Gin and Lisha

Diagon Alley.

The annual back-to-school season makes this narrow alley even more crowded. There are often scenes of parents and children being washed away by people, or the children's newly bought pets being crowded out.

But no matter adults or children, the smile on the face has not changed for hundreds of years.

At this time, the benefits of being accompanied by a seemingly dangerous man and a vicious black dog will appear. At least the crowd will subconsciously keep a certain distance from them.

Penelope had an appointment with her friend, and soon after she came to Diagon Alley, she separated from her brother. With Gin and Dahei taking care of Lixia, she felt more at ease.

The remaining three men (one in the form of a child and one in the form of a dog) walked the streets bored.

Shenshui Lixia took the purchase list: "I'm still short of "Standard Spells, Level [-]". Although I don't want to buy Lockhart's book, I'm afraid we have to go to Lihen Bookstore for the spell book."

"Then go." Gin has always been a practical man, and will never be swayed by emotions. He doesn't have as deep resistance to bookstores and Lockhart as Shenshui Lisha.

"...Okay." Even if you don't like the embroidered pillow, you can't delay the formal study. The second-hand book you bought may have missing pages or be altered by the previous user. You should buy a new one. good.

Sirius Black's wanted rewards were posted in front of many shops on the street, and the big black dog followed behind them sullenly, while glancing at the gin gloomily.

This guy also escaped from Azkaban, but he doesn't have a warrant!

As if knowing what Sirius was thinking, Shenshui Lixia touched Dahei's head: "Don't be sad, Gin can leave a fake corpse, but you can't, don't you want to bear the crimes that don't belong to you? Azkaban?"

In that case, Sirius would never be able to stay with his godson aboveboard.

What's more, Peter Pettigrew is still at large. Even if Sirius himself doesn't care about the crime, he can't just watch Harry regard the pusher who caused his parents' death as a martyr and a hero, right?

"Wow!" Dahei yelled twice angrily.

Deepwater Lisha patted it on the head again: "If you see Potter and Weasley later, you can't become a human just because of excitement."

"Wow!" Da Hei opened his two big eyes eagerly, looking back and forth on the street expectantly.

There are not a few wizarding families who choose to come to Diagon Alley to buy things today. Shenshui Lixia learned through Penello that the Weasleys are also coming today, so they also decided to come to London today.

They struggled to squeeze towards the Lihen Bookstore, and saw Hagrid, a half-giant who stood out from the crowd, and a few children beside Hagrid were chirping.

Ron Weasley explained to his tall friend: "It's Harry's uncle and aunt who are so hateful, they don't give him food, and they nail the windows so that Hedwig can't send us letters! Muggles have them too. It's illegal imprisonment, isn't it?"

"I... maybe there is, I don't know." Poor Rubeus Hagrid, he has been the keykeeper at Hogwarts for so many years, and he really hasn't studied Muggle law.

"Harry, what do you think?" Ron looked at his black-haired friend who was somewhat malnourished.

Harry laughed dryly: "Yes, there are, but the police probably won't accept this kind of case. From outsiders' perspective, my uncle and aunt are just disciplining a bad boy who is fostered in their home and has a bad conduct...Forget it Not illegally imprisoned."

"So if we don't save Harry, even if he starves to death, no one will give him justice!" The freckles on Ron's face, which turned red with anger, became more obvious.

"But Dumbledore said it was best for Harry to be with his family when he was on holiday -" said Hagrid hesitantly.

"Hagrid, we can't stick to the old rules. What if Harry's family wants to harm him? I don't think it will help Harry's growth." Ron's face was obviously disapproving, but when he thought of this, Deng What Bulidore said was also a bit hesitant, "...Maybe Professor Dumbledore was too busy, he didn't go to confirm the character of Harry's only relative."

"...Maybe." Harry was also a little unhappy.

No one can get a letter from a friend during the summer vacation, he is not allowed to continue to go to school, and he almost killed his owl Hedwig... This mood is not beautiful no matter what.

Oh, and there's that inexplicable house-elf who calls himself Dobby.

Harry Potter felt that his first-year summer vacation was the worst one he ever had, bar none.

"Wow! Woah, woof, woof!"

In the crowd, a big black dog sprang out like lightning, and flew 30 meters in a flash. Before everyone could react, it came to Harry and the others, and then threw Ron down in one breath. .

"What the hell is going on with this?!" Ron was thrown down by the black dog without warning, and was knocked on the back of the head, making him dizzy.

In a daze, he saw the head of the big dog approaching, and he thought that the dog would bite off his nose...

However, the dog just grabbed a white-haired mouse from his collar and pulled it out.

The mouse probably has never been treated like this. The mouse, which sleeps for 12 and a half hours out of 11 hours a day, suddenly becomes extremely frightened. Some wizards drew their wands, trying to free the mouse from the mad dog's mouth.

Unexpectedly, there was already a person ahead of everyone else, and accurately cast a revealing spell specially used for Animagus on the mouse.

In an instant, the mouse's body became bigger and bigger like an inflated balloon, its four paws turned into human limbs, and its yellow and white fur turned into hair of the same color...

When he first became a human, the mouse was still a little confused, and habitually squeaked twice. When he found that the people around him looked at him differently, he panicked and wanted to slip away as soon as he rolled his eyes. Walk.

"It's all petrified."

The voice was languid but clear, and it held the mouse-turned-man in place before he tried to escape.

It took the crowd a little time to digest what happened in the blink of an eye, and then someone recognized the petrified man.

"My God, wasn't he Peter Pettigrew who was killed by Sirius Black!"

"Is he still alive and protected by the Ministry of Magic?"

"No, didn't you see just now, a big dog ripped him out of a child, Peter Pettigrew is an unregistered Animagus!"

"So, he's not dead, but he doesn't dare to appear in public..."

People's imagination is great. Within half an hour, everyone basically guessed the truth. When it comes to Sirius Black's recent escape from prison, they all feel that there must be a connection.

Even the rushing Aurors who took Pettigrew away didn't lessen the enthusiasm for the conversation.

"I'm sorry... I, my dog ​​has caused you trouble..." Shenshui Lixia hugged the big black dog vigorously, with an apologetic expression on his face.

The dog was about half his height, but without the slightest sense of trouble, was wagging its tail happily and trying to lick Harry.

Harry was actually not too fond of dogs, because Hagrid had a big dog named Fang, and that dog would often spit on him and Ron.

But this black dog is different, looking at him with gentle eyes.Harry thought to himself, he didn't know why he could see tender emotion in a dog's eyes, but at least he could be sure that the dog didn't mean anything to him.

Ron was still in a daze. The pet he had finally inherited from his brother turned into a fat and ugly man in the blink of an eye. This would definitely become a shadow of his childhood.

As Harry comforted his pal, he sneaked two handfuls of the dog's dark, slippery fur - all thanks to the Clearwater siblings, who took less than two weeks to shed the skinny dog Keep it smooth and smooth.

The Weasleys and Hermione who came later had already told Harry about Sirius and Peter Pettigrew. Even though Harry was young, he already had his own point of view to measure things, and even sometimes Quite mature, he judged from what these people told him that the man named Sirius was probably wronged.

Peter Pettigrew was the most cowardly and non-existent of the foursome back then. Harry was the first to not believe that he would sacrifice himself to fight against Sirius.

Harry knew all too well that there was a presence in his cousin Dudley and among those small groups that were popular on campus, like Peel flattering Dudley, he would only help Dudley bully himself, even if he knew Dudley was wrong.

Once, Peel deliberately put on a sympathetic look to Harry, saying that he was willing to reconcile with Harry and listen to his complaints.As a result, after Harry finished his bitterness, he turned around and Peel repeated the bad things he said about Dudley to Dudley, causing him to be chased and beaten by Dudley for several days, while Peel watched with relish. He looked like he was running around with his head in his arms.

If Sirius Black is really a Death Eater, then the most likely thing Peter Pettigrew did was to fall to Voldemort's side when threatened, and betray Harry's family's information to Voldemort.

In fact, one of Sirius and Pettigrew Peter did betray the information. Even if Sirius pleaded not guilty to his crime, but Peter Pettigrew, Sirius has been imprisoned in Azkaban, how can he be a hero? Need to hide?

And his hiding place is Ron's house?

Pettigrew Peter and Ron's fathers know each other!Why didn't he tell Arthur Weasley that he existed, and pretend he was dead?

Although the big black dog made his friend Ron lose his pet, Harry is still very grateful to the black dog.

Quietly, Harry pinched the black dog's paw, and was accidentally slobbered by the latter's enthusiasm.

The author has something to say:

Harry: I also want a dog so loyal and lovely...

Shenshui Lixia: This one belongs to your family, come and take it away!

Dahei: Woof!
