Chapter 59 Tell her what she can say

 An old but clean suit, a suitcase that is almost worn out, a patient's face that is lifeless, graying light brown hair, and green eyes that reveal a hint of nervousness. Charles can confirm that the person standing in front of the door is Lyme.

Sir Lupin.

"Dumbledore invited you here?" Charles asked.

Lupine immediately replied: "Yes, he asked me to come to Mr. Charles Smith."

Charles said: "I am Charles, come in quickly, Professor Dumbledore is busy now."

"I'll put your suitcase in the living room for you."

The ban on underage wizards using magic at home is actually aimed at young wizards of Muggle origin, and it only started after they went to Hogwarts.

Fred and George had broken the rules countless times. Hermione tried a few simple spells before going to school, but nothing happened.

Last night, the Ministry of Magic discovered that someone was using magic at No. 3 Privet Drive. Officials from the Ministry of Magic came immediately. They saw Dumbledore washing dishes with the Elder Wand after dinner, and then ignored him.<

/p>

So now Charles helps Lupine fly the suitcase to the living room, and nothing happens.

Then Charles took Lupine to the study on the second floor to watch the play. At this time, Penny was like an angry lion, holding the computer socket in her hand, confronting Dumbledore.

Because the Ministry of Magic used magic to detect whether anyone was using magic at home, Jack tried to use it as little as possible, so he decided to hire someone to take care of the house after the half-prepared dinner in the kitchen smelled last time due to his addiction to games.

With Jack's attitude of not treating pounds as money, Penny won over most of the housewives in Little Whinging to get the job.

Dumbledore was a bit avoiding Petunia when he first came to play, but he felt relieved when he found that she no longer mentioned Lily.

However, Petunia had been observing him. When she came over to clean up this morning, she took advantage of Dumbledore's unscheduled play all night and suddenly unplugged the mouse and keyboard, and then threatened him with unplugging the plug to tell him the details of Lily's death.
But with Dumbledore as a person, he would return to playing and return to business, so this would not be confused.

"I'm sorry, Petunia." Dumbledore's voice was low, "I really can't say."

After saying that, he pressed the shutdown button himself.

Charles discovered that it turned out that Petunia could also make the same expressions and expressions as Snape, but she was facing Dumbledore.

Regarding Dumbledore's difficulties, Charles is somewhat understandable. This involves Snape, whose identity is a bit sensitive.

Charles had no doubt that if Petunia knew that Snape overheard the prophecy and caused Lily to be killed, she would dare to carry the gas tank to Spider End Alley.

At this time, Jack came out to smooth things over: "Everyone, calm down, Penny. How about we go downstairs and have a cup of tea first?"

"Charles, why don't you go down and make tea."

So Charles became the tea server again, boiling water to make tea in the kitchen, and taking Penny into consideration, he took it to the living room.

Only Lupine and Petunia were in the living room. Lupine mentioned Lily after learning the identity of the other party, and now Petunia asked Lily about her time at Hogwarts.

Two old men with hair as white as the snow on the roadside went out for a walk. Jack was saying to Dumbledore: "Albus, we are all people with gray hair. In Eastern terms, we have eaten

There is more salt than the bread young people have ever eaten.”

"You should know how painful it is to lose a loved one, and this pain will accompany people throughout their lives."

Dumbledore listened quietly on the sidelines, without looking impatient or wanting to refute.

Although Dumbledore and McGonagall have a lot to say, some matters involving the wizarding world, such as the past between him and Grindelwald, can only be talked to someone who knows nothing about the wizarding world, otherwise it will be leaked.

Going out will cause an uproar.

In Dumbledore's eyes, Jack seemed upright, not so old-fashioned, occasionally had a little humor, was willing to play with himself, and was experienced. The most important thing was that Jack, who knew nothing about the magical world, was a friend with whom he could confide his concerns.

.

Jack was not familiar with Grindelwald. He was not very interested in people who were ambitious and tried to rule the world. When he was in the United States, he secretly watched him for a while, and then went to the Amazon rainforest to learn more about him.

It's from Charles' "memory".

So when he listened to Dumbledore's concerns, he was very serious and could not deal with it hypocritically, which made Lao Deng feel that this person was capable and treated him as a friend.

So here comes a scene that surprises people who know Dumbledore well. The most powerful wizard in the world recognized by wizards is quietly listening to a "Muggle" preaching.

Dumbledore thought of his sister, sighed slightly, and said, "You are right, I can understand how Petunia feels."

Jack said to him: "I guess there is something behind the death of Penny's sister that still needs to be kept secret. I can understand this. We all have our own secrets, and I also have secrets that I cannot tell anyone, let alone you.

Fight against terrorist groups like the IRA."

"I think secrets are divided into levels. The key part is that you can't tell even if you are beaten to death, but you can tell the family members of the victim after some things are blurred."

"Of course, this is just my suggestion, it's up to you to decide what to do."

After hearing this, Dumbledore did not deny it, but just thought about it deeply.

When they returned to No. 3 Privet Drive, Charles was drinking tea to calm down.

Lupine talked about many things about Lily, including the fact that the Potters later made Sirius Black the godfather of Harry Potter, which led to the introduction of their foursome of deer, dog, wolf and rat.

And because Petunia mentioned the Snape she knew, Lupine talked about some things between Snape and Lily.

Lupine downplayed the conflict between Lily and Snape, saying only that they were quarreling, just like many adolescent men and women who quarreled over trivial matters.

Charles breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and drank a cup of tea to calm down.

He was very worried that if Lupine told clearly how Snape used bad names to hurt Lily, Petunia would be able to drive a full tanker to the house in her current condition.

At this time, Jack and Dumbledore came back, and everyone sat down in the living room. Charles served tea to others and refilled cups to others.

Dumbledore drank half a cup of tea, put down the cup and began to introduce to Petunia the stranger in the living room who still didn't understand the situation: "Penny, this is Remus Lupin, he and Lily are in the same college.

classmates."

Penny said coldly to Lao Deng: "I have just met Mr. Luping."

Dumbledore continued: "Although the wizarding world seems peaceful and peaceful, the murderer of Lily is like a dark cloud floating in the sky and has not dispersed."
