After this long and thrilling night, when Harry Potter got up the next morning, he saw the exchange students of demstrom in the hall. They sat next to Gryffindor''s table. When the trio had dinner, they could even hear the conversation from the opposite side.


    "Hey! You know what? There''s an interesting forest behind this school," whispered a big wizard.


    "What is this school? It''s Hogwarts!" Hermione whispered angrily to the trio. "They''re so rude!"


    Harry turned his head, saw the little man (Yakov) on the duel platform in the sky and said to the big man who had just opened his mouth, "that''s the forbidden forest, the forbidden area of this school. It is said that the history is very long and there are many kinds of magical creatures... There are many strange things there - werewolves, I heard."


    "Werewolf!" whispered the demstrom exchange students.


    This reminds Harry of his first night in contact with the forbidden forest. At that time, Neville also said so, but Neville said so with tears and fear. His voice was like a lump in his throat. These exchange students of demstrom are very excited to mention the legend of werewolves in the forbidden forest.


    Harry Potter heard a very familiar smell in this tone, which Gryffindor is most familiar with - the omen of trouble.


    "Cool!" Yakov shouted, "are they trying to protect werewolves? We in Russia don''t know how to protect werewolves. I heard my father say that werewolves in Siberia and Ukraine were still very common at that time, and then they gradually disappeared!"


    "Muggles killed all of them!" his big companion added.


    "Muggles are terrible... At that time, those Muggles would carry guns and go into the forest in winter to hunt bears and werewolves. They found werewolves who had nowhere to look for food in winter. They were usually led by alpha wolves, and then killed them all, pulling off the werewolf''s skin to make coats." the big man added.


    "It is said that there are many other protected magical animals in the forbidden forest, such as horse man and unicorn, eight eyed giant spider and Eagle headed horse winged beast... That''s great! Keep these small animals in the back of the school, not far from the school... It would be great if we demstrom could do the same!" Yakov sincerely praised.


    Hermione finally broke in: "you know the forbidden forest, but you don''t know how dangerous it is... Those dangerous magical animals..."


    "Danger?" Yakov nodded: "It''s really dangerous... We must not be caught by professors and people from the Ministry of magic. You know, the magic animal protection law here is very strict, and those magic animals are in a very dangerous situation... Many are going to be extinct! Those tall and strong horse people, the crazy werewolves on the night of the full moon, and giant monsters, the largest mountain monster among giant monsters!"


    "Oh, my God! My dream is to hunt a mountain monster!" a strong Slavic said in surprise: "I''ve killed enough smelly and greasy things like deep divers! A mountain monster... I can inlay its head on the wall next to my fireplace."


    "It''s illegal to hunt mountain monsters!" Yakov warned him.


    "So I just want to play with it!"


    Hermione''s warning didn''t have any effect. It seemed that the exchange students of demstrom were just more fascinated. Until they finished breakfast, they were still talking about the wonderful magical animals, their fangs, claws, venom and lethality. Harry felt as if five or six Hagrid came together and all his eyes glowed.


    "They will certainly go on a night tour to the Forbidden Forest tonight!" Hermione concluded.


    Harry and Ron agreed with her very much, but Hermione then said, "so we''re going to tell Professor McGonagall!"


    "How can that?" Ron almost jumped up. "I''m not a traitor. Think about it. If someone told the professor during our night tour... I''ll break up with him!"


    "But you have no friendship with them," Hermione pointed out calmly.


    "It''s not our turn to snitch!" Ron said angrily. "There are many people like you... Only tell the professor and report to the professor. Gryffindor is never afraid..."


    "If we don''t tell the professor... They may die!" Hermione said again.


    "I think..." Ron said eagerly, "we should follow them and protect their safety. Last time we went to the forbidden forest, this time we had time to stop them!"


    Hermione understood as soon as she saw Harry''s eyes. She said nervously, "Harry, you won''t agree with him, will you?"


    When night fell, Gryffindor''s lounge became quiet. The door of Harry''s dormitory opened silently. At the door of the lounge, the fat woman was sleeping. She was awakened and exclaimed, "who is it? Who is there?" But there was no one in front of the open door. The subtle sound of rubbing her feet against the ground extended to the corridor, where Hermione suddenly got out of the side and said to the empty air, "I knew you wouldn''t give up."


    Suddenly a man''s head came out of the air. Ron whispered, "Hermione? How did you find us?"


    Hermione sneered, "you''re stepping on the salt on the ground!" Ron noticed that there was a line sprinkled with salt on the ground. Hermione took the lead and explained: "salt has an indissoluble bond with wizards in Muggle culture. They think salt is sacred, can drive away evil spirits and stop demons... That should be the reason."


    "It can be used to make some invisible things appear... Muggles use it to protect themselves."


    When Harry and they came to Hagrid''s cabin in front of the forbidden forest, they found the demstrom students without difficulty. Four of them escaped from Hogwarts Castle quickly, and Hermione met them first.


    "Hey! Look what I found? A group of like-minded people!" Yakov was overjoyed.


    The big man opened his arms: "welcome to join our forbidden forest exploration team!"


    "I''m not here to join you," Hermione said angrily. "Do you know how dangerous it is here? Werewolves will bite your throat and eight eyed spiders will inject poison into your body."


    "Eight eyed giant spider?" Ron screamed.


    Harry quickly covered his mouth and whispered, "don''t wake Hagrid!" the demstrom students whispered, "it''s not safe here. Let''s go in."


    Hermione''s eyes widened to refute, but Harry had pulled struggling Ron into the forbidden forest. Ron struggled and shouted, "you didn''t tell me there were spiders in the Forbidden Forest!"
