagrid's hut and shouted outside several times but received no response, he was sure that there was no one in the house and Hagrid was not at home tonight.
Fortunately, a dog barking made Sherlock smile on his face.
He crossed the fence surrounded by Hagrid and followed the sound to find the timid hunting dog that Hagrid raised, beside Yaya.
When she saw Sherlock, Yaya shook her tail and showed an intimate attitude.
Whenever Sherlock came to Hagrid for something, he would bring him a few dog biscuits or meat bones, which made Yaya have always had a good relationship with him.
With Teeth, it is not very important to have Hagrid or not now.
Sherlock led Yaya away from Hagrid's hut and returned to the forbidden forest where the man in black robe had disappeared at the beginning.
"Okay, help me find out which direction the person who just entered here went."
Yaya understood his words, sniffed carefully at the trampled lawn, and then took Sherlock to one direction in the Forbidden Forest.
Sherlock pulled the pendant off his neck while running, and then threw it into the sky.
"It's almost time to get up and work! Tips."
When the pendant was thrown to the highest sky, it suddenly turned into a crow with black body and only a pair of blood-red eyes.
Federtic, who was forced to work less than an hour ago, has been called out again, which makes it look very dissatisfied and vents this dissatisfaction directly. He swears in bird language like a swear word.
“Vertical slacking off?”
Suddenly it stopped croaking, spreading its wings under the moonlight in disappointment, following Sherlock and Yaya's figures from the sky, observing the surroundings from a wider perspective.
Sherlock would not make the reckless mistake that Harry and the others would make only when they are young and ignorant.
Now his strength is a first-class wizard in the entire magic world. Except for the top group, no matter how strong the others are, they will not be as strong as him to make him unable to resist and directly crush him.
Even if he found a suspicious person like this, he would not secretly follow him. The guardian saint he summoned at the beginning was to be responsible for notifying other people in the castle.
Now if Dumbledore was in school, he would have known about his entry into the Forbidden Forest.
With his back against Dumbledore's tree, Sherlock would not be so stupid that he created trouble for himself when there was no need to take risks.
Yaya is very familiar with the environment in the forbidden forest. Even in the dark, it starts running as soon as it enters the woods. Fortunately, Sherlock is not an old abandoned house like Snape. She can still keep up with her physical strength when she has just finished her midnight snack.
They kept running forward for about twenty minutes. Just as they were getting closer and closer to the depths of the Forbidden Forest, Yaya suddenly stopped his pace, as if he was hesitating about the next direction and sniffing again at the ground.
The crows turned into by tips were also hovering over their heads, and were always reporting the situation around them through the contractual connection between it and Sherlock.
Until now, it has no valuable discoveries.
After a brief hesitation, Yaya chose a direction again and continued to lead Sherlock forward.
It was just that the ground became wet and sticky, and it had just rained in the area where Hogwarts was located at the front end. Perhaps it was because the branches and leaves of the trees were too dense, which made the ground not dry as fast as outside, hindering their speed of progress.
Moreover, Yaya did not start running again this time, but instead walked forward slowly with four legs.
At first, Sherlock thought it could not smell the scent left by the man in black.
But soon, he found that this was not the case in his body, which was trembling with obvious teeth.
"What are you afraid of?"
Faced with Sherlock's question, Yaya certainly couldn't answer it in human language. It just whimpered around Sherlock with its tail, and was very resistant to continue moving forward.
Federtic, who was hovering in the sky, gave Sherlock feedback, and it found no abnormalities.
Sherlock, who had already deployed his magic after entering the Forbidden Forest, did not find anything wrong around him.
Looking at Yaya's current appearance, he remembered that the Forbidden Forest seemed to have had several dragons in the past few days.
"Don't be afraid of teeth." Sherlock comforted her dog's head, "If I look at you, don't worry."
Yaya seemed to be able to understand his promise, and stepped forward with four legs again and walked forward hundreds of meters.
Just as the surrounding trees were getting denser, suddenly, under the control of Sherlock's magical perception, a miserable green spell broke into the field at an extremely fast speed and shot towards his position!
But no matter how fast the life-seeking curse was, she was not as fast as Sherlock's thoughts. A broken branch in front of him silently completed the deformation in an instant, and a door panel was erected to block him!
"Bang!"
The wood chips splashed, and the life-seeking curse exploded a tiny hole on the door panel.
Chapter completed!
