Chapter 148
Perhaps because of Gail's insignificant words, or because the two sisters themselves came to a consensus, on the train from school, Lily declined James' invitation to visit her home again during the holidays: "This will be the last summer vacation that Penny and I can relax in years!" We leave time for each other. ”
Yes, next year's summer vacation will be followed by another exam year, Lily will be very busy, and Penny will have to apply to college.
After that, Lily will also enter ordinary people college after graduation, although Penny may have adapted to her new life by entering college a year earlier than Lily, but it is clear that Lily is still a newbie and will inevitably be in a hurry.
The two sisters tacitly excluded everyone except their parents from the list of interpersonal interactions during the holidays.
Lily even got a small alchemy product in Diagon Alley that could store some magical power, and the spell recited by the guò user's voice triggered could give Penny a brief taste of what it was like to be a wizard.
With all that said, it's clear that James and Dursley are going to have a lonely summer vacation.
"I don't want to at all!" James glanced at Siris and Remus and said vaguely. His good buddies didn't choose one of the girls who were infatuated with his chic and uninhibited temperament, but found another buddy of his own, which was a nightmare!
Moreover, these two guys will also live with themselves during the summer vacation! Couple! Dangle in front of your eyes! The indignant James finally opened up a little bit in the emotional field of normal people, knowing that it was not a good feeling to be shown off.
As the Hogwarts Express was about to enter King's Cross Station, James seemed to finally have a way to make his summer vacation less sad: "Gail! Severus! ”
"What?" Frightened by James' cannon-like voice, Gale almost threw the soldering pen in his hand.
"Summer vacation! Summer vacation! James jumped up from his seat with his hands in hand.
"Well, we all know that summer vacation has started since we packed our bags and headed to Hogwarts Express this morning. I thought it was more than half a day and you should calm down! ”
"No, I mean, you and Severus should come to my house for the summer! I have a lot of houses! There's also a potions lab and lots of books and magical items! Oh, and by the way, there are also some precious potions wrapped in time bottles, some of which are extinct! You can be my tutor! And you can also give us some advice when we make the map! ”
Although James was a little incoherent and a little clueless in what he said, the main message was extracted from these words - "You invited me and Severus to your house for the summer vacation?" ”
"Yes! All summer vacation! ”
"Can you decide the fate of the potions in the time and space bottles?" Gail asked with a smile.
"Well, actually, I've always felt that those things are useless, and Doriah said that they are for those who deserve it. I guess the youngest Potions Master should be someone who deserves it, right? Besides, what is the use of them except to look good on the shelf and highlight the antiquity of my family name? James was very open-minded about this, and felt that it was not a tyrannical thing to make the best use of it.
"James, you stupid and lovable boy!" Gail also stood up, walked over to James, who was standing in the middle of the box and tried to convince Gail and Severus, and punched James, "Trust me, you will definitely not regret it." ”
Perhaps no one in this world could think of anyone but James himself who thought that inviting Gale and Severus to his home would make him feel better off during his summer vacation.
Some people may guess, but it is clear that the others in this box are still simply thinking that James made this move for friendship or pure whim. But is that really the case?
Let's rewind the clock to a time when James knew he could only spend the summer with two buddies who had digested it internally.
As I said before, James has finally grown within the normal emotional range of human beings, and knows that being shown off is actually a very unpleasant and envious and jealous thing.
Of course, although James was not shown by his friends in the first ten years of his life, Charles and Doria are a well-known model couple in the wizarding world, and it can be said that the life experience of the two of them after they met can basically write a romance novel of millions of words.
Unfortunately, James at that time had not yet enlightened. Although he subconsciously stalked Lily with his beast-like intuition, that tendon just didn't hit the right place.
Even the relationship between Gail and Severus. James had to make sure with Lily and Remus again and again, only to know that Gail and Severus had upgraded from good friends to partners - don't ask why he didn't confirm with Ciris that James's beastly instincts told him that Cialis and him were half a pound or two.
But! As he gradually understood his careful thoughts about Lily, certain emotional cognitions lurking in his body, always suppressed by primitive wild intuition, began to awaken.
And at the end of this semester, after Lily's uncontrollable crying, James felt that his emotions had finally improved substantially. Just as he was about to show off to his buddy, look what he found!
Aha! His good buddy! Two good buddies! Kissing in a dormitory where no one is there during the day!
Although the two of them quickly separated when he rushed in like a gust of wind, his eyes were very good! As a Seeker! He gambled on his dignity, these two guys turned out to be the same as Gail and Severus!
The boys' plan to gather at Potter's house during the summer vacation to complete the map was predetermined. Originally, according to James's plan, although Charles and Doria, who had recovered their senses, were two old and unscrupulous, they had good brothers! Also, Lily is the girl she loves! They're evenly matched, aren't they? (Isn't it normal to show affection with your parents like a competition?) )
But now! Lily is not coming! Remus and Sirius are clearly already a couple! With the addition of Charles and Doria, James will face a double show face!
So, since I'm not feeling well, I'd better let Gail and Severus come to the house too! Compared to showing off such a thing, even Charles and Doria can't compare to these two people! After all, the two of them are James' emotional trigger teachers!
If Gail knew that James was so verbose...... And the strange mental activity, he must think that James was concentrated by the confusion spell or the confusion potion or something--and then pulling a pair of guys who are considered to show affection and love in his heart, doesn't he sprinkle a handful of salt on his envy, jealousy, hatred, emptiness, loneliness, and cold wounds?
But in fact, James is just a short circuit in his brain, and thinks that he can use Gale and Severus to fight poison - but in fact, this kind of idea is not something that ordinary people can come up with.
In the midst of James's twists and turns, the Hogwarts Express finally pulled into the platform.
The little wizards in the carriage got off the train one after another, passed through the ticket gate of the platform of nine and three-quarters, and left among the ordinary people to start their summer vacation.
Or, like most graduates, they stayed on the platform for a short while, presumably saying goodbye to the train and their school days. Maybe the next time they come here, it's to send their children to school. Graduation, separation, is always a little sad.
James was eager to pack Gail and Severus into his house directly, but it was obvious that there was only one Ciris who could go back to Potter Manor directly with him.
"Oh come on, James! Gale and Severus always have to go home to see it, and Remus has to go see Mr. and Mrs. Lupin! Lily was a little laughing and crying about James's sometimes saying that the wind is the rain.
"And how about tomorrow?" James answered immediately.
Gail was noncommittal about such eagerness. Severus was nothing, and the reason why he wanted to go back to Prince Manor was to get the scientific instruments that were in the manor. Although genetic technology is not yet very mature, with the blessing of magic, it is not difficult to bring those extinct potion plants back to life!
Remus has just confirmed his relationship with Siris, and it is the time when he is reluctant. But as Lily had said, he had to go home and talk about what he was going to do for the rest of the holidays, and he wasn't going to visit Potter Manor anytime soon.
For the past dozen years, his parents have been heartbroken by their monthly transformations, and it is almost impossible to see a smile. It wasn't until Severus's wolf venom modification potion last year that his parents were finally freed.
They were not yet fifty years old, but most of their hair had been dyed silver from more than a decade of melancholy and the hardships of life. Although he is also reluctant to Ciris, as a son, he has the obligation to accept the knees of his parents. Not to let them worry about themselves, but to bring them the family happiness they deserve.
Severus kindly offered Remus a portion of a nurturing potion that would nourish his parents and his parents' aging bodies. According to Gail, if they are lucky, the Lupins may be able to get a second son or a daughter! He had to keep them on time to take potions - perhaps the Lupins would have declined the potions offered by Severus, who had already helped their children a lot, out of gratitude or unwillingness to trouble them.
In the end, the friends agreed before they parted ways at the station, and Remus would visit Potter Manor in about ten days. Gale and Severus' visit will be five days later.
Prince Manor.
"Gail, what are you doing?" As soon as he returned to the estate, Gail began to do something in front of the production station, and even put aside the multi-function watch that had not yet been tested for the time being.
"We have any doors, and we can come back from Potter Manor, but I don't think it's polite." After drawing the symbols on the last circle, Gail said, "Remember the magic tent I really wanted?" ”
Severus, of course, remembered that Gale was eager to take the house with him.
"When I was helping the warehouse to make portable improvements, I had a little bit of an understanding of the superposition of space. I'm going to make the house at 19 Spider Tail Lane the same portable. Gail looked up, eyes shining at Severus.
It is said that men are serious
