Seeing that he had been discovered by Charlie, the person hurriedly fled.
Charlie narrowed his eyes slightly and walked towards the door.
"I'll go out and check."
Everyone's attention was on the Dragon, and they didn't notice anything unusual.
Charlie pushed open the door.
A figure was frantically running towards the Castle.
The familiar platinum-blonde hair glittered in the sunlight, recognizable even from behind.
"Draco Malfoy," Charlie sneered.
Why was this guy here? Had he been eavesdropping the whole time?
Charlie raised his wand, aiming at the fleeing figure.
"Leg-Locker Curse!"
A red light flashed, accurately hitting Malfoy's hind legs.
"Ah!"
Malfoy screamed, his legs instantly snapped together, he lost his balance, fell heavily to the ground, and got a mouthful of mud.
Charlie slowly walked over, looking down at Malfoy, who was sprawled on the ground.
"Isn't this our Young Master Malfoy?"
"What are you doing sneaking around here?"
Malfoy struggled to get up, but his legs were firmly locked, so he could only prop himself up with his hands.
His face was covered in mud, and his hair was messy; he no longer had his usual noble appearance.
"You, you quickly release me!" Malfoy stammered, using the most cowardly tone to say the harshest words.
"I'm going to tell the Professor that you're illegally raising a Dragon. I'm telling you, my father is on the Board of Governors, and if he finds out, he'll definitely expel you all."
Charlie squatted down, making eye contact with Malfoy.
"Tell the Professor?" Charlie's smile was a little wicked.
"Then you'd better think carefully about the consequences."
Malfoy swallowed.
"What consequences?"
"I'll turn poison into flies and mosquitoes and make them fly into your food."
Charlie squatted down, leaning close to Malfoy's ear.
"If you dare to tell anyone about tonight's events."
"I'll have those little insects visit your three meals every day."
"How long do you think it takes to poison someone?"
Malfoy's face instantly turned ashen white.
He knew Charlie was capable of doing it.
"I won't say anything," Malfoy quickly changed his tune.
"I swear, I didn't see anything!"
Charlie nodded in satisfaction, waving his wand to lift the Spell.
Malfoy's legs regained freedom, and he scrambled to his feet, dusting off the mud.
"Come back with me, since you're already here."
Charlie turned and walked towards the Hut.
Malfoy wanted to run, but seeing the wand in Charlie's hand, he could only obediently follow him towards the Hut.
Pushing open the door, Hagrid was still playing with the Baby Dragon, while the others gathered around the table to observe.
"Charlie's back."
Harry looked up, his face instantly changing.
"Malfoy?"
Ron saw Malfoy and immediately bristled:
"Why is this guy here?"
"It's over." Hermione covered her face.
"He must have overheard us talking just now."
Harry annoyedly patted his forehead.
"He must have overheard me and Ron talking about it."
"How about we knock him out and make him forget about it?" Ron was eager to try.
Charlie waved his hand, a sunny smile on his face.
"It's alright, I've already had a friendly chat with Malfoy. He won't leak anything, right?"
Charlie turned to look at Malfoy, his gaze meaningful.
Malfoy shivered, quickly nodding.
"Yes, yes, yes, I won't say anything."
Ron narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Malfoy up and down.
"I never thought, I never thought, our Young Master Malfoy would have a moment of fear."
Malfoy's face flushed red.
"What nonsense are you talking, you idiot Weasley."
Harry added a jab.
"Oh, today's Draco has become a drama queen."
Malfoy glared at Harry, anger burning in his eyes.
"Potter, don't get cocky. You'll fall into my hands, I swear."
He could be a coward in front of Charlie, but in front of Potter? Absolutely not!
"Then go ahead and tell on us," Ron provoked.
"After all, you're best at tattling."
