Snakes at Hogwarts

Chapter 154 The carefree little snakes

Outside Hogwarts Castle.

A carriage was moving forward smoothly, heading towards Hogward Station along the path Hagrid had cleared overnight.

Interrupted in his thoughts by Draco's words, Andros raised his head, and his Slytherin friends on the seats next to him were looking at him with frowns.

The eyes of the little snakes were full of worry.

"Are you okay, Ender? Did you just~" Pansy asked.

"Ah? I~I'm fine." Andros shook his head gently.

His face was no longer so ugly, but it still remained pale, and his back was soaked with cold sweat.

This made Andros shudder uncontrollably.

"I was just thinking about the contents of the book."

[Send red envelopes] Reading benefits are here!You have up to 888 cash red envelopes to be drawn!Pay attention to the Weixin official account [Book Friends Base Camp] to draw red envelopes!

Andros raised the book in his hand and let them take a look at the cover.

"What am I talking about? Ender is definitely in a daze again!" Zabini couldn't help but complain after seeing the eye-catching gilt characters of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".

These little snakes are also used to Andros' habitual wandering around.

It's just that this time his face was so ugly, that's why they were so worried just now.

The little snakes thought that the former was under some unclean curse.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, when did you become interested in magical creatures again?" Draco smacked his lips.

"Three days ago, I borrowed this book from the library and planned to use it for entertainment on my return trip."

"I said, you are working too hard. Do geniuses also need to work so hard? They are already on vacation and they are still reading books non-stop!" Zabini exclaimed in a fuss.

"There's nothing to do anyway, so there's no need to make such a fuss." Andros put away the book in his hand with a calm expression.

No one knew how panicked he was just now.

"Draco, I'm not saying this. You should really learn from others. If you worked half as hard as Ender, you wouldn't have to refer to mine all the time for those assignments."

"You fart, Zabini! Do you dare to say that you have never copied my homework once?"

Soon, the two guys forgot what happened just now and started laughing and joking.

Children are often so carefree.

They don’t need to worry about whether they will have enough to eat tomorrow, and they can easily be distracted by other interesting things.

After laughing and joking for a while, their attention soon focused on the driverless carriage.

"How on earth do they make these carriages move on their own?" Pansy couldn't help but ask, looking at the empty shafts in front of the carriages and the wheels that kept turning forward.

"Draco, isn't your father the director of the school? You must know why!"

"Maybe, but my dad never told me about this, maybe it's some kind of alchemy device. Isn't Dumbledore very good at doing these tricks." When Dumbledore was mentioned, Draco looked a little bit Contempt.

The relationship between these pure-blood nobles and Dumbledore was very bad, and the two were completely in the same boat.

"Didn't you see it?" Andros couldn't help but ask.

He found that except for himself, everyone else in the car seemed to be completely unaware of the existence of Thestrals.

They looked at the empty front of the carriage and speculated with interest on the possibilities of the carriage moving on its own.

It seems that the children of these pure-blood families have never encountered any setbacks since childhood. They have grown up as carefree as flowers in a greenhouse, and have never had the experience of facing death.

"Ender, what did you see?"

"Yeah, is there something wrong?"

"No, it's nothing. I just saw a dark shadow flashing past the edge of the forest and thought it was some magical creature." Andros made up an excuse to fool him.

He had no intention of telling these people how the carriage worked and that he could see the Thestrals.

Because there are many things in this that Andros himself cannot explain clearly.

Before things came to light, he subconsciously thought that he should protect this secret.

Maybe, maybe I am overthinking everything.

If a wizard really modified his memory, then he must already know the direction of the world, and he would never go to school in Hogwarts like this safely.

Andros comforted himself in his mind.

Bao Buqi had an accident and he accidentally faced death.

Maybe it was a homeless man whose name I couldn't name, or an unlucky guy who was beaten to death. I had watched this from a distance.

It's normal even if you forget about such things.

Well, it must be so.

...............................................

These carriages pulled by the Thestrals soon arrived at their destination, a train station next to a wizarding village called Hogsmeade, Hogsmeade Station.

Andros turned around and saw that the weather today was pretty good. Through the surface of the black lake, which was covered with thick ice and snow, he could vaguely see the outline of Hogwarts Castle on the other side of the lake.

It seems that this is located directly opposite Hogwarts Castle.

Maybe in addition to those secret passages, you can try to sneak to Hogsmeade by crossing the Black Lake.

Of course, Andros was referring to winter.

At other times, he would not have had the courage to swim across the Black Lake.

Andros was afraid of being slapped in the teeth like a dessert by the giant creature living inside.

"Okay kids, get down here! It's time to get in the car!"

Hagrid's bold and loud voice came from not far away. He was standing next to a small and broken platform, which was exactly where they came from.

Behind Hagrid, a scarlet steam train was parked quietly.

That is of course the Hogwarts Express, a steam train modified with magical power.

After waving to Hagrid who was not far away, Andros climbed onto the train with the snakes.

Hagrid also obviously noticed Andros's actions. He waved his palm as big as a trash can lid and greeted Andros warmly.

"You have a good relationship with that big guy?"

After getting in the car, Draco couldn't help but ask.

"That's right. He took us to the Forbidden Forest when we were imprisoned. What's wrong? I remember telling you about Hagrid."

"Who cares what his name is!" Draco curled his lips, seeming to be quite disdainful of the name Hagrid.

If you knew that he would raise a fire dragon cub in the future, I don’t know if you would still have this idea.

Andros chuckled inwardly.

He knew how obsessed this little dragon was with dragon-like creatures.

"But Ender, you did remind me. How did that matter go?"
