Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 741: The cat who can shop
Chapter 742 The cat who can shop
"I know you want to catch Peter and bring it to me, but it's almost a waste of effort, Peter is cautious and smarter than you, you can't catch it. If you have a chance, find a way to help me get into the grid. Ryffindor common room password, I will personally enter the school and kill him."
In the dark tunnel, Sirius Black gently stroked Crookshanks' head with his rough hands, telling him what he needed, what he wanted to do, he knew the cat was smart, but wanted to rely on it to catch Peter's Rat, it's almost impossible, and Sirius Black prefers to kill Peter himself and avenge James.
"Meow!"
Crookshanks let out a soft cry, as if to indicate that he would pay attention to Black.
"By the way, there is one more thing, I hope you can help me."
Black took out a slightly crumpled piece of parchment from his pocket and handed it to Crookshanks: "Harry's broom is broken, I'm going to give him a new one for Christmas, but I can't go. Go into the Quidditch boutique and buy a broom, I need you to give this letter to someone at the Hogsmeade post office to order an owl in Harry's name. As for Galleon, I'll send him to Gringo Court No. 711, my treasury goes to withdraw money, or resupply him later."
Actually, Blake doesn't know if this will be successful, but it seems that there is no better choice. If he turns into a dog and enters the post office with paper in his mouth, it will be very suspicious no matter how he looks at it. If he is suspected by the post office , I am afraid I will be in big trouble.
Clever Crookshanks is clearly a better fit for the job than he is.
Crookshanks nodded and agreed to run for Black.
One person and one cat walked down the tunnel to the Screaming Hut, and Sirius Black let Crookshanks take a note and drill through the gap in the Screaming Hut.
So, Hogsmeade Village welcomed a cat named Crookshanks. Although it had never been to Hogsmeade, it did not prevent Crookshanks from finding Hogsmeade's post office.
Behind the counter of the post office, the middle-aged wizard who was flipping through the Daily Prophet put down the newspaper, wondering why a cat ran here, and the cat still had a note in its mouth.
"A cat that came to the post office to send a letter?"
The middle-aged wizard saw the cat put the note on the counter, looked at the cat in front of him curiously, and reached out to touch Crookshanks' head, which was very novel. He pointed to the note on the counter and asked tentatively: Are you going to send this thing out?
The cat shook his head.
"This is for me?" the man asked again.
Crookshanks nodded this time.
"Really for me?"
The middle-aged wizard took the note, and when he opened it, he found that the note was really for himself.
Moreover, the sender of the letter is actually the famous savior Harry Potter, which is amazing to think about.
The letter is very simple, probably that Harry Potter intends to buy an owl, but for some reason, he can't find a suitable owl to help deliver the letter, so he can only ask the cat to help bring the note, as for buying an owl He can go to Gringotts to pick it up himself, or after receiving the owl, he can make up for it again, as long as he tells the cat the price of the owl.
"What a smart little guy, he actually helps his master buy things." The wizard reached out and scratched the cat's chin, and muttered, "However, to come to the post office to buy owls, really..."
The middle-aged wizard didn't reject the deal in the end. Although it did look amazing, he didn't think anyone would be bored enough to send a smart cat to play with him.
The distance between Hogwarts School and Hogsmeade is not too close, at least it will take a while to get there.
What's more, he still has positive evidence.
"Smart little guy, did you see that owl you planted?" The middle-aged wizard stuffed the note into his pocket, picked up Crookshanks, and walked towards the owls resting in the shop.
Crookshanks circled inside, and finally picked up a small owl in the store, which was the smallest owl in the post office.
Looking at the back of a cat and an owl leaving, the middle-aged wizard murmured: "The cat must be of the cat raccoon bloodline, forget it, it would be nice to have an owner for that noisy little guy."
He is not afraid of the other party's default at all. Until the other party pays off Garen, the ownership of the owl still belongs to him.
If the other party doesn't give money, it can fly back by itself at any time, and he doesn't think Harry Potter will joke about his reputation, and there is no need for that, after all, it is Harry Potter.
Crookshanes took the little owl back to the screaming hut. When it got into the crevice, the owl was still watching, and finally, under the urging of Crookshanks, also followed. Go through the gap and enter the house.
Hearing the movement, the black dog lying in the shadow stood up and walked slowly in front of Crookshanks, looking at the little owl, returning to its human form.
"You did it, thank you, Crookshanks." Sirius Black picked up Crookshanks, smoothed his hair, took out a note, and handed it to the owl .
Actually, instead of sending a letter to the Quidditch boutique to buy Firebolts, Black sent a letter to Kreacher, the house-elf in his hometown.
Although Black doesn't like that guy very much, even he has to admit that the house elf will not betray his master and will unconditionally carry out the master's orders, and Sirius Black, as the last member of the Black family, naturally became Kreacher's owner.
Sirius Black's younger brother disappeared while he was in prison, and his father, Orion, died that year.
At the time, Blake did not return to the funeral.
Later, during his time in prison, Narcissa Black, oh, should have called Narcissa Malfoy to inform him of the death of her mother, Walburga.
He, Sirius Black, who was expelled from the Black family, actually inherited the wealth of the Black family in the end, it is a great irony to think about it.
Black could even guess what Kreacher's face would look like when he received this note.
Actually ~IndoMTL.com~ Blake was right, Kreacher did look amazing after receiving that letter, like he had a **** stuck in his mouth, but he had no choice because the little Sirius was the last heir to the Black family, and Kreacher had no choice.
It is impossible for anyone other than the actual owner of the vault to take the Black Family's gold coins from the Gringotts vault.
However, the loyalty of the house-elves to their masters is undeniable, and Kreacher also brought Black's signature and message, so that the goblins of Gringotts opened the Black family's treasury for it and took away enough money to pay for the fire. Gold coin for crossbow.
Well, and gold coins to pay back that owl.
As for what the Ministry of Magic wanted for Black, the goblins didn't care at all, let alone they couldn't make the house-elves betray their masters.
Therefore, the Quidditch boutique welcomed a house elf, and soon there was a confidential order, they needed to send one to the famous Harry Potter on Christmas Eve A Christmas present, however, no one knew who actually ordered it for Harry.
No one would have thought that the infamous Sirius Black would give Harry Potter such an expensive Christmas present.
