Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 298: Deputy Minister of Horseshoe Print
When Hegra pulled Moon out of the basement, he ran into Hermione head-on.

At this moment, the little witch was standing at the stairs in a panic, holding two flying brooms.

"Come on! The broom I got is the one you use most!"

When Hermione saw Moon coming out, she handed him a broom without hesitation.

"Are you going somewhere far away?"

Moon subconsciously took the broom and looked up at Hagrid who was walking in front of him.

"Yes, in Hogsmeade."

Hagrid continued walking forward at a brisk pace as he spoke.

"So what do you ride?"

Seeing Hagrid's empty hands, Moon asked subconsciously.

The distance from Hogsmeade to the castle is not short, and it takes nearly an hour to travel by carriage.

"Don't worry, I've got a Thestral to help. Oh, be careful, kid."

Hagrid said as he supported the little wizard who was almost knocked down by him, and then continued to stride forward.

"We have to hurry, or Professor McGonagall might not be able to hold on."

Hagrid's words made Moon even more curious.

What does it mean that Professor McGonagall can't hold on?
It couldn't possibly be because of a fight with the unicorn.

After Hagrid led Moon and Hermione out of the school gate quickly.

Moon saw the Thestral feasting on food on the roadside.

Hagrid walked over and patted the Thestral's neck gently, then turned to look at Moon.

"You guys keep following me on your broomsticks. We have to hurry."

Hagrid said, and immediately stepped onto the back of the Thestral.

This skinny magical animal was instantly shortened by a lot.

Fortunately, Ye Qi managed to hold on again.

Then, it flapped its wings, ran forward slowly for two steps, and flew up in an instant.

"Hagrid, what happened? Why all the rush?"

Moon still rode his Sweeping Seven Stars and flew quickly to Hagrid's side.

Because we were in the air, air would be pumped in every time we opened our mouths to speak.

So Moon controlled the flying broom while putting his hand in front of his mouth and shouted at Hagrid.

"There's nothing we can do. The unicorn kicked the Deputy Minister of Magic, and Professor McGonagall is trying her best to appease him."

Hearing Hagrid say this, Moon understood instantly.

Although he had just heard Ron say yesterday that the unicorn started to go crazy and even attacked wizards.

But unexpectedly, the person injured was the Deputy Minister of Magic.

Such an incident will inevitably intensify the conflict.

"I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have involved you, but there's really no other way now."

I saw Moon looking thoughtful.

Hagrid struggled to maintain the Thestral's form and apologized to Moon.

"It's okay, but haven't you been spending a lot of time with unicorns? They don't listen to you either?"

After spending some time with Hagrid, Moon got to know the Forbidden Forest guard better and better.

Hagrid knows almost all the animals in the Forbidden Forest by heart, and they get along very well with them.

Logically speaking, the unicorns should not refuse Hagrid, who has taken care of them since they were young.

"I can't help it. The unicorns have a stress reaction to the Forbidden Forest. They run away when I get close."

Hagrid said as he pulled another piece of fresh steak from his pocket and stuffed it into the Thestral.

He was now also worried about the little guy and was unable to carry him to Hogsmeade.

"Okay, I can go and take a look first. If I can't persuade them, then there's nothing I can do."

Moon had never encountered such a situation before.

It could even be said that he had never actually come into contact with a living unicorn in this world.

The only time he came into contact with a unicorn was when he was in Snow Eagle Mountain in another world.

"Just try your best. If it doesn't work, I'll send you back."

Although Hagrid comforted Moon, he was also very worried.

He had been monitoring the unicorn for a full week.

They knew that if the unicorns could not be appeased this time, these magical creatures would most likely be relocated by the Ministry of Magic.

All Hagrid could do now was to trust Dumbledore.

In fact, when Hagrid went to see Dumbledore, he not only saw Bong-Bong.

A note was also found on Dumbledore's desk.

The note had Moon's name on it.

It was because of this note that he thought of going to Moon to solve the problem.

"Don't worry, we can do it."

Hermione was also controlling the flying broom at this time, trying to follow Moon.

The reason she followed this time was because she wanted to help deal with the unicorn problem.

Second, they were also worried that Moon would not be able to solve the problem.

After all, it has been a week since the unicorn went berserk.

Hundreds of adult wizards, including school professors and Aurors from the Ministry of Magic, were unable to solve the problem.

And now Hagrid actually asked for Moon by name, which made Hermione very worried.

Looking at Moon flying very easily in front, Hermione's expression became more and more nervous.

She didn't know if she was right to tell Hagrid that Moon was with Snape.

Now on the main road of Hogsmeade village.

The Aurors of the Ministry of Magic have divided the area into three danger zones.

Honeydukes, The Three Broomsticks, and Mrs. Puddifoot's Tea Shop.

These three places have become the unicorn's territory. Four Aurors are guarding outside each room, and no one is allowed to approach.

"These beasts must be moved away!"

In the heart of Hogsmeade village.

Umbridge, with a red and swollen horseshoe mark on her face, was arguing with Professor McGonagall.

Her voice was very loud, almost a roar.

Even from a very far distance, one could hear the anger in her words.

"Deputy Minister Umbridge, you should calm down. It's not time to move the unicorns yet."

"Professor McGonagall, I'm very calm now!"

Umbridge's hands were shaking as she spoke.

She has tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart.

"Now Hogwarts is no longer able to protect these beasts. They have invaded the property and houses of Hogsmeade wizards and have been accidentally seen by a dozen Muggles."

Umbridge roared madly, listing more than a dozen crimes committed by unicorns.

"This is a serious violation of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy and the Wizarding Property Preservation Act."

"In view of the above behavior, these animals must be relocated to the Hebrides."

The archipelago that Umbridge mentioned is located off the western coast of Scotland and consists of more than 40 small islands.

The Ministry of Magic used magic to repel Muggles to occupy the 10 small islands above and used them as gathering places for some rare magical creatures.

"That's absolutely not possible. The Hebrides are not suitable for unicorns to live in, and long-distance migration will inevitably result in casualties."

McGonagall knew full well that Umbridge had no genuine desire to obey the laws of the Ministry.

The Deputy Minister of Magic, who was kicked by the unicorn leader, just wanted revenge.

If you really agree, let the unicorns migrate to the Hebrides.

That would be equivalent to announcing the end of these magical animals.

There were no Hogwarts guards there.

This group of rare and magical creatures will inevitably be hunted by desperadoes.

After all, the materials on unicorns are very precious, and a unicorn can make a dark wizard earn thousands of gold galleons.

Now, just knowing that there is a conflict between the Ministry of Magic and the Forbidden Forest unicorn has attracted many dark wizards to Hogsmeade.

If these unicorns leave, things will definitely be even worse.

"I've asked Hagrid to find Dumbledore. I believe he can solve the problem as long as he comes."

Umbridge tried hard to suppress her anger when she heard Dumbledore's name.

"Professor McGonagall, I also fully recognize Professor Dumbledore's abilities."

Umbridge said as she stretched out her left hand and covered her face.

She wanted to cover up the purple-red horseshoe prints, but she couldn't cover them completely.

Then she angrily threw away the mirror in her right hand.

"If Dumbledore could handle the unicorn problem, he would have come long ago and would never have let these beasts go crazy. So it's best to follow the Ministry of Magic's method."

Upon hearing this, Mag froze on the spot.

She had gone to Dumbledore to discuss how to deal with the unicorn issue.

But I never meet him every time.

But this time the unicorn's behavior was too abnormal.

This kind of pure magical creature would never eat anything made by wizards in the past.

After all, to them, these foods are not truly pure.

Not only that, these unicorns also began to attack wizards.

In addition to the Deputy Minister of Magic, three Aurors were also kicked away by the unicorn.

This has never happened before.

"Deputy Minister Umbridge, even if Dumbledore can't handle it, I have already written to Master Newt. I believe that as long as he comes, he will be able to properly place the unicorn."

Noticing Professor McGonagall's hesitation, Professor Sprout immediately stepped forward.

In fact, it was Sprout who first discovered the unicorn problem.

She was in the Forbidden Forest repairing the damaged magical plants.

Unexpectedly, the unicorn was seen running around and escaping from the forbidden forest.

Recently, Sprout has been following Mag to deal with the unicorn issue.

"Master Newt?"

Umbridge knew exactly who Professor Sprout was talking about.

Newt Scamander.

The wizarding world's most famous magizoologist.

Even a former Dark Lord was captured by Newt.

"Okay, I'll give you one day. If you can't solve the problem, I'll have to move them all to the Hebrides."

"One day! How is that enough?"

"Professor McGonagall, you should be aware that unicorns have caused great damage to the wizarding world.

If they stay here for one more day, they will cause greater harm, so we must hurry up."

After hearing what Umbridge said, McGonagall was unable to refute it for a moment.

Professor Sprout, who was standing next to him, also became a little worried.

She just mailed the letter this morning.

Logically speaking, the owl should be able to deliver the letter to Master Newt's residence tonight.

As long as the letter can be seen, the problem can be solved by [Apparition].

But Master Newt is not someone who likes to stay in one place.

Sprout was not sure whether Master Newt would receive the letter and come immediately.

"Professor, I'm back!"

Just when the two professors were worried, Hagrid's voice suddenly came from the sky.
