Hogwarts Emerald

Whether it's a conspiracy or a conspiracy, the Ministry of Magic has already used this trick. It just depends on how Dumbledore takes it.

Dumbledore was not unprepared for this. He was well aware of the Ministry of Magic's dirty tricks, but he was entrusting them to unjust people.

In order to protect Harry's safety, Dumbledore took great pains. Not only did he find a way to continue Harry's minor protection law, he also arranged for Mrs. Figg, a squib, to secretly take care of Harry.

Now that Voldemort is back, Harry's security level has naturally been improved accordingly. Dumbledore arranged bodyguards for Harry to work in shifts to protect Harry's safety.

Today's bodyguard is Mundungus Fletcher, an unreliable fellow.

It was precisely because of Mundungus Fletcher's absence from duty that Harry lost the protection he deserved and that allowed the Ministry of Magic's little move to succeed.

In the kitchen of No. 4 Privet Drive, under Vernon's repeated questioning, Harry explained everything that happened tonight.

But Vernon didn't believe Harry, especially when the delirious Dudley misidentified him.

Vernon raised his voice and let out a deafening roar. He shouted: "You cast a weird spell on my son, which made him hear someone talking in his head and thought that he... he would never be happy again in his life. ,Yes or no?"

"How many more times do I have to tell you?" Harry said, his voice rising in anger, "It's not me. It's two Dementors!"

"What?" Vernon shouted in confusion, "Two of those random things?"

A Muggle could be forgiven for not understanding Dementors, since they couldn't see them.

Harry said word by word: "Dementors! And there are two of them! I cast the Patronus Charm and drove away the dementors, so the two of us can come back safely!"

"What kind of weird thing is this dementor?" Vernon asked, the fat on his face trembling with anger.

"They guard the Azkaban wizard prison." Petunia, who was taking care of Dudley, suddenly said.

As soon as the words came out, there was two seconds of dead silence, and then Aunt Petunia suddenly covered her mouth with her hands, as if she had accidentally said a disgusting curse word just now. Vernon looked at his wife with wide eyes.

Petunia glanced at Vernon apologetically. She wanted to explain to her husband, but Ada spoke before she did.

"I think it's normal for Mrs. Dursley to know what a dementor is. Her sister is a witch."

Petunia's expression became as ugly as eating a dead fly. She had been trying her best to hide herself for so many years, but in fact she remembered everything she knew about the wizarding world.

Vernon opened and closed his mouth, then opened and closed it again.

After a while, he said hoarsely: "If, I mean, those things you are talking about really exist, what on earth are they - these monsters?"

"You can think of them as depression, Mr. Dursley. It feeds on human happiness and other positive emotions, driving people crazy and even losing the courage to live." Ada said, "I don't think it's a struggle now. Times like these. For Harry's sake, I can help your son."

Just then, another owl flew into the kitchen, this was the third owl tonight. What this owl delivered was an official letter, which was the latest punishment notice for Harry.

Ada and Harry didn't know how Dumbledore negotiated with the Ministry of Magic, but the Ministry of Magic changed the previous penalty. A decision will be made until Harry goes to trial on August 12.

The alarm has been lifted, and at least for a short period of time there is no need to worry about the Ministry of Magic's evil intentions again. Dumbledore's personal visit made the Ministry of Magic restrain a lot. Now all that was left was the Dursleys' problem.

"What's wrong?" Vernon said roughly, "Have they sentenced you? Do people like you have the death penalty?"

"I'm going to stand trial," said Harry, who was used to Vernon's rough treatment. Harry was more worried about the trial than Vernon.

Harry is used to it, but Ada has never seen it before!

Ada knew that the Dursleys treated Harry badly, even meanly and abusively. But she never expected that Vernon Dursley would ask this question!

Growing up in such a bad environment, not only did he not turn into a black man, but he was still kind-hearted. He was truly worthy of Harry Potter!

Ask yourself, if the roles were reversed with Harry, she would never be able to be like Harry. Ada would only teach the Dursleys what cruelty was.

For example, right now, Ada really wants to catch a few Dementors from the North Sea, and then throw them all in front of the Dursleys.

"If it's all over, I'd like to have a few words alone with my friend..."

"No!" Vernon roared angrily, "Dudley! I want to know my son... what's wrong with him!"

Vernon questioned and yelled one after another. His rudeness and stupidity not only made Ada angry, but Harry's anger also rose again.

Harry stood up abruptly, holding his wand tightly. The tip of the wand kept spraying sparks, the chandelier flickered, and the furnishings in the kitchen trembled.

Preventing underage wizards from casting spells outside of school is not only to comply with the International Statute of Secrecy, but also for their own sake.

Underage wizards have good or bad mastery of magic. In addition, some underage wizards' magic is not stable enough and their own control ability is weak, so they are prohibited from casting spells outside of school.

Harry's boasting about Maggie before and his current behavior are manifestations of his magic being out of control. If it cannot be well controlled and the magic is allowed to continue to get out of control, it may be dangerous to Harry himself and others.

Ada quickly stood up. She turned Harry's face towards her, looked into Harry's eyes and said softly: "Calm down Harry, calm down! Leave the rest to me, I'm here."

Maybe it was Ada's ring that played a role, maybe it was Ada's green eyes that made Harry feel reassured... In short, Harry calmed down, his hands no longer clenched, the chandelier no longer flickered, and the furnishings in the room No more shaking.

Seeing Harry sitting on the sofa like a deflated rubber ball, Ada walked towards Vernon. She said in a commanding tone: "Sit down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Vernon's eyes became dull and he sat on the ground with a "duang" sound.

Maybe it was because his butt hurt so much, but Vernon suddenly woke up. He struggled to get up, but his body refused to obey. He tried several times but failed to get up from the ground.

"It's you!" Vernon finally recognized who the girl in front of him was. Three summers ago, this girl used the same tone to let herself go.

"If you know me, don't move. If you move, I'll beat you to death!" Ada said, "Now, let's solve the problem. Tonight, the dementors appeared in Little Whinging and attacked Harry and Dudley Dursley. ,Is there a problem?"

Ada's aura was not comparable to Harry's. As soon as she became serious, Vernon immediately became much more honest. Vernon nodded, although the idiot still had no idea what a dementor was.

"Very good. Next, Harry used magic to drive away the Dementors, protecting himself and Dudley Dursley. Harry will be punished for using magic outside of school. Any questions?" Ada continued.

Vernon grunted, making a small, befitting sound like a mosquito. He said: "No."

"Very well. For some special reason, Harry must stay in your house, as much as you may be reluctant to do so. Any questions?"

Vernon didn't speak, nod or shake his head, he just sat on the ground.

"Do you understand, Mr. Dursley? If you understand, just give me a reply." Ada urged softly, looking down at Vernon Dursley who was sitting on the ground.

"Impossible!" Vernon said excitedly, "Here, he is the only one in this place... He is the only one! That thing must have come here because of him. I can't let this kid stay, never!"

Vernon did not dare to say the word "wizard". He was full of fear of wizards, but for the sake of his wife and children, he mustered up all the courage to say "no" resolutely.

Moreover, Vernon also discovered part of the truth about the "Dementor Attack" incident and discovered that all this was not a coincidence and was directed at Harry. Probably because the blood supply to his brain suddenly became sufficient, his smart IQ took over the high ground again.

"It's a pity that we couldn't reach a consensus!" Ada said, "It doesn't matter, it's the same if we change someone else. How about Sirius Black? Harry's murderer godfather?"

As if she had passed her breath in advance, as soon as Ada said Sirius' name, an owl flew into No. 4 Privet Drive. The fourth owl tonight brought a handwritten letter from Sirius.

"I've had enough, let him, let this kid get out of my house with these nasty owls!" Vernon roared hysterically, "And you! I don't care what you are, I will never allow A lunatic hurting my family!”

He ignored the crazy Vernon, who couldn't break free anyway. Ada read the letter first. Sirius wrote on the letter: Stay there! No matter what, you must not leave that house again. I will pick you up as soon as possible.

The letter was short, even shorter than Mr. Weasley's. It was so short that Harry felt that Sirius was too uninterested and his reaction was too bland. He defeated two dementors alone tonight, didn't anyone say "well done" to him?

Fortunately, fortunately, the letter still contained the sentence "I will pick you up as soon as possible", so Harry's mood did not fall to the bottom again.

Vernon was still yelling at Harry to get out of his house and not bring danger to his wife and children.

It was so noisy that people's brains ached. Ada waved her left hand in front of Vernon's eyes, and the world was finally clean.

"Mrs. Dursley, I think you should know Professor Dumbledore, right?" Ada slowly walked towards Petunia and said meaningfully, "Professor Dumbledore asked me to greet you."

Petunia said with a trembling voice: "I don't need his greetings... I don't need..."

Ada tilted her head and motioned for Petunia to look at Vernon. She said, "I don't think you want Professor Dumbledore to visit you in person, do you? Harry, he must stay."

Penny's breathing suddenly became rapid. Dumbledore's name, and Dumbledore's personal visit, terrified Petunia, who looked as if she might faint at any moment.

Petunia's body was still shaking, and she swallowed hard. She said feebly to her husband: "The child - the child must stay here, Vernon."

"Excellent! We have reached a consensus!" said Ada. "Now the only question left is the question of Dudley Dursley."

With that said, Ada sat back on the sofa and untied Vernon's restraints. The freed Vernon was deflated like an old tire, his eyes filled with confusion and confusion.

Ada took off her satchel and put her hand in. Her entire arm was not in the small satchel. After rummaging for a long time, she took out a glass bottle from the small bag. The liquid inside was as golden as the sun.

"Give this to your cousin to drink." Ada said while putting the medicine bottle into Harry's hand.

"This is……"

"The joy potion will make people who drink it feel a strong sense of happiness. The side effect is that they sometimes sing until they can't stop." Ada explained, "But it doesn't matter, I added peppermint to it, so this bottle of potion will not produce any side effects.”

Harry nodded and walked towards Dudley holding the potion.

But Vernon and Petunia were very worried. They didn't want their son to be exposed to anything related to magic, even though the color of the joy potion was beautiful.

"It doesn't matter, you want to drink or not!" Harry was annoyed and said sarcastically, "Just let your Dada continue like this!"

After speaking, Harry threw the bottle angrily, and Petunia subconsciously reached out to catch the bottle.

Husband and wife, you look at me and I look at you, not knowing what to do. They didn't want Dudley to drink the potion, but they also didn't want their son to continue to look like this stupid and stupid person who couldn't even speak well.

After hesitating for a long time, Petunia was finally cruel and poured a whole bottle of golden potion into Dudley's mouth.

In an instant, Dudley's pale face turned rosy, with a happy smile on his face.

The way to deal with dementors is the Patronus Charm, and casting the Patronus Charm requires not only superb skills, but also a happy memory. Therefore, happiness and happiness are inaccessible factors to resist dementors.

This can be regarded as the right medicine. The happiness brought by the joy potion can alleviate the damage caused by the dementors to Dudley to a certain extent.

The matter has basically been resolved, Dudley has also improved, and Ada has successfully completed the task assigned by Dumbledore.

She put her small satchel back on her shoulder and left the Dursley's kitchen.

Harry caught up with Ada on the lawn in front of No. 4 Privet Drive and wanted to see her off. Harry said, "Thank you tonight."

"You're welcome," Ada said, "You know there is an orphanage near here, right?"

"I know." Harry nodded, "It's not too far from Privet Drive."

Ada said: "That's good, I'll live there temporarily. Before Sirius comes to pick you up, if there is any trouble, ask Hedwig to find me there."

"Okay." Harry said, "You should be more careful. It's not peaceful right now."

"I think you can have a heart-to-heart talk with your aunt. She seems to be hiding a lot of secrets. About your mother and Dumbledore."

"I don't think she would be willing to talk to me about this." Harry smiled and said helplessly.

The two waved goodbye and Harry stood at the door of the house and watched Ada walk to the road.

Just when Harry thought Ada would apparate away, Ada suddenly turned around and looked at him.

"Harry! Well done tonight!" Ada said with a smile as she backed up.
