Chapter 229 Curfew Time



"Wentworth, why are you here?"

Hagrid asked curiously.

Wentworth answered without even looking up:

"Principal Dumbledore gave me a task. I was just passing by here and wanted to say hello to you, but I didn't expect to see such a magical scene."

Then, without waiting for others to ask again, Wentworth pointed at the Norwegian Spinosaurus in front of him and said:

"Hagrid, what are you going to do?"

Hagrid said excitedly, "I plan to keep him secretly in the Forbidden Forest. You won't tell anyone, right Wentworth?"

Hearing Hagrid's answer, Wentworth smiled and said:

"Of course, I won't betray you!"

Hearing Wentworth's answer, Hagrid was about to express his gratitude, but he heard Wentworth continue:

"But are you ready to lose the entire Forbidden Forest because of a Norwegian Spinosaurus?"

Hagrid was stunned when he heard Wentworth's words.

At this time, Hermione on the side echoed:

"What Wentworth said is right, Hagrid. You've seen it just now. It was just born, but it can already spit out dragon's breath. Are you sure it won't set the Forbidden Forest on fire?"

After hearing what Wentworth and Hermione said, Hagrid was silent for a while. After a long while, he said with some grievance: "But it's still so small. Where can I send it?"

At this time, Draco on the side said excitedly:

"I told you Hagrid, sell it to me! I can give you enough gold Galleons!"

Hearing Draco's words, Hagrid gritted his teeth and said, "Don't even think about it. I won't sell my child!"

Ron on the side said at this time: "Leave it to me, Hagrid. My brother is studying dragons in Romania. We can send it to my brother."

But Hagrid said reluctantly: "Romania? No, it's too far away! I'm afraid I'll never see it again!"

At this time, Wentworth finally spoke: "Then leave it to me, Hagrid. In a few days, I will find someone to take Norbert away and find a suitable place to raise him. You can come and see him later, if you trust me!"

Hearing Wentworth's words, Hagrid said quickly: "Wentworth, of course I trust you, but where are you going to keep it?"

Wentworth said confidently, "How about raising it in Austria? I have an elder who lives alone in a forest in Austria. This Norwegian Spinosaurus could be a good companion for him!"

Hearing Wentworth's answer, Hagrid nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course, Austria is good. Austria is not too far away. It's just that Norbert is a dragon after all. Although he is a good boy, he is still a little dangerous when he gets angry. Is your elder okay?"

Hearing Hagrid's words, Wentworth laughed and said:

"Don't worry, this is nothing to him!"

Seeing that Hagrid and Wentworth had settled down, Draco pouted and sat down, seeming very annoyed that he had missed a real dragon.

Seeing that the matter with the dragon was dealt with, Wentworth glanced at the time, turned to Harry and the others and said, "It's curfew time, aren't you planning to go back? I just saw Professor McGonagall patrolling the corridor, as if to check the curfew!"

Hearing Wentworth's words, Harry and the others looked at each other, said goodbye to Hagrid and Wentworth, and rushed back.

Seeing Harry and the others running back, but Wentworth still sitting very calmly in his cabin, and even unceremoniously picked up the teacup and poured himself a cup of hot tea, Hagrid asked curiously: "Wentworth, curfew is here, aren't you going back quickly?"

Wentworth took a sip of tea leisurely before saying, "It's okay. Didn't you forget what I just said? I came here to complete a task assigned to me by Headmaster Dumbledore."

After hearing what Wentworth said, Hagrid suddenly realized it, and then, Hagrid said without hesitation:

"Wentworth, what task did Headmaster Dumbledore give you? Do you need my help?"

Hearing what Hagrid said, Wentworth smiled and said:

“That’s great!”

But then, Wentworth showed a mysterious expression and whispered to Hagrid:

"Hagrid, have you heard? Recently, the Forbidden Forest seems to be very unstable. Even a unicorn was attacked. The task Dumbledore gave me is to find out the truth behind this!"

After hearing Wentworth's explanation, Hagrid quickly said, "Of course I know. I was the first one to tell Dumbledore this news. Don't worry, Wentworth. I will definitely help you. Besides, this is my job!"

Seeing Hagrid patting his chest and making a promise, Wentworth smiled with great satisfaction.

Then, after drinking a cup of tea, Wentworth walked out of Hagrid's Hut, took a few steps around the Forbidden Forest, and then walked slowly towards Hogwarts Castle.

As soon as he entered the castle, Wentworth saw Professor McGonagall standing there angrily, talking loudly. In front of Professor McGonagall, Harry, Draco and others were crying and letting Professor McGonagall spit at them.

"Good evening, Professor McGonagall!"

Wentworth walked up with a smile and greeted Professor McGonagall.

When Professor McGonagall saw Wentworth approaching so leisurely, she couldn't help but frown and said, "Wentworth, I hope you can give me a good reason to forgive you for not returning to the dormitory so late."

Hearing Professor McGonagall's question, Wentworth calmly took out a note from his arms and handed it to Professor McGonagall.

Professor McGonagall took the note and frowned even more, but she still returned the note to Wentworth, saying:

"Although this is allowed by Headmaster Dumbledore, I still want to remind you, Wentworth, to be careful!"

Wentworth nodded repeatedly, and then Professor McGonagall signaled that Wentworth could leave.

Wentworth walked past Harry and the others into the castle. He looked back and saw Professor McGonagall holding a note in her hand. She was roaring at Harry and the others, "If it wasn't for an enthusiastic classmate who left me a note, I wouldn't have believed that four first-year students would dare to hang around the Forbidden Forest during curfew! Who gave you the courage!"

Hearing this, Wentworth smiled slightly. At the same time, a small green figure crawled along Wentworth's trousers and into Wentworth's sleeves step by step. It was Wentworth's Bowtruckle.
