Chapter 172 Return and Knowing

When I was sent out of the cave by Zhang Tianshi, it was getting dark.

Aiden's plan to go out for fun was ruined, so he just went to bed.

Lying on the bed, recalling the information revealed by the master.

"No, I was taken advantage of for free?" Aiden had an idea.

"Oh, you idiot." The system laughed.

"This old guy only told me about the formation of the cave, but didn't say a word about the most important method of cultivation?" Aiden covered his head, wanting to kill himself for being stupid in the afternoon.

"They won't give you the foundation of their livelihood just for a competition. It's not a loss to know one of the most important secrets of the Eastern wizard just by raising your hand." The system comforted.

"Oh." Aiden curled up in the bed wrapped in the quilt.

.......

Aiden, feeling that he was being taken advantage of, couldn't continue playing, so he packed up and hurried back to England.

It was the second day of the Christmas holiday, so it looked like I could still make it to the school party.

A flash appeared inside Hogwarts, where the twins were making snowmen.

"Oh, look who this is." George saw it coming.

"Our increasingly gorgeous little brother," Fred teased.

Aiden smiled at the two men, and the two brothers became the manipulator's second and third experimental subjects.

George and Fred suddenly slipped and both fell in the splits.

"Oh, Aiden help me." The twins pleaded for help.

"Oh, why are you two brothers so careless?"

Aiden went over to help them up, and the two virtual personalities returned from the island of consciousness.

Just as the twins were about to speak, a row of footprints appeared in the snow, which immediately attracted their attention.

The two men rushed forward and lifted up the person on the snow.

"Ah, you two let me go." Harry shouted softly under the Invisibility Cloak.

"That's quite clever Harry," said George.

"But not smart enough," Fred added.

"Let me go, please, I want to go to Hogsmeade." Harry whispered.

"We know." *2

The twins took Harry to the corner of the stairs, took out the Marauder's Map and handed it to Harry.

"Now, Harry, come and join the big boys." * 2

"Aiden probably doesn't need this thing." George looked at his younger brother.

"Maybe even Dumbledore can't catch him." Fred also lamented his younger brother's elusiveness.

"Well, what rubbish you gave me." Harry looked at the worn parchment.

"Haha, he said it's rubbish." George and Fred looked at each other and smiled.

The two of them kindly introduced the Marauder's Map to Harry and recommended the secret passage of the One-eyed Witch.

Aiden, who was standing by, also saw Dumbledore pacing in the office from the Marauder's Map.

After Harry sneaked out of the castle with the map, Aiden went to the principal's office.

"Password." The gargoyle in front of the principal's office tried to stop Aiden.

But with just a glance from Aiden, the gargoyles automatically made way, and it seemed easier to control these conscious magical creations.

"Aiden? What's the matter? Don't tell me you've taken down the gatekeeper statue downstairs again." Dumbledore teased.

"Of course not, Headmaster." Aiden's figure appeared and disappeared.

"Have you become stronger?" Dumbledore could not feel any magic from Aiden at all.

"As expected, I still have to ask you for the test." Aiden raised the corners of his mouth.

"Have you completed the transformation of magical creatures?" Dumbledore was shocked by his own guess.

"No, not yet. We still need the last step. Right now we have an incomplete transformation." Aiden's words were a mixture of truth and falsehood.

"That's a remarkable achievement. By the way, is there anything you want to talk to the old man about?" Dumbledore asked.

"Professor Lupin, I think we should start working on completing his 'curse'." There was a strange light flashing in Aiden's eyes.

"Another good news." Dumbledore finally put aside one of the things that had been weighing on his mind.

"Now that you have dealt with the things in your heart, you won't want to travel far away, will you?" Aiden saw through Dumbledore's thoughts.

"You can already read my thoughts? That's too fast." Dumbledore shook his head.

"No, just let me stay for a while longer. It is a blessing to see the growth of outstanding students." Dumbledore said with a smile.

Aiden was sure that the principal was telling the truth and left with peace of mind.

On the other side, Harry sneaked out of the castle with the invisibility cloak and helped Hermione and Ron drive away Malfoy.

The three of them came to the Three Broomsticks Bar together and entered the bar together.

Ron volunteered to take the order.

"How about ordering a drink for me too?" Aiden said from his chair.

"Ah!" * 3

It was obvious that the three were frightened by Aiden's sudden appearance on the chair.

"Aiden, could you please stop being so elusive?" Ron complained and stood up to order.

The other two gave him accusing looks, but Aiden shrugged.

"I'll pay the bill, okay?"

Harry and Hermione were satisfied and let him go.

"Do you know why Ron volunteered to order? Because he wanted to be closer to Madam Rosmerta." Hermione leaked Ron's gossip to her other two friends.

"She has a pretty face and beautiful curves, but she's a middle-aged lady. Does Ron like her like this?" Aiden's face was calm, but his heart was full of question marks.

"Well, your evaluation is very accurate. I don't have much to say." Harry was also speechless.

Soon, four glasses of butterbeer were served, and Aiden deliberately hid himself so as not to expose his young face.

"Ding-ling." The door of the bar was pushed open and Fudge walked in.

"Professor McGonagall, Minister Fudge." Rosmerta greeted the two.

"Dear Rosmerta, how is business?"

Fudge wanted to be polite, but what greeted him was Rosmerta's scolding.

"Business, you still have the nerve to talk about that? If it weren't for the Dementors searching the bar every day, I would only have these few customers."

"My dear, you have to understand us. There is a murderer hanging around nearby." Fudge apologized helplessly.

"Huh, Sirius Black is in Hogsmeade? What brings him here?" Madam Rosmerta looked at Fudge strangely.

"Harry Potter," Fudge stepped forward and whispered.

"Harry Potter?" Madam Rosmerta raised her voice, which attracted Harry.

Professor McGonagall and Fudge rushed over to stop Rosmerta.

Rosmerta glanced at the two men and led them into the private room.

But what they didn't realize was that there was a guy wearing an invisible cloak following them.

"It's okay Harry...Harry?" Hermione turned around and found that her eldest son was gone.

"Can't I have his Butterbeer?" Aiden asked.

"Aiden, why didn't you stop him when you saw him following?" Hermione scolded.

"But you can't stop people from knowing the truth," said Ron.

This made Hermione so angry that she turned around and glared at him.

In the private room, Harry heard the truth about the incident that Professor McGonagall and the others knew, and also learned that Sirius was his godfather.

Feeling disheartened, he didn't know how he walked out of the Three Broomsticks and made his way to the vicinity of the Shrieking Shack.

The other three followed the footprints and heard Harry sobbing by the river.

Hermione ran over and lifted the Invisibility Cloak, "Harry, what happened?"

"He was their friend, but he betrayed my parents..."

Ron also stood there blankly, not knowing how to start.

"If he comes, I will fight him to the death and kill him with my own hands." Harry's roar echoed in the woods.
