Start by logging into the Old Man's Ring at Hogwarts

"Yes, you know that your cousin likes to watch the fun."

Zicomo gave a wicked smile and continued, "It's a pity, Gryffindor will lose a lot of points this time."

"It doesn't matter. Gryffindor is already more than a hundred points ahead of second place. I can always earn more later."

Hermione said casually.

Hermione has become indifferent to the idea of ​​academic credits.

She noticed that Gryffindor students were losing points every now and then, and realized that these little lions were simply not well-behaved.

In the end, she came to terms with it.

I'll earn my share, you can deduct yours. As long as I earn enough, you can't deduct it all.

…………

The next day, Zicomo and Hermione were having breakfast.

The two had already seen it: Gryffindor lost 100 points, and Slytherin lost 50 points.

Harry and Ron came into the hall, sat down, and immediately started complaining to each other.

“Zicomo, why didn’t you tell us that Malfoy complained to Professor McGonagall?”

“I remember I gave a hint that I said someone wanted to leave with me, but you didn’t want to go.”

Zicomo slowly swallowed his breakfast and said.

"Didn't Harry have the Invisibility Cloak? How come you all managed to escape?" Hermione asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Harry said regretfully, "I forgot to bring it."

It's no wonder they're Gryffindor; they were completely unprepared for their nighttime excursion.

"Actually, I did this for Gryffindor. Think about it, if I hadn't taken Hermione away, wouldn't we have lost another hundred points today?"

Zicomo said with a straight face, trying to fool people.

Harry and Ron nodded in agreement.

The two's antics made Hermione, who was standing nearby, want to laugh.

My cousin is so wicked; he betrayed others and then made them count the money for him.

Hermione quickly changed the subject, otherwise she was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold back her laughter.

"So, what is your punishment?"

"I'll go patrol the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid tonight."

Ron's voice sounded somewhat fearful and uneasy.

"Aha, then you'd better watch out. Remember my spider legs? I got them in the Forbidden Forest. Do you know what that means?"

Zicomo looked at Ron with a meaningful gaze and said.

"This means there are spiders as big as calves in the Forbidden Forest."

Upon hearing this, Ron was on the verge of tears. He grabbed Harry's hand and said in a trembling voice.

"Harry, can we ask Professor McGonagall to change the punishment? This is just too terrible."

"Alright, didn't you realize Zicomo was just teasing you? The Forbidden Forest is so big, we might not even run into those spiders. Besides, we have Hagrid with us, what's there to be afraid of?" Harry comforted him.

Yes, the Forbidden Forest is so vast, how come you had to run into Voldemort?

Zicomo thought to himself.

Hermione asked in a low voice, "Should we follow them tonight?"

"Of course, tonight is sure to be very interesting."

The little witch was speechless for a moment. I thought you were worried about their safety, but I didn't expect you to be looking for fun.

That night, Filch led Harry, Ron, and Draco out of the castle.

"It's a pity we can't use the old methods of punishment anymore, otherwise you would be locked in the basement and hung up by your thumbs. I really miss the days when we could use torture devices."

Filch threatened the three men in a sinister tone.

Zicomo, holding Hermione the cat, followed them at a distance.

"Why does Filch always speak so harshly to the students?" Hermione asked curiously.

"Perhaps it's because of cynicism? He's a Squib, spending all his time among wizards, he's probably become psychologically twisted," Zicomo said dismissively.

Although Filch is pitiful, there's always a reason why someone is pitiful.

This guy has become somewhat psychologically disturbed.

As a Squib, I watch others cast spells every day, while I don't even have the right to wave a wand myself.

Over time, the mind will naturally become twisted and dark.

I wonder why Dumbledore hired him in the first place. Was it because the salary was cheap?

Chapter Thirty-Nine: A Nighttime Excursion into the Forbidden Forest, Rescuing the Unicorn

"I see." Hermione nodded in understanding.

While the two were talking, Harry, the other two had already been handed over to Hagrid by Filch.

Upon arriving at the Forbidden Forest, Hagrid warned Harry and the others that someone had been poaching unicorns there and urged them to be extremely careful.

Then they turned around and decided to split into two groups.

Frightened, Draco chose to travel with Hagrid's dog.

Little did they know that although Ya Ya looked mighty and fierce, he was actually gentle and even a little timid.

Zicomo watched as Hagrid led Ron to the left, while Harry and Draco led Baskerville to the right.

It's unclear whether Haiger is genuinely carefree or has absolute security.

Could it be that he's become familiar with the Forbidden Forest and thinks the magical creatures there will give him some respect?

The problem is that he already said someone was poaching unicorns, so why did he put Harry and Draco together? I don't know what he was thinking.

Harry and Marco, trembling with fear, slowly made their way forward, carrying their lanterns.

Zicomo and Hermione strolled leisurely, even walking ahead of them.

Zicomo carried Hermione as they strolled through the Forbidden Forest.

"It's so boring, just a dark, empty space." Hermione, the cat in her arms, pouted.

“That’s how it is at night in the forest,” Zicomo said, unsurprised.

“Cousin, have you been to the Forbidden Forest many times already?” Hermione asked.

She knew her cousin; he was terrible with directions.

Unless you walk the terrain a dozen times, you simply can't remember the way.

"Hmm, I occasionally take Erlo out for a walk."

Actually, they came out to check for omissions and see what else in the Forbidden Forest hadn't been transplanted into the 'Zen Garden'.

Soon, the two arrived at a new area.

Moonlight shone through the gaps in the leaves, and fireflies danced among the grass, creating a tranquil and dreamlike scene.

"Wow! This place is nice," Hermione exclaimed.

"Yes, but the more beautiful a place is, the more danger it is."

"What do you mean?"

"Look at this."

Zicomo gestured for her to look at a bright spot in the grass.

The silvery liquid shimmered with fluorescence.

"This is... unicorn blood?"

Hermione quickly searched her memory and found a record of it.

"Yes, it seems we're in luck; we've run into poachers. Should we follow them and take a look?"

"Is there any danger?"

Hermione was worried that she would hold Zicomo back.

"It's alright. This is probably the first time you've seen your cousin fight, right? Let me show you what I'm capable of!"

Zicomo was full of confidence; he considered Cirque du Go and his remnant master insignificant.

The two followed the trail of blood from the unicorn.

Arriving at the edge of a jungle, a dark figure was lying on the ground, constantly sucking the blood of a unicorn.

The unicorn was clearly a cub; its white body lay on the ground, its chest rising and falling slowly, indicating that it was on the verge of death.

Hermione asked with concern, "Cousin, can you save it?"
