At ten o'clock, dinner was already over. The Weasleys have already gone back through Floo Powder. Ivey was also ready to send Hermione and Harry back, but Betty was still with him.

Send Hermione home first, this time to meet her parents. Hermione's family dragged them inside for tea, and her mother kept thanking the three of them. She said that Hermione had never had many friends, and that she was grateful that they could take care of her at Hogwarts.

Harry was embarrassed to hear this. Ivy is also funny, and it is still debatable who takes care of whom, after all, "Hermione and her two useless men" is not an empty phrase.

As for Uncle Harry's family, it's worse. Not to mention welcoming guests - Ivy saw Harry walk in with a large bag of snacks and be snatched by Dudley. Looks like we'll have to get some more roundbread for him.

On the way back

"Don't you help?" Even Betty, who didn't care about anything else, was upset about Harry

"It's someone else's family matter," Ivy said lightly, "besides—what do you want me to do?" Either way, it was his last relative. Can I really beat them up? And Harry wasn't incapable of resisting. Since he acquiesced to this status quo, it showed that he himself did not want to hurt Dursley. ”

"Harry doesn't hate them?" Betty wasn't convinced

"Why hate! It may have been a lot of suffering. But one way or another—it was the Dursleys who raised him. To put it bluntly, the reason why people are resentful is that they have such a layer of kinship. But there is nothing to raise! In my opinion, the Dursleys have nothing to be sorry for Harry. The person they're sorry for is just Harry's mother. ”

At the end of the day - Harry was being mistreated, and it would be more accurate to say injustice. The Dursleys did not give him the treatment his family deserved.

"So that's it?"

"Don't overcomplicate it. Harry's mind is very naïve, but his life experience is abundant. He knew how to deal with his relationship with Dursley. ”

————

While Ivey was chatting, Harry was in trouble again.

Harry returned and pushed the door open when he found Dudley waiting in the doorway.

Surely not to welcome himself, Harry thought to himself.

"This is a snack? I'll hold it for you! Dudley snatched the bag

"That's mine - give it back to me!" Harry stepped forward to fight

"Shhhh

"Now—give me back the snack at once! If you don't want to be a pig again. Harry said coldly, gesturing decently.

"You!" Dudley cowered into a corner. Hagrid's magic had scared the hell out of him last time. He tightened the bag in his hand, as if food would give him courage.

"One and a half" Dudley said timidly

Most of the cakes that Ivy gave him during the day went into his stomach, and it was difficult for him to give up this delicacy when he tasted the sweetness.

"It's all mine, don't think about any of it," Harry stepped forward to retrieve the bag

"What are you yelling about—" Vernon walked out. He shouted in a low voice

Dudley immediately ducked behind Vernon

"He robbed me of something," Harry glared at him

"Your stuff? Hum! Vernon turned around and rummaged through the bag, "Snacks?" Just right! After chatting for so long, the Masons were hungry too. Vernon took the bag and was about to go back to the house. Dudley looked at him smugly.

"If you don't give it back to me, I'll use magic to drive the Masons away! Ragu pulls Balaton—" Harry pretended to recite the incantation

"Stop! What are you going to do—" Vernon shouted in horror

"Give it back! Fast! ”

"Okay, good—don't read it yet!" Vernon can't help it, the Masons are his gods now.

Vernon took a couple of cakes out of the bag, handed one to Dudley, and tossed the rest to Harry. Harry didn't say anything, took the bag and went upstairs.

"Mr. Mason, for today's meeting, we are looking for a snack that someone has prepared. You taste it, it doesn't suit your appetite. ”

It was the last sound he heard before going upstairs

in the room

Harry closed the door and turned on the light. As soon as he turned around—he almost screamed. He covered his mouth violently and looked at the monster on the bed. It has large bat-like ears, an elongated nose, and a pair of prominent green eyes the size of a tennis ball.

The monster jumped out of bed and bowed deeply to him. Harry noticed that it was wearing an old pillowcase with several holes in its arms and legs.

"Hello, Harry Potter" the monster was the first to greet him, looking very excited.

"Uh-hello-you're?" Harry's expression was unnatural

"Harry Potter!" It screamed, "Dobby has always wanted to see you, great Harry Potter!" ”

"Thank you," Harry walked over to the desk and sat down, "Dobby?" What's your name? ”

"Yes, sir. Dobby, the house-elf"

"House-elves?" Harry had never heard of that word

"We are the servants of the sorcerer"

"Then what are you doing here?"

"Dobby is here to tell you, uh- it's hard to say, Dobby doesn't know where to start." Dobby is enthusiastic but a little timid

"Let's do it first, take your time," Harry said politely

"Sit-sit!" Dobby was shocked and immediately whimpered "No wizard has ever made Dobby sit down - like an equal human being~"

"Alright, alright, be quiet. You sit down first and talk about something slowly. ”

"Thank you. Dobby wanted to say that Harry Potter couldn't go back to Hogwarts. ”

"What!" Harry's voice was louder than Dobby's, "I have to go back!" I don't belong here. I belong to your world—to Hogwarts. ”

"No, no, no, no - Harry Potter must stay in a safe place. If Harry Potter were to return to Hogwarts, his life would be in danger. ”

"Why?" Harry's face was ugly

"There's a conspiracy to see the scariest thing happen at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry this year."

"What horrible thing? Can you say that? ”

"I can't." Dobby spread his hands, "Harry Potter if he asks again, Bobbi will hammer himself." ”

"Then I don't ask. Thank you for reminding me, you can go back" Harry lost interest

"Harry Potter has to promise not to go to Hogwarts," Dobby pleaded nervously

"Yes" Harry could see that Dobby was definitely in trouble, so he simply calmed him down first.

"Really?" Dobby's eyes widened, and his eyeballs were about to fall out.

"Hmm"

"Really!"

"Hmm"

"Great! Dobby saved the life of the great Harry Potter," Dobby had a look of great satisfaction on his face. It made Harry feel a little guilty

Then Dobby snapped his fingers, and several envelopes appeared in his hands

"I was afraid that Harry Potter wouldn't listen to Dobby, and Dobby stopped a few letters to Harry Potter."

"You stopped it! No wonder—" Harry snapped into it. They had also discussed it at Ive's house, and the letters sent to him by Ron and Hermione had disappeared on the road.

"I'm wondering, why did Ron and Hermione bring me letters through Ivey," Harry muttered to himself, "By the way, why didn't you stop you from bringing me letters from Round Cake?" ”

At the mention of round cakes, Dobby was a little timid, "The messenger of Mr. Shafiq's house, Dobby doesn't dare to stop it, otherwise the master won't be able to save Dobby." ”

Harry was speechless, this guy is really a bully and a hard guy.
