Chapter 124 It’s Not Easy for Everyone

Wait, this is all so weird, so weird that Dudley is going to make a scene, and then Uncle Vernon slaps him to the ground, saying that he regrets not shooting this beast into the wall.

Harry doesn't understand how it is possible to shoot the seriously overweight Dudley into the wall. Is this a new shooting term in professional basketball in the United States?

This is just one of the small doubts, but it is overshadowed by other bigger doubts and even weirdness - is this couple really his uncle and aunt?

Could it be that someone drank the Polyjuice Potion to pretend?

It was not until they took the initiative to ask to sign the consent form to visit Hogsmeade that Harry realized that all this was true, and instantly associated it with Chen Bin.

Although it is now possible to find Sirius to sign, Chen Bin did deal with the Dursleys as quickly as agreed.

Harry couldn't wait to return to the room and call Chen Bin to ask him how he did it. Harry basically didn't ask if he did it, because he was the only one in the world who would do this.

Harry asked a lot of questions at the speed of a machine gun, and Chen Bin also guessed the general process from them.

Therefore, after his excitement subsided for a while, Chen Bin pretended to be a nouveau riche and said earnestly: "It's nothing, don't take it to heart. I have a lot of money, I will use money to beat him to death, scare him, make him cry, and make him kneel."

This tone is very annoying, but Harry couldn't refute his words.

After enough jokes, Chen Bin finally told the truth.

He occasionally purchases some goods that cannot be produced in other countries and sends them back to China, so he will see what products Granning Company has that China needs. Then, Chen Bin brought two Muggle employees today to represent "Weiguo Yisha International Trade Company" and negotiated with their boss about the drilling rig business worth hundreds of thousands of pounds.

It's not that Chen Bin is stingy and is only willing to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds, but China really doesn't like the drilling rigs of this country, so he can only buy some for his own use.

He pretended to meet Vernon by chance in the Grunning Company, and then enthusiastically entered his office on the tenth floor.

When Vernon closed the door, Chen Bin's face turned cold, and he took out his wand and cast a barrier spell and a whispering spell on the door, and then said a lot of sarcastic words.

The general idea was that Chen Bin was a moderate wizard and did not like to kill Muggles indiscriminately, but many radical wizards liked to kill parents who had been bad to wizards, such as the European Great Devil who was not yet dead, who killed his entire paternal Muggle bloodline.

Then, Chen Bin said that Harry's wrongly accused godfather had become an officer in the magic world, and his position was right-of-center, so he should pay attention to his attitude towards Harry, otherwise Merlin could not save him. If wizards kill Muggles without leaving any traces, it would be difficult to find the real culprit even if Muggles and the Ministry of Magic jointly investigated.

Chen Bin did not tell Harry that he gave Vernon a check for one million pounds in the end. He mainly focused on how Vernon was scared to death and sincerely reflected on himself.

In Chen Bin's eyes, the Dursleys are not bad in nature.

It's not the world that's wrong, but Old Dumbledore (no problem)!

This old man wants the Dursleys to feed Harry for free, without paying a dime. Who will treat the child well? This is a million times worse than freeloading, okay?

In addition to being sharp-tongued and face-loving, did the Dursleys really treat Harry badly?

The best is given to the child, and the rest is given to other people's children. This is a universal truth. Only the old Wang next door loves other people's children, because this child and his mother belong to him.

Chen Bin had a friend who immigrated to the UK in his previous life. The man was middle-class and the woman was white-collar. After giving birth to a child, they didn't hire a nanny. Instead, the wife quit her job to take care of the child because the nanny's salary was higher than that of the white-collar worker. In the end, the middle-class man would rather change jobs intermittently and then quit his job because the tax rate of the middle class was too high. This is not much different from receiving relief for a period of time and then working for a period of time. (Real event: He was the senior of the writer and was born in the same year as Harry.)

Petunia wrote a letter to recommend herself to enter school with Lily, but was rejected by Dumbledore. In addition, her parents favored Lily, who knew magic, so she hated everything related to magic, including Lily and James, and also Harry. Whenever people or things related to magic appeared around her, she would think of the memory of being treated unfairly, being ignored by her parents, and feeling like a loser since childhood.

Under the control of this mental illness, she saw that Dumbledore's letter clearly stated that she could only adopt Harry to protect him from Voldemort and the Death Eaters. Would her choice be to abandon Harry?

She tried to suppress her mental illness and turned into a bad nanny who paid for it. She raised Harry with all her heart, but she lacked the dedication of the neighbor Wang.

Vernon loved his wife very much and supported her decision unconditionally. She hated magic, and Vernon hated it with her without asking why. Vernon was a junior supervisor and Petunia was just a typist, but love could tolerate everything. Petunia wanted to adopt Harry, so Vernon, a junior executive, had to pay for the house, car, and child debts alone, and also had to bear the debt of a non-blood nephew.

The original two-income family became a single-income family. Vernon had less income but more burdens, and he had to ensure that he would not be fired during the recession in the 1980s.

In this harsh environment, is this easy?

To be frank, Harry lives in a detached house near the city with a garden and parking space. Do you have the nerve to say that this environment is abuse? Haven't you heard of a family of four living in a coffin house? Is he worthy of the eight million people in Hong Kong? Ahem, please ignore the first two sentences. Senior Inspector Chen Bin just remembered that he spent all his savings from more than ten years of police service in his previous life to exchange for a 50-square-meter wedding house... a down payment, just a down payment! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Is it easy?

"I know you have resentment in your hearts. The heavy burden from heaven almost crushed your happy family. It is the magic world that is sorry for you to take care of the descendants of martyrs for free." After Chen Bin said this, Vernon suddenly burst into tears.

He collapsed on the ground and said that he was not a human being and should not vent his anger on innocent children, but he really couldn't swallow this breath.

For the mortgage, for his wife and children, and to maintain a decent life for his family, he was about to be crushed by life. He often suffers from insomnia, but the next day he pretends to be confident and goes to work. However, he has to act like a grandson in front of customers, and he also has to keep his current position and earn more commissions.

Then, he showed Chen Bin a photo taken before his wedding. In it, there was a strong young man and a beautiful young lady who looked like Lily, but life tortured them into the current state.

"Penny's way of relieving stress is to gossip and hysterically gossip. The more she does this, the more energetic she is. If she doesn't do this, she can't eat and even falls ill. I can only relieve stress by eating non-stop. If I don't have food, I have to bite my fingers. If my fingers are broken, I bite the eraser. In short, if I stop eating, I will feel pressure. If I have a lot of pressure, I will lose confidence. If I have no confidence, I will have no performance. If I have no performance, it means I will pack up and leave. Leaving means that my family's life is over."

Seeing that there are a lot of bite marks on his fingers and the eraser on the table, Chen Bin's nose is a little sour. How similar is he in his previous life!

The middle-level police who strive for promotion need to work overtime every day, and his way to relieve stress is not eating, but doing exercise. Running home late at night to vent, doing push-ups in the office to vent, and even watching a movie with my wife. After receiving the news that the case was solved within a limited time, I had to do squats in the toilet cubicle to vent.

Is this easy? Don't want to continue? Don't want the small house of 50 square meters? There are still 24 years of loans to be repaid, and I have to watch every day whether the house prices will plummet. Is this easy?

Ahem, Chen Bin fell into memories again at this time.

Let's get back to the topic.

After Vernon vented, he tore up the check and said that his loan was almost paid off, so there was no need for more expenses.

Chen Bin looked into his eyes seriously, and he also looked into Chen Bin's eyes bravely.

Then, Chen Bin believed him. This is not the intuition of a police officer. Using intuition to solve a case will lead to jail.

Vernon's eyes and expression now are exactly the same as when he stood in front of his wife and children in the first episode of the movie and fought against the giant Hagrid. Although he doesn't have a shotgun in his hand now, the tension, cowardice and retreat on his face are all mixed into a resolute and serious expression.

At that moment, Vernon dared to risk his life to fire at the unknown giant. In addition to protecting his wife and children, he was also protecting Harry, who was not related by blood. He had never been to the magical world, and only heard his wife describe wizards as a group of freaks, and Harry's parents were killed by powerful freaks.

Therefore, even if he was a small person, he would protect Harry according to his best judgment-forbidding Harry to go to the freak world that killed his parents, rather than offering Harry in exchange for the safety of his family.

Let me say it again, is it easy for a small person?

Chen Bin believed him, so he sent another check for 1 million and advised him not to "tear up" again. This was the gratitude of the Potters, and he was just a person who carried out the mission.

Before leaving, Chen Bin patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Wizards can also be divided into justice and evil. But I can guarantee that the wizards who appear peacefully in front of you are all good people who are desperately protecting your family. So, try not to hate wizards and magic."

He didn't care whether Vernon would listen to this, but just finished speaking and left the company quickly.

Does Chen Bin have the nerve to say that he is very hurt?

How many 50-square-meter houses can be bought in Hong Kong with 1 million pounds in 1994? ! ? This is not a matter of money, but a resentment from the previous life - a lifetime of savings and 25 years of mortgage payments only get 50 square meters, but how many forty years are there in a lifetime?

He casually gave away more than a dozen forty years in his previous life! ! ! ! !

Before hanging up the phone, Chen Bin said to Harry: "Your uncle and aunt don't hate you, but they hate magic. Also, they don't owe you anything, but you owe them. So, be patient in everything, it's not easy for everyone..."

"Bin, why did you say the last sentence with a tremor?" Harry on the other end of the microphone asked strangely.

Chen Bin sniffed and said calmly, "It's nothing. You can secretly check your uncle's salary, and then look at the family's expenses and repayments. It doesn't matter if you can't calculate. Tell these data to Hermione and she will tell you how difficult it is. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. Bye."
