[HP] Once Upon a Time in England

Sirius observed carefully, and found that she was also deliberately avoiding facing them.Twice a day, morning and night, she went downstairs to the kitchen to get something to eat while they were asleep, and spent the rest of the time in her room.do nothing.Just staring at the ceiling, wall or outside the window in a daze, it looks like daytime.

In case she passed on the message, there was no pen and paper in her room.Sirius also carefully locked everything in the house that might cause problems, including doors leading to other rooms.Strictly speaking, she actually had nothing to do every day, so he was a little curious about what she was thinking.

He was careful, but things went wrong a few days later.

Harry lay on the cot, sucking his fingers, unable to sleep.Next to the pillow was the storybook he had chosen. Sirius had promised to tell him the story of the three brothers and the Deathly Hallows today, but a few minutes ago, he left in a hurry and said he would be back soon.

Such things have happened before, but Sirius seldom returns in time as he promised.His mission was to deal with the Death Eaters, and only Merlin knew what the Death Eaters would do.

Finally, Harry heard someone open the door, and he hurriedly covered himself with the quilt obediently, ready to listen to a bedtime story.But after a while, the door seemed to be closed, but no one came in.

correct!There is another person living downstairs!Harry had met her, the woman who had asked him if he was Harry Potter at the Ministry of Magic.He thought she was a bad person at first, but he didn't expect to see her in his home later.He secretly asked Sirius why she was in their house, but the godfather only vaguely replied that she would live here for a while.So, she is the godfather's guest?

It shouldn't be too much to ask a guest to tell him a bedtime story, right?

Harry picked up The Tales of Beedle the Bard and ran downstairs.

She was chewing a small tomato when she suddenly heard the door creak behind her.Shocked, she swallowed the tomato whole. When she looked back, she was surprised to find that the little boy in blue pajamas was standing at the door with a book in his arms, and smiled shyly at her: "Can you tell me a story?"

"Huh?" She was confused.

"Sirius doesn't know when he will be back," Harry told a stranger aggrievedly about his little emotions that he had nowhere to vent, "but I want to listen to the story before I go to bed."

The child looked at her expectantly, but she felt her scalp go numb for a while: "But he—" He would never allow himself to touch his godson. This child is the only orphan of his best friend. The only thought of the high-spirited boyhood...

"He won't be angry." Harry tried his best to convince her, "Even if he is angry, just say I came to you on my own initiative." He cleverly came up with a bad idea, just like his father did back then, "Besides, aren't you His guest?"

She gave a wry smile in her heart, but she couldn't say "no" to those pitiful eyes.

Seeing her nod, Harry's eyes lit up, and he was excited to take him to his small room.

If she remembered correctly, this bedroom should have belonged to Walburga and Olaine in the past.Now it has been transformed into a bedroom, study, and playroom as one. Fantastic animal cards are hung on the wall, and the bedside lamp is made into a golden snitch with spread wings. It is obviously arranged with care.

He really loves Harry.

Thinking of other places made her feel a little sour again.

"Read the story of the three brothers, okay." Harry pulled the quilt back and confirmed nervously, "Is this story scary?"

"No, not at all." She turned to the last chapter of the storybook, "There were three brothers who traveled at dawn along a lonely winding road..."

Probably because she was sleepy, Harry's breathing became even and steady before she could say a few words.He opened his small mouth slightly, and the legs that were originally under the quilt unconsciously stretched out.After confirming that he was fast asleep, she put down the storybook, thought about it, and helped him tidy the quilt again.Harry woke briefly with a start, but he fell asleep immediately after a couple of wild grunts.She waited a moment, until he was quiet again, before turning off the light.

When she got up to go back to her room, she was suddenly startled by the man standing by the door.

Sirius folded his arms and leaned against the door frame, watching them for an unknown amount of time.Seeing that she had discovered his existence, he motioned her to come out with him.

She felt that it would be better if she took the initiative to explain clearly: "I didn't go to him, it was because he couldn't sleep..."

"I know." He nodded. "Thank you tonight."

After waiting for a while, he didn't continue to say anything, she was a little embarrassed: "Then I'll go back first."

"Wait a minute." At this moment, he asked another strange question, "Are you responsible for taking care of your daughter when you are at home?"

Why are you asking this?She was a little embarrassed: "Half to half."

"If you miss her, we can arrange for you to meet." He hurriedly explained as if he didn't want her to misunderstand, "This is what Edgar meant."

In order to use family affection to make her speak as soon as possible?She shook her head: "No need."

I don't know what he thought of, he was silent for a while, and then let her leave as if he suddenly lost interest: "You go."
