The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Harry, Ron and Hermione were huddling under the invisibility cloak to avoid being caught by others, tiptoeing carefully through the Great Hall, and the sun was almost setting in the Forbidden Forest when they descended the stone steps in front of the gate. behind.

Crookshanks had been repeatedly told by Hermione to follow the three to Hagrid's cabin obediently.

Standing in front of Hagrid's hut, Harry looked around cautiously, making sure that no one was around before raising his hand and knocking on the door. The door quickly opened from the inside, and Hagrid stuck his head out and looked around, but couldn't find the visitor.

Finally, Hagrid noticed a cat under his feet, who had just passed by his feet, got into the house and started to sniff the air around him.

A cat knocking on the door?

Hagrid thought his idea was absurd.

"It's us, Hagrid." Harry's voice came suddenly from the side. "Don't look, we're wearing invisibility cloaks."

"Why are you here now? It's almost night."

Hagrid took a step back and waited for the three of them to enter the room, and said to Harry who had torn off the invisibility cloak, "Didn't you say there is only one class in the afternoon, you should have come earlier."

"Sorry Hagrid, I have a lot of classes in the afternoon." Hermione was also helpless, she needed more classes than Harry and Ron, so it was impossible to skip class to help Hagrid catch mice.

"This is your cat?" Hagrid looked at Crookshanks without saying anything about being late, got up to make tea for the three of them, and brought a plate of biscuits, "Looks better than Albert's. As long as he is alert, his cat will be scared when he sees a mouse."

"And cats that are afraid of mice?" Ron felt incredible.

"Yeah, Albert's cat is just like that. It's lazy, and it's very fat. It's hard to walk. When people see it, they think it's a pig." Hagrid smiled and looked at the man who was searching for the smell of mice. Crookshanks said, "A cat that catches mice is a good cat. But to Albert, it doesn't matter if his cat catches mice or not."

Peter, who was hiding in the milk jug in the cupboard and eavesdropping on their conversation, was in a state of collapse at the moment. He never thought that Hagrid would find a cat to catch a mouse.

What is this with what!

I thought it was just casual talk, but I didn't expect that Hagrid really found a cat to catch mice, and the cat he found was still chasing the one he didn't let go.

The cat was crazy, and it was clinging to him, as if there was some deep hatred between the two sides.

If Peter hadn't known about Black's Animagus' black dog, he would have even suspected that the black cat was Black's transformation.

Now just pray that the mad cat leaves as soon as he catches the mouse.

The conversation in the room continued, but they couldn't understand Peter's complicated mood right now.

"Hagrid, what happened last time?" Harry asked in a low voice.

Hagrid poured a cup of amber tea for each of the three, stared at Crookshanks looking for mice, and replied casually, "What's going on?"

"We were wearing invisibility cloaks and peeking at the side, and Buckbeak disappeared without warning before he was executed." Ron asked in a low voice.

"I don't know, he probably ran away by himself." Hagrid made a hissing gesture to the three of Harry, signaling them to stop discussing the matter.

Even if the matter had passed, Hagrid knew that this matter had to be kept completely secret, otherwise someone would find out someday, and God knows what would happen.

Harry, Hermione, and Ron all understood what Hagrid meant. Although they were very puzzled and wanted to know the truth, they did not continue to ask about it. Seeing Hagrid's appearance, it was obvious that they did not intend to reveal the news.

"Look, it's got the first mouse." Hagrid deflected the three of them.

Crookshanks had just crawled out from under Hagrid's bed with a dead mouse in his mouth.

"You're a very powerful cat, and it only took a long time for you to catch a mouse." Hagrid picked up the dead mouse thrown by Crookshanks from the ground and sighed softly.

Hermione's Crookshanks is really powerful. After a while, three mice were caught in Hagrid's hut, and a bottle was knocked over in the meantime.

Peter, who was hiding in the milk jug, shrank into a ball in fear, for fear of being discovered by the mad cat, which would lead to the failure of all his efforts and expose himself to the public eye.

Unfortunately, Peter couldn't escape Crookshanks' nose after all. After the rat trapping expert Crookshanks killed the fourth mouse under the kitchen cabinet, he finally set his sights on the cupboard.

Seeing that Crookshanks found the mouse again, Hermione reached for the cat and held it up on Hagrid's cupboard.

Crookshanks immediately set his sights on the milk jug where Peter was hiding.

Peter, hiding in the milk jug, felt like he was going crazy.

Why is he so unlucky!

Damn it!

Damn it.

When Hermione took the milk jug from the cupboard and opened the lid, she was startled by what came out of it, her fingers loosened, and the milk jug fell from Hermione's hand and fell into a pile of pieces. .

Peter, who was hiding in the milk jug, ran away immediately after the jug shattered, desperately trying to get under the cupboard, lest he become the ghost of the mad cat's mouth.

"What's the matter, Hermione?"

The three of them were startled by Hermione's exclamation, and turned their heads to see the milk jug and a large mouse that fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

"Banban, why are you here?" Ron stared dumbfounded at the mouse that slid into the cabinet.

Crookshanks pounced, growled in a low voice, and began furiously reaching under the cupboard with his front paws.

"Crookshanks, don't do this." Hermione grabbed Crookshanks by the waist and lifted it with great effort to place it somewhere else, so that it wouldn't kill Scabbers.

"Is it really Scabbers?" Harry asked suspiciously. Wasn't Scabbers eaten by Crookshanks a while ago, and Ron and Hermione had a big fight for this.

"No, I can't read it wrong." Ron was lying on the ground, trying to grab the mouse hidden under the cabinet, but was bitten, and screams of pain echoed in the room.

After much effort, Ron finally grabbed the struggling rat and lifted it to a lighted place to take a closer look.

Scabbers indeed, he was thinner than before, and his fur was shedding a lot, leaving patches of bald skin.

The mouse wriggled in Ron's hands, as if desperately trying to be free.

"Scabbard, it's me, Ron." Ron told Hermione to take the cat away. "With me, nothing here will hurt you!"

Ron tried to keep Scabbers in his pocket, but the rat went berserk, screaming, twisting and kicking frantically, biting Ron's hand again, and when he let go of it in pain, It slipped out of Ron's fingers and fell to the ground desperately to escape.

Crookshanks broke free from Hermione's hand and chased after him so fast that Harry and Hermione didn't even have time to stop him.

As for Ron, as soon as he saw Crookshanks getting rid of the spots, he immediately chased after him.

"Hermione, let's take a look too," Harry said, and hurried after Ron.

"Wait Harry." Hermione vaguely sensed something was wrong and cast a pleading look at Hagrid.

"Oh my God! What the hell is going on here?"

Hagrid looked at the three who left in a hurry, still confused, but he was not worried about letting Harry, Hermione and Ron run around at night, so he was ready to follow, but it was already dark outside, so Hagrid turned back and grabbed an oil lamp before catching up again.
