Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 265: A plan to kill two birds with one stone

Disguise? Rather than pretending to be someone to eavesdrop on the news, Nydia felt that it would be more convenient to pretend to be some kind of animal, just like her Animagus, a small snake, which is easy to hide, "You said... Could Rita Skeeter be an animagus?"

"No, Animagus needs to be registered at the Ministry of Magic. I saw the list from Professor McGonagall, and her name was not there." Hermione shook her head.

"Has Sirius registered?" Nydia looked at Hermione, her Animagus identity was also not registered.

"Oh...this..." Hermione was stunned for a moment, "That said, I remembered something...when Krum said those words to me, he grabbed a hair from my hair. Beetle down!"

"Beetle?" Nidia thought for a while, "I really wish I had seen a beetle on site during the second project."

Nydia and Hermione looked at each other, and they found that the possibility of their guess seemed to be getting more and more likely.

"Hey! Harry! Ron!"

Hermione suddenly interrupted Harry and Draco's sparring session, and all three of them turned to look at Hermione in confusion.

"Did you see beetles when you were in the Divination classroom? And when Hagrid and Ms. Maxim were talking about their giant ancestry at the Yule Ball, did you see beetles nearby?" Hermione asked.

"Beetle..." Harry lowered his head and thought about it for a while, "Hagrid did see a beetle when he was talking about his giant ancestry, but it was a garden and there were all kinds of bugs. I didn't see a beetle in the Divination classroom. , but I heard the sound of some insects, I don’t know if it was a beetle.”

"What are you asking Beetle for?" Ron asked confused.

"Nothing, just keep going!" Nidia could already confirm that their guess was correct, not only because of Harry's answers, but most importantly, Draco suddenly froze when he heard them mention beetles. He must know the expression.

"I think we guessed it right!" Hermione whispered to Nydia. "We have to find a way to teach her a lesson. It shouldn't be difficult to find her. She will definitely continue to turn into a beetle and circle around us."

Nydia was silent for a while, and then said to Hermione, "Leave this matter to me, okay! Hermione, I have an idea. If everything goes well, we may be able to catch more than one pest."

"More than one pest? What do you mean?" Hermione didn't understand what Nydia meant.

Nydia smiled and did not explain, "Leave it to me anyway. Rita Skeeter threatened Draco. I must make her pay something, believe me!"

Hermione nodded in understanding, "Okay! If there is anything you need my help with, please tell me. Rita Skeeter is very cunning."

"I know." Nydia patted Hermione on the shoulder, then stood up and walked towards Draco.

"I have some things that need to be taken care of. You can stay here and practice sparring with Harry! We'll see you in the restaurant." Nydia said to Draco, then turned around and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Draco stretched out his hand to stop Nydia's waist, brought her back to him and asked in a worried voice, "Are you going to find..."

Draco knew that Nydia had discovered that Rita Skeeter was an Animagus, but there were other people around him, so it was hard for him to say it. Fortunately, Nydia understood what he wanted to express. mean.

"Don't worry! I won't do anything dangerous." Nydia put her arm around Draco's neck, kissed him gently on the cheek, then turned and walked out of the classroom.

Draco stood worriedly. He didn't tell Nydia about Rita Skeeter being an Animagus because he was worried that Nydia would run to find her. That woman was too cunning, and he was worried Nitya will suffer.

"You're just separated for a short time, is it necessary to look like you're thinking about her so much?" Ron saw Malfoy standing there and didn't move, thinking that he was reluctant to let Nydia go, so he couldn't help but say He rolled his eyes.

"Idiots like you won't understand." Draco glanced at Ron. He saw Ron's eye roll, but he didn't want to argue with Ron now. He turned to look at Harry, " Let’s continue!”

Nidia walked quickly back to the dormitory, found the report about herself written by Rita Skeeter from the depths of her cabinet, folded it carefully and put it in her pocket before leaving the dormitory. Heading towards Moody's office.

Standing at the door of Moody's office, Nidia took a few deep breaths, and then mustered up the courage to knock on the door. Not long after, the office door was opened. Moody did not say anything when he saw Nidia. Showing surprise, Nidia guessed that he must have known through his magic eye that the person standing at the door was him.

"Can we go into your office and talk?" Nidia tried her best to keep her tone calm.

"Of course!" Moody made way for Nitya to walk in.

Nydia looked around at the furnishings in the office. It was completely different from when Lupine was here. There were a bunch of strange things in the office, and a large looking glass was placed on his desk. But the glass of the looking glass had cracks and seemed to be broken. A large shaking box under the window caught Nidia's attention.

"Don't worry about it. This annoying thing will stop soon." Moody walked to a chair and sat down. "Tell me about it! You don't just want to come to my place for a cup of tea!"

"I'm in trouble." Nidia stopped looking back and forth and said. "You once said you could help me out if I ever got into trouble."

"What happened?" Moody asked Nitya.

"Take a look at this!" Nidia handed the Rita Skeeter report to Moody. "I think if she reports this, I might be in big trouble."

Moody took the report, read it carefully, and after a moment of silence said, "This will indeed be a problem! Rita Skeeter..."

"I have also done some research myself. If I am not wrong, Rita Skeeter should be an unregistered Animagus, and her transformation is likely to be a beetle." Nydia revealed Looking at Moody with a worried expression, he said. "I have tried several times myself, but this woman is too cunning and I have let her escape. She is already a little wary of me now, so I can only come to you for help. I'm worried that if the time drags on any longer, this will happen. A report will be published by her.”

"You still have too little practice...but it is not easy to find out these things." Moody patted Nitya on the shoulder. "Don't worry! I'll make her shut up!"

Nydia was startled and looked up at Moody. Was he trying to silence Rita Skeeter? I wanted to take revenge on her, but it didn't go that far. "I hate this woman Rita Skeeter, but with her connections in various newspapers and her methods of fanning the flames, she might still be useful in the future. of."

Moody looked at Nitya in surprise, then smiled and nodded, "I understand, I understand."

Not only did Nitya understand whether Moody really understood or he might have misunderstood, she smiled awkwardly and left Moody's office.

After exiting the office, Nidia breathed a long sigh of relief. The next thing to do was to wait and see if Moody would really help her solve the problem of Rita Skeeter, although what he just said seemed like He looked like he wanted to help him solve it, but there was no guarantee that he was just following his own words, and he was also testing himself.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, Moody is now a crazy and disorderly man, but no matter how crazy he is, he will never be so ridiculous as to help him solve Rita Skeeter. If he really If he did it for himself, it would only mean that he was not the real Moody, and that he was probably someone sent by Voldemort.

Nydia was betting, and even if the bet was wrong, she guessed that the first person Moody should tell would only be Dumbledore, and Dumbledore should be able to believe his explanation.
