270 Strange, dangerous, Fabian
The effect of pouring the cold water down was very effective, and Qiqi looked much more awake than before - the lion's head was raised slightly, his eyes opened again, and he saw clearly the few little guys who appeared inexplicably in front of him, and his huge mouth opened There was a slight gap, and finally a dull roar came out.
Perhaps because he rarely had contact with the Chimera at home, Steve's communication skills were not very proficient. He jumped up and down, imitated various movements, and made unexplained sounds from his mouth, which made people feel deeply. She was inexplicably anxious - because Qiqi's response was too little.
Fortunately, this time Qiqi was no longer as irritable as last time, which saved a lot of trouble.
After a while, Qiqi fell asleep again.
Several people looked at Steve.
"【strangeness】......"
Steve's expression was a little hesitant, as if he was pondering the meaning of Qiqi's words.
"There is still [danger]."
"These are the two words Qiqi is repeating."
"Does it refer to the Prewett brothers?" Lily asked quickly: "Does it refer to a specific person?"
Steve's expression became more complicated.
"I did ask this question, but Qiqi's answer has never changed. This should be referring to them, right?"
Several people looked at each other silently.
"It seems like this is it." Gaspard concluded: "Otherwise, Qiqi's answer will definitely change."
"This means..." Snape said with a gloomy face: "Is there really something wrong with Professors Prewett?"
He turned to look at Karan, thinking about what happened during the holidays again.
If Professor Prewett really had a problem, then the two of them could be considered lucky enough to have escaped disaster in the Gobstone shop.
"do not forget,"
At this time, Karan suddenly said: "This is just a suspicion. You must know that Professor Kettleburn reported this matter to Dumbledore a long time ago."
"And the words of a Chimera that can suddenly go crazy are not that trustworthy. We'd better be cautious."
"After all, they are professors."
As soon as they heard the word "caution", several people looked at Karan. Only Steve looked down at his waist - where the skin of the bird and snake was still tightly wrapped until now.
Although this is all in line with the meaning of caution, several people always have an indescribable weird feeling in their hearts.
"Then is there any relationship between them and the secret room?"
Snape frowned and asked, "Are they the heirs?"
Karan did not answer this question because he did not know how the heir was able to attack the students.
On the way to the Forbidden Forest, he went to check Hagrid's yard. The roosters there were still alive and well, and none of them were harmed.
Could it be that the basilisk suddenly became unafraid of the crowing of the rooster?Kahlan also doesn't remember Voldemort possessing this magical ability.
The most important thing is that Karan never noticed that the bathroom suddenly started leaking. This still didn't seem like a sign of the basilisk.
"Would you like to cast the clear water like spring spell again?" At this time, Lily suggested to Karan.
Karan shook his head: "Qiqi's coma is so severe that the Clear Water Spring Curse won't have much effect. Unless we feed it a sobering agent, we won't be able to find out anything."
"Then forget it." Lily replied immediately. She would not let a few people put themselves in danger again. Just breaking into the Forbidden Forest was already risky enough.
So they had to go back into the suitcase one by one, planning to return to the castle first.
Just as Kalanti slipped the collar of Steve who didn't want to go back, his movements suddenly paused.
"Let's stay a little longer," Steve begged, still nagging: "It's finally our time to come to the Forbidden Forest, and there are no dangers like last year. Maybe we can try to find Larry, who is a one-horned man." Beast, it will definitely like Lily...um...um..."
Karan covered his mouth without letting go, looking towards the distant forest through the invisibility cloak.
It didn't take long for him to see a small area of trees shaking again. It couldn't have been caused by the breeze.
"Something is approaching here!"
Karan said quickly, he stuffed Steve into the suitcase, and after hesitating for a second, he threw the broom in.
"You guys keep quiet."
He said to the people inside the box who were looking up at him: "I will hide you with you first, and be ready to throw the broom to me at any time."
Then he immediately took his suitcase and hid under the invisibility cloak. Unfortunately, he couldn't hide completely this time. The depression was very large and the surrounding woods were bare, making it difficult to hide as easily as in the summer.
So he had no choice but to hide behind a medium-sized stone. After hearing the footsteps getting closer, he showed his head slightly and looked outside. At the same time, he opened the suitcase and turned the mouth of the suitcase outward, which made the contents inside A few people could see what was happening outside by raising their heads.
Finally, the figure was revealed behind a thick tree.
Lily covered her mouth in surprise.
It was the red-haired Professor Prewett.
After Karan's previous reminder, several people looked at each other's wrists.
A gold watch is being worn there.
Apparently, this should be Fabian, the younger brother of the Prewett brothers.
And during the last Quidditch match, he was also the one who sneaked into the girls' bathroom where Meadows became a late bloomer.
But the difference from the last time was that Fabian's stay in the depression was no longer so short. Instead, he was wandering around and seemed to have no intention of leaving in a short time.
His movements were very careful, as if he was trying to avoid waking up Qiqi by making too much noise.
But why did he appear here?
Karan couldn't help but frowned, and the people in the box were also a little confused.
It seems that Professor Fabian is not here for Qiqi. His target from the beginning has been the depression - the place where the Acromantula once lived.
Karan remembered that at Fire Crab Club gatherings, his brother Gideon often impersonated Fabian, but he had never seen Fabian impersonate Gideon.
Did he spend his extra time on this?
For things like exploring castles and forbidden forests?
This surreptitious behavior would have made sense if it were the future brothers Fred and George Weasley, who never stopped exploring the castle and the Forbidden Forest and had fun breaking school rules.
But Karan had no time to think about these things.
Because after a little investigation, Fabian had already walked towards the stone she was hiding.
