"Nott, there are several other families who already want to do harm to you, and even look for opportunities to knock you into the bottom." Taylor's expression was quite serious.
But Luke still looked unhurried, looking at the headdress in his hand with a look of nostalgia on his face.
"When chatting with you, old Flint seemed very friendly, but in fact he had no intention of helping you, and even wanted to see you in trouble. The old man of the Avery family seemed to be very enthusiastic towards you, but in fact I don’t know why, but he wants to harm you, Luke, you have to be careful about the Avery family.”
Taylor gave Luke a serious warning, but seeing that Luke didn't listen, he helplessly pushed away Luke's hand on his head and said, "Although Barty Crouch said so, He said some very warm words, but he doubted why you wanted to help him. But when he said he owed you a favor, he really meant it."
At this point, Taylor's eyes showed some doubts: "What did you help him with? Does he think he owes you a favor?"
Barty Crouch, a man who was supposed to be the Minister of Magic. But because of his own son, he was overtaken by Cornelius Fudge. But even so, now that the Minister of Magic is about to be replaced, he is still a highly popular successor.
Why does such an influential figure in the British wizarding world, who wants status, family background, and strength, owe Luke such a favor?
"I helped him convince two schools. These two schools will join forces to convince the third school."
Luke smiled mysteriously: "This is an activity he has been promoting. I did him a solid favor."
Taylor looked at Luke with a surprised look on his face: "You actually helped him re-launch the 'Triwizard Tournament'!"
This is indeed a big favor. I want to convince the principals of the two schools to risk the lives of their students to participate in such a competition. The benefits to be divided are really too great.
After all, not every school principal is as powerful as Dumbledore. The vast majority of principals like Madame Maxime were basically doomed after being put under pressure by the school board after a life-threatening lawsuit.
But they naturally have needs for such things. This in itself is gambling. As long as you win, the school will become famous, get corresponding merits, and be able to continue. It’s not like I was suddenly hit by someone that day.
But failure means the possibility of impeachment. Even if everyone wants to gamble, someone has to make the side effects of the whole thing not so unacceptable.
"I haven't paid much for now. There are still many things to take care of in the future." Luke said frankly to Taylor, "Actually, the main reason is that I can have a certain influence on the position of Madame Maxime, the principal of Beauxbatons. The threat. At the same time, as long as I take the initiative to protect her, even if someone is killed, Madame Maxime will not step down, but if she does not agree to my request..."

"Then she was going to step down." Taylor gave Luke a strange look, "You really are..."
But after thinking about it, she didn't say anything. After all, it was still beneficial to them in the final analysis.
Although the winner of the Three Witches Tournament is not much of a bargaining chip in itself, it can indeed be used as one of the steps to advance. It's a big piece of cake for Luke.
"So do you have anything else to do this summer?"
Taylor finally sorted himself out. She stood up and asked, holding a pile of new clothes Luke bought for her.
Luke casually took off his ceremonial robe, revealing the white shirt underneath, threw himself into the sofa, shook his head and said, "My 'journey' is finally over."
"I'm going to enjoy my vacation. Put all that stuff aside."
Of course, with what he said, Luke knew that he still couldn't completely avoid many things after all, and at most he wouldn't have to come forward.
Taylor nodded: "Then I will come to you if I have time."
After saying that, she saw Luke's somewhat surprised look.
"You have some books at home that I'm interested in!"
Taylor said angrily. She knew that Luke must be thinking wrongly. The little wizards themselves know a lot about things, and their atmosphere is relatively open. More importantly, Luke is still a noble.
The stories about young aristocratic young men can be regarded as horror stories in some families to scare little girls.
"Oh. That's no problem." Luke nodded and said seriously, "I'll give you a special mark later, otherwise you won't be able to enter my library."
"Of course, even if they are marked, you can't access some books in the library. If you are interested, just call me and I will get them for you."
Luke is generous to his own people. Especially for someone like Taylor, he would definitely satisfy all the requirements that he could satisfy.
This is just to read some books, not to take the books away. It's not a big deal.
Taylor also nodded with satisfaction. When she told her grandma that she could see the Gaunt family's private library, her grandma was very excited at first, and then looked at her with a strange look. He asked indirectly how far he and Luke had developed.
He also told himself to be careful about Luke and not let him succeed easily.
But Taylor decided to come often, and even stay for a while, because he really just wanted to read.
At best, he could just stay close to Luke so he could ask questions. By the way, let's see if Luke can stir up any unacceptable scandals during the remaining short period of summer vacation.
With this thought in mind, she turned around and walked into another room to change clothes.
Luke slumped on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling, his deep eyes filled with thought.
………………
Time flies so fast, no matter how reluctant you are to leave, summer vacation is coming to an end.
As school was about to start, Harry never imagined that after giving his uncle's family a blow at the beginning of the summer vacation, he would still suffer serious consequences.
He could have spent a summer vacation dominating the Dursleys. After all, he is a vicious dark wizard who likes to experiment with frogs, toads, and other things. The impression has already been left in the Dursleys. Become deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Even Dudley would be extra polite when he opened his door and found him playing with a mouse skull in front of the cauldron.
The thing he felt most regretful about during the summer vacation was that his friends had clearly agreed to communicate with each other. But no one wrote to me. But he finally found out that it wasn't that his friends didn't write letters to care about him, but that their letters had all been intercepted by an elf named Dobby.
He was furious, and the elf told such nonsense that he would die if he returned to Hogwarts.
It really made no sense. If someone really wanted to harm him, wouldn't it be more dangerous to stay with three Muggles than with Luke and Dumbledore?
He didn't even believe it when he said it.
But their dispute ultimately ruined Uncle Vernon's big business. Dobby is a real pain in the ass.
To make matters worse, after a letter from the Ministry of Magic, the Dursleys found out that he couldn't use charms outside of school. This made them think they had a great advantage.
It wasn't until Harry was annoyed that he brewed a pot of a relatively powerful potion that Taylor taught him. And turned Dudley's favorite toy into a puddle of water.
Seeing the angry and timid expressions of the Dursleys, and hearing their final words of concession, Harry didn't feel any happy feeling.
Although he put on a ferocious look in time and shocked the Dursleys, the relationship between them completely reached a freezing point afterwards.
Harry became the transparent person in the family. Only Dudley would show an expression of fear but disgust when he saw him. Harry knew the look on his face. Ever since that incident at the zoo last year, he'd been looking at snakes that way.
Apparently, Harry became a snake in Dudley's eyes that would endanger his life.
As adults, Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia were able to do some things that Dudley couldn't, such as completely ignoring Harry.
They would still cook for Harry. But he wouldn't talk to Harry during the meal, or even give him a look.
Their lives were orderly and nothing bothered Harry. But he didn't say hello or talk to Harry either.
It was as if Harry didn't exist.
Harry did nothing more outrageous to attract their attention. He knew he was doing something wrong, so he fell into a pattern of making mistakes.
Fortunately, such days did not last long. Otherwise, Harry didn't know what he would do. After all, it was only a few days, and he was so bored that he already found boiling potions and reading magic books to be very interesting pastimes.
By the way, it's worth mentioning that Harry finally got his letters.
The next day after being ignored, he began to read the letters from which he had missed almost an entire summer vacation.
He saw Ron's letter, and the handwriting of Long Feifengwu was indeed easy to read. Hermione's letter was neatly handwritten, even neater than the ones she had received in school before. Of course, there is also Hagrid's letter, the scrawled handwriting is so unforgettable.

Taylor also had letters. Told him several other possible potion recipes. When he saw this letter, he wanted to reply and thank Taylor, telling her that without her help, his summer vacation would be very difficult.
But thinking about his current situation, Harry was a little confused for a moment. The effect of the magic potion is very good, but is there really no problem with my own treatment method?
Finally, he saw the letter from Luke. In the letter, Luke said that he would not have time to write to Harry for a long time and asked him not to be anxious. If there was anything he could tell him first, wait until he saw it. Letter, I will definitely reply.
This letter was sent at the beginning of summer vacation. But now, it was almost the end of summer vacation, and Harry just saw this letter.
He thought for a while and finally told Luke all his difficulties. He felt that the only person who could give him a suitable answer and solution was Luke.
But he hasn't received a reply yet. He was there the next night. He saw Ron waiting at his door.
When he packed his bags and prepared to go to the Burrow with Ron and the others to spend the rest of their summer vacation, Harry could clearly see the strange look of disgust and relief on the faces of the Dursleys.
By the way,,,..version. 】
This made him feel a little complicated.
This complexity reaches its peak when he receives Luke's letter at the Burrow.
"Harry, what you did is not wrong, because you safeguarded your own interests. They were indeed too mean to you. From this point of view, it is understandable even if you hate them. But equally, I can see it , you don’t really hate them, you are even a little grateful for their upbringing. This is not a mistake, on the contrary, your character is an important reason why I am willing to be friends with you."
"The main problem with this incident is that it was excessive. Your handling was excessive, and their emotions were also excessive. If you are willing to apologize, although I don't think your relationship will be harmonious, it will not cause you to experience being ignored again. But if you don’t want to apologize, there’s nothing wrong with it, and you don’t have to take the risk of being seen as cowardly and causing the other party to get worse. Leave the matter to time. After a year of study and life, the grievances between you will also be resolved. Flushed."
"I'm not going to make a decision for you, or even give you advice, Harry. I'll just tell you that both options have their own pros and cons. Make your own decision. Only your own decision, Resentment is avoided when you are remorseful. Resentment is a worse emotion than regret."
After reading Luke's letter, Harry thought for a long time and finally decided to write a letter explaining the situation. He didn't apologize. Because based on his understanding of the Dursleys, this might be regarded as a mockery after ruining the other party's business.
He said in the letter that he had settled well in the village and would go to school by himself when school started, so they didn't need to worry. After arriving at school, I will write to them.
He declined Mrs. Weasley's offer to send letters by owl. Accompanied by Mr. Weiss, we came to a small town near the burrow and sent the letter through the post office there.

The moment Harry walked out of the post office, he felt extremely relaxed.
He didn't care if the letter would put the Dursleys at ease. But now, he feels much more relaxed.
Then the main purpose of sending this letter has been achieved.
After living in the Burrow and the lively Weasley family for a period of time, receiving the care of Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, and countless adoring looks from Ginny, Harry and the others received this year's book list. Ginny is also preparing to enroll in school this year.
So Wes came to take Harry with his family and came to Diagon Alley.
