Recently, everyone feels that the surrounding air has become a lot dull. It's sunny every day, but when it shines on people, people can't help but want to hide in the shade.
On Privet Drive, the large square houses were mostly shrouded in a sleepy silence.
The cars that normally shine brightly are now all gray in the driveway; The once lush grassland has a dry and yellow trend.
When walking in the street, it is rare to have a gust of wind blowing quietly, accompanied by a warm breath - it seems that everything around us is silently reminding everyone that summer has come.
Due to the recent drought, the use of watering hoses has long been banned. But the residents of Privet Drive usually spend their pastime cleaning cars and mowing grass.
Now, unable to do either of these things, they had to hide in their cool house and open the windows wide in the hope of blowing a cold wind that did not exist.
In this breathless weather, only one person remained outdoors. This is a teenage boy. He is lying flat in the flower bed outside No. 4 Privet Drive.
He is a thin boy with black hair and glasses. He looks a little weak.
Maybe it's because I jumped up too fast in a very short time! His jeans were worn and dirty, his T-shirt was loose and faded, and the soles and uppers of his sneakers were separated.
But on his forehead, there was a distinctive lightning scar, which doomed him to be extraordinary all his life.
His name is Harry Potter.
Mr. Porter's appearance, of course, can't be liked by his neighbors. Those of them believe that dilapidated and untidy should be punished by the law.
However, he has been hiding in his room or lying behind this large cluster of hydrangeas for some time, and passers-by will not see him.
In fact, as long as his Uncle Vernon or aunt Penny poked his head out of the living room window and looked straight into the flower bed below, he might still be seen by them.
On the whole, Mr. Porter felt that he was lucky to think of hiding here - it would never be comfortable to lie on the hot and hard soil.
On the other hand, no one here will stare at him fiercely and bite his teeth so that he can't hear what is said in the news, and no one will ask him some questions like a fireball.
Every time he wanted to sit in the living room and watch TV with his aunt and uncle, they always disturbed him.
In this family, Mr. Potter has not been happy since he was a child. But where else can he go besides here? Especially when his parents were brutally killed when he was a child.
"... fish and chips! Fish and chips! Food treasures in England! Fish and chips in fish and chips! Fish and chips in fish and chips! The price of one share and the enjoyment of two copies! Fish and chips! Fish and chips! Fish and chips..."
Inside the window, there was a burst of annoying advertising songs. This advertisement is very popular recently. Whether on the street or on TV, it will disgust you from time to time. It's unbearable in this hot afternoon.
"... can I have anything else besides fish and chips..." Harry lay in the grass, his head resting on his arms, his eyelids half drooping, and seemed to be going to sleep soon.
But just then, there was a creaking noise on the deserted street because of the hot weather.
"... Oh! Damn it! The noise raised my blood pressure!"
There was a faint complaint from Harry's Uncle Vernon Dursley, and then Harry heard the window slam shut.
At this time, the conversation between the two people suddenly sounded outside the flowers.
"... stop, stop! Lenny smells it! Sister, stop!"
"Oh."
Then, with a more shrill squeak, Harry immediately heard someone coming towards him.
"Ha! Lenny found out!"
Harry was trying to get up and have a look, but he didn't expect it. He had just raised his head, but he felt a darkness on his head. The next second, Harry's stomach was hurt by tons.
"Ah!!!"
Just now, he felt sleepy only because of the dull and hot air; But now, he only felt the darkness in front of him and almost fainted.
"Down... Come down..."
Harry raised his right hand, patted weakly on one of his ankles, still on his stomach, and said weakly.
"Eh? Human beings are really fragile... Ah ah ah! Harry Potter is so famous that I thought he must be smooth and tender! He looks so thin that he doesn't taste good!"
It was Lenny, the werewolf girl abducted by Marca, who was standing on Harry's belly and talking now. She was wearing a light short sleeved dress, her exposed arms and ankles were thin and white, and her lovely appearance made people completely unable to imagine that she was a werewolf.
She had been running around Hogwarts castle for a while before, but she didn't know many people. This is the first time she saw Harry!
After all, this crazy girl is often whirring, and her strength is much stronger than ordinary people. She has bullied many boys, but she has never seen anyone willing to make friends with her.
Just as Harry rolled his eyes and was about to faint, his sister Lena spoke.
"As Mr. McLean said, we can't eat people anymore."
Lena is still the same as in the past. When she needs it, her acting skills are also very good, but her nature is always like this.
When Lenny heard the speech, she pouted her lips and said, "Okay, okay! Lenny understands..."
She said so, but she was still angry and made a little uncomfortable. It seemed that she didn't enjoy it. She raised her right foot and stamped down.
"Ow!"
Harry could not bear the pain and finally bowed down and fainted among the flowers.
"Ah - is that dizzy?" Lenny squatted down, poked Harry's cheek with her index finger, and then snorted discontentedly. "It's boring!"
"Take it."
Outside the flowers, sister Lena said softly.
"OK!"
Lenny jumped down from Harry's stomach reluctantly, then reached out and grabbed Harry's collar and directly lifted him out of the flowers.
On the street outside the flowers, my sister Lena is riding on an old-fashioned bicycle. Her hot short jeans highlight her legs. When she steps on the road, it seems that even she is so tall.
Seeing her sister jumping out of the grass with Harry, Lena calmly waved to her sister to hurry back to the back seat.
Lenny nodded and seemed to be in a better mood again, as if any bad thing would not make her depressed for more than three minutes, bouncing towards her sister.
Poor Harry was like a rag doll. She carried him around in her hand. It was very sad.
Lenny came to the bike, then jumped gently and stood on the back bracket of the bike. Lena just stepped on the ground with one foot, but Wen Si didn't move under Lenny's jump.
"Let's go -"
In the cheering cry of Lenny, Lena stepped on the pedal hard. With another more harsh creak, the bike staggered forward.
Just looking at the momentum, people can't help worrying that the bike will be overburdened and may break up at any time.
But when Lena stepped on for a distance, she saw her finger reach out and dial the bell. With the crisp ring of the bell, even the car belt was a blur, and then suddenly she rose up and flew far away to the sky.
"Squeak --"
The window above the flowers was reopened. Harry's Uncle Vernon stretched out his fat face and looked at everything outside the window suspiciously, but found nothing.
"Damn it, who is making trouble? If I catch you..."
……
"Jingling bell -"
In a burst of familiar car bells, the creaking sound sounded again outside the burrow. Before long, Lena clenched the brake handle and parked her bike in front of the gate.
"Here, here!"
Lenny jumped out of the car with a thud, ran to the front door of the Burrow with Harry, and knocked on the door.
"Come back! Come back! Lenny is back!"
The sisters have been living in Weasley's house this summer vacation. There are plenty of empty rooms here. Although they are smaller, they don't care about it.
It was Laini's unusually noisy nature that made Mrs. Weasley a little unbearable. She called out that there was another master in the family who was more troublesome than the twin brothers.
However, it can be seen that Mrs. Weasley, who has always liked children, does not hate this messy family atmosphere.
"Oh... Come in, come in! Wash your hands!" Mrs. Weasley slammed the door open and said, "our dinner time must be earlier today. We should go to Mr. gidrow Lockhart's personal audio-visual show later..."
Just then, she suddenly saw Harry in Lenny's hand.
"Oh! Merlin's chin!" Mrs. Weasley said in surprise. "Isn't this Harry? What's the matter with him..."
Lenny simply thrust Harry into Mrs. Weasley's arms.
"Lenny accidentally stepped on Mr. Potter's belly, but who knows that Mr. Potter fainted without stepping..." she said with a smile as she walked in.
"Lai - Ni --!" Mrs. Weasley took a deep breath with Harry in syncope, then shouted, and began the usual roaring lecture.
Lena quietly parked her bike against the wall, and then walked slowly towards the gate.
"... mom."
In Lena's impression, she and Lenny's mother should be like this?
