Chapter 541: Letters
The battle in front of St. Mungo's Hospital started off unexpectedly, but ended quickly.
After all, London is the capital of the United Kingdom, and it is the best place, if there is a big movement, the opposition parties and the media are bombarded in turn or a small matter, in case the London stock market is affected by a little bit of a fall, then I don't know how many pounds will evaporate in an instant, which will be the life of politicians.
Therefore, the British government immediately mobilized a large number of military and police forces to participate in this sudden law and order war on the pretext of arresting terrorists.
When Zhang Xu escaped from the sky, he transformed into Leonardo Zhang again in order not to provoke Voldemort again, and then came to St. Mungo's Hospital.
At this time, the halls of St. Mungo's Hospital were empty, and patients and their families had either been evacuated or had already been evacuated.
When Zhang Xu came to the door, the battle was in the final stage of attacking.
The Death Eaters were surrounded by the Aurors and the arriving reinforcements, and they were blocked in the streets that were not very wide, and under the command of the old horse, they were resisting attacks from both sides while contemplating how to retreat.
The Aurors and the government forces intensified their attacks, hoping that it would be best to end the battle before Voldemort returned.
While the battle was tight ahead, the rear of Hogwarts was eating tightly.
It's lunchtime, and the sudden departure of professors in the middle of class has become the focus of discussion at the students' dinner tables, a rare occurrence in the millennial history of Hogwarts.
Harry, while dealing with the grilled fish on his plate, was thinking about how to organize and arrange for the unattended seniors to patrol the castle in the afternoon.
Just then, an owl fell into his saucer.
After taking the letter from the feet of the tomato juice-covered owl, Harry lost his appetite and would rather go back to his dorm room and nibble on cookies than touch the owl's soiled gift again.
"Whose letter came?" Ginny poked Harry, who had been stunned for two minutes, with her finger poked Harry, who had not moved for two minutes, for fear that the letter would carry some curse.
"Dudley!" Harry was surprised, "Dudley would write to me!" ”
Harry was indeed taken aback by receiving Dudley's letter, and since he had been separated from the Dursleys that day, he had not heard anything about the Dursleys, except that they had left England.
Ginny, who knew something about the Dursleys, was also stunned for a moment, she knew what the attitude of her future in-laws' relatives towards her boyfriend was, especially this future eldest cousin, who had bullied his cousin since he was a child. Now the eldest cousin actually writes to me, could it be that the sun is going to rise from the south?
Harry figured that the professors would not be able to return for a while, so he simply went back to the dormitory to see what Dudley had written in the letter.
Harry returned to his room, sitting on the bed without taking off his shoes, and the cat he had brought back from 1981, named "The Seeker", sprang out from under the bed and jumped onto his lap when he saw his owner return. He tickled the Seeker the way someone had taught him, causing him to fall asleep comfortably, then opened the envelope.
The letter paper used for letters was not the parchment commonly used by wizards, but the letter paper used by Muggles to write credits.
"Dear Harry:"
Harry shuddered at the beginning, and Harry had an image in his mind of a fat man like a baby elephant affectionately saying to him, "Dear Harry. ”
Shaking his head to shake the horrible image away, Harry noticed that there were some indentations in the "dear" area on the letterhead, which seemed to be caused by the pen scribbling in the same place on the previous paper.
"They said we could write to you, so I wrote you this letter.
After we left Privet Road that day, we flew with them to Australia and now live in a house on the outskirts of Sydney. ”
In the letter, Dudley then described in detail the location and surroundings of the place where they now lived, and even focused on the color of the roof.
"I think he wanted me to read these things letter by letter to the owl who sent the letter when I replied." Harry said to the cat on his lap after reading this paragraph, only to see the Seeker snoring and falling asleep ignoring him.
Harry ignored the cat that had been sleeping all day, and continued to read the letter.
"Now my father has a new job here, and I can see that he is quite satisfied with his new job. My mother often visited neighbors' homes and sometimes invited neighbors to her home. I continued my education at a nearby secondary school and also joined the school's boxing club. ”
Looking at Dudley's daily life trivia, Harry didn't know what kind of expression to use to face it.
His life at the Dursleys for more than a decade was destined to be unpleasant, and now it seemed that he would be happier if he left their family.
Then he thought of Aunt Petunia 29 years ago, and he could see how envious and yearning she was for her mother and her magical talents. However, her aunt, who longed to enter the magical world like her sister, ultimately failed. At that time, Harry had checked his aunt's body in the name of playing games, but unfortunately the result of the examination was that she was a pure Muggle, not a Squib. Disappointment in the wizarding world, disappointment in oneself, eventually led to the distortion of my aunt's concept of the wizarding world.
Harry sighed, understanding is one thing, forgiveness is another, some scars can only be repaired by long years, maybe before they can be mended, one of them has already passed away.
When Harry had finished reading the first page of trivia, the second page made him jump, and the cat that was sleeping soundly on his lap was flipped to the ground.
"Harry, I'll tell you one thing, I didn't mention it to my father and mother, and I think if I had mentioned it to them, they would have sent me out into the wild to be with the kangaroos.
I think I'm in love, she's a girl from our neighbor's house. I saw her for the first time that day when she and her mother were invited by my mother to our house, and I knew I was in love.
That afternoon, while we were drinking tea in our room, I suddenly heard movement in the fence behind the house, so I went out to have a look. I found a kangaroo jumping into the yard, so I went up and beat it away, but I also got a punch to the forehead and bled a little.
Then she came and told me to close my eyes, and then I felt the hot wound become cold, and then the blood on my wound and face disappeared. At this time, I opened my eyes and found that she was busy putting away the stick in her hand.
She's a person of incredible power like you!
She was startled by the sudden opening of my eyes and was busy explaining to me.
I said to her, 'It's okay, I have a cousin named Harry Potter who uses magic like you, and I was once enchanted and grew a tail for a day.' ’
As a result, she was frightened even more.
Harry, I didn't expect you to be so famous, even your name fluttering in the sky over Australia. ”
What follows is a full page of compliments, and it makes Harry want to hit someone.
On page three, Darley wrote: "Harry, I have heard that you are very popular with girls at school, so I beg you to help me, for our grandmother's sake, I will make amends to you for my bullying in the past, please teach me how to make her fall in love with me." She had gone to school in the United States, and I wanted to write to him, but I didn't know what to write. ”
After reading Dudley's request in the letter, Harry's heart burst into the words, "I knew this was the case, why bother in the first place."
Just as Harry was struggling with how to reply to Dudley's letter, an exhausted owl flew into Zhang Xu's dormitory.
The owl had a small package strapped to its leg, and the sender was Rove Scamander of the American School of Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Inside the package were two brand new letters, as well as several letters that looked to be many years old.
