Chapter 115: Adventures in the Forbidden Forest (Part 1)

"Wow wow wow wow!!!!"

Tom and Jerry were riding the Nimbus 2000 and running around in the air, accompanied by shrill screams, which had already caused dissatisfaction among the students who were taking flying lessons.

Seeing this, Madam Hooch immediately took out her wand, predicted their movements, and lightly tapped a stream of light to shoot at the brooms of the two children, forcing them to stop.

"Hogwarts does not allow flying on brooms, especially during flying lessons." Madam Hooch put away her wand and patted their heads gently.

It must be said that Tom and Jerry's cute appearance can indeed attract many people's love.

"Okay, don't do it again next time, take your brooms and leave." Looking at the pitiful appearance of the two children, Madam Hooch sighed helplessly.

The two children smiled at this time. As soon as they rode on the brooms, they remembered what Madam Hooch had just said, and quickly got off the brooms, took the brooms and ran away, followed by Jerry.

Looking at the obedient Tom and Jerry, Mrs. Hooch smiled kindly unconsciously.

However, when she turned around and looked at the students behind her, she showed a serious expression again. After all, this is a flying course. If you are not careful, you will fall from a high altitude. Although you will not die in Hogwarts, the feeling of broken bones will not be very good.

Tom and Jerry walked to the edge of the Forbidden Forest and saw a wooden house here. Just as they were about to knock on the door of the wooden house, they saw Li Qingyue who was entering the Forbidden Forest and hurriedly followed him.

"Why are you two following me?" Li Qingyue asked Tom and Jerry who were following him.

"Okay, don't follow me. There are many magical animals in this Forbidden Forest. See if you can make friends with them and then abduct them to our office space."

Tom and Jerry nodded repeatedly and rushed into the Forbidden Forest.

Soon they ran to the depths of the Forbidden Forest. Suddenly Jerry grabbed Tom and pointed to the strange tree.

The two children looked at the strange tree in front of them and approached it curiously. Suddenly, a green light flashed by. The two children narrowly avoided it, but they were not afraid and seemed very excited.

Tom walked to the tree and knocked on the trunk gently. After a while, a cute little green creature quietly poked its head out of the tree hole.

Tom stretched out his hand to it, as if he wanted to shake hands with it, but the little guy was very shy and just watched Tom and Jerry in the tree hole. If Li Qingyue or other students saw the creatures in front of them, they would immediately know their identities - Bowtruckles.

Bowtruckles are a kind of magical animal that is difficult to find. It feeds on insects and is the size of a palm. The danger level is XX.

As for where the danger is, it is in its hands. It has sharp and slender fingers on both hands. It usually lives on trees. If someone dares to hurt the trees they live in, they will pounce on the loggers and use their slender and sharp fingers to dig out the loggers' eyes.

However, this is only when their homes are in danger. Normally, the Bowtruckles are peaceful and extremely shy. If you want to make friends with them, it is best to use a terrapin to get close to them. If the relationship is very good, the Bowtruckle will choose a piece of wood that can be used as a wand from the tree where it lives, cut it off and give it to them.

Tom looked at the Bowtruckles in front of him carefully, and suddenly more Bowtruckles ran out of the tree, looking down at Tom and Jerry.

The two children also excitedly greeted them, and the Bowtruckles also greeted Tom and Jerry one after another. Then the Bowtruckles jumped down from the tree, and Tom was so scared that he quickly caught it.

But as more and more Bowtruckles jumped onto Tom, and they only stood on Tom's head, this caused Tom to be top-heavy.

Tom staggered back and forth, and Jerry raised his hand beside Tom as if he wanted to catch Tom's body that was about to fall, but the funny aura they carried made Jerry completely miss the falling Tom.

The Bowtruckles saw that they caused Tom to fall, and they all looked embarrassed and stretched out their hands to help him up.

Tom waved his hand and stood up, and then began to show off his Nimbus 2000.

The Bowtruckles also curiously stroked the Nimbus 2000, and then they didn't know what they talked about. Tom and Jerry sat on the broom and waved to the Bowtruckles. The Bowtruckles looked at each other and then ran to the broom.

As Tom took off, the Bowtruckles grabbed Tom's fur in fear, and even Jerry had almost two or three Bowtruckles hanging on him.

Li Qingyue stood below and couldn't help smiling at their backs.

"Who are you?" Suddenly, a scolding voice came from behind Li Qingyue. Li Qingyue looked back and found that the person who spoke was a centaur.

"Who are you?" Li Qingyue asked back.

"I am Firenze."

"So it's you. I am a guest of Hogwarts. Dumbledore allows us to visit the Forbidden Forest."

"The Forbidden Forest is very dangerous. Even Dumbledore can't avoid the attacks of some magical animals in the Forbidden Forest." Firenze said.

"I know, but my strength is very strong, so don't worry." Li Qingyue said politely.

Firenze saw this and could only retreat. After all, the centaurs were not the owners of the Forbidden Forest. The Forbidden Forest should belong to Hogwarts. They were at most tenants, so they had no right to prohibit Li Qingyue from visiting the Forbidden Forest.

After the centaurs left, Tom landed in front of Li Qingyue with a bunch of Bowtruckles.

"Tom, is this the friend you just made?" Li Qingyue asked the group of Bowtruckles.

Tom nodded heavily. Li Qingyue stretched out his hand and wanted to touch the Bowtruckles, but they hid in Tom's fur in fear. Li Qingyue saw this and cut off a big tree, then dug a lot of holes, and said to Tom: "Go find Hagrid, the wooden house on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and ask him to take care of these Bowtruckles. Got it?"

Tom nodded repeatedly, then carried the big tree, and the Bowtruckles ran to the trunk and found a hole to live in.

"Tom, settle them down and continue making friends!"

Tom waved his hand without looking back. Just when Li Qingyue was about to go deeper, Headmaster Dumbledore appeared.

"You are going too far."

"Hey, Old Dumbledore, what you are talking about are just some animals. Your Forbidden Forest is so big, it won't affect a little bit."

"But the problem is that you don't seem to want to take any away."

"Don't worry, it will definitely not affect the ecology of the Forbidden Forest. By the way, can you help me get a suitcase of the same style as Newt Scamander?"

"Newt's suitcase is custom-made, but as long as the money is in place, it's still okay."

"How many Galleons do you need?"

"I will notify Fawkes of this number later."

After saying that, Headmaster Dumbledore disappeared again. Li Qingyue "tsk"ed and decided to learn to Apparate before exploring the Forbidden Forest. After all, this thing is really useful for traveling.
