HP solves the mystery

In the summer of 1983, the villa at No. 4 Privet Drive welcomed an uninvited guest.

After the visitor explained the reason, Petunia put away the scalpel hidden behind her back, Vernon put down the troll in his hand, and the three of them could finally sit on the sofa and chat comfortably.

The background sounds were Dudley's squeaking and Harry's laughter watching TV. Neither of them seemed too noisy, they just looked at each other quietly.

Finally, the man sitting near the door spoke first. His hair was neatly combed and he was wearing a decent suit.

"My name is Remus Lupin. I am a good friend of James and Lily. I think you have seen me at their wedding." Lupine had a gentle look on his face. After seeing Petunia nod, he continued, "I have been at the wedding before. I'm doing business abroad, so I didn't know about them right away... Anyway, I'm sorry that I only came to see Harry now..." He choked up as he spoke, his cheeks filled with tears.

Petunia and the others didn't know what to say, and for a moment Lupin's choking voice echoed in the living room.

Vernon coughed and pushed the paper on the table towards him.

"Thank you, I'm really...sorry..." Lupine took out a tissue and blew his nose. His red eyes and violent chest heaving proved that his heart was not calm.

Harry glanced at the crying strange uncle curiously, then turned around and continued watching TV. He was so embarrassed, he rarely cried.

The tears that Lupine had finally stopped started to fall again when he saw the face that looked exactly like James, especially since he also had a pair of green eyes.

"I really didn't expect...Harry looks so much like his parents..." He said while wiping his tears, not looking like the elite man he was before.

Petunia frowned but hesitated to speak, winked at Vernon who was standing aside, and finally went to heat milk to feed the two children.

Vernon pinched his eyebrows and waited for Lupine to cry for a while before asking.

"Well, Mr. Lupin, why are you here?" He felt that it could not be as simple as just seeing little Harry, and both the Potters had been dead for several years.

"Oh, Mr. Dursley, it's like this. When James and the others were alive, we were best friends." Lupine said sadly, watching little Harry running happily into the kitchen, "If you can, I want to adopt Harry..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Penny walking over.

"No, Harry can only stay with us!" Petunia frowned and threw Dudley to her husband, pointing with her hands on her hips in the direction of the door, "I don't care what your purpose is, get out of my house right now! "Her eyes were filled with sparks of anger. In order to allow her child to grow up healthily, she would not let anyone approach her.

"Calm down, I just said if, I didn't mean to force it." Lu Ping raised his hands above his head and explained hurriedly.

But Penny didn't want to hear what he had to say anymore, so she picked up the phone nearby and threatened.

"If you don't leave, I'll call the police!"

Lupine looked at the agitated Petunia and then at Vernon, who was staring at him closely, and had no choice but to leave first.

When everything calmed down, several people in the room were no longer in a good mood.

Petunia looked at the confused Harry, held back the tears in her eyes, hugged him and kissed him again and again.

Petunia and Lily may have been at odds for many years, but they are still the closest people in the world.

Little Harry didn't understand his aunt's complicated emotions, so he just reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

People were coming and going on the bustling street, and a huge billboard said 'Come to a new place and explore the magical world with me. '

Lupine came to the room he rented in the Broken Ax pub on Charing Cross Street, drinking brandy and reading newspapers from past years.

He really didn't expect that he just received the mission to go to the werewolf gathering place-the deep mountains and old forests, and concentrate on paving roads and building bridges to develop the economy according to the plan. When he came out, everything changed?

Of the four brothers, two are dead and one is in jail, leaving him alone.

Lupine took another drink of brandy and stabbed Sirius in the newspaper with his finger. His eyes were full of regret. If he had known this would happen, he would have rejected the contract.

"Hiccup, Sirius, you are so cruel, you can even kill Peter." Lupine was so drunk that he almost tripped over the carpet when he stood up, "I must ask you to find out, hiccup, James Mu is so kind to you..."

He fell to the ground, still mumbling.

There was no wind at night but there was a lot of fog, and the street lights on the roadside were covered.

"It looks like tomorrow will be a sunny day," Severus said, wiping his hair.

Tom's ears twitched and he looked out the window in confusion. It was so foggy there, how could he tell that it was sunny?

But he didn't dwell too much on it. Young people would always come up with some strange words.

The scenery in central London is the same all year round, and after staying there for a long time you will inevitably yearn for the vast green areas.

Since the basilisk was told to be by Tom's side at all times, it rarely even visits the Forbidden Forest.

No, it looked at the sparrows outside the window and spat out messages, and looked at the young man for a long time with eyes longing for freedom.

"What's wrong, Helbo? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Severus thought that the basilisk's eyes were cramped, and he began to think about what kind of potion could treat it.

The basilisk sighed, straightened the hat on its head with its tail, and straightened up seriously.

[Severus, I want to go to the Forbidden Forest. It’s so boring at home. 】The basilisk was serious for only three seconds, and then it twisted into a twist and lay beside the window.

The young man looked at Tom, who was also looking at him with longing eyes, and hesitated for a rare moment. He was not a kitten now. He would be hurt if he went to the Forbidden Forest like this.

Severus thought back to what he said about preparing things when he had dinner with Zhang Mingyuan, and then thought about the villa in the town, and finally decided to go there to play for a while.

The basilisk grumbled very unwillingly. There wasn't even a TV in that place.

Severus grabbed the basilisk's tail and shook it, then explained with a smile, "I bought the TV a long time ago, and I heard that a reservoir has been opened in the town, and there is a place where you can run wild."

The basilisk felt better after hearing this, and twisted around the young man's arm.

[Hiss, let’s talk first, you have to take care of enough snacks. 】The basilisk discussed the conditions and figured out how many snacks to bring.

Severus placed the basilisk on the sofa and listened helplessly to its babble.

One person and one snake quickly reached a consensus and began to pack their things.

Tom on the other hand was a little surprised. Why didn't he know that there was a villa in the town? If he had known it earlier, he wouldn't have had to live in this small house.

The basilisk gave Maomao a look of pity. You should know that the villas in the town are not as fun as the Forbidden Forest.

"I bought that villa several years ago. You don't know how normal it is." Severus touched Tom's head and said softly, "I haven't been there a few times. After all, it's much more convenient to do things in the city center."

Tom nodded thoughtfully and asked about the specific location of the town.

Severus didn't think much and said it directly.

"Go and pack it up and see what toys you can bring to the town. Maybe you can make some friends." The young man urged. There are many children in the town, and it will be a happy summer.

However, the plan did not change quickly. When they were packing their things, an unexpected person came to the door.

"You mean, you want to reverse the case of Sirius Black? Let me appear in court to accuse him? You know, if it weren't for what he said in school, I wouldn't have stayed in the hospital wing for half a month." Severus He looked playfully at Lupine, who smelled of alcohol and was unshaven, and looked very depressed, but if he were really depressed, he wouldn't be able to afford a two thousand pound watch.

Lupine smiled a little reluctantly. He knew that this was a bit difficult, but if he appeared in front of the jury as a werewolf, the testimony would have no legal effect.

The reason why Sirius was imprisoned was not only the 'Death Eater who betrayed the Potters', but also the crime of using dark magic to kill 13 Muggles in public. I don't know what the case was. .

Lupine saw Severus frowning, his whole body full of rejection for him, and his mouth full of bitterness.

He bribed the guards of Azkaban last week and met Sirius inside, who had been imprisoned for three years. After listening to Sirius's angry roar, they finally talked about the matter calmly.

From the words of the slightly crazy Sirius, he learned that Peter had been temporarily replaced as the Secret Keeper and betrayed James and the others. The 13 Muggles were also killed by Peter.

"Then why didn't you tell the people at the Ministry of Magic? Do you really like Azkaban? Why did you change the secret keeper in the first place?!" Lupine heard his sharp questioning voice. He actually wanted to say why he wasn't allowed to do it. Secret Keeper, but what happened has happened, he could only hold back tears and said, "And they are just missing, not defeated, what does James's sacrifice count?"

"I am Black, Remus. They will not believe that my family are all Death Eaters." Sirius's thin face was pressed against the iron railing, showing his sharp canine teeth and smiling sarcastically.

"And what identity are you asking me about? You disappeared right after graduation. It turned out that you joined the werewolf tribe. The Death Eaters must have given you a lot of money in the past few years, right?" He suddenly started laughing maniacally, and kept saying Throwing whatever you could find at Lupin.

Soon, Lupine's gray suit became miserable, his heart became even more panicked, and his face turned gray.

"Sirius, if the truth is as you said, if Peter is found... I will overturn the case for you." Lupine said this, and then fled Azkaban in a hurry.

The memories ended here. Apart from paying people to search for Peter who might be alive, he just found Snape who was still familiar to him.

This was one of the few options he could think of.

"I refuse. I can't stand trial for someone who tried to kill me. Please find someone else to do." Severus turned a deaf ear to Lupine's plea. He was already very humane by not adding insult to injury.

Lu Ping could only leave in despair, who else could he ask for help.

In Black Manor, Regulus frowned while looking through the information coming from Australia. They finally found the trace of the rat.

Tom looked at the young man who was in a bad mood and had a rough guess about their conversation just now, but it wasn't very wonderful.

When Severus calmed down, he turned around and saw a man and a snake looking at him worriedly, and his heart felt inexplicably soft.

"I'm fine, I'm really fine." He smiled and continued to pack his luggage.

Tom and the basilisk looked at each other for a while, then also walked into the bedroom.

[Little Tom, what did you put in my suitcase? 】 The basilisk saw his movements and stared at him suspiciously with its little eyes, "Don't take all your toys to the town, you know I will come back." 】It just thought Tom had hidden some toys.

Tom nodded without changing his expression, and put the glass bottle down much more gently, [Hiss, I got it, Halbo. 】

Tom and the others had been behind Severus' back when they talked in snake language, and the Basilisk had promised not to tell him, so the young man had not discovered this little secret until now.

The basilisk flicked its tail and directed Tom to put its little hat in.

Everything was ready, and just as they were carrying their luggage downstairs, someone else came to the door.

"I'm not a shelter here. Why do you come to me if you have any problems?" Severus helplessly invited people into the room and complained to Petunia with a not very good expression.

Petunia smiled awkwardly, raised Harry's little hand and waved to him, "Harry, this is your Uncle Sev. He hugged you when you were one year old."

Little Harry looked at the thin black-haired young man, blinked his green eyes, and asked the question in his little mind, "Are you my father? We both have black hair, and we are both white." His little He was talking loudly, and he stretched out his chubby hand and waved it in front of him.

Severus looked at Petunia, what do you usually teach your children?

Penny looked back innocently, her child had grown up and had his own ideas, what could she do?

"Ahem, Harry, didn't I show you dad's photo? Have you forgotten?" Petunia patted the back of Harry's hand and said with a smile.

Little Harry was so excited. He broke away from his aunt's hand, hugged the young man's leg with his short hands, and said loudly, "But the people in the photo look different from me, and they don't come to see me. That's why It's my dad."

Severus had a heart attack. He didn't want to have a kid named Potter at all.

Petunia took a lot of effort to tear Harry off the young man's legs, clamped the pouty lips with her hands, and said sternly, "Harry Potter, your mother is Lily, and your father is James, what’s in the photo is that they sacrificed for..., they are great, you can’t say that.”

Harry stared at his aunt's serious face, blinked his moist eyes and nodded. The other children had parents who loved them, but he could only see the cold stone tablets with their parents' names on them.

Severus sighed, and after seeing Petunia coaxing the child, he asked Tom to take him to watch cartoons.

"Penny, I really can't take Harry with me. I'm going to a small town for vacation." He pointed to the luggage on the ground and the clothes on his body, his meaning self-evident.

Petunia clasped her hands together and prayed to the young man.

"More than ten days ago, a friend of Potter came to my house and said he wanted to adopt Harry. I refused, but he came again yesterday... You know the wizard's methods... I was afraid that refusing too many times would annoy him..." She Worried about Harry's safety and unable to find anyone who could resist the wizard's magic, he had no choice but to come to the young man.

Severus asked about the man's appearance and found out that the man was Lupin. He was indeed Potter's good brother. The first thing he did when he came back was to raise his nephew.

"Penny, write to Dumbledore, he will solve it." The young man opened his lips and said a suggestion, which was to refuse to take care of Harry.

Penny pursed her lips, knowing that this wouldn't work, so she could only retreat and speak out another idea.

"Then can you take over for a week? I will try to come up with a solution."

Severus wanted to tell Petunia that there was no way he could take little Harry away, but seeing her frightened look, he hesitated for a moment and agreed.

Petunia was relieved to see this. Since raising little Harry, the number of troubles has increased.
