Chapter 249 Entering the Forbidden Forest



In the gloomy night, a flash of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by a loud thunder! Following the thunder, countless raindrops fell from the sky a moment later.

Seeing this, Quirrell didn't bother to scold Cassandra, and hurriedly tried to wrap Voldemort with the turban again, but was rejected by Voldemort.

"No need! I'm not that fragile!"

I don’t know if Cassandra’s words just now irritated Voldemort, but Voldemort firmly rejected Quirrell’s proposal.

Then, Voldemort looked at Cassandra and said with a cold gaze: "You will regret this, little girl!"

At the moment when the thunder sounded, Wentworth in front of Hogwarts Castle suddenly stood up and said, "It's almost time, let's go!"

Hearing Wentworth's words, Green and Cedric naturally stood up and followed without hesitation, while Harry said to Ron and others: "You stay here, I can go by myself!"

But Harry's proposal was unanimously rejected by the other three. Ron and Draco both said that they wanted to go with Harry.

Seeing this, Harry felt a warm current in his heart, but at this time, Hermione stepped forward and said, "No, we can't go together. Harry and I will go together, and Draco and Ron will stay!"

Hearing Hermione's words, Draco immediately asked back:

"Why?! If I go, at least I can have an extra helper! No, I must go!"

Seeing Draco's intense reaction, Hermione thought for a moment, quietly glanced at Wentworth who was about to leave not far away, and whispered in Draco's ear:

"Draco, you have a more important mission! I always feel that Wentworth suddenly summoned Harry here and wanted to help Harry get revenge for no reason. There must be other reasons! Wentworth must be hiding something from us!"

Hearing Hermione's words, Draco looked at Hermione in shock. He was about to say something, but was stopped by Hermione's eyes. Then, Hermione continued, "You stay in Hogwarts. If we can't return safely before tomorrow morning, you must tell Headmaster Dumbledore everything that happened today! I hope... by then... it will still be in time!"

After hearing Hermione's words, Draco was silent for a moment, but finally nodded and agreed.

On the other side, Ron saw Hermione and Draco whispering together. For some reason, Ron always felt a little uncomfortable!

Seeing that Hermione and Draco had finished talking, Ron deliberately said, "Hermione, you can't order me around! Harry is my good brother. No matter what danger lies ahead, I won't let him face it alone!"

Hearing Ron's words, Hermione sighed and leaned over to Ron's ear and said:

"I left Draco here on purpose. Don't forget, Voldemort is from Slytherin, and so is Draco! A large portion of the former Death Eaters were also from Slytherin!"

"Although I don't want anything to happen to Draco, we have to be on guard! You need to stay, first, to watch over Draco, and second, if anything unexpected happens to us, you must tell Headmaster Dumbledore what happened today!"

Hearing Hermione's words and smelling the faint fragrance of Hermione's hair, Ron thought about it and finally agreed.

So, in the end, Harry and Hermione walked forward together and stood behind Wentworth.

Seeing that they had already decided on the candidate, Wentworth no longer hesitated and took the lead, heading towards the Forbidden Forest.

After just a few steps, raindrops began to fall from the sky. Seeing this, Cedric immediately took out his wand, and then a translucent air flow spurted out from Cedric's wand, and then the air flow slowly dispersed in the shape of an umbrella.

In this way, Draco and Ron, who stayed where they were, watched Wentworth and others gradually disappear into the Forbidden Forest.

As soon as they entered the Forbidden Forest, Wentworth suddenly said, "Green, you walk at the back, be prepared for someone to suddenly attack us from behind!"

After hearing Wentworth's order, Green walked to the back of the team without saying a word.

Afterwards, the whole team became Wentworth and Cedric walking in the front, while Green brought up the rear, and the three of them together protected Harry and Hermione in the middle.

Seeing this, Harry's originally nervous expression relaxed a little.

However, Hermione, who was beside Harry, looked him up and down and felt even more nervous.

Because in Hermione's view, Wentworth's move can be seen as a protection for herself and Harry, but from another perspective, isn't it also surrounding herself and Harry? From the beginning of today, Hermione has been suspicious of Wentworth's motives!

From Wentworth's words, Hermione knew that Wentworth had known for a long time that there was something wrong with Professor Quirrell, but Wentworth had neither reported it to Headmaster Dumbledore nor made any response.

But today, Harry was suddenly summoned and told the truth. The one who had always wanted to kill Harry was Professor Quirrell.

Hermione felt that Wentworth must be hiding something from Harry.

Thinking of this, Hermione subconsciously tightened her wand.

As he went deeper, just as Wentworth was looking for any trace of Quirrell or Voldemort, suddenly, a poisonous snake fell from the treetop in front of Wentworth.

Wentworth stopped and saw the poisonous snake spit out its venom at him. Then it turned around and swaggered away in another direction.

Seeing this, Wentworth followed without hesitation and walked in the direction of the venomous snake.

After a while, as the scene in front of them suddenly became clear, Qi Luo's figure appeared before everyone.

Wentworth's gaze stayed on Quirrell for less than a second. The next moment, Wentworth cast his gaze behind Quirrell, where Cassandra seemed to be bound to a tree by some invisible object, unable to move, and her mouth was sealed by a spell.

At this time, Quirrell suddenly said: "You are here, Wentworth Grindelwald!"

The first person to react after hearing Quirrell's words was Hermione. She was so shocked that she had to cover her mouth with both hands to prevent herself from screaming.

At this time, Wentworth said calmly: "Quirrel, at Hogwarts, I will respect you as a professor, but here, you are just Tom Riddle's dog!"

"I am Wentworth Grindelwald, the heir of the Grindelwald family and the leader of the Witch Party. What qualifications do you have to stand in front of me and speak?!"
