"Why did you ask about him?" Penny felt a little uncomfortable.
Fenong, who had just entered the door, his eyes gradually became dangerous.
he?
A man I had never heard of allowed his wife to show such a posture.
"He is my professor now." Harry pushed his luggage and sat on the sofa. "He and my mother seem to know each other."
Penny gritted her teeth: "They knew each other before they went to that freak school!"
"Ever since she met him, Lily has become crazy!"
Harry raised an eyebrow.
This is really surprising.
"Can you tell me more about it?" He sat down and asked.
Petunia took a deep breath and sat down at the other end of the sofa. Fenon followed suit and hugged her tightly: "Your mother Lily is very smart and has been outstanding since she was a child."
"We were still living in Cokeworth at that time, and Snape was a child from the slums not far away. I still remember that he lived in the poorest Spider End Lane. It was dirty, no matter the lane was him."
Harry added: "It's pretty much the same now."
Petunia was a little stuck and paused before continuing: "When she was nine years old, something strange happened to Lily, just like you."
"It can make withered flowers become bright again, and it can restore injured birds to health..."
Speaking of this, there was a tiny hint of envy in her eyes.
"Snape got to know her, and they had a good relationship. Then they went to that school together and became wizards."
"But when they were fifteen, they suddenly parted ways and stopped contacting each other."
"In other words, it should be Lily who unilaterally severed ties with Snape."
"I've seen him sneak up on my house several times, several times."
so…
In the drawer, there is a photo of my mother, she was fifteen years old.
The past, the past, what is hidden?
Harry asked again: "What's their reason?"
"I don't know." Petunia shook her head, with a hint of joy in her tone, "But wouldn't it be great if Lily kicked that annoying guy away?"
"Didn't you ask her about Hogwarts?" Harry continued to ask.
Penny shook her head: "No."
"You don't want to be a witch, why don't you ask about these things?" Harry was a little surprised.
Penny's face turned panicked, and she subconsciously glanced at Fenon: "No, how did you know about this? I've never told anyone else..."
"Dumbledore told me," Harry replied.
Petunia gritted her teeth: "How dare he!"
Harry sighed. He thought that Petunia and her mother were biological sisters, so he should know more, but the truth opened his eyes.
"What kind of conflict was there?" Harry asked.
Penny didn't really want to say it.
"Let me guess." Harry stared at Petunia, "You hate wizards, and that's about the letter you sent to Dumbledore?"
Penny's expression changed.
"My mother saw her and said something bad?" Harry slowly continued, observing the changes in his face.
Penny grew impatient.
"And Snape is involved?" Harry raised an eyebrow and continued.
Petunia looked at Harry with fear and surprise.
Fenon stood up, stood in front of Petunia, and shouted at Harry: "That's enough, brat! Don't use any bullshit mind-reading magic on us!"
"I didn't use any spells." Harry said with a sincere expression, "Little wizards are not allowed to use spells outside of school."
"It seems that the relationship between my aunt and my mother is worse than I thought. Don't you know this?"
Fenon nodded, his face and tone full of surprise: "Ah ha, you are not allowed to use those weird tricks. This is really a good rule!"
"I advise you not to make any strange ideas." Harry said calmly, "Even if I can't use magic, I think I can solve you."
Fenon and Harry looked at each other.
He thought of what happened last year and subconsciously raised his hand to touch his waist.
After hesitating for a moment, he sat back down and hugged Penny.
Harry no longer hoped to learn more about his mother from Petunia, and he also had a new impression of his mother in his mind - maybe her emotional intelligence was not high, just like Hermione's.
He spoke in a gentle tone: "Aunt, thank you for your help. In return, do you want to help Dudley lose some fat?"
Penny screamed in horror, "What do you want to do to my baby boy?"
Fenon patted her back: "Potion, dear, it's magic potion."
"The reaction of you and your wife is really interesting." Harry waved his hand, "I just learned about the weight loss potion. If there is a need, I can make a portion."
Fenon shook his head heavily: "Impossible, I tell you it's absolutely impossible. Our family will not drink those weird things from you..."
He didn't finish his sentence.
Dudley popped his head from the stairs: "Dad, I think I need it!"
Fenon was stunned and looked over with Harry.
Dudley took a deep breath and emphasized: "I really need it!"
Harry stood up, walked to his luggage, and dragged it upstairs: "Of course, I will send it to you as a Christmas gift."
"Why not now?" Dudley asked confidently.
Harry shook his head: "You are not allowed to use magic spells during the summer vacation. My dear cousin, I just said this. It seems that your mind is not much better than that of a troll."
Dudley pursed his lips. He didn't dare to continue bossing his cousin around like before, so he nodded reluctantly.
They met on the stairs.
Harry looked at Dudley - before going to school, he was shorter than Dudley, but now he is almost taller: "Maybe, what should you say to me?"
Dudley took half a step back, frowned, thought hard, and managed to say: "Thank you."
"You're welcome, my dear cousin," Harry responded.
I dragged my luggage back to the room, read a book for a while, and then fell asleep.
Holidays are much more boring than school. You can't cast spells, and many things can only stay in textbooks without being practiced. You have to stay like this for at least a month.
Hermione's letters became Harry's best pastime to pass the time.
But it was only three days.
The message came to an abrupt end.
Hermione didn't send any new letters for several days. He sent a letter to Ron but didn't get a response.
Of course, maybe they don’t want to reply or they forgot to reply.
But the speed of the owl will never change. Hedwig has come back too early these days, saving nearly three times the time than before.
Do owls also go on strike?
Or……
Someone is intercepting my letters?
It's a pity that I don't understand bird language, otherwise I would have just asked Hedwig.
He rolled up the parchment, stuffed it into the envelope, tied it to Hedwig's leg, told it to fly slower, put on the invisibility cloak, and followed behind it quietly.
Before leaving Privet Drive, Hedwig had just flown over a house.
"Snapped--"
A crisp sound.
A short elf-like creature appeared out of thin air. He snapped his fingers, and Hedwig suddenly froze in the air and fell obediently in front of it.
It nervously and cautiously untied the letter from Hedwig's feet. After taking it into its hands, it did something that made Harry very unbelievable.
The hammer head hit the ground with a bang, clods of soil flew out, and soon there was blood.
This is…
A very strange way to express happiness?
Harry took off his invisibility cloak, walked behind the creature, and held its head: "Very good, so it was you who intercepted my letter?"
This creature turned around in fear. When it saw Harry, it beat its head even more crazily: "Bad Dobby, bad Dobby, Potter discovered what he was doing!"
"Your name is Dobby?" Harry grabbed its hands, clasped them behind his back, then grasped the folded wrists and picked it up like a prey, "Stop celebrating now and answer my question."
"Dobby is punishing himself!" it screamed, "Bad Dobby, bad Dobby!"
"Stop barking!" Harry raised his voice to drown out its voice.
This is useful.
Dobby immediately fell silent, sobbing quietly and occasionally.
"Why are you blocking my letter?" Harry asked.
Dobby's face became panicked: "Dobby must protect Harry Potter and must keep him. Harry Potter cannot be allowed to return to Hogwarts."
"I don't think you are protecting me." Harry shook his head. The eyes of this creature were very clean, and there was no malice or bad aura. He chose to believe it for the time being, "Why do you do this?"
"Conspiracy, there is a conspiracy!" Dobby's face became even more frightened, "A terrible thing will happen in Hogwarts this year!"
"Is there anything more terrifying than Voldemort?" Harry continued to ask.
Dobby shuddered, his body trembling violently: "No, not the person who must not even be named."
"Tell me what it is." Harry's tone became softer.
Dobby shook his head: "No, Dobby can't say!"
Harry raised his hand and made a gesture - he and Professor Flitwick had confirmed that the power of the sigil seemed to be able to escape the detection of trace silk.
Axis!
White light penetrated Dobby's head.
Harry was about to speak.
Dobby came to his senses almost immediately: "Oh no, Harry Potter what are you going to do to Dobby?"
Harry was a little surprised.
The seal of the law expired so quickly?
"Harry Potter can't return to Hogwarts!" Dobby said quickly.
Harry frowned: "Tell me why, or I will chop off your head."
Dobby was not afraid of this. His tone was very calm: "Harry Potter would not do such a thing. He is so great and kind..."
Suddenly it was stunned.
"Dobby has to go."
"Dobby's master is calling for Dobby."
A snap——
Just as it came, it disappeared without a trace.
Harry looked at his empty hands and just... left?
What kind of creature is this?
There was no mention of such a creature in the "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" I read, nor have I seen it in other books.
With a thin body, it is almost impossible to detect much magical energy, but this ability...
There are not many professors in the academy who can cast spells without a wand or a spell.
Harry picked up Hedwig, who was standing on the ground in a daze, and walked back home with a heavy heart.
