At this time, Harry was happily letting three owls enter his room and received several packages and letters.
First, it was the Daily Prophet that Ron sent, showing off a little bit about their family's 700 Galleons grand prize and their happy trip to Egypt, and then the birthday gift from him - a pocket looking glass.
Hermione's gift was brought back by the snow-white Hedwig. It was the broomstick care kit that Harry loved dearly. Harry was quite satisfied with this gift.
However, next came the textbook for the Magical Creatures Care course for the next semester that Hagrid sent - the Monster Book of Monsters. As Hagrid's assistant, Bai Lin also made a little effort and suggested that Hagrid change to a "quieter" one.
textbook, but Hagrid was quite stubborn about it.
Watching Harry having a "hand-to-hand" fight with the Monster Book and finally subduing it, Bai Lin couldn't help but smile. He envied Harry for having such a wonderful and magical childhood, but Bai Lin loved his parents who were still in his hometown.
If he was asked to trade his parents' lives for Harry's, he would definitely refuse. Thinking of this, Bai Lin felt very sympathetic to Harry.
Harry was worried about waking up his aunt's family, but his cousin's snoring was still loud and could be heard faintly throughout the house, and his aunt and his wife were still lying on the balcony and would not wake up until dawn.
Harry's last letter was the notice for the start of the new semester. It was supposed to be written by Professor McGonagall, but obviously how could the vice-principal have time to write to all the students in the school, so the librarian Mrs. Pince served as a temporary assistant.
He took over the writing work of the school opening notices for Gryffindor and Hufflepuff.
Dear Mr. Porter:
Please note that the new semester starts on September 1st, and the Hogwarts Express will depart from Platform 9 and 3/4 of King's Cross Station at 11 o'clock.
Third year students are permitted to travel to Hogsmeade on certain weekends. Please give the attached permission form to your parent or guardian to sign.
Enclosed is the book list for next semester.
In addition, there will be many new professors and assistant professors teaching next semester. Professor Hagrid, who will be teaching the Care of Magical Creatures class, has recommended his assistant professor, Mr. Kelly White, who will visit your residence in the near future.
Please don't be rude.
Yours faithfully
Vice-President Professor McGonagall
Obviously, Mrs. Pingsi helped Bai Lin and added some private goods inside, which reduced some trouble for Bai Lin's visit.
But Harry was frightened, because his aunt's family hated anything related to wizards, including wizards themselves. The last time Hagrid came over, it almost caused a stir and almost ruined his enrollment.
He didn't know what kind of communication the new teacher - the name Kelly White sounded quite serious - would have with Uncle Vernon, and whether he would be unable to attend Hogwarts next semester.
The young mind was so frightened all night that it even forgot to ask Uncle Vernon or Aunt Petunia to sign the Hogsmeade permission form.
The next morning, Harry went downstairs for breakfast, rubbing the dark circles under his eyes. He saw the Dursleys gathered around the new TV in the kitchen to watch the news about the fugitive criminal Black. The couple, who also had dark circles under their eyes, also watched the news on the TV.
The news anchor on the TV screen was yelling curses, looking like he was jealous of his hatred.
Uncle Vernon worked as a director of the Granning Company (Harry and Bai Lin both wondered how someone as annoying as him got the position of director). He prided himself on being a successful man and treated everyone he considered low-class citizens.
Full of hatred and disdain, including Harry's family, how stupid, weird, and despicable people must be to be unwilling to learn something practical like an excavator (Gruning is a company that produces drills and excavators)
Skills, and being a wizard sounds like a street clown in the eighteenth century.
To a certain extent, Uncle Vernon, Voldemort, and Grindelwald are all the same kind of people, but the Dark Lords discriminate against Muggle blood and wish that all Muggles would die; Vernon, on the other hand, discriminates against wizard blood and wishes that all wizards would die.
Death light...
After scolding Black, whom he had never met, Uncle Vernon announced that Aunt Maggie was about to visit. This news shocked Harry again, even more than he should have, because if the teacher who came to visit his home happened to meet
Aunt Maggie, Harry just didn't know how to imagine it, that scene was hell.
Aunt Maggie is Uncle Vernon's sister. Every visit brings a horrible memory to Harry. She is even more venomous than Uncle Vernon. She can find the most vicious words in the world and use them to curse Harry at all times -
—This one actually has nothing to do with her, and she doesn’t even have a boy.
Uncle Vernon repeatedly warned Harry, but the main point was to remind him that he attended the "St. Bruce Security Center School for Juvenile Delinquents". Bai Lin was also very confused about this. Could it be that he had a child in his family who was a juvenile delinquent?
Can it make Vernon more respectable in front of Aunt Maggie and the rest of society?
Harry looked listless and agreed dejectedly. Seeing Harry's listless look, Uncle Vernon kicked Harry mercilessly in the calf, causing him to almost fall to the ground.
Aunt Petunia quickly grabbed Uncle Vernon to prevent him from beating Harry any further. Although he had always been violent since childhood, Harry was different now. If he really got angry, what would Harry do?
The trick threatens to tear down their house.
But no one knew that in the shadow outside the window, Bai Lin was using the most advanced camera of the 1990s to film Uncle Vernon's every move.
After repeating the name of the school for juvenile delinquents three times, Uncle Vernon was finally satisfied and pushed Harry staggering out of the door.
Harry returned to the room like a zombie and threw himself on the bed. He couldn't stop crying for a long time. But in the end, he cheered up and wrote a text message to Ron, entrusting Hedwig to him.
Not long after, there was the crunching sound of gravel being crushed by wheels outside, and Aunt Petunia screamed towards Harry's room, angrily driving him out to greet their guests.
Aunt Maggie looked exactly like Uncle Vernon, tall and stocky, with a purple face and even a small beard. She took a huge box from Vernon's car, and a bad guy jumped out of the back seat of the car.
The old bulldog with a bad temper was bent over and held in her arms.
Aunt Maggie shoved the box on Harry's stomach, then hugged Harry's cousin Fat Dudley and kissed her fiercely. From a distance, Bai Lin felt a little disgusted. How could such a fat and greasy boy get off?
He had to stop talking. Dudley proudly showed Harry the brand new twenty pounds that Maggie had thrust into his hand.
