Lynn is watering his garden, and the little girl from the neighbor's house is passing by his door carrying a schoolbag.
"Hey."
Lynn looked up and saw the girl stopping in front of his house calling him through the fence, so he put down the kettle and walked over.
"It's not very polite for you to do this. If you don't know my name, you can say to me, instead of hello."
The girl pouted, she seemed to be unconvinced with Lynn's words, because she obviously looked about the same age as her.
But she didn't delve into this issue, but took a look at her yard, and then carefully took out a packet of dried fish from her schoolbag.
She pursed her lips and handed the dried fish to Lynn.
Lynn did not reach out for the first time, but looked at her and raised an eyebrow
"Why, do you want to use this bag of dried fish to bribe me to let me play with you? If that is the case, then you gave it the wrong way. I like sweets, such as sweets, rather than salted fish."
The girl kicked the fence of Lin En's house and made a face at him at the same time.
"I don't want you to play with me. This package of dried fish is not for you. It is for the stray cats that wander around every day. My mother forbids me to feed them, saying that they are full of viruses and bacteria.
But in fact, I really want to raise a cat. My father said that if I can keep my current grades, I will buy me a clean cat when I grow up.
But those stray cats are too pitiful. They are all cats, but they run around hungry every day. This is not fair.
Yesterday I saw that you took some broken biscuits to feed them, so today I also bought some dried fish with my pocket money. I want you to take care of them for me. "
This consciousness is too high...
Lynn groaned silently in his heart.
It can be seen that the girl is actually a talkative, she can't stop when she opens her mouth, but she has been a little arrogant before.
Lynn, who guessed the girl wrongly, didn't feel embarrassed, anyway, his face was thick enough.
He took the package of dried fish from the other party, "Well, I happen to have nothing to do every day, so I can take care of them for you."
After finishing speaking, he picked a lily from his yard and handed it to the girl.
"This will be my thank you gift for them."
The girl didn't show her timidity, she took the lily flower from Lynn's hand generously, and said with a grin.
"My name is Hermione Granger, how about you?"
"Lynn Bellock, it's not long since I moved here, so nice to meet you."
Lynn always felt that the girl's name was familiar, but he didn't think about it.
After reported their names to each other, the relationship between the two parties naturally increased a lot. Hermione leaned on the fence of Lynn's house and tiptoed lightly, peering into his house.
"Are you living alone?"
Lynn took off his gloves and was very interested in chatting with Hermione. He had just moved to London not long after, plus the summer vacation was coming soon, so he didn't go to school. Now he has a lot of free time.
"Yes, I am the only one living here for the time being."
Hermione's eyes widened: "Where are your parents? Are they assured that you live here alone?"
"They died when I was very young. I live with my adoptive father, but he doesn't usually come back." The expression on Lynn's face was calm.
But Hermione apologized with a sad look: "I'm sorry, I don't know about you."
Lynn waved his hand indifferently: "It doesn't matter, it was from when I was very young, and my life is actually pretty good now."
"What about you?" Lynn broke the subject, by the way, tapping on the situation of his neighbor's house, "What do you do in your house?"
Hermione smiled and showed her teeth, very white.
"My parents are both dentists. If you have a toothache in the future, you can go to them."
Dentist, that is a proper high-paying job in the UK, a veritable middle class.
Moreover, British people attach great importance to oral health problems, and highly skilled dentists generally have a wide network of contacts.
This neighbor can communicate more.
While I am still young now, I can still be cheeky and sell cute, and make a good relationship, it will always help in the future.
So, Lynn gave an invitation with a bright smile.
"Would you like to come to my house and sit for a while? I cooked some mung bean soup at noon. In the summer, I can drink it to cool down my thirst."
Hermione looked a little excited, but she glanced at her home again, and finally shook her head.
"Thank you, but I have been delayed for a long time. Mom will be anxious if I go home or not."
"Then next time." Lynn didn't try to stay, "I will help take care of those stray cats."
Hermione thinks that her new neighbor is a great person, and she will have a new friend in the future.
"Goodbye, Lynn."
She waved to Lynn happily, her long fluffy hair was like a ball of cotton candy, and she trot back to her home.
The appearance of Hermione was just an episode for Lynn.
He put on his gloves again, humming a little song, and continued to take care of the blooming flowers in the garden.
Lynn is a traverser.
In his previous life, he was a people's teacher who had just been working for less than two years. As a result, he accidentally fell into the river while riding a tram on the way to work. He was drowned because he couldn't swim.
When regained consciousness again, he became an orphan who had just lost his parents in a British orphanage called Startingpoint.
I really don’t know if this is a lucky or unfortunate thing.
But the good news is that his two parents, who died before they met, left him a huge inheritance. As long as he becomes an adult, he can inherit it, and then he is looking for a wife. Happy life.
But capitalist welfare institutions are not really purely charitable. There are a lot of dirty things inside. UU reading adds a group of problem children, although they are pitiful, they are all difficult masters.
So when Lynn was eleven years old, he secretly used some tricks to find himself a cheap adoptive father, moved out of the orphanage, and returned to the home where his parents lived before his death.
The current life is temporarily settled down, but Lynn has not thought about the future plan, nor does he intend to think about it.
The plan cannot keep up with the changes.
It will be a long time in the future. The more plans he makes now, the more he will regret in the future that he is completely wasting time.
Since God arranged for him to be reborn in England in the second half of the twentieth century, let’s honestly talk about establishing a foothold in this country first.
So, now the 11-year-old Lynn lives in the body of the 25-year-old soul and lives a 70-year-old life.
He is also very helpless, but in this era, entertainment is really scarce. He really doesn't know what to do except raising flowers, weeding, and feeding cats.
After finishing the home garden, Lynn put down the tools in his hand, took off his gloves, and stretched out towards the sunset in the sky.
The air in London is very poor. Although efforts have been made to control it, the sky is sometimes grayish.
Lin En squinted his eyes, and faintly he saw a small black spot flying towards him on the horizon.
When the black spot approached, he could see that it turned out to be an owl.
This kind of bird is not uncommon in the UK, so Lynn didn't care much. Instead, he mentioned the dried fish sent by the little girl named Hermione, locked the gate of the yard and prepared to go out to feed the cat.
It's just that he didn't notice that the owl that flew over his head dropped a thick letter where he stood before.
then stood on the roof of his house and looked at his distant back, tilting his head in confusion.
