=================
The first thing you need to do when transmigrating into the Harry Potter universe is to figure out which version of the universe you've entered.
For example, if you're in the movie universe, you'll meet Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint, but if you're in the novel universe, you won't meet them. Instead, you'll find characters who are almost similar. For instance, Harry will have green eyes and a skinny, malnourished body.
After confirming all these details, Dudley realizes that this world is the novel version, not the movie.
Recalling the plot from the novel, Dudley knows he must invite Amelia Bones to witness the Dementor attack as proof that someone is truly trying to kill Harry Potter.
Amelia was killed before Harry entered Hogwarts for his sixth year, and the one who attacked her was Voldemort himself. The Dark Lord wouldn't personally attack a small fry, he'd only attack if the target was someone like Harry Potter or someone as strong as Dumbledore.
This shows how powerful Amelia was, and for that reason, Dudley knows his first ally needs to be Amelia Bones. The event where Harry and Dudley are attacked by Dementors happens just before nightfall, two weeks before Harry's birthday, and now there is only one week left until it occurs.
Dear Susan Bones,
This is your friend Dudley Dursley. As Harry Potter's cousin, I wanted to share the details of the night when my cousin claimed that the Dark Lord had returned.
I know my cousin—he may be annoying, but he's never a liar. We would like to invite your aunt, Amelia Bones, to hear the details, and we hope she will accept our invitation. Of course, you are also welcome to join us at our house.
Please come to this address Privet Drive Number 4 at this time XXXX on this date XXXXX.
Dudley Dursley

"Harry, let me use your owl," asked Dudley.
"Owl? But my owl hasn't returned," said Harry Potter. It's been a week, and Hedwig hasn't come back after sending a letter to Ron Weasley.
Hearing this, Dudley remembered that it was because of Dumbledore, he had prevented Ron and Hermione from contacting Harry via letter. But Dumbledore didn't know one thing that Hermione would visit every year with her parents at Privet Drive, Number 4.
If I weren't a wizard, Harry would probably be lonely here, anxious, and worried. Hermione wouldn't visit him during my birthday. Harry is lucky in this timeline to have a cousin like me.
"Never mind, I have an owl too," said Dudley.
"Since when do you have an owl?" asked Harry Potter confused because Dudley never picked up an owl as his pet. Every month he will borrow Hedwig instead of buying the new one.
"Hahaha, cousin, you never know about my life, but I know about yours," said Dudley. "What kind of cousin are you?"
"Erghhh." Harry feel weird hearing Dudley comment.
"Never mind, follow me," said Dudley. He then showed him a briefcase and said with a dramatic tone. "Inside here, there's another world."
"What's inside that briefcase?" asked Harry.
"Do you remember the Weasley car?" questioned Dudley. When Harry was in his second year, the Weasleys came to visit at midnight, intending to rescue Harry from the Dursleys—all because of Dobby. Ron didn't receive a letter from Harry and panicked, worried about his best friend. He and the twins then decided to get Harry out of the Dursleys' house. But little did they know, instead of breaking in at midnight, they were greeted with a cup of tea.
They explained that they were there to visit Harry because they hadn't received any letters from him. With open arms, Petunia and Vernon allowed Harry to stay with the Weasleys for the entire holiday, while Dudley felt too lazy to join them. Harry, of course, was very happy and excitedly went to the Burrow.
"Yeah, I remember," replied Harry.
"This is just like that car, but much bigger," said Dudley.
Dudley then invited Harry to come inside the briefcase.
"Wow," Harry's first reaction was one of amazement.
"Now do you see why I'm always in my room?" asked Dudley.
"Do you spend all your time here?" Harry asked.
Dudley just smirked at Harry.
"This briefcase not only contains all these animals, but it also has a rune that prevents the Ministry of Magic from tracking our use of magic," said Dudley.
{The rune wasn't set up by Dudley; the briefcase is from the game items, making the location private so no wizard can detect the use of magic. All this information he got from the system.}
"What? You never told me that before!" exclaimed Harry.
"Hahaha, who told you to focus all your attention on that Weasley boy?" replied Dudley.
"Don't talk bad about my friend," Harry said, trying to defend the Weasley boy.
"Hahaha, okay. But speaking of the Weasley boy, didn't you find his little sister attractive?" asked Dudley.
"Ginny?"
"Of course. I noticed she liked you long before you went to Hogwarts," said Dudley.
"She's like a sister to me," Harry tried to brush it off.
"Even best friends can get married. So just because she's your best friend's little sister, that discourages you?" teased Dudley.
"No, she's just a little sister to me," said Harry.
"Okay, so can I marry her?" Dudley asked.
"No, you cannot!"
"Hahahaha, your face shows what Ginny means to you. Don't let others flirt with her first like Cho Chang. If you like her, just tell her family and get married," said Dudley.
"I'm only 15 this year," replied Harry.
"Who says 15-year-olds can't get married?" asked Dudley.
"The law says," replied Harry.
"That's Muggle law," said Dudley. "Wizarding law is different."
"What does the law say?" asked Harry.
"Just forget what I said. I'm not into kids; I like mature women," said Dudley. While passing the wand to Harry, he added, "This is a spare wand, and it's better to use a spare wand in here."
