Allen knocked on the trapdoor, and Harry immediately came forward.
Neither Uncle Vernon nor Aunt Penny would knock on the door. They would just rudely open the trapdoor and pass him some leftovers. As for Dudley, he would knock on the door to provoke Harry, but he was so strong that he almost knocked off the wall. He would never knock on the door in such a civilized and rhythmic way.
"Who is it?" Harry heard his voice become unfamiliar due to his nervousness.
"It's me, Allen! Harry, are you okay? "Allen quickly replied.
"Thank God, Allen. It's great that you came! I've been locked up here by the Dursleys for almost three days. Hunger isn't a problem. What I'm most worried about is that no one knows that I'm locked up here and that I can't return to Hogwarts. "Harry licked his lips and felt his heart fall to the ground.
But Allen caught the key word in his words — hunger. He quickly took out a big bag of food from the storage compartment and stuffed it into the trapdoor one by one.
"Harry, lean back. I'll find a way to open the door!" Allen reminded Harry.
"Okay!" Harry mumbled as he chewed on the turkey sandwich. Harry walked to the side of the bed, looking forward to his freedom!
Allen didn't know how to pick locks, but he had his own way of doing it. He walked back a long distance, then ran, jumped, and violently kicked … "Bang!" With a loud bang, the door lock was instantly sent flying, and the door hit the wall with a "bang" and bounced back.
Harry stared at Allen with his mouth agape. He even forgot to chew the sandwich in his mouth. In his eyes, Allen's face was against the light, so he couldn't see his expression. But Harry felt that he was like a god of war, enveloped in the light of freedom.
"Harry, do you have anything to pack?" Allen smiled gently, looking at Harry with a gentle gaze.
This gentle Allen was a great contrast to the violent Allen who just kicked the door lock away.
"Thank you, Allen!" Harry didn't answer Allen's question, but thanked him without thinking.
But Allen understood. "We're friends!" Allen only said this one sentence, then walked to the cage where Hedwig (Harry's owl) was locked. He sighed and said, "What a mess!"
"I don't have anything to eat. Hedwig is even more pitiful! Allen, you can let her out. She can find her own food. "Harry continued to chew the food. This was the best sandwich he had ever eaten!
Allen opened the cage and let Hedwig out. This intelligent owl tilted her head, gently pecked Allen's finger to express her gratitude, then flew out of the room through the open window downstairs!
"Okay, where's your luggage?" Allen clapped his hands and asked in a relaxed tone.
"My school stuff, magic wand, flying broom, are all locked in the secret cabinet downstairs." Harry looked at Allen. Obviously, he still needed Allen to perform his invincible kicking.
The two of them ran downstairs to the secret cabinet. Allen used the same trick and kicked open the cabinet door. Harry and Allen hurriedly stuffed their things into the box and walked out of the door.
"Do you want to leave a note?" Allen asked Harry as they passed by the living room. Although Allen was unhappy with the Dursleys' mistreatment of Harry, this was still Harry's home.
"They won't worry about me!" Harry was expressionless, but after thinking for a while, he took out a quill and wrote on a piece of paper, "I'm going to my friend's house. — Harry. "
The note was very concise, and the paper was placed on the table where they usually ate. Allen and Harry walked out of the door and left.
As Harry was pushing a large box, Allen chose to take the taxi to the magic lamppost. He stuffed the large suitcase into the trunk of the car, and the car shot out like an arrow. Looking at No. 4 Privet Drive getting further and further away, Harry only wished that he would never have to go back there again.
Because they took Muggle's taxi, they didn't say anything and were silent all the way. Allen paid for the taxi quickly, moved the suitcase out, and the car drove away.
When they came to the area where Allen's house was located by the magic lamppost, Harry saw the familiar small villa with red bricks and white windows, and breathed the fresh and natural air. Those despair and helplessness were left behind, and he felt that everything here had a taste of freedom and unrestrained. He loved this feeling deeply.
Pushing open the door, no one was at home. Allen put Harry's luggage in his room, and then made a pot of black tea for Harry.
"Why are you locked up?" Allen asked knowingly. He saw that Harry had a lot to say.
Harry told Allen about D.O.B.I, its warning to Harry, the mess of pudding and so on.
"When I asked it why it did this, it always hit its head against the wall!" Harry looked puzzled, and he wondered who wanted to stop him from going back to Hogwarts.
"Although the magic of the house elves is great, they can't reveal the secrets of their masters casually. If it gets out, they will punish themselves. "Allen explained D.O.B.I's self-harm behavior.
"I guess Malfoy instructed it to do it. Only he would not want me to go back to Hogwarts and be happy to see me unlucky." Harry came to a conclusion.
D.O.B.I is indeed Malfoy's, although the reason why it stopped Harry from going back to Hogwarts is completely different from what Harry thought.
Harry flipped through the newspaper on the table and saw the latest issue of the Prophet Daily. He opened it and saw the photo of Allen's family being awarded a medal. In the photo, Allen looked in the direction of Lunn and smiled gently.
The news was very simple. In a few words, it introduced the reason why Mr. Harris's family was awarded the Third Class Medal of the Sir Merlin Regiment, and then it was accompanied by a large group photo.
"Wow, Allen, you defeated a sea snake! You know, it's a three-star magical animal! "Harry was not amazed by Allen's strength, but by Allen's wonderful holiday experience.
Not long after they chatted, Harry's owl, Hedwig, flew in from the window, fluttered her wings and stopped on the owl shelf belonging to Benny, drank a little water and combed her feathers comfortably.
"I think you should send a letter to Ron and the others. They must be very anxious if they can't reach you." Allen looked at Hedwig and suggested.
Harry's eyes lit up, he took out a quill and parchment and wrote on the table. "I'm at Allen's house. Everything is fine!" Harry wrote three copies of the same content and asked Hedwig to send them to Ron, Hermione and Hagrid.
