I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - #149 - Chapter 149 Changes
I don’t know if these special parasites are big-hearted, or if they really don’t care about the little guy running around alone.
In short, in the following days, Norma would run to the cabin early in the morning, stay there all day, and leave on time before sunset.
He liked Norma from the bottom of his heart. This child was so well-behaved that it made people feel heartbroken. When he was brewing potions or doing other work, Norma would always sit quietly by herself, hugging her legs.
“Here, the ball.” Ian said and handed a colorful ball to the other party. People always have a preference for good children.
Seeing Norma opening her mouth to bite, he quickly stopped her and then showed her how to play.
From then on, there was a child holding a ball next to him. Even…even during meal time, she still would not put down the ball in her hand.
…
After stretching hard, Ian stopped what he was doing.
After checking the time, he felt that it was almost time for lunch, so he went to the refrigerator to get the ingredients. He had long since eliminated the diesel generator. Now that he was on the plains, he chose a cleaner solar power panel.
20 pounds of beef, some vegetables, and a considerable amount of freshly baked bread. This food for about a dozen people is the standard lunch for him and Norma.
After all, the child has been with him all day, and he has to take care of a meal no matter what. It’s just that Norma is not big, but her appetite is really big, and the food is just like a breeze.
“Now I finally know why you are growing so fast. You are a standard jobber…”
Before he finished speaking, Norma stared at him with her little deer eyes and hummed in a sweet voice: “The jobber?”
“Uh…” Ian couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard this. “Today is a temporary test. If you answer incorrectly, you will not be allowed to play ball in the afternoon.”
Ball may still be the right way to open Norma’s mouth. As long as she hears this word, no matter what she is doing, she will always stop what she is doing and listen quietly, even if she is eating.
“What is this?” he asked, pointing to the bread on the table.
“The ball…” After Norma answered, she quickly looked up at him, and then showed a sly smile. The second before he was about to get angry, he immediately changed his words: “Bread!”
Although Ian has already adapted to Norma’s intelligence, he still sighs at it. This child is simply like the darling of God, the kind of product that is loved by both heaven and earth. Whether it’s IQ, EQ, or learning ability, he surpasses anyone he has ever seen.
But he did not intend to end the test hastily like this, and then asked about several items. After Norma answered accurately, he began the unshakable teaching time every day… the oral communication class.
…
This oral communication class came to an end when the sun deviated from the noon meridian. Judging from the class performance, Norma also fully absorbed the new knowledge.
In the afternoon, he was still studying potions, while Norma watched quietly. Before dusk came, the little girl quietly walked to the door alone. This was her standard time to go home.
“Norma, wait a minute.” Ian called to the little guy who was about to leave. “This is for you, your reward for today’s exam.”
In Norma’s expectant eyes, Ian took out two things and handed them to her. A bottle of healing potion and a butterfly hairpin. The former can increase Norma’s status in the tribe, and the latter is a reward for her outstanding performance.
Of course, whether it was a rubber ball or a hairpin, he used the transformation technique to temporarily make it.
He saw that when he took out the hairpin, Norma’s eyes seemed to be glued to it. The little guy has never seen a butterfly since he was born, let alone a luxury version like his that was inlaid with gems.
“like……”
Ian looked at the other party with some surprise. This was the first time Norma took the initiative to communicate. He looked at the little guy standing there with a happy expression on his face. He also said very happily:
“As long as you like it, I’ll give it to you. Come home quickly.”
Watching Norma leave quickly, he has always been curious about how those short legs can have such speed…
“It seems that next time I return, I will not only stock up on food, but also buy some toys…” Ian thought to himself.
It can be seen that Norma cares about these toys very much. So he didn’t want to wait a few years later for the other party to find that what she cherished had turned into a pebble.
…
A week flies by, time will never stop for anyone, it is ruthless and affectionate, and treats all living things fairly.
“Do you understand? Grind the red into powder, and when the water in the crucible boils, add it all at once. Remember, the water must boil completely, not in advance, let alone later…”
While boiling the potion, Ian said to a girl wearing a white linen dress next to him. The other person is about 8-9 years old, with a delicate little face and a pair of clear deer eyes. He looks like a large Barbie doll.
Yes, Norma has undergone earth-shaking changes in one week, which is basically the growth rate of one year old per day.
And this white linen dress was also given to her by him a few days ago. After all, wearing only a layer of leaves around your waist is always unsightly.
“I know, I’ve said it many times…” Norma looked a little helpless, but she still answered honestly.
Then the little guy raised his head and looked at him eagerly.
“If you have anything to say, just say it. What’s going on, old Donna?” Ian saw her expression and knew there was something going on behind the scenes.
As for Old Donna, she was the middle-aged female leader she had met before. Norma taught her all the languages she had learned and gave them names for each of them.
“Yes…Donna wanted me to ask you, can you accept other children? Two more children have been born.”
Ian couldn’t help but feel a little dizzy after hearing this. It seemed that the other party really regarded this place as a kindergarten… However, complaints were complaints, and he still had to do things. Just like spring plowing and sowing, seeds must be planted. Thinking of this, he said helplessly:
“Okay, bring it with you next time you come.”
“I knew you were the best.” Norma said with a beaming face. Then the conversation changed: “It’s time for us to eat… I’m a little hungry.”
“All you think about every day is eating.”
Although he was speechless, he still got up and went to prepare lunch. The once abundant material storage was now being reduced to nothing by Norma every month. This made him guess the purpose of Donna sending the child here, maybe… just for a simple meal?
The reason for this speculation is that according to Norma’s description, they only need to eat a lot during the growth period. After they are 12 years old, only a little bit every day is enough.
And her little bit is compared to Ian’s daily food intake.
Ian also understood this, otherwise one meal would be enough for more than a dozen people. This kind of consumption is fine with a small number of people. Once the population increases, he is really worried that this area will not be able to support them.
