Crazy, Peter felt that either the world was crazy or he was crazy.
How could that guy named Arnie Scamander be so kind?
Appearance defects have a great impact on people. Living with contempt and malicious ridicule since childhood, most people will become cowardly and have low self-esteem, while a small number of people will become extreme and crazy.
Only a handful of people can cultivate a strong heart. As long as such people are given the opportunity, they will achieve impressive achievements.
Obviously, Peter is not a very small minority, not a small minority, or even a majority.
He is a combination of the three, and it cannot be said that he is inhumane. However, in Peter's life, when rationality prevails, he only considers himself.
Because during his childhood, no one except his mother cared about him and loved him. As for admiration, appreciation, respect, and kindness, no one ever paid him any attention.
Until his 11th birthday, an owl flew into his window, and a short, fat little wizard appeared in the Great Hall of Hogwarts.
Sirius Black, James Potter, Remus Lupin, the first time he knew what friends were, those were Peter's happiest days.
Maybe Peter once stood on the tower and silently told himself that he had no choice before, but now he wants to be a good person.
Unfortunately, what determines destiny is often not sharing in favorable times, but perseverance in adversity.
If he had not met Voldemort, he might have been full of smiles in his subsequent life.
But there are no ifs in reality. Life requires choices. Ultimately, it is up to you to decide whether to choose left or right, and you must bear all the luck and misfortune yourself.
Wrong decisions will harm others and yourself, and correct decisions may not harm yourself and others.
I blame the unfairness of the world, blame the indifference of all sentient beings, and hate myself for being incompetent, but in this damn war, what use are these?
People, regardless of whether they are wizards or Muggles, are just dolls of fate.
All fortunes are determined by heaven and cannot be controlled by humans.
This is what Peter thinks, the self-comfort of a timid loser.
As long as he firmly believes in the above, he can blame all his mistakes on fate with peace of mind.
Therefore, Peter admitted the evil in his heart, but he was not ashamed of it. He was just forced to have no choice!
In fact, this short, fat man with poor appearance is not completely without conscience. When facing those kind and willing people, he thinks he is respectful on the surface, but full of disdain and ridicule in his heart. But in fact, deeper in his heart
It will also breed a trace of envy and admiration that you are not even aware of.
When he heard Aini standing outside the door with concern and greetings, he even changed his mind for a moment - if it was not Voldemort who appeared in front of him that year, but someone like Aini...
But then the strange fluorescence shone through the door, and all the words floating in Peter's heart were replaced by swear words.
"Professor Scamander, thank you for your kindness, but I just want to be alone for a while."
"Okay, as you wish, sir. Remember to call me when you need help. Goodbye."
After gathering another handful of black wool, Aini left the door of Peter's office with satisfaction. But surprisingly, there were a few small pieces of white wool mixed in, which made him get to know Peter better. p>
The human heart is labeled complex, not only because of the complicated thoughts that fill it, but also because even it itself cannot fully understand the thoughts inside.
Even without Peter's refusal, Ani had no time to continue "playing" with him. Just when the power of purification was transmitted, a silver-white bird landed on his shoulder.

No. 12, Bourton Street, Little Whinging, London.
Vernon nervously glanced out the window. The streets were empty, with no vehicles, no pedestrians, and no uninvited guests.
The pendulum swings hard, hoping that the two lazy hands can move accurately to where they should go.
Seven fifty-six is the time. For this reason, the pendulum keeps "clicking", as if to say: "Look, that's all my credit."
This is the time that belongs to the housewife. Only Petunia in the family is still busy in the kitchen. At the same time, the symphony of pots and pans can be heard, as well as the fierce exchange of fire in the activity room.
"Two little brats."
Listening to the children's unexplained shouts, Vernon spat out of habit, and his nearly broken back suddenly relaxed.
Smelling the scent of a happy family, Vernon touched his waist, which had lost at least three feet, and convinced himself that the visitor might not be so scary after a while.
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
Vernon opened the door and saw a warm smiling face.
Maybe it's because of the universal language of smile, maybe it's the other person's young face, or maybe it's Aini's regular dress, which makes the visitor look completely different from the crazy wizard in Vernon's impression.
In short, Vernon suddenly became less nervous.
Although he had confirmed before that no one was walking through the street, so what? It is normal for wizards to have some strange methods.
Since the ice-breaking relationship with Harry, the wizard's various creations have truly improved the lives of the Dursley family. After receiving the benefits, they no longer resist magic.
How many of the things people hate are because they can’t get them? No one can tell.
"Professor Scamander?"
Vernon looked at the young man in front of him. He seemed to have an indescribable bearing on him, which made his tone seem to be filled with respect.
"Hello, Mr. Dursley. My name is Aeneas Scamander. I'm sorry for disturbing you."
Ani stretched out his right hand and shook Vernon's hand, and his decent etiquette made Vernon's impression of him even better.
When a smile appeared on his face, Mr. Dursley was shocked to realize that he had shown a friendly attitude to a strange wizard when they first met.
It’s incredible!
What's even more incredible is that Vernon knew that he would soon take the initiative to ask this "weird person" from past memories to enter his family.
If someone had told him all this two years ago, he would have thought that either the other person was crazy or he was crazy.
Now he is not crazy, but he has indeed changed, and Vernon believes that this change will make him have a better life.
Dali's strong body, Penny's disappearing crow's feet, and his own belly that has returned to the world of fatness all endorse his transformation.
Facts have proven that many barriers in the world, including the inherent prejudices of people, are vulnerable to real benefits.
"It's our honor to have you here, please come in, Professor Scamander."
Vernon took a step back and gave way to the door, letting the other person's eyes focus on the place behind him that he had been protecting, and the next moment this strange wizard would enter his home.
He hopes that this will not be a wrong decision. He hopes that his family can live a good life. He hopes that the family relationship will last forever and become more mellow. He hopes...
In fact, Mr. Dursley doesn't trust Ernie, and he didn't trust Harry before, but now he is willing to trust the child he raised since childhood, and he is also willing to tentatively get in touch with the fears and longings he once had.
