This summer, Harry Potter returns to number four, Privet Drive.

In fact, this is not what he is willing to do. If he had to choose, he would never come back here at all... What he really hopes is to go to Grimmauld Place and spend a good time with his godfather Sirius Black. , A completely different summer vacation than before.

But this request was rejected by Sirius.

"Before you are seventeen years old, you still have to return to Privet Drive." Sirius said at the time: "This is what Professor Dumbledore asked many times before his death, and must be followed."

Harry didn't understand at all what the point of going back to Privet Drive; even if there was magic to keep him safe, Voldemort had fled England long ago.

Staying here just means spending a meaningless time with my uncle and aunt again.

Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia, and Cousin Dudley, they are Harry's only relatives in the world. Their attitude towards magic is almost in the middle ages, and their attitude towards Harry is one of fear and disgust.

But fortunately, he only needs to stay in this place for another month or so. On July 31 this year, Harry Potter will be seventeen years old. Say goodbye to the wizarding world altogether.

Night fell over Little Whinging, and Harry scanned the starry sky, trying to have some fun in the sky.

At this moment, Harry saw an owl flying in from the window, it was a big gray owl, it looked very old, it flew to Harry's bed with a plop, and then fell down. Moved. At the same time, Harry noticed that there was a letter chained to its leg.

Harry recognized the unconscious owl right away - its name was Errol, and it belonged to the Weasleys. Immediately he rushed to the bed, unwrapped Errol's leg, took down the package, and placed Errol in Hedwig's cage. Errol opened one bleary eye, made a sound of thanks, and took a few sips of water.

Corresponding with friends in Hogwarts through owls, Harry's half summer vacation at Privet Drive is one of the few entertainment content.

Harry sat on the bed, grabbed the letter that Errol had brought, and tore open the outer brown paper. In addition to a letter, there was also a newspaper clipping inside.

The figures in the clipping are animated and appear to have been cut from the Daily Prophet.

Harry picked up the clipping, smoothed it out, and read the following:

Sir Arthur Weasley, Director of the Office of Detection and Seizure of Counterfeit Defensive Spells and Protective Objects at the Ministry of Magic, recently won the Daily Prophet's annual Grand Prix, the Galleon Award. In addition to the bonus of 700 Galleons, the content of this award also includes a free one-month trip to Greece for up to five people. Mr. Arthur Weasley and his family will be able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Balkan Peninsula .

"Mr. Weasley won the lottery again?" Harry couldn't help being stunned.

In his memory, Mr. Weasley won the Galleon Award of the "Daily Prophet" four years ago. He did not expect his luck to be so good, and he won the prize again this year.

But Harry couldn't think of anyone more deserving of such a large sum of money than the Weasleys, who were a nice family, if also somewhat poor.

Harry quickly picked up the letter again:

"Dear Harry,

I can't believe it, but my dad has won the lottery again, and this time it comes with a free January trip to Greece.

It's a pity that this year's situation is not so good. Bill and Charlie have already gone abroad to work on the Order of the Phoenix. Percy has not been in touch with his family all year round. George and Fred need to stay in London to take care of their small shop... Do the math , besides Mom and Dad, only Ginny and I can go to Greece together. So I thought about it and added your name to the list of five people..."

"Greece? Travel?" Harry was taken aback.

I thought it would take a month of monotony at Number Four Privet Drive, but if I could do a trip to Greece... that would be awesome!

But would Sirius agree to go to Greece himself? You must know that as the godfather, he didn't even allow himself to leave Privet Drive for half a step within this month.

Harry quickly lowered his head and continued to read the contents of the letter:

"...My father went to the Order of the Phoenix to discuss it with your godfather. Sirius firmly opposed you leaving your uncle and aunt's house at first. But it seems that Jon Hart persuaded him, and he could only agree with some unwillingness in the end. up.

In addition, after thinking about it for a while, Sirius decided to go to Greece with us at his own expense, saying that he wanted to fulfill the duties of the godfather. Our trip of five will turn into a trip of six.

According to the arrangement of the "Daily Prophet", the trip will start on July 2nd. My father will go to your uncle's house the day before to pick you up at The Burrow. Please prepare your luggage in advance.

Ron Weasley"

Harry was so happy that he jumped out of bed.

July 2nd, the day after tomorrow... a one-month trip, which means that the last day of the trip is Harry Potter's seventeenth birthday.

There is no more perfect news than this, he only needs to spend today and tomorrow in Privet Drive, and then he will be able to say goodbye to this place completely, and never have to come back here again!

...

At the same time, at Greengrass Manor.

Astoria-Greengrass also received a letter, and after patiently reading the contents of the letter, her face turned slightly red, and at the same time, she seemed unable to contain the joy in her heart.

"What's the matter, Astoria?" Her older sister Daphne asked in surprise.

"Look at this..." Astoria handed the letter in her hand to Daphne.

Daphne lowered her head and finished reading the contents of the letter——

"Greece... a one-month trip..." she said softly, blinking at the same time: "Sounds great, Greece should be beautiful..."

"It's rare that Jon actually has time, I have to pack up..." Astoria hurriedly stood up: "It seems like two days before we are leaving."

"Astoria..." Daphne said in a strange way, "How about I go with you?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she realized that this sentence was not suitable.

She smiled awkwardly, and added: "It's okay... I'm just joking, it's just a joke."

Astoria glanced at her sister, hesitated for a moment, and said seriously, "Yes..."

"...I'll write to Jon and ask for his opinion."
