Hogwarts Emerald

In December 1977, heavy snow fell all day long and did not stop until the evening, which made the night even colder.

This is an old orphanage located in London, the capital of the United Kingdom. The welfare glory of the superior men has not spread to this orphanage. Fortunately, some kind-hearted people from society will occasionally make some donations. So the kids here can get some old clothes to keep out the cold. Fortunately, there are not many children here, otherwise there might not be enough points.

After a busy day, Ms. Nancy is preparing to say goodbye to Sister Mary, the director of the orphanage. She is here to take care of the children here on a voluntary basis today. She is not a wealthy person, so she cannot help the children here to live a better life. But kind-hearted Ms. Nancy always takes some time to take care of the children here, and this is the only thing she can do.

This winter is really hard. Fortunately, the donations we received can help the children survive this winter. Ms. Nancy said to Mary.

The slightly fat Ms. Mary crossed herself on her chest first, and then replied: I always believe that God will take care of his children. I hope that all the orphans in the hospital will have a good home, and they will all be loved by them. Take care of her parents and live in a warm house.

You are always so kind... Ms. Nancy, who was about to walk out of the yard, was attracted by a small cardboard box at the door of the yard. What is that?

Following the direction of Ms. Nancy’s finger, Sister Mary also saw the small box. Mary walked up, opened the box and looked: Oh! God, it's a baby.

Mary touched the baby tentatively. It was very cold this winter, and the little baby's body was already a little stiff. Mary quickly held her in her arms and walked quickly indoors, Help me, Nancy! She is still alive.

After hearing Mary's words, Nancy quickly picked up the cardboard box on the ground, and then followed Mary into the room again. Maybe it was because it was no longer so cold after entering the room, or maybe it was because the two ladies prayed devoutly and helped with their heart. In short, the baby has recovered.

Look. Ms. Nancy handed Mary a small piece of paper she found in the box. The handwriting on the paper was beautiful and should have been written by a woman. It read: Esmeralda Twist, born on the evening of October 7, 1977.

Poor little Esmeralda. She was abandoned by her parents when she was only two months old. Nancy said with some distress.

Ms. Mary, who was wiping the baby's body, raised her head and said to Nancy: Maybe her parents have something to hide...

Before Sister Mary could finish speaking, Nancy interrupted her, That shouldn't be done, it's... it's so cruel! She almost died!

Alas... Sister Mary let out a long sigh.

Spring goes to autumn, cold comes to summer, time always slips away inadvertently, and it is already the summer of 1989.

The orphanage is still the same orphanage, but it looks more dilapidated, and Sister Mary has become a skinny middle-aged woman. The baby was already twelve years old. Sister Mary usually called her Eda, while other children in the yard secretly called her Monster.

The sky was gloomy, which seemed a bit depressing. Ada frowned and deceived herself by closing the window, as if this could isolate the humid and hot air outside.

Ada is not tall and looks a little thin, probably because of insufficient nutrition. Her long blond hair has lost its luster, her skin is slightly pale, and her beautiful eyes are shining like emeralds. Bright.

He was wearing a baggy old shirt, a pair of baggy old jeans that had been washed white, and a pair of slippers. Even so, anyone who looked at Ada would think she was a beautiful girl.

The weather in the Great Empire is really terrible! Ada complained to herself, then threw herself on the bed, imageless. Ada is a time traveler who becomes a new Ada after the soul of the original Ada dissipates. As for the reason why the soul of the original owner Ada disappeared because the child had no mother, it is a long story.

After the original owner was picked up by Sister Mary, she lived in an orphanage like other children in the orphanage. But the difference is that the original owner Ada was adopted twice, but some strange things always happened around Ada, which frightened the family who adopted her, so they all made the same decision - Send Aida back to the orphanage again.

Abandoned since birth and coupled with these two abandonment incidents, the original owner Ada did not know what was happening around her, but she hated herself more and more and hated this ability at the same time.

She began to change. She who used to be well-behaved and sensible began to become perverse and violent, and often had conflicts with the children in the orphanage.

Until Ada was ten years old, she was surrounded and harassed by some local gangsters when she went out one night. The ability that she had always hated and suppressed exploded to a huge extent when her life was threatened. A startling energy protected her.

Ada was saved. She returned to the orphanage like a zombie and fell unconscious on the bed. It was at this time that the time traveler took over from her and became the new Esmeralda Drizzt.

In the next three days, this body was like a machine on an assembly line, repeating what a normal person should do every day, maintaining the normal operation of the body. It was also during these three days that the traveler generally accepted the original owner Ada. The memory is like watching a first-person movie, all kinds of setbacks and misfortunes run through a short ten years of life.

After receiving the memory and officially taking control of this body, Ada still couldn't believe it until this moment. I am a young man in the 21st century, an ordinary person who has been in bed for a long time but still failed to resist the call of the disease. Now I unexpectedly came to the British Isles in the 1980s and became a girl in an orphanage!

Resurrection from the dead, traveling through time and becoming another person, with a new life, this is the magic of fate, it is the skirt of the goddess of fate that is gently lifted!

Ada was not used to a strange body and living in a strange place. It's not that I haven't thought about going back, it's just that the timeline doesn't match up at all. Her original body has died. What if Ada appears in her eternal destination in life, that small box, after she returns? And Ada has no way to go back, so she can’t die again, right? Ada didn't want to do this kind of thing that required a lot of effort and was uncertain.

So be it, take it as it comes. This was all he could do to comfort himself.

After the initial discomfort, Ada became familiar with the life in the orphanage and started a new life. Although she was poor, she was fortunately not suffering from illness. As for the children in the orphanage, these children were not very friendly to Ada. Although the original owner had fought with them, she was a girl after all, so she lost more than she won. So this group of naughty kids will show their strength by bullying this monster.

After Ada traveled through time and took the initiative to teach the children who took the lead twice, they stopped and no longer dared to cause trouble for Ada, and Ada had no intention of continuing to argue with these children. My future is not in this orphanage.

Ada has more important things to do. There are only two ways for a poor man born in an orphanage to change his life. One is written in the code and is not mentioned; the other is to go to school and study hard.

Fortunately, Ada's mind was very useful in this life. Although she didn't have a photographic memory, she was still someone else's child. Ada would also do some odd jobs in her spare time to earn some money to save. After all, the orphanage was too poor.

Ada didn't know what the ability that the original owner had always hated was, but it didn't prevent Ada from tentatively touching and using it. Ada feels that this is a trump card for her to settle down. After all, this power really protected her at critical moments.

In this way, Ada spent an orderly two years in the orphanage.

beep! beep! beep!

The strange noise coming from the window attracted Ada's attention. Ada looked up and saw that it was a gray owl pecking at the window, as if imitating the human action of knocking on the door.

Owls are not uncommon in this country, at least Ada can often see them, but its anthropomorphic movements still make Ada find it interesting. Ada jumped out of bed and opened the window to let in the owl.

This gray owl flew in from the window, circled twice in the small room, and then landed firmly on the desk. It proudly stretched out its leg towards Ada, with a letter tied to it. Ada first reached out and untied the letter from the owl's leg, then broke the remaining bread into crumbs and placed it in front of it.

After receiving the reward of bread crumbs, the gray owl put down his arrogance and said: Arrogant? what is that? Can it be eaten as a meal? An owl will never be a slave unless he has food and shelter!

Ignoring the owl that had lost its dignity, Ada looked at the letter in silence. The envelope was made of heavy parchment, addressed in emerald green ink, and had no stamps on it.

Ada turned the envelope over. There was a wax seal, a shield's crest, and a capital H surrounded by a lion, an eagle, a badger, and a snake. Ada's hands suddenly trembled. These four animals and this crest felt familiar.

Ada pulled out the letter inside and read it:

Ada fell down on the bed and muttered to herself: This will kill people...

Tangyuan writes the name of the traveler as Esmeralda or Ada, and uses he in the third person; writes the original owner as Esmeralda or Ada, and uses she in the third person.
