[HP] Illusion

This time travel can explain one thing to a certain extent, the same memory can travel repeatedly.

——But didn’t it work before?Why is it possible this time?

Just imagine, if he can really travel repeatedly, then he can do more things.There must be some rules that he doesn't know!He had to remember this point.

Just when Harry was as excited as if he had discovered a new world, Kreacher appeared in front of him with the food he wanted.

"Master." He respectfully put the food on the table. "Please enjoy."

"Kreacher, you said just now that Hagrid and the principal were looking for me? Did they say it was because of something?" Harry asked when Kreacher bowed and was about to leave.

"Old Kreacher doesn't know," Kreacher screamed in his old hoarse voice, "They came to old Kreacher and asked where the master was, and old Kreacher didn't know where the master was..." After saying that, he He slammed directly towards the cabinet door beside him.

"Stop, Kreacher." Harry rubbed his forehead, "I see, I will tell you if I leave in the future, and I will ask the principal for leave."

Kreacher's tears rolled down from the deeply sunken eye sockets, slid over the wrinkled skin, and landed on the dirty-looking napkin around his body. Before he had time to call a stop, he slammed his head hard at the side cabinet.

Harry: "..."

Old Kreacher exerted so much force that the things placed on the cabinet were basically unable to withstand the shaking from his strength, and many of them began to crumble with the shaking of the cabinet.

"Stop—" Just as Harry yelled loudly, an old object placed on the cabinet moved to the edge overwhelmed, and then swayed with Kreacher's sudden stop. regain its center of gravity—

Of course, Kreacher also saw the ancient hourglass that was about to fall towards the ground. Although he was old, his reaction was still very fast. Edge stopped.

Harry found his heart beating almost to his throat.

"Master!" Kreacher screamed.Because of the trouble, he kept saying sorry, which made Harry extremely headache.

"It's okay, just give me the hourglass, and I'll take a look." It was broken in the first place, and it didn't really fall on the ground just now, but it still needs to be checked for damage, so that you can feel more at ease.

Kreacher carefully handed the hourglass to Harry. He lowered his head and kept shaking his body. From time to time, he secretly raised his head to look at Harry. At this time, he could not disturb the master, and could only wait for the master to check it before punishing him. .

Harry carefully inspected this rather exquisite hourglass, the patterns on it have not been scratched, and the edge of the crystal clear container has no cracks, very good, etc.

Something is wrong.

"Kreacher," Harry said suddenly.

"Yes, Master." Kreacher bent his rickety body deeply, quietly waiting for Harry's sentence.

"You go back first." Harry ordered casually.

Kreacher stared at Harry not moving, so Harry waved him away again.

After being dazed for a while, Harry suddenly realized: "Didn't you fall?" Even if you fell, it should be recoverable, "You can leave now."

Kreacher insisted on not moving, as if he was waiting for Harry's punishment.

Harry: "..." What's the matter?

Suddenly, Harry started to pretend to take off his shoes, and threatened in a bad mood: "If you don't leave, I'll take off the socks for you right now."

Kreacher screamed and immediately disappeared into thin air.

Finally...it was quiet again.Harry pressed his forehead with a headache, and after closing his eyes for a short while to rest his mind, he quickly moved the food in front of him aside, and looked carefully at the hourglass in his hand again.

where is wrong?

This hourglass is not much different from the modern hourglass, because it is made by a goblin with exquisite craftsmanship, so the pattern on the metal shell is extremely complicated and delicate, and the ingenious carving also makes the whole hourglass look particularly delicate, so even if it has been discovered before It didn't work, and Harry still had it adorned in his office as a work of art.

But, is this thing really unusable?It seems... that's not the case.

This 1000-year-old hourglass actually has the most basic prototype of a modern hourglass, with upper and lower containers and a thin neck in the middle.Before, Harry took the end with sand as the front—he had looked at the hourglass many times at that time, and he clearly remembered that there was a not too obvious, but rather distorted but distorted part hidden in the fine pattern of the hourglass shell. Very beautiful goblin glyph symbol.Although it was symmetrical up and down, he didn't find the same symbol on the other side of the hourglass.

It stands to reason that the sand in the hourglass is fine, white and dry. If the sand in the middle is normal, the hourglass can still be used.But at that time, no matter what he did, the hourglass always stayed on top and never fell, so he also thought that this thing must be broken.

Because it was placed on the cabinet like this before, he failed to notice this detail.

Harry took a closer look, and now more than half of the sand in the container has fallen on the container at the end without the symbol. If you look carefully at the neck of the upper half of the bottle, you can still see that there is faintly fine sand that has not leaked out. , if you just glance at it like this, it is indeed easy to ignore it.

Harry thought very unreliably - it couldn't be because it was blocked in the middle before, and it was leaked because of Kreacher's bump, right?But anyone who has played with the hourglass knows that because of the bottleneck in the middle of the hourglass, no matter how much you fiddle with it, the time for the sand to leak is fixed, neither fast nor slow. It's so strange that most of the sand can be leaked down.

It seems that there is only one explanation, this thing is indeed normal.

It's so weird.

For some reason, Harry began to feel that his ability to travel to that world must be related to this hourglass.

Even though he had read the memory of that night, Helena was indeed not suspicious, but the sudden act of sending these two things was itself very suspicious, right?

If there is, what about the key that comes with the hourglass? Is there something wrong with it?

No, he had to talk to Helena.

Thinking of this, Harry completely ignored the food on the table, and directly took out the key from the bottom of the drawer.

That's right, the pattern of the key also has the same elf symbol as on the hourglass.

Harry felt he had uncovered a small corner of the truth.

When they found Helena, Helena was on the astronomy tower with the bloody Barrow. It seemed that the two ghosts were confronting each other, and their expressions didn't relax in the slightest.

"Excuse me." Harry was very anxious. When he came up, he ran all the way, and when he stopped, he began to pant heavily. At this time, he naturally didn't care whether he interrupted the undercurrent of their flirting. "Helena, can you come with me? I'm sorry Barrow, I'm really in a hurry..."

Helena glanced at Harry, but didn't move.

Bloody Barrow glanced at Harry blankly, nodded, and then slowly fell from the railing on the top floor.

"What's the matter?" At this moment, Helena looked at Harry puzzled, "Tell me."

"This." Harry took out the hourglass and the key, "Can they..."

His voice stopped suddenly, he didn't know if he should say that he could travel to other time and space.

"What can you do?" Did Helena's expression change a bit, as if she was talking about something unimportant.

Harry thought about it, and asked another way: "What function did they have before, is this hourglass a time-turner..." He stopped again because he remembered that there was also an hourglass on the Time-Turner.

The more Harry thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and then he took a deep breath, "Does this hourglass have the same function as the time-turner in the Ministry of Magic, such as going back in time?"

At this time, Helena's expression suddenly relaxed a little, her beautiful big eyes were round, and she looked quite stunned, but Harry heard her say this sentence: "Could it be that you went back to the past? "

Harry carefully observed her expression, and indeed couldn't find any clues, but Harry just felt that something was wrong.

"How did you go back, didn't you hear that all the time converters have been destroyed?" Helena continued to ask.

"Helena, can you answer me, this thing... What was the function of this hourglass and the key before?" Looking at the ghost pretending to be innocent, Harry couldn't help gnashing his teeth.

The Ravenclaw ghost pretended to think for a while, then corrected her expression, she raised her chin and said, "I'm sorry, I really don't remember, you know, I have already spent time in Hogwarts Almost 1000 years ago, it’s normal that I don’t remember how this gadget works.”

Harry: "..."

He seemed to have discovered something—Helena was probably really playing dead.

"However," just when Harry was about to ask, Helena stared at Harry's emerald green eyes, her voice suddenly became serious, and she said almost at a word-by-word speed, "this thing The hourglass is originally an hourglass, maybe it has something to do with time, didn’t you say it was broken before? In fact, this thing has a history of thousands of years, and no one knows whether it can still be used. You know, it is now broken It belongs to you, so how you want to study or use it is your business, and other things have nothing to do with others."

When Harry looked at Helena silently, she suddenly patted her head, "Actually, these things can be shrunk. They used to be part of the pendant, but the necklace part has been lost."

Harry: "..."

Would people thousands of years ago use hourglasses and keys as pendants?Showing is unconscionable unless...

They are made smaller for portability.There is only one possibility.

He doesn't believe in pendants or anything like that.

Harry stared at the ghost who left him with a handsome back after he finished speaking, and suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a huge pit.

——Research by yourself, use by yourself, and have nothing to do with others?

—The ghost is not a person, is it?

At the end, Helena's apparently suggestive words made Harry, who was standing alone on the tower blowing a breeze, look thoughtfully at the exquisite key and hourglass in his hand.

After a while, Harry put both of these things into his interspatial pocket.

He no longer had the mind to investigate whether the ghost of Ravenclaw had anything to do with this matter, because he had to confirm another matter.

☆☆☆

Despite Harry's anxiety, he didn't immediately enter the Pensieve again.

He returned to the office and ate the food that Kreacher brought in one gulp, then took a good bath, and then went to find McGonagall and Hagrid in good spirits.It was late when he returned from Hagrid's, and Harry fell asleep almost as soon as his head hit the pillow.

At any time, the efficiency is much higher when you are energetic than when you are tired. Although Harry changed the bed in that house into the bed he is used to, it is not the original after all, and it is more convenient to return to the bedroom that really belongs to him. Be comfortable.

But only a few.In fact, Harry's sleep quality was not high enough to be classified as poor in that new room.After Harry got up, he still stuffed a lot of his personal items into the space bag.

He called Kreacher over, asked him to prepare a lot of food for himself, and told him that he had to go out.

Of course, Kreacher couldn't shake his master's decision, but he still couldn't stop his nagging mouth.

"Master, are you going back to No. 12, Grimmauld Place? Can you take Old Kreacher with you? Old Kreacher also wants to go back and have a look..."

"I'm not going home," Harry couldn't help but interrupted, "Just stay at Hogwarts, and I will take you back when I have a chance."

Harry regretted it after saying this, because Kreacher once again showed his strong desire to hit the wall or the cabinet, but after the last time, Kreacher restrained it very well, and hit the cabinet and the floor The common self-mutilation behaviors of house-elves, such as banging against walls and pinching their heads against doors, have been banned by Harry's orders.Kreacher is a very obedient house-elf, and of course he carries it out perfectly.

After Kreacher was dismissed, Harry seriously considered the possibility of returning home in the future. In the past three years, he devoted almost all of his vacations to Hogwarts, even the summer vacation—he had considered it when he was in school. The possibility of not going back to the Dursleys for the summer, something that wasn't done then, is done now, because the professors' summer break isn't affected by everyone needing to leave school

Let's move back during the summer vacation. Although the Pensieve is the property of Hogwarts, he borrowed it and it is in his hands now. As long as he does not damage it and promises to return it intact, it should be fine, right?Thinking so, Harry put on the Invisibility Cloak, and with the bulging interspatial bag, he fell towards the Pensieve.

Sure enough, it fell on the fixed refresh point on the pebble path just now.

But this time was a little different from last time.

It seems that apart from the location being the same, other elements are not the same, and it doesn't seem to be so particular——

For example, the first time was three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the last time was one or two o'clock in the afternoon, and this time it was past four o'clock.

Another example is that the first time the temperature was quite warm, the second time was relatively hot because it was still early, and this time, there was not much sunlight in the sky, the sun was already setting little by little, covered by thick clouds covered up.The weather is fine, cool and comfortable, and it does seem suitable to go out and play.

Harry walked to the side of the path, waiting for Lily and Petunia to pass by.

——It should be like this, right?

Sure enough, he saw Lily and Petunia again, both of them were in a good mood, and even Petunia followed Lily hopping forward.The young man also heard Lily mentioning him, and it sounded like it was because Lily had gone to his house not long ago to look for him and couldn't find him, and she was talking about it now, but Lily soon noticed that Petunia didn't seem very happy , so she also stopped talking.

Harry suddenly had a feeling that he didn't like Aunt Petunia when she was so young, no wonder he treated him so badly...

Destiny has been decided so early, and things that have been ingrained for a long time are indeed difficult to change.

But he didn't need Penny's likes either.Harry thought angrily.

The two sisters still came to the playground where they were about to be eliminated. Harry, who followed them cautiously, did not approach them, but stood far away in a corner where he could see the whole situation - he could clearly see the whole situation in this place. He could clearly see the bushes where Snape used to avoid.

Harry half-bent cautiously, this time, he must not allow anyone to see anything.

At this time, Lily got on the swing and flew up. After staying in the air for a while, she lightly landed on the ground. Petunia's scream came as expected. Harry rubbed his ears, and he could almost be caught The memorized lines are kept out of the ears, and this action actually works, because it blocks out most of Petunia's piercing screams.

Snape was already standing behind the bushes at this time. He observed the two sisters carefully. The moment Lily landed easily, his body moved obviously, and his fists were clenched, as if he was determined to do it. something.

Lily walked towards the bush where Snape was hiding. She picked up a withered flower. After Petunia came over, she used her magic power to make the withered flower open and close as if it had regained its vitality. , but in exchange for another scream from Petunia, Lily was a little unhappy, "Did I do anything to you?" She saw that Petunia was really scared, so she crumpled the flowers and threw them on the ground. on the ground.

Looking at the familiar scene, Harry almost yawned. He wanted to leave, but he was afraid that something might happen again.

He has read this memory no less than dozens of times, and he can recite all the lines——

Yes, he should have told Snape a long time ago that Muggle was not an insulting word, no one should belittle others without reason, and if they did, then it must be their own fault.

Harry didn't know if little Snape would listen to him. In fact, in this world, contempt for others has become a norm. Even if you know it's wrong, no one will be completely fair to everyone. one person.

What's more, Snape-the future Snape is a typical example of the kind of people who wear colored glasses and look at people with prejudice.

If he stays in this place for a longer time, can the little boy change his bad habits?In this way, I will have a better life here in the future...

No, Harry quickly stopped his thoughts.

He can't predict the result of the change. What if it gets worse?Harry didn't think he could afford the risk.

Snape had already struck up a conversation with the two sisters, his face looked a little red because of nervousness, and his logic was not particularly clear.

Everything works as expected.

But at this moment, Harry's eyes were fixed on the boy and girl who were talking without blinking, not daring to miss every moment.

At this moment, Harry suddenly heard a sentence that he couldn't remember.

Little Snape said: "You should believe me, because I can do these magics, and I can do better." There was some pride in his tone, and he picked up the withered flowers that Lily had just thrown on the grass , this flower that had been ravaged to the point of disfigurement slowly returned to life in his hands.

Harry was pretty sure the Snape he remembered didn't do that.

The flower bloomed in his hand, as if it had just been plucked, and the petals stretched to a beautiful, complete length, opening and closing as if they were dancing in his palm.

Little Snape was right, he did better than Lily.

Lily looked at little Snape in surprise, but the next second, they were greeted with a scream from Petunia: "What are you doing? This is wrong!"

"Shut up, you're just a Muggle, you don't know anything, and you have no magic power." Little Snape retorted unwillingly.

Petunia sneered, and said sharply: "Then what are you?"

"I'm a wizard." Little Snape replied coldly, "just like your sister is a witch, I've been watching you for a while," he looked at Lily, "you must be, you don't know , we go back to a place called Hogwarts after the age of 11, where we can learn magic better, your sister - because she is a Muggle - so she will definitely not go with us."

Lily doesn't know what to say anymore, these are things she has never been in contact with, she only knows that she has strange abilities, and her sister does not, what magic, what Hogwarts, the boy is categorical He looks very knowledgeable and sounds very reliable.

It is undeniable that Lily felt a little shaken in her heart. It was the first time she saw someone who could use...magic like him. Compared with Petunia's usual negation, she was of course more interested in Snape at this time .

"I know who you are," Petunia blushed with anger. She was disrupted by the sudden appearance of the little boy just now. She was older than the two of them. At this time, she also calmed down. "You're the Snape boy, they all live in Spider's End by the river, Lily, you know, that's Spider's End." She emphasized the word "Spider's End", obviously It implies that it is a dirty place. "Why are you peeking at us?"

"I'm not peeping at you." Little Snape's cheeks turned red, and he didn't look very happy. "I'm just looking at her," he said confidently, "because only she can do magic. We are the same kind of people." .”

This reason is indeed enough.

But Harry still felt that something was wrong.

Lily looked at little Snape, and asked cautiously, "What did you just say Hogg..."

"Hogwarts, that's the best wizarding school in Europe." Seeing that Lily's heart was moved, little Snape quickly explained.

Petunia screamed and interrupted the harmonious conversation between the two, "Lily, did you hear what I just said, that boy lives in Spider's End, you know what kind of place it is."

"Muggles are not qualified to interfere in our affairs." Snape said bluntly, and in his words, he directly classified Lily as the same country.

Petunia resorted to her trump card: "Lily, let's go, quickly, go home. Don't stay here."

Little Snape's face darkened in an instant, but he still tempted Lily patiently: "Don't you want to know more about magic? I know a lot, and I can tell you all..."

"Lily..." Petunia urged, she was already walking towards the exit of the playground.

Now Lily seemed even more difficult. She wanted to know about magic, but she couldn't ignore her sister's feelings.

"How about..." Lily looked at Snape hesitantly.

"Lily..."

"You will go back later, there are definitely many things in the wizarding world that make you curious,"

"Lily, I'm leaving."

Snape urged: "She'll leave as soon as she leaves, you can go back later, it just so happens that it's just the two of us..."

"Shut up!" Petunia suddenly strode back, she reached out and grabbed Lily, ready to drag her towards the exit. "I won't let you stay with my sister."

"You!" Little Snape was trembling with anger.

"Petunia, you can't..." Lily looked at the two in a dilemma, and moved her footsteps.

Little Snape saw Lily's choice sharply, and immediately said, "You may not be able to see me next time..."

Harry sighed silently for the cleverness of little Snape, who could still think of an excuse to keep someone at such a time.

——He still felt that something was wrong, at least the Snape he remembered was definitely nervous and restless, and his usual ingenuity seemed to have been thrown into the Blackwater River, but this time it was obviously different.

So Lily was really shaken, "Petunia, please stay with me for a while, just for a while?"

Harry saw that although Petunia was very angry with Snape, she was also curious about magic, so after she procrastinated for a while, she reluctantly accepted Lily's request.

Little Snape was very happy, and he immediately told Lily what he knew about the wizarding world, but it was a pity that Petunia could hardly get in a word, and in the end she just kept attacking what she thought was ridiculous in Snape's words.

Except for the occasional biting few words, the conversation between Snape and Lily was very harmonious and friendly.

——The friendship between children is the easiest to obtain, because the feelings at that time are also the purest, without any impurities.

It was almost evening, and the sky was about to darken.

Snape stopped the previous topic without losing the opportunity, and then asked seemingly unintentionally——

"Do you know Mr. Potter?"

The little boy was much more cautious in asking questions this time than before.

Lily glanced at little Snape, and said in disbelief, "You know him too? He's my neighbor."

"Neighbor?" The little boy's eyes widened. "He lives in Cokeworth? Or your neighbor?"

Lily nodded her head as a matter of course, and she muttered, "But he's not here these days. I went to find him several times and he wasn't home. I wanted him to taste the strawberry jam I made myself..."

Harry: "..."

Was he sold by his mother?Why does he always have the feeling of being betrayed by his teammates... No, no, no, that's his mother, he must not think so.

But... Looking at the brightly lit eyes of little Snape, Harry had a feeling that something was wrong.

Lily, why did you just say that! !

He wanted to hide it!

Harry, who was well hidden in the Invisibility Cloak, slumped.

If Harry was more careful at this time, he would find that these conversations were slightly different from what he remembered, and he could also feel the subtle emotional changes in them. Little Snape was not as eager and restless as he remembered, but he did know Lily. .

The gears of fate seem to be back on the right track.

☆☆☆

The two sisters parted ways with little Snape, and Lily was still reminiscing about Snape's words on the way back. The wizarding world is so magical and fun. Petunia was obviously still very upset, so Lily had to calm down slowly and quickly appease her sister who seemed to be hit.

After they returned home, Harry entered his newly bought house.He took out the things he put in the space bag one by one, but he was not in a hurry to arrange them, so he found a corner and piled them all together.

The young man was still a little worried about Snape. After thinking for a long time, he still apparated outside Snape's home in Spider's End. Wearing an invisibility cloak, he sneaked around to the back of the house, and followed the same steps that Snape made last time. Pu sneaked into the house quietly.

There was still a dead silence in the house, dark and dark, so deserted that it didn't look like there was a living person living in it.

It was still early this time, although the street lights outside the house had been turned on, but the sky was still bright, offsetting the light from the street lights, but the tightly closed curtains blocked all the light from the outside, only a trace of the small skylight The light allows people to vaguely see the layout of the house.

Little Snape was gone, the door of his room was closed tightly, and there was no sound of beating, scolding or punishment in the room. Harry walked around the room and saw Irene in the kitchen, who was messing with something. And in a room with an open door on the second floor, Harry was relieved to see a drunken man lying on the bed with no strength, thinking that little Snape should be staying in his room.

Now that this was confirmed, he didn't stay and went directly to his home.

That's when it started to be arranged.

Harry moved very neatly, but compared to such a big house, he didn't bring many things.

He arranged all the things he had brought with him in two or three strokes.

At this moment, the doorbell rang suddenly.

Harry didn't expect someone to come to the door at such a time. When he opened the door, he found his grandpa standing at the door with an apologetic face and holding Lily by the hand.

Harry: "..."

His grandfather apologized to him: "I'm sorry, Harry, Lily said she saw the lights on in your house, and she insisted on coming. We didn't bother you, did we?"

Lily stuck her head out behind Mr. Evans and stuck her tongue out at Harry.

Harry scratched his hair, couldn't help but said with a smile: "No disturbing, but my house is a bit messy, I just came back today, I didn't expect any guests to come..."

"We have been reckless," sighed Mr. Evans. "I hope you will not be offended."

"How could it be?" Harry smiled and moved away, making an inviting gesture, "Please come in, since you're here, at least come in and have a seat."

Lily looked at him happily, and Harry couldn't help but rubbed his mother's hair.

Lily tidied her hair in a hurry, pouted and complained, "Harry, when did you leave? Haven't you come back these days? I've looked for you several times and you're not here."

Mr. Evans secretly made a "look" mouth to Harry. He looked at Lily dotingly, and seemed to have nothing to do with this smart and lively daughter.

Harry smiled and shook his head: "Actually, I just bought a house here, because I have other things to do elsewhere, so I won't live in Cokeworth all the time."

Lily was obviously disappointed when she heard what he said, but she just said: "Then can you say goodbye to me when you leave in the future? Oh, and also, it would be even better if you could tell me when you come."

"I will." Looking at his mother, Harry had no way to refuse.

☆☆☆

This time it may have been longer than the last three days or four days. Harry took out the hourglass and the keys when he was alone.

This time he made a new discovery——

The sand in the upper half of the hourglass is moving, but the movement is abnormal. The fine white sand is not falling, but rising little by little.

He has never seen such an hourglass!

Harry stared back to the fine sand in the upper part bit by bit, and had a vague guess in his heart.

Could it be when all the fine sand returns to the top, which is when he returns to that world?

Maybe that's really the case?

The fine sand is slowly returning to the upper part at a speed invisible to the naked eye. When I wake up the next day, I can see that there is obviously more sand in the upper part than yesterday.

In the morning, Lily came to the door with breakfast, and she looked extraordinarily excited.

The two mothers and sons cooperated tacitly to set up the small outdoor dining table. Because of spring, the temperature, sunshine and rain are quite suitable. Although Harry's yard has not been repaired much, all the plants are growing very luxuriantly. People have a feeling of being in the suburbs.

In such a good environment, of course the two of them enjoyed the sunny air and greenery outside.

Lily brought homemade strawberry jam, as well as other jams at home. She strongly recommended the strawberry jam she made for the first time to Harry, "It may be a little sour, only a little, because I didn't put too much sugar, Still delicious."

The strawberry jam this time was obviously different from the ones Lily brought last time. Harry took a bite of the baked crispy golden bread. It was indeed slightly sour, but to an acceptable level, the sweet and sour taste was fresh and delicious. Pretty good.

"Delicious." Harry gave a thumbs up without hesitation, "Is this really the first time you make it yourself?"

Lily nodded vigorously and said: "Thank you for your compliment, I will definitely give you a bottle when I make it in the future!"

"Then I will thank you in advance!" Harry said with a smile. He was really happy. He never thought that he could eat the jam made by his mother for the first time. surprise.

"By the way," the two chatted for a while, Lily suddenly said as if remembering something, "Do you know Snape? His name seems to be, Sev..."

"Severus?" Harry didn't expect Lily to ask this question, but he said cooperatively, "What's wrong?"

Lily's expression was a little strange, as if she was surprised that the two knew the same person.

"So you really know him."

"Yeah." Harry nodded, pretending to be waiting for the next one.

"Then you know..." Lily looked at Harry hesitantly, and didn't say the following sentence for a long time.

"Know what?" Harry couldn't remember looking at Lily.

He was very suspicious that what Lily wanted to ask was actually about magic.

Soon, Lily really asked, but her way of asking was very tactful: "Harry, do you have any strange abilities..."

Harry wanted to pretend he didn't understand, but seeing Lily's sudden cautious tone, he still couldn't bear it.

One said it, and two said it. Since Lily also wanted to know, why couldn't he tell his mother?

So Harry accepted
