Slytherin's salvation is nothingness

The summer vacation came, but instead of returning to England, Cyrus continued to live in Durmstrang. She wanted to use these two months to absorb as much knowledge of dark magic as possible, and Grindelwald was also guiding her.

Kate graduated successfully and went to help Lupine's alchemy company. Lupine needed to handle the recruitment of a large number of werewolves, and Kate assisted and managed the production of alchemy products. The twins also used their summer vacation time to intern there, and would often send Cyrus various novel alchemical products.

Sirius would go to Privet Drive to take Harry around when he had nothing to do. As long as Harry went back to stay at night, it would not be considered as breaking the loving protection imposed by his mother. During this period, Cyrus went back to attend Regulus's funeral. Only Sirius, Lupine and Dumbledore attended. But he was also very satisfied. Voldemort's Horcruxes could not be known to the public. This was the key information to defeat him.

Kreacher and Sirius no longer disliked each other, and their relationship was much better, but they were dissatisfied with Kreacher's appearance as a tramp. Kull and Dobby would go to Kreacher during breaks. Dobby's free speech was often scorned by Kreacher, and the two would fight whenever they had nothing to do.

Cyrus receives news from Rita and Lupine that Jorkins recently appeared in Knockturn Alley. It's finally here. I wonder if Voldemort will like my little surprise.

In the Riddle Mansion, a pale and weak Jorkins entered the Riddle Mansion. As soon as he stepped into the door, there was a beeping sound from a machine under his feet, and then he was surrounded by fire.

When the smoke cleared, a note appeared in the air: "Surprise! Signed: Your Ancestor."

Although Jorkins released the protective spell, he was also hit by the impact of the explosion and broke his ribs. An angry roar came from behind his head that was covered by a hat: "Cyrus!!!"

With more than two weeks left before the start of school, Cyrus left Durmstrang reluctantly. To be honest, she might be better suited there. Because the Quidditch World Cup was about to be held, the twins kept writing to themselves asking her to stay at their house and watch the game together. Fudge and Ludo Bagman also wrote to invite Cyrus and gave them VIP tickets to the game.

Of course Cyrus goes to the ball game, and at the end of the game a bunch of Death Eaters start a riot. Lucius also inquired about the news and wrote to Cyrus immediately. It must be said that this pureblood who likes to play both sides is quite discerning. Although she didn't want to do anything to little Barty yet, it was not impossible to capture a few Death Eaters.

Sirius also asked Cyrus to go to the ball game with him in the letter, and also mentioned Harry's recent nightmare. Cyrus also wrote back to Arthur and Sirius, telling them that he would pick up Harry and go to the Weasleys to stay for a few days.

Sirius acted as cheating as usual and wanted to go pick up Harry with Cyrus, but as soon as the big black dog entered the Dursleys' house, he took out his wand and threatened Uncle Harry and the others. Now he went to the Dursleys' house. Everyone will be frightened.

Cyrus wrote another letter to Vernon Dursley on Muggle stationery. Harry's uncle was the director of the Granning Company, which specializes in producing drilling rigs in the Muggle world. Cyrus had invested in the Muggle world. One of several companies. I happened to go visit them as a shareholder.

"You brat! Let me tell you, a distinguished guest is coming today. If you mess up again, move back to that cubicle and never come out again!"

Vernon adjusted his bloated suit and shouted to Harry that his company's largest shareholder was coming to his home as a guest today, so he couldn't neglect it. His wife, Petunia, was also preparing a sumptuous dinner. Originally, they had been on a weight loss plan for their son Dudley recently, so the meals were light.

But today's visit was important, and Dudley could finally eat meat. All three of them were dressed up, but Harry still wore ordinary Muggle clothes. Since Sirius was cleared of his crimes, he has bought all kinds of clothes for Harry, but Harry can only wear this way when he lives in a Muggle community. But no more Dudley's old clothes.

Harry looked angry but helpless. He thought about Ron telling him that he would pick him up to go to the ball game, but there was still no news after so long. Could it be that he had forgotten himself? Harry returned to the bedroom and sulked.

The Dursleys, who were in the living room, heard a knock on the door and immediately put on their makeup. Vernon opened the door first. A girl under 17 years old stood in front of the door and smiled elegantly at them.

"Hello, Mr. Dursley. I am Cyrus Slytherin. I made an appointment in the letter to come to your house tonight."

The girl's indifferent face could not hide her natural beauty and exquisite facial features, her temperament was elegant, and her gentle smile was indescribably gentle and lovely. The blue eyes are as captivating as the vast ocean. The three people standing at the door were all stunned. Vernon reacted and said quickly: "You...are Miss Slytherin?"

Cyrus took out the letters between the two to prove his identity. "Sorry, sorry! Miss Slytherin, please forgive our rudeness. Please come in!" Although Vernon was extremely surprised, he couldn't deny that the underage girl in front of him was a shareholder of his company.

The Dursleys hurriedly invited Cyrus into the room. Dudley was still at the door staring at Cyrus as if he was petrified. Seeing her son's rude behavior, Penny quickly put her arm on his shoulders and pushed him into the living room to sit down.

Several people sat down around the dining table. Vernon hurriedly poured wine for Cyrus, but hesitated.

Cyrus stared at the empty wine glass and frowned slightly, "Mr. Dursley, don't worry, I personally like drinking. And age is not like appearance, I have already grown up."

Cyrus was also curious about alcohol in the Muggle world. Vernon poured a glass of red wine for Cyrus and said flatteringly: "Miss Slytherin is really young and promising. My wife Petunia specially prepared a sumptuous dinner for you today."

Cyrus picked up the wine glass and sipped lightly, "Thank you Mr. Dursley and Mrs. Dursley for your warm hospitality. You don't have to be too restrained. Your ability is obvious to all, and you can be said to have a successful career. Today I just want to meet such an outstanding virtue." Mr. Sili, the other thing is to pick up a friend."

Vernon raised a toast to Cyrus and couldn't help but wonder when he heard Cyrus talking about friends, "Who is the friend Miss Slytherin is talking about?"

Cyrus put down his glass, "Mrs. Dursley must have been busy all day. I don't want to be ungrateful. Mr. Dursley, can we eat first?"

Petunia also smiled, and Vernon nodded quickly, "Of course, of course, please, Miss Slytherin."

Cyrus stretched out his hand to stop everyone's movements. Dudley looked at the chicken legs in front of him and swallowed again and again.

"Since it's dinner time, shouldn't we wait for everyone to sit down? I heard that you have a nephew, why not ask him to come with you?"

"Ha, he has already eaten, Miss Slytherin. Don't worry about him, we eat ours." Seeing that Cyrus ignored him, Vernon looked at him silently. I shuddered for some reason,

"Ah...I'll go call him." After a while, Vernon's threatening voice came from the corridor, "Put away your crap! Remember, don't screw it up for me!"

Then Vernon walked out with a smile on his face, and Harry behind him secretly glared at him several times. Harry looked at the dining table impatiently, where a familiar figure was sitting at the dining table slowly sipping red wine. "Cyrus?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard Harry's voice. How could he know Miss Slytherin and still call her so familiar? ! Cyrus waved to Harry, "Long time no see, Harry. Come, sit down and eat."

Ignoring the surprised looks from Vernon and others, Cyrus motioned for Harry to sit next to him. Full of confusion and surprise, Harry sat down and kept asking in a low voice, "How do you know I live here? Did Sirius tell you?"

Cyrus ignored Harry and looked at Vernon, "Okay, Mr. Dursley. Let's start dinner."

Dudley quickly grabbed the chicken drumstick and stuffed it into his mouth. Vernon and Petunia were still surprised and confused, but they didn't dare to ask. Cyrus also picked up the knife and picked up the food. Seeing that Cyrus did not explain, the Dursleys had no choice but to eat in silence and sometimes cast questioning looks at Harry.

Harry didn't dare to continue questioning Cyrus. The experience at the Screaming Shack that night made him afraid to make a mistake in front of Cyrus.

In the awkward and stiff atmosphere, Cyrus elegantly wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and then slowly said: "Mrs. Dursley's craftsmanship is really good, thank you for your hospitality. So, Mr. Dursley, in addition to being a shareholder of your company, outside.

I am also a wizard and go to the same school as your nephew. Another purpose of this visit is to pick him up to stay at a friend's house, and then take him to watch the Quidditch World Cup match. Probably similar to the football game, you don't need to take Harry to school this year. Someone will take him to school after the game. "

Cyrus spoke very slowly, as if taking care of the slow-moving brains of several people. Then he looked at the stunned Vernon, "Any more questions, Mr. Dursley?"

Vernon couldn't say anything for a moment, he didn't know whether to be angry or what to do. He hates wizards very much, but the wizard in front of him is still his immediate boss. He takes into account the disgust he suppresses in his heart and squeezes out a smile.

"It turns out that Miss Slytherin's friend is Harry...ah, if Miss Slytherin takes him to some game...I have no objection."

Cyrus nodded and looked at Harry, "Are you full? If so, go upstairs and pack your bags. We will go directly to Weasley's house in a moment."

No matter how many questions he had just now, Harry immediately went upstairs to pack his luggage when he heard that he could leave. Seeing Harry leave, Cyrus looked at Vernon again,

"Mr. Dursley seems to hate wizards. All fear comes from the unknown, doesn't it? Don't worry, I won't hurt you. Your willingness to continue raising Harry also shows that you don't hate wizards that much. You are in the Granning Company It seems that I have been in the position of supervisor for a long time, and it is time to upgrade my position.”

After Cyrus dismissed him, Vernon stopped glaring at Cyrus secretly, and instead looked happy. Cyrus saw from the corner of his eye that Dudley was still eating. It seemed that he had found a foodie who could compete with Ron.

Then he looked at Petunia Dursley, Lily Evans' sister.

I can't see any magic power... My sister has magic, but I am just an ordinary person. I hear my sister talk about the colorful magic world, but I can't enter it. After finally living an ordinary life, she had to adopt her younger sister's child, which was like a thorn that constantly reminded her of her "ordinaryness".

She was born outside the magical world and desperately longed to enter that world, but she could not tell her family and husband about her expectations and fantasies about magic. However, poor people must be hateful, as can be seen from the treatment of Harry. Cyrus quickly looked away, and Penny noticed that Cyrus' gaze just now made her a little nervous and uncomfortable.

"Mrs. Dursley, don't be afraid, I mean no harm."

Penny nodded stiffly, then seemed to want to say something but held it back. Cyrus didn't feel as scary to her as the man who had previously claimed to be Harry's godfather, but the girl's excellent identity and appearance couldn't help but make her feel a little embarrassed. She had longed for that world so much, but now she was left with only resentment and jealousy.

"Destiny always plays tricks on innocent people. You now have a happy family." Cyrus's voice came, but neither the husband nor the children beside him seemed to hear it. It felt terrible to be seen through by a girl, but she couldn't get angry. Penny got up, cleared the table and fled the restaurant.

Harry had already carried the big suitcase and Hegwig's cage downstairs. He said excitedly: "Let's go, Cyrus!"

Cyrus was sitting on the sofa in the living room, "Come here Harry, I have something to tell you." Then he looked at Vernon, "Mr. Dursley, can you and your son please step aside? I have something to say. I have personal matters to discuss with Harry."

Vernon seemed a little unhappy but had no choice but to pull Dudley upstairs. Cyrus cast an earplug and shielding spell around him, and looked at Harry beside him, "Sirius told me that you had a nightmare about Voldemort recently. Can you tell me what you dreamed about? Maybe I can help you. .”

Harry was a little at a loss. He didn't want to trouble Cyrus because of his unprovoked nightmare, but he still spoke at Cyrus's insistence. "I dreamed that in a dark room, Voldemort turned into a particularly disgusting baby. There was also a man with a burnt face in front of him, who seemed to be saying something. He seemed to be saying to catch someone, but I couldn't hear it. Qing. It should just be a nightmare."

Cyrus looked at Harry with his blue eyes, and then nodded, "Maybe Voldemort left some magic power on your scar, which will have some negative effects. But it's not a big problem. I will brew some soothing potion for you later. You should not have nightmares."

Harry nodded gratefully and was about to thank Cyrus again when he was interrupted by the girl. "Let's go, don't keep Mr. Arthur and the others waiting."

Cyrus lifted the spell around him, went upstairs to greet Vernon and others, and left with Harry. After walking out of the house, Cyrus raised his right arm, "Hold on to me, don't forget your luggage."

When Harry grabbed his wrist, Cyrus showed a playful smile: "It may feel a little uncomfortable, but it will be fine soon."

Then a firecracker exploded, and the two figures twisted and gradually disappeared in a vortex of air. Harry vaguely smelled a light blue fragrance while feeling dizzy and nauseated. He opened his eyes and found himself leaning on the girl, who gently patted him on the back.

"This happens every time you apparate for the first time. You will get used to it after trying it a few times." Looking up into Cyrus's blue eyes, Harry immediately stepped back and said awkwardly: "Oh... um."

"Harry! Cyrus! You are here." Hermione's voice came, and Ron and the twins also walked out of the Burrow. Hermione and Harry hugged each other, and Cyrus was not surprised at all when the twins put their arms around each other's shoulders, "Cyrus, you're here. Come on, we'll take you to see our secret workshop."

Seeing Arthur and Molly greeting them, "Harry, Cyrus, come in first."

After entering the house, Cyrus greeted the two of them politely, and Molly enthusiastically handed her a small cake. "Kid, I wanted to thank you before. I saved Ginny, helped George, Fred and the others so much. I originally disapproved of them doing these weird things, but I didn't expect them to be able to interact with magic. Cooperation with all departments. From what Arthur said, it’s all your fault. Thank you so much. Are you hungry? Do you want some more dessert?”

Cyrus took the cake and smiled back, "Mrs. Weasley is still so warm and gentle, there is no need to thank me. Slytherin needs to protect the students of Hogwarts. George and Fred are all on their own." I'm just a matchmaker for my talent. You've oversold me."

Arthur also greeted Cyrus warmly, "Haha Cyrus, you are so humble. I still want to thank you anyway. I didn't expect you to have learned how to change your body. That's part of seventh grade study."

Cyrus waved his hand and said, "Okay Mr. Weasley, if you praise me any more, it will be too disrespectful. I will disturb you and Mrs. Weasley for a few more days."
