Chapter 348 Zhang Xiao's Journey

Fight and then make up?

Like a real man?

Harry opened his mouth, not expecting Dudley to say such words.

"Reconciliation?"

Dudley nodded heavily, took a deep breath, and said with determination in his eyes:

"Dad. Dad told me to take good care of my mother. Her only relatives are us."

Harry then realized that Dudley had not only lost weight, but his personality seemed to have changed a lot. In his heart, Dudley had always been stupid, gluttonous, and a bully.

But now he seems to be a different person. Is it because of Uncle Vernon's departure?

Dudley was still minding his own business and said:

"Cousin, I know that you also resent us in your heart. You always bullied you in the past. I apologize to you, but dad -

I don’t know what to do, but I feel like we are family—”

"Okay! Let's have a fight!"

Harry agreed simply.

In the garden behind the house, a small wooden house lit up with dim lights.

Dudley suddenly became interested in boxing one day. Vernon was very happy because he thought this was the hobby of a tough guy.

So he specially built a small wooden house in the back garden that he originally regarded as a treasure.

Harry had never been here before, and the first thing he saw was a small boxing ring, compared to the ones he had seen on TV.

This boxing ring looks a lot confusing, only half the size.

There is a row of hooks and seats against the wall, and a small refrigerator is leaning against the corner.

A sandbag hung in another small clearing.

The last wall was covered with photos, including photos of Vernon training with Dudley and photos of Dudley hitting the punching bag.

There were also photos of the two of them together, and hanging in the center was a large photo of Dudley winning the student boxing competition.

Every corner of this cabin was filled with Vernon's love for Dudley, and every nail was set by Vernon himself.

Dudley turned on the spotlight in the ring and threw a pair of gloves.

"With gloves? That's fine." Harry nodded. If it had been before, he might not have dared to agree to a fight with Dudley.

But after a long period of training, Zhang also taught himself a few tricks, as well as the Death Eaters he defeated with his own hands in the battle in the church.

These gave Harry strong confidence.

In just a short while, the two of them were already standing on the stage with their upper bodies naked and their gloves on.

Only then did Harry realize that Dudley had not only lost weight, but his originally obese body had turned into patches of muscle, making him look very powerful.

Dudley also discovered that his skinny cousin had also grown a lot stronger. His originally hemp-like body seemed to have been inflated, and his muscles were also clearly defined.

The next moment, the two people rushed towards each other.

Harry turned his head to avoid Dudley's powerful straight punch. Just as he was about to swing his fist to fight back, he found that the other fist was rapidly enlarging in front of him.

He had to raise his arms to shield his eyes.

"Bang!" There was a huge impact, and Harry quickly took a few steps back and shook his numb arms.

The wizard's twisted instincts were at work again, but Harry knew nothing of it, he just felt the pain was weaker than he had imagined.

He grinned and stepped forward. He also learned a lot of fighting knowledge in the duel club.

Zhang Xiao took the culture and learning difficulty into consideration and taught basic force-generating techniques, and also taught a few killer moves.

Harry, who was wearing gloves, had no scruples. He stepped forward with his right foot, followed with his left foot, stepped on the middle door, and followed up quickly with his body, like a whip.

As the saying goes: a single whip is rare in the world, and a soaring cannon is second best!

Dudley's pupils narrowed and he also crossed his arms to block.

"Bang!" There was another huge crash, and this time it was Dudley's turn to fall back and look at his cousin in surprise.

Both of them were surprised by each other's growth and changes.

“Bang-bang bang-bang bang bang”

At first there were only sporadic sounds, but then they became denser, and finally they became one, and the dense sounds of hitting echoed throughout the house.

Both of them gave up their defense and wildly waved their fists towards each other's body.

Harry's glasses had long since flown out, and his eyes were already red and swollen. He punched Dudley hard in the face, knocking him staggering.

But then he was punched by Dudley again and his head was turned upside down, and two nosebleeds flowed down.

"I'll give you this punch. You hit me every day when I was in first grade!"

"This punch is also for you. You used your magic to blow up the toilet when I went to the toilet!"

Through the swollen eye slit, Harry found Dudley and rushed forward again, hitting him hard on the nose:

"That's a burst of magic power, I can't control it!"

Dudley burst into tears of pain. He covered his nose, and then moved forward for a moment:

"You made me turn into a pig tail! Boom!"

"You stole my cake! Bang!"

"You put me in a zoo! Boom!"

"You pushed me first! Bang!"

The strength of the fists has become weaker and weaker, but the two of them still smash each other's bodies persistently.

Finally, at a certain moment, they could no longer hold on and both fell to the ground.

The floor of the boxing ring was covered with sweat and blood stains. Harry and Dudley were lying on the ground, their chests heaving violently.

From beginning to end, Dudley never said anything like you killed my father. Harry closed his eyes.

After a while, he struggled to get up from the ground, rubbing his wounds with a grin.

He took off his gloves and stretched out his hand to Dudley who was still lying on the floor.

"Hello, Brother D, I'm Harry Potter."

"Harry? Wait a minute."

Zhang Xiao held the steering wheel with one hand, clamped the phone between his face and neck, and snapped his fingers at the traffic police who stopped him.

[Confusing Spell].

"Oh, sorry, I made a mistake. You are over 18, and there is no problem with your driver's license!"

The London traffic police handed back a blank piece of white paper with a smile on his face. In his eyes, it was a real driver's license.

"Okay, you can tell me, what happened?"

Zhang Xiao put his arm on the car window, drove the Ferrari with one hand, and let the cool morning wind brush his hair.

"Can you help Penny find a job? Close to home, high salary?

Hmm - Penny is out of money? Oh, I see."

Zhang Xiao paused. Although he didn't know where Vernon got the Minimi machine gun, the military Land Rover and the equipment.

But it was obviously not cheap, and it was very likely that he spent a lot of money to buy it.

Vernon's income was not bad, but he was just in the upper middle class, and his savings were probably emptied at once.

Penny used to work as a clerk, and obviously didn't have any professional skills. In addition, she hadn't worked for so many years, and Smelting's tuition was not cheap.

Naturally, she was out of money.

After figuring out the reason, Zhang Xiao readily agreed, and his luxurious temperament of driving a Ferrari with one hand was undoubtedly revealed:

"No problem, I'll take care of it."

After chatting with Harry for a few more words, Zhang Xiao hung up the phone and called Malfoy this time.

As a big man who is doing well in China, Lucius's assets are rising rapidly. He is already a very famous multinational company in the UK. It is really easy to arrange Penny.

When he dialed the phone, Zhang Xiao suddenly realized that it was not because Harry was embarrassed to call Malfoy that he called himself?

Harry certainly knew Malfoy's family situation and knew that Lucius's business was very big.

Two arrogant monsters!

Sure enough, when the call was connected, Malfoy first enthusiastically told the story of the journey.

When he heard that Harry wanted to find a job for Penny, his voice changed immediately.

Mr. Ma said in a slow, arrogant but seemingly holding back tone:

"Potter. Ask me to find a job for his aunt?"

"What's wrong? You don't want to?" Zhang Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"That's not the case - ahem, I mean - why didn't Potter call me himself?"

"Maybe he was embarrassed?"

"Okay, what's Potter's phone number? I'll call him. By the way, Zhang, what are you going to do alone in the UK during the summer vacation?"

Zhang Xiao read the number to Malfoy, and then said casually:

"Just go shopping and relax. After all, every summer vacation is so tight, give yourself a vacation."

The Ferrari drove into a residential area, and Zhang Xiao looked at the sign hanging on a two-story building not far away.

[Granger Dental Clinic]

There are not many people here, but they still maintain a certain curiosity about the flamboyant red Ferrari.

"I'm here."

Zhang Xiao hung up the phone and parked the car in the parking space in front of the clinic.

Pushing the door in, the bell at the door made a crisp sound, and the nurse in the pink nurse uniform at the front desk raised her head and showed a professional smile.

As expected of a dental nurse, maybe she has also made veneers, and her teeth are so white that they can dazzle people.

"Hello - do you have an appointment?"

There is only one word to describe dental care in the UK, that is expensive! And most of them are by appointment.

Private dental clinics like this are even more outrageously expensive.

Zhang Xiao glanced around the first floor of the clinic, and there was no one on the waiting chair:

"Is Mr. Granger here? Or Miss Hermione Granger?"

The nurse's face immediately rippled with a knowing smile, and her eyes were filled with gossip. The boss's daughter is 16 years old!

In the UK, if there are not many boyfriends at this age, it can be defined as unpopular.

"Miss Granger is not here, but Dr. Granger is upstairs."

After writing the doctor, Zhang Xiao came to the second floor and happened to meet Mr. Granger coming out. He was wearing a white coat and was a little surprised:

"Zhang? Why are you here? Do you have a toothache? Come in, I'll take a look at you."

Before Zhang Xiao had time to speak, he was pulled into the clinic by Mr. Granger.

"No, no, no, I just want to come and see, there's nothing wrong with my teeth."

Sitting on the dental chair, Zhang Xiao looked at Mr. Granger, who had put on a mask and picked up the tools. No matter how his identity changed, his fear of dentists was deep in his bones.

Mr. Granger put down the tools with regret and said with a smile: "Hermione went to the bookstore and said she wanted to buy some new books for entertainment.

These days she has been chattering about last year's school life with us, and the most mentioned are you and Harry.

She also said there is a World Cup this year. Do wizards also have a World Cup?"

Mr. Granger is much more talkative than when he was in Diagon Alley. Obviously, he is still a little uncomfortable with the magical world.

"Yes, it's similar to the World Cup in football. This year it's Ireland vs. Bulgaria."

"Ireland?" Mr. Granger's eyes sparkled. In 1993, England was eliminated by the Netherlands and Norway in the World Cup qualifiers, and shamefully failed to enter the 1994 World Cup finals in the United States.

This made British fans very angry and ashamed.

As a veteran fan, Granger was very interested in the fact that Ireland, which had only been independent for a few decades, could enter the World Cup.

Zhang Xiao also invited Mr. Granger to watch the game if he was interested. It was just a few tickets, wasn't it?

For Master Zhang and Master Ma, it was a piece of cake?

After chatting for a while, Hermione still didn't come. Zhang Xiao, who was not used to the cold atmosphere, started to talk to Mr. Granger about dentistry again.

"I think it is inevitable that small CBCT will enter the clinic."

"Well, if we have the assistance of CBCT, it will be much more convenient."

"Soon, the progress of science and technology will exceed everyone's expectations. I think you can pay more attention to the technology of dental implants. Although there are still shortcomings, I think implant technology will become the mainstream in the future."

"What about porcelain? I think porcelain has great advantages."

"But porcelain still has an impact on MRI examinations. When MRI becomes popular, porcelain teeth will be outdated."

"Popularize MRI and make it a routine examination method?"

"Well, I think it will definitely happen. Hey, have you started using glass ion now?"

"Haha, it's much better than resin, but what will replace porcelain teeth if they are outdated? The price of implants is too expensive. It's hard to afford it without insurance."

"Zirconium oxide! All-ceramic, although it hasn't appeared yet, it should be soon."

Just when Zhang Xiao and Granger were talking happily, the door of the clinic was suddenly pushed open, and Hermione stood at the door in surprise, holding a book.

"Zhang!"

Zhang Xiao stood up, smiled and waved.

"Why are you here?" Hermione rushed over excitedly, holding a book like a little deer.

"Zhang said he was going to drive around England. We are in London, so this is the first stop. He will visit his friends one by one."

Mr. Granger interrupted to explain for Zhang Xiao. He seemed to be a little reluctant. He stretched out his hand and shook hands with Zhang Xiao:

"Zhang, if you don't learn magic, you will definitely become an excellent dentist."

Dentist? Hermione's glass-like eyes suddenly lit up again. Zhang also knows dentistry?

Well, I can't say that my wife was a dentist in my previous life.

Zhang Xiao thought about it, took out the key and shook it in front of Hermione:

"Do you want to go out for a walk? Take a ride?"
