The happiness of HP

Chapter 302 Extra Story: International Magic Teaching Competition (56)

After leaving Mrs. Malkin's robe shop, Harry followed the children's advice and decided to have some snacks. Although there are two young daughters at home, Harry left a piece of his own elemental wisdom in the Slytherin Manor The puppet takes care of it, so I don't worry about the child crying when he can't see him.Therefore, they can spend more time in Diagon Alley.

Walking into a new dim sum shop in Diagon Alley, the children and Harry went to pick out dim sum, and Severus sat alone at a table in the corner, looking out the window.Opposite is the joke shop of the Weasley Brothers. Today happened to be the weekend, but there were many children under the age of 11 accompanied by their parents to choose their own New Year gifts. Therefore, there was a lot of traffic at the door of the joke shop.There were even students from Hogwarts sneaking over from Hogsmeade to go shopping on weekends. Of course, Severus didn't care about it, although a few students who were tired from shopping found out when they came in for some hot drinks he.

After a while, Harry and the children came here with snacks and drinks.They took their seats at the table Severus had chosen, and the children each took their share, while Harry placed a cup of black coffee in front of Severus.

Severus knew that it was Harry's own coffee, and he just borrowed the heater from this shop to heat it up.

"The joke shop is opposite, and this pastry shop is very good at choosing a location." Remus sighed when he saw another person coming out of the joke shop across the street.

"Yes..." Harry was eating the soufflé on his plate, and this dessert was quite authentic.In addition to rich fresh milk and refreshing vanilla, the aroma of brandy can also be tasted.He cut a piece, forked it with his own fork, and held it to Severus' lips.

Severus didn't refuse, he opened his mouth to accept.The children in the family were used to the interaction between these two parents, so they didn't respond, just waiting for Severus' evaluation.And the people around who discovered this scene took a slight breath of air.

"It's very authentic indeed, but it's still slightly worse than yours." Severus said flatly.

"It's really rare, I can get you to say 'authentic'." Harry also continued to eat his dessert with a smile, "It can be considered that Pansy didn't waste his painstaking efforts to hire a pastry chef from France."

"Sister-in-law Pansy owns this shop?" Artemis asked.

"Yes. It's part of Pansy's dowry," said Harry.

"The two sons of the Parkinson family are not as capable as the daughter, so Draco is cheaper. Speaking of which, the aunt of the Parkinson family has always been good." Severus said, "Lucius' fiancee back then They almost settled on a young lady from the Parkinson family, and if it weren't for the fact that the Black family has a fairly high say in the Dark Lord's camp, Narcissa and Lucius might not be able to fulfill their wish."

"Excuse me, Sev," said Harry.

After hearing Harry's words, Severus immediately stopped talking about this topic. These are all things in the past. Although Severus once had doubts about Lucius' life experience, they are all dead. , Besides, those are meaningless.What's more, even if the conjecture is true, for the sake of the Malfoy family, neither Draco nor Scorpius should mention that person anymore.

Yes, according to Lucius, he never met his mother.And Abraxas.It is said that Malfoy and Mr. Riddle were lovers at Hogwarts. This is what Dumbledore told himself, and it is also because of this that Dumbledore chose Draco as the temporary owner of the Elder Wand.After all, Voldemort would not think that Dumbledore would hand over such an important qualification to a young wizard who might have a close relationship with him.Back then Abraxas.Malfoy's cause of death is still a mystery, and dragon wart syphilis is not enough to kill wizards.However, there is no point in exploring these now, and it may even bring bad luck to the Malfoy family.

Harry has no interest in exploring these secrets, and it doesn't matter whether Draco has Riddle's blood or not, and it seems that the existence of the Malfoy family is more beneficial to the wizarding world than harmful.Draco himself didn't know these secrets, and Narcissa might know some, but under the current situation, she could only bring the secrets to the grave for Draco's sake.

Now Harry only cares about the present moment, what he cares about is Severus' thoughts, or is a little selfish, but, for him who has gone through so many things, he has always been able to care about very few things, he is more often is losing.Therefore, Severus needs to take care of him more often and take care of him. However, Severus is more willing than working for Dumbledore in the past.Of course, this cannot be compared.One is for righteousness and the other is for love.

Harry fed the last morsel of dessert into Severus' mouth, in fact, several children saw, most of the soufflé went into Severus' stomach, Harry just ate it symbolically Two bites.The reason for this, the children knew it well, it was just a compliment from Severus.

They were not in a hurry to leave after eating snacks, and Harry asked Apollo about Rakshasa's physical condition.After he handed over the little boy to Apollo and Artemis, he seldom took care of it, and only assigned him a task of a certain degree of difficulty every week.The two children were quite conscientious. After asking Harry for a pass to Hogsmeade after class, they often took Varin and He to visit Rakshasa.It is said to be a visit, but in fact it is to practice with Luo Sha, but Luo Sha also became friends with them after coming and going.Asking the two of them about Raksha's situation is considered the right person.

Apollo professionally explained Rakshasa's situation, the potions he was supplied with and their usage on weekdays. Harry listened carefully to Apollo's report.Then, he frowned and said, "He hasn't reached his limit yet. It seems that I have to stimulate him. The Judgment Team will come here for special training in January to stimulate him?"

After hearing this, Artemis and Apollo mourned for Rakshasa for a while, isn't the special training of the adjudication team not training people at all?It's like training a group of devils, training them to death from spirit to body.Apollo, Artemis, Varin and Jacobson are also additional participants. Of course, for them, Harry and Severus will give some preferential treatment, for example: as long as they complete 30%.But they were watching Harry and Severus admonishing people, which was really quite terrifying. However, this also caused the members of the Judgment Team to be terrified when they made a move.None of these people could do anything except Harry.

"It's up to you, but you should go and see him later, he did pretty well in this assessment, didn't he?" Severus said.

"Okay." Harry replied, thinking about what kind of task to give Rakshasa next.

At this time, Remus inadvertently turned his head and saw a boy sitting on the steps on the other side of the road crying, he couldn't help but take another look, and was surprised to find that the boy turned out to be Edward.Lupin.He couldn't help frowning.

"You can go if you want. I have found out from Principal Leslie that his life in Akzaan is not easy. He has no evil intentions." Harry naturally saw the child across the road, "Or, If you want to complain about Sirius, you can also scold him. As long as you don't regret it."

"No, brother, I can't have no grudges against him. It's like... I asked Varin, we all know that he has many half-brothers, and he can't fully trust such brothers , and even disgusted his father's unprofessional behavior. It is difficult for me to accept that even a person like him who is often faced with such things cannot do it." Remus said.

"Okay, forget it." Although he was a little curious about why little Lupine appeared here and cried so sadly, obviously he couldn't know directly.

"If you're curious, why can't you go and see for yourself?" Severus said suddenly, slowly stirring the coffee clockwise with a teaspoon.

As soon as the words came out, the children looked at Severus in surprise, and Harry smiled knowingly.He got up unhurriedly and walked out of the dim sum shop slowly.

"Father?" Artemis looked at his father walking across the road, and asked Severus with some doubts, "Don't you hate that Lupine?"

"Indeed." Severus saw Harry standing beside the boy, "I really hate Lupine, whether it's the old one or the young one." In front of James, he didn't even hide his disgust.

"Then...why?" Artemis wondered.

"I hate Lupine, and wish I had nothing to do with them. But that doesn't mean Harry has to, just like Sirius Black, Remus Lupine is a friend of James Potter. And they're all dead , even for the sake of war orphans, I have no position to stop Harry from caring. And..." At this point, Severus curled up the corners of his mouth slightly, picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip comfortably , "Don't you think that knowing why the next generation of the old enemy cried like that is a capital that can be used to mock the old enemy?"

Well, the last reason is what you really think, right? !

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Harry walked slowly across the road and handed him a tissue.The child's gaze followed the tissue, along the arm, and finally focused on Harry's face. When he saw the backlit face clearly, his doubts turned into surprise.Evidently, the boy hadn't expected to see this man in this way, in this place, at this time.He licked his lips, but he didn't make a sound after all. He just hiccupped and looked at the man at a loss.

The man's expression was calm, without pity, smile, or sarcasm, as if he was just delivering a tissue.For a moment, shame and embarrassment flooded his heart like this.If it was before, he would probably feel good about himself and think that Harry was following him, but now, he doesn't think so anymore.

"Here, wipe away your tears. Professor Lupine and Nymphadora won't think it's a good thing for you to cry on the street." Seeing that the child was motionless, Harry simply stuffed the tissue into Edward's hand .

"Teacher... No, Professor," Edward originally wanted to call "Godfather" reflexively, but finally changed his words under Harry's calm green eyes, "Thank you." Edward lowered his head in a low voice.

"How is Andromeda?" Harry simply stood beside the child with his arms crossed, his eyes looking at Severus who was opposite him. Whenever he saw his lover, his mood would improve unconsciously.

"Grandma, she met friends from when she was young in the United States, and often got together with them." Edward wiped away his tears, and then replied.

"Well, that's good." Harry nodded. "There is nothing in this world that cannot be solved. As long as you have enough courage, think about how to solve the problem. Make a decision, as long as you don't let yourself be in the future." It’s enough to regret one day. Although crying is a way to vent emotions, it can’t solve any problems.”

Edward stared blankly at Harry, Harry smiled at him, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, Edward noticed the silver ring on his ring finger that shone brightly under the sunlight: "16 year old Boy, it's embarrassing to cry outside, don't do it in the future. I eat dim sum with my family in the dim sum shop over there, and you probably won't like them. By the way, come and see me before you go back to the United States , Remus found something in the old house, and I hope you can bring it to Andromeda."

Then, Harry waved to Edward, turned and walked back to the pastry shop opposite.His family were already outside the pastry shop, and Harry hurried towards them.

Standing where he was, Edward watched Principal Snape hugging the boy named Ares. The boy held a brown checkered scarf in his hand and wrapped Harry around it. Harry kissed the child affectionately on the face.He lowered his head, tightly clutching the tissue in his hand. During his days in a foreign country, he thought a lot and understood many things.He also slowly understood why Harry didn't become his godfather.Those unreasonable troubles I used to make really hurt the hearts of many people.If I hadn't misunderstood at the beginning, would I have received the same treatment as that Blake, the son of my father's friend?

Edward stared blankly at the boy who was rowing with Apollo, it was Sirius.Black's son has the same name as his father. He doesn't know why Mr. Black named his son after his friend.But these days, Chief Black's excellence is beyond Edward's reach.He often thought that if his father was still alive, he would have liked that outstanding boy with the same name as his father more than his own son, right?
