Pauce published an obituary in London's largest newspaper.

She originally wanted to put a photo of Tom on it, but after looking around, she found that she and Tom did not have a photo together, and Tom did not have any photos of himself left with her, but Little Red took a lot of photos, and she looked at the photos of her son at home, and her determination became stronger.

Pauss made the name 'Tom Marvolo Riddle' bold and black and enlarged two font sizes, for fear that others would not be able to see it, and as for the time and place of the funeral, it could only be written in small letters below.

Then she went to the orphanage again and visited Mrs. Cole - God forbid, she was alive. She is now an old lady with a full head of silver, still full of energy. She loved to drink as much as Susan, and she could smell the gin in her office, and she looked at a glass in the corner of the table, which was not a cough potion, but wine.

"You may be seated, please be seated. You say you're ......," Mrs. Cole had forgotten that Pauss had introduced herself before she entered the door.

"I'm Tom's wife, you must remember Tom, don't you?" Paussy sat in a chair at her desk with her small handbag.

"Yes, Tom, yes, I remember him." Mrs. Cole thought for a moment before she said this, and she looked at Paoth in astonishment, looking her up and down, as if she thought she was dressed very differently from what she had imagined Tom's wife.

"It's amazing! So, are you his wife? Oh, I never thought he would get married. Of course, congratulations. She stood up and held out her hand to Rose.

Rose took her hand and said, "Thank you." ”

Mrs. Cole turned and took out her bottle, "Let's have a drink and celebrate." She quickly poured a cup for Paus, only a shallow one of them when she stopped her, and then filled her cup of 'cough potion', and seeing that it was about to overflow, she hurried up and took a big sip.

"So, did you come to me for something?" Mrs. Cole asked her after taking two sips of half a glass of wine.

She took out her handkerchief, stroked it lightly from the corner of her eye, and said, "I'm here to invite you to Tom's funeral." ”

Mrs. Cole was stunned for a moment, then stammered, "Oh, that's a ...... I'm not surprised. She sighed and picked up the bottle, "One more glass." After Pauss refused, she poured herself full again.

She took the glass and said, "I'm not surprised. You know, Tom has been like that since he was a kid. She took a sip of wine and said, "I don't know how you could marry him, and I want me to say that he is not a good man to be a husband." He's going to die so early, I'd say I saw it a long time ago. She burped and asked, "How did he die?" ”

I'm afraid she already thinks of Tom as a criminal in her heart, right?

Baosi couldn't argue that she was wrong, but she was still a little uncomfortable.

She covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "He's a seaman, and then ......," and she bowed her head in grief.

"Oh, that's a shame." Of course, Mrs. Cole thought she understood the cause of Tom's death, and she wanted to say that this death was much better than she thought, "I didn't expect Tom to be able to go to work honestly, and it seems that the child is still getting better." She had always thought that Tom would become a robber and thief when he left the orphanage.

Poise invites Mrs. Cole to Tom's funeral, and she calls Tom's children to the current address of the orphanage who was at the same time as Tom.

Then she went to order the coffin.

The owner of the coffin shop said sadly: "Please mourn, this is really a tragedy." When do you need it? We'll get you ready in no time. ”

Then the boss asks her about Tom's height and weight so that he can order a coffin that fits him.

Ross was stuck again, she had never known about Tom's height and weight. Come to think of it, Tom had never told her to buy clothes for him or anything, so of course she didn't know.

She had to look around the shop, and finally stared at the coffin shop owner and said, "He's probably a head taller than you, a little thinner than you." She figured to the figure of the coffin shop owner.

The coffin shop owner's smile stiffened slightly, and he coughed twice and continued to smile: "You said he was a seaman, and all the seafarers I have seen are very burly. He grimaced and laughed, "It's not like me at all." ”

Baosi laughed along: "He's pretty white-skinned. ”

The coffin shop owner stopped dwelling on the topic and said, "So when do you need it?" ”

Will she be able to do it next Sunday? If you can, it's that day.

"Absolutely." The owner of the coffin shop made a bag ticket, then asked Baosi to choose the color, wood and pattern, and finally sent her out himself.

Coming out of the coffin shop, Rose went to the flower shop. Flowers were needed for the funeral, and the florist gave her some options: "Do you think you need white lilies or something else?" However, the florist then complained that there were not many flowers in the season.

But lilies are too expensive.

Baosi grabbed her purse and worried, it can be said that she has not worried about money since she reunited with Tom, but unfortunately now Tom is 'dead', so her money is only in and out during this time, and it is spent too quickly. Considering that Tom is unlikely to 'live' again in the future, and the two don't know what it will be like to meet again.

She began to regret that she had bought Tom such a good coffin, and besides, there was a tombstone in the back, and she had to ask someone to engrave it on it.

She asked the florist, "What flowers do you have now?" "The cheaper, the better.

"Red Rose." The florist said that Valentine's Day is coming soon, and this flower is the most, "It's still very cheap to buy now, and it won't be this price in another month." ”

So she ordered a thousand red roses.

- Symbolizes her unforgettable 'love' for Tom.

It was a cloudy day on the day of the funeral, and Ross wore a newly made black dress and a hat with a veil on it, and slowly walked out of the house in the company of her neighbors. Behind her was a man in the neighborhood who helped carry the coffin.

The coffin was very light, and there was a pillow and a suit that Paoth had bought improvised from the street, and she had given it a pair of leather shoes, a cane, and a gentleman's hat, and treated Tom as if he were a gentleman. The neighbor also said that since he was a seaman, should he put some seafarers' things? So she found another set of old seafarer's clothes and put them in with her.

All the way to the cemetery, the pit had already been dug. The priest stood there with his Bible in hand, surrounded by people who had come to the funeral, and Paise heard someone say, "Is Tom really dead?" God forbid, I've always felt that hell is more suitable for him, and he will definitely find friends there. ”

She peeked over and saw that there were several boys about Tom's age, dressed in old clothes, probably for the funeral, and they had specially worn bow ties, which were tied crookedly, and they looked very uncomfortable, and from time to time they loosened their necklines.

The priest forgave 'the poor boy's sins' and said, 'May his soul rest in heaven', and then crossed and said 'Amen', and all of them bowed their heads together and said 'Amen', and Pauss cried and fell aside, and the coffin was slowly lowered into the dug pit. The crowd began to offer flowers, which were prepared and placed next to them for others to use.

Rose was the first, and she stood there, holding a red rose that had not yet opened, and kissed it on her lips.

- Goodbye, my husband.

Then she threw the flower down, and the flower fell lightly into the pit, and fell on the coffin, looking very inconspicuous, and when she walked away, the roses thrown by the people behind quickly drowned the one she had thrown down first, and no one could tell which one was hers.

She had been standing with a few female neighbors, her handkerchief over her face, showing how sad she was for her husband's departure. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw an old man with a white beard in the crowd, and chuckled at her slightly, but when he looked over, he couldn't find it.

The funeral ended quickly, and after the tombstone was erected, the crowd sighed in front of his grave for a while before gradually dispersed.

"Well, please mourn." A young man with brown hair stepped forward nervously and crampedly to pay his respects to Rose.

"Thank you, you're so kind." Paucus thanked him and recognized him as one of the people who had just said that Tom should go to hell.

The young man smiled awkwardly, scratched his hair and said, "I'm Billy Stubbs, you may not know me, I'm with Tom...... That, used to be in an orphanage, and then he went to school. He shrugged, seeming a little disdainful.

Paose quickly remembers Billy from memory with a fat rabbit, and she laughs and says, "No, I remember you." Tom told me about it, and he said he was a very good friend with you. ”

"Really?! What did he say? This Billy was obviously very surprised, and I am afraid that this sentence surprised him more than Tom's funeral.

"I didn't expect that." He was silent for a moment, then looked up at Rose and said, "Although we had some unpleasantness with Tom, his death was a tragedy. Please don't be too sad. ”

“…… Thank you. Pauss said in a complicated voice, watching him go away with a group of people, who were probably all companions in Tom's orphanage.

- If Tom was here, I wonder if he would regret saying so many bad things about these kids before?

Baoth thought for a second: no, he knew that he would only curse them more viciously in the future.

After the funeral, some of the people who didn't leave sent Paules home, and she brought out sandwiches, cakes, and cookies that she had prepared for them to eat. It wasn't until eleven o'clock in the evening that the group took their leave, and they even ate the last bit of butter and jam she had left in the kitchen with bread.

She was so tired that she decided to clean up her room tomorrow. When she fell asleep, it seemed that it was only a short time before someone woke her up rudely!

She felt like she had been whipped with a whip! When she woke up, she held her burning arms and looked at the woman standing in front of her bed, dressed in the same wizard's robe as Tom, looking at her fiercely and viciously.

"Get up at once! You filthy Muggle! ”
