After the Black woman finished giving alms, she saw Harvey's handsome face when he looked up and suddenly felt an urge to adopt him.
This child is so pitiful.
But thinking about the child's intellectual disability, the Black woman shook her head with regret and turned to leave.
After watching the kind man walk away, Harvey took the five coins he had earned through his own efforts and quickly ran several hundred meters back to the hamburger shop he had just passed.
But he hadn't even had a chance to step into the store.
"Bang! Boom!"
The sudden gunshot made Harvey's pupils shrink instantly.
"what--"
Customers screamed and scattered in all directions.
"Is this... America? Gunfights at the drop of a hat?"
Harvey, looking completely astonished, stood there for a moment before realizing what was happening and quickly ran out with the crowd rushing out of the store.
In the midst of the chaos, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his shoulder.
"Ow..."
Harvey screamed and fell to the ground.
The fleeing crowd didn't even glance at the unfortunate child who had fallen by the roadside, and continued running past the child.
Everyone seemed to be possessed by Usain Bolt, darting past Xavi like lightning.
Harvey, shot and lying on the ground, had his shirt stained with blood, and his beautiful blue eyes revealed helplessness and despair.
Just as his consciousness was fading, a portal with blue light flashing at its edges suddenly appeared in front of him.
Seeing this amazing scene.
Hope rekindled in Harvey's eyes, and he began to drag his increasingly weak body, using his last bit of strength to crawl towards the portal...
Chapter 2 Good boy, so well-behaved?
1991, April 6.
In the evening, the sun was setting in the west.
Located at 8 Heathgate Street in Hampstead Gardens, London, is the home of the famous dentist and his wife, the Grangers.
Dim light streamed through the windows into the bedroom of this classic English villa.
A little girl with fluffy brown curly hair, wearing pink bear pajamas, is studying Aristotle's "Politics" diligently at a neat and tidy desk.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, she will be enrolling in Eton College, one of London's best private schools, in September.
This book is one of the textbooks used in Eton College's politics class.
Although both her parents were middle-class, little Hermione Granger did not want to follow in their footsteps and become a dentist when she grew up.
Therefore, she studies hard every day, just so that she can have better career options when she grows up.
Time always flies when you're engrossed in studying.
As the room grew dimmer, Hermione blinked her beautiful pale green eyes twice, preparing to turn on the desk lamp.
Suddenly, a faint blue light appeared behind her, illuminating the entire room.
Hermione Granger turned around with curiosity, and her eyes widened as if she saw something incredible.
A portal with shimmering blue edges magically appeared in his bedroom.
Hermione also witnessed a 'dead kid' dressed in thin clothes, covered in blood, fall out of the portal and land headfirst in the fluffy duvet, where he was buried under several cabbage dolls scattered on the bed.
"Ah—Mom! Help!"
Hermione screamed in fright at the sight; she thought she was seeing a dead person—it was clearly a scene from a horror movie!
Granger's mother, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen on the first floor of the villa while wearing a kitchen apron, heard her daughter scream. Her heart clenched, and she quickly rushed upstairs to the second floor.
The door was pushed open with a "bang!"
When Granger's mother saw her daughter pointing at the blood-soaked child on the bed, she almost had a heart attack.
Wow... Oh!
Granger's father, the only male head of the household, was still working overtime at the dentist's office.
Granger's mother was completely at a loss when faced with this sudden accident.
"Take me away, Mom! This place is terrifying!"
Hermione was so frightened that she clung tightly to her mother's leg, her eyes closed, not daring to look back even once.
"Don't be afraid, Mom's here... By the way, where did this child come from?"
Granger's mother calmed down, gently comforting her daughter while stepping forward to check the child's breath.
"Waaah...it's so scary..." Hermione sobbed, her mind blank, and she had no intention of answering her mother's questions.
When Granger's mother discovered that the child was still breathing, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "God!"
Hermione, who was clinging to her mother's leg, was so frightened that she started screaming again.
"what--"
Granger's mother, flustered and disoriented, spent a while calming her daughter down and immediately called the hospital to send an ambulance to take the blood-soaked child off the bed.
......
A week later, Granger's mother received a message from the hospital.
The child has fully recovered from his injuries.
The hospital described the child, whose recovery was incredibly fast, as a miracle boy!
But for some reason, the child remained in a coma.
The doctor speculated that the child may have suffered a mild concussion when he was injured, possibly from a head injury, and that external stimulation was needed to wake him from his coma.
However, the hospital is powerless to help in this situation. It would be better to let the child go home to recuperate, and maybe he will suddenly wake up one day.
In fact, the reason Harvey fell into a coma was quite simple.
That's because the magic of this world is slowly transforming his physique, which is why he has been in a coma for so long.
However, Granger's mother didn't understand these things. With a kind heart, she took Harvey home to recuperate, considering that the child's parents couldn't be found for the time being.
A child in a vegetative state has joined the family.
Hermione went from feeling uncomfortable at first to gradually getting used to having a 'Sleeping Beauty' in the house in just three days.
Two weeks later, on June 23.
8 Heathgate Street, second-floor bedroom of the villa.
While studying in her room, Hermione suddenly noticed that everything around her, including her desk, chair, wardrobe, dressing table, and dolls, was floating.
"Hmm... why are these things floating up against the laws of physics?" Hermione had a strange sense of déjà vu at the sight before her.
She also experienced this magical phenomenon when she was seven years old.
Thinking of the portal that suddenly appeared a few weeks ago, and this familiar scene, Hermione couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Could it be that I've become... a legendary magical girl?"
Meanwhile, in the guest rooms on the second floor of the villa.
Harvey, who had been in a coma for two whole weeks, slowly opened his eyes and saw a wooden ceiling and the unfamiliar surroundings.
"Where...am I? I'm so thirsty..."
Harvey's hoarse voice carried a deep weariness.
He had never felt so weak, but his young body was shot and he was lucky to have survived.
I'm just a little weak and thirsty now, but that's nothing...
Thinking of his thirst, Harvey was suddenly surprised to find a glass of water floating in mid-air in front of him.
"This...this...I have superpowers?"
But on second thought, Harvey didn't find it strange, since no one stipulated that a time traveler could only have one cheat ability, right?
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Child? I think I hear your voice. Are you awake?"
The unfamiliar middle-aged woman's voice outside the door immediately put Harvey on guard.
There was no time to slowly explore the question of superpowers. He quickly reached out and caught the water glass that was floating in the air. After drinking it in big gulps, his weak body quickly recovered.
With his strength restored, Harvey could no longer lie in bed and be at the mercy of others; he was just about to get up and run away.
"Bah-"
The door had already been pushed open.
Ms. Granger, wearing a light blue plaid dress, looked at Harvey on the bed with delight.
"My God! Child, you're finally awake?"
Harvey was completely bewildered, and he looked at the unfamiliar middle-aged woman warily.
"who are you?"
“Don’t be afraid, child. I am Kate Granger Wendell.”
Ms. Granger first gave a brief introduction of herself, and then slowly recounted her experiences over the past few days to Harvey.
Three weeks ago, you poor thing, covered in blood, suddenly appeared in our house and almost terrified my lovely little daughter...
Upon hearing this, Harvey immediately relaxed his guard; it seemed that this middle-aged woman named Granger was a good person.
“By the way, child, are you hungry? I’ve made lunch…” Ms. Granger asked with concern.
Harvey, feeling his stomach was empty, didn't stand on ceremony and nodded to admit he was hungry.
"Can you walk on your own? You spent a week in the hospital and then two weeks at home. I'm worried you haven't fully recovered..."
