Cassandra tugged at Lycos's sleeve and pulled him out of the door of the last carriage. Then, with a bang, Harry and Ron fell into the carriage together.

“Hiss… It hurts so much, so much, so much!”

Ron got up from the ground and rubbed his head where he had hit the wall.

Harry rubbed his thigh while carefully checking his Nimbus 2000. He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the broom was not damaged.

Lycos stared at the scene in a daze, then turned back to look at Cassandra silently:

"So you can just use a spell to pull me in..."

So what does it mean to reach out?

But before Lycos could finish his words, Cassandra's face turned stern and she walked to the corridor next to the box.

"Stop gossiping and go find that house elf."

After saying that, she trotted out of the carriage, covering her hot face all the way, and found an empty compartment and went in, then locked the door with a "click".

Lycos: “…”

I haven't asked yet, are you sure...

"Hayden, thank you so much for your help just now." At this time, Harry reacted first and said to Lecos while panting, "I almost thought we were going to be expelled from Hogwarts..."

"It's a pity I didn't have time to pack my luggage," Ron said with some regret. "The complete set of Gobstones I finally got is still in the box."

"Don't worry about your Gobstones. Our textbooks are all in the trunk," Harry said helplessly. "I'm just wondering how to explain this to Professor McGonagall."

"It's okay, just tell the professor the truth." Lycos glanced at them and said casually, "They will help find someone to send your luggage back to Hogwarts."

He glanced at the two of them again, then closed the carriage door and walked to the corridor next to the compartment.

The most important thing now is to find Dobby, otherwise who knows what tricks he will play to prevent Harry Potter from going to school!

……

The Hogwarts Express was still moving quickly, and London had been left far behind. In its place was a flat green field, then a vast purple swamp, and villages...

Lycos walked through several carriages, trying to recall which carriage he had first found the compartment in.

It seems to be located relatively close to the front, but I can't remember the exact number. It seems I need to look for it section by section...

At this time, the sky had gradually darkened and the train was passing a snow-covered mountain. The steam gushing from the front of the train merged with the snow on the top of the mountain. Just looking at it made one feel refreshed.

This high mountain indicated that they had reached Scotland and should be not far from Hogwarts Castle.

However, just when Lycos was about to walk into the next carriage, the entire train suddenly shook violently!

"What happened?"

"What happened?"

"..."

There was a noisy discussion coming from the surrounding boxes. Some people opened their doors and stuck their heads out to check the situation.

Lycos almost fell down and had to hold on to the door frame to keep steady.

His heart sank, and he felt something was wrong...

Sure enough, there was shaking again and again, each time more violent than the last.

There was a sharp sound of metal friction and the train began to slow down, but the accompanying shaking did not stop for a moment.

"Everyone go back to your seats and don't move!"

A senior student wearing a prefect badge hurried into the carriage. His voice was very urgent and loud, obviously using an amplification spell.

"The train ahead is missing tracks and is now making an emergency stop... Everyone, hold on tight to prevent any accidents!"

Lycos, who was standing at the junction of two train cars, was soon spotted by a prefect and was forcibly pressed into a compartment nearby.

"Stay here and don't move!"

The class leader gave a quick instruction and continued to run to other carriages to inform everyone about safety matters one by one.

Lycos rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, feeling a little annoyed.

This little elf Dobby really dares to do anything... In order to prevent one person from going to school, he actually dared to force an entire train to stop?

"Hello... I'm Cedric Diggory from Hufflepuff. Which house are you from?" At this time, a gentle voice sounded beside him.

Lycos turned his head and saw a handsome and tall boy sitting next to him with a thick book in his hand.

Because it was still some distance from Hogwarts, Lecos did not change into his school robes, so he did not have the green collar that was unique to Slytherin.

Cedric couldn't tell his house was normal.

"Hello, Diggory, I'm Lecos Hayden from Slytherin House." Lecos nodded to Cedric.

He didn't expect that he would see a famous character from the original novel in a random box he entered.

"The train is in this state now, and you're still reading?" Lycos glanced at the book in Cedric's hand, looking a little surprised. "Aren't you worried about the train derailing?"

As if to verify Lycos's words, the train shook violently again, and the book in Cedric's hand was shaken onto the table.

"Just sit tight and you'll be fine." Cedric shook his head slowly. "I happened to read the instruction manual for the Hogwarts Express last semester..."

"This train is protected by magic. If special circumstances arise, the Muggle train's propulsion system will be disabled and replaced with magical propulsion. So there's no need to worry about any major problems."

"This is the first time I've heard of this..." Lycos heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this explanation.

However, the next moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the front of the train.

"boom--"

What followed was an unprecedented huge shake, which spread throughout the entire train in an instant... Then, the entire carriage began to tilt to one side!

From the carriage came the panicked screams of the little wizards, as well as the cries of prayer for their parents...

……

Chapter 113 It’s getting dark

"So... can the train's magical propulsion prevent it from overturning?"

Lycos grabbed the armrest of the seat to prevent himself from falling out, and looked back at Cedric.

"It should be...okay, right?" Cedric was obviously a little uncertain.

He was now tightly gripping the armrest of the chair beside him, not even paying attention to the book he was reading, and could only let it slide down the table...

"This is not the way to go..."

Seeing that the tilt angle of the carriage was getting bigger and bigger, Lycos frowned tightly.

He suddenly looked at his other arm that was not holding the handrail, and realized that he was still holding two broomsticks borrowed from Draco, so he quickly made up his mind.

"Cedric, you should be able to fly, right?"

Lecos knew very well that although Cedric had not yet joined the Quidditch team, he would be a good Quidditch player in the future.

So without waiting for Cedric to respond, he tossed one of the Nimbus 2001s to him.

"It's almost too late. Let's fly out of here first and consider other things after it's completely safe."

Lycos quickly let go of the handrail, used flying magic to lift himself up imperceptibly, then sat steadily on the broom and flew out of the window.

Seeing this, Cedric no longer hesitated. He took the broom thrown from the air and flew out of the window following Lecos... His flying movements were obviously much more skillful than Lecos's.

The two flew into the air and looked at the Hogwarts Express, which was tilting to one side.

Unlike a normal derailment and overturning, at this moment, white lights lit up on the train carriages, forming various complex runic characters, thus generating a reaction force, pulling the overturned carriages back onto the track.

"It seems the train's magical power is actually effective." Cedric breathed a sigh of relief. "Lex, it seems we've been worrying too much. Actually, we should just stay in the carriage."

"I hope so." Lycos pursed his lips, the bad feeling in his heart still lingering.

Dobby is just a house-elf. Protecting wizards should be the rule ingrained in the minds of this race. Can it really do something like overturning a train?

You know, this train carries nearly a thousand students, and they all represent the future of the wizarding world!

"Cedric, I need to find someone... Can you do me a favor?" Lycos turned his head to look at Cedric and asked.

He felt that the most important thing now was to find Draco, have him call Dobby out, and find out whether it was it that did it.

"Of course, you say." Cedric nodded.

"I need you to help me find someone. He should be in a few nearby carriages." Lycos said, "He has light blond hair and is usually accompanied by two chubby guys. He shouldn't be difficult to find..."

"Are you talking about the new student from the Malfoy family last year?" Cedric pondered. "No problem, I seem to have some impression of him... Haha, he's usually quite high-profile."

After that, the two men split up into two groups and flew back and forth near the windows of several surrounding carriages, trying to identify the various figures in the compartments as quickly as possible, trying to find any trace of Draco.

Fortunately, because of the accident that just happened, most of the boxes opened the curtains and wanted to see what happened.

This made it much easier for the two of them to find someone...

"Lexus, here—"

Cedric was indeed a future player who could become a seeker. Within a few minutes, he accurately spotted Draco, Crabbe and Goyle in a compartment of a carriage.

Lycos responded and turned the broom around, coming to the window of the box where Cedric was.

At the same time, the Hogwarts Express also adjusted the angle of the carriage back to normal with the help of the runes attached to the body and complex driving magic.

The major crisis that was about to overturn was finally eliminated without any danger...

"Draco, open the window!" Lycos knocked on the window.

"Lex, you're finally back!" Draco pushed up the window of the box as if he had seen a relative. "Let me tell you, it was really terrible just now..."

It can be seen that Draco was indeed very frightened just now.

The luggage in the compartment was scattered all over the floor, and the snacks and drinks on the table were spilled everywhere. Crabbe and Goyle huddled in the corner of the compartment, shivering, their faces as pale as chalk dust.

"It should be fine now. You don't have to be so nervous." Lycos comforted him and immediately got to the point: "But I need you to help me with something..."

"What?" Draco asked confusedly.

"Try calling Dobby again to see if he's nearby," Lycos said.

"But I just told it to go home. It's impossible for it to disobey my order." Draco questioned.

"It's okay. It won't hurt to try." Lycos shook his head. "What if Dobby obeys your orders and returns home, but then sneaks back because he's worried about your safety?"
