The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Crookshanks catwalked down the corridors of Hogwarts. In fact, it has a goal in mind as to what it wants to give: that is the mouse with evil intentions. It knows that that thing is not a good thing. But it didn't know why it hated Scabbers for no reason - Crookshanks would follow his instinct and catch and eat other mice, but he would never hate a mouse. This kind of hatred without any reason seems to be the intuition passed on to it by blood.

To the cat's regret, the mouse became more alert than before, and it was difficult for him to track it. It was all the fault of the male and female scavengers, causing him to miss the opportunity and the best way to eliminate it. Chance. If he had struck faster in Diagon Alley, Cat wouldn't be so distressed now.

Crookshanks shook his head, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and began to patrol the school castle. It does this kind of thing a lot. It often leaves the dormitory after the brown-haired man falls asleep and wanders around the Hogwarts castle. Coming out now, it can be said that I am familiar with the road.

After patrolling twice, Crookshanks was a little disappointed to see no sign of the rat at all, and no other things suitable for gifts. But it soon felt relieved: it seemed that it was quite far away from the mouse with ulterior motives, and if it didn't come to the shit-sweeper in the future, it would just turn a blind eye and let this go. Guys.

As long as it doesn't affect the life of the scavenger, it can do whatever it likes. It squatted on the window sill, thinking about changes in countermeasures against Banban. At the same time, it looked at the scenery on the ground with a melancholy look: the little wizard walking on the lawn. , the black lake reflecting the white clouds, the dense forbidden forest and the big black dog that appeared on the edge of the forbidden forest...

Huh?

The black dog attracted Crookshanks' attention. With the help of bloodline talent, it noticed this somewhat suspicious dog.

"Follow us and take a look?" This thought came to his mind.

Act immediately after your heart beats. This is the code of conduct for cats. Therefore, cats often make many choices that stimulate the owner's heart, such as sweeping the glass on the table to the ground under the owner's gaze, or attacking each other's pet mice in front of the owner.

The same goes for Crookshanks. After it made a decision, it jumped out of the window, moved extremely lightly between several protruding rafters, and finally landed lightly on the ground.

It shook its fur and ran towards the place where the big black dog was.

Hatred, anger, and violence lingered in Sirius's heart, making him almost lose his mind. He was indeed around Hogwarts, as the Ministry of Magic had speculated. But he had always been careful and cautious, and did not choose to rush into Hogwarts. He knew that his infamous reputation would not get him much help at Hogwarts - most professors would arrest him if they saw him, and Professor Dumbledore's attitude was also ambiguous, so he could only be alone. Resisted everything.

Although he had arrived at the outskirts of Hogwarts long ago, he had been lurking on the outskirts of Hogsmeade to gather information, judge the situation, and look for Scabbers, until today.

The dementors were going crazy today, they suddenly attacked Hogsmeade. Sirius knew that he had no other choice - if he fell into the hands of the Dementors, he would only get a "Dementor's Kiss" as quickly as possible and become a walking zombie. So he sneaked into Hogwarts through the secret passage under the Shrieking Shack.

Not long after walking out of the Forbidden Forest along the Whomping Willow, Sirius saw a fleshy black figure from the corner of his eye. His breathing suddenly became rapid. He suddenly threw himself into the grass on the side and held down his hand. He picked up a chubby mouse, but the next moment his eyes showed a look of disappointment - this was not the mouse he wanted, and its fingers were sound!

"But it's not bad, today's lunch is settled." Sirius comforted himself, and to say the least, thirteen years have passed, and there is only a day or two left.

But at this time, his furry ears moved twice, and he seemed to hear the sound of a rabbit. He twitched his nose and found that just as he heard, there was a rabbit behind the tree not far from here!

If you have rabbits, there is no need to eat mice. Sirius is very unruly and will endure no matter how hard it is to achieve his goals, but he is a human being and rats are his last food choice.

So he let go of the fat mouse under his paws and tiptoed toward the place where the smell of rabbit came from.

After a while, a wisp of green smoke lit up deep in the Forbidden Forest: Sirius successfully caught a rabbit that had just woken up - this rabbit may have been sleeping in and didn't wake up until now, but it was killed by Sirius as soon as it woke up. If caught, they will be killed and eaten.

After biting the rabbit's head, Sirius returned to his human form and took out the dead lazy rabbit from his mouth. After spitting out the rabbit fur in his mouth, he walked nearly a hundred meters into the depths of the Forbidden Forest. When his head was covered with shade from the sun, he stopped and disemboweled the rabbit.

After picking it up, he lit a fire, shoved a branch from behind the rabbit's butt, and roasted the rabbit on the fire. During the roasting process, he also smeared several plants he found on the road on the rabbit to give the rabbit meat a flavor. After roasting for a while, he couldn't wait any longer, so he took the half-cooked rabbit meat off the fire, blew on it twice and started biting into it.

The meat of wild rabbit has a very strong grassy smell and is very woody. Most people would spit it out after taking one bite, but Sirius ate it with gusto, even though there was blood in the meat. His wandering life was not easy. Most of the time he was hungry and had to dig through garbage to eat. The few times he returned to human form, he was discovered by Muggles and wizards. This kept him in a state of wandering, and he was lucky to be able to get to Hogwarts.

Although Sirius was very engrossed in eating, he was not completely vigilant. His ears twitched suddenly, he turned to look at the place where he noticed something unusual, and said calmly: "Little guy, come out. You seem to have been following me for a long time."

Crookshanks hunched over and slowly walked out from behind a fallen dead tree, looking at Sirius with some vigilance. It couldn't figure out why the big black dog suddenly turned into a man with messy hair.

Sirius smiled, "It turns out to be a cat. Don't you know curiosity kills cats?"

Although he had harsh words on his lips, Sirius had no intention of silencing the cat. He knew very well that the big ginger cat in front of him should have the blood of a cat. Since it has the blood of a magical animal, it definitely cannot be an Animagus - Animagus can only transform into ordinary animals or insects. Can't turn into a magical animal.

He thought for two seconds, then pulled off the half-eaten rabbit's hind legs and threw it to Crookshanks.

"Kitten, keep this secret for me!" He smoothed his messy hair greasyly. Even though his face was unshaven, the wizard's robe was in tatters, and he was completely thin and out of shape, you could still find a trace of his former coolness in his movements. This sense of freedom may have been burned into his bones.

Crookshanks was startled by the rabbit's legs being thrown towards him, but he quickly dismissed the threat. It came up, sniffed the rabbit leg, then bit it, tearing off the meat bit by bit and swallowing it into its belly.

It feels that the big guy in front of it is not a bad person... or a bad dog.

Looking at Crookshanks' appearance, Sirius felt that this guy seemed to be able to understand what he was saying, but as soon as the idea came to him, he shook his head: How is that possible? This is just a cat with impure blood.

Seeing how delicious it was, Sirius also felt unbearably hungry, and quickly killed the rabbit on the fire. After a while, a big rabbit weighing more than two pounds was eaten clean by one person and one cat.

After eating, Sirius leaned under a big tree. Perhaps he was too lonely, and he actually wanted to chat with the big cat in front of him - the daily theme of Azkaban was despair and loneliness, there was no one to communicate with at all, and he was the roommate next door. How could he talk to a madman who turned his back on the Death Eaters with disdain and made him gag just by hearing their voices?

After coming out of Azkaban, he had been wandering all the way, and he had no one to talk to. When he was in Azkaban, he could at least quarrel with his "dear" cousin. He even suspected that the reason his cousin wasn't crazy yet was because she could quarrel with him every day.

He looked at Crookshanks, who was lying on the ground slowly digesting the rabbit leg after eating it, and stretched out his hand towards it as if by chance.

Crookshanks looked up at him:?

Seeing that his actions received a positive response, Sirius became interested and waved to Crookshanks. Crookshanks lazily waggled his tail. After all, he felt that eating people was short-sighted, so he walked to Sirius's side step by step. With a snap, he collapsed next to Sirius.

hey-hey! Sirius smiled and stretched out his left hand towards Crookshanks...

"Meow!" Crookshanks yelled, startling Sirius. He retracted his hand with a sneer, looked down, and found that it was covered with oil and water from the rabbit he had just eaten. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, wiped his hand on the ground, and then extended his hand of "friendship" again.

Unfortunately, he was rejected by Crookshanks.

The cat’s hair is carefully groomed! Keep your dirty hands away from me! How do I go to see my own shit collector if I get dirty? This was the first thought that came to Crookshanks' mind.

"Okay..." Sirius was a little regretful: This cat is not allowed to be touched, which is a pity. Fortunately, it didn't leave because of this, it just moved a little further away from him.

Sirius held a piece of dogtail grass he caught casually in his mouth and began to tell his story.

From the Predators, to the rise of Voldemort and the Wizarding War, and finally to the murder of his best friend James Potter due to the betrayal of the traitor Peter Pettigrew...

"I swear, I will catch that dead mouse and cut it into pieces!" When he was angry, he slapped the ground suddenly, waking up Crookshanks who was already asleep.

"What? Ah? What is the big black hair talking about - seems to want to kill mice? Cats also want to kill mice!" So it nodded in confusion, as if it was agreeing with Sirius.

Sirius looked at Crookshanks, feeling very happy - even if he doubted that the cat understood what he was saying, it was still quite happy to have an animal echo him.

"If you find a mouse missing a finger in the future, remember to come to me!" After leaving these words, Sirius transformed back into the big black dog, wagging his tail at Crookshanks. He ran deep into the woods and disappeared.

Crookshanks:?

How to contact you, you tell me! The cat also wants to catch Banban!

Crookshanks sighed and realized that it was getting late, so he planned to go home and go back to the common room to interact with the shit collector. But as soon as it took two steps, it froze.

Crookshanks: I seem to have forgotten something?

right! Forgot to bring a gift for the poop shoveler! It remembered that the purpose of coming out this time was to find a gift for the shit shoveler, but it completely forgot about it after seeing the big black dog! It suddenly became hairy and looked around quickly. It saw something moving in the grass, so it instinctively flew towards it and caught the source of the movement in the grass.

A fat rat!

That’s it! Crookshanks looked at his trophy with joy, thinking that taking out such a fat mouse as a gift would not disgrace the cats - the shit collector would be very happy, right? Will you give the cat extra food at night? Crookshanks thought happily about the scene when he gave the mouse to Tom and Hermione.

As a caught mouse, Winter Solstice XVI was in a bad mood.

The fat mouse that was caught was the 16th Winter Solstice who had a slight tangle with Peter Pettigrew by accident. His luck has really been average recently. His wife cheated on him with another rat, and he was caught by a dog when he went out to look for food. Fortunately, the big black dog had no interest in it, otherwise it would have been killed by a dog kiss. Not long after he recovered, he was caught by a cat!

At the winter solstice, I felt like crying but had no tears, and my heart felt dead.

"Perhaps, this is a rat." It gave up its resistance.

However, the big yellow cat did not eat it, but took it into the stone house in the distance.

Tom was chewing gum happily, while Hermione looked at him angrily from the side.

"Okay! Next time I ask you -" Tom moved his seat towards the fire, so that he was closer to the fire.

"Next time it won't be as delicious as this time!" Hermione shook her head like a rattle: Tom is such a bad guy, he won't return the gum after he eats it!

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Hermione thought for a while and looked around: Although there were not many people in the lounge, she really couldn't do anything to ask Tom to return the chewing gum.

"I don't know, write it down in the notebook!" For a while, Hermione couldn't think of any punishment measures, so she could only write it down first.

"Okay..." Tom suddenly remembered something, "Where's Crookshanks? Have you seen it?"
