Hogwarts in the real world

Chapter 16 Martini and Banna

"Martini, are you asleep?" On the other side of the world, Wei Zichu and the others were paying attention to this country. In some ruins, in the darkness, Banna, who was only 11 years old, shrank her body in fear. , couldn't help but move towards Martini, a girl of the same age as her, hoping to hug her companion so that she would no longer be so afraid.

But there was the roar of artillery fire outside and the ground was shaking violently, which made her lose her last courage.

If she hadn't felt the presence of her companion next to her, she might have cried at this moment.

"Banna, I didn't sleep." In the darkness, Martini's voice was like a dead person, empty and cold.

"Martini, I miss my dad." Finally, Banna couldn't help crying and sobbed quietly.

Missing his loved ones also seemed to cause Martini's mood swings.

After a long time, Martini couldn't help but leaned towards Banna and held her in his arms. The two young bodies hugged each other tightly.

In fact, if Wei Zichu is here, he is very familiar with this country.

The world-famous place here is Syria.

Before Wei Zichu crossed over, on April 2018, 4, the United States, Britain, and France "launched an invasion" against this country that had been in war for seven years on the grounds that this country had weapons of mass destruction.

The sound of shells exploded in the sky of this country, making this precarious country even more disintegrated.

Within 90 minutes, 110 bombs were dropped, the country was dyed red with fire, and countless homes behind them were destroyed overnight.

Many people in their circle of friends have been reminded of a profile of the country’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations: Bashar Jaafari.

This 62-year-old senior diplomat has been in this position for 12 years. In the midst of war, the United Nations is the battlefield for him, and he carries the hope of countless people.

But in front of the great powers of the United States, Britain and France, he seemed so helpless and insignificant.

When he repeatedly stated the atrocities of the war, the representatives of the United States, Britain and France had already left the meeting.

There is a proverb among the Arabs: "If there is a paradise on earth, Damascus must be in it; if heaven is in the sky, Damascus must be as famous as it."

Now the reality of Damascus is hell.High-rise buildings, bridges and houses, built with so much painstaking efforts, turned the city into ruins due to a war.

In this country, a suicide bomber used potato chips to lure children, resulting in the tragic deaths of 68 children.

Countless panicked children ran through the streets crying.

A photographer witnessed all this. He continued searching and rescuing at the scene. When he saw the third child who was killed, he collapsed and knelt down crying.

"It was hell there, especially when you saw children crying or even dying in front of you."

This is not "Wolf Warrior" or "Red Sea War", this is actually a battlefield.

There was also a child who had a lifeless face and said to a reporter with a look of despair, "My mother was killed. An armed organization threw a bomb at my father's face, and he died instantly."

The reporter asked: "Do you hate those who hurt you as a human being?"

He said: "Of course, what can I do if I hate it? I can't move my arms and legs."

"We just want to have something to eat. Please save us from this disaster. What kind of life is this? There are shells every day. We have had enough."

Living here, they have no childhood.

War, poverty, hunger, and death were all part of their lives, and they continue to be so to this day.

Martini and Banna are one of them.

Martini doesn't know where she will be in the future, let alone where she will be tomorrow. She doesn't even know if her father will risk his life to pick up bread crumbs outside in order to give her a mouthful of food because she hasn't eaten for three days. Come back safely.

"Martini, let's be a refugee bride tomorrow." After a long time, Banna suddenly spoke softly.

Banna spoke in a very soft tone, but when it stopped in Martini's ears, it was like thunder on dry land, as cold as ever, even colder than when she had lost hope in the world, without any warmth.

"Banna, do you know what refugee bride means?" Martini said in a stern tone.

"I know." Martini hugged Banna and replied softly.

"She was given to those old men as their wives, and after playing with them, she was sold to the trading market as a prostitute."

"You still went after knowing that?" Martini was extremely angry. "Did you know that the person next door was Lisi who died? He was sold to those people in the market as a prostitute and then played to death!"

"I know."

"Your father will be sad."

"But if I become a refugee bride, at least I can survive, and my dad can survive, even if it's only for a short time, but at least we can survive, no?"

Martini was shocked. She had never realized that Banna, whom she had always treated as a sister, would be so decisive and firm once she decided on something.

She couldn't imagine what a blow Banna would feel once his father found out that his daughter was going to be a refugee bride.

Like Banna, Martini's mother also died in the war, and her father took her wandering around. Finally, she was rescued by Banna's father, and she managed to survive, barely having a place to live.

But even if their fathers support each other, it is still difficult for two grown men to support their daughters in this chaotic ruin.

Wandering between life and death many times, even because they have two lovely and beautiful daughters, other refugees have been coveting their bodies. Martini and Banna are each other's father and have been attacked many times.

If the two were not crazy with love, remembering that each other is their wife and their last wish, and taking good care of their daughter, I am afraid these two men would have fallen.

For a long time, hunger made the two tough-minded men lose a lot of weight, and also made the two cute beauties Martini and Banna look like skinny monkeys.

Even because Banna hadn't eaten for three days and suddenly passed out this morning, Banna as her father and Martini as her father ventured out to look for food.

As the "sister" who is two months older, Martini has the responsibility to take good care of her "sister" Banna.

But who would have thought that Banna would have such crazy thoughts after finally waking up.

Unfortunately, Martini didn't know how to persuade Banna. After all, she was only an 11-year-old little girl.

Being able to know what she can and cannot do means she is smart and mature.

Martini also felt hopeless. She wanted to go to heaven to be with her mother. It is said that after death in Damascus, the soul will ascend to heaven.

If she hadn't been afraid that after she went to heaven, the big man like her father would collapse and be heartbroken, I'm afraid Martini would have rushed out and ended his life.

Martini had seen his father hugging her and crying, a 1.8 meter tall man, hugging her like a stray dog, curled up in a corner and crying.

Martini was heartbroken and didn't want to see her father cry again.

But she didn't have a good idea.

Only, can dad really survive being a refugee bride?For a moment, Martini also lost consciousness.
