Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 818: The Lost Little Girl
When you want to get to know a person, the most effective way is of course to get along with that person directly.
But what if that person is something you cannot easily reach?
In fact, this is not complicated, you just need to ask other people around the other person.As long as you are good at listening and analyzing, and try to sum up the influence that person has on the surroundings, you can gain indirectly in some details.
After all, no matter how good a person is to hide and pretend, he will always show his true shape at some inadvertent time.
However, sometimes the problem is that people around the other person may not be willing to share their views of that person with you.So, what should you do in this dead end?
Don't be discouraged, give somebody around him a sensation!
"...Well, at least I wouldn't write it like this."
Maca shrugged, and by the way took out an empty potion bottle from his sleeve, plugged the cork and put it back into the bag at his waist.
Before the potion bottle was stuffed in, you could see an inconspicuous word-"Veritaserum" written on the label of the bottle.
"What is your full name?"
"Mario Simens Augustine."
"I didn't ask you."
Veritaserum for volatile hair has this shortcoming, and it is prone to accidental injury when used.With a wave of his hand, Macaroon directly sent a coma spell to the Master Augustin, causing him to lie down and sleep.
But compared to Mallor's rapid effect, Milian, who was closer to Maca, only had her eyes straightened.It can be seen that her strong will has given her good spiritual resistance.
It's a pity that the effect of Veritaserum is not just a magical effect, the accelerated exhaustion of the body is also constantly consuming her perseverance.
Not long after, she finally spit out a word with her lips shaking:
"My name is Miriam."
...
As a child, Milian lived in a rich and happy family.
She was born in London, England in the 1970s, to both Muggle parents.Although both parents are the kind of people who value career and avoid family, they don't even care about their children for work.
Even if the company of the family is indeed less, on the weekly rest days, they will take Xiao Mi Lian to the outskirts of the city for picnics.
On weekdays, she grew up under the care of a kind-hearted maid before she was of school age.
Thinking about it now, that may be the happiest time she has ever had in her life.
There are delicious meals when you are hungry, and fresh juice when you are thirsty.Even though parents can only see each other in the morning and evening, as a child, she is still content.
What's more, she also met a boy about her own age in a small park near her home.
Although the boy's clothes are not as bright and beautiful as hers, they are equally clean and tidy.Moreover, the other party's personality is also very sunny, and can always convey laughter to her heart in the rainy and rainy days of London.
Yes, that boy seems to be called "Asaph".
However, on the day before her seventh birthday, Xiao Mi Lian's parents suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
Yes, it "disappeared".
In fact, even she herself did not discover the bizarre disappearance of her parents at first.Even when she realized that she was the only one left at home, she never had any doubts about this status quo.
Even the maid who was originally employed by her family seemed to have forgotten the job and never showed up again.
But in this situation, how can Xiaomi Lian, who has just turned seven, live alone?
The food at home ran out, and she also tasted the taste of hunger for the first time.After that, she slowly began to lose strength again, and it was extremely difficult to even lift the corner of her mouth.
As a result, this cheerful and energetic girl soon lost her former vitality.
Facts have proved that even a 7-year-old child will want to struggle when he realizes that he is in desperation.
Xiao Mi Lian suddenly understood vaguely that she must go out and leave this empty home.
"Asaph? Asaph..."
When she struggled to support her body and opened the door to the street outside, her genius was just brightened.And she didn't even know how many mornings it was.
Xiao Mi Lian didn't know who to find, so she could only choose a name that was most familiar to her.Even if she shouted weakly, it might be better than not shouting.
"Asaph... Asaph!"
She never met the sunny boy with a fair face.
Maybe the other party is in the park right now?
As in the past, waiting for her to play together... Although she didn't know, when did the boy go to the park every day.
Unfortunately, this answer, she seems to never know...
As the ankle softened, Xiaomi Li'an suddenly fell onto the slippery ground.The palms and cheeks touching the ground felt cold, almost covering up the pain after the fall.
Oh, did it rain again last night?I don’t know if Asaph didn’t bring an umbrella today...
Her consciousness began to become hazy, and the floor tiles in front of her had become dusty.Even the opposite street that happened to be reflected in the puddle was mixed together, and the color faded slowly like a dream.
Sleeping on the ground, dad will be angry...well, dad...who is it?
When this question flashed through her heart, she plunged into darkness completely.
In fact, even now, it would be hard for Miriam to believe that she would have the moment to wake up.But no matter what, she woke up.
At the moment when she opened her eyelids, Xiaomi Lian's vision was still blurred.It wasn't until she raised her hand and rubbed her eyes that everything in front of her really came into her mind.
"Asaph!"
Although she can still feel her weakness, she can see an acquaintance when she opens her eyes. That sense of peace of mind is undoubtedly extremely important for a little girl.
"Oh, Miriam, are you awake?"
Asaph, who was sitting on the edge of the opposite bed just now dozing off, jumped out of the bed and ran in front of her, and looked at her back and forth.
"Ah, yeah..." Xiaomi Li'an blinked her eyes, her long eyelashes immediately showed a bit of agility, "When did I fall asleep? Where is this?"
Most of the two questions were heard by Assad, but he didn't have time to bother at all, Dang Even turned and rushed out of the room.
"Grandpa LaVine! Grandpa LaVine! Miriam is awake--"
Listening to the shouts in the corridor, she gradually moved away. Suddenly, Xiao Mi Lian, who was staying in this strange room, shrank her body and wrapped her quilt tightly.
It was only then that she had time to take a quick glance at this room.
This is a multi-person bedroom with very simple decoration...No, it can be called a simple bedroom.There are a total of four beds, two old wooden desks, and a half-open grid window.
Looking out the window from her, the blue sky was divided into pieces by the diamond-shaped grille in front of the window, and some flowing clouds drifted quietly to the invisible places among the grids.
Judging from the feeling that you can't see anything except the sky wall from the outside, this room is at least three floors above.Because looking out in the attic of her house, it is similar to here.
Of course, the sky in London is gray and white most of the time. It is really not easy to see such a fresh blue color.
"Tuk Tuk."
Xiao Mi Lian, who was shrinking her neck and staring out of the window, was interrupted by two light knocks on the door.She turned her head timidly and looked towards the door.
"Millian, this is Grandpa LaVine, he saved us the other day!"
Compared with Asana's excited expression, Xiaomi Lian's face was more scared.
In a blink of an eye, she saw that an old man was coming in behind Asaph.The old man sat on a wheeled chair and was pushed to the foot of the bed by an uncle.
And the old man lying limp on the strange chair was not only as thin as wood and his hands like bird's claws, but even his eyes seemed to carry a gloomy and cold breath.
When seeing each other, Xiaomi Li'an had only one word in her heart-terrible!
"Oh, don't worry, Grandpa LaVine is a good person."
Seeing that Xiaomi Li'an's face was a little confused, Asaph finally remembered how he felt when he first saw this grandfather.
Indeed, that is definitely not a good start.
However, he had no one to comfort him at the time, but now Miriam can be comforted by him?
"Relax, didn't I just say it! Grandpa Lavin saved us-otherwise, not only would I die, but you would starve to death by the roadside!"
Unlike Xiaomi Li'an, Asaph has witnessed the death of his relatives since he was a child, and he also understood some of the meaning of death.
When Old Eun rescued him from a certain life crisis, the transition from approaching death to rebirth was like an incredible miracle.
"Good guy?"
Million Lian gripped the quilt tightly, still curled her neck and glanced in the direction of Old Eun.
"Well, it just happens to be lunch time, why not have something delicious first!"
Old You En smiled suddenly, and his wrinkled skin moved, making his skinny face just a little more amiable.
...
"... Later, I lived there, with Asaph."
After hearing Miriam say this, Maca calculated the time in his heart, and soon understood some of the situation.
For example, in that era, it happened to be the time when Voldemort was reaching the peak of power.At that time, the activities of the Death Eaters were quite frequent.
In those few years, Dumbledore's Order of the Phoenix also came into being.
It seems that the collapse of the Miriam family happened at the worst time before the Order of the Phoenix was founded.I can only say that I was very lucky to survive in that situation.
"So, what about the days after living there?" Maca asked next.
