When Theodore woke up, the rain hadn't stopped, and the heavy robes stuck to him. He got up from the grass and looked back at the empty owl house.

Who just attacked him?Where did Miranda and Annie go?

Doubtful, he went straight to the castle hall to look for Miranda, regardless of how soaked he was.Miranda is with Freddie Greene, who is comforting her.

"What happened?" Theodore asked breathlessly, rain dripping from his hair onto the floor.

"Not...you are..." Grian looked at him suspiciously, his face was pale, and he didn't dare to ask more questions.Then cast him a Drying Charm out of kindness.

"My guess was wrong, sorry, Nott." Miranda choked up.

Theodore nodded calmly, actually suppressing his anger at taking such a risk that Voldemort would even find himself eyeing Anne Panik!In the end it turned out to be like this!

He also lied to Annie, even though the Felicia was indeed ready, how should he give it to her now!

Miranda's head was also in a mess. She saw the ring on Tom Riddle's hand, which proved his idea of ​​beating a Horcrux!Is this behind Annie's support... or something else...

----------

On the way back to the dormitory from the owl house, Anne held the diary, thinking of the conversation between Miranda and Tom, she became irritable.

After returning to the dormitory, the two of them relaxed their vigilance.

"So where have you been these days, Tom?" Annie poured him a glass of water.

"Kent County, I found my fragments there." Riddle took out the locket and put it on Annie's neck. "So far everything is going well, and we will be able to leave here soon."

"Oh...is that so?" Annie said blankly, "What kind of person was I before?"

"Why are you asking this question again?" Tom chuckled, "I said, you don't have to care about the previous things."

"Yeah, I don't need to care."

Tom Riddle is always hiding her... If Anne wants to know the answer, she has to find it herself.And the moment had to be picked—the moment when Tom Riddle's vigilance was at its lowest.

The Rebirth Mantra is a magical spell that can be used not only on oneself, but also on others.

After several days of running around, Tom gradually felt tired like a human because of the fusion of the Horcrux.He rested on the chair on his back, his whole body was like a perfect work of art.

Annie just looked at Tom quietly, perhaps from the perspective of Tom's memory, she could see her past self and understand Panik's past better.

"Sorry...Tom, it's not that I don't believe you..."

She took out her wand and said the spell softly.

On the contrary, she took Tom Riddle too seriously. When she was confused about the world like a baby, it was Riddle who told her everything, spent a good time with her, and made her have a relationship with him. His dependence.

Like the first ray of wind at the beginning of chaos, clearing away the mist in front of you.

She began to learn Tom's way of doing things slowly. She didn't really care about the conflicts between Voldemort and Dumbledore. For her, those were just things of the past.

Despite the coldness all over his body, Riddle is a perfect lover, but he is collecting soul fragments step by step to get rid of Voldemort's control...

It all seems to be going in a good direction.

Anne questioned herself, why should all this be made clear?

It is very difficult to walk through Tom Riddle's memory. His memory is quite chaotic. The memory from the recent past... and the memory from 50 years ago... and a considerable part of the memory is Tom Riddle Never mentioned it.

It can be roughly divided into his memories before the age of 16...the memories from after the age of 16 to 1992, and some after 92 years.

The connection of the spell suddenly became unstable, and Annie was randomly thrown into a time and space.She got up slowly, and it was pitch black in front of her eyes. Occasionally, a yellowish light radiated from a few windows and reflected on the snow.This is an old neighborhood in London.

There were snowflakes in the sky, and the weather was frighteningly cold, like December.Anne looked at the window on the side of the road, and the calendar in the window read...

1926 12 Month 31 Day.

"Hey... need help?"

A passerby wearing a scarf asked Annie, and Annie shook her head.

"Hmm... well then, good luck. Don't be like me, I seem to be a little lost." The passerby pulled up the scarf, and she had long reddish-brown hair like Annie.

The Rebirth Curse is very different from Legilimency, you can do anything that has substantial changes in the other person's memory, and of course, the damage you receive in the memory is all real.

Annie didn't know how she was in this era, but before she had time to think, a pregnant woman with a big belly grabbed her hand.

The woman gasped, "Help me...please help me..."

Beads of sweat were all over the woman's forehead, and Annie also became flustered, who knew she would be involved in such a thing?She supported the woman and knocked on the door of the opposite house.

"Hello...Excuse me..."

Before he could finish speaking, the door closed with a bang.There were voices of discussion inside the door.

"Ah...it hurts..." The woman tightly grabbed a piece of fabric on the skirt.

"Persevere!" Annie knocked on the doors of several houses, but all of them returned in vain. She looked towards a place similar to a Muggle welfare institution, and helped the woman walk there with difficulty.

The door was opened by a drunken woman who smelled of gin as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Who are you...? We don't take refugees here... these days... damn war."

"Please let her stay for a while! She seems to be giving birth!" Regardless of the woman's dissuasion, Anne helped the pregnant woman into the hall.

She gave birth on a thick blanket next to a dying fire.Anne had no experience delivering babies either, but the drinking women didn't help.

"Can I have some hot water?"

"There it is." She pointed to the iron kettle on the fireplace.

The childbirth was not as grand as Annie had imagined, the woman was just gasping for breath, she couldn't cry out because of the pain.Anne helped her, and her own wand rolled to the ground, but she put it away quickly.

After three hours, the woman successfully gave birth to a boy.Although the drinking woman didn't help, she still verbally instructed Anne on what to do.Then a young girl Martha came to help,

"Oh... She was born in three hours... Then she broke her waters at least a few hours ago and has been holding back until now. Why doesn't this baby cry?" Martha said while holding the dark-haired baby, who was wide open. Round eyes, very quiet.

"I'll go and wipe him off, he's covered in blood." Martha said, "Miss, take care of this lady. Don't blame Mrs. Cole, she's exhausted running the Wu's Orphanage."

Annie nodded. Mrs. Cole was already drunk, but when she looked down, the woman's blood was still flowing.

"You! You need to stop the bleeding!" Annie looked around, but there was no fabric, so she could only wipe it with the woman's skirt. Annie grabbed a corner, and there were two letters embroidered on it - MG.

Same letters embroidered on the dress found at Gaunt's old house!

"You are... a wizard... right?" the woman said with difficulty, "I saw your wand..."

"Don't talk yet, I'll give you a healing spell!"

"No! Please...don't do this." The woman said with tears in her eyes. "He shouldn't have come to this world. I insisted on bringing him here... This is my punishment."

"But you are his mother! You must live to take care of him!" Annie was anxious, but the woman in front of her grabbed her hand with all her strength.

"Please...let me rest...I...my name is...Merope...Gon...oh no...Riddle. My boy, he should be called Tom just like his dad, middle name...after his grandpa ...Marvolo."

Tom... Riddle... Anne was shocked, and this was Tom's mother... The baby just now was Tom Riddle!

"Why did you give up your life so easily? You are a wizard! You are capable of saving yourself!"

"I...my birth shamed my father...Little Tom...he...he was born with a love potion...Merlin, who can save him? When I see him, I think of that cruel man ...I want to raise him, but I want to strangle him to death." Merope choked on his sobs.

"Please let me die peacefully. I cannot raise this child, or one day I will not be able to bear the fate of being abandoned all my life and hurt this child."

Anne didn't speak, Merope was lying in her arms, the blanket was stained red with blood, and her body temperature gradually dropped.

Tom Riddle...was a child abandoned by his mother.

Annie calculated the time, it was time to go to the next time point.

She put the cleaned little Tom next to Merope. Merope was lying on her side, tears flowing sideways across her face. Little Tom didn't cry, and looked directly at his dying mother.

----------

Anne strode out and hid in an alley. What she had just experienced made her heart throb. If Tom Riddle had been loved by his mother since he was a child, what would have happened?

She didn't have time to think so much, taking advantage of the limited time, she had to go to the next location.

After chanting the spell, she came to this alley again. This time it was also a cold winter, but there was no snow.

What year is this again... Annie looked at the sunset and walked towards the Wu's Orphanage, which she just came out of.

Mrs. Cole was visibly older, and her belly was gradually becoming fat from long-term drinking.

According to what Tom said, she and he grew up together in the orphanage, so she must have been in this place before.

"Oh...you are..." She squinted her eyes, apparently unable to remember where she had seen Annie.

"Hi, I'm looking for someone. Have you ever seen... a child who looks like me?" Annie said expectantly. "Blue-green eyes, red-brown hair."

"I don't know what you're talking about...but...you can take a look. There's no need to adopt a child who looks like you, right?" Mrs. Cole thought that the young lady in front of her was here to adopt a child, and put the orphanage Every child in the family called over.

Each child stood nervously, trying to bring out the best in themselves.

Annie looked over, but did not find any children similar to herself.But she met Tom Riddle as a child.

Things like time travel are sometimes very strange. One second, she was still delivering little Tom, and the next second, little Tom was already five or six years old.

She walked up to Tom Riddle, smiling, and little Tom looked very unpleasant with a little old man's face.

"I don't like you," said little Tom to Anne, and Mrs. Cole gave Tom a look.

"It's okay, I think you have a lot of personality, I want to ask... Do you know any friends in this orphanage? Or is there a child named Annie who is very similar to me!"

"Tom has no friends! He's a nuisance!" Billy Stubbs yelled, and the other kids joined him in insulting him.

"He stole my stuff!"

"He also kills mice! Disgusting!"

"That's enough!" Madam Cole stopped them loudly, obviously she wanted Anne to take any child smoothly... even Tom Riddle.

"I never make friends, it's not worth it," said Tom. "Give me a bar of chocolate and you'll know what you want to know."

As expected of Tom... He knew how to make a deal at a young age... Annie resisted the idea of ​​going up and poking his brains out, and took out the Christmas chocolates from her pocket.

"I don't know, there is no such person." Tom said slyly, he carefully looked at the wrapping paper of the chocolate, and looked at Annie suspiciously.

There is something wrong with the production date of this chocolate... 1996... how is that possible!This woman must be a liar.

Annie was a little surprised, how could there be no such child?Tom wouldn't lie to her.

"Maybe I came too early..." Anne said, saying goodbye to Mrs. Cole, thinking about the time when Tom Riddle would wake up, at which point she had to go back.

It seems that next time she will have to stay in this time period for a few more years.

Annie used up the "Rebirth Curse" on Tom, and she looked at Riddle who was resting, and she couldn't help feeling pity in her heart.

His eyelids trembled, as if he was experiencing a bad dream.Annie patted him on the back lightly, she still wanted to know more, but the pity in her heart made her want to give Riddle more care when she was a child.

May all this be not self-indulgent.

------------

A new day has begun again, and with Tom's company, Anne feels that she doesn't have to live in such trepidation anymore. It's actually pretty good to play with her "friends" Millicent and Peggy occasionally.

"I bought Petrov a new quill, and I'm going to give it to him as a Valentine's Day gift!" Millicent said briskly, "I'll tell you a secret, Petrov actually hates Muggles...but that's There are reasons."

"What's the problem?" Peggy asked.

"Petrov was caught by a very bad Muggle scientist when he was a child, and he was almost dissected for research! It's crazy!"

"That kind of Muggle is the lunatic among Muggles." Peggy shook her head, "Munda is so unlucky. That's right! I bought Colin a new SLR camera as a Valentine's Day gift!"

"Wow, what a big deal, Miss Zhu. What has our Miss Panick prepared?" Millicent looked at Annie with an "evil" smile.

"Huh? I've never seen this locket... which boy gave it to you?" Peggy asked, pointing to the locket on Annie's neck.

"Open it and see if you don't know!"

Annie opened the locket. The soul fragments on the locket had already been fused by Tom Riddle, and the slogan of Slytherin was engraved inside.

"Looks like nothing..." Anne said.

But speaking of "Valentines"...she thinks she should really get one for Tom, but something unique!

After the day's class was over, she searched through boxes and chests for a long time, and found a lot of things...a blue-green crystal hairpin...a scarlet bracelet...and a damaged music box.

Annie looked at these things for a long time, this is "her" past.
