harry potter book of crimes

The pain in Delphi's heart is really beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. At least for now, even Maka, who is hugging her gently, is far from being able to fully understand her feelings.

There is no doubt that although Delphi has not told everything before, the experiences she told Maka can be said to be true.

To be able to reach this point, she has experienced too many hardships and has grown up in that war-torn environment. Even if she has a narrow escape, it is not an exaggeration.

This girl is really having a hard time.

"Dad...you know? Although you are not the father in the future, there is really not much difference between you now and you in the future. When I came to this era and saw you for the first time, I felt like

I was shocked”

"Really, apart from looking much younger, your words, deeds, and actions have not changed much in the past ten years or so. You are still so gentle and powerful. Even though I have gone through so many hardships, every day

I haven't slacked off every night, but I still can't catch up with you more than ten years ago."

"Dad, don't worry... Although I did hate you because of Sister Cathy's death. But after that, you took me around, protecting me, teaching me magic, and working with Haierbo's men.

During the years of fighting, I have deeply understood how difficult it is for you. Maybe you don’t know it yet, but we have already reconciled..."

"And Tom Riddle, although he is my biological father, I actually don't miss him at all. In my memory, there are only the days when I lived happily with everyone at Castle Blois, and you

Stay with me carefully and be a good father seriously."

"Dad, I...I have too many things to say to you, really..."

Listening to the girl in his arms whispering in a low voice, her voice became softer and softer as she spoke, and finally she fell asleep in his arms. When Maka saw this, she couldn't help but sigh softly.

It was actually hard for him to imagine how tense a person had to be in order to relax and fall asleep standing like this. But at least he understood that Delphi was really tired and much more tired than he was.

.

To be honest, Maka still has a lot of questions in his stomach that he wants to ask! But looking at the situation now, he thinks it’s better to forget it for the time being!

The next moment, Maka twisted slightly and carried Delphi on her back. After some hesitation, she chose to go to Diagon Alley.

Because he still remembered that Delphi didn't seem to want to go to St. Mungo's... He didn't know what the reason was?

…

"Maka?"

As soon as she arrived near the entrance of the Leaky Cauldron, the first people Maka bumped into were Harry and Neville. She saw them standing on both sides of the bar door, one on the left and the other on the right. They looked like the kind of people who would be placed in front of a shop in Chinatown.

stone lion.

"You are here..." Maka lightly jumped down from the magic book and looked at the blood stains on the two of them and said, "How are you? Nothing happened?"

"Oh, no," Harry said immediately, "Before we got here, Sirius and the others' counterattack had been successfully completed. Now they are exploring outside from here. If anything happens, the two of us will also

Go help."

"Yes," Neville on the side immediately followed, "but for now we are responsible for guarding the gate."

"Is that so?" Maka nodded, "Very good. Defending Diagon Alley is a very important task, and it seems to be a good fit for you... Keep up the good work, and pay attention to safety!"

After that, he was about to walk through the door as if nothing had happened, but he saw Harry couldn't help but said hesitantly:

"Maka, that beautiful girl you are carrying behind your back...who is she?"

"What you have seen is that she always wears a windbreaker and a hat, so you can't recognize her. Well, don't worry, she was just too tired and fell asleep."

As Maka spoke, she kept walking. As soon as she finished speaking, the person left. Harry and Neville looked at the closed door of the bar outside the door, and after a few seconds they couldn't help but look at each other.

"How beautiful!"

"Harry, are you really okay with this? Be careful I tell Ginny."

"You've been staring too! Be careful I tell Hannah!"

"Well... it's okay to tell Hannah, just don't tell Hermione... Oh, or should we remind Hermione and Luna later?"

"Go to you! I haven't lived enough yet..."

Listening to the conversation coming from outside the door behind her, Maka could only shake her head helplessly, and then casually said hello to Lupine who was staying in the Leaky Cauldron Bar.

"I'll go up first. If you have anything to do, wait until I come down later to talk about it."

Naturally, Lupin was not the only one in this bar. Everyone saw Maka carrying Delphi upstairs, and they immediately began to secretly discuss among themselves. When everything was in a mess, where did Maka come from?

Bringing back such a beautiful woman?

However, doubts are doubts, and everyone still has a lot to do at this moment. Even if it is gossip, it will have to wait until we find a way to get through this disaster.

Upstairs, Maka could naturally hear the discussions downstairs, and even knew that there might be some unscrupulous guys thinking about dirty things. But he couldn't go down and strangle them all, so

We can only let it go.

After all, even if you tell them that Delphi is your "daughter", few people will believe it, right?

After going to the corridor upstairs, Maka randomly picked a room on the inside, gently put Delphi, who was still sleeping, on the bed and covered her with a quilt.

After he placed Delphi in place and left a few protective spells on the door, he creaked down the stairs again.

"Want a bottle of butterbeer? I'll give it to you for free for Old Tom!"

Hearing Lupine sitting behind the bar say this, Maka immediately waved her hands and said:

"Goodbye, I'm not thirsty right now, and I'm not in the same mood... just tell me! Did you gain anything from the previous counterattack and subsequent search? Or is there anything worth noting?"

"Is the strength of Harry and Neville something noteworthy?" Lupine heard this and put down the bottle and said, "You may not know yet, but these two children not only saved many people when they came here,

, and even cooperated with each other to kill a guy with black eyes!"

"oh?"

When Maka heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Not to mention that he had also fought against the Collector himself. Just seeing how hard it had been for Haierbo to create them one by one, one could tell that the strength of those guys should not be underestimated.

"Well, I have to remember to praise them both later!"
