【Good luck to you】

As soon as Tom woke up from bed, he got some bad news. His tamed snake Putt came to tell him that a man appeared in the cave where he hid things.

Really annoying.

After breakfast, when it was time for free activities, Tom strolled to the orphanage fence and ran out through the gap in the fence.

He ran to the edge of the cave, picked up a sharp stone from the ground, and walked into the cave step by step.

Then he saw the girl curled up in the cave, with a snow-white face, eyelashes longer and thicker than Amy Benson's doll, delicate and small cheeks, and red lips, just like a doll.

Tom dropped the sharp stone in his hand, walked over and picked her up, very gently. She just touched him and pushed him. Tom froze and looked at her warily, then saw her go deeper into his arms.

still alive.

His heart began to pound.

He picked up a person.

He wants to raise her.

Just like his little snake Putt, it only listens to him.

That way, those idiots won't be able to boast about being his friends.

Tom stuffed her into his clothes, her tender cheeks rubbing against his chest. When he couldn't stuff her in anymore, the clothes covered her, revealing most of her long hair. It didn't fit very low, so he thought for a moment, grabbed the clothes and made them bigger until they could cover her.

He staggered back to the orphanage carrying such a big ball of baby in his arms, and asked his little snake Put to scout ahead and bring her back without being discovered by others.

Otherwise she would definitely be snatched away.

Fortunately, the group of idiots were having fun, so he avoided them and took the girl back to his room.

"Tom?"

But before he reached his door, a voice rang out.

He turned his head sharply to look over.

"What did you bring back?"

It was Billy Stubbs, staring at the large mass on his chest.

He had been looking for his problem ever since he had let his rabbit hang from the rafters.

Disgusting idiot.

Tom put on a cold expression and asked, "How dare you meddle in my affairs?"

"If you dare to leak the secret, I will make you suffer the same fate as your rabbit."

Billy flinched.

Tom then carried the person in and after the door was closed, he took her out of her clothes and put her on the bed.

She was lying on the bed, her skin as white as snow had some red scratches, probably from inside the cave.

So fragile.

Tom took one of his clothes from the closet and put it on her. His clothes were a little big for her, and her cheeks were framed by her thick black hair, making her look more like a doll.

He cupped her cheek and kissed her, like Amy Benson would kiss her doll.

Her eyelashes trembled and she leaned forward gently.

He laughed.

He has a better doll than Amy Benson.

When Li En regained consciousness, she felt as if her whole body was run over. She opened her eyes and met a pair of black eyes.

She blinked her eyes before she could see the other person clearly.

He was a little boy, about ten years old, and very handsome.

At least there is no problem for him to debut as a child star. If possible, she would like to find his parents and introduce him to her friend who designs children's clothing.

They stared at each other for about ten seconds. When she wanted to ask who he was, he spoke first, "You are my pet."

Li En: ...What?

Boy, "Your name is... well, Poppet."

Li En: This name sounds like it was made up on the spot.

"I have a name," Li En had to speak in English, "My name is Li En."

Fortunately, he spoke in English, otherwise she wouldn't understand what he said.

"Li En," the boy repeated. Li En nodded, and then he heard him say, "It's not nice. It's called Popot."

Li En: ...You must be sick.

She sat up and found herself lying on the bed in the small room with the boy, who also looked to be about ten years old.

So she traveled through time?

"What's your name?" Li En couldn't help but look at the boy.

The boy sat up after her, staring at her with a frown, and then he said, "Call me Master."

Li En: ...He is really persistent.

After she asked several times, the boy told her that his name was Tom Riddle, this was an orphanage called Wu's Orphanage, and the director was Mrs. Cole.

And she turned out to be the child he picked up.

Still an illegal resident.

As for the time period, from his description she knew it was probably the beginning of the 20th century, when World War II was about to break out.

I actually traveled to such a difficult time.

Li En was a little worried. She looked at Tom who was stubbornly trying to press her head into his arms and asked, "Do you want us to die together?"

Rather than facing a future of wandering, she would rather die early and be reborn without suffering so much.

Anyway, there is no going back...

"Die?" Tom's pupils shrank as if frightened by the word. "No," he held her wrist, "You can't die."

It seemed like she scared him, Li En thought, and leaned into his arms as he wished, and was hugged by him.

"Are you hungry?" The satisfied Tom began to care about the condition of his little pet.

He knew very well that it was easy to die if he didn't eat enough.

Li En nodded.

Tom reached into the cupboard and pulled out a piece of brown bread and placed it in front of her. "Eat it."

Li En took the piece of black bread in front of him, which was as hard as a rock, looked at Tom, who looked like he was saying, "I've already given you food, call me master," and sighed.

Oh, I want to die even more.

After Li En ground her teeth with the black bread bit by bit, Tom hugged her, touched her hair, and began to tell her some things.

"You can't go out alone. There are dangerous wild animals outside," he threatened her. "If you want to go out, you must tell me and I will take you out."

"Don't pay attention to anyone else. Don't say a word to them because they all want to kill you."

"I am the only one who will take care of you, feed you, and clothe you."

It seems that he really treats himself as a pet, Li En thought, but he didn’t think it was a big deal.

Find an opportunity to repay this little boy's kindness and then die.

She yawned and pulled the quilt over them both.

Tom crawled under the quilt, pulled her in front of him, made her look at him, and touched her smooth long hair.

Li En met his bright dark eyes and felt that he was full of energy. She thought for a moment and said, "How about I tell you a story?"

Tom was startled. "Story?"

Li En nodded. "A story about an Austrian art student who failed the entrance exam and found a new job."

Tom frowned. "Austrian art student?"

"Yeah," Li En nodded.

Anyway, World War II is about to begin, so I should tell him about the current situation so that he won't be left in the dark and become cannon fodder in history when he grows up.

Note: The Austrian art student who failed the entrance exam is a mustache, and he talks about World War II.
