HP solves the mystery

Their town plans were suspended, and the Basilisk could only stare out the window in boredom.

Severus felt uncomfortable looking at Harry's face that resembled his father's.

During the Screaming Shack incident, no matter what Porter's psychology was, he took action to save him in the end.

As for revenge, when you know that the foursome will all die in the end, will you still dirty your hands for killing?

All he could do was watch them go to their own destiny. The reminder to Lily was just to give him a reason not to help.

But now that the Potters are dead, Harry has not been marked, and the Death Eaters have made the wizarding world's economy develop rapidly, who knows what will happen in the future.

Severus shook his head and sighed, then took his wand and went to pack Harry's luggage.

Regarding Harry's move in, Tom's initial indifference turned into rejection. As for feeling guilty? Maybe a little, but more than one or two people died on his way to becoming the Dark Lord.

"That's my bed!"

"That's my toy!"

"That's my little motorcycle!"

"Ah, my snake...forget it, you can play with it as you like..."

Tom looked at Harry's tearful eyes and waved his hands impatiently. As an adult, he couldn't get angry with a child.

The basilisk that was suddenly caught vomited and was completely out of sorts.

Severus watched their interaction in amusement, brought out the pear soup specially cooked for Tom, and patted his head happily.

"Our Tom is a generous boy, but if you really don't want to, you have to be brave enough to say it out loud." Although the young man felt sorry for Harry, he couldn't feel wronged by his own child.

Tom's depressed mood improved after hearing this. He drank the sweet pear soup in one go and ran over to take his toys and the basilisk back from Harry's hands.

"If you dare to cry, I'll fetch Mrs. Colley's dog from downstairs!" He threatened Harry with his eyes wide open.

Harry bit his lip, seeing that the only adult in the room was not there, and being afraid of the big dog downstairs, he could only hold back his tears.

Tom clapped his hands with satisfaction and directed him to put away the messed up toys. After he apologized to the basilisk, he was allowed to sit in the corner of the sofa and watch TV.

Harry hugged his knees with his short hands and watched the cartoon with tears in his eyes. He missed his aunt.

[Hiss, Tom, wouldn't it be good for us to do this? He looks like he's about to cry. 】Although the basilisk said so, he had already skillfully changed the TV channel.

"Watch TV and I'll ask Sev to make steamed tofu with minced meat for you tonight." Tom promised Harry. In fact, he had already asked the young man what to eat for dinner.

Harry's eyes lit up when he heard this, he licked his lips and nodded heavily.

When he was waiting for dinner in the evening, he took a bite of food and glanced at Tom with a starry look on his face.

When he was at home, he ate whatever his aunt did, even the unpalatable broccoli. But at Uncle Sif's house, Brother Tom could actually choose what he ate. It was really amazing!

Severus didn't know about the lawsuit between them, so he smiled and asked Tom to eat more carrots, which would be good for his eyesight.

Brother Tom, who was admired by Harry, frowned and ate it, and he decided to blacklist the carrots, well, not even the carrots made by Severus.

Harry was very well-behaved in the next few days. Severus also took them to Diagon Alley. Harry got a cloud bed floating one meter above the ground. He liked it very much.

In the blink of an eye, a week was up. Petunia brought Vernon to move things, and little Dudley was left in the care of his grandparents for a day.

"Thank you Severus, Lupine apologized for scaring us. We negotiated and he can take Harry out to play one day a week." Petunia said the result, holding Harry and weighing it. I noticed he was a little heavier.

"As long as it's settled, you can ask Dumbledore about anything about Harry in the future." Severus nodded and replied.

Petunia remembered Lupine's words about overturning the case for the man in Azkaban, and her eyes stayed on the young man for a little longer.

"how?"

"That murderer in Azkaban...if the case is overturned..."

"It'll be okay, Dumbledore will take care of it."

"hope so."

Vernon came up and asked Petunia to ride home, his rough voice breaking the silence in the room.

"Well, goodbye Severus." Petunia took a deep breath and said slowly.

Severus looked at the little chubby boy waving in her arms, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Goodbye."

When everything calmed down, the basilisk jumped up again and said it wanted to go out to play.

The young man thought of Harry's terrible father who was the leader of the "Trouble-Taking Four", and also thought of the missing Voldemort. He rubbed his chin and thought about whether he should move to China, but in China, he could make money by making potions. Did you get the money?

Tom noticed the brooding young man out of the corner of his eye. He wondered when he would take them to a small town for vacation. He had wanted to go back for a long time.

On a sunny morning, Severus held Tom's hand, and Tom had a basilisk wrapped around his hand. The family of three walked slowly down the street.

They arrived in the town yesterday afternoon. After resting for a night to recuperate, they ate local specialties while exploring.

Tom finished the fried eggs and sausages on the plate with an expressionless face. Looking at the young man who kept taking pictures, he almost wanted to turn away and leave.

He was really annoyed. No matter what he did, he had to take pictures first. Even when he went boating, he had to say "yeah".

"Want to go to the water park? Tom?" Severus finally thought of this after taking photos for a long time.

Before Tom could answer, the basilisk on his wrist started yelling.

[I want to go, I want to eat grilled sausages, I want to eat grilled fish! Can you find a place where I can appear next time you go out? 】The basilisk looked very excited. When he spoke, his voice trailed off, and he was very dissatisfied with them for ignoring him.

Severus has always felt that the appetite of the basilisk is a mystery. According to the habits of snakes, it takes a long time to digest the prey into the stomach, and there is no need to eat during this period. However, Haierbo has been eating and eating, and it has not stopped for half a day. .

If the basilisk knew what he was thinking, it would definitely tell him that what it needed was energy. If it relied on eating to maintain its strength, then the food in the Forbidden Forest would have been eaten long ago, and it was just eating to satisfy its cravings.

However, the young man didn't know this and could only silently take out the Galleons.

Perhaps because the basilisk was too resentful, Tom touched its head and suggested to the young man that they go to the reservoir to play.

"Reservoir? No, Tom, the reservoir is too dangerous for you." Severus shook his head. He could let the basilisk go, but the five-year-old boy should stay by his side.

The basilisk cast a helpless look and happily asked the young man to take him to the reservoir.

But its dream soon broke, and they were taken to a resort with a large lake.

"Let's play here, Haierbo. When Tom gets older, he can play with you." The young man comforted the Basilisk with a smile, got up and took out the barbecue stove, took out the sausages that the Basilisk liked and started roasting it.

"Oh, my God, for the sake of the sausage, okay," the basilisk muttered, and pestered Tom to go swimming in the lake.

Tom didn't care where he went to play. He put on his swimming trunks, took the little yellow duck swimming ring specially bought by the young man, and jumped into the lake with a splash. The splashing water told the children nearby that a new person had arrived.

The resort is not very big, but because there is a strange mountain in the distance, many people come to climb the mountain and stay overnight, which also brings some economic benefits to the locals.

Severus rented a house next door to a family of four who were traveling. The couple also had a barbecue outside and their two children swam in the lake.

"Is that boy your child? You look so much alike." The husband of a family of four drank beer and chatted with him. "Are you also traveling with your child? Well, I think it's better to be at home. Well, at least you can watch the football game." The husband seemed to be complaining, but since his wife was present, he only dared to complain in a low voice.

Severus shook his head when he heard this, "That's not my child, that's my brother."

Does he look that old?

"Oh, no wonder it's so similar." The man didn't feel embarrassed at all that he had made a mistake. He took a sip of wine and stared in the direction of the lake in a daze.

After a while, the man continued to speak.

"Have you heard of the Camp Killer? Oh. Just kidding, it was a movie, and it was also in a holiday camp, but the teacher brought the students there." The man showed a lewd smile and talked about the young lovers at the camp. The tragic death, and the murderer wearing a mask.

"I think that murderer must be a staunch Christian, otherwise why would he always destroy other people's good deeds." The man said, smacking his lips, as if he was reminiscing about the plot of the movie.

Severus was speechless after hearing this. A murderer didn't need any motive to kill, but it seemed like he had heard this story somewhere.

"It seems that you were deeply impressed by that movie, right? You didn't even come to help move the things!" The man's wife wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, twisted her husband's ears and dragged him back. Before she started walking, she even yelled at the young man. He smiled apologetically.

After the couple left, several groups of people came in one after another, all traveling with their families, and the chattering of children suddenly filled the villa.

Because of Tom's exquisite appearance and outstanding temperament, he was surrounded by children around him, and everyone wanted to say a few words to him.

[Hiss, you are so welcome, where is my other half. 】The basilisk swimming not far away looked at it with sour eyes. It dived to the bottom of the lake and swallowed several big fish in one go to feel better.

Tom was so envious of him that he could kill a fly with his frown.

However, when this expression appears on the face of a five-year-old child, it will only make people feel cute and funny.

When the older boys saw that a girl's attention was attracted by a child, they felt humiliated and at the same time devastated. They sighed that their charm was not as good as that of a child, so they could only sulky secretly.

Severus baked something and put it on the folding table, letting them come back to eat when they were hungry, and then lay down under the umbrella.

The basilisk was so greedy that it swam back as soon as it heard the call, and then started a crazy meal-showing mode. Within a few minutes, everything on the table went into its stomach.

The young man pushed up his sunglasses and thought that it was a good thing that he had cast an ignoring spell on the basilisk, otherwise it wouldn't be surprising to anyone who saw the movement.

[Hiss, it’s delicious, but there’s just too little. Severus, when can I go to the Forbidden Forest? I want to eat a big buffalo. 】The basilisk took a sip of ice-cold plum juice and asked anxiously.

Severus did not answer immediately, but put some sunscreen on the basilisk and let it lie aside to rest.

"Helbo, this is a serious question. As long as you can guarantee not to take Tom there and protect his safety, you can go to the Forbidden Forest." The young man's words are not unreasonable. You must know that it will take him the first time. The kitten was smuggled out in a suitcase.

The basilisk smiled awkwardly after hearing this. Who hasn't been young yet?

[Then I'd better stay at home, hey, there's no rush to go to the Forbidden Forest. 】

Severus shrugged helplessly, he didn't stop him.

When Tom finally broke free from the crowd of children, what he saw when he returned to the wooden house was a scene of one person and one snake leisurely sunbathing.

His cheeks bulged, he turned around and ran into the house to change into clean pants, then walked over and threw the basilisk at his feet, and lay down next to the young man.

The basilisk was sleeping soundly and did not react when it was thrown out. It just curled up and continued to sleep.

Severus felt the movement beside him, patted the child's head gently, and then covered his belly with a blanket.

By the time they woke up, the sun was already setting, and the surrounding families who were visiting were planning to hold a bonfire party.

"Are you going to take your child? There is roast venison and beef. You can take him to eat some." reminded the wife of the man next door, followed by a seven-year-old girl.

Severus heard this and looked at Tom, who shook his head in rejection.

"Thank you, ma'am. My brother and I won't be attending. I wish you a good time." He said with a smile.

"Well, that's a pity. They went to hunt the deer in the woods today, and it's fresh." She said regretfully, and then left with her child.

Hearing this, the young man looked at the dense woods behind him. If there were wild deer in it, then there should be wolves too, right? he thought uncertainly.

Perhaps seeing something was wrong with the young man, Tom pulled his hand and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Sev, something doesn't look right with you."

Severus shook his head and pulled Tom into the cabin. He hoped that his worries were unnecessary. The villa should have security measures, right?

Not far from the wooden house, a pair of green eyes stared at the people beside the campfire, their eyes full of malice.

Severus was a little uneasy, as if something bad was going to happen, but he had no clue, and the only thing he could do was to pull out his gun and wand.

He stuffed Tom with a switchblade and ordered the basilisk not to leave Tom's side. If it encountered danger, it would rush up and bite the enemy to death.

Tom and the Basilisk nodded hurriedly, but they felt that the young man was too alert.

When the bonfire party ends, the moon hangs high in the sky, and everything becomes silent.

Until a shrill scream pierced the sky, and the sleeping young man jumped up from the bed, his premonition came true.
