Chapter 119 Complaints and unexpected encounters

At this point, the story told by Cecil has almost ended, but the record of "The Process of Modern Black Magic" has not yet ended.

Cecil, who had been serving his sentence in Azkaban, did not know what was happening outside. It was not until Joyce was imprisoned in Azkaban that Cecil knew that his relatives had been killed and that he was the murderer. People who have been hurt.

Since then, Cecil no longer disregarded human life, began to change his ways, and provided assistance to the Ministry of Magic during Voldemort's rise to power, helping the Ministry of Magic fight against Voldemort.

It is for this reason that Cecil was pardoned by the Ministry of Magic and walked out of Azkaban alive without becoming a madman like poor Joyce and eventually dying in a cell.

After being released from prison, Cecil returned to the countryside where he once lived and kept a low profile. Even many people who had an impression of him did not know that he was released from prison. If Cecil hadn't become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, everyone would have thought he would have died in Azkaban.

That's all the records in the book. After that, there are some black magic that Grover Cecil often uses, such as the Fire Curse, the Wind Killing Curse, etc., which are all used to kill people and set fires.

These things did not arouse Ada's interest. Ada's current focus was entirely on whether Cecil had lied to herself. If Cecil really deceived her, she would no longer be a human being. She would no longer be Esmeralda Drizzt, but Nyuhuru Ada!

Ada felt that she was really miserable. She was competing with the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, which was thrown away every year. After two years of schooling at Hogwarts, neither of the two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors was an economical person. !

Last year's Benedick Foley looked like a silly son of a landlord, but he always wanted to resurrect Voldemort and make big news. In the end, he was tortured by the curse and was injured all over his body. He also thought about killing Alec. Da.

After finally getting Welfare into Azkaban, another Grover Cecil came who had just been released from Azkaban a few years ago.

Fortunately, Cecil has not caused much trouble so far, and his physical condition is not suitable for causing trouble. He probably has no thoughts of killing Ada now. But as soon as they came up, they immediately deceived Ada, and even "cheated" her with a story for almost a school year. The method was much better than welfare.

When making friends, Ada never looked at whether the other party had money or not. They were richer than her anyway, except for Fred and George! If there wasn't an orphanage to protect us from the wind and rain, we would almost have only one bowl at the start!

There are no relatives such as parents or grandfathers with powerful magic, and there is no high-ranking bloodline. There is not even the underground vault of Gringotts. How can an orphan with nothing become a target?

Now Ada only cares about two points. One is whether Cecil, the bad old man, lied to him (Ada thinks 90% of the time he is lying to her), and the other is who next year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor will be and what he can do. Come on!

If Professor Nianbao still has trouble with Ada next year, this world is really not worth it...

Just when Ada was complaining crazily in her heart, the small playground where she was alone welcomed another person, a black-haired boy wearing old clothes that didn't fit and round glasses.

The black-haired boy was Harry Potter. He was kicked out by Uncle Vernon because Uncle Vernon was going to receive a distinguished guest at home and he didn't want Harry to make a mess.

With nowhere to go, Harry came to this amusement park alone. He planned to stay here until dark before going back, hoping that the distinguished guest would have left by then. Harry saw a blond girl sitting quietly on a swing in the playground. There was no wind, but her long blond hair was always flying behind her head, as if blown by the wind.

From a distance, the girl looked beautiful, and Harry swore he had never seen this girl in this neighborhood.

They must have just moved here! Harry thought to himself. He did not enter the playground, but sat on a bench outside. He wanted to wait until the girl left before going there.

In more than a month, his cousin Dudley will have his birthday. Dudley received thirty-eight birthday gifts for his birthday last year. I wonder how many he will receive this year? Thirty-nine pieces?

On Harry's birthday, he didn't receive any gifts, no birthday cake, and couldn't even hear a birthday blessing. He also wants to receive gifts, a birthday cake of his own, and a wild celebration with friends on his birthday.

The street lights on the roadside were all on. Harry had been sitting on the bench for a long time, but the girl on the swing never left. Harry was a little confused, didn't this girl have to go home for dinner? He couldn't be kicked out too, right?

The weather in the UK is like a child's face. It changes at a moment's notice. It was still sunny and clear in the afternoon, but it started to rain as soon as it got dark. Harry outside the playground now didn't even have a place to take shelter from the rain. No.

When Harry was thinking about where he should go to take shelter from the rain and whether he should invite the girl in the playground to join him, he saw the girl take out a thin wooden stick from her clothes and hold it like an umbrella. In her hands.

Harry's heart was once again occupied by doubts. What was the difference between the girl's behavior and the Emperor's New Clothes? Just when Harry thought that the girl was lying to him, something even more surprising happened. The rainwater completely avoided the girl, as if she was really holding an umbrella. The girl just held up the small wooden stick and walked to the side of the slide to take shelter from the rain.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Harry needed to find a place to take shelter quickly. If he didn't take shelter from the rain, he would be soaked in the rain. If so, he would be severely punished by Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia.

The weird behavior of the blond girl just now should have kept Harry away from her, but instead of being frightened by the girl's actions, Harry walked towards the slide where the girl was sitting by accident.

Ada was complaining in her heart, but it started to rain. She took out her wand and used it as an umbrella. She thought about waiting for the rain to stop before going back, but who knew that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, so she had to go under the slide to hide from the rain, and also added a "waterproof and moisture-proof" for herself.

Ada didn't notice that there was another person suddenly near the playground. She only saw the boy when he ran towards the slide. The boy looked a little thin and was wearing old clothes that obviously didn't fit.

When the boy came closer, Ada saw that he was wearing a pair of round glasses held together with a lot of transparent tape. There were a few locks of black hair that stood stubbornly on his head even if it was wet by the rain. Like himself, he had a pair of emerald green eyes, and a light scar like lightning on his forehead.

Ada recognized the scar. Every book that mentioned the Boy-Who-Lived never tired of mentioning the lightning scar on his head as proof that he defeated Voldemort.

The two people stood quietly under the slide to take shelter from the rain. Both of them were very thin and could just squeeze in. Neither of them spoke. Although Harry was a little curious about Ada's behavior just now, he didn't know Ada, so he didn't dare to speak.

Ada did recognize who the boy in front of her was. He was the Harry Potter that Ginny had longed for, but Ada didn't speak. Knowing his name does not mean knowing him. For Ada, Harry Potter is just a stranger who appears in textbooks, and she has never liked talking to strangers.

Harry felt a little cold after being caught in the rain, but Ada beside him didn't feel this way at all. Because it was "waterproof and moisture-proof", her body was always dry. She even had the time to consider whether she should give it to the Daily Prophet. "Submit an article with the title "The Roof Sheltering from the Rain with the Savior", and maybe you can get a lot of royalties.

The rain showed no sign of letting up, and Ada couldn't wait any longer. If she delayed any longer, she would miss the dinner time at the orphanage. She was just staying there, and it would not be a good idea to always trouble Ms. Valente.

Ada, who didn't want to wait any longer, held up the magic umbrella again and walked into the pouring rain. Harry, who stayed under the slide, saw Ada's "magic umbrella" again. He was so surprised that he forgot to even think about how to get home.

Harry felt colder and colder. He hugged his shoulders and shivered under the slide. How should he get home in such heavy rain?

"Where do you live?"

The girl's voice rang in Harry's ears. He looked up and saw the blond girl who had just gone and returned, standing in front of him holding a "magic umbrella".
