Neither of them said anything, and Hermione started wondering whether this was actually the High Reeve and not some random Death Eater coming here to take her. She looked around after getting a strange feeling of being watched, and she could swear she saw Moody hiding in the shadows, nodding to her. She looked back up at the High Reeve – it was impossible to guess what he was thinking, what he wanted, what he expected from her because his face was hidden and all she saw before her was camouflage. But something in his body language made her think he was looking down at Crookshanks in her hands.
