The Harry Potter trio each has its own pet.
Harry's Hedwig, Ron's Blob (later replaced by Juvichon), and Hermione's Crook Mountain.
As a cat controller, Xiao Si's favorite is of course Crook Mountain.
Don't look at the movie, Crook Mountain has very little "scene".
In fact, in the novel, Crook Mountain has many "highlight" moments!
1, found that the spot is not a real mouse
Ever since Hermione bought Crook Hill, she and Ron's Blob have started a "cat-and-mouse war".
It turns out that Crook Mountain was the first to discover that Spotted was not a real mouse, but an Animagus state of Pettigrew Peter.
Because of this, Crooksan always chased after the spot, just to keep the stinky rat away from its owner and her friends
Unfortunately, the film does not pick out this relationship. If you haven't read the original book, you might think that Crook Mountain's pursuit of Spot is out of the cat's instinct.
2. Help Sirius steal the door opening order
In addition to Hermione, Crook Mountain had another friend, and that was Sirius.
Or rather, Sirius in the State of Animagus.
While everyone was still misinterpreting Sirius, Crooksan chose to believe her new friend completely.
It stole a note from the forgetful Neville Longbottom with the gryffindor dorm entry password and handed it to Sirius.
Unfortunately, Peter Pettigrew was not in the dormitory, but hid in Hagrid's hut.
3. Help Harry and Hermione enter the Willow Secret Passage
After Sirius grabs Ron (actually trying to grab the spot in Ron's hand) and drags him into the Willow Tunnel, Harry and Hermione, who are trying to save people, are attacked by Willow.
In fact, if you don't know how to enter the secret passage, the possibility of breaking into it like in the movie is not very like that - don't underestimate the power of hitting the willow! After all, no one has been able to break in for more than ten years.
In the novel, in order to protect the injured Hermione, Crooksan dodged the attack of the branches and slapped the knot scar of the trunk with his claws, causing the beating willow to stop.
Harry and Hermione were able to enter the secret passage smoothly.
Crook Mountain, another credit!
4. Protect Sirius
In the Screaming Shack, he was "hated" sirius until Harry knew the truth.
In order to snatch the wand from Sirius's hand, Harry wrestled with Sirius.
At this time, Crook Mountain also rushed up to protect Sirius. It grabbed Harry's arm so hard that it tried to snatch the wand, but was kicked away by Harry.
When Harry tried to cast a spell on Sirius with his wand, Crook Mountain bravely stood guard in front of Sirius.
Harry hesitated, and Lupin arrived just in time before he could recite the spell "Kill" Sirius and Crook Mountain.
It has to be said that if it weren't for Crook Hill, Harry would probably have made a mistake that he would regret for the rest of his life.
5. Give Sirius gifts
The Firebolt is Sirius's 13th birthday gift to Harry.
But because Sirius was still a fugitive at that time, he could not come forward directly, so, as a good friend of his, Crooksan went to the post office on his behalf and ordered a little owl to deliver the letter.
And this owl became Ron's new pet, Zhu Weiqiong.
Ron also asked Crook Mountain to help determine if the little owl would be an Animagus again.
I have to say that Crook Hill is really the smartest cat in Harry Potter.
Really envious, the friendship between Crook Mountain and Sirius!!
