Chapter 238 Black and Harry's Thanks
Chapter 238 Black and Harry's Thanks
After busying himself in the Forbidden Forest for a while, Sainz visited Hagrid and then returned to the castle.
"Sainz!" There were not many students in the auditorium today. Someone saw him and called him. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw his former classmate, Gulila Anfinsen.
"Oh, Gurira, how come you're alone and you didn't go to Hogsmeade either?"
"I went, um...but...I came back early...early."
"Yeah, I've been there a few times, but it's not that interesting, is it?"
"That's right, that's right, who wants to be with them!" Gulila said angrily.
Sainz didn't say anything, thinking to himself, "I guess he had a conflict with his friend."
For little wizards of this age, it is normal to have some minor conflicts between friends. They may have a big quarrel in the morning and swear never to talk to each other again, but they may not make it to the next day and will make up in the afternoon.
Of course, there are also those with bad tempers who will directly become enemies.
But these have nothing to do with Sai. He is not interested in listening to other people's gossip, let alone accepting other people's garbage emotions.
Sainz sat down and enjoyed his lunch quietly.
Seeing that he ignored her, Gulila sulked for a while, snorted coldly, and said angrily: "Professor Lupin told you to go see him when you are free, don't forget!" After that, she left without looking back.
Sainz said to her back: "Thank you for the message!"
He had some guesses in his mind that Lupin was looking for him, and it was probably because of the rat incident.
After dinner, he went upstairs and found the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office. Tutututu!
"Come in!"
"Professor Lupin, you're looking for me?"
"Ah, Mr. Autumn, I'm sorry, I was supposed to see you, but I couldn't find you. Come in."
"Professor, you're welcome!" Sainz walked slowly into the office.
Professors at Hogwarts can decide the decoration style of their own offices. Lupin's office is as simple as his clothes.
"Would you like a cup of tea?" Lupin looked around and found the teacup. "I was just about to make a cup of tea. Um... sorry... I only have tea here."
"Tea is the best," Sainz pretended not to notice Lupin's embarrassment and said frankly, "To be honest, the only drinks I usually drink are tea and boiled water. I never touch the hot cocoa and juice on the table."
He took the hot tea handed to him by Lupin and tapped the cup with his wand, dropping the temperature to the most palatable range. He took a sip and found it was very ordinary, probably the cheapest variety on the market.
"Professor, do you want to talk to me?"
"Well... actually it wasn't me who came to find you... it was someone else who came to find you, and he asked me to express his gratitude to you!" Lupin took out a small black leather bag from the drawer, put it on the table and pushed it over.
As expected, "Oh, it's Mr. Black. Professor, that's actually unnecessary. He should thank Dumbledore."
"Autumn, I hope you can accept this. If it weren't for you exposing Peter's true identity, Sirius might still be in hiding now."
"Okay, since you, professor, think I should accept it, then I'll accept it."
The debt of favor is the hardest to repay. Seeing Sainz accept the things, Lupin seemed to have let go of a worry and his expression was obviously much more relaxed.
Saiens hadn't intended to use these favors to do anything. Since the other party wanted to end the relationship, he might as well give them some reassurance.
He was not very familiar with the other party, so he stood up and said goodbye after drinking tea.
After returning to his own territory, Sainz opened the leather bag and took a look. It was an old-fashioned magic purse without the automatic following function, but it still had the basic counting function. The moment he opened it, he knew there were two thousand gold galleons in it.
How should I put it? For ordinary wizards, this thank-you gift is indeed generous, but for Sai, it is better than nothing.
He had originally hoped that there would be some so-called secret magic of the Black family in it.
Maybe the other party feels that giving money directly can show more sincerity, or maybe the other party did not expect that knowledge could be used as a thank you gift, or maybe the other party thought about it but was reluctant to give it.
Regardless of the details, he didn't expect to get anything from the other party anyway.
As he told Lupin, he tipped the matter off to Dumbledore instead of handling it himself, with no intention of having any friendship with him.
The reason for doing all this is because of Harry.
Even though Sainz never takes the initiative to contact Harry and every time he sees him it's just a coincidence, he still recognizes Harry's kindness in his heart.
It was the sacrifice of Harry's family that bought him precious time for development. If Voldemort had not run into a wall with Harry, even if he was not completely in power and had Dumbledore competing with him, the wizarding world would have been in turmoil. It is hard to say whether Mr. Sai could have completed the original accumulation so smoothly.
Although it was Harry's mother who was the real cause of Old Voldemort's death, she is no longer alive, so this favor has to be attributed to Harry.
Moreover, Harry became a Horcrux by chance, and he was destined to confront Voldemort in the future. It was largely due to luck that he was able to survive in the original trajectory. It is still unknown whether he can be so lucky this time.
Sainz revealed this matter in advance, allowing him to enjoy more care from his family, which is somewhat of a comfort.
Of course, Sai did these things only out of his own heart and did not need anyone's thanks, including Harry. He never thought of letting the other party know that he had helped him a lot.
He didn't need Harry's thanks.
During the dinner, he ran into Harry and his two companions in the auditorium. Harry ran over and said to him, "Thank you, Sainz!"
"Why?"
"About everything," Harry whispered, looking around and seeing that no one was paying attention, "I know everything. Dumbledore told me everything.
And, I thank you on behalf of Sirius!" He was filled with joy when he said this.
"Oh, it seems you have seen him!"
"Yes, today, at Hogwarts." Sainz could feel his joy. "It's really mysterious. I thought he was here to kill me... but... I didn't expect that he was my godfather! It's amazing!"
It seems that the child has forgiven Black's mistake. After all, it was he who took the initiative to give the position of the Secret-Keeper to the mouse. Otherwise, there would be no subsequent problems. Of course, Harry's parents themselves had problems. They actually rejected old Dumbledore and chose others just to maintain friendship. The eldest brother should not laugh at the second brother!
Sainz originally wanted Harry to tell him that he had someone to back him up and that his life would be much better at his aunt's house, but then he changed his mind and realized that it was not his turn to say these words, so he just expressed his blessings.
"Congratulations!"
"Thank you!" said Harry happily.
