Chapter 178: The Mirror of Erised!!

~5 min read 844 words

Filch ran off into the distance, and Harry let out a fierce sigh of relief. Yet he also felt a bit dejected.

It had been clearly agreed that he would go to protect Darren, but in the end, it was Darren who protected him.

And he didn't even know if Darren had been caught by Filch now.

If he had been caught, he felt he wouldn't have the face to call himself Darren's brother in the future.

Harry stood in place, crestfallen.

He glanced at Mrs. Norris, who was still meowing at him, and kicked her in annoyance.

"Enough, can't you stop meowing? Why can't you be like Lezi and just nap all day?"

"Meow!"

That kick from Harry clearly made Mrs. Norris very angry; she yowled loudly, keeping a tight watch on Harry, looking exactly like an officer of the law who had caught a thief.

"Oh god! I was wrong, please stop meowing!"

Harry was startled; he seemed to have already heard the sound of Mr. Filch rushing over.

"Sir, right here, I felt there was something wrong here just now, but a student suddenly appeared and scared me, so I followed him.

As it turns out, with Mrs. Norris meowing like this, it's clear that the intruder hasn't run away yet.

I believe an invisible intruder is naturally more important than a student!"

"Oh, yes, yes, Filch, you're doing the right thing; perhaps there is some heinous scoundrel inside, you've done a great deed..."

Harry froze.

He swore he heard Snape's mocking voice. It even seemed to carry a cold smile.

It was almost as if he were telling him, I will definitely catch you. Run!

Harry immediately took off running from where he stood.

He might be able to fool Filch, but he certainly couldn't fool Snape. Snape was like an old dog, able to smell his scent and then drag him out.

Just as he said, he would hang him upside down in the dungeon's dark room and punish him with Dark Magic.

"Harry, over here!"

Just as Harry was leading Snape on a chase, he suddenly heard Darren's voice.

Then a hand grabbed him and pulled him into a room.

"Darren?"

"It's me!"

Darren took off the Invisibility Cloak and looked at Harry with some helplessness.

He had already lured Filch away, yet this guy didn't run quickly and was still there kicking a cat; clearly, he had been retaliated against by Filch.

"Thank goodness, finally saw you, but how did you find me?"

Harry asked curiously as he took off the Invisibility Cloak.

He couldn't even sense Darren, yet Darren could sense him?

"Breathing, footsteps, and you didn't control your volume at all."

Darren sighed.

Giving this Invisibility Cloak to Harry was a waste!

Harry scratched his hair in embarrassment, trying to break the awkwardness. So, he hurriedly looked around, wanting to change the subject.

Then he discovered the setting here.

This was an empty room with miscellaneous items placed around it.

And beside the clutter, a mirror that clearly didn't belong in this room was placed there.

This mirror was very grand, with a golden frame, its height reaching the ceiling, and it was supported by claw-shaped feet.

A line of words was carved on the top: Mirror of Erised. Harry curiously pulled Darren over to look.

At this time, there were no longer any sounds of Snape or Filch outside. It was quiet.

He looked at the mirror with peace of mind.

At first, there was nothing in the mirror, but then he discovered a large group of people appearing behind him.

He was startled and hurriedly looked behind him, but there was nothing there.

"What's wrong? Brother?"

Darren asked with confusion.

Although he knew Harry should have seen the Potters at this moment, as a child who knew nothing, he could only act surprised and vigilant.

"There are people inside!"

Harry said hurriedly.

He discovered that standing at the very front inside were a man and a woman.

The woman was extremely beautiful; she had red hair, green eyes, and a face somewhat similar to Darren's.

And the man's hair was as messy as his own; his face looked more like this gentleman.

He suddenly understood; these were his parents!

"Darren, come quickly, look at our mom and dad, you haven't even seen them!"

Harry pulled Darren over, letting him look with him. Darren hesitated before looking at the mirror.

He didn't know what he truly wanted to see in his heart. What would it be...

【Ding, Legilimency detected, do you wish to forge memories?】 Oh, this...

This is no fun at all.

【Forge it, let it see what I'm thinking!】

He didn't know if Dumbledore could discover anything, so forging it was safer.

And as his memories were forged.

High-rise buildings gradually appeared in the mirror, along with many scenes he had fabricated.

So he sighed softly: "How beautiful! I must be seeing the world of the future, right? People there get sick, and hospitals treat them for free." ===== CHAPTER 180 =====
