Harry Potter: Dark Alchemy

Chapter 267: Methods to avoid traces

Harry had no idea how he got back upstairs to pack, or how he opened the door to the cupboard under the stairs and took out the contents. All he knew was that the process seemed to take no time, and that, somewhat magically, when he reached the cupboard, the cupboard door seemed to open on its own.

Wright was sure it was just Harry's imagination, and he opened the cupboard with the key Vernon gave him.

The Dursleys remained completely indifferent to Harry's behavior, otherwise they would have discovered the loose floorboard under Harry's bed and what was hidden inside.

In the first week of the summer vacation, Harry took the opportunity to sneak downstairs while Uncle Vernon and the others were admiring their new car in the front garden, and took out several textbooks and books from the cupboard. Some pens and papers were hidden under the floor, which was the only opportunity Harry "won" to do homework.

After a while, Wright and Harry took the box and said goodbye to the Dursleys.

When the two of them stepped onto the asphalt of Privet Drive, Harry still couldn't believe that he had simply escaped from the Dursleys.

He stared blankly at Hedwig in the birdcage on the trailer: "Hedwig, we came out like this..."

Wright and Harry's neighbor on Privet Drive nodded. If I remember correctly, the squib lady named Mrs. Figg was Dumbledore's deliberate plan to stay in Little Whinging to keep an eye on Harry's information. Mrs. Figg played a very important role when Harry and Dudley were attacked by dementors.

Then, Wright heard Harry's words almost to himself.

"Harry, if you don't want others to notice you, stop communicating with Hedwig." Wright looked forward calmly and said in a volume that only two people could hear.

Looking around, Harry quickly stopped communicating with the snowy owl, and Hedwig glared at Wright with dissatisfaction.

Wright glanced at Harry's somewhat labored movements, helped him take the heavy clothes box into his hands, and left Hedwig's cage with Harry. Only then did the owl that kept calling stop its noise.

"Thank you." Harry glanced at Wright gratefully, "Where are we going now?"

"To my house, of course," Wright said.

"Your family?" Harry was stunned for a moment. He had vaguely heard about Wright's life experience from others before, and knew that Wright seemed to have no parents like him.

"Of course, Harry, do you think I was fooling the Dursleys just now?" Wright smiled at Harry.

"Yes, yes." Harry stammered, "I thought you just brought me out..."

"Don't be stupid!" Wright patted Harry on the shoulder. Although his motives for inviting Harry to his home were not pure, he had to do what he said.

After walking for a while, the two gradually came to an open space with sparse pedestrians. Several children who were still playing in the open space were being taken away by adults.

After a while, the clearing became completely quiet.

"Then where are we going now?" Harry opened Hedwig's cage, and the snowy owl spread its wings and got out of it.

"Saint Catchpol."

"that is not--"

"Yes," Wright nodded, "The Weasley family lives not far from my house. Fred and George came to my house as guests two days ago. It probably doesn't take ten years to use their flying skateboard. minutes."

"So it was actually Mrs. Weasley who asked you to take me to her house?" Harry guessed.

This is actually not bad. Although Harry had lived in the Burrow for more than a month during the last summer vacation, he knew that Mrs. Weasley would not mind his visit again.

The only thing that would make Harry feel a little embarrassed was that his self-esteem seemed to be a little bit bruised.

"No, I just invite you to come to my house as a guest." Wright said word for word. He still clearly remembered what Chang Chu said. If Harry is here, she will be there.

"But of course you can also go to Weasley's house to play. It's only so close anyway." Wright added.

Harry nodded excitedly, Wright, Ron, Fred, George, and the Weasley family, which included almost all the good friends he met at Hogwarts.

"Hermione and Chang Chu may also come to my place as guests during this summer vacation." Wright gave another piece of good news.

"Then how are we going to get there?" Harry glanced around at the darkening sky around him, "Flying car, or flying broomstick?"

"If possible, I hope to use Apparition." Wright said, "I am also very good at Apparition. I can take you from here to Saint Catchpol in an instant."

"Disapparate? Appear the followers?"

"When you are in sixth grade, you will be exposed to this course." Wright said lightly.

"But I'm only in the second grade now. Although I'm going to be in the third grade soon, I can't use magic yet." Harry said with some frustration, "Wright, you'd better not use magic when you're around me, because then The responsibility will ultimately be placed on me. It was obviously Dobby’s levitating spell last year, but in the end, someone from the Ministry of Magic sent me a warning letter.”

"And, if I remember correctly, Wright, you are not an adult yet?" Harry looked at Wright with doubtful eyes, "You should also be within the scope of the "Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards", right?"

"Harry, do you know when this law was passed?" Wright asked.

"1875." Harry said quickly. Although he had not read the relevant information, the warning letter he received last year had a very detailed description of the "Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards Act", ha. Leigh remembers that the reason he received the warning was because of Section 3 of this bizarre law.

"Yes, 1875." Wright pointed to the saprophytic wood wand on his wrist, avoiding all information about the Alchemy War and trying to find a more reasonable explanation. "When this wand was born, this law was still It didn’t show up, so my wand didn’t have traces applied to it.”

"Trace?" Harry heard another new term.

"Yes, Trace." Wright said, "It is a spell specially designed to detect magical activities by wizards under the age of seventeen. The Ministry of Magic uses it to find out whether minors have used magic. This thing is usually applied to the wand. "

"So, this law is said to be used to restrain underage wizards, but in fact I think it is only used to restrain underage, Muggle-born wizards." Wright sarcastically said, "For those who are from wizarding families, For children, when they use magic, there is no warning from an adult; it all depends on the supervision of the wizard parent."

Harry was silent for a while, "Then what should we do now?"

"I originally brought Fat Head, but it would be better if you have Hedwig." Wright glanced at Hedwig, who was still hovering in the air. "Give Hedwig your wand and let it take her." Wand to St. Catchpole."

"Genius idea!" A bright smile appeared on Harry's face.
