Hogwarts Melon Eater

Chapter 180: harry, fairy tale, christmas eve

"Huh?" Harry picked up the painting that had fallen on the ground, took off the messy yarn tangled on it, and unfolded it.

The painting is a few years old, and the corners have begun to turn yellow. It shows three children, two boys with brown hair and blue eyes, and a girl with long hair.

The two boys looked slightly older and taller, standing upright in front of the wooden house, showing their white teeth and looking warm and sunny.

The girl has beautiful long curly hair, smiles shyly, wears a long light-colored dress, and holds a small brown book in her hand.

Harry looked at the painting carefully, and found that one of the boys seemed to have seen it himself, "Huh? Dyce?" He approached the glowing wand and tried to see more clearly, but suddenly heard a small noise from outside the wooden house, startling He had to quickly put out the wand light.

Sirius pricked up his ears, jumped off the sofa, and sniffed the air as he walked towards the door. The smell of damp wood, rotting fruit, dry plants, um... something burnt... and some blood. …

\'Hide quickly! Harry! \' Sirius let out a low growl, biting Harry's cloak and dragging him under the bed.

Harry sensed something was wrong. Not only was the **** acting abnormally, but he also had a bad premonition that some danger was approaching. \'Little wizards should trust their intuition, most of the time they were quite accurate\', recalled Ron's usual muttering, Harry swiftly crawled under the bed.

He chose the middle bed, because there were gaps on the left and right sides, which made it easy to escape. Sirius lay beside Harry and tucked his tail in with difficulty. At the bottom of such a narrow bed, a child and a long The big-legged dog is still a bit too reluctant, but it is not impossible.

Time passed by minute by minute, there was no movement in the room, and there was silence outside the room. With the warm bed and the quiet atmosphere, the sleep-deprived Harry's eyelids began to tremble. After five seconds, he was finally defeated by sleepiness.

\'Maybe I'm too nervous\', Sirius sniffed again and found that the **** smell was still there, but it had dissipated a lot.

"Kacha——" The silence of the wooden house was broken by the sudden sound of the door opening.

Someone walked into the wooden house, barefoot, showing half of his calf, it was a man, Sirius was very sure, because no lady could have such thick leg hair, like wearing woolen pants.

"Cough cough..." The man's violent cough woke Harry up, the narrow bed made him think he was in the Dursleys' closet for a while, and Aunt Petunia's sharp voice 'go fry the eggs' There was no sound, but Harry slowly woke up.

Harry heard the sound of crying, and then the sound of the wine bottle shattering. It seemed that someone stepped on the wine bottle on the ground. "Boom-" The heavy object fell to the ground, and the man fell.

He seemed so sad that he didn't want to stand up, so he just lay on the ground, tears and snot flowing together, "Arianna... Ariana..." The man muttered a name, "How could I forget you..."

Suddenly, the man's voice stopped, because he turned his head and faced the direction of the bed, just to see two pairs of eyes under the bed, one pair of shiny green eyes, the other pair of gray eyes piercing.

Such a terrible scene almost suffocated the man.

"Goatman!" Fortunately, Harry's cry made the goatman lying on the ground slow down. He remembered the sound and remembered that Harry rescued his boy at the hotel.

"Why are you here? Mr. Goatman!" Harry crawled out from under the bed and suddenly felt that he had seen Goatman somewhere before. He looked at the painting in his hand, and Dais stood next to this If a boy is in his thirties, he will probably look like a goat...

"This is my home," the goatman took the drawing from Harry. "Of course I can be here, and that's all I have left." He took the handkerchief from his left hand, where the scratched The wound had healed, and the Goatman was going to return the dirty handkerchief directly to Harry, instead of letting it be cleaned and sprayed with perfume.

The two didn't mention the werewolf, but Harry knew very well that the goatman was a werewolf, and although the place where the pitchfork pierced his leg stopped bleeding, he still had a terrible scar.

Harry frowned and squeezed the handkerchief, calmly putting it in the pocket of his cloak, "Mr. Goatman, you know Daesh, and he's on this painting, standing next to you."

Goatman was silent for a moment. "Yes," he said. "I know him, but his name is not Dais."

"That's my brother, Albus, Albus Dumbledore."

He paused for a while, "That girl is my sister, the dead Ariana, the most innocent and kind girl, and I...I'm not called a goat, my name is Aberforth, Aberforth Dumbledore, A werewolf."

"?" Goatman is a werewolf, it's not hard to guess, but Harry and Sirius are a little dazed at the moment, why does the story of Principal Dumbledore's house appear in the story of the poet Bedouin? Shouldn't it be the same name?

Sirius shook his head, the possibility was very small, because Headmaster Dumbledore actually had a younger brother, the grumpy Aberforth, who ran the Hogs' Head Bar in Hogsmeade.

As for whether Headmaster Dumbledore has a younger sister, I don't know. Headmaster Dumbledore never mentioned it, nor did Boss Aberforth.

"Your brother...well...but Dess looks very young," Harry rubbed his head. "At most, he's just a grown man," and you look like you're in your forties.

"It's really rude, the werewolf was going to look older," the goat man coughed, "cough, but Albus does look very young."

"That's because he's not a werewolf, and he has some strange little abilities, but the most fundamental reason is because he was the only one who crossed the river and got some gadgets," the goatman lowered his head and pinched the painting in his hand. , and then carefully smoothing out the folds and rolling it up nicely.

"You know the three brothers, right? Rumor has it that the three brothers crossed the river and received a gift from the **** of death, but in fact those were all fake news spread by the village chief to attract tourists—"

"You saved me...I'll tell you the truth..."

The Goatman laid his injured leg flat, and Harry could see that the horrific wound was slowly healing, "The three brothers were not originally three brothers, they didn't know each other, they were just travelers who arrived at Fairyland Village on the same day, Albus. I met one of them when I went out to pick mushrooms, and they dealt with monsters together, and then they became friends..."

"Later, Albus invited the boy to the house, and I saw him, with blond hair and a wild smile, he could make the sofa at home fly, he had the same ability as Albus, maybe he was more powerful , so that the villagers who come to find fault can forget what they are doing, and then go back with a slap in the face..."

The goat man frowned, "Albus likes his friend, but I don't like that blond hair. He behaves very politely, but when he looks at me and Ariana, his eyes are always... disgusting..."

"He wanted to take Albus to the capital and go there to realize their...plan...I didn't know what it was at the time, and they didn't tell me, I just knew what they were always muttering about\'for the greater good\' '…”

\'For the greater good? \'Dog Sirius sitting beside him pondered, this sentence...Did Professor Binns mention it when he was in the history of magic before? Sirius felt a little regretful. He should have listened carefully to the class when he was in school. It would have been nice if Remus was here, he definitely knew that.

"And then? Mr. Aberforth?" Harry sat cross-legged on the ground, listening to the story.

"And then... Albus was hesitant, wondering if he should follow that person, because Ariana and I."

"We all became werewolves after being bitten by a black werewolf outside the village when we were young. I wasn't bitten deeply, and the time to become a werewolf was very short. Most of the time, I could control my behavior, and Ariana's situation Seriously, she almost lost an arm at the time, and then she turned into a werewolf when she was emotional, hurting those around her—"

"So it's usually me watching Ariana at home and asking Albus to go out and bring back food, and if he leaves with his friends, life with Ariana will be more difficult..."

The goat guy was silent for a while, "Suddenly one day, Albus didn't come back very late, so I had to go out to find him, and finally found Albus drinking with the blond hair in the tavern, celebrating the smooth crossing of the river."

"\'I asked him what was on the other side of the river, and Albus took out a gem, a stick, and a cloak, saying that there was no death on the other side of the river, only these three things."

The goat man glanced at the cape on Harry's body, "Albus's friend is leaving the stick, and Albus and I also returned home, but Ariana disappeared. She ran to the village to find us, but was caught by \ The other two of the 'Three Brothers' ran into..."

"They are complete bastards," the goat man gritted his teeth, "what did they do to make Ariana emotionally unstable, revealing a part of the werewolf form, the two **** screamed and called a lot of villagers, and the kind Ali Anna is trying her best to control herself to avoid hurting others..."

"They took Ariana to the river...trying to drown her, but they happened to meet the boy..."

"Which boy?" Harry was a little confused.

"That's what I said at the beginning, Albus's friend, the one with the blond hair, the one who's leaving the stick—they're all the same person, and Albus is just this friend."

"Did he save Ariana?" Maybe it didn't work, Harry thought, and poor Ariana died in the end.

"He saved," Harry didn't expect to hear such an answer, staring at the goat man, "he...killed everyone except Ariana, with that stick, Albus and I When we arrived, we only saw corpses all over the place, which terrified us!"

"He pointed to the corpse on the ground and said \'If you don't resist, the monster will always be considered evil and will always be hurt\', and he invited Albus to leave, go with him, and go to the capital to overthrow the human king. To rule, to build a nation where magical creatures are superior to humans..."

"\'In this way, won't the life of you and your younger siblings get better and better? You don't have to hide anymore,\'The boy is so bewitched by Albus, of course I can't let him do what he wants, this murderer The devil just wanted to take my brother, that's what I thought..." Goatman paused for a moment, "so I decided to stop him."

Harry swallowed. "Did you make it?"

"Huh? Success?" Goatman touched his head, "That was the stupidest thing I've ever done in my life - a white light flashed, and pain swept through me, I fainted, and before I closed my eyes, I saw a Busi took out a stick and pointed it at his only friend, and Arianna stepped forward to stop it..."

"When I woke up, Albus held Ariana's body and told me that she fell into the river and drowned, but Ariana's clothes were not wet, and his lies were always clumsy..." Goatman lowered his head, "I punched Albus in the nose and buried Ariana."

"Did the blond boy kill Ariana? Mr. Goatman?"

"I don't know~lightnovelpub.net~ Goatman rubbed his head," I didn't see that scene, and since then, I haven't seen the boy again, Albus moved to the other side of the river, rarely Appeared in the village, because his appearance has not changed in any way for so many years. "

Harry fell silent, digesting the tale that wasn't like a fairy tale.

The goat man also fell silent, and looked out of the window with vacant eyes, the sky was gradually getting brighter, "Christmas Eve..." he muttered, and quickly stood up from the ground on the sofa, Harry found the wound on his leg. has completely healed.

"Where's your uncle? The one who looks smart," Goatman thought of Lupin, who was with Harry when he came. "Stayed at the hotel?"

"No, no... He went to find the "Old Man Jumping Pot"! He should be back soon!"

The goat guy shook his head, "That's not necessarily coming back soon... Forget it... I'll follow you to find him, you can't stay here forever, the village chief and hunters will find you sooner or later, it's just a matter of time."
