Hagrid's big face was full of confusion, "There are people who do that kind of thing, why do you have to clean it yourself?"

Filch snorted twice, but instead of answering his question, he said to the little wizards, "I'll be back at dawn to clean up the wreckage for you!"

With that, he walked away.

Hagrid coughed twice and said, "Well, well, actually at Hogwarts, I am generally responsible for the Forbidden Forest."

Harry's eyes widened, "Hagrid, where have you been recently? We can't find you at all!"

Hagrid touched his head in embarrassment, "Um, I'm going to implement Secret No. 1."

"Is it guarding the Philosopher's Stone?" Harry asked curiously.

Hagrid's eyes widened, "Oh my god, can't you keep it a secret?! Isn't that really something the little wizard should know?"

Neville's mouth widened in surprise, "Magic, the Sorcerer's Stone?"

Harry looked at Neville and was also surprised, "You actually know about the Sorcerer's Stone?"

Neville looked at him in surprise, "Of course! It is said to be a magical item that can make the elixir of life. The only known magic stone in modern times is in the hands of the great alchemist Nico Flamel. Grandma read The Great Alchemy to me. She especially liked their optimistic and positive attitude towards life, a work by the artist Nico Flamel, "The Later Life of Mr. and Mrs. Flamel".

Harry's eyes widened, "He, is he famous?"

"Well, of course. Especially in the past few decades, the Flamel couple likes to write books about their experiences." Neville scratched his head, "Although those books are a bit expensive, they are really good."

Hermione looked at him suspiciously, "Really? But I don't seem to have seen those books?"

"Oh, their pen name is Mr. and Mrs. Flamel, and they are usually sold in limited quantities and the price is very high, usually 15 Galleons a copy." Neville explained, and then he looked at Hermione as if he had thought of something. "Well, if you like the works of the Flamel couple... how about I ask my grandma to send them to you?"

As he said this, his face turned slightly red.

Hermione was so happy that she cheered, "Thank you! Neville!"

"No, it's okay..." Neville whispered, seeming to be even more shy.

Hagrid interrupted their conversation angrily, "Okay! Stop talking about the Philosopher's Stone, okay? Dumbledore said that this matter is a secret! It's a secret!"

Harry and Hermione looked at each other, "What about Lu Wei?"

Hagrid felt weak all over, "Merlin, could you two please stop asking!"

"But...if someone knew how to deal with Lu Wei, wouldn't the Philosopher's Stone be in danger?" Harry said hurriedly, "You, you probably didn't tell others how to deal with Lu Wei, right?"

"No!" Hagrid's eyes widened, "Okay, now you are going to go for a walk in the Forbidden Forest with me, that's it! Don't ask random questions!"

"But..." Harry finally saw Hagrid and wanted to ask more about whether there were any other guards on the Philosopher's Stone, but Hagrid didn't want to say anything more and turned around and walked into the Forbidden Forest.

"Hagrid, don't be like this." Harry walked over and pulled the corner of his clothes. "You see, we are all very worried that someone will steal the Sorcerer's Stone..."

"We...we?" Hagrid shuddered, "How many people have you told about the Philosopher's Stone!"

"Ah, I heard it." Robert said, and then he saw Hagrid, a big man, fall down.

Hagrid walked in front with a dark face, and Harry followed him with an apologetic smile, as if he wanted to appease him, but what he didn't know was that Hagrid was angry with himself because he had agreed to keep secret number one. How many outsiders has he told about this alone?

But after they walked onto a black path in the Forbidden Forest, Hagrid's expression improved.

He held an oil lamp and illuminated the road ahead. Something seemed to be shining brightly on the low bushes.

"Did you see it? Those silver-white things?" Hagrid pointed to the bushes, "That's the unicorn's blood. It must have been seriously injured. This is the second time this week. Last week I found a dead unicorn in the Forbidden Forest, poor little guy, we must find it quickly."

His tone was full of anxiety. "Now, we divide our troops into two groups and search separately. There are bloodstains everywhere here. God, it must have been stumbling around here since last night."

"Then, Harry, Hermione and I will go this way. Robert, you take Neville and Fang..." Hagrid looked at Neville and found that the child was about to shake into chaff, "Uh..."

Hermione raised her hand, "Hagrid, take Neville with you. Robert and I will be ready together."

As soon as Neville heard that he was going to follow Hagrid, Neville's Parkinson's disease healed immediately.

Hagrid looked at the fat guy and patted his shoulder, "Show courage! Young man! Look, Hermione isn't even afraid!"

Neville smiled bitterly, this is really beyond my control!

"Alright Robert, you know, green means finding prey, red means asking for help." Hagrid gave a few instructions and hurriedly disappeared into the jungle with the two little boys.

The orange light disappeared as Hagrid left. Hermione was about to escape from the wand when she saw Robert taking out a lantern from his pocket.

It's a small one and quite cute.

After knocking on the lantern, orange light began to spread in the darkness, and after a while, the ground under my feet was illuminated.

"Is this also an alchemy item?" Hermione looked at the little lantern curiously. There was a fat ginger cat on the surface, which looked very cute.

Hermione said she loved this lantern!

"Well... it's a less successful work. It was originally planned to be cleaned up." Robert handed it to her, "You can play with it if you like, but it probably won't last too long..."

Hermione didn't quite understand, "Wouldn't life be too long?"

"It may not glow after a while." Robert explained, "Of course, you can use a glowing spell on it if you need to."

The little girl couldn't put it down, but she didn't want to accept it easily, "Well, how about I help you grind the powder next time?"

"Huh?" Robert blinked, "How do you know that I happen to be short of an assistant."

"Humph." The little girl didn't explain, she raised her chin, "That's it! This is my hard-earned money!"

Robert spread his hands and said, "Okay, I will listen to you."

The two followed Fangya and walked along the winding path. Occasionally they could see moss and fungi on the roadside. Hermione looked at them curiously and tried to identify their types.

"There is also Professor Sprout's breeding base here in the Forbidden Forest." Robert explained, "Occasionally she will go to the Forbidden Forest to find some special plants and try to cultivate them in a greenhouse."

"Special plants?" Hermione looked at him doubtfully, and then she remembered something, "Devil's net and mandrake?"

"Yes." Robert nodded, "There is indeed that kind of thing deep in the Forbidden Forest, but it is very dangerous. So, remember, when you see the path under your feet disappear, turn back quickly."
