A person and a cat exchanged glances and sparked.

"Ron, you haven't hit a cat." Harry looked at him with a complicated look in his eyes.

"I, I just don't want to mess with it!" Ron rolled up his sleeves and said hideously, "It's just a cat, I didn't even use a wand!" ”

"Harry, let me tell you, I've changed my wand and I've improved my spellcasting level a lot."

"Really, don't look at me like that, Bill taught me ......"

Crookshan's mouth opened wide and let out a shrill shout, very disdainful.

Stupid little wizard.

The phantom Lupin looked at Ron with nostalgia in his eyes. Just looking at Harry, he could hardly find a trace of Gryffindor except for the fact that he dared to act decisively against the professor.

And this red-haired little freckled face made him confirm that Gryffindor was still the same Gryffindor.

Crookshank's nose flickered, and he suddenly arched his waist and bared his teeth in the direction of Lupin.

"Your own people, don't get excited, sit down." Harry patted it on the head.

Crook Hill was well-behaved and half-squatted down again.

"Honestly answer my question, did you eat Spotted?" Harry asked.

Crookshank shook his head, sweeping his tail.

Ron snorted, "Liar kitten." ”

Crook Hill is furious, eager to fight him again.

"You can't beat it, there's no need for Crookshane to lie to you." Harry turned back and said earnestly to Ron.

Ron gasped, put his hand in his robe, and gritted his teeth, "Harry, it's not like I can't beat it, I'm just, I'm ......"

He was even more flustered, waving his hand.

"I understand." Harry patted him on the shoulder, "I understand. ”

Ron breathed a sigh of relief.

"The cat raccoon is a dangerous magical creature of level 3X." Harry comforted him, "You're only in third year after all, so it's okay if you can't beat it." ”

Ron was stunned, his eyes and nose began to twist.

"Aim to win it before the end of the semester."

This last sentence made Ron snort in his heart, as if he had been stabbed, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to take out his wand and send a duel invitation to Crookshank on the spot, proving to Harry if he could beat this slightly larger turmeric stinky kitten.

"Spotted escaped?" Harry continued to ask questions about Crookshan.

Crookshant nodded.

"Why don't you stop it." Harry landed his hand on its head.

Crookshank squeaked and barked for a moment before he remembered that Harry might not understand cat language, and stepped on the table a little anxiously.

"Because I'm not allowed to let you do anything to it?" Harry remembered something.

Crookshank breathed a sigh of relief humanely, nodding his head and flicking his tail.

Harry patted it on the head, "Then I'll give you a mission, if you want to grab it, bring it to me." ”

Crookshank stood up, rubbing his head against Harry's hand and letting out a threatening scream.

"Do you want to be paid?" Harry smiled and said, "Then if you find it, I'll give you a pound of owl rations, the kind I fed you that day." ”

Crookshank looked up and shouted twice.

It doesn't understand how many "pounds" there are.

But the innocent kitten wants more, so what's wrong?

"Okay, if you find it, I'll give you two pounds." Harry responded.

Crookshank was surprised, and tentatively cried out three times.

Harry didn't speak, there was no emotion in his eyes, he stared at it indifferently.

Crookhill shrank his head, jumped off the table, slapped Harry's hand with his tail, meowed a few times, and quickly jumped out of the crowd and disappeared from the crowd.

Ron was stunned and looked at the place where Crook Hill had squatted just now.

"Something is wrong with Blob?" He lowered his voice, his expression dazed.

Harry turned his head, Neville was not there, and he was afraid that he would go back to the dormitory early: "Go out and talk?" There is no curfew yet. ”

Ron nodded.

No sooner had they climbed out of the common room than Hermione returned.

"Harry, you're back so soon? Professor Lupin's problem? Hermione was a little surprised that she was faster than herself.

"He's probably fine." Harry responded to her, "But there's something wrong with Spotted. ”

Hermione was startled and subconsciously looked at Ron.

Ron was in a trance.

"Do you want to be together?" Harry asked her.

Hermione didn't hesitate and walked with her to a stand in the tower.

Lupin waved his wand and revealed.

Hermione reacted quickly, took out her wand, and before she could raise it, she had already confirmed who was in front of her, and she was a little embarrassed to think that she had just said bad things about him: "Oh, Professor Lupin, you are here too." ”

"Harry invited me here." Lupin replied with a smile, but when he smiled, he seemed weaker.

Hermione's face flushed.

"What the hell is wrong with Spotted?" Seeing Lupin appear, Ron's uneasiness deepened, and he took a deep breath, grabbed Harry's sleeve, and asked.

"It could be an Animagus." Harry's tone was as soft as he could.

"No way, it's been in my house for thirteen years." Ron dropped his hand and shook his head violently.

Hermione whispered, "But it's almost impossible for an ordinary rat to live thirteen years." ”

"Actually, it's possible that it's my dad's friend." Harry continued.

Ron's face changed, and a little panic welled up in his heart: "Sirius Black? ”

But he soon reacted.

"That's not right."

"He has been imprisoned in Azkaban and has only recently escaped."

Harry answered, "It's Peter." ”

"The hero?" Ron immediately thought, his voice couldn't help but rise, he had heard his parents talk about the past at home during this time, "But he's not dead." ”

Harry looked at Lupin.

Lupin explained: "Peter is an illegal Animagus, he can turn into a mouse. ”

"Not all rats are Peter, either." Ron still couldn't bear to break his illusions, the Weasleys were not a wealthy family, there were many children, and there were not many things that belonged to him.

And Spotted is one of the most valuable items among the few things that belong to him.

It's like Harry's heart hurts when he loses a bag of gold gallons.

Ron's mood was heavier than that now - after all, Harry had more than a bag of gold Galleons.

"Peter is missing a finger on his right hand, and Spotted is missing a toe on his right paw." Harry patted him on the shoulder, "Thirteen years ago Peter died, thirteen years ago Spotted appeared in your house. ”

"There are too many coincidences."

Ron's face paled.

"It's a good thing to want to open a little." Harry comforted him.

Ron was puzzled, puzzled.

"When we find him, if he's a good guy, let him compensate you for a pet." Harry whispered.

"If he were a bad guy, I would kill him with my own hands." Speaking of this, Harry paused slightly, calming his mood, "Since I killed your pet, I will naturally compensate you for one." ”

"Owl, or cat?"

Ron was feeling better again, and he began to struggle with whether to have an owl or a cat, or some other pet that would be fine......

"I recommend cats." Harry spoke earnestly.

Ron glared, "No, it's not like I can't beat Crookshan!" ”

Hermione, frowning and thinking, raised her head when she heard her pet's name, and was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with Crook Mountain?" ”

Ron reached out and tried to gagged Harry, "No, Harry, you can't say that. ”

Harry raised his hand and pressed his head, "Just now Ron thought it was Crookshank Hill who ate the spots, fought with it, and lost. ”

Ron let out a desperate sigh.

Hermione opened her mouth, a little surprised, not knowing what to say.

After a long time, she sighed, not knowing if it was for Ron or Harry, "But now it's not Crookshank, it's Sirius Black." ”

Ron was confused: "What's wrong with him?" ”

"If Spotted were Peter, he'd still be alive." Hermione was puzzled, "But he's a hero, why should he be incognito?" ”

Harry nodded, "I'm confused about that too. ”

Hermione prepares to open her mouth for analysis.

Harry waved his hand: "But it's easy to solve this matter, it would be nice to find him." ”

"Aksi, Soul Extraction, Truth Elixir, can all ask the truth."

Lupin's eyes widened, he didn't know what Akxi was, but he knew the last two things too well: "No, Harry, no, the Ministry of Magic doesn't allow ......"

"The Ministry of Magic does not allow illegal Animagus." Harry interrupted him, his face expressionless, "Not even, um... You know. ”

Lupin's face was a little unnatural.

The Ministry of Magic has a Code of Conduct for Werewolves, and Lupin's presence at Hogwarts apparently doesn't follow it.

"I hate those cumbersome rules, and the solution to the problem is the good way." Harry shook his head, "Although in some ways, they do exist. ”

Lupin sighed, "You're much bolder than your father, I finally understand why you were classified as Gryffindor, and I thought it would be better for you to go to Ravenclaw." ”

Ron was a little dissatisfied: "Look at Harry's eyes, he was born for Gryffindor. ”

All three of them wanted to speak and stopped.

Hermione struggled and sighed, "At Christmas, I'll give you a book, be sure to read it." ”

Ron was puzzled, "Huh? Harry was born Gryffindor. ”

"Yes, I am." Harry nodded, "Do you want me to teach you some tricks on how to deal with cats?" ”

"It's not like I can't beat Crookshank." Ron exclaimed in shame, "What kind of means?" ”

Hermione greeted Professor Lupin, "Professor, then we'll go back first." ”

Lupin waved to them, he didn't plan to leave, looking at the forbidden forest in the distance from the stands, the cold wind was blowing, and a few drops of cold rain came from time to time, in a trance, making him feel like he was back twenty years ago.

"By the way, Professor Lupin." Harry turned back and spoke to him, "Half a month, half a month at most." ”

"If Crookshank, or if you haven't found Spotted by then, I'll have to tell Professor Dumbledore."

"Danger can't be there for long."

"In half a month, I'll visit you again, and by the way, ask about Professor Snape, you can prepare in advance."

As he spoke, he paused.

"I don't trust house-elves though."

"But Professor, if you are confident, you can give it a try."

Professor Lupin nodded, his heart warmed, and he smiled and nodded, "I see, Harry, I wish you a good dream, and we'll see you in our first class." ”
