Chapter 284: Luck
"Oh, Crookshan!"
Hermione rubbed the big ginger cat's head, her expression looking a little guilty, but still smiling, "How's it been at Hagrid's lately, Crookshan." ”
Meow--
Crookshane licked his paws and rubbed his furry face against Hermione's hands.
Seeing that Crookshank Hill didn't blame herself in the slightest, Hermione was even more upset, she took a deep breath, as if she was mustering up her own courage, and then, she turned her head to look at Ron,
"Ron, I think it's time for Crookhill to come back to living in the castle, you can't"
Halfway through her words, Hermione couldn't go on, because Ron had apparently understood her words, and his face was immediately very ugly.
"What do you think--"
Harry stared at the little black dog, a little uncomfortable, and said slowly,
"Where did Crook Hill find this dog?"
Because of Crookshan, the atmosphere between Hermione and Ron became a little delicate, and neither of them answered the question immediately, until half an hour later, Hermione blew her nose and suppressed her emotions and said,
"It's hard to say, Harry, maybe Hagrid thinks Tooth is a bit lonely, so where did he find it?"
"Maybe we can ask Hagrid." Harry said suddenly.
Ron and Hermione were both looking at Harry, and their reaction to him was unexpected, the little black dog crouching on the steps didn't seem to be very happy to go to Hagrid, it turned around and was ready to run away, but its current appearance was obviously not as sensitive as Harry, and as soon as it jumped down the steps, it was quickly grabbed by Harry's eyes, and it couldn't move.
Harry tossed the firebolt caught under the squeaky nest to Ron, and with the black dog in his hand, he ran to Hagrid's hut on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and Ron and Hermione, though a little puzzled, could only run after him when they saw that Harry was so decisive.
Harry looked a little disappointed by the closed door of the hut, but he continued to look around and found the goblin in the meadow to the west of the hut.
"Hey, Toothy!"
Harry shouted at him, and at his call, Tooth gave up playing with the hapless goblin and ran over with his tongue out.
"Where's Hagrid?" Harry patted his head on the back, "Did you patrol the Forbidden Forest?" ”
Yaya shook his head, his eyes looking in the direction of the school gate.
"Looks like Hagrid is out of the house—"
Ron and Hermione rushed out from behind, and Ron shrugged his shoulders meaninglessly at the sight.
"You seem to care about this dog, Harry?" Hermione asked, a little curiously, "Is there anything wrong with it?" ”
"I can't say it, Hermione—"
Harry was silent for a long time, then he broke the black dog's head, stared into its eyes with a frown, and said,
"But I felt like I'd seen it somewhere, well, it felt familiar to me."
"Maybe it's just your delusion, Harry--"
Ron played with Harry's firebolts, his wistful eyes glancing over the smooth ash shaft of the broom and the immaculately trimmed branches, and said casually
"Or, you've seen it in Hogsmeade, you know, the villagers who live there like to keep dogs, to help with hunting, to look at their homes or something—"
"You're right, Ron."
Harry pursed his lips and put Sirius, who was choking enough, on the ground, now that they were on the Hogwarts campus, if Harry did find some clues and howled, Sirius wasn't sure if it was Amosta who came quickly, or the Dementors who were sticking to the school gates, those terrible creatures wouldn't listen to him.
"And what now, Harry, are you going to leave it here, or take it back to the castle?"
Hermione asked.
"Forget it—"
After a moment's thought, Harry shook his head, he didn't like dogs, and he didn't want to earn himself a confinement from Filch before the Quidditch match on the first weekend of school.
"Then let it stay here, Hagrid will take care of it," Hermione said, "it's Crookshank's playmate." ”
The incident with this little black dog can only be regarded as a small episode for the three Harry, tomorrow is the first day of school, their classmates at Hogwarts have basically returned to school, and Harry has finally used his fire crossbow arrows, even if Blake rushes into the castle at this time, it can't stop his good mood.
After Hermione handed Crook Hill to Fangfang, the three of them turned around and walked like a castle, and Sirius, who was frightened by Harry, finally breathed a sigh of relief, tilting its head to avoid Fangfang's outstretched tongue, looking at the Forbidden Forest where there was a distant cry from time to time, and its gray eyes revealed the excitement of regaining freedom.
Unnoticed, in the sky above Hagrid's garden, a panoramic telescope of the same color as the air flapped its wings and hovered in the air, and after Harry returned to the castle and Sirius jumped into the Forbidden Forest, the panoramic telescope circled twice in the air like an eagle, and finally, a sharp back flew towards the West Tower!
The clouds are rolling and the moon is rising and setting, and in the dark castle, the bright candles shine through the window openings, and the laughter and laughter wandering around the campus, making the deep night brighter together.
Tonight was the first night since Halloween night last semester when all the students and faculty had gathered in the Great Hall to celebrate, and Dumbledore hadn't returned, making it a perfect time for Sirius to sneak into the castle.
Spotted crouched early on the map of the living spots, it had no interest in the castle full of names, and its vigilant eyes only roamed around the periphery of the map, but until the young wizards left the hall one after another, and the lights in the dormitory were extinguished one after another, and still nothing.
Could it be that Blake really still gave up on revenge on himself?
In the middle of the night, Peter stared at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal some confusion.
No, it won't be like that!
But a moment later, Peter said to himself again.
He knew what Sirius was like, and people like him would never give up just because they were facing difficulties, and the current situation, more likely, twelve years in prison had made Sirius more forbearing, less reckless and impulsive.
And such a change in Sirius is undoubtedly dangerous for himself.
Peter sighed, throwing the 'naïve' fantasies out of his mind, and lowered his head to continue to examine the map.
Filch walked down the hallway on the second floor, Snape had left Remus's office and was descending from the foyer into the Slytherin basement, Professor McGonagall was walking from the bathroom to his office, and Hagrid and Toothtooth, patrolling the courtyard, were about to return to the cabin to rest.
Peter followed Hagrid and his dog back to the hut, and turned his head to look in the direction of the school gate, but suddenly, a name that suddenly appeared behind the hut shook Peter's body, and a light suddenly appeared in his little black eyes!
3rd floor of the castle, security office.
Amosta, who was leaning back in the chair, looked at the opposite wall, the only picture spliced together by hundreds of small screens, the corners of his mouth slanted upward, showing a slight smile,
"So, what are you going to do, Peter?"
