"What happened there? Who's in the Forbidden Forest at this late hour?"

As soon as the professors met, Professor Flitwick asked impatiently.

Just when Professor McGonagall, with a serious face, was about to speak, a wheezing sound suddenly came from behind several professors.

They looked back and saw Filch rushing over with a lantern in hand. He said, "I was just patrolling the Forbidden Forest. Why did Hagrid make such a big fuss?"

Hearing Filch's words, Flitwick and Snape both breathed a sigh of relief.

Oh, it's Hagrid, that's all right! But at this moment, Filch continued:

"Could it be that those guys got lost?"

Hearing this, Snape immediately frowned, grabbed Filch, and asked, "Who else is in there?"

Filch was startled by Snape's action, and then he stammered: "And...and Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter!"

Every time Filch said a name, the faces of the professors around him became uglier. When Filch finally said Harry Potter's name, Snape pushed Filch away and ran into the Forbidden Forest.

Upon seeing this, Professor McGonagall immediately followed, while Professor Flitwick, due to his short legs, ran at the back, muttering, "For the first time, I feel that banning Apparition in Hogwarts is a mistake."

Professor McGonagall said with some doubt: "Such fluorescent flashes don't seem like something that a few first-year students can release. They don't have such powerful magic to release such dazzling beams of light!"

At this moment, Filch behind him shouted again: "Oh, and Wentworth!"

After hearing what Filch said, Snape and Professor McGonagall paused for a moment, and then ran towards the Forbidden Forest at a faster speed. Especially Professor McGonagall, she even used her Animagus transformation and turned into a cat, running towards the Forbidden Forest at a rapid speed.

At this time, Hagrid and others in the Forbidden Forest also saw the beam of light not far away.

Seeing the sudden beam of light, Ron belatedly asked, "Cool, Hagrid, what is that? What animal in the Forbidden Forest can emit such a dazzling light?"

Hagrid took out his umbrella and said worriedly:

"No animal in the Forbidden Forest can emit such a bright light. This is Lumos!"

Hermione said in disbelief, "What are you talking about? Lumos? Are you kidding me, Hagrid? Who can perform Lumos like this?"

Hagrid replied without turning his head:

"Wentworth will do, I suppose."

After saying that, Hagrid couldn't wait to walk towards the direction of the light column.

At this time, Wentworth and the other two were still circling around with the mysterious man in the Forbidden Forest.

But at this moment, as the distance between the two sides continued to get closer, the pain in the scar on Harry's forehead continued to increase.

Finally, the continuous pain made Harry unable to bear it any longer. His head tilted and he fainted.

Draco, who was originally holding Harry's hand and leading Harry forward, was caught off guard and was also pulled to the ground by Harry.

Hearing a scream from behind, Wentworth turned around and saw Draco and Harry falling to the ground at the same time.

At the same time, the mysterious man was getting closer and closer to the three people.

Draco looked at Wentworth and said anxiously:

"Wentworth, we can't leave Harry here!"

Wentworth rolled his eyes at Draco and said unhappily, "Do you even need to tell me that?"

Then, Wentworth turned around, facing the mysterious man who was already close at hand, raised his wand slightly, pointed it at the ground, and said, "Flames!"

As magic power gushed out, a wall of fire suddenly burned in front of Wentworth.

Moreover, the wall of fire continued to spread in the direction of Wentworth's wand, eventually forming a small circle of fire.

The mysterious man in the cloak was only one step away, but was blocked outside by the circle of fire released by Wentworth.

The blazing flames around him illuminated Wentworth's face, which was flickering, and Draco beside him exclaimed, "Well done, Wentworth. Who did you learn this from?"

Wentworth replied very calmly: "Principal Dumbledore!"

Draco: "...Why didn't you use it earlier? We wouldn't have to run so hard!"

After hearing what Draco said, Wentworth said helplessly: "You will be jailed for life if you set fire to the mountain. Do you understand? Besides, don't you realize that even we can't escape now?"

After hearing what Wentworth said and taking a look at the surrounding walls of fire, Draco's face turned pale instantly, and he asked with some trembling: "Wentworth, what should we do now?"

Wentworth spread his hands and said, "There's nothing we can do. We can only see whether the other party can break my spell faster or our reinforcements can arrive faster! After all, it's been a while since I asked for help. As long as we hold him back for a while, we can..."

However, before Wentworth could finish his words, the figure standing outside the fire wall just stretched out a finger. Then he gently moved it in the air, and a door appeared out of thin air in the fire wall in front of Wentworth!

It’s not that a real wooden door appeared in front of him, but that the fire wall in front of him suddenly went out for a distance, forming a door that could be entered and exited freely.

Seeing this, Wentworth couldn't help but swallow his saliva, then he showed a flattering smile and said, "Actually, this is all a misunderstanding. I'm not familiar with them. How about you guys chat first and I'll leave first?"

At the same time, Wentworth even put his hands behind his back, indicating that he had no intention of attacking again.

Seeing Wentworth's performance, Draco looked at him in disbelief. But at this moment, Draco saw Wentworth's fingers behind his back twitching wildly.

Wentworth pointed his finger across and then up to the sky, and Draco had an idea.

The figure opposite was also stunned, obviously not expecting Wentworth to say such a thing.

But at this moment, Wentworth's expression changed, and he suddenly squatted down, shouting, "Draco, do it!"

Draco raised his wand without hesitation and said loudly: "Hanging Bell!"
