Chapter 227: Harry's Birthday Present

The Dursleys were completely over, but it had to be said that even though Harry now had his own home, he was still completely alone, he had no friends outside of the wizarding world, outside of Hogwarts. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When he was alone at home, with Barbara's care, he didn't even have to go out, and he didn't really want to go out.

The homework of the summer vacation was easily completed in such a state of hard work and madness. Even the most troublesome assignment Professor Snape had left behind, a thorough explanation of the shrinking potion, he had done it perfectly.

Of course, he never expected to get a high grade in Snape's classes and assignments.

But as long as he is sincere in completing his homework, as an honor student, the quality of his homework will completely surpass the level of others. At this time, Snape at least couldn't fail him, no matter how much he hated and hated Harry, the house was not his own.

Harry tilted his chair half-up, leaned back in his chair and looked out the window, it was almost twelve o'clock, and after twelve he would be thirteen.

Unlike previous years, Harry had begun to look forward to birthdays, which he had never looked forward to for the previous eleven years. But now he was looking forward to it, and he was looking forward to what George would give him for his birthday. Ever since George called him on his first day of vacation, he had been looking forward to George's gift.

It's embarrassing, but that's exactly what it is, and last year, George gave him a home and the perfect birthday. This year he knew there wouldn't be a better birthday, but he was still looking forward to George's gift.

And Ron and Hermione, who will also bring him gifts, and maybe Ginny.

The silver-white moonlight poured down, and the faint light veil was dreamy and hazy. In the moonlight, a strange, distorted black shadow came this way, getting closer and bigger.

Harry opened the window and stepped out onto the balcony, staring at the shadows and waiting for them.

The strange black shadow approached, and it was three owls that flew towards Harry and landed on the balcony.

The snow-white, beautiful owl was his pet Hedwig, who was carrying a package and was looking at Harry triumphantly.

Harry unwrapped it and touched it lightly on its head, Hedwig rubbed Harry's hand affectionately, pecked Harry lightly with her beak, and then stood aside contentedly.

The other gray owl is owned by Weasley, also known as Errol, but not the original Errol. It is a new, robust owl.

It replaces the old Weasley owl, which was too old to deliver a letter and could die halfway through if he wasn't careful. The Weasleys have allowed it to retire with peace of mind and retire at home.

Harry took the package from Errol and placed it in Hedwig's cage, adding new food to it and feeding it some water.

Another tawny owl, Harry didn't recognize, but soon he knew. Not only did it carry a package, but it also carried a letter from Hogwarts.

Harry removed the package and letter from the owl, and the owl immediately shook its feathers solemnly, spread its wings, and flew into the endless night sky. It's busy going back to its life, and it has a new job.

Harry sat back on the bed, tossed the package on the bed, and happily unwrapped his birthday present. Tearing open the brown paper and gold paper package, the Weasleys send him a birthday card. It was the first time Harry had received a birthday card, and of course it was the first time he had received a birthday present.

Harry quickly opened the envelope, which contained a letter and a newspaper clipping.

Newspaper clippings were cut from the Daily Prophet, the newspaper of the wizarding world, and in black and white photographs, figures were still moving. Harry took the clipping, smoothed it out, and read the message.

"The staff of the Ministry of Magic has received the Galleon Award, the big annual gold of the year from the Daily Prophet. Arthur Weasley, director of the Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Objects at the Ministry of Magic, was fortunate enough to receive the Daily Prophet's annual award. ”

Mr. Weasley happily told this reporter, "We will use this money for summer tours to Egypt, my eldest son Bill works in Egypt, he works on spell cracking at Gringotts Magic Bank, we haven't seen him in a long time." ”

Mr. Weasley's family will spend a month in Egypt. They have five children attending Hogwarts and will be back before school starts.

Harry looked at the photo of the event, and all nine of the Weasleys were standing in front of the pyramid, waving excitedly at him. Harry was genuinely happy for them, and the Weasleys in the photo were happy and happy.

Ever since George invested in Mr. Weasley, the Weasleys have had good fortune. This time they also won a big prize, and the family had not had the opportunity to see Bill for a long time, and it would take a lot of money to travel to and from Egypt.

Harry opened Ron's letter and read it.

Happy birthday, dear Harry, forgive me for not writing to you lately and not calling you. Our family went to Egypt and Bill showed us around all the pyramids, which you should also visit if you have the chance. You can't guess how many spells these ancient Egyptian wizards put on the pyramids.

Mom wouldn't let Bill take us to the last pyramid, which she felt was dangerous. There had been Muggles who tried to force their way into that pyramid, and they had grown extra heads and limbs that had become strange skeletons.

I really didn't expect my dad to win the Grand Prix from the Daily Prophet, otherwise, even if they had money, they would always be willing to save money.

We'll be back a week before school starts, we'll go to London to buy textbooks and new paraphernalia, hopefully see you in London, now you're home alone, it's definitely boring, you can go to London early.

By the way, Percy is the president of the boys' student council, he is very happy, and his parents are proud of him. Percy, a model student, has risen in the family again, and I hope he won't be harsh on us because of this.

Harry looked back at the photo clipping, which showed Percy looking triumphant and pretentious. On his neatly combed head, he wears a Turkish hat. Harry could see at a glance that the badge of the male leader was pinned to the hat, and the silver badge glittered in the sunlight.

Harry then proceeded to open the present, and Ron gave Harry a small spinning top, and under the top was a note that Ron had left for him: Harry, this is a pocket speculum. When there are untrustworthy people around, it glows and spins.
