[HP] Immortality

After the show, the theater hall was crowded with people, but at the moment when she raised a question, it seemed to Riddle that there was an invisible transparent cover to isolate them from the noise. All these expectations were captured by him, obviously this problem is not just a simple one.

The several seconds of silence ended when he took her out of the theater. The distance was not long but enough for him to speak, until he was away from the crowd, he slowly said, "Then I think Hermia's character will not stand idly by, nor will she She will succumb to this, she has extraordinary courage and is not afraid of the fate of being accused, abused or even executed, I believe she will try her best to rescue those innocent people, and at the same time firmly grasp the love she deserves."

But the subsequent reaction of the girl did not confirm his thoughts. She just nodded and smiled to echo his words. She didn't have the slightest look of loopholes just now, and he could only give up for the time being.

The end of the play is approaching the evening, at the moment of transition from daylight to night, over London, a little sunlight shines through the gaps in the layered dark clouds, the thick gray edges are traced by bright gold, and the projection looks like slices of dazzling pieces that have been cut. of light.At this moment, light also has a shape.

Her eyes lingered on the beam of light in the dark sky, and she couldn't help but sigh, "Since I have felt it until now, the heavens have remained the same, so there is nothing interesting about the mortal world."

As she spoke, she was attracted by the shop playing Christmas songs on the side of the road, and she pointed and suggested, "Tom Tom, didn't you say that Christmas gifts are given? There should be someone you grew up with in that orphanage." Partner, right? By the way, there are also wives who are responsible for taking care of you, so you can’t go empty-handed, I want to give you some gifts.”

Following the direction of her finger is a gift shop stacked with Christmas decorations, but the smile on Riddle's lips is more mocking, "...Compared with gifts, what orphanages need is a stable financial chain and ..."

It's a pity that all the follow-up words were swallowed when he met her innocent eyes, Riddle secretly gave a "tsk", and changed his mouth with the disgust in his eyes, "Okay, I will accompany you to pick and choose, those The kid might like it."

It was nightfall when we arrived at the orphanage, unlike Hogwarts or any place in London we passed today, it was a square building surrounded by high railings, and the location was also depressed, although a little light spilled from the windows , but it looks inexplicably gloomy and depressed.

The mottled and rusty iron gate was closed but not locked, and she swaggered in following him. The deserted yard seemed to be deprived of vitality by winter, and there was a lifeless and uncomfortable feeling. She finally Understand why he doesn't want to come back.

Riddell explained that at this time, the children and staff of the orphanage should all have dinner in the hall, but it is said to be a meal, but in fact it is not very rich. The funds of this orphanage have always been tight, let alone Christmas. At that time, it was far inferior to Hogwarts in terms of meals.

Because of this, before coming here, the two bought some food to fill their stomachs. Of course, he didn't plan to stay here for a long time. If she didn't want to come, this orphanage, he wished he would never set foot here again .

But Qingyao didn't understand his feelings, she just looked around for a while, especially hugged his arm distressedly and said, "Tom, I have really wronged you all these years."

Just taking advantage of the few minutes before going in, Riddle stretched out his hand to wrap around her waist, and waited until the distance between the two of them had shrunk to the shortest before speaking, "Fool, don't think so, I'm already the luckiest person in the world Yes, I am satisfied with you. Be obedient and don’t stay longer when you go in and give these things to them, or you may miss the fireworks show later in the day.”

I wanted to go to the room where he lived in the past, but since he said so, Qing Yao didn't want to ask for anything, so she nodded obediently, "Well, I understand, but I still have some questions to ask. Where's your wife?"

"..Then my dear may be disappointed. I was not a good boy when I was young, but I was a complete villain in front of you." He raised his eyebrows while talking, his eyes were full of jokes and some inexplicable surprises expect.

However, this sounded like a joke to Qing Yao. She thought about it carefully and tilted her head in doubt, "But Tom obviously has excellent grades, is a prefect, and is respected as a role model for everyone to learn from. Where is the nature of a child to be a villain?"

Looking at the innocence on her face, Riddle didn't want to break the current beauty built by his countless efforts, and those mottled and bad marks should be permanently sealed.

But all the words to explain the teasing ended up being a hand covering her little head and a light, "You will understand."

This immediately aroused Qingyao's curiosity, but she couldn't imagine how naughty a child of a few years old could be, so she simply dragged him to the brightest house, and said quite unhappy, "Then I'll find the answer myself!"

Riddle didn't refute anything, he just followed in silence, taking her and the orphanage into view from the angle of the rear.It was really dramatic to bring his girlfriend to this most disgusting place.

Every Christmas from five years ago to this year has been better for Martha than it has been in the years before, and the orphanage has been much better since the sullen and eccentric child was admitted to a boarding school by a gentleman. .

Despite the financial crisis and war, thanks to the government's assistance, the children can finally have a good holiday this year, but Martha's wish came true when she saw the familiar person in the yard through the window.

This made Martha's expression change, she immediately poked Cole who was eating toast with her elbow, and said in a low voice, "That little monster is back, I saw him, in the garden, he is never at Christmas Come back, could it be that something happened to that school? Or he was expelled?"

"You mean Tom Riddle? He actually came back? That's just right. I wanted to drive him away a long time ago. He is almost an adult. There are more and more children in the orphanage, but there is no room for him. Stay! God keep this freak as far away from us as possible!"

Cole's expression was more exciting than Martha's. Her disgust was beyond words, but both of them frowned when they talked about Riddle, as if they were discussing some serious and serious issues.

It's a pity that they didn't discuss for too long when there was a knock on the door. The boy closest to the door put down his food very consciously, ran over excitedly and opened a gap, but stepped back a few steps timidly when he saw the person coming, Then he ran back in a hurry.

However, the two sides of the noisy dining table did not change because of a strange person, until the door was fully opened, Qing Yao walked in first, and the noise in the room was instantly reduced by half.After Riddle, who was carrying a large bag and a small bag, came in again, no one spoke, and there was a sudden silence.

But Qingyao was still unaware of the sudden embarrassing atmosphere. She greeted the adults and children who were eating at the big table with a smile, "Hello, I'm sorry to disturb you. The school is on holiday, so I will accompany Tom to Look at the orphanage where he lived, here are some Christmas presents, I hope you can use them."

However, no one at the big table responded. Everyone stared at her, and no one had any intention of answering, as if what she just said was not pure English.

Only then did Qingyao realize that something was wrong, she took two steps back and bumped into the arms of the person behind her, and his deep voice sounded next to her ear, "Don't be afraid, they always do this. Just put it here."

At this time, someone suddenly stood up from the long table who had been silent for a while, interrupting their whispering.

"Happy holidays and thank you for your generosity, ma'am, and may God bless you."

Mrs. Cole got up in time to avoid the other party's continuous embarrassment, but looked up and down at this pretty girl who looked about seventeen or eighteen, guessing her identity, and finally locked her eyes on the back while putting away her smile, "Oh... Del, you're back just in time, come to my office now, there's something you need to know."

"Okay, ma'am." Riddle agreed without any hesitation, and then softly instructed his little girl a few words before leaving the room with Cole.

Although Qingyao doesn't know how he spent time here in the past, one thing she can be sure of is that no matter adults or children here, he is not welcome here, which makes her stand or sit or not. With such experience, she didn't dare to say anything, just stared at them eating.

Fortunately, Martha took the initiative to pull her over to sit down, avoiding more embarrassing situations, and her question time officially began.

When Riddle and Cole came back here, the whole restaurant changed. In just 10 minutes, all the big and small children gathered around the girl with gifts and asked things, even if he came in. It didn't help, so I simply found a seat and sat down.

This girl seemed to be telling a story. She was surrounded in the center, her little face was flushed, her eyes were bright, and her whole body was full of energy. These children as young as three or four years old, and as old as fifteen or sixteen years old seemed to be interested in it. It was rare to see such a harmonious scene after returning here, after all, everyone here avoided him.

Before leaving, several young girls even asked her when she would come back, but Qingyao couldn't give an accurate answer, so she could only smile and use words like "wait for the New Year to finish the work at hand" to fool her pass.

After leaving the orphanage, Qing Yao said in a muffled voice, "Tom, I heard from Mrs. Martha that most of these children were abandoned when they were born, and I don't think their food is very good, but that little Mary said This is much richer than usual, they are so poor..."

"It's pitiful, it's pitiful, at least there are many such poor little devils in London except here, and what's more pitiful is that some of them won't survive this winter."

Although his tone was still gentle, there was no sympathy in his words. He just held her hand tightly, and the smile on his lips didn't decrease in the slightest, but it made people feel cold for no reason. Same cool.

After walking a long way, she seemed to have calmed down and broke the silence, "I naturally understand that birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws and must be experienced by ordinary people in a short life. Their fate was set from the moment they were born, I don’t know if it’s the same here, I hope they can have a chance to change their fate.”

"I agree with what Yao said. The opportunity to change your destiny is always in your own hands. You don't have to sympathize with anyone. This is their life and has nothing to do with you."

But maybe it was too ruthless, Riddle looked at her uninterested expression, immediately put his arms around her waist, and put his hand on her abdomen through the clothes, "Darling, don't forget, there is a little girl here." Life is waiting to meet you in a few months, believe me, I will make you happy."

She also gently stroked her abdomen, her eyes softened visibly, but she seemed to think of something, she lowered her head and narrowed her eyes slightly, her nose was sore, she quickly took a deep breath to adjust her emotions, and finally said with a smile on her face, "Tom ! Let's go watch the fireworks!"

"...it is good."

There is indeed something wrong, she is obviously changing the subject, but what could it be... What happened...
