After dinner, Luna had just returned to Ravenclaw's lounge. Within a few minutes, Professor Flitwick entered the lounge with a serious face.

Professor Flitwick told everyone that Sirius Black appeared. He attacked the portrait of the Gryffindor lounge and may still be staying somewhere in Hogwarts. In order to protect everyone's safety, the school decided to put all The students gathered in the Great Hall until they found Sirius Black or confirmed that he was no longer at Hogwarts before letting everyone go back to their respective towers.

"How on earth did he do it? Hogwarts is so heavily guarded."

"And weren't there dementors? They let Black slip in."

The Ravenclaws were discussing all the way, Luna was not curious about this matter, that Sirius Black was able to escape from Azkaban, which meant that the group of dementors couldn't see him at all, and let them guard him. Hogwarts is simply pointless.

In the auditorium, students from the four colleges were already there. Professor Dumbledore gently told everyone not to worry, and they would be able to return to their respective colleges tomorrow morning.

But it was still fun to spend the night in the auditorium together, at least for Luna, because Ginny dragged a sleeping bag and Luna squeezed together.

Luna thought that there would be no follow-up to this matter, Hogwarts had returned to normal, and few people would mention Sirius Black, because everyone felt that it was impossible for him to appear again.

Only a week later, something unexpected happened to Luna in the Forbidden Forest.

It was Saturday, and Luna planned to sneak into the Forbidden Forest to play, or to find thestrals.When I ran here with the twins before, I played around with them, and Luna didn't dare to say anything about the Thestrals, because they were creatures that only those who had seen death could see.

It's just that Luna didn't see thestrals all the way to the Whomping Willow.

"If you come here alone, this is the limit, and you can't go any further." Fred once warned.

So Luna planned to just walk around and not go any further.

"Meow!"--

There was a very ear-piercing meow, and it seemed to be a very familiar meow.

"Crookshanks?" Luna was quite surprised to see Hermione's cat in the Forbidden Forest. Although Hermione always complained that Crookshanks would often run away, she probably wouldn't even think of her cat. will run into the Forbidden Forest.

Crookshanks also met Luna, and Luna guessed that it might recognize herself, but Crookshanks' reaction next surprised her.That big ginger cat that looked like a little tiger, with all its fur standing up, its already big and protruding eyes widened even further, barking desperately at Luna.

Luna was a little dizzy from the harsh cat meowing, and she couldn't think of why Crookshanks rejected her like this.

"Wait, Crookshanks, don't you know me?" Luna said hastily, but the big ginger cat still looked like she wanted to force Luna away.

Just as Luna was standing there not knowing what to do, there was a sound behind her, like something jumping out.

Luna quickly turned her head to look, this time, she was surprised and delighted, "Little wolf!"

The one standing near the Whooping Willow was the big black dog that Luna had met on the Muggle streets of London before.

"Meow!"---

Without giving Luna any time to get excited, Crookshanks suddenly rushed towards Luna like crazy!

"Ah!" Luna avoided sideways dangerously, but the sleeve of the wizard robe on her body was still scratched by Crookshanks' sharp claws.

"Crookshanks, what's wrong with you?" Luna looked depressedly at the big ginger cat that just wanted to tear herself apart.

And Crookshanks still stared at Luna fiercely, preparing for the next attack.

"Woooo..." A deep voice came from the big black dog. Crookshanks immediately jumped over when he heard the sound, and stood beside the big dog.

Luna felt that what happened in these few minutes was going beyond her comprehension. She couldn't figure out why a dog from the Muggle world would come to the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts, and she couldn't figure out why Ke Lukeshan and it look like good friends.

"Uh..." Luna realized that there was a lot of food in her bag, which was originally brought to the Thestrals, but now that the Thestrals couldn't find it, she met another big dog instead, "Little wolf? Do you want something to eat?" ?”

Luna tentatively opened her bag and put it on the ground. She was a little afraid of the big ginger cat that was still staring at her.

This kind of scene is very strange, a dog, a cat and a little girl are looking at each other in blank dismay beside a Whomping Willow. By the way, speaking of Whomping Willow, Luna realized that today it is so quiet that it is completely different from usual Li went crazy after being touched lightly.

After thinking too far, Luna quickly turned her attention back to the two animals in front of her. In fact, after meeting the big dog that day, Luna often thought about a question, whether this dog can understand human speech, But that day Luna was pretty sure she didn't say the word "Leaky Cauldron."Or is it really just a dog?Luna looked at the huge eyes of the giant dog in front of her.

"Little wolf, what are you?" Luna asked calmly.

Time seemed to stand still for a second. After a second, Luna noticed that the big black dog in front of her began to change. It gradually became longer and thinner, and its shape began to approach the size of a human.

When Luna saw the face of the person in front of her clearly, she felt that she was speechless in astonishment. It was impossible to say that she had no fear at all, but Luna was more shocked. The escape from Azkaban The prisoner actually showed up in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts so openly.

"Are you going to report to the school?" Sirius Black's voice sounded very hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time.

"No!" Luna said quickly, but her tone sounded like she was being threatened. She collected herself and looked at Sirius Black carefully.

Luna can be sure that she has never seen anyone who is more emaciated than him. His hair is tangled together, and his face is dirty, but it can't completely cover his pale complexion. A piece of his forehead is oozing Blood, surrounded by coagulated blood scabs.

"You hit the wall with your head?" As soon as the words came out, Luna herself was taken aback. She actually asked such a question to a prisoner in Azkaban so calmly.

Sirius Black obviously didn't think about it, "Is that why you're not afraid of me?"

Luna thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "Don't be afraid. If I had seen your original appearance first, I might have been afraid, but the first thing I met was the little wolf in the Muggle world. so I don’t feel scared when Sirius Black is a wolf.”

"Don't call me that name again." Sirius frowned.

"Little wolf?" Luna asked.

"Stop barking!" Sirius looked a little impatient, he glared at Luna, and then asked, "Do you know Harry Potter?"

"No one at Hogwarts doesn't know him," Luna said. "I know you're looking for him, but if you want to do something to Harry..."

Before Luna finished speaking, Sirius interrupted her very irritablely, "I won't do anything against Harry! I never betrayed James! I didn't do any of that!"

Sirius started screaming like crazy, and the birds in the surrounding trees were frightened, flapping their wings and leaving.

"Keep your voice down," Luna said hastily, "Maybe Hagrid will hear the movement. He lives not far from the Forbidden Forest."

Luna guessed that Sirius must have been imprisoned for too long, so now his mood is extremely unstable, not to mention that even if he escapes from Azkaban, he still cannot see the light of day again, because the whole world is looking for him, can he It's not even just a cat that helps him.

"I trust you, Mr. Black!"

Sirius frowned for a moment before realizing that Luna was talking about believing.

Luna heard a version of the story from Sirius Black that was the exact opposite of what the outside world had told her.

It was not him who betrayed James and Lily back then, but Pettigrew Peter, who was sacrificed as a hero.Originally, the Potters asked Sirius to be their secret keeper so that their location would never be discovered by Voldemort (Sirius always said the word Voldemort, which made Luna a little unbearable), but Sirius persuaded them to choose Pettigrew acts as a secret-keeper so that even if Voldemort captures him, he will never know where the Potters live.But the Potter family was still found by Voldemort, and only Harry was left alive. Sirius found Pettigrew, but he was very cunning. He killed twelve innocent Muggles, and he was only blown up. Finger instead of just a finger!

Sirius said these words almost in a growl, his mood was very unstable.

"You mean Peter Pettigrew is alive?" Luna asked.

"Of course he's alive! He's the mouse! The red-haired boy's mouse!" cried Sirius.

Luna immediately realized what Sirius was referring to. He was talking about Ron's mouse Scabbers. "You mean, that mouse is an Animagus like you?"

Even in the entire wizarding world, there are very few people who can turn into animals. Professor McGonagall at Hogwarts is one, and it is obvious that Sirius turned from a dog into a human being, but he said that Scabbers was also made of a human. changing……

"Twelve years? That's right!" Luna suddenly thought of something. "Ron said that Scabbers has been in their house for 12 years. No mouse can live that long."

"Because he's not a mouse at all!" cried Sirius angrily.

"So that's why you've been chasing Banban?" Luna looked at Crookshanks next to him, who yelled arrogantly.

Luna paused for a few seconds, she wanted to do something to help Sirius, "If you believe me, I'll help you bring Scabbers here."

"What did you say?" Sirius frowned, apparently not expecting Luna to say that.

"Ron and I are also good friends. Recently, he was very angry because Crookshanks always wanted to catch Banban. If I told him that I wanted to help him raise Banban for a few days, he would not refuse." Luna was confident. said.

"What's your name?"

Only then did Luna realize that she hadn't reported her name, "My name is Luna, Luna Lovegood, and I'm a student of Ravenclaw."

Sirius seemed less emotional than before, he calmed down a lot, "Thank you, let's go, you have been in the Forbidden Forest for too long."

Luna was not sure whether Sirius believed in herself completely, but she also understood that a wizard who had experienced so much could not easily trust a 12-year-old girl.

"Mr. Black, don't worry, I will bring Scabbers here."

Luna was the one who left the Forbidden Forest with Crookshanks, and she left a schoolbag of food for Sirius.

It's just that she didn't expect that when she and Ron mentioned Banban, it seemed that she hit his sore spot all of a sudden.

"Scabbard is dead! He was eaten by that crazy cat!"

Then Harry told Luna that when they returned to the dormitory just now, Ron's bed sheet had some blood on it, and there were some ginger hairs under the bed. They looked everywhere, but they didn't find Scabbers.

But it is impossible for Crookshanks to eat Scabbers, let alone stay in the Forbidden Forest all afternoon, even if it catches Scabbers, it will immediately go to Sirius instead of eating them directly.

It's just that Luna has no way to tell Harry, because he can't believe that the mouse that has been by Ron's side for so many years can be changed from a human.

The next day Luna went to the Forbidden Forest to tell Sirius Black that Scabbers had disappeared, but she couldn't find Sirius Black after searching around, so she had to put some under a big rock next to the Whomping Willow. Food and notes, let him not worry, as long as the mouse is still alive, he will definitely be able to find it.
