After saying goodbye to Hagrid, Lamia went to find Harry. According to their plan, they had to find Draco first and keep an eye on him until they found evidence.

But Lamia thought that their plan could be changed temporarily. After all, there were two people missing, and Hagrid's rock cakes were not ready yet.

"Harry, let's not go looking for Draco. We'll just stay here. I think he'll be here soon." Lamia said to Harry. They were now hiding in the woods opposite Hagrid's hut. It was eerily quiet here.

"But then we won't know what drug Draco gave us, and what if he never comes? We can't stay here for long. Hermione said the longer we stay, the more tired we will be." Harry hesitated. He would rather find Draco directly and get evidence from him, or find out where he hid the evidence and look for it when they return to the real world.

"That won't work. We didn't leak the information. It would be terrible if we ran into our version of this timeline." Lamia didn't want to take any risks, especially since she knew how cruel and ruthless time was.

She would rather stay here a little longer.

In the end, the two decided to guard here for a day. If Draco did not show up, they would act together. They changed their original plan of acting separately and left one person to keep watch.

Lamia thought for a moment, walked around, and finally jumped up and landed on the tallest tree. Her movements were very light. If Harry hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would definitely not know what had just happened.

"Lamia, what about me? Where should I hide?" Harry covered his mouth and whispered. He was not worried at all that Lamia couldn't hear him.

There was another soft sound, and Harry looked at Lamia who was standing in front of him the next second. Even though he knew Lamia's true strength, he couldn't help but be shocked for a moment.

"Harry, come with me. Let's go to the tree. We will never be discovered there." Lamia felt that she had chosen a perfect hiding place, especially since the view from up there was very clear. She could even see the thief in Hagrid's pumpkin patch from up there.

"But I can't get up." Harry grabbed his hands embarrassedly. He was too embarrassed to ask Lamia to carry him up.

"I'll take you up." Lamia understood what Harry meant, but she didn't hug him. Instead, she pulled his arm and with just a little effort, the two of them stood on the tree branch easily as if they could fly.

"Okay, Harry, open your eyes."

Harry didn't dare to open his eyes at all, but after hesitating for a while, he still took a look out through his fingers. But this one look made Harry see a different scenery. He opened his eyes wide, because he had never seen Hogwarts in this direction before.

Lamia raised an eyebrow, as if surprised at Harry's ability to adapt to high altitudes.

"Lamia, you've forgotten that I'm the seeker of the Gryffindor Quidditch team." Harry looked at Lamia resentfully, having completely adapted to this height.

"I'm sorry, Harry, uh, you know, I've never been a fan of this." Lamia looked away awkwardly, but it didn't matter that she actually saw Draco, Goyle and Crabbe acting suspiciously.

The three men were heading towards Hagrid's hut, their faces showing the excitement of doing something bad and the nervousness of being discovered, especially Draco, who was like a badger stealing watermelons.

Lamia motioned for Harry to look over, and the two of them watched Draco and the others intently. They had already walked outside Hagrid's hut and were now poking holes in the window.

"Lamia, what are they doing?" Harry whispered, leaning forward to look at Draco and the others. "Why don't they just go inside? Are they afraid of Hagrid?"

"Hush, Harry, I don't think they are going to give the drug to Hagrid, but they are observing Hagrid." Lamia thought of what Draco once said. He said he didn't know that the thing was made by Hagrid for himself, which means that the place where he actually gave the drug was not in the hut.

Lamia decided to wait a little longer before jumping down from the tree, not wanting Hagrid to be poisoned again.

After Draco and the others poked a hole in the window, they gathered together to discuss something, occasionally letting out malicious laughter.

They didn't leave until Hagrid put the finished rock cakes out to cool, and they hid among the rocks behind the hut.

Hagrid had no idea that so many students with other thoughts were gathered around his hut. He was placing the freshly-baked rock cakes one by one in a bamboo basket. When the wind blew, the smell even reached Lamia's nose. It was an indescribable strange smell, just like the smell of shoe soles.

"What a pity Lamia didn't make it." Hagrid picked up a rock cake while it was still hot. Even though it was so hot that he stuck out his tongue, he still opened his mouth wide to eat it. He fanned the rock cake while looking in the direction of the castle, as if waiting for Lamia.

Draco and the other two stayed behind the stone until Hagrid entered the room again, and then they came out again.

"Hurry up! Goyle, that big idiot will be out soon, we have to give the medicine before he finds out!" Draco kept urging Goyle who was rummaging through his bag.

"Okay, I know, but wait, I can't find the powder. I remember it was here." Gore was urged to turn the whole bag upside down before he finally found the powder wrapped in brown paper.

"Huh, finally found it." Goyle breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to see Draco's terrifying eyes again.

Draco quickly took the powder and sprinkled it on the rock cakes. Almost every one of them was covered with the white powder.

"Boss, what if Hagrid made this for himself? I just saw him eating it." Crabbe said hesitantly at the back.

"Impossible! This thing can't be eaten by humans. Even if he is a giant, he can't eat it. Didn't you see that he just tasted it when it just came out of the pot? He must have wanted to see if it was cooked." Draco denied it without thinking.

It's not his fault. Once you've seen rock cakes, if you don't know, no one would think they are made for human consumption. They look like real rocks.

"Go, go, don't get discovered!"

Draco casually handed the brown paper to Goyle and was the first to run behind the rock. He moved very quickly because Hagrid would soon bring out a new plate of rock cakes.

After the three escaped, Lamia jumped down with Harry before Hagrid came out. They witnessed the whole process of Draco drugging Harry, and Harry was very angry.

"Lamia, how could they! How could they do this!"

"Harry, calm down." Lamia shook Harry's shoulders, awakening him from his anger. "Have you forgotten? We have to help Hagrid now. We must not be impulsive at this time."

"But I can't help it, Lamia. I want to run over and punch them all right now. What did Hagrid do wrong?" Harry couldn't understand at all. He felt that no matter how big a prank it was, he couldn't really do something to hurt others. Or maybe this wasn't a prank at all, but a bullying against Hagrid.

"Don't try to understand the villain's psychology. What happened has already happened. All we can do is help Hagrid escape this time. He is realistic..."
