Chapter 643

As soon as Vernon parked the car, he saw Penny hurrying all the way from home.

"What did that kid do again?" Vernon squinted his eyes and glanced at the door, "Is he eavesdropping on the news again?"

"Vernon, there's something strange going on in the house!" Penny looked around, as if to make sure the neighbors had noticed.

"What's weird?" Vernon looked at Penny suspiciously.

"Yes...... Strange. Petunia had a strange expression on her face, which had less to do with nervousness, more with surprise and puzzlement.

"I was just about to do the laundry, but I found that the dirty clothes were gone......"

"Did that kid do that? huh? he hid those clothes?" Vernon curled his beard, his prejudice against Harry was too deep.

"No, it's not. Penny swallowed, "Those dirty clothes have already been washed, and they are even folded." "

"Excuse me, dear?" Vernon felt his heart skip a beat. He remembered what Solim had told him a few hours earlier about that "house-elf" topic.

"It's true! I'm not lying to you, and it's not April Fool's Day. Penny pulled Vernon and walked home, "See for yourself......"

As soon as she entered, Penny was dumbfounded. The table was already filled with a steaming meal, and even knives and forks were arranged.

"This ......," Penny looked at Vernon with some confusion, "I didn't do that!

Vernon was very unusually calm, and he took Penny's hand and patted it.

"It's okay, I know what's going on. Vernon was now convinced that what Solim had said was true, and that he had really asked a so-called "house-elf" to help them with the housework.

"Go and call that kid down for dinner. Vernon said.

Harry was very surprised that the Dursleys would take the initiative to bring themselves to the table, and it was a very sumptuous dinner, Harry did not understand what was wrong with the Dursleys.

"Boy," Vernon whispered to Harry, glancing at his son who was biting his fork and staring at the TV show, "thanks to your classmates, you don't have to wash the dishes anymore." "

Harry was even more surprised, he even wondered if the Aunt Vernon in front of him had been made with Polyjuice Potion.

"My classmates?"

"That's right, the one who came to our house that night. "

With that, Vernon glanced at his son, who was watching the TV intently, and Dudley now looked completely out of the shadows of that night.

"Solim?"

"Yes, Mr. Selwyn. Taking a breath, "Thanks to this, you can be freed from these tedious chores." "

"But...... Why?" said Harry, surprised, "I mean...... What the hell is going on?"

Vernon glanced at Dudley again, and Penny looked preoccupied with her dinner, but her attention was all on Vernon and Harry's side.

"......," Vernon paused, then continued, "He sent a 'house elf' to our house, and so ......"

"Ahem, ahem...... Ahem......"

Harry nearly choked on the beans in his mouth.

"House-elves?!" Harry lowered his voice under Vernon's stern gaze, "You mean, a 'house-elf'?!here?"

"Yes. Vernon said, "Mr. Selwyn sent one." "

If someone who doesn't know the situation hears it, they think they have sent a bodyguard.

"But...... Why?" Harry still couldn't figure out why Solim had sent a house-elf to Dursley's house.

Wait a minute......

Harry suddenly realized that house-elves were very useful. Their magic is not restricted by wizards, and it is very difficult for wizards to detect unless they are discovered voluntarily - as Dobby did in his second year. Harry knew that the migration of a house-elf was different from that of a wizard. This means that house-elves can be restricted by either the Anti-Apparition Charm or the Anti-Apparition Charm.

Harry thinks he's figured it out, Solim sent a house-elf here to make sure he's safe, and if something happens, Solim can quickly find out and take action.

Although he was being watched, Harry was not disgusted by this - he had been watched for more than ten years, Harry had long been used to it, and Solim had freed himself from the tedious manual labor of washing dishes, mopping the floor, and watering the lawn, and it was too late for Harry to be grateful.

"So, that's what you're doing when you go out today?"

By this time, Solim had returned to Orvis Manor, and was questioned by Sylna.

"That's right. "

"Is this necessary?" said Solim and Sylna were the only two in the bedroom, and Sylna was sitting on the edge of the bed with her arms crossed.

"Absolutely. Solim explained, "That villa is in Vernon. Dursley's name, if something happened to their family, the Death Eaters were still likely to attack Privet Road, and they didn't do it because they were afraid of loss. But this possibility cannot be ruled out, Uncle Harry's house is not protected by the Loyalty Charm, and the Death Eaters can go there if they wish. "

"To protect a Muggle?" said Sylna's expression was strange.

"To protect my large villa. Solim spread his hands, "Like I said, the house is in Vernon Dursley's name, and if their family dies for some reason, then their relatives will inherit the villa - like the Maggie Desley, who was blown up by Harry. "

"Then why are you ......?"

"We're wizards—my good sister. Solim said with a wry smile.

"We weren't born in Muggle hospitals, so we don't have birth certificates, which means we don't exist in a common people's society. Solim sighed, "It's a hassle, and it means we can't do anything that requires identification." "

"But don't forget, you're a wizard. "

"I know, but I don't want to do it that way. Solim knew that his insistence might be a little rigid, but this was his personal matter of principle, "And magic is not omnipotent, if you don't take the formal way, there will be many problems in the future, in order to deal with those problems, more magic will be used, even if you are cautious, it is always inevitable that you will be negligent, there is still a risk of exposure, rather than regretting it afterwards, it is better to honestly follow the formal path from the beginning."
