Most of the holiday passed in the blink of an eye, and Xia and Ander were about to celebrate their twelfth birthday.

They had known Sirius for a year, and they had celebrated their birthdays together at this time last year, but this year he seemed to be going abroad with Uncle Alphard.

Sirius said in the letter that Alphard had something to do there, and he would take him there to have some fun.

Because of this, he might not be able to celebrate her birthday in time, but Sirius said he could skip a few days because he also didn't want to miss out on time with his friends.

It would be a lie to say that Xia didn't feel sorry when she received Sirius's letter, but when she thought that he still had an elder who was really kind to him, Xia was sincerely happy for him. Alphard was one of the few Blacks that Sirius liked.

In Xia's opinion, Sirius didn't need to give up his vacation to celebrate her and Ender's birthdays. She would write to him immediately to ask him to give up this idea.

"I know what you mean, but we still have many birthdays to celebrate together, right? And Ander wouldn't want to see you do this."

"So, enjoy your vacation. I look forward to you coming back and telling me what you encountered!"

"And these are the cookies I baked. I think they are much tastier than the ones I made last semester. I hope you like them."

Xia carefully put the letter into the envelope and tied the biscuits and the letter to Hess's leg.

Hess called out to Xia happily twice. She patted the little owl's head and said, "Thank you for your hard work, little one. Help me give it to Sirius."

After eating the food Xia prepared for her, Hess flapped his wings and flew away. Looking at the owl's figure getting smaller and smaller, Xia couldn't help but feel excited.

It was really a pleasure to write letters to Sirius. He always had a lot of things to share with her and could always make a small thing very interesting. I thought his trips abroad would only be more attractive.

Xia stood by the window with her chin in her hand, humming a tuneless song.

The Hopes' home and the Porter Manor are in a great location, with prairie hillsides and lakes, always providing a different view no matter what the weather is like.

Actually, Xia and Ander also invited Lily and Petunia, but Petunia happened to be in another city for a competition during those days, so Lily planned to accompany her. You know, going to school at Hogwarts basically means you can't go home for a whole year, and Lily didn't want to give up the time with Petunia. Besides, Lily, Petunia and Xia have a good relationship, so Xia wouldn't be angry if they didn't come to celebrate her birthday.

Besides, it’s just a birthday, I can celebrate it every year.

So this year, she and Ender's birthday had to be celebrated with James again as before.

"Merlin——"

Ander fell back on the couch and wailed, "Why is it just you?!"

"Isn't having me enough?!" James showed a vulnerable expression, "So... in your heart... I..."

He covered his face and pretended to sob, speaking incoherently, "Where do you put Lemmy?"

"If you're tired of me, I wouldn't blame you, but Remus..." James wiped his non-existent tears with his sleeve and continued: "Oh, poor Remy."

"Come on, brother." Ender reached out and pulled James' hands away from his face. "Remember to cry more realistically next time."

He ruthlessly exposed James' somewhat contrived "Potter Little Theater".

"Of course I won't forget Remus. It's just that every year, no, I see you almost every day when I open my eyes. To be honest, I'm a little tired of it."

Ender rubbed his chin carefully, and James saw that he didn't look fake, so he thought about his words carefully.

Then he dropped a bombshell, "Would you like to try Polyjuice Potion?"

"What?" James' thoughts jumped too much. Even Ender, who grew up with him, couldn't keep up with James's thoughts for a moment. He stared at James blankly, not reacting to what the other party meant.

"I mean--" James drawled, he was thinking.

He quickly went over his idea in his mind, and when he felt it was feasible, he spoke confidently: "We can make a polyjuice potion and become whoever we want. Don't you want to meet Andric Potter or James Hopps?"

James' words were extremely tempting, and Ender had to admit that they were extremely tempting.

The two people looked at each other and knew what the other meant.

This was the scene when Xia went downstairs. Two evil boys were hugging each other's shoulders and smiling darkly. It was obvious that they had no good intentions.

She looked at the two men warily. Generally speaking, they would not play pranks on her. Occasionally, one or two harmless little jokes would be beneficial to their friendship.

only--

This doesn't look like a joke.

Xia asked tentatively, "What's going on? I want to join in, too."

This move could be said to be a good one. An ally is always better than a little unlucky guy, but she didn't know what was waiting for her.

Hearing Xia's words, the evil brothers' smiles became even darker. They laughed sneers, which made Xia feel a little uneasy. She hoped that nothing serious would happen.

I wish...
