Vol 7 Chapter 500: persuade

Popular recommendation:

"Blake, you're a complete asshole!"

No. 4 Privet Drive these days can be heard on and off, but the Dursleys turn a blind eye to it, as if the quarrel on the other side doesn't come through at all.

They are decent people and don't bother to…

Well, that's not true, the fact is that they are very fond of listening to the gossip of their neighbors, and tirelessly discuss these overheard things one way or another.

However, the people living next to them are the type of people they hate the most. To be precise, the most hated child in their family lives there, but occasionally when it is certain that the other party and the rest of the neighbors can't hear the complaints, the male owner of the house is still there. There will be arguments of one kind or another.

"Such a big family ... no one is willing to work hard, and they haven't seen out several times throughout the holiday. I suspect their house is full of all kinds of garbage."

Vernon muttered disapprovingly, "Trash should stay with trash."

It's been more than half a month since the summer vacation, and the family hadn't come out a few times at all. If the money sent every month hadn't been broken, he would have almost forgotten the **** agreement signed at that time.

"Fortunately, although the guy moved to the next door, at least there are no more strange guys in this yard."

"Yes, indeed."

Penny responded with some hesitation.

But their conversation was soon interrupted by the knock on the glass. .

"owl!!"

Vernon screamed. He grabbed what he had and tried to give the long-eared owl a hard blow, but it was deftly dodged. A letter fell down, and the owl gave a dissatisfied cry, After leaving some other souvenirs on the table, they flew away.

"Damn bastards, those strange guys don't have a reliable thing. Didn't they say that they would never come to disturb our lives?"

Vernon waved his arms and poured out his dissatisfaction, while Penny, who was beside him, picked up the letter, glanced at the envelope and froze in place.

"Tear up that **** letter, Penny."

"I want to see…"

To Vernon's surprise, his wife rejected his proposal for the first time, and he shook his head and went to find tissues to deal with the **** owl excrement.

When he scolded for the tissue, Penny quickly opened the letter and browsed it quickly.

"He's coming."

"Who?"

"Dumbledore."

Vernon turned his head, the name felt familiar.

Petunia got nervous as she said, "He's going to visit us and talk—well, talk about Harry."

"It's all your stupid thing, Bigfoot! Now that Dumbledore is coming, I'll see what you do!"

Lupin cursed angrily while looking at the letter.

He's one of the best-tempered professors in the castle, but hasn't stopped cursing at all this week - since he found Harry with a mandrake leaf in his mouth.

As one of the parties who witnessed his friend's self-study all the way, he didn't stop to scold Sirius for this idiot these days.

Without consulting anyone, even without his knowledge, he began to secretly teach Harry Animagus Transfiguration - if he hadn't thought that Harry's voice seemed to be hoarse for too long, it might not be until the first step of the spell was realized. It is possible to find out about this.

If Harry hadn't seen his first step close, he'd have to stop.

But now, Harry's first step is almost completed, and the theoretical knowledge is also taught to the middle school by Sirius one-on-one. It would be a pity to stop.

"What now? Let Dumbledore know you're teaching Harry this dangerous spell, and you'll just wait!"

Lupin grew angrier as he spoke, Dumbledore's letter rattled with the waving of his arm, and Sirius didn't dare to say a word, as if Professor McGonagall had run up to him to reprimand him.

"Then what to do... I've learned everything here, Harry is learning very fast, and he will almost be able to complete his transformation this summer..."

"Say it, say it!"

Lupin regrets it now, he thinks he should have stopped earlier, but now...

"I don't think I need to prepare one way or another for a crazy old man, I don't need to put on my suit at all!"

Vernon grumbled, but had to change at his wife's pleas.

After waiting nervously for about half an hour, there was a knock on the door.

A tall, thin man in a black travel cloak appeared at the door, ignoring Vernon's extremely impolite eyes, "It should be here, it's been a long time since I last came here."

"However, let's assume that you have warmly invited me into your house. After all, from the looks of you, you are already mentally prepared for my visit."

He nimbly crossed the threshold and closed the door behind him.

"Black, you...!!"

Lupin's almost roaring voice loomed from next door, which brought a smile to Dumbledore's face, "I think you should remember that agreement and also received the monthly delivery of Harry's past and present living expenses.”

"Yes..." Vernon had the strength to retort when he mentioned money, "I'm not being too greedy, but—"

"Greediness tends to cost us more," interrupted Dumbledore in a serious tone, "so don't say anything, dear man. Ah, this must be Penny, my letter to you. must have received it."

After about ten minutes, the conversation ended happily.

Dumbledore said that Harry's monthly living expenses will be increased appropriately, and the Dursleys will, as always, admit that this is Harry's home.

After reiterating everything again, Dumbledore calmly left here. In anticipation of seeing off the guests from the Dursleys, he went straight out and knocked on the door next door...

"I knew... a lunatic is a lunatic!"

"I just came over from next door."

Dumbledore looked at the nervous and trembling Sirius at the door and Lupin, who was not very good-looking, "It looks like you guys are having a good time..."

[To tell the truth, recently I have been using Mimi to read and read books to keep up with updates, switch sources, and read aloud tones, which can be used by Android and Apple. 】

"Ah, that's it, fortunately, sometimes there will be some noise."

Considering that Sirius was so nervous that he didn't dare to speak, Lupin had to bite the bullet and meet him—hell, even if he met Professor McGonagall, he wouldn't be as hopeless as he is today!

Just not long ago, he suddenly remembered an important thing - the leaves of the mandrakes need a long spell maintenance after a month of holding them until the thunderstorm arrives, and when Harry is almost finished, the summer vacation. It's only been halfway through...

After he asked curiously, Sirius gave him the answer: "Then I will find an excuse to ask Harry to help Hagrid, because the Thunderbird at Hogwarts has not been returned yet, so it doesn't take long to wait. of…"

‘If you send it to school, wouldn’t that be the same as telling Dumbledore that Harry was secretly learning Animagus? ’

With that in mind, he had to tell Sirius how imperfect his plan was... albeit with a roar...

"Anyway, I'm very pleased to see you live here happily."

Dumbledore nodded and looked at Harry, "Good morning, Harry, you seem to be having a great time."

"Yes, Professor, very happy."

Harry tried hard not to let himself watch the hidden game console next to the TV, and tried to hold down the mandrake leaves under his tongue so as not to reveal any flaws.

"That's great, can I come into the living room?"

"Of course, of course!"

Sirius only returned to his state at this time, turned his head and shouted towards the kitchen, "Dobby, is the wine ready?"

"Of course!"

The elf responded with joy, although it helped organize and hide most of the things in the house that were not related to study, but at the moment it didn't feel tired.

Soon, the wine was opened, everyone sat on the sofa, glasses were placed in front of everyone, and even Harry had a glass bottom poured in front of him.

"It's so much better than my treatment at Malfoy Manor."

Dumbledore laughed, "It can be seen that you have a very harmonious life, which is very happy."

"This is a home visit," Dumbledore raised his glass. "Besides, I need Harry and I to do one more thing."

"doing something?"

"Yes, to do things, things that must be done by Harry himself."

Dumbledore smiled, "Although it's a little difficult to coordinate, I've done everything in front of me."

The chat went on very happily, and after lunch, Dumbledore finally got up to say goodbye, and took Harry with him.

"It will probably be done by the afternoon, if everything goes well enough," Dumbledore smiled and motioned for Harry to stand beside him, then walked towards the door.

"By the way," he stopped abruptly, "although the US Ministry of Magic hasn't extradited that Thunderbird because of the chaos, you still have to be careful - next year is Harry's OWLs year, and I don't think he Find a chance to try again in the middle of your busy schoolwork.”

"Come on, Harry."

After Dumbledore reminded him, he said to Harry with a smile, "Let's hurry up, or he'll make excuses for oversleeping at lunch or something."

He left quickly with Harry, leaving behind the dumbfounded Sirius and Lupin.

"Hurry up and study, Harry, this is the year of the owls, and I believe it's an unparalleled pressure, especially with Professor William, I don't think he will like the fact that you played a holiday game console during the holiday."

Following Dumbledore's first words after going out, Harry was also stunned - together for a long time, the group of them didn't hide anything.

Seeing Harry's dumbfounded appearance, Dumbledore smiled even more happily, "Although we heard many complaints about Professor William's excessive examination papers last semester, according to the letters received in the school this holiday, parents They seem to be very satisfied with Professor William and are urging him to continue teaching fifth grade, so this year…”

"Is Professor William taking us?"

"That's right."

Dumbledore's affirmative response left Harry unsure of what to say for a while, but he quickly added, "It's still early, you don't have to worry too much for now, hold my hand - we're still If they don't leave, Professor Lupin and the others will be puzzled."

Harry soon found himself in an upscale neighborhood with a feeling of being squeezed in a pipe.

"Sir, where is this?"

"The house of an old friend, we have a professor gap again this year, so let's persuade my former colleague, a retired old professor, to come back to work."

Dumbledore looked at the surrounding scenery and responded.

"How can I help, sir?"

Harry was very curious, he really couldn't think of what Dumbledore would do with him, he was never good at guessing what other people thought, and he didn't think it was easier to convince a professor than to convince his girlfriend...

But Dumbledore didn't give any explanation, he had no choice but to follow silently, and then came to the best house in this high-end community.

"It's over here."

Dumbledore pointed, and Harry quickly recognized that this was the wizard's house - or it didn't need to be recognized at all, the house here was surrounded by a number of owls, and as far as Harry recognized it, a new one flew over. .

'So flamboyant...'

This is Harry's first impression, UU reading www. uukanshu.com He never imagined that there would be wizards living with such fanfare...

"Come on, it looks like we have more guests than we thought."

Dumbledore glanced at the surroundings for a moment, immediately came to a conclusion, and then rang the doorbell.

After a few seconds, there was a commotion inside, and soon, a bald little old man appeared at the door, "Albus, it's really good that you are here, I thought you would be later! "

His face was full of joy, and he even gave Dumbledore a hug before shouting back, "Oh, sorry my lovely boys, today's party has to end early, and I have to get along with You guys are sorry, I have a very, very important matter to discuss next, so I can't keep you guys today."

He yelled inwardly with regret, but Harry could always sense the ostentation in his tone - which he didn't like.

Harry even suspected that Dumbledore's former colleague in front of him was deliberately showing off something by letting those partying people see Dumbledore...

"It's a little messy, Albus, but I'll just show you my colorful retirement life..."

"Seriously, when it's time to retire, we have to retire so we have enough time to enjoy time and other..."

He waved his arms in a very exaggerated way, and while speaking, he sent the wizards who were leaving one after another, and greeted enthusiastically, "I will come to participate next time—"

As he approached the living room, he finally had time to look at the rest of the place.

The next second, he was stunned, and his big round eyes looked at Harry's forehead and the lightning-shaped scar on his forehead, "Ho!"
