I swung my greatsword at Hogwarts

London, in an abandoned house.

There has been no one living here for a long time, and it is full of dust and rats and insects everywhere.

In the fireplace, the blue flame automatically ignites.

Then two people walked out of it.

However, due to the small size of the fireplace, a corpse was thrown out.

Then Gauss and Lippi came out.

"mission completed."

Gauss immediately turned his head to look at Lippi. He was very professional, but he waited until he was completely safe before collecting money.

Lippi's face turned dark, he looked at Gauss with bright eyes, turned his face away, "I'll give it to you tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Gauss's face collapsed, and he said angrily, "We will pay when the agreed task is completed."

"Purchase this first." Lippi sighed and handed the bloody blade to Gauss.

This guy who desperately wants money doesn't give face at all.

"I only give you time for the sake of my boss, and this is mine too, as interest."

As soon as Lippi took out the cigarette that was in his hand, Gauss snatched it.

Lippi looked at the empty hand and murmured, "Leave one for me anyway."

A heavy smoker, he hadn't smoked in months.

"Tsk," Gauss glanced at him, "one hundred Galleons."

"Are you robbing money?" Lippi was angry.

"Do you want love?" Gauss stuffed the cigarette into his pocket, as if he was about to leave.

"One hundred Galleons!" Lippi raised his hand with difficulty and said angrily, "We will pay the bill together tomorrow."

"okay."

Gauss took out the cigarette with a smile and offered it with both hands.

It's really one.

Lippi took a deep breath and told himself that he could not cross the river and tear down the bridge.

With trembling hands, he put the cigarette to his mouth. Just as he was about to light it, a drop of rainwater hit the bridge of his nose.

Immediately afterwards, the two looked up at the same time.

Gauss said unexpectedly: "I said that there is no light if there is no light."

There is a big hole in the ceiling, and the rain is coming quietly.

Li Pi took it, and stuffed the cigarette into his inner pocket.

next second.

The rain poured down.

Both of them became drowned chickens.

Looking at each other without words, Gauss said with a blank expression: "Let's make it clear first, we will not return the goods."

Lippi: "..." I really want to kill you.

Lippi used zombie floating to float the corpse, and he looked at Gauss who walked out the door with him.

"Where are you going?"

"Me?" Gauss looked around, tightened his clothes and said, "Of course I'm going home."

Lippi nodded, he still wanted to find Batty Sr.

The two parted ways.

Gauss watched Lippi leave, and he touched his poor pocket.

"Forget it, if you don't have money, you have no money."

He walks alone at night.

Unlike the people around him who were hurrying to hide from the rain, he walked slowly in the rain without being in a hurry.

...

London, Zolliet Welfare Home.

Gauss was standing outside when an old woman spotted him.

"who is it?"

The old woman was very vigilant.

Goss went to the eaves and took off his hat.

"Oh, God, it's you," the old woman was full of surprises, and she came to Gauss to confirm, "Gauss Ultramar."

"Do you still remember me?" Gauss said unexpectedly, "Mrs. May."

"Of course, I remember you. You used to be the most obedient child here." Mrs. May said enthusiastically, "Come in, I've been wondering where you have been all these years."

"My God, you don't even have an umbrella."

Mrs. May was the same as before, she babbled and complained that Gauss was getting wet in the rain.

It's like Gauss was caught in the rain outside when he was a child, that kind of lesson is very heartwarming.

He walked to the orphanage where he used to stay. He was a baby who was abandoned outside the monastery, and later came to the orphanage in Zolliet.

He didn't even know he was a wizard until he was 11 years old.

Mrs May is very good to every child, although more often than not they don't get enough to eat.

This is a small orphanage, and the children in it are not those cute children.

Most of them are abandoned and handicapped children, and they are sent here because other orphanages don't want them.

Because these children are destined not to be adopted.

Gauss was an accident, and the monastery regarded him as ominous, because his inadvertent magic was regarded as a monster.

He was tied up for an exorcism.

But he escaped and was picked up by Mrs. Mei outside.

The little things about here made Gauss smile.

"I remember that Xiao Er used to wet the bed during his afternoon nap, and he had missing teeth. When he smiled, he closed his mouth tightly." Gauss recalled his former friends.

"Goss," said Mrs. May suddenly, "he's dead."

"Who?" Gauss was taken aback.

Mrs. May said sadly: "Dunbar, he died in the room, it was suicide."

Dunbar was missing teeth, and one of his teeth was misshapen, and they nicknamed each other after the defect.

Gauss's smile disappeared, "Why?"

"Because of life," Mrs. May said looking around, "the orphanage is on the verge of bankruptcy, and the children don't have enough to eat. Dunbar works in the circus to lighten the burden on the orphanage, but he can't keep going."

As she spoke, Mrs. Mei burst into tears.

These people have physical impairments, and normal work will hardly require them.

Those who can want them are only those jobs with the lowest wages and the most menial.

"A few months ago, a donation was sent to the orphanage. If it had been earlier, earlier..." The old woman broke down in tears.

Under the dim light, Gauss was silent.

He raised his hand, and thunder flashed outside the window.

In a trance, he saw endless blood flowing on his hands.

Dirty, filthy.

He looked at Mrs. Mei in a daze, and silently put his hand down.

"It would have been better if it had been earlier." He muttered these words.

His friend's departure made him feel complicated.

Mrs. May cried for a while, she wiped her tears, cheered herself up, and asked, "How are you doing now?"

She was afraid that Gauss would be as overthinking as Dunbar.

Gauss smiled and said, "I'm fine, I have a job and a family."

"Family? Are you married?" Mrs. Mei was pleasantly surprised and said, "When you were young, you never liked to play with children outside. I was always worried about you."

"I'm fine," Gauss said seriously, "really."

Mrs. May was relieved.

Gauss stayed here for a long time, and when he left, the pedestrians outside were almost invisible.

Only occasionally one or two people pass by.

He walked slowly into Scorpion Tail Alley.

He didn't look at the door number, because he could walk to that place with his eyes closed.

No. 78 Xiewei Lane.

He stopped and looked at the black door.

The rain hit him like this, and he didn't move, as if he had been petrified.

"Amy, it's time to sleep."

Voices from inside.

Gauss took a deep breath, and he waited for nearly an hour with complicated emotions.

He summoned up his courage and knocked on the door.

After a while, the door was opened.

It was a woman with short hair, and the other party was also stunned when he saw Gauss.

"Snapped!"

Gauss turned his face sideways, and there was a red palm print on his left cheek.

He reached out and touched it, and said with a smile, "Have you been exercising recently?"

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, a second slap was printed on his right cheek.

The woman lowered her angry voice: "I thought you were dead, and suddenly a large sum of money was sent."

"I thought I was going to die too," Gauss sighed, "but God doesn't seem to let me see Lipia."

"Shut up!" The woman's eyes were red, "You shouldn't have mentioned her."

"My sister, your wife."

"It was you, it was you who killed her!" the woman growled, "Do you remember? The day she gave birth to Emiya, she was involved in the explosion!"

"Yes, I remember, I remember everything." Gauss smiled bitterly, "I want to see her."

"She's not a wizard!" the woman warned, "Don't bring your ambiguous grievances into this house."

"I just want to take a look," Gauss begged. "Please, Jura."

Looking at the man in front of him, Zhu La's heart softened.

Goss entered the house, tiptoeing cautiously.

He came to the second floor and gently opened a crack in the door.

He saw it, his daughter.

She and her mother were carved out of the same mold, but her eyes were like her own.

This glance is enough.

Gauss closed the door.

He looked at the girl's aunt and said, "Thank you."

Just as he was about to go out, Jura told him to stop.

"Have you made enough already, or do you just can't take the risk?"

Jura took his hand.There was a touch of softness in the voice.

"Think about Emiya, think about..."

Gauss said: "I still have some things, you know, people like me can't be with my family."

He looked at Zhu La and said gratefully: "I am very grateful to you, Zhu La, for taking care of my daughter, but I can't hurt her."

Jura paused.

The word 'I' was not spoken.

Full of affection, turned into the action of closing the door heavily.

Through the door, Zhu La's eyes were red.

Leaning against the door, she said to herself, "You never saw me."

Is it because you are one step slower than your sister?

Gauss left.

He is a fugitive and a desperado.

Also a father.

The blood on her hands should not be touched by her daughter.
