Harry Potter: Charlie and the Candy Factory

Chapter 8: The Doomed Sleepless Night

Harry was used to this.

He stretched out his hand, brushed away the falling dust, and then deftly turned over in the narrow cupboard to make his posture more comfortable.

All that is needed next is to wait.

Harry thought this, and the smile on his lips continued to grow.

Based on his understanding of his cousin Dudley, now that it was in his hands, he would never let go of the chocolate even after dinner.

As for what would happen after eating the chocolate... To be honest, although Charlie was careful and didn't tell him, he could vaguely imagine that it might be a wonderful prank.

"I guess Mr. Charlie added chili pepper, or laxative or something, to that piece of chocolate. Or maybe... there is actually cockroach powder in that piece of chocolate."

Harry thought hopefully, and then said to himself.

It seems that he has seen the embarrassing things that will happen to Dudley later.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak..."

Just as I was thinking about it, the stairs above the cupboard suddenly creaked with the sound of footsteps.

Harry quickly came to his senses, carefully pressed his ears to the wooden wall of the cupboard, and listened attentively to the movement upstairs.

However, what he didn't expect was that for a long time after the footsteps of the Dursley family gradually stopped and disappeared, nothing he wanted to hear happened.

"What's going on?" Harry frowned in confusion.

"Didn't Dudley eat that hazelnut chocolate bar? It's not like he would do that."

Talking to himself again.

But Harry was not discouraged, but continued to wait patiently.

All the lights in the house were turned off, and the family returned to their rooms and began to prepare to fall asleep.

Harry lay on his back in the cupboard, gently rubbing the moldy lines on the wooden wall to kill time.

Finally, just when he felt sleepy, his eyelids drooped, and he was about to fall asleep without being able to resist the sleepiness.

From Dali's room, a scream that was mixed with panic and a little crying suddenly came out.

For a moment, Harry, who was still drowsy, suddenly started to wake up, and his green pupils shone with surprise.

He quickly put his ear against the wall again and began to hear the excitement that he had been waiting for a long time.

Dudley's scream was like a sudden air raid siren in the dark night.

The original tranquility was completely disrupted.

"Peng!"

Dursley was wearing pajamas, and almost at the same time as Dudley screamed, he kicked open the door to his room, and then hurried to his precious son's room.

It's really difficult for him to say...I really don't know how he can drag such a heavy tonnage and still do it so fast.

The aunt followed closely behind, turning on the corridor light with a "pop", and followed Uncle Dursley's footsteps with a frightened expression on her face.

"Dudley? Dudley! My little baby Dudley, what's wrong with you!? Oh, my God, my God..."

It seemed that she had never heard her precious son scream so pitifully. At this moment, her aunt was shouting, and even her voice was slightly trembling.

"Kekeke..."

Harry lay flat on his back in the cupboard with his arms pillowed on his back, looking at the dim light shining through the cracks in the wood above. Finally he couldn't hold back anymore and let out a chuckle.

Dursley came to the door of Dudley's room. Without a moment's pause, he grabbed the door handle, opened the door, and looked inside anxiously.

The redness on his face had not faded, and he stood at the door, breathing heavily while trying to figure out what happened.

In the room, Dudley curled up in a small blanket, shivering constantly.

Although compared to his huge body, the small blanket covering him looked extremely ridiculous.

"Baby, what's wrong with you!?"

Auntie quickly squeezed through Uncle Dursley who was blocking the door, and hurried to Dudley's bedside. Looking at Dudley who was wrapped tightly around him, she reached out anxiously and hurriedly pulled off the blanket covering him.

Tear it off.

It didn't matter if it wasn't true. When the aunt lifted up the blanket and saw Dudley in the blanket, her eyes that were originally widened couldn't help but turn up to reveal the whites of her eyes.

The whole person almost became weak suddenly and fell to the ground in a faint.

Even Uncle Dursley choked violently when he lifted up the blanket and saw Dudley underneath.

The eyes squeezed into the fat seemed to be so wide open for the first time in his life. And the cheeks that were originally flushed turned an obviously abnormal purple color.

He staggered twice and almost fell to the ground like his wife.

Fortunately, he was leaning against the door, so he subconsciously grabbed it, which acted as a support.

"God..."

His lips trembled and he muttered subconsciously.

The look in Dudley's eyes seemed to be looking at something extremely terrifying.

And that’s exactly what happened...

Under the blanket, Dudley, wearing pajamas, was lying on the bed in fear, covering his face with his hands, trying to cover his nose and ears, which had become extremely funny.

But this kind of covering was completely ineffective, because the fat pig nose and ears were obviously not things that his hands could cover.

That's right, after eating the chocolate, the exquisite transformation technique Charlie left on it was officially activated.

Dudley completely changed his look according to his own memory of Zhu Bajie’s classic appearance in the 1998 version of Journey to the West!

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Dudley was so frightened that he cried while looking at his parents' expressions.

But the sound turned into the sound effect of a pig "snort, snort".

……………………

At this moment, Harry, who was locked in the cupboard, obviously didn't know what happened. He just heard a commotion upstairs.

But what exactly happened, and what kind of mischief Mr. Charlie's piece of chocolate brought to Dudley, he really had no idea.

"Hey……"

Listening to the original noise above, it suddenly stopped after Uncle Dursley opened the door, I just thought that Mr. Charlie's prank was over and the fun was gone.

So Harry no longer persisted. He couldn't help but yawned, turned over, changed his position, and fell asleep again within a short time.

It's just...for the Dursley family, this night is destined to be a sleepless night.
