Harry lived an unhappy life with the Dursleys, forced to stay in a cupboard under the stairs and often bullied by his cousin Dudley. Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia avoided discussing Harry's true identity and the wizarding world, striving to keep him isolated from it.

To escape Harry's Hogwarts letter, Uncle Vernon decided to take the family to the zoo. At the zoo, Harry and Dudley went to the snake enclosure to watch the snakes. However, as they stood in front of the glass window, the snake enclosure's glass suddenly disappeared, and Dudley fell into the snake pit, causing panic and screams among the surrounding people. Harry realized that the incident was somehow related to him, beginning to suspect that he possessed some special abilities.

This experience deepened Harry's doubts about his identity. He started to realize that he was different from ordinary people, possessing certain unique abilities. He longed to leave the Dursleys' house and find a life and identity that truly belonged to him.

After the chaos at the zoo, the Dursleys' attitude towards Harry began to change subtly. Dudley seemed to have some gratitude towards Harry, while Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia started to become curious about Harry's identity and past.

This chapter lays the foundation for the entire story through the description of Harry's life with the Dursleys, the zoo trip, and the snake enclosure incident, showcasing Harry's desire for the wizarding world and his confusion about his own identity.
