Chapter 113 Scared?

"The invisibility cloak doesn't work all the time, especially in front of some powerful wizards."

"Although I don't know yet whether they discovered this through the abnormalities around the invisibility cloak, or whether they can see directly through the invisibility cloak."

After explaining in a low voice, Karan untied the silence spell cast on Steve and added a new red mark on his forehead.

"You mean, Dorcas is powerful enough to see through the Invisibility Cloak?" Steve asked in shock. He deliberately lowered his voice while continuing to rub his forehead gently.

This was a new "reminder" that Karan added for him because his previous questions were too loud, but after hearing the explanation of the invisibility cloak, he no longer cared about this.

The possibility of the invisibility cloak being discovered exceeds everything else, and this may be related to his future night travel plans, although in fact he has already been doing something more dangerous than this.

"maybe."

Karan said: "Although we are not really sure yet, it is better for us to be careful. In any case, Professor Meadows is an extremely powerful wizard. This is what you reminded me of first."

When saying this, Karan couldn't help but smile.

But Steve showed some fear: "Fortunately I haven't gone on a night tour in the castle, otherwise it would be terrible if I was discovered."

"Okay, let's go quickly." Karan urged: "If it's too late, Gaspard will have to go find the professors."

The two of them walked out from behind the tall pumpkin.

Karan held the wand and walked ahead.

Steve carried the suitcase and followed him in small steps.

However, not before they could get beyond the fence.

"boom."

With the sound of this slight sound, Karan immediately stopped and pointed the wand to his left front.

There was nothing there except the big pumpkin that Meadows had slapped earlier.

But the touch from his arm told Karan that there must be someone on the other side.

Steve obviously heard the sudden sound in the silence. After being stunned for a moment, he immediately thought of the experience when the two of them sneaked into the Forbidden Forest for the first time.

He looked at Karan with wide eyes, pointed to the opposite side with his free hand, and then pointed to the Forbidden Forest.

Karan nodded silently and motioned for him to take two steps back.

The atmosphere became tense again.

Karan kept holding the wand in his hand, fighting silently with the air.

And there seemed to be no more unnecessary movements from the other side.

But after a while, there was suddenly a slight questioning sound.

"Steve Scamander"

This is James' voice.

It seemed that through his previous behavior of secretly following Steve to the castle kitchen, he had confirmed the owner of another invisibility cloak in the school.

The two looked at each other silently.

Karan didn't speak, he turned and gestured to Steve.

Steve nodded, and he asked softly: "James Potter"

"It's me." James replied.

Steve replied: "I'm Scamander."

The two sides suddenly became speechless again, and the atmosphere turned from stagnant to awkward.

After all, this was not the right situation for a conversation, especially when both parties were violating school rules.

But Steve still showed his strong communication skills.

"The pumpkin that Professor Meadows slapped just now is the one behind you."

The other side was silent for a while.

It seems that Steve's communication ability is more suitable for magical animals, which does not include humans at the moment.

"Yes."

James sounded as if he was sighing: "I originally planned to cast the shrinking spell on some pumpkins, but unexpectedly Professor Meadows walked over directly."

"By the way, it scared you so much that you forgot that you were wearing an invisibility cloak and missed the best time to escape." At this time, another slightly mocking laugh came from the other side.

"Aren't you the same, and you still talk about me?"

"I was listening carefully to the conversation between them. There wasn't much information about the Forbidden Forest. When I came to my senses, I couldn't remind you anymore. This invisibility cloak couldn't cover the voices."

There was a little noise from the other side.

"Sirius Black" Steve asked suspiciously.

"Yes, it's me."

Sirius, who was hiding under another invisibility cloak, replied, and asked by the way: "By the way, do you know what Professor Meadows said about the Forbidden Forest?"

It seemed that after experiencing the "stalking in the kitchen" incident, he had figured out Steve's temperament.He didn't intend to beat around the bush anymore, but asked directly what he wanted to ask.

But Steve didn't answer immediately. He turned to look at Karan.

Karan shook his head.

"I don't know."

Steve whispered back: "This is also the first time I've heard about this."

"Okay then." Sirius did not continue to ask further.

"Are you going to cast the shrinking spell on these pumpkins?"

"Well, let's forget it. I suddenly feel that these pumpkins look quite pleasing to the eye."

"Ha, you are actually afraid of Professor Meadows"

"Humph, how could that be right? You didn't hear clearly what she just whispered. It seemed like... a growth spell."

"Don't change the subject like that, man. Admit it, it's nothing to be ashamed of."

"Where should we go next? Is it better to go to the Black Lake or go directly back to the castle?"

"You look terrible like this. This is not how a Quidditch star should behave. It will make you unable to grab the Quaffle at the beginning."

"It's better to go back to the castle. Maybe we can go to the fourth floor and try to make those armors move. They have been quiet for too long and will rust if they don't move."

"Stop trying to escape... Well, this is a good idea. It can also cause trouble for that old guy Filch. I think his cat has been unhappy for a long time. The last time he went out at night, he was actually... It’s such a shame that it was caught.”

The conversation between James and Sirius got farther and farther away from the two people inside the fence. They even changed their direction midway, and finally walked further towards the castle.

"I'm quite afraid of Dorcas, too."

After a while, Steve shrugged and said, "But I've never felt ashamed."

"That's good."

Karan said lightly, causing Steve to immediately turn his head and stare.

He vaguely felt that Karan's words were not good words.

But Karan ignored him.

"It looks like Hogwarts won't be too peaceful tonight."

Karan whispered, even smiling a little.

"I don't know how many points Gryffindor will be deducted when we wake up tomorrow morning."

"No matter how many dunks there are, it's useless." Steve sighed: "It's not Hufflepuff's turn to win the Academy Cup anyway."

"Let's go, it's been taking so long."

Steve kept urging. He really didn't expect that tonight would be so twists and turns.

The two set off again.

When passing Hagrid's cabin, Karan glanced at it casually.

Andromeda was attacked.

Hagrid didn't know.

Then, Karan turned his attention to the dark forbidden forest again.
