Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 362 What is a friend?

() The deepest layer of the Dark Ling Pavilion underground vault, in the cave stone chamber by the lava lake.

Wei Li sat on the edge of the bed, quietly looking at Maca's profile, while recounting the past that belonged to her in an unclear order.

She is not really sad, because she can finally look at the boy in front of her and smile to her heart.

Even if it's just today, even if it's just this short period of time, she will no longer regret it.

"You, know?" She said, "I...have a wish...the biggest. I always hope that I can smile at my best friend..."

"Because feelings...must be expressed before people can understand..."

...

Regardless of the curse of the Blois family, perhaps Vili herself is a girl who is not good at words.

Since the death of Willie's mother, her father, Mr. Blois, seemed to have a hole in her heart that could never be filled.

He was always cheerful, as if even his own emotions had been sealed, and he never showed a smile again.

He poured all the love for his wife into little Wei Li.

Excessive spoiling and protection have made Willie rarely have access to outsiders since she was a child.Not to mention peers, even adults are just a few maids who take care of her daily life.

Perhaps because of this, Wei Li, who had spoken very late, was sensible until she was over six years old.

In her world, apart from her father and her own bedroom, there is no other existence.

Until one day, a pair of guests came to Blois Castle...

"Mr. Blois, thank you for allowing us to stay in Guibao for a while. To be honest, the best vacation I have ever had in my life is the count of the time when my father brought me to set up Guibao. ..."

In a reception hall in Fort Blois, Willie's father sat opposite a couple, chatting peacefully.

And behind the sofa where the couple were sitting, a little girl was standing beside her with sensibility.Looking at her very ladylike standing posture, she has obviously undergone excellent etiquette teaching.

But if you look at her big, smart eyes, you can tell that this girl may not be as clever as it appears on the surface.

"You're welcome," Mr. Blois said calmly, "Our two families have been friendly for generations. It's just an overnight stay. It's not a big deal... Apart from anything else, there are so many rooms in the castle!"

Even with a polite smile, Keverly's father still looked dumb.Although he has been well-educated by heirs since he was a child, this expression is not so disgusting, but a sense of distance always arises spontaneously.

"Haha, this couldn't be better!" The man smiled heartily, "Speaking of which, we had tried Quidditch on the hillside behind the castle! Now that I want to come, I really miss it— "

"……Indeed it is."

Mr. Blois's complexion changed slightly, and he nodded coldly.

If it is an ordinary guest, it is natural not to speak shallowly, so even a straight-faced conversation will not create an awkward atmosphere.

But the couple in front of them, especially this man, were not only family acquaintances with the Blois family, they even had a wonderful friendship time with the Blois couple.

In this case, Wei Li's father still looks expressionless, and it is easy to be cold.

"Eric, maybe I'm a little troublesome, but..." the other party persuaded slightly, "Ina's death is indeed very sad, but don't you still have a daughter? If you stay like this, To the children..."

Back in the mountains, he and Blois were not the only ones.Villy's mother, who had just met Mr. Blois, was also there at the time, and cheered for them both with a laugh.

Although after that, the Blois couple did not fall in love immediately-they were still in school at the time!But when it comes to the emotional experience of their husband and wife, it is an inevitable beginning.

From the moment the other party abandons the last name and calls him "Eric", this is a conversation between friends.

"You won't understand."

Mr. Blois shook his head lightly and interrupted the topic.

Seeing that the friend didn't want to talk more, the other party sighed and took the initiative to lead the topic elsewhere.

This is the case with the wizarding family that is proud of pure blood. When both parties bear their family names, their position no longer allows them to speak freely.

Even a former friend can become an enemy if he is not careful.

In most cases, maintaining friendship between families is far more heavier and more complicated than maintaining friendship between individuals.

"Crack."

After another flat and polite conversation, Mr. Blois shook his wand and made a soft noise.Immediately, a pair of servants quietly approached after knocking on the door, leading the guest family to the guest room that was already prepared.

The remaining Mr. Blois took another sip of the afternoon tea on the table, and squinted his eyes, facing the gentle sunlight outside the window.

On his face, in addition to fatigue, it was also a little more complicated.

After a while, Blois opened his eyes again.The dazzling sunlight seemed to make him a little bit at a loss. He dangled his eyes and turned his head to avoid it.

"...Perhaps, the space I left for Wei Li... is indeed too'small'."

Just now, the conversation with his old friends made him involuntarily recall that year.

Willie's mother has always been a woman who loves to laugh.Although I don't talk much on weekdays, the kind and warm smile has never been lost.

Moreover, even though she is not good at speaking, she has always liked making friends.

He was thinking, maybe his daughter should be like that.

"Crack."

With another soft noise, another servant pushed in and stood beside Blois and waited for orders.

"Is Willie in the bedroom now?" He asked softly, with a touch of softness in his tone.

After getting an affirmative answer, accompanied by a very small explosion, Blois disappeared from the living room, and appeared in front of Wei Li's bedroom again.

"Tuk Tuk"

The door was quickly opened, and a middle-aged maid stood by the door and bowed a little.

"father."

In the bedroom, little Willie is sitting at the desk, flipping through a picture book called "Fantastic Aquatic Plants".Her crystal white hair was turned into shiny gold by Mr. Black's magic.

It was a flawless gold that could reflect dazzling light in the sun, just as brilliant as her mother.

Hearing the sound coming from the door, Xiao Wei Li turned around, blinked her big eyes, and called him quietly.

Yes, it is "father", not "dad".

This is the second word that Willie has learned since "mother" and has been using it till now.Mr. Blois did not try to correct her, because he himself felt that he was not worthy of being called "Dad" by his daughter.

"Well, Willie...what are you reading?" Blois asked softly, leaning closer.

"Flower." Xiao Weili said calmly, "in the water, beautiful...eating people."

"Really?" Blois nodded, "Well, it's really beautiful."

The father and daughter seemed strange to others. They were all expressionless, and they both spoke superficial and plain words to each other. They often talked for a long time without a single point.

The daughter's words are naturally still very ignorant, so it is not surprising to say so.But the father seemed to be afraid that he might have said something wrong, so he would inadvertently hurt his daughter, and his hands that touched his daughter were awkward and trembling.

After a period of tasteless conversation, it seemed that Wei Li's father had finally made up his mind.

"Villy, do you... want to have a friend?" he asked cautiously.

"'Friend-friend'?" Xiao Weili said blankly, "'Friend'...what is it?"

"You can just play together, eat together, talk together... Hmm..." Mr. Blois hesitated, as if examining what he had said before continuing, "...In short, People who feel so...very warm when we are together."

Little Wei Li looked at her a little nervous father, then looked at the picture album in her hand, and tilted her head for a moment.

"Well," she finally nodded, "friend...very good."

...

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Wei Li took her father's big hand and appeared in the dining room of the main castle.

It can be seen that she is actually a little uncomfortable, but her curiosity has overshadowed her timidity. She is scanning everything fresh around her with her bright eyes.

Mr. Blois sat on the main seat and looked at his daughter's eyes, full of deep affection.

Before long, the door of the restaurant was gently pushed open.The pair of guests who were invited to have breakfast came in with their daughter.

Xiao Wei Li's gaze immediately fell on the girl behind the guest, and she stared at the other person without blinking, without moving away.

She seemed to notice Xiao Wei Li's sight, and the girl also looked towards her.

In just an instant, the two eyes seemed to merge together, and a strange feeling could not stop breeding in Xiao Wei Li's heart.

"Perhaps, that's the feeling of wanting to smile at each other, right?"

After a long time, when she remembered the girl again, Wei Li vaguely understood the vague warmth in her heart.

Throughout breakfast, she and the girl looked at each other.Maybe the other party was only curious about her peers who looked dumb, but she realized for the first time what the word "friend" means to her.

"Hello, my name is'Ava Cleroy'...you can call me Ava."

After breakfast, with the acquiescence of her parents, the little girl greeted her first in a clever and sensible manner.

"My name is... Wei, Wei Li... Broba?" Little Wei Li is still stubborn, but her hasty tone and broken syllables make her look a little more cute.
