"There are still a lot of them there. We at least wasted one Galleon."
Fred held up the hem of his robe, using it as a large pocket, which was filled with a small mountain of silver "moon sand".
George next to him has the same style, which makes them look like two kangaroos.
Kyle didn't say anything, just responded perfunctorily.
The main reason is that I really don't have much energy. It's already very late. After the initial novelty of seeing the Moon Beast dancing wore off, the sleepiness from staying up late started to come over me.
Now he just wanted to go back to the dormitory and have a good sleep in the warm and comfortable bed.
When they arrived at the edge of the forbidden forest, they suddenly heard a dog barking and heavy footsteps not far away.
Hagrid!
Several people were frightened and immediately lay down on the spot.
Kyle also took out his invisibility cloak as quickly as possible.
Although the cloak seemed a little small for five people and could not completely cover everyone, fortunately this was the forbidden forest, and the lush bushes around it also served as a good cover.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and they could already clearly see Hagrid's huge figure.
Kyle was lying at the front with his invisibility cloak propped up, so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe.
"Who's there? Come out!" Hagrid stopped near them with a dim oil lamp in his hand. "I see you!"
Behind Hagrid, the black hound Fang also came.
It lowered its head and sniffed the ground, moving closer and closer to where Kyle and the others were hiding.
For a moment, everyone's heart was in their throat, and they all covered their mouths with their hands, trying hard not to make any sound.
Yaya came closer and closer, and soon the distance between them was less than one meter. Kyle could even clearly see its small black eyes and the saliva dripping from its mouth.
"Did you find anything?"
Hagrid also noticed Fang's strangeness. He walked over with an oil lamp and shouted, "I don't care who you are, but this is Hogwarts, not a place where people like you can come casually!"
"Leave quickly before I lose my temper. If I catch you, you'll be in trouble!"
Somehow, after hearing Hagrid's voice, Fang hesitated for a while and then suddenly changed direction and walked towards the depths of the Forbidden Forest.
Hagrid followed closely behind it, passing by Kyle and others.
Time passed bit by bit, until the footsteps completely disappeared, Kyle and the others finally relaxed, lying on the ground gasping for breath.
"How exciting!" Cedric said with a flushed face, "Merlin's beard, I just touched Hagrid's shoes, and he almost stepped on my hand!"
"Oh, damn." Fred, who had just gotten up from the ground, suddenly screamed, looked at the sticky liquid on his hand, and said with a bitter face: "I think I touched the dog's saliva."
"You should be thankful that you only touched saliva." George said with lingering fear: "Hagrid looked so scary at the time. If he caught us, it might not be as simple as being put in solitary confinement."
As he said this, George shuddered.
It was the first time he saw Hagrid so angry, and the overwhelming feeling of oppression made him shudder just thinking about it now.
"Thanks so much to you this time." Kyle patted Fred and George on the shoulders.
If they hadn't carried a lot of Moon Maniac Beast feces to confuse Yaya's sense of smell, they wouldn't have gotten away so easily.
After this accident, the few of them didn't dare to delay any longer. While Hagrid was still in the Forbidden Forest, they packed up their things briefly and ran quickly towards the castle.
The people who came to the exit of the secret passage did not rush in, but took out the Marauder's Map. After confirming that Filch's location was not on the first floor, they passed through the secret passage one after another and returned to the castle.
Perhaps they were frightened by what had just happened. On the way back, they looked very nervous.
Cedric felt his heart beating fast and couldn't help but say, "Kyle, you said we won't be caught, right?"
"It's okay. If we're discovered, we'll just run separately." Kyle whispered, "This way he won't know who to chase."
"But..." Kanna said with a trembling voice: "I, I run slowly, what should I do?"
"I see, that's indeed a problem." Kyle thought for a moment and said, "How about this, if you are discovered, just run upstairs."
"Won't we get caught if we run upstairs?" Kanna asked puzzledly.
"No, it's not safe to run upstairs..." Kyle shook his head and explained, "But then Filch will chase you, and Cedric and I can take the opportunity to run back to the common room."

Kanna's eyes gradually became dull, and then turned into anger in a very short time.
But Kyle knew nothing about this, and he was still whispering: "Catch one and run away with two, it's a good deal."
Kanna gritted her teeth and said, "Then why was I the one who was arrested?"
"Hmm...it's simple." Kyle thought for a moment and said, "If someone has to be hurt, why can't it be you?"
Somehow, Kanna was no longer nervous. She silently took out her wand and looked up and down Kyle's back, as if trying to find a suitable place to poke.
The most prominent feature of the serpentine wood wand is its hardness. According to Ollivander, in some extreme situations, the serpentine wood wand can even be used as a close-range weapon.
Kyle felt a chill on his back and subconsciously quickened his pace.
…
Without any accidents, the three of them returned to the common room smoothly.
That's for sure.
Kyle had noticed as early as when he was looking at the Marauder's Map at the entrance of the secret passage that the professors were all sleeping in their rooms, and Filch, the night patroller, was also on the eighth floor.
The distance from the Great Hall to the Hufflepuff common room is not far, and it will only take a few minutes if you walk quickly.
There's not enough time for Filch to run down there.
Therefore, Cedric and Connor's worries along the way were completely unnecessary.
"Good night, see you tomorrow." Kyle yawned and went back to the dormitory.
He had originally planned to go to the kitchen to find something to eat when he came back, but as soon as he entered the common room, he couldn't hold on any longer.
My eyelids started to droop and my head felt dizzy. I just wanted to have a good sleep.
"Good night."
“Hmph~~”
