Chapter 372: Estrangement
"Wood, take my word for it, I have a feeling that your place may be in great danger in the near future. Before danger comes, I hope to explain to them that the wizarding world will welcome them. Lilia said that because she had never been in contact with Wood, she didn't know much about Wood, and Lilia didn't know how to get along with her son, who hadn't seen her for many years.
Lilia could feel that Wood was afraid that he was in the same mood as herself, although she wanted to get close to each other, but because she didn't understand it, she hadn't been in contact, so that the two of them didn't know what to do when facing family affection, and they felt a little at a loss.
"Lilia is right, even if they are not in danger now, but you should have seen a lot more things in the Elven Kingdom than we have seen, and they will not let go of any country. Our magical world is still quite strong, and we can resist the attacks from the elven kingdom. But those small countries, when they encounter strong opponents, their power will be very weak. Madame came forward to explain, and seeing that Wood did not look like she wanted to answer, Madame was still a little worried about Wood.
Wood's reaction was also something that Madame did not expect, but Madame believed that Wood was a kind and good boy, and it was possible that he could not accept it for a while. As long as they become familiar with each other after a long time, these barriers will naturally disappear.
"I'll go back in a few days, if they want to come or not, that's their business, and if they don't come, it doesn't matter, it's not that far from here, you know. So, if they don't come, I'll stay there with them, Bird Silent Academy, I shouldn't be able to stay, the death of the parents of those classmates is related to me. Wood finished speaking, holding back a self-deprecating smile.
His thoughts stunned both Madame and Lilia.
"Wood, this matter has nothing to do with you, it is their parents who are not right first, you don't have too much pressure in your heart. Madame felt that Wood should have put too much pressure on herself, and Wood had not yet come out of it from what had happened last time.
"It's a fact, whether their parents were killed by me or not, they are inescapable of being responsible. I haven't told Principal Brooke about this yet, the new semester is coming soon, and I chose to drop out of school so that I don't have to make my classmates who have lost their parents face me every day, which will also make me very uncomfortable. Wood was serious, he had thought about it for a long time before deciding.
Although Wood is reluctant to let his friends and professors go, Wood can't do it anyway to make himself face those classmates who are implicated by him every day. Dropping out of school is the way to do well.
However, Wood does not want to stay in the wizarding world forever, everything in Colt Town makes Wood miss it very much, and if possible, Wood will return to Colt Town.
If Bugg doesn't object, they will be able to withstand the danger even if it is a big one.
This is the retreat that Wood thinks of for himself, and it is also the outcome he wants to see the most.
"Wood, you want ...... Leaving us?" Hearing Wood's words, Lilia was obviously very excited, she didn't expect that Wood actually thought like this in his heart, he had just come back, and he was thinking about his departure.
"No, you can come by at any time if you like, and you will be more than welcome. Wood said very indifferently, as if he had now returned to Colt Town.
"Wood, I think I still have to ask Brooke's opinion on this matter before making a decision, I believe that if Brooke knew what you thought, he wouldn't be too reluctant to let you stay. Brooke might have a better idea than this, don't make a decision just yet, we'll talk about it in a few days. Madame stepped forward and interrupted the conversation between the two men.
"Yes, Madame said, let's not rush to make a decision, and wait until Headmaster Brooke has thought about it. Let's not talk about it, let's not talk about it. Lilia couldn't contain the excitement in her heart, and her hands kept shaking.
As Wood's mother, she could feel Wood's indifference to her.
Hearing Madame's words, Wood didn't say anything more, but he had already made a decision in his heart, and no matter what Principal Brooke's attitude was, his decision would not waver.
The next day, everyone got up early, and Professor Siye had already told everyone about Wood and Lilia, but they did not rush to greet them in the first place so as not to disturb their rest.
In the morning, Professor Shivala and Professor Sia were already waiting in the cafeteria, and Professor Crick, who had never been seen, was also there. Professor Mai Siqi was the last of these professors to feel.
"Professor Messy, you look very haggard, haven't you rested well?" Seeing that Professor Messy's face was a little pale, Professor Theye asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, but after hearing about Wood and Lilia, I was so excited that I didn't get a good rest. Professor McSage explained, but her explanation sounded ridiculous to Lilia.
"Yes, Messic, my best friend, I'm really happy to see you again. Just as Professor Max finished speaking, Lilia and her wife appeared at the door.
They heard the conversation between Professor Maksage and Professor Siye very clearly.
"Lilia?" Seeing Lilia appear in front of him at this time, Professor Maksage was very surprised.
"Why, were you surprised to see me?" asked Lilia.
"No, no, I'm just...... I just didn't expect you to change at all, and seeing you now is like seeing you ten years ago. Professor Makski held his head high, like a warrior ready to go.
"It's been a long time, and you're still the same, just like when we first met. Lilia said.
"Okay, since everyone has arrived, let's talk while eating, this breakfast should be the most lively one of our summers. As he spoke, Brooke felt that after Wood had fallen asleep yesterday, Mrs. Brooke came to Brooke's room and told Brooke everything Wood had thought. Brooke glanced at Wood and deliberately sat Wood next to him.
Wells and the children sat on Wood's side, and the professors and Lilia sat on Brooke's left.
Breakfast was very rich, I hadn't eaten breakfast like this for a long time, and the Wood kids were quite happy.
Brooke wanted to say something, but seeing Lilia's suggestive look, he still didn't say anything. Since Brooke didn't speak, the professors just said a few simple greetings.
