[HP] Can you be gentle with me

Chapter 42 42. The Muggle World

In the evening, a group of talents returned to Tahlia's home. James was stuffed with a stack of popular science books as he wished. Seeing James' distorted expression, Remus finally understood the meaning of the phrase "don't do nothing, don't die" and didn't forget to remind him Sirius, who was holding back his laughter from the sidelines, restrained himself a bit, otherwise he would probably end up in the same fate as James.

James looked angrily at the two people who were watching his jokes, he felt unbalanced, how could he have made these unscrupulous friends, look, just say that he can't get too familiar with Sirius, even the good boy Remus was taken away Yes, he sighed, and resignedly took the big bag Tahlia handed him, stuffed the books into it, and decided not to open the bag until he could.

For dinner, Hamish still showed his cooking skills. Remus felt that he must be the golden bachelor here. He is tall and good-looking. He can also cook. He is simply the representative of the modern new good man. One with a girlfriend?But he didn't ask. After all, this is someone's housework, and maybe they haven't met a suitable partner at all... Thinking of this, Remus couldn't help but want to slap his forehead hard. What did he want to do so much? Are they Tahlia's brother wasn't his Remus' brother!

Afterwards, Sirius rushed into the room and took out the wizard chess and explosion cards he specially brought from his backpack, saying that he could let Josh and the others experience it. Of course, the four men found it very novel, pinching and poking at the group of chess pieces Yes, they screamed and roared at first, but after seeing the four men remain unmoved and Josh looked at them with an expression as if he was looking at an experimental product, this group of poor chess pieces shrank back obediently In the corner of the chessboard, four men were allowed to mess with them. The chess pieces said they wanted to go on strike. These days, they would be harassed even if they worked hard and played chess pieces. Is the world crazy or are they abnormal?

Sirius was amazed at how his pieces suddenly became so gentle, and secretly decided to learn this method, otherwise the pieces would just add to the chaos every time he played chess, making his head hurt from the noise.

Several people took turns to play a few games of chess, Remus still killed everyone, but it is worth mentioning that the set of exploding cards never exploded in Hamish's hands, and he successfully stacked up gorgeous castles one after another. James is envious, he has never managed to build a castle without exploding...

"How do you do it?" he asked.

Hamish scratched his head and said. "What do you do? Don't you just stack up the cards?"

"No...I'm asking, how did you manage to keep them from exploding?"

Hamish shook his hand and the castle collapsed, but it still didn't explode. "You said these cards would explode?" As he spoke, he quietly moved away from the pile of cards.

James said quickly. "It's not the kind of explosion you imagined, it's just a prank..." He picked up a card and started a new round of castle stacking. "No harm to people at all... Oh, Merlin..." This time he only piled up the first layer, and the cards began to emit white smoke, and then one after another, they exploded. . "I think they probably have a grudge against me..." he said sarcastically.

Hamish laughed a few times, so what luck did he have for building the castles so smoothly just now?He patted James on the shoulder and asked him to continue to work hard, and he better not touch that exploding deck of cards again.

The next day, Josh walked around Dover with the four children all day long. James was fascinated by the tape recorder and tape that could repeatedly record and play sounds, and kept pressing the record button to record a lot of weird things. sound and then rewind it and play it back, as if desperately trying to find a sound that the tape recorder couldn't record.

Sirius fell in love with the taste of soda after overcoming the shadow of choking on the soda he drank too fast yesterday. When he arrived at the small supermarket, he insisted on buying a bottle of soda with all the different flavors.

"If you open this, drink it quickly..." Tahlia warned. "Otherwise, there won't be any air bubbles... It's better to be ice-cold... I mean, it's better to keep it cold after you take it home, it will taste better."

"Yeah." Sirius replied, holding several bottles of soda tightly in his arms.

"Ah, wait..." Tahlia said, pulling another small drawstring bag out of her backpack. "This is for you..." As he said, he threw the soda in Sirius's arms into the bag one by one. After entering the bag, the soda seemed to disappear, and soon all the soda was packed into the bag. Put it in this drawstring bag the size of a palm.

Sirius opened his mouth wide in surprise. "This... is this a space bag? You can even make a space bag?"

"I didn't do it." Tahlia clarified that she didn't have time to study how to make a space bag, and just learning from Lucius has already consumed a lot of his time. "Lucius gave it to me."

"He would send you this kind of thing..." Sirius said in a daze, what on earth is that Malfoy guy up to? It's suspicious enough just to help Tahlia keep it a secret. I took out all the space bags I made and gave them to her...

"Haha, I actually asked him to come." Tahlia smiled.

He remembered his reaction when he saw Lucius take out the space bag. At that time, they were practicing manipulating objects with magic spells to attack their opponents. After Tahlia threw several obstacles and brushed past Lucius' feet, he quickly agreed. The drawstring bag was delivered to her hand, lest she accidentally 'miss' and smash the obstacle on him. Now think about it, if Lucius didn't take out the drawstring bag, wouldn't it be all right?But she also forgot why he took it out... Anyway, it's her own now.

Looking at the smiling Tahlia, Sirius trembled unconsciously, he better not ask her what method she used to insist on coming with Malfoy...

Josh also took them to a fast food restaurant, and several of them frantically cleaned up French fries, fried chicken and other food. It seemed that they were all very novel and satisfied with this visit to the Muggle world.

"We're going to James' house tomorrow, right?" Remus asked.

In the evening, they were back on Castle Hill Road, playing Muggle poker in a circle on the sofa in the living room, which Tahlia had just taught them how to play.Among them, Sirius is probably the most unlucky. Almost every time the cards are dealt, he is the one who gets the joker card, and he always gets the joker card at the end of the draw, which makes him almost want to turn over the table, but because of this It's embarrassing to do this in other people's homes.

If it was in his own home, he would definitely kick the table and burn the deck of cards... As for how his mother would collapse, he didn't care that much...

"Yeah." James replied. "Tomorrow we'll go directly to the Knight Bus." As he said that, he drew a card from Sirius, took a look at it, and threw it into the middle card pile together with the Jack in his hand, and smiled brilliantly. "I've got one left, everyone."

"Damn it..." Sirius cursed angrily, his joke card has been in his hand for so long that he finds it an eyesore, but it won't be taken away... It's disgusting to see this clown in a weird costume Laughing to himself, he gritted his teeth, this must be a provocation!

"Haha," Tahlia smiled and watched Remus draw cards from James's hand in a relaxed and completely stress-free way. "Just treat it as a good deed. You see, everyone doesn't have to worry about drawing a fake card..." Saying that, she also asked Remus Hand draw, bingo!Smiling and throwing two aces to the deck. "It's your turn," she said, putting the cards in her hand in front of Sirius.

Sirius randomly picked one, but didn't come across the same one, and said helplessly. "How can there be such a good deed..." The cards in his hand were brought closer to James. "Ha!" He jumped up suddenly. "You got it instead!" He said triumphantly.

James didn't show much annoyance, and said something slowly. "Anyway, it will turn around and return to your hand soon..."

"........."

This is definitely the most unfair game ever!

They also had a very comfortable time at the Potter's house. Although the Potters were a little older, they were very kind people, and they could see how well they treated James. In the end, when they left the Potter's house, Tahlia's stomach and pockets They are filled with cookies of various flavors.

"So we're going our separate ways?" Tahlia asked.

The four of them had been sent to the Leaky Cauldron by Mr. Potter at this time, just like the place they had met at the beginning, and James would follow Mr. Potter back to his home, and now he was going to Gringotts to deal with some money issues.

"Yeah." Sirius nodded, and suddenly thought that going back meant facing his mother who was probably still in a rage, and his mood fell instantly.

Sensing Sirius' mood, Tahlia patted him on the shoulder. "What's wrong?" she asked.

"I..." After hesitating to speak, Sirius hesitated for a while, and finally said. "I don't want to go home...you know, my parents..."

"Sirius," Tahlia said. "I guess, they are your parents after all..." She thought for a moment. "I don't know how to say it. You know, even if there is something about them that you don't like...it's your family." She thought of her parents. Although they didn't like her very much at first, they still gave birth to her Raising her keeps him from living on the streets.

He looked up at Sirius. "I think you just haven't figured out how to get along with your parents yet. But..." She paused. "If they're really bad...you can come to me anytime, I think my brothers would be happy to take you in." She smiled. "Remember? I have a spare room at home."

"I see." Sirius also smiled. "Although I probably know what's going to happen when I get back, it's going to work out."

"Yeah." Talhia nodded with a smile, then turned to Remus. "What about you? How are you going to get home?"

"Father will pick me up later," Remus said. "I'll wait for him in the Leaky Cauldron..."

Tahlia nodded, saw the bus approaching slowly in the distance, and waved to everyone. "Then, when my bus arrives, I'll go first," she said.Then rush to the stop sign before the bus arrives.

After getting in the car, Tahlia did not forget to say goodbye to everyone from the car window.The four days passed by very quickly as if by magic, but they did have a lot of fun. She hasn't felt so relaxed for a long time, so she doesn't have to think about anything, just enjoy the days. It's addictive, but... She clenched her fists, she has to go back to school, she has to face the magic world, and she has to live on. The days to come won't be as leisurely as these days, yes It's time to calm down...

For her, the future is bound to be rough.
