[HP]You're my cake

12,

Harry was awakened by the sound of someone waking up in the morning. He turned over sleepily, and saw Tom was about to leave the bed. The boy reached out and grabbed the hem of the man's clothes, and said with a psychedelic and lazy smile: "Merry Christmas , Mr. Riddle..."

After finishing speaking, he immediately fell back on the bed and fell asleep for a second

Tom sighed almost inaudibly after looking down at the back of the boy's head, and opened the boy's fingers

It was an hour before Harry woke up again, lying in bed thinking about his little plan

After what happened last night, he decided in his heart to earn money by working part-time to buy a birthday cake for Tom

Although the actions were not motivated by noble original intentions at all, to a considerable extent it is to satisfy one's own appetite

But --- Harry opened his eyes

After making a decision, we must decisively implement our own ideas

You have to start acting cleanly, you have to act quickly

Harry rubbed the quilt that was still warm, then left the warm shelter without hesitation, and ran to wash in three steps at a time

The dessert shop he was standing in front of was the one he found after sneaking out of the basement on the eve of Christmas Eve. The plaque had a picture of a flaming bird on the dessert shop. Harry, who knew he didn't have much time, silently encouraged himself in his heart, holding his hands tightly. After fisting the door, he pushed the door in without hesitation -------- if the public noticed it, they might complain about his background, which was burning

"jingle---------"

The old store manager with a long gray beard raised his head buried in the list in his hand, "Welcome------"

Blue eyes behind half-moon lenses curved up after seeing who was coming

"Good morning, my child, how can I help you?"

Knowing well that he is not a relative of the store manager, Harry couldn't help blushing, but the content of the question was clearly followed by the other party's words

"Hello, are you hiring here?"

Without waiting for the old store manager to speak again, Harry said again: "I can clean and wash dishes... Even if there is something I don't understand, I can learn it right away!"

"Child -----------" projected into the blue eyes of the old store manager was a thin and thin man wearing an ill-fitting coat, a thick scarf around his neck, and a pair of slightly larger shoes. Boy "With all due respect, are you homeless?"

"If you mean a place to live, I have a place to live." Harry's heart was beating like a drum. "I mean... I can do anything, if I can get even the smallest and cheapest cake on the 31st..."

Harry bent deeply and lowered his head, "Please!"

Seeing Harry like this, the old store manager showed a helpless and happy smile

In fact, this is not a very lively shop, and even the number of visitors has only increased slightly in the past two days----Naturally, there is no special need for an extra handyman

However, looking at the boy's messy hair and emerald green eyes, he remembered for a long time that when he was still a university professor teaching and solving puzzles, there were two students he loved.

"Is it your birthday, kid?" he asked

"Huh? Ah, no, it's not my birthday, it's a ----- friend's birthday," the boy replied

"That's it..." With a loving and kind smile, the old store manager said, "It's a very wonderful thing to be able to work hard for someone's birthday. My child, you must like him very much, right?"

A good boy, he nodded

Huh?

There was a moment of bewilderment and doubt on the boy's face, and finally he hesitated and replied:

"probably."

Tom returned to the residence in the evening and just opened the door when he heard the sound of things being overturned behind the sundry shelf. The boy popped out from behind the shelf with his bird's nest-like head, "Mr. Riddle, welcome back!"

a guilty conscience

very good

Let's see what this restless little mouse does again

"Mr. Riddle, your eyes are so scary... I didn't cause trouble today..."

So Tom smiled frighteningly with a black face

"Well I forgot to turn off the tap today!"

Although it is a small shop with a small customer flow, for Harry, a handyman who has just taken office, it will be a bit hectic at the beginning when he comes into contact with new things. However, with the guidance of the old store manager, he is really as he wants. As Yan Yan said, he quickly mastered the work including entertaining guests + packaging cartons, and cleaning up when preparing to close is not a problem

The old store manager said that he really has eyes and talents, hehe

After making an appointment to go back to work tomorrow, Harry expressed his thanks to the old store manager for his one-day care and said goodbye, then hurried towards his residence. He was bullied hard, but it still didn't hurt his good mood at that time

------Oh, it's better to say that I'm completely used to that kind of bullying.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the boy was rushing back and thinking, "Then tomorrow, the next day, and the next day... Anyway, there are still a few days------"

There are days left before I can run with these legs

Still have days to work with these hands

The brain that thinks about this is still functioning

-------Um

Harry grinned

But soon, he stopped laughing

In the street full of red light, the boy ran forward, but a pair of hands stopped him, dragging him into the shadow of the alley

"Harry, long time no see."

An anxious voice rings in my ears

"Do you still have the tranquilizer?"

With astonishment and panic, Harry's eyes widened

"Shel..."

After reacting, Harry immediately broke free from the grasped arm and turned to confront the uninvited guest

Called Syre, the boy who looked to be about the same age as Harry had a distressed and flustered expression on his face. He was neat and tidy but just made people feel embarrassed for no reason.

"Harry! Help me! I've run out of sedatives!"

-------this person

-------This person is my former companion

是 的

The boy was one of Harry's companions in the convoy that transported the C-rank magician to the disposal site

When I ran away, I thought I would never meet him again

I didn't expect to appear in front of me with such a terrible request today.

Harry pursed his lips and looked away

He only has 5 sedatives left

And Riddle's birthday happens to be 5 days later

The cake he is looking forward to and wants to share with is also in the future 5 days later

-----Yes, you still have the sedative

----- but don't tell him

Harry repeated these two sentences in his mind

"...Well, I have."

-----Don't give it to him, don't give it to him, don't give it to him

“……………………………………………………………………………………………………”

"...I'll break up with you, Syre."

In the end, the boy still smiled wryly and said:

It is impossible for Harry to refuse to save his comrades who have gone through hardships in the past

It is because we have experienced the same pain that we cannot turn a blind eye to the fears and longings that we also feel

-------it's a pity. Harry thought

I don't know why I feel sorry

"Syre, I'm sorry, I don't have a tranquilizer on me right now, but you wait here for me, I'll bring it to you right away..."

This is not a lie, because Harry was worried that he might lose the life-saving medicine if he was too busy at work, so he found a safer corner in the basement to hide the medicine last night

Harry turned around and wanted to go back to the street, but before taking two steps, he was knocked down hard to the ground

"-----------------?!"

"Harry... you're lying to me, aren't you..."

Syre's icy voice came from overhead, and Harry's aching but still awake head rang the alarm.

"pavilion……"

"You want to keep me here and attract people to catch me, right..." The other party's tone suddenly became stern, "The tranquilizer is on you, right!"

"This guy is too, so is that guy, and you are too...a selfish guy who only thinks about himself...but it doesn't matter, I will find out, all your tranquilizers, I will find out, just like those guys."

"...wait a minute..." After receiving all the information from Syre's above words, Harry suddenly remembered something

"You snatched all the tranquilizers from other people?"

On that day, although the escorts were inferior products that were about to be destroyed, for some reason, and whether it was an instruction from the "research institute", there was still a small amount of sedative in Harry's transport vehicle, and then it was almost Like a conspiracy, the sudden explosion dragged the convoy into chaos. Harry and his party, who were closest to the center of the chaos, were able to escape with all the tranquilizers in the car. Even though they were scattered by the chasing soldiers, but here They still did a good job of distributing the drugs fairly

It happened to be a row of sedatives per person, 9 pills, an average of 11 days

The reason why Harry had an extra row and 11 extra days of life was because Hermione, who was traveling with him, was fatally injured in the ensuing pursuit and couldn't hold on anymore, so he entrusted the tranquilizer and his own time to Harry's hands. superior

Harry, you might make it to New Years

If only I could see the fireworks...

But whatever it is... 22 days, including mine... Please, feel happy... If you can even feel happy, it's really, really good...

------- So he's not just living for himself, he's living for Hermione's

I promised Hermione that I would be happy and happy during these 22 days... By the way, how could I not be happy, although that person, Riddle, always looked expressionless, but when he returned to that place, sitting In that position, my heartbeat is no longer the only one left in the world

Mr. Riddle…………

For that day and that day, for Hermione, for that cake

Forgive me, please forgive me for being selfish

"Syl... have you snatched other people's sedatives..." Harry said "then - I can't give you my sedatives!"

Harry made a sudden attack, endured the headache and dizziness, quickly got up and kicked hard in the back, and Syre, who was distracted by the metallic sound above his head, was hit hard in the lower abdomen, and Harry used the counterforce to attack at the same time. Rolling to the side, they distanced themselves from him, the metal platform above them was bent by Harry's magic, and several flower pots fell down to draw a boundary between the two of them.

Syre stood up clutching his stomach, looked at Harry who was already at a safe distance from him, and suddenly said, "Ron is dead."

Harry's movements stiffened.

"You and Ron are good friends, right? Do you know how he died——"

After everyone dispersed that day, Syer met Ron by accident, and then the two simply decided to take care of each other and spend the 11 days with each other

Syre felt a burst of relief and was very happy. Although it was not as good as Harry and Ron's friendship, the two of them were quite good partners. There was a familiar friend who faced the completely unfamiliar "research" with him. The outside world is not as scary as being alone

However, that relaxation didn't even last for two days before something happened that almost caused Syre to have a nervous breakdown.

Ron is dead, killed

A magician who was not very familiar with them approached them and expressed his wish to travel with them as a partner. Neither of them was considered too thoughtful. Facing the magician who had the same tragic experience as his companion, they finally softened their hearts. They accepted him. What they didn't expect was that the magician was good at "hypnosis" magic, and the tranquilizer was taken away from the two people who had become enlightened.

After waking up, Syre immediately used his only "search" ability to find the whereabouts of the magician, and then Ron had a dispute with the other party-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------" As a result, Ron lost his mind for a moment because of the opponent's magic effect, and was "ejected" by the opponent

After the other party fled, Syre fell to the ground alone, looking at Ron's body that had melted into a pool of rotten flesh with a pale and unbelievable expression.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses after receiving such a major blow, vomiting and remembering that he no longer had any tranquilizers on him, he could only search for other companions nearby and seek help from them, but what he waited for Yes, it was the companion's magic that drew passing patrolmen to his side

What he waited for was the betrayal of his companions

After finally escaping, he suddenly came to his senses

No one will help him, everyone will no longer care about other people except themselves

No one wants to die, he cried, everyone wants to live, even if only for a few days

After wiping away his tears, he searches for the location of the companion who betrayed his past

that man is an idiot, he thought

Instead of carrying the most important medicine with you, you hide it where even Syre can find it

What a fool, he thought

After pinching the person with trembling fingers, no, it was his own sedative and swallowing it

After that day, Syre continued to grab the ones he ate and put away the ones that others snatched, and he couldn't sleep peacefully every day.

"That's the story."

Syre said the closing words calmly, and Harry looked at him with a shudder

------He might be crazy

"Hey." Suddenly, Syre laughed out loud, his eyes were hollow like dead fish, he stared at Harry, "Can you kill me?"

"Varied,-------"

The former approached him, and Harry felt like he was frozen in place, unable to move

"You can't, you dare not kill me, do you?"

When Harry was surrounded by this strange and strange atmosphere, and his whole body was frozen, Syre had already stepped on the fragments of the flower plate and stepped on the scattered soil, and was about to come to Harry

"Then you are not my opponent --------"

Harry thawed in an instant, and wanted to turn around and flee, but was crushed to the ground by Syre as if vulnerable

Syre stopped his struggle hard and turned him over and tore his scarf away: "Don't move!"

Harry stopped, he knew that the other party had his life in his hands

"Come on Harry, give me the sedative or I'll 'eject' you---"

"Syre --------!"
