The Easter holiday lasted about two weeks. At this time, Hogwarts had entered summer. The school was full of lush bushes and osmanthus.

But the students did not feel the leisure of the holiday at all. The professors left a lot of homework, which made the Easter holiday far less fun than Christmas.

Especially under the guidance of Belby, the professors (led by McGonagall) discovered new uses for the answer parchment and kept writing new questions on it.

In the common room, Ron stared and made a simple dice with parchment, and chose the answer according to the result.

As a result, he threw the largest number six three times in a row. He

put the tip of his wand on the dice and shouted angrily: "Look, there are only five answers at most. If you give me another option that doesn't exist..."

Hermione raised her head impatiently, "Can't you do it yourself seriously?"

Ron collapsed on the table with a look of despair: "What can I do? Every professor left so much homework."

"You just piled up all the homework at the end! You went to watch Harry train every day for the first three days!"

Amid the noise, Harry dragged his tired body back, and he looked quite tired.

"Harry, are you all right?" Hermione asked with concern, "You don't look very well."

"I'm fine." Harry said, and he found that his voice was particularly hoarse. He cleared his throat and explained, "I spent too much time discussing tactics with Wood..."

"We are currently in first place, Slytherin is second, and the scores are very close."

"How many points are the gap?" Ron asked with interest, and he stuffed the answer parchment into his schoolbag.

"Thirty points."

"That's a dangerous number."

"Wood said so too. They are getting more and more proficient in the new brooms, and they will get a lot of points in the subsequent tours."

"When is the next game?"

"The first Saturday after the holiday."

Harry took out the parchment and started to do his homework. He saw Hermione drawing squares with different colors of ink.

"What is this?"

Hermione didn't look up, "Revision schedule."

Ron opened his mouth wide: "Hermione, you are thinking too early, aren't you?"

"I must remind you," Hermione raised her head and looked at them seriously: "We only have six weeks before the exam."

...

Deep in the Forbidden Forest.

Felix and Belby waded through the knee-deep grass. There was no path here. Looking around, there were tall trees and low shrubs everywhere, as well as herbs growing wildly.

A thin layer of mist gave the Forbidden Forest a hazy color.

During the Easter holiday, Felix and Belby agreed to explore the Forbidden Forest together. Belby wanted to create a special topic on Forbidden Forest biology for the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, while Felix simply wanted to see some fresh and interesting animals and plants, and pick up some materials for experiments along the way.

"Belby, wait a minute!"

Felix squatted down, pushed aside a bush, and carefully picked up a magical plant with black roots and white flowers, including the roots and leaves.

Belby took a look and said excitedly, "It's blackroot? This thing is quite rare. What are you going to do with it?"

"Prepare a potion. I found the formula in the library. It can neutralize the cold properties of magical biological materials."

Belby thought and said, "I don't know about this. I only know that taking blackroot can effectively resist the damage of black magic."

"Is the effect so exaggerated?" Felix looked at the black plant in his hand with some surprise.

"It can only be said that it has some effect... In fact, it is better to make a potion. It has a miraculous effect on various black magic damage." Belby is an authority in this field.

Felix transplanted the blackroot into a copper vessel. Belby took out a thumb-sized transparent glass tube from his robe and carefully dripped two drops of potion on it. "Okay, it should be able to survive the transplant period if you want to grow it." "

I need its flowers. Which part do you need?"

"Roots." Belby said without hesitation.

The two looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

This is the third day of the Forbidden Forest expedition. They know each other's attitudes and habits very well.

A heavy sound of footsteps came from the distance.

The two pointed their wands in that direction at the same time.

The Forbidden Forest is also known as the Dark Forest because the dense, tall trees block out the sunlight. The bushes in front of him shook violently. With the help of the dim light, Belby nervously shouted, "Who's there?"

"Woof! Woof!" A huge black hound emerged from the dense leaves, followed by a burly figure.

His height was extremely oppressive, and he looked like a giant. His tangled black hair and beard almost covered most of his face.

"Hello, Hagrid." Felix greeted.

Hagrid was holding a large bucket in his hand. He first glanced at Belby warily, then saw Felix behind him and his expression relaxed. "Hello, Felix."

Hagrid said in a rough voice, "What are you doing here?"

"Looking for some magic materials." Felix raised the copper vessel in his hand. Then, he put the blackroot grass into a specific area in the ring.

Belby said, "I'm going to see some creatures in the Forbidden Forest and pick some to teach the young wizards."

"Really?" Hagrid asked with interest, "What's the target?"

"Some dark creatures," Belby said, "Regular magical creatures are not within the scope of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class."

Felix suddenly said, "Hagrid, I heard that Professor Kettleburn has clearly retired, and he recommended you to Dumbledore."

Hagrid's face turned red, "Yeah, I didn't mention it to anyone, and I always felt that this matter was a bit uncertain... But Dumbledore promised to solve my identity problem, and he always keeps his word."

Next, Hagrid took them around the neighborhood. He could always easily find traces left by various magical creatures. He pointed to an indentation on the ground and said, "Some of them look like traces of porcupines, or maybe warthogs. I've seen them a few times..."

After walking a distance, Hagrid said to them, "The front is the unicorns' territory, but they just gave birth, so they are very vigilant."

Hagrid put the bucket on an open space, stepped back a distance, and whistled.

Two or three minutes later, a tall and agile male unicorn came out, with snow-white fur. It stared at Felix and Belby vigilantly.

"Ruby, they are my friends." Hagrid said from a distance. He turned his head and explained to the two of them, "I brought them some nutrients, which are good for female unicorns after giving birth."

The unicorn nodded at Hagrid and left with the bucket in its mouth.

Belby asked with great interest, "Have they always been so arrogant?"

Hagrid said in a rough voice, "Not really. Take humans for example. We are also weird in the eyes of some creatures. We don't even eat raw meat. It's all habit, isn't it?"

"Very interesting point of view, Hagrid."
