Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

v1 Chapter 279: Moody's Discovery

"Look! Hermione!"

Harry kept his eyes fixed on the direction in front of the tavern door, and kicked Hermione carefully under the table, motioning her to look at the place he found.

Hermione looked away from the book impatiently, and saw what Harry was telling her to read.

Outside the door of the Three Broom Tavern, four people walked in together. Because one of them was very conspicuous, many people in the tavern noticed them.

Originally, Sherlock took Silk with him. He just wanted to stroll around the streets of Hogsmeade. The reason why he had been insisting on inviting Silk was purely because he felt that she was staying there all the time except for classes. In his own office, this is not good for the body, and it is not that he is conspiring to do something else.

As a result, not long after they came to Hogsmeade, they met Hagrid and Moody who also chose to come out today, so the four of them came to the three broom taverns together.

As soon as he entered the door, when Sherlock was about to find a seat, Moody's magical false eye suddenly spun around, and soon stopped where Harry and Hermione were.

"Haha." He let out a burst of laughter as if he had seen something interesting, "It seems that someone doesn't want to be too conspicuous, come with me."

He took Sherlock and the three to Harry's side, and then sat around an empty seat beside them.

Under normal circumstances, Sherlock would not let out the control magic and waste his energy, so he did not find Harry hiding under the invisibility cloak, but just looked at Hermione with a strange expression.

"Why are you drinking here by yourself? How about Harry and the others?"

Hermione blushed, and just as she stammered open her mouth, before she could decide whether to tell the truth or not, Moody, who was beside her, laughed out loud.

"Harry, is he sitting next to you soon? Sherlock."

Suddenly, Sherlock understood, he looked at the empty seat opposite Hermione with a strange expression, and asked softly.

"Are you planning to do something bad again? Why are you wearing an invisibility cloak?"

Harry was still surprised that Moody's magic eye could see through his invisibility cloak, and faced Sherlock's question, he was a little embarrassed to say that he didn't want to see Ron, but instead. Just looking for an excuse to fool around.

"I don't want others to see me, I've been bothered by them these days"

His excuse was quite reasonable. Sherlock and the others didn't hear anything wrong.

They all knew of Harry's current situation at Hogwarts. If he really showed up in a tavern that was almost full of students, he would probably have to be disgusted and looked down upon.

In this regard, even Sherlock and the other professors have no better way. It was rare that Moody comforted him.

"Don't worry, when the first project is over, after those students have seen the dangers of the Triwizard Tournament, they won't have the heart to gossip about you any more."

However, his words did not have any consoling effect. After listening to Harry, he felt even more chills, and he felt uneasy about the competition that would test his courage soon.

Hagrid, who had been silent for a while, his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.

Sherlock and the others didn't stay in the tavern for long, they just chatted for a while, and after drinking two glasses of butterbeer, they got up and prepared to leave.

However, when they finally left, there were three people, and Hagrid said that he still wanted to drink two more drinks, so that they could leave without worrying about him.

After Sherlock and the others had all left, Hagrid took advantage of Hermione's time to get a drink at the bar and leaned into Harry's ear, who was wearing an invisibility cloak, and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Come to my hut at twelve o'clock tonight to find me, remember to wear an invisibility cloak."

After saying this to Harry, he also stood up from his seat with a calm expression and left the three broom bars.

Harry didn't understand Hagrid's words, and he didn't hide it from Hermione when Hermione came back.

"Why did Hagrid let him find him in an invisibility cloak in the middle of the night?"

Hermione was also surprised by this.

"Hagrid asked you to find him in the middle of the night? I don't know if it's good or bad, Harry, but you haven't forgotten that tonight is also the day you and Sirius made an appointment to meet?"

Harry's letter to Sirius received a reply not long ago, and he made an appointment to use Floo fans to talk to Harry tonight.

Harry, of course, hadn't forgotten about it.

"Then we have to make a quick decision tonight. I hope it's not a problem for Hagrid to find me."

Just as they continued to chat, Sherlock, Silk and Moody, who had already left the tavern, walked side by side on the streets of Hogsmeade.

"About throwing Harry's name into the Goblet of Fire, I also asked Vera to help with divination to see if I could find any clues about that person~lightnovelpub.net~ but I always found nothing."

His voice fell, and Shilk also spoke at this time.

"Divination is not omnipotent. The ability to see something depends not only on the ability of the fortune teller, but also on whether fate is willing to open this hole."

It was only when Moody came to Hogwarts that he learned that Sherlock had a close relationship with the witch named Willa Silk.

He has always wondered that Sherlock, who used to be like a stuffy gourd, should not have the tendency to have a girlfriend so soon, even if his temperament changed drastically.

However, at this time, of course, he would not ask these questions, but opened his mouth to talk about his findings.

"I always walk around the school a lot during this time, especially in the middle of the night. Just a few days ago, a group of big guys related to the first event of the Triwizard Tournament seemed to come to the Forbidden Forest. , there was a lot of movement at night."

"That is, during a period of time, I found a suspicious person who came out of the forbidden forest."

Sherlock frowned and repeated his description.

"A suspicious person?"

"He was wearing a black robe, with a hat covering his face, hiding his head and showing his tail. I found him by accident by the black lake. Before I could draw my wand, he also found me, and then turned around and drilled. In the forbidden forest, and then I can't find him."

Moody said solemnly.

"Afterwards, I talked to Dumbledore about it. He said that there have been a lot of Romanian wizards in the Forbidden Forest recently, and I may have seen these people. But he wasn't sure, he just let me Be more vigilant and watch the situation in the castle."
