Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 1313 Another "Sorry"
"Delphi? Delphi?"
At the table, Maca stretched out her fingers and dangled in front of the child, teasing her with a smile.Behind him, Luna looked at the scene curiously and seemed to be eager to try.
Maybe it's because Maca has never been around. Little Delphi is a little wary of the strange man, and seems not very happy to play with Maca.
Not long after, Maca shook his head pretentiously with regret, then raised his eyebrows and said:
"It seems that even if I want to recognize her as a daughter, she may not agree to it, right?"
"How can we blame our cute little Delphi?" Cathy, who was holding the baby, suddenly said unwillingly, "It's just that you are incompetent as a'daddy'!"
"Oh, okay, okay! I admit that..." Maca immediately shrugged, "Well, then let me think about... this way! I'll give our little Delphi a birthday present!"
While speaking, he quickly stretched out his hand into his arms, and then took out a string of necklace-like things from his chest pocket.
That's right, in terms of time, Little Delphi is actually already one year old.
And the next moment, I heard a child sitting across from suddenly surprised:
"Time converter?"
"Oh, you know it?" Maca's face was very calm, and he nodded immediately, "Yes, time converter-and it's a very special one."
As he spoke, he held the pendant made up of the golden ring and the hourglass, and showed the edge to everyone present.
"Look, I personally carved it with Little Delphi's name."
Cathy, who was the nearest, couldn’t help but took a closer look, and soon she was surprised:
"Maca... are you really going to let Little Delphi take your last name?"
No matter how she made a fool of herself, it was just a joke.Because she didn’t even know the specific life experience of Little Delphi, she couldn’t really be Maca’s daughter no matter how she thought, so she only regarded Little Delphi as Maca’s daughter from where she picked it up, or someone else entrusted it. To the children of Maca.
In terms of Maca's past performance, the smart Cathy always thought that he shouldn't want to have such a righteous girl out of thin air.
But now, Maca actually gave his surname to Delphi!
"Oh……"
For a while, everyone here was surprised.And then, they couldn't help but feel happy for Little Delphi.
Not having a parent is definitely a very bad thing. For this, everyone present felt deeply.But if after losing his parents, he got a gentle and strong father like Maca, that would be a lucky one.
"what!"
Suddenly, Cathy, who was still immersed in astonishment just now, seemed to realize something again and couldn't help but whispered.
"Maca, you... are you coming here this time, are you planning to pick up Delphi?"
Obviously, Cathy couldn't bear it-Maca couldn't help but smile when she saw her complicated expression with some worry but trying to hide it.
"No, Little Delphi will continue to stay here! I will probably need you to work hard for the next day! Well... if you want, you can raise her up here."
"Oh! Really?" When Cathy heard it, her eyes seemed to emit a different kind of light, "This is really great... Seriously, I thought I was going to watch someone take her away sooner or later. That...well."
Cathy herself was not very old, but because of her precocity that day, Maca decided to let her help take care of little Delphi.But now Maca has discovered that Cathy's motherhood is even deeper than he thought.
As for whether there is Cathy's nostalgia for her mother, it is unclear.
Of course, Maca didn't think deeply about this issue anymore. The next moment, he saw him stretch his index finger to the small hourglass on the pendant, slashing a few characters in the sky, and applying a fixed spell on it.
"Although this thing is precious and beautiful, it is a bit dangerous after all... Well, that's fine."
After poking the hourglass in the middle and confirming that it could no longer be rotated, Maca carried the gold chain and shook it in front of Little Delphi.
Things like this kind of sparkle would naturally be children's favorites. When Little Delphi saw it, he couldn't help but reach out.
When Maca saw it, he took it into her hands.
"I remember when I just met her, she also wore a necklace around her neck-it was also a magic item, and it was also related to black magic..."
"dark magic!"
When Maca talked about this little old thing casually, everyone couldn't help but turn their attention to him again.
And then, I listened to Maca continuing:
"Yes, Black Magic—that's why I immediately decided to take the necklace away. Now, this is my compensation for her!"
"Could it be..." Cathy heard him say that and couldn't help but subconsciously asked, "then there was little Delphi's name on that necklace? That's why you—"
"Ok?"
These words of her made Maca feel a little surprised.To be honest, what he has been thinking about since then is certain other things, and this reason he has never thought of.
Only after hesitating a little, he nodded immediately.
"Yes, that's right... Anyway, she should have a surname, but for some reason, it turns out that that one is no longer usable."
Maca confirmed Cathy’s conjecture, but in fact, how could Voldemort even think of engraving a name on his daughter’s necklace?
Even the necklace that contained black magic at the beginning contained only his selfishness.
Of course, Maca is not only unwilling to mention this kind of thing, but also too lazy to think about it.No matter what Tom Riddle's intention was to leave a necklace to his daughter, it will no longer play a role today.
Because Maca had already ruined that thing.
Throwing aside some memories in his head, Maca once again reached out and touched Little Delphi's hair.Seeing that little guy only looked up at him, he immediately turned his attention to the shiny time converter, and Maca then gave a smile.
It seems that because of this cute little gift, she can barely accept Maca's touch.
"That's right," turning his head slightly, Macafu looked at Cathy again, "When she grows up, remember to help her put it away, and you will give it to her in the future."
"You don't need to say this!" Cathy immediately waved her hand when she heard the words, and said as an adult, "How to raise a daughter, I definitely know better than you."
When everyone couldn't help laughing out, she stared at her eagerly and looked around, and then she couldn't help herself and giggled.
Perhaps it was only when she was smiling that this little Cathy really showed the feeling of a child.
And when the children around the table were laughing and interrupting, everyone suddenly heard a shout from outside the door of the restaurant, which caused them to stop laughing and turn their heads.
"Maca—"
"What's the matter, Veri?" Maca looked at the figure that suddenly rushed from the side of the door to the door, and said loudly, "Is the fertilizer applied? Huh? Didn't you meet Helen? She went to the atrium to look for you!
"Helen?"
Wei Li probably ran all the way, and by now she still looked a little panting.After seeing her relax, she said in confusion:
"No...Huh?"
"Really?" When Maca heard it, she shrugged, "That's probably the reason you two went wrong."
"Well?"
Wei Li stood at the door in a daze for a while, and looked around the door alternately, before she turned her head back and ran out somewhat unwillingly.
Not long after, when everyone discovered that Helen was running back by himself while shouting "Where is Villi", Maca suddenly chuckled and said:
"Are you two playing hide-and-seek? Hey... Helen, don't run back anymore, just stay here and wait for her!"
Seeing the children who had been rescued from the dungeon by himself, they all smiled and joked about Helen, and the smile on Maca's face increased a little.
But after smiling, when he once again moved his gaze to the little Delphi in Cathy's arms, there was an inexplicable trace of apologize in that smile.
At this moment, except for Luna who always stood behind him and looked at him silently, no one had noticed the slight change in his expression.
"Sorry."
In Maca's heart, this vocabulary that had been spoken to the "future" Delphi in Saint Mungo, but now it flows quickly.
What is he apologizing for?
At least for now, only he himself knows the reason, and even Luna is absolutely unaware of it.
However, the next moment Maca suddenly felt a slight warmth in the palm of his hand, and a small hand came up quietly and shook it lightly.
He looked back suddenly, and saw Luna blinking her big transparent silver-gray eyes, and a reassuring arc formed at the corners of her mouth.
"Thank you."
Maca didn't feel surprised by her sharpness, but he didn't give any explanation. He just moved his lips to Luna and thanked her silently.
Soon, when Willie ran in from outside again panting, Maca finally left here and stepped on her legs to meet her.
He and Luna did not stay long in Fort Blois.
After that, he just sat down with everyone and chatted for a while, and asked them how they had been in life recently.After hearing that Mr. Blois had arranged for them a good teacher, he inquired about specific courses along the topic and discussed some courses with everyone at will.
Yes, it seems that he really just came to visit everyone this time, nothing more.
