[HP] Can you be gentle with me

Chapter 221 208. Suspicion

"What do you... think... Tahlia of her... this person?"

Quirrell thought for a moment.

Of course, he couldn't figure out what the Lord meant when he asked this question. It should be said that he knew that he was not qualified to guess... However, if he didn't answer the Lord's meaning──

"Lord, I think Tahlia Watson is very capable and shrewd." Finally, he said this, after all, anyone could see the Lord's appreciation for that woman.

Voldemort laughed.

"You...you're right...wrong." He said slowly. "Tahlia Watson...is really... shrewd." There was a pause. "You... describe it very well."

Quirrell was about to speak, but was interrupted by another sudden voice from Voldemort.

"It's really... shrewd," he said.

"Lord?" Quirrell asked in confusion.

Voldemort didn't get impatient with Quirrell's confusion, instead he raised the corners of his mouth and spoke. "Did you ever...injure yourself because...the weapon was too...sharp...?"

Quirrell understood instantly. "You...Lord, are you going to—" If he was right, Lord meant to...

"Not now, Quirinus..." Voldemort said lazily, waving his thin arms seemingly casually. "That girl... is still... useful..."

"Of course, I understand." Quirrell nodded quickly.

Yes, now he understood.

His master in front of him really couldn't tolerate even the slightest threat, and he couldn't help feeling a cold sweat in his heart. Thinking of the night before, he still wanted to perform desperately. Now it seems that if it is too much, it will also arouse the suspicion of the Dark Lord.

"You too...you should leave..." Voldemort spoke again. "I'm... very... looking forward to your...subsequent...report."

Quirrell nodded respectfully, and then slowly exited the cabin.

A few days later, a note was delivered to Tahlia's home.

At that time, she was sitting on the sofa watching Harry happily pack the things he was going to bring to school. In fact, she really wanted to tell him that there were more than two weeks before school started, and he didn't need to start preparing things so early, but She could understand Harry's mood.

No one would not look forward to going to Hogwarts, even the original self was also full of anticipation.

"Don't you bring your little bear?" Tahlia asked curiously, seeing Harry put the blue furry bear aside instead of putting it in the suitcase after struggling for a while.

Harry has always liked that little bear, even if he didn't hug it at night, he must keep it in his sight. Maybe he doesn't remember, but Tahlia remembers that it was when he was very young, and he went to Lucius' house one time Finally, Draco, who was also very young at the time, generously sent him a doll.

"I..." Harry hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Tahlia. "I've grown up, I can't like this anymore!" Besides, if I really took it to the school dormitory, I might be made fun of by other students...

Tahlia chuckled out loud. "Who said you can't bring a bear when you grow up? I never told you that, Harry...have you forgotten who made you less afraid of nightmares?"

Harry lowered his head.

Of course it was his James. Every time he woke up from a nightmare, as long as he saw James, it was strange, and he would feel at ease and not be afraid.

"You know, there's no shame in having an item that gives you power, Harry," Tahlia reminded. "I have it too."

"Tahlia has a... bear too?" Harry looked up, surprise written all over his face.

Tahlia chuckled. "Not Bear, but he is very important to me. I swear no matter where I go, I will never leave him. I think you should do the same." There was a pause. "It's definitely a good thing that you can face any challenge bravely and firmly... If your classmates make fun of you because of this, you don't have to pay attention to them."

"I have a bear too!" Nigel, who was sitting at the side, suddenly joined the topic, and Tahlia looked at him with a flash of comfort.

Nigel hurried into the room, and after a while, ran out again, holding a teddy bear that was almost half his size. "Look!" he said triumphantly.

Harry felt speechless.

This means that Nigel plans to take such a big thing to the dormitory after a few years...

Merlin

Unexpectedly, Tahlia did not respond to Nigel's gesture of offering a treasure, and they realized after a few seconds that Tahlia's attention had been completely attracted by an owl on the windowsill.

She walked forward slowly and took down a small scroll tied to the owl's foot.

The whole person froze.

"Tahlia?" Harry and Nigel were both confused because Tahlia just stood there by the window all of a sudden.

"...It's okay." Tahlia turned her head and smiled. "I was just thinking about something."

"Yeah." Nigel nodded, and immediately ran forward, lifted the doll up high, and continued the topic just now. "I will always take him with me in the future!"

Tahlia stroked Nigel's head. "I know, I will help you remember, and you must remember yourself, you can't leave him..."

"Okay!" Nigel nodded vigorously. "I will also help Tahlia remember that you can't leave your important things behind!"

"Of course." Tahlia smiled again, rubbed Nigel's hair one last time, then threw the note in her hand into the fireplace, pulled out her wand and threw a small fireball that burned.

She was well prepared to face Voldemort's murderous intentions. After all, she would have to show her cards to him sooner or later. She didn't believe that Voldemort's reaction after that would be a kind expression of willingness to put aside the past. That was never the behavior of Voldemort, no ?

Tahlia didn't expect it to be so fast──

Unexpectedly, Voldemort already wanted her life, and the reason was not because of her betrayal, but because she was too capable...

I can't help but sneer in my heart.

It turned out that Voldemort was so narrow-minded that he couldn't even tolerate the ability of his subordinates. It seemed that his downfall was already doomed.

but……

Tahlia silently looked at Nigel on the floor who was trying to work with Harry to cover the overfilled suitcase.

It would be naive for Voldemort to think that he could take her life so easily... It should be said that even if she was killed by him in the end, she swore that she would never let Voldemort remain unharmed.

Time passed quickly, and before Harry knew it, it was time for school to start after Harry had laboriously stuffed some things into the suitcase one after another.

This year, Tahlia didn't take the two children directly to school, she had to let Harry go through platform [-] and three quarters to follow everyone to the school by train, which was the most important part of being a student.

So, early in the morning on September [-]st, Tahlia urged Harry and Nigel, who were sleepy but happy because they were woken up too early, to get ready to go out.

In the end, Harry didn't put the invisibility cloak in the suitcase, but put it with Nigel, which was the tool Nigel used to find them secretly later!Although he still doesn't know which academy he will enter...

He'd love to be in a house with Draco!But the Ron he met at Christmas before was also very kind, and the Gryffindors were very enthusiastic, just look at the Weasley family...Harry, who was already standing on the platform waiting for the Malfoy family to appear, was in a dilemma.

"Actually, you don't need to be so troubled now, Harry." Tahlia seemed to guess the troubles in Harry's heart, and reminded gently. "I clearly told you that no matter which college you are in, it will be the one that suits you best, and the sorting hat can't be wrong—" Looking up, he saw Lucius' striking light-blond long hair in front of him, and stretched out his hand He patted the two children and motioned them to look forward. "Look, here they come," she said.

It didn't take long for the family she was talking about to walk in front of them.

Draco also had an excited face, and a faint blush appeared on his face because of this, and he couldn't contain his excitement when he saw Tahlia and the others.

He is going to school!And it's still with Harry, and Nigel will come in with him in a few years...

"Harry, come and sit in my box later." He said with a hint of pride in his tone. "My box won't be disturbed by others, I don't think you want others to stare at your face all the time, do you?"

Harry didn't answer right away, but turned his head to look at Tahlia.

"Well, it's true that the Malfoy exclusive box will not be disturbed, if you mind, go ahead...Draco is with you anyway..." Tahlia said with a smile.Then he turned his head and spoke to Lucius with a half-smile and a voice invisible to others. "I think back then, it was all monopolized by you and Narcissa..."

"Tahlia Watson!" Lucius growled, and then realized that it was too unrecognizable, he quickly straightened the robe on his body to cover up, bent down pretending to be serious, and told Draco some serious words.

Tahlia didn't continue to tease, but also knelt down and said to Harry. "Harry, after school starts, it's okay if you miss us, you know where my office is, Nigel and I are always here."

Harry nodded.

After a while, it was almost time for the train to leave. Lucius had already directed the luggage of the two children to get on the train and put them on the train. Seeing that the time was almost up, Lucius and Tahlia urged his children to get on the train.

Almost at the moment Harry dragged Draco, who was still a bit reluctant to leave his parents, on the train, they heard the sound of the siren, and then they clearly felt that the train began to move forward slowly, and hurried him to run After entering the box, he waved to several adults and Nigel who were still standing on the platform outside from the window of the box.

"See you at school, Tahlia." Harry couldn't help shouting as the train started to speed away, but he wasn't sure if his words reached Tahlia.

After a while, even the shadow of the platform was gone.

"Phew! It's going to be a long train ride." Harry sat down on the chair and said relaxedly, only to notice that Draco's previously excited expression changed to become visibly sullen. "Draco?" he asked. "What's wrong with you? Not happy?"

Draco was asked, his face turned redder instantly, and he muttered something in a low voice. "It's not like you can see Tahlia and Nigel even at school... the next time I go home, it will be Christmas..." He's never been away from home for so long, and never been away from home for so long Meet your parents.

"Ah..." Harry lowered his head in understanding, and spoke again after a while. "You'll get used to it, Draco...we're all going to grow up," he said. "Besides, you also said that Tahlia is at the school, at least you can still see your godmother, right? Nigel will definitely come to see us often, so you won't be so unhappy... The sorting will be in a while! And the school Commencement dinner!"

Seeing that Draco still looked a little frustrated, Harry didn't know how else to comfort him for a moment, racked his brains for a while, and then curled up the corners of his mouth and spoke.

"Tell me, what would happen if Uncle Lucius knew that you put on an expression at the start-of-school banquet that seemed to tell the whole world that the heir of the Malfoy family was in a bad mood?" After a pause, Draco froze instantly with satisfaction, and continued to remain calm opening. "That doesn't fit the image of a Malfoy, does it?"
