"Come on, brother will take you to see the goldfish."

William smeared the sticky Potions all over his palms, slowly stretched out his hand, and pretended to be weak and vulnerable.

I learned this from Grandpa Newt at Christmas; that's how he deals with those ferocious Fantastic Beasts.

As William, the Care of Magical Creatures, summarized. "If you're weak, it will be strong; if you're submissive, it will attack."

William immediately put his learning into practice, imitating Newt by acting like an autistic child.

The three Bowtruckle, seemingly pondering the meaning of the little goldfish.

William was still slowly reaching out, trying to lower their guard.

"I really am an autistic child, and I get bullied at school. I love you little animals the most," William began to feign pitifulness.

Just as his hand was about to touch the Bowtruckle, a slight rustling sound came from the dense foliage of the Whomping Willow.

Layers of leaves were lifted, revealing a dense array of hundreds of Bowtruckle staring at William.

They were on high alert, each holding a bamboo spear.

The spears were sharp and thin, like arrows, and were all aimed at William.

"William, we'll check out this secret passage another time we have time."

Cedric crawled out of the tunnel, covered in dust, and as soon as he raised his head, he was startled.

"What the hell?"

His words startled the Bowtruckle, and many spears were dropped. Cedric stumbled and fell back into the cave.

The ground was covered with countless bamboo skewers.

"What's wrong, Cedric?" Fred's voice came from behind.

"We're surrounded!"

"Who? Could it be the professor, or Auror?"

"Bowtruckle!"

"..."

"Relax!" William raised his hands to show his innocence.

He suddenly felt something tugging at his wrist, and then looked up.

The three Bowtruckle were tugging at the button on his cuff, swinging slightly. The thread broke, and the three Bowtruckle fell down.

William reacted quickly, catching the little creatures with his right hand.

Three Bowtruckle licked William's palm, and after a moment, climbed up his collar, opened the pocket inside his clothes, and jumped in.

William laughed.

The abduction was successful.

Just then, a "beep beep beep" sound came from afar, as if someone's go-kart was about to explode.

William looked up.

An old Ford car glided across the sky, billowing thick smoke from its hood like Luna's tall chimney.

Mr. Weasley's car was completely out of control, heading straight for the Black Lake.

At Black Lake, there was also a group of newly enrolled young wizards, all struggling to rock their small boats, and all of them looking up.

The car crashed onto the water's surface with a thud, then continued forward, heading straight for the first-grade students' small boat. Wherever the car went, it left a straight line, the lake water rippling and sparkling!

Hagrid roared, and standing on the small boat, he leaped up like Zhang Fei unleashing his ultimate move, delivering a vicious knee strike to the oncoming car.

The car door caved in instantly at a speed visible to the naked eye, nearly trapping Ron, who was in the parking space, inside.

Hagrid pressed his hands on the car, forcing it to swerve, while simultaneously sliding his feet backward, propelling the small boat beneath him backward.

However, due to the excessive impact, Hagrid's small boat capsized, and he fell into the water.

In an instant, countless water droplets splashed out, as if a torrential downpour was pouring down, drenching the heads of the group of young wizards.

Anne quickly pulled a small pink umbrella from her ring, opened it, and held it up to avoid getting soaked.

Ginny and Luna both hid behind the girl.

Anne patted their little hands reassuringly, sighed with an air of maturity, and then took out her wand, pointing it at Hagrid.

"Wingardium Leviosa!"

The spell landed precisely on Hagrid. There were no bison or moths, Hagrid slowly floated out of the water, landing on a small boat under Anne's control.

All the students around her applauded. Anne blinked her dark green eyes, folded her umbrella, smiled slightly, and gave an elegant ladylike bow.

Conquer Hogwarts, starting from your first year!

By this time, the car had moved far away from Black Lake and took off again.

It glided over greenhouses and vegetable gardens, flying over the black lawn outside, showing no sign of stopping.

Bang!

A windmill on top of Hagrid's Hut was hit by a car and sent flying. It landed on the ground with a thud, nearly hitting Fang.

Fang barked angrily at the car a few times; it had found the culprit who destroyed Fluffy's house!

"Oh, Merlin!" Fred, who had already climbed up from the secret passage, was dumbfounded.

"I'm actually still dreaming, aren't I? When I woke up this morning, it was just the third layer of the dream?"

Fred was instantly thrown into a state of confusion.

"I'm going to kill Ron!" George waved his hand angrily.

He desperately wanted to travel back in time and show this memory to his parents when they decided to have a sixth child.

The Mr. and Mrs. Weasley will probably take precautions to prevent Ron's birth.

The car drew closer and closer, heading straight for Whomping Willow.

"Run!" Cedric pulled William and the twins away into the distance.

"Sonorus!" William pointed his wand at his throat.

"Ron, Harry, brake!"

Ron was terrified inside the car, while Harry quickly slammed on the brakes.

He stepped on the gas, and the car sped off at an even higher speed.

Because water had entered the engine compartment, sparks and lightning flashed all over the hood, making it look extremely frightening.

"Idiot!" William couldn't help but curse, his words echoing throughout Hogwarts.

The word "idiot" echoed all around.

Ron finally snapped out of his daze and pulled his wand from his back pocket.

"Stop! Stop!" he shouted, pounding on the dashboard and windshield, but they continued hurtling toward the Whomping Willow.

William shouted, "Jump out of the car!"

Meanwhile, the other three pointed their wands at the car and cast Slowing Charm.

Upon hearing William's instructions, Harry released Hedwig from the cage without hesitation and then opened the car door.

"Are you crazy?!" Ron shouted.

"The car is about to crash into the willow tree. Staying here will only increase our chances of dying!" Harry said seriously.

That's true. A car weighs at least a ton and travels at speeds exceeding 180 miles per hour. In such a situation, a completely inelastic collision with a willow tree would likely result in being killed by the impact.

Harry, dragging Ron along, leaped into the air.

William silently chanted a spell, transforming into a tiger-headed sea eagle, and took flight.

He was incredibly fast, like an arrow released from a bow, and at the last second, his sharp claws hooked Harry and Ron in mid-air.

Hedwig circled around William, calling out affectionately.

Three Bowtruckle were entwined around the eagle's claws, hanging upside down and staring at Harry and Ron.

Harry and Ron, who had narrowly escaped death, coughed violently and looked up at the majestic eagle, both somewhat bewildered.

Where did that big bird come from?

It's so big!

William floated down slowly, dropping Harry and Ron onto the ground one after the other.

Cedric whistled and smiled at Fred and George, "William wasn't lying."

The two nodded vigorously.

I'm impressed!

They both admit defeat!
