Hogwarts: The Savior's Strong Cousin

However, they found that these people seemed to have some kind of secret protection, and few people were willing to expose their behavior.

Just then, one afternoon, Vernon Dursley came to visit unexpectedly. Harry frowned, knowing full well that he was not genuinely concerned.

"Harry, I heard that you have been investigating Dudley's case." Vernon looked concerned.

Harry looked at him warily, "Yes, I want to find out the truth."

"Ah, I am also worried about this matter." Vernon shook his head, "However, we have to give the children some opportunities. After all, they are still young."

Harry didn't agree with it, but he didn't show it. Vernon's hypocritical consolation made him more determined to reveal the truth.

"Hello, Aunt." Vernon turned to Petunia with a sympathetic look. "I know you must be very sad, but you have to be strong."

Petunia remained silent, her eyes fixed on Dudley, filled with endless pain.

"He'll be fine, trust me." Vernon consoled him.

Harry watched this scene, his heart filled with dissatisfaction and anger. He knew that Vernon was just pretending and didn't really care about Dudley's safety. He decided to continue working hard to prevent those who bullied Dudley from going unpunished.

As night fell, the Hogwarts campus seemed particularly quiet. Harry was walking alone on his way back to the Gryffindor dormitory, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. Suddenly, a deep voice sounded in his ears.

"Harry..."

Harry looked up and saw a familiar figure standing in a corner of the campus. It was a person wearing a black robe, with long hair draped over his shoulders, and his figure seemed to blend into the night.

"Who's there?" Harry called out warily.

The man in black robes took a step closer, revealing a familiar face. This was the mysterious guardian of the magic school, Headmaster Albus Dumbledore.

"Harry, I came to see you." Dumbledore smiled.

Harry was pleasantly surprised and he hurried forward. "Principal, why are you here? What's the matter?"

Dumbledore said with a serious expression, "I heard about Dudley. I came to see what happened."

Harry nodded silently, grateful for the headmaster's concern. He followed Dumbledore to the Gryffindor dormitory and told him in detail about Dudley being pushed down the stairs and his own investigation.

Dumbledore paused for a moment, then said, "Harry, you have done well. But be careful not to put yourself in danger."

Harry nodded, knowing that the headmaster was reminding him to stay calm. However, his heart was still burning with a desire for justice.

When they arrived at the Gryffindor dormitory, Dumbledore stared at Petunia with a look of concern on his face.

"Mrs. Petunia, I heard about Dudley's situation, and I'm very sad about it." Dumbledore's voice was gentle and kind.

Petunia looked up, tears in her eyes. "Thank you, Headmaster Dumbledore."

"We will do our best to find out the truth," Dumbledore comforted.

Vernon watched indifferently from the side without saying a word. His expression was still condescending, as if he was dissatisfied with Dumbledore's appearance.

Harry noticed all this and couldn't help but feel angry at Vernon's attitude. However, he knew that the key now was to continue to work hard to find clues and find out the real culprit who bullied Dudley.

Encouraged by Headmaster Dumbledore, Harry continued his investigation. Together with Hermione and Ron, he carefully searched every corner of the school, trying to find evidence related to the bullying of Dudley. However, they encountered more difficulties than they had imagined. Many students were unwilling to tell the truth or covered up the facts.

Just when the investigation reached a deadlock, a student named Weasley found Harry privately.

"Harry, I know you are investigating Dudley's case." Weasley said seriously, "I have some information that may be able to help you."

Harry's eyes flickered with hope, "Please tell me."

Weasley whispered, "I heard that a group of students gathered in the school basement. They seem to be related to those who bullied Dudley."

Harry's heart moved. This might be a breakthrough. "Do you know their specific whereabouts?"

Weasley shook his head, "I just heard about it. They are very secretive."

Harry decided to go to the basement to investigate immediately. When night fell, he quietly came to the basement area. The silent corridor was empty, with only a faint light shining through.

He walked cautiously down the corridor and heard low whispers. He moved closer to the wall, trying to catch the source of the sound.

"…Dudley is such a loser."

"Yeah, he should have disappeared earlier."

Harry felt a surge of anger; he recognized the voices as those of the people who had bullied Dudley.

"Do you think you are so great?" Harry suddenly appeared in front of them.

They were startled and looked at each other, at a loss as to what to do.

"Harry Potter!" one of the students said through gritted teeth, "What are you doing here again?"

"I'm here to find out your true colors!" Harry said coldly, "You bullied Dudley, and now he's lying in bed unconscious!"

Their expressions became tense, but they still refused to admit it.

"You think you can get away with this?" Harry stared at them. "I will reveal your true identity."

Suddenly, one of the students grabbed the nearby wand and pointed it at Harry.

"Harry, you'd better shut up!" he threatened.

Harry stood in the basement, facing the students who bullied Dudley, his eyes flashing with determination and anger. He was not afraid of the wands in their hands, and his heart was only determined to seek justice for Dudley.

"Do you think you can cover up your crimes with a wand?" Harry said coldly, "I will let everyone know your true colors."

The students looked at each other, and were clearly beginning to panic. However, one of them still stood up and pointed at Harry.

"Harry, stop meddling in other people's business!" he said in an aggressive voice.

Harry's eyes were firm, "You hurt my cousin, I will never let you go."

Suddenly, footsteps sounded at the basement door, and Vernon Dursley appeared at the door, his eyes cold and unpredictable.

"What's going on?" Vernon's voice was low and stern.

The students immediately stopped what they were doing, their faces showing fear. They hurriedly hid their wands, and were very nervous about Vernon's arrival.

"Mr. Vernon, we...we're just chatting here." One of the students explained stutteringly.

Vernon's eyes scanned the room and then landed on Harry. "Harry, why are you here?"
