Chapter 231: Centaurs and the Astrology



Wentworth: “…”

Hagrid, who was standing by, was obviously very happy when he heard that Wentworth was willing to enter the Forbidden Forest together.

After all, in the current Hogwarts, no one would treat Wentworth as an ordinary second-year student. Hagrid, who was originally a little worried about the safety of Harry and others, felt a lot more relieved when Wentworth joined.

Seeing that Filch had left and everyone had gathered, Hagrid said, "Our main task tonight is to find the murderer who attacked the unicorn in the Forbidden Forest! Since Wentworth is willing to accompany you into the Forbidden Forest, then, in order to improve efficiency, I suggest that we split into two teams and search separately."

When Hagrid said this, he looked at Wentworth, and Wentworth nodded and continued:

"I agree with Hagrid's suggestion. How about this? Let's put the rest of us in a group and let Draco be in a group by himself! As a member of the excellent and noble Malfoy family, it shouldn't be a problem for Draco to enter the Forbidden Forest!"

Malfoy: "..."

Naturally, Hagrid would not let Malfoy form a group by himself, so, under Hagrid's arrangement, Malfoy and Harry were in a group, led by Wentworth, while Ron and Hermione were in a group, led by Hagrid, and they split up and set off towards the Forbidden Forest.

At the same time, in a corner of the Forbidden Forest, a man with sapphire eyes and long platinum hair was standing in an open space in the Forbidden Forest, looking up at the stars in the night sky motionlessly.

If you just look at the upper body, everyone will think that this is a handsome man.

However, if you continue looking down, you will find that this handsome man actually has the body of a horse.

This is a centaur from the magical world! At this moment, there was a sound of trees shaking in the dense forest behind the centaur. Then, another centaur came out of the dense forest and said to the centaur who was observing the stars at night: "Firenze, I heard from Bane that you left the tribe despite his opposition in order to save a human child? I want to know, why?"

Firenze obviously knew who the visitor was, so he said without turning his head, "Ronan, even an unintelligent beast knows to protect its cubs. There's no need to ask so many questions."

After hearing Firenze's answer, the centaur called Ronan said disapprovingly: "But those beasts without wisdom only protect their own cubs. I have never seen any beast protect the cubs of other beasts!"

Upon hearing this, Firenze did not refute but simply said, "So, they are just beasts without wisdom, and we are not!"

Ron was stunned when he heard Firenze's answer, and then he said angrily: "Firenze, you are making up stories! Don't think we don't know what you want to do. You want to save the legendary child, Harry Potter!"

"But do you know that once you do this, it means that we centaurs have chosen sides. Neutrality is the way for us centaurs to survive. Do you want to wait for that mysterious man to come back and start slaughtering us centaurs?!"

After hearing Ronan's words, Firenze turned around for the first time, looked at his good brother behind him, and slowly said, "The way to survive that you guys are talking about is to hide in this forbidden forest and linger on?"

Hearing Firenze's words, Ronan was stunned for a moment, and then he said angrily: "Firenze, do you know what you are doing? All the centaurs know that a war that will sweep the magical world is about to break out, and you will kill us!"

After hearing what Ronan said, Firenze raised his head again and looked at the starry sky, as if he was too lazy to explain anything to Ronan anymore.

Seeing Firenze's attitude, Ronan was so angry that he laughed. He came in front of Firenze, stared at him closely, and said, "Firenze, I will not let you leave. Don't even think about saving that human cub!"

After hearing what Ronan said, Firenze just glanced at him indifferently without any reaction, which made Ronan a little at a loss.

Just when Ronan thought he had touched Firenze, Firenze suddenly said, "Ronan, don't waste your energy. In fact, I'm no longer needed there."

Firenze looked up at the starry sky, and also spoke with a puzzled look on his face: "A star suddenly appeared, emitting an incomparable starlight, which was about to cover up the original stars. But the stars chose to take shelter under his starlight. Any star that wants to resist these dazzling stars will eventually be annihilated."

Hearing what Firenze said, Ronan also raised his head, but he was still confused.

But seeing that Firenze really had no intention of taking another step forward, Ronan breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

On the other side, Draco and Harry were following Wentworth's footsteps and walking through the Forbidden Forest.

However, the three of them still got nothing.

Suddenly, Wentworth, who was walking in front, stopped and slapped himself on the forehead.

Seeing Wentworth's sudden action, Harry and Draco were both stunned. Harry quickly asked, "What happened, Wentworth?"

Wentworth turned around, looked at Harry with an annoyed look on his face, and said:

"It's okay, I just suddenly felt so stupid!"

After hearing what Wentworth said, Harry and Draco looked at each other, both with confused expressions.

But Wentworth suddenly walked behind the two of them and said to them, "You two lead the way!"

Hearing Wentworth's words, Harry waved his hands and said, "Don't be ridiculous, Wentworth, we don't know the way!"

Wentworth said unhappily:

"Do you think I know the way? Don't worry, just go forward boldly. I believe you can lead us to the trap... No, to the murderer!"

Hearing Wentworth's words, Harry swallowed, quickly pulled out his wand from his arms, randomly chose a direction, and began to walk forward.

After a while, Draco seemed to have discovered something. He pointed at the ground in front of him and said loudly: "Look, look what is that?"

The three of them quickly ran forward in the direction of Draco's finger. Under the moonlight, they saw a pool of silvery-white liquid, which was very beautiful.

Draco even wanted to reach out and touch it, but was stopped by Wentworth. Seeing this, Draco asked curiously: "Wentworth, do you know what this is?"

Wentworth glanced around vigilantly and said slowly, "If Professor Snape hears your question, you will probably have to go to his office for extra lessons for a month!"
