Crazy, Peter felt that either the world was crazy or he was crazy.
How could that guy named Arnie Scamander be so kind?
Appearance defects have a great impact on people. Living with contempt and malicious ridicule since childhood, most people will become cowardly and inferior, while a small number of people will become extreme and crazy.
Only a handful of people can develop a strong heart, and if such a person is given the opportunity, he will achieve impressive results.
Clearly, Peter is not a minority, a minority, or even a majority.
He is a combination of the three, and cannot be said to be inhumane, but in Peter's life, all he considers when rationality prevails is himself.
Because during his childhood, no one except his mother cared about him and loved him. As for the eyes of admiration, appreciation, respect, and kindness, he was never paid attention to.
Until his 11th birthday, an owl flew into his window, and a short, fat little wizard appeared in the Great Hall of Hogwarts.
Sirius Black, James Potter, Remus Lupin, he knew what friends were for the first time, and those were Peter's happiest days.
Maybe Peter once stood on the tower and silently told himself that he had no choice before, but now he wants to be a good person.
Unfortunately, what determines destiny is often not sharing when the wind is favorable, but perseverance in adversity.
If he hadn't met Voldemort, he might have been filled with smiles throughout his life.
But there are no ifs in reality. Life requires choices. It is ultimately up to you to decide whether to choose left or right, and you must bear all the luck and misfortune yourself.
Wrong decisions will harm others and yourself, and correct decisions may not harm yourself and others.
Complaining about the unfairness of the world, blaming the indifference of all sentient beings, and hating myself for being incompetent, but in this damn war, what use are these?
People, whether wizards or Muggles, are just dolls of fate.
All fortunes are determined by heaven and cannot be controlled by humans.
This is what Peter thinks, the self-comfort of a timid loser.
As long as he firmly believes in the above, he can blame all his mistakes on fate with peace of mind.
Therefore, Peter admitted the evil in his heart, but he was not ashamed of it. He was just forced to have no choice but to do so!
In fact, this short, fat man with poor appearance is not completely conscienceless. When facing those kind and willing people, he thinks he is respectful on the surface but full of disdain and ridicule in his heart. But in fact, deeper in his heart It will also breed a trace of envy and admiration that you are not even aware of.
When he heard Aini standing outside the door with concern and greetings, he even changed his mind for a moment - if it was not Voldemort who appeared in front of him that year, but someone like Aini...
But then the strange fluorescence that shined through the door changed all the words floating in Peter's heart into swear words.
"Professor Scamander, thank you for your kindness, but I just want to be alone for a while."
"Well, as you wish, sir. Remember to call me when you need help. Goodbye."
After gathering another handful of black wool, Ani left the door of Peter's office with satisfaction. But surprisingly, there were a few small pieces of white wool mixed in, which made him get to know Peter better.
The human heart is labeled complex, not only because of the complicated thoughts that fill it, but also because even it itself cannot fully understand the thoughts inside.
Even without Peter's refusal, Ani had no time to continue "playing" with him. Just when the power of purification had just been transmitted, a silver-white bird landed on his shoulder.

No. 12, Bourton Street, Little Whinging, London.
Vernon tensely glanced out the window. The streets were empty, with no vehicles, pedestrians, or uninvited guests.
The pendulum swung its body laboriously in the hope that the two lazy hands could move accurately to where they should go.
Seventy-six minutes is the time. For this reason, the pendulum keeps "clicking", as if to say: "
Look, that's all my fault.藲忿尛螞网
This is the time that belongs to the housewife. Only Petunia is still busy in the kitchen. At the same time as the symphony of pots and pans, there is also the sound of fierce exchanges of fire in the activity room.
"Two little brats."
Listening to the children's unexplained shouts, Vernon spat out of habit, and his nearly broken back suddenly relaxed.
Smelling the scent of a happy family, Vernon touched his waist, which had lost at least three feet, and convinced himself that the visitor might not be so scary after a while.
And just then, the doorbell rang.
Vernon opened the door and saw a warm smiling face.
Perhaps it was because of the smile, a universal language, perhaps because of the young face of the other party, or of course, perhaps because of Aini's regular dress, which made the visitor look completely different from the crazy wizard in Vernon's impression.
Anyway, Vernon suddenly felt less nervous.
Although he had confirmed before that no one was walking on the street, but so what? It is normal for wizards to have some strange methods.
Since the ice-breaking relationship with Harry, the wizard's various creations have truly improved the Dursley family's life. After receiving the benefits, they no longer resist magic.
How many of the things people hate are because they can’t get them? No one can tell this clearly.
"Professor Scamander?"
Vernon looked at the young man in front of him. He seemed to have an indescribable bearing on him, which made his tone seem to be filled with respect.
"Hello, Mr. Dursley. My name is Aeneas Scamander. I'm sorry for the intrusion."
Ani stretched out his right hand and shook Vernon's hand. The decent etiquette made Vernon's impression of him even better.
When a smile appeared on his face, Mr. Dursley was shocked to realize that he had shown a friendly attitude to a strange wizard when they first met.
Simply incredible!
What's even more incredible is that Vernon knew that he would soon take the initiative to ask this "weird" from his past memories to enter his family.
If someone had told him all this two years ago, he would have thought either the other person was crazy or he was crazy.
Now he is not crazy, but he has indeed changed, and Vernon believes that this change will make him have a better life.
Dali's strong body, Penny's disappearing crow's feet, and his own belly that has returned to the world of fat, all endorse his transformation.
Facts have proven that many barriers in the world, including the inherent prejudices of people, are vulnerable to real benefits.
"It is our honor to have you here, please come in, Professor Scamander."
Vernon took a step back and gave way to the door, letting the other person's eyes focus on the place behind him that he had been protecting. The next moment, this strange wizard would enter his home.
He hopes that this will not be a wrong decision, he hopes that his family can live a good life, he hopes that the family relationship will last forever and be more mellow, he hopes...
In fact, Mr. Dursley doesn't trust Ernie, and he didn't trust Harry before, but now he is willing to trust the child he raised since childhood, and he is also willing to tentatively get in touch with the fears and longings he once had.
Time will tell him that his trust was not misplaced.
Hope, it's a good thing.
