Chapter 5 Adoption is not a good thing
In the depths of the woods, Grindelwald and Tom, bound by invisible chains, continued to move deeper and deeper.....
"Grindelwald...... You..... What are you doing with me in the woods so deep? Tom's face was full of 10,000 reluctance at this time, what did he do before dawn to arrest himself?
Although he knew that Grindelwald would not hurt him, Tom always had a bad premonition.
Grindelwald also stopped at this time, looked around the surroundings, and said to himself, "There shouldn't be anyone here here..."
Tom's first instinct was that Grindelwald had discovered the wand's flaw and was now going to kill himself to vent his anger. At three or four o'clock in the morning, I was taken to this deep forest, where no one could come at all...... Anyone would think so.
Tom turned around and ran without looking back, but before he could take two steps, he pounced on as if he had tripped over something, and then was dragged back....
Tom hurriedly covered his head with his hands, and kept begging for mercy in his mouth, "I, I, I..... I was wrong! ”
If even the face is destroyed, then even if the body is found, it will not be able to recognize itself.
Seeing this, Grindelwald also realized that his actions were so misleading, but Grindelwald did not intend to explain, but instead crouched down with interest, "I heard that you can get a higher magical talent by sacrificing another young wizard alive, and I don't know if it's true or not..... " After saying that, he also swiped a dew-stained leaf through Tom's carotid artery.
Tom, who felt the chill in his neck, stiffened, and the speed of his mouth begging for mercy turned over again, "I'm not a wizard, I'm not a wizard, don't kill me, don't kill me....." and Tom trembled and reached out of his neck and felt the liquid that kept flowing from the 'wound'.....
Tom hurriedly pressed his 'wounds' with both hands, and his body writhed on the ground, and from time to time he let out a pig-killing wail.
Seeing this, Grindelwald couldn't hold it back any longer, clutched his stomach like a prawn, and laughed, "Tom, you're so stupid and cute." ”
Tom was completely oblivious to Grindelwald's ridicule, and was indulging in the fear that he was going to die, muttering incomprehensible words such as "I don't want to die yet" and "wizards are evil.....
"Alright, take this wand and wave it, armor protection!"
Without warning, a powerful shockwave suddenly exploded with Tom as the center. Grindelwald, who had barely managed to protect himself with a protective charm, was swept away by the translucent armor, breaking three thigh-thick trees before coming to a halt after a tumbling session.
"Hell, my clothes are dirty." Grindelwald spat out a mouthful of bloody spit and got up from the ground, there was no obvious wound on the outside of his body, but the dirt and fallen leaves all over his body made Grindelwald, who had a habit of cleanliness, have the urge to go crazy at this time.
Tom's whole body was like a zombie at this time, his limbs were constantly twisted, and his mouth kept repeating "Ha... Ha... If I'm going to die, I'm going to pull you on your back...."
Grindelwald looked at Tom in front of him with idiot eyes, and a clear spring gushed out from the tip of his wand and poured Tom into a soup chicken.
Tom, who was splashed with cold water, woke up from his trance and looked at his hands blankly, "What happened to me just now?" ”
"The magic went on a rampage, plus it nearly killed me. Every wizard has it when they are young, just get used to it. ”
But Grindelwald's tone of voice was one of reproach..... This dress was newly knitted for herself by Grandma Yuta.
Tom lowered his head, his eyes changed from cowardice to resentment, and said in a voice that only he could hear, "I won't be a ...... like them"
Several streams of water rolled over Grindelwald's body, washing away dirt and fallen leaves wherever they passed..... But the clothes were already stained with stains that could not be washed.
Grindelwald apparently didn't notice Tom's state, and his attention was focused on how to clean himself as much as possible, "You'd better make yourself a wand too, or else..."
"I said I couldn't be a wizard!!"
With that, Tom turned his head and rushed in the direction of the orphanage, and his anger made Tom's movements seem more pompous than the previous twisting and pinching, as if he wanted to vent all his anger.
But combined with the words just now, this behavior is more like ..... evade
"A different choice...."
.....
Today, the Olisses Orphanage has a rare guest.....
It was a couple in their forties, who were relatively wealthy in their clothing. And this is also the ideal adoptive object for children in orphanages.
The woman named Betty was putting her arms around Tom at this time, patting Tom on the back and saying, "Child, look at you skinny, you must be bullied a lot." ”
Tom's small belly and the amount of food that can last three people have nothing to do with 'thinness'.
Tom nodded again and again after thinking of Grindelwald's arrogant face and the grievances he had just suffered, and took the opportunity to rub his head against Betty, and the woman said coquettishly, "Especially the one named Grindelwald bullies me every day." ”
"Tom!" Grandma Jutta saw Tom's slander against Grindelwald and hurriedly stopped it.
Seeing this, Tom quickly hid behind Lady Betty, and when he saw that Lady Betty was still helping to protect herself, he stuck out his tongue at Grandma Juta.
George, who is the husband on the side, said, "Children, it's good to be lively, how long will it take for the adoption procedures to be completed?" After thinking about it, George was afraid that his words and deeds would cause misunderstanding, so he quickly explained, "My mansion is a little far from here, and there is a daughter at home, so I don't feel at ease to leave her at home alone." ”
Seeing that the couple was so polite, Grandma Yuta was also much more relieved, and took out the adoption contract that had been prepared long ago from the drawer: "As long as this child and you all sign it, it's fine." ”
It's often difficult to submit an application in a small town far from technology, so Grandma Yuta has already prepared an adoption contract for each child..... But the legal effect of this is....
And at this time, Grindelwald suddenly pushed open the door and walked in, at this time, Grindelwald was as high-spirited as before, with that grizzled face and hair still dripping with water, some people believed that he was a beggar.
Grindelwald walked straight through the hall and sat around the crowd talking, "I hope there's biscuits and milk..."
Grindelwald opened the kitchen cupboard and pulled out the biscuits and milk that Grandma Juta had prepared for herself, stuffed them all into her mouth, and hurriedly poured a large mouthful of milk as if she was choking. I didn't notice that the couple's eyes were all focused on themselves at this time......
Lady Betty pushed Tom away from her, pointed at Grindelwald and shouted, "We're going to adopt this child!" ”
"Ahem, cough, cough"
Grindelwald really choked this time, squirting out the cookie crumbs and milk in his mouth.
"Isn't it....."
