The door of the bar was pushed open again, and a young man wearing a slim gown walked in.
Aberforth just took one look and knew that the clothes on this man must be worth a lot of money.
Although he had never eaten pork, Aberforth had actually seen pigs running away.
This outfit is much better than Lucius who came to him to plead for mercy.
And that person's appearance is also quite outstanding. The most eye-catching thing is the rose-red hair. It's not like the fiery red of the Wesley family, but a delicate red, like the color of a red rose waiting to bloom.
There was a faint smile on the young man's face, looking elegant and gentle.
He looked at the bar in front of him with curious eyes. The decoration of the Pig's Head Bar is simple, even a little shabby, but in this man's eyes, there is no trace of disgust. Instead, it was with a hint of appreciation.
"Places with historical charm are different."
He said with some emotion.
Aberforth stared at him for a moment, and then asked: "If you are looking for someone, they are on the second floor."
After saying that, Aberforth ignored the person in front of him and wiped the cup on his own.
However, from his suspicious eyes, it could still be seen that his mood was definitely not as calm as he said.
The man didn't pay attention to Aberforth's attitude and said enthusiastically: "Thank you, boss."
After saying that, he walked towards the stairs to the second floor.
Behind him, Aberforth looked at the logo on his sleeves, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Wait until the man's figure disappears from sight. Aberforth asked himself in confusion: "The Ross family? How could they be related to Luke Gaunt?"
The cloth in my hand was wiped on the inside and outside of the cup again and again, from dirty to clean, until it was extremely clean. Aberforth finally stopped. A line of words first appeared on the rag.
"Luke meets the Rose family, and their relationship may be very close."
Then, Aberforth threw the rag in his hand upwards, and in the blink of an eye, the rag turned into an owl with black, white and gray colors unevenly distributed on its body.
The owl flapped its wings and flew out of the window opened remotely by Aberforth. You can still see this owl flying in the direction of Hogwarts Castle from a distance.
Although Aberforth has always been secretive. But his strength is still quite good. Leaving aside perverts like Dumbledore, his strength can be considered to be in the upper reaches.
It's still possible to do the not-so-simple transformation technique.
However, his doubts were still not resolved. Why did the Rose family suddenly come to meet Luke?
Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows...
If you think about it this way, it is indeed possible.
Upstairs, Luke, who was sipping rice wine and beer, couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he heard the footsteps coming from his ears.
When that flash of rose-red hair appeared, Luke took a deep breath.
The young man walked up to the second floor and saw Luke sitting on a chair with a solemn expression, like a little adult. ….
The slight smile on his face disappeared little by little. His face did not become ugly, but he became very sentimental.
[It has been running stably for many years. It is comparable to the old version of the book chasing tool and is used by all old bookworms.
Sri Lanka.
The Ross family in France is an ancient and low-key family. It is rarely seen in the French wizarding world, but it is among the legends of the French wizarding world. This family is rich in handsome men and beautiful women. And it has a special magic inheritance.
But these are just legends, especially in recent years. It is said that after the Ross family changed its head, there was almost no news. If Rose Manor hadn't put up top-quality flowers and perfumes for auction every month, I'm afraid everyone would have doubted whether the Rose family was extinct due to some accident.
Similarly, Luke has not received any information except receiving a postcard from his grandfather every year during these years. But grandpa said many times in the postcard that if there was really a need, then tell him and he would have someone help Luke.
So, today's episode happened.
"Are you, Uncle William?"
Luke looked at the young man in front of him and asked with a slightly complicated expression.
You must know that the young man in front of him and the old man who does not know where he is are the only two people in the world who have a blood connection with him.
William Ross's eyes lit up when he heard Luke call his name: "Sister, have you ever mentioned me?"
His eyes were full of hope, hoping to get a positive answer from Luke.
But it's a pity...
"I'm sorry, my mother never told me anything about the Ross family. She just told me before leaving that she would let grandpa keep in touch with me."
Luke is not averse to deception. But he didn't want to lie to the people around him. Even if it's a white lie. Even if you know that no one wants to hear the hurtful truth.
William Ross's eyes darkened a bit, he smiled bitterly, and he regained his gentle expression. Then he walked in the direction of Luke.
Sitting on the chair, William Ross looked at Luke's face, observing his facial features bit by bit, but there was a sense of nostalgia in his gentle eyes. Although Jean-Luc felt a little awkward, he was not repelled after all.
"Yes, I am William Ross. Keisha Ross's brother and your uncle."
As soon as these words came out, even someone with Luke's temperament couldn't help but feel a little moved.
People need a sense of belonging in this world. The ties of blood are often an important factor in determining a person's sense of belonging. ….
At this point, Luke has always been lacking, but now he can barely make up for it.
However, Luke's expression quickly subsided. He admitted that he was very happy that he had a relative, but this did not mean that he would blindly trust his uncle. Or put some unreasonable demands on this uncle.
He believes that blood is the bond between people. But he never believed that this bond would be strong enough to be very strong.
"uncle."
But, even so, Luke still shouted with a smile. After all, the joy in his tone could not be hidden.
When William heard this word, his expression also fluctuated. The eyes are quite complex. Finally, he reached out his hand, touched Luke's head and said, "Well, I'm here."
Looking at his uncle who looked strange in front of him, as if he was reminiscing about something, Luke smiled and asked, "Uncle, can you tell me something about your mother?"
William had heard some things about his little nephew's experience from his father. I also know that Kesha left his younger brother early, and even more so her son.
Now, two people who suffer from the same problem are sitting together to discuss this woman who can be said to occupy a very important position in their lives. His expression was more or less sad.
"Your mother and I have a very good relationship. After all, there are only two siblings in our family. My mother passed away early, and Kesha was the one who took care of me since I was a child..."
"My body has been relatively weak since I was a child, but I have been very naughty. My father was busy dealing with various things at the time. He could only leave me to my sister. It can be said that the two of us have been together since childhood.
Individuals depend on each other for survival. Our family is definitely not poor, but relatively speaking, money doesn’t mean much to the two of us. Our material needs are indeed met. But in our emotional life, we only have each other. "
"Later, when I grew up, the relationship between my sister and my father began to become a little tense for some reason. I was worried that the two of them would eventually fall out because of the accumulation of some small things. So I would mediate every time."
Speaking of this, even though many years have passed, William's face still showed bitterness involuntarily.
"Unfortunately, these are all useless efforts. My father wanted to marry my sister to a certain nobleman in the French wizarding world. But my sister would rather die than agree. And she disappeared for three years."
"The night before she disappeared, she said her final goodbye to me. She told me..."
"sorry……"
"I didn't know what she was sorry for at the time. Although it was very sad, I could still understand my sister's behavior. She was unwilling to accept her father's control. Of course, she also knew very well that her father was not harming her."
"After my sister left, my father also changed a lot. Gradually, he left all the family affairs to me and disappeared. I don't know where he went."
As one listened and the other spoke, both felt that something was getting more and more wrong.
"Yes, all the things at home were piled on me. At that time, I was only fifteen years old and still going to school at Beauxbatons."….
The uncle and nephew looked at each other, feeling that the feeling of sympathy for each other was getting stronger.
"But...three years later, my sister came back. With...her father."
"After my father learned the news about my sister, he also came back. I originally thought he would have a big quarrel with my sister, and I was not optimistic about the relationship between your father and your mother. But...he didn't stop it, even Deliberately promote.”
"But, we only met that side. I had a drink with your father. Your father didn't tell me his identity. But I could feel that he was definitely not an ordinary wizard. And that night, When my sister came to pick up your father... she said sorry to me again."
"After that, they disappeared again. After that, there was no news for more than ten years. I asked many questions about where they lived, but unfortunately I didn't find any clues. I also asked my father, but he refused to say anything. . Occasionally I receive postcards from my sister, and I collect them with great care."
"And one of the postcards is a picture of you when you were a child."
Luke's mouth froze for a moment, but it was only for a moment, and he soon returned to normal.
"And on the last postcard, she only wrote one sentence to me."
"sorry."
"Father told me that my sister is dead. Your father is also dead."
William stopped, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath. After exhaling a breath, he looked at Luke and said seriously: "It took me a long time to accept this reality."
"And after accepting this reality, I wanted to find you immediately. You are the last thing she left in the world. And she is only a child. It is wrong to abandon you like this."
"But my father stopped me. I don't know why. He just said it was my sister's request."
"I immersed myself in work and entertainment, keeping myself busy and numbing myself. During that time, I did not give up looking for you. It's just a pity that, just like before, I couldn't get any news."
"As for my sister...I think about her often. Even though I'm used to not having her."
William fell silent. Obviously, he is not as used to it as he said. Even after all these years, he still has deep feelings for his sister.
No matter how carelessly what is said, a person's reaction from the heart will not lie.
Luke looked at the blue to black emotional dust around William. Understand that his mood at the moment is from melancholy to sadness.
On the contrary, Luke himself was fine
. He remembered his mother as gentle and caring, but Luke was too young when they left. By now, I have been able to truly look at this matter with a normal mind.
Of course, the dream I had in the United States also played a huge role.
After a moment of silence, William continued to speak. This time, he looked at Luke.
"I didn't think that you would be the heir of the Gaunt family at first. Until I saw your photo in the newspaper. You and my sister are so similar."
"Your eyes and hair color are the same as your father's. But your facial features are very similar to your mother's."
"It was also at that time that I understood why my father did not object to my sister's marriage to your father. Because the Gunter family itself is a good match for us."
Luke thought to himself that he and Harry were really the other way around. Harry only resembles his mother's eyes, and his appearance is exactly the same as his father's.
As for him, only his eyes and hair resemble his father, while his facial features are those of his mother.
William did not stop, but continued.
"Although I don't know why you disappeared, but there are some reasons that are not humane to outsiders, so I won't ask further."
"So, Luke, did you have something to tell me when you called me out this time?".
I don't update
