Suddenly, a flash of insight struck Leon, and he recalled the origin of that phrase.
'Ionia, the first land.'
"Conan, the human heart is unfathomable. Even if he committed heinous acts in life, after death he is merely a corpse. Your job is to speak for the corpse."
Conan was very intelligent, extremely intelligent. He quickly understood Leon's meaning and accepted this viewpoint. A smile appeared on his face as he said, "Thank you."
"You are right. Even without me, murders would still occur. All I can do is bring the culprits to justice. As for anything else, that's not for me to consider."
As he spoke, Conan even bowed solemnly to Leon.
Leon smiled and nodded.
'If only a few more Conans would appear in Neon…'
While chatting with Conan, Leon spread the soul sand he had obtained from his backpack onto the ground.
The brown soul sand looked quite intimidating, with many distorted faces on its surface, as if souls were trapped within, emitting unwilling roars.
Conan carefully observed the faces on the soul sand and said, "How magical! This thing can grow painful human faces. If it weren't for so many blocks being exactly the same, I would suspect there were really souls inside."
Leon heard this and revealed a profound smile, his voice calm as he said, "Do you think it's possible that this soul sand… is made from human souls?"
"This is a special product I specifically brought back from the edge of the magma sea in the Nether. This soul sand, condensed from souls, is perfect for planting hell wart."
As he spoke, Leon took out the hell wart from his backpack, then silently willed it to plant. Crimson hell wart, like tumors, appeared on the soul sand.
Conan: "…"
I'm not playing anymore, I want to go home.
Then Leon chuckled and said, "Just kidding. I don't know how this soul sand is formed either. It's just a special soil for planting crops."
After planting the hell wart, Leon took out some glass from the chest and began his path of alchemy.
Conan followed Leon with curiosity the entire time, finally looking at the bubbling liquid in the alchemy table.
"Brother Leon, you're like a legendary wizard now, just missing a wizard's hat and robe."
Leon glanced at Conan and said, "A wizard? If a wizard had my efficiency in alchemy, they'd probably wake up laughing in their dreams."
Snape: You are absolutely correct.
Soon, the originally blue liquid on the alchemy table suddenly turned orange-yellow, and this liquid seemed to be glowing.
The fully focused Conan was startled by the sudden change in the potion.
Leon walked over, took out the potion, threw it into his backpack, then loaded new water bottles and hell wart. The bubbling sound started again.
"What was that orange-yellow liquid for?"
Leon took out the Potion of Fire Resistance from his backpack and explained, "Potion of Fire Resistance. As the name suggests, if you drink it, you can resist damage from fire."
"Want to try it?"
This item is very cheap to make, requiring only a water bottle, one hell wart, and one magma cream, all of which are renewable resources.
Conan immediately refused Leon's suggestion. He felt that Leon always wanted him to do dangerous things.
Just then, a wooden door on the wall opened again, and Harry Potter walked from behind the wooden door into the Overworld.
It was Conan's first time seeing Harry Potter, and he couldn't help but curiously size him up.
"Hello, sir, um… um, I wanted to ask, did you find the lawyer?"
Leon waved to Harry, who was still standing far away, and said, "How do you feel about this? As long as you nod, you can leave your aunt's house."
"I don't know. At first, I really wanted to leave Dali's house, but I don't know why I'm hesitating now."
He's a child, so it's natural for him to not adapt to suddenly leaving a place where he's lived for nearly 12 years. Leon could very much understand that feeling. After all, when he ran away from home as a child, he circled his house for several hours, not daring to run too far, but unwilling to go home.
In the end, his own mother couldn't bear to watch anymore and came out to grab him and bring him back.
"This matter is very easy to resolve."
He turned to Conan and asked, "Do you want to experience the world of wizards?"
"Wizards?"
Conan looked at Leon suspiciously. He had just mentioned the word 'wizard,' and now Leon wanted to take him to the so-called wizarding world. He felt there was a trap.
However, human curiosity is not much less than a cat's. After thinking for a moment, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go."
The three of them passed through the wooden door and arrived in Harry Potter's world.
This time, the wooden door was in the Dursleys' backyard, and the appearance of Leon and the other two did not attract the attention of the people inside the house.
The Dursleys' backyard garden was meticulously maintained, with shelves full of fresh flowers, and a gentle breeze carried wafts of floral scent.
Leon glanced at the house and then quietly asked, "How's the situation now? Has the lawyer left?"
Harry gently shook his head and said, "I don't know right now. Just now, the Child Protection Association, the lawyer, and the police came together."
"They said they wanted to revoke Vernon and Penny's custody of me. They took pictures of where I live, and then issued a document. Now only the lawyer is left inside discussing this matter with them."
"The lawyer was still in the house when I left, but I'm not sure now."
After understanding the general situation, Leon nodded slightly and walked towards the front door of the small villa.
He reached out and pressed the doorbell.
The crisp sound of the doorbell rang, and footsteps came from inside the house. Soon, the door opened, and a middle-aged woman appeared before Leon.
This was a thin, blonde woman with light-colored eyes, currently looking at Leon with suspicion and wariness.
"You are…"
"I am Harry Potter's friend, and also his future employer and guardian. It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Dursley."
Harry's aunt, Penny, heard Leon's self-introduction, her face turned extremely ugly, and her voice became extremely sharp: "It's you!"
"All of this is your doing…"
"That's right."
Leon directly admitted it, then scanned the surrounding houses and said, "Ms. Penny, I imagine you wouldn't want the surrounding neighbors to know about the interesting things happening here, would you?"
Penny was like a chicken with its neck squeezed, her face turning crimson, unable to utter a sound from her throat.
Leon smiled and walked directly into the house. Penny stiffly moved aside to make way. Conan merely glanced at her and followed Leon into the house.
After Leon entered the house, he didn't see the lawyer, only Vernon, who was walking towards him with an angry expression.
"Damn it, who exactly are you, why…"
"Shut up! I came here to inform you that from today onwards, we are neighbors."
