Harry Potter: Charlie's Candy Factory

Chapter 8 The Doomed Sleepless Night

Harry was used to this.

He stretched out his hand, brushed away the dust that was falling in all directions, and then deftly turned over in the narrow cupboard to make his posture more comfortable.

All that is needed next is to wait.

Harry thought of this, and the smile on the corner of his mouth remained undiminished.

Based on what he knew about his cousin Dudley, since it was in his hands, even after dinner, he would never let go of that piece of chocolate.

As for what will happen after eating the chocolate... To be honest, although Charlie didn't tell him for a while, he could vaguely think that it might be a wonderful prank.

"I guess Mr. Charlie added chilli to that chocolate, or a laxative or something. Or maybe...the chocolate actually has cockroach powder in it."

Harry thought hopefully, and then said to himself.

It seems that he has seen the embarrassing things that will happen after Dudley.

"Squeaky squeak..."

Just as he was thinking, the stairs above the cupboard suddenly creaked with the sound of footsteps.

Harry hurriedly came back to his senses, carefully pressed his ear to the wooden wall of the cupboard, and listened attentively to the movement upstairs.

However, what he didn't expect was that after the footsteps of the Dursleys gradually stopped and disappeared for a long time, nothing happened that he wanted to hear.

"What's going on?" Harry frowned in confusion.

"Didn't Dudley eat that hazelnut? It's not like something he'd do."

Another soliloquy.

But Harry was not discouraged, but continued to wait patiently.

All the lights in the house were turned off, and the family returned to their own rooms, and began to prepare to fall asleep.

Harry lay on his stomach in the cupboard, patting the mildewed lines on the wooden walls to pass the time.

Finally, when he was feeling drowsy, his eyelids drooped, and he was about to be unable to resist the drowsiness and fell asleep.

From Dudley's room, there was suddenly a scream mixed with panic and a little crying.

For a moment, Harry, who was still drowsy, shuddered, and then woke up, with a light of surprise shining in his green pupils.

He hurriedly pressed his ears against the wall again, and began to hear the excitement he had been waiting for for a long time.

Dudley's scream was like a sudden air defense siren in the dark.

The original tranquility was completely disturbed.

"Peng!"

Dursley, in his pajamas, kicked open the door of his room almost at the same time as Dudley screamed, and then hurried to his precious son's room.

It's really hard for him to say it...I really don't know how he can drag such a heavy tonnage so quickly.

Aunt followed closely behind, switched on the corridor light with a snap, followed Uncle Dursley's footsteps with a look of shock on her face.

"Dudley? Dudley! My little baby Dudley, what's the matter with you!? Oh, my God, my God..."

It seems that she has never heard her precious son screaming so miserablely. At this moment, her aunt was shouting, even her voice was trembling a little.

"Giggle..."

Harry lay flat in the cupboard with his arm pillowed, watching the shimmering light coming in through the cracks in the wood above, and finally couldn't hold it anymore, let out a chuckle.

Dursley came to the door of Dudley's room.Without a moment's pause, he grabbed the doorknob, pulled the door open, and looked inside.

The redness on his face hadn't faded, and he stood at the door, panting heavily, trying to figure out what happened.

In the room, Dudley curled himself up in the blanket, shivering constantly.

Although compared with his huge body, the little blanket covering his body is extremely ridiculous.

"Baby, what's wrong with you!?"

Aunt quickly pushed Uncle Dursley out of the way, and hurried to Dudley's bedside.Looking at Dudley who was wrapping himself up tightly, he stretched out his hand anxiously and hurriedly tore off the blanket covering him.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, when the aunt lifted the blanket and saw Dudley in the blanket, just a face-to-face, the originally wide eyes couldn't help turning up to reveal the whites of the eyes.

The whole person was almost powerless suddenly, and passed out on the ground.

Even Uncle Dursley choked violently the moment he lifted the blanket and saw Dudley below.

Those eyes that were squeezed into the fat seemed to be opened so wide for the first time in his life.And the cheeks that were originally flushed, now turned an obviously abnormal purple.

He staggered twice and almost fell to the ground like his wife.

Fortunately, he was leaning against the door, so he grabbed it subconsciously, which played a supporting role.

"Oh, God……"

His lips trembled, and he muttered subconsciously.

Looking at Dudley's eyes, it seemed that he was looking at something extremely terrifying.

And that's exactly what happened...

Under the blanket, Dudley in pajamas was lying on the bed in horror, covering his face with his hands as hard as possible, trying to cover his nose and ears that had become ridiculous.

But this kind of cover is completely ineffective, because the fat pig nose and pig ears are obviously not something that his hands can cover.

That's right, after eating the chocolate, the exquisite transfiguration left by Charlie on it was also officially activated.

According to his own memory of Zhu Bajie's classic appearance in the 98 edition of Journey to the West, Dudley has completely changed his look!

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

Dudley cried out in fright as he watched the expressions on his parents.

It's just that the sound has become the sound effect of a pig "humming, humming".

........................

At this moment, Harry, who was locked in the cupboard, obviously didn't know what happened, he just heard a flurry of noises upstairs.

But what had happened, what kind of mischief Mr. Charlie's chocolate had played on Dudley, he really had no idea.

"Hey……"

Listening to the original noise from above stopped abruptly after Uncle Dursley opened the door, it was just that Mr. Charlie's prank was over and the fun was over.

So Harry didn't insist anymore.I couldn't help but yawned, turned over, and changed positions. It didn't take long before I fell asleep again.

It's just... For the Dursleys, this night was destined to be a sleepless night.
