Chapter 0001 Wool's Orphanage

_____________________________________________________________

Wool's Orphanage, an old orphanage in London.

This is a square building surrounded by high railings. The interior looks very shabby, but it is very tidy and spotless.

The time of the establishment of the orphanage is unknown. Although it has a long history, there is nothing else to be praised. There have been no famous businessmen, politicians, or scholars here, nor more kind-hearted people who donate or come to adopt.

This is just an ordinary and dilapidated orphanage on the verge of bankruptcy, and the administrator, Mrs. Gary, is just an ordinary old woman.

However, this orphanage, on the other side of the world, has an extraordinary reputation in a society inaccessible to mortals, and this reputation will be even stronger starting today.

Just today, June 11, 1991, this orphanage welcomed a special guest.

"Boom boom boom—"

The knock on the door reached Mrs. Gary's ears.

Nestled in the reclining chair, she put down the needle and thread in her hand and hurriedly walked to the door.

"On such a rainy day, who would come to visit such an old orphanage?"

She was puzzled about this, grabbed an old black umbrella on the shelf at the door, opened it, and walked towards the door.

Standing at the door was an old man. He was tall and thin, with long silver hair and a silver beard that could even reach his waist. Outside the robe, the old man wore a purple cloak and was dirty. Camouflage black umbrella. The robe was soaking wet, and the half-moon-shaped glasses were covered with drops of water.

Mrs. Gary is 60 years old, but she feels that the old man is much older than her. What is amazing is that this old man who is old enough to be her father (in Mrs. Gary's opinion) looks much more energetic than her, his beautiful blue eyes are full of bright life.

"Oh, come in." Mrs. Gary hurriedly pulled out a large key from the keyring, and laboriously opened the somewhat rusty door of the orphanage: "The weather is really bad these days, the children's clothes have not been dry in two days."

"That seems right." The old man agreed, and followed Mrs. Gary into the main entrance of the orphanage. He looked around, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

"It hasn't changed at all, it's still so tidy." He sighed.

"Of course." Mrs. Gary pulled out a clean towel from the cabinet and handed it to the wet old man, proudly saying: "This has always been the case here. Although we can't provide rich living conditions, we will still do our best. It is possible to give the children a good living environment. This has been the case since Mrs. Cole. Unfortunately, not many people will come to help us, and not many people will help these poor little ones." The old lady of the mouth couldn't help complaining again.

"Have you been here before? I don't seem to remember you." She was curious.

"Oh, it was many years ago," the old man recalled: "It was about fifty-seven... or fifty-eight years? I can't remember. The one who received me was Mrs. Cole, who provided me with great help."

"Then you are in your 80s?" Mrs. Gary asked casually while making tea for the guests.

"Trust me, I am older than you think." The old man finally dried his beard and hair with a towel, and then started talking with the somewhat lonely old woman.

After a while, the old woman who had satisfied the desire to chat remembered the business: "Then, this gentleman, you... oh, how rude of me, I forgot to ask your name."

"Albus, Albus Dumbledore." The old man replied: "My occupation is the principal of a private school. I came here to find a boy named Ting Ye."

"Oh, Ting Ye." At the mention of this name, the muddy eyes of the old woman seemed to light up: "Little Ting Ye is our pride. There is no more intelligent and sensible child than him. I've seen all kinds of mischievous little kids, you know, that's what my profession is like, but I have never seen such a smart and sensible little adult."

Mrs. Gary's face revealed immense pride and joy, and she babbled and introduced perpetually, "Ever since Ting Ye spoke at the age of one, he has never cried with, whether he's hungry or is bullied by older kids, he works hard to face it alone, he is really a strong kid."

Mrs. Gary filled Dumbledore a cup of black tea and continued: "This child is cute and reads books. He began to read from the beginning of his literacy. He reads everything from newspapers, magazines, dictionaries, and novels. This kid has a clever mind. I learn fast, I can read newspapers fluently at the age of 3..."

Just like introducing her proud grandson, the old woman spent a long time introducing the 10-year-old boy named Ting Ye. Dumbledore listened patiently and gradually gained a basic impression of the child: smart, sensible, eager to learn, diligent, kind, etc., although he knew more or less about it, the old woman was subjective, but this impression is generally perfect.

"Then," Dumbledore pondered his words, and asked Mrs. Gary, "Has anything weird and strange happened to this child?"

"Strange things—" Upon hearing this word, the smile on the old woman's face disappeared instantly, and she screamed displeasedly: "Nothing strange has ever happened to Ting Ye! He is a such a good boy who happened to meet this unfortunate fate. An honest gentleman would never doubt such a good boy."

"Yes, yes, I don't doubt him, I just want to understand him comprehensively." Even a great wizard and principal like Dumbledore, couldn't deal with this almost irritated old woman at this time. It took him a long time to convince the old woman that he was not malicious.

"How is this possible?" He thought to himself: "The Quill of Admittance clearly wrote his name on the Book of Admittance, which proves that he is not a Muggle or a squib. He indeed has a talent for magic, which almost always causes all kinds of accidents before learning to control their magic, but Mrs. Gary, as the caretaker, actually didn't notice anything. This is because his talent is too low or..." Thinking of this, he recalled that man again, and then put his questions and thoughts to the bottom of his heart.

"Well," At the end of the conversation, Dumbledore finally made his request: "As the principal of Hogwarts School, I hope to recruit Ting Ye to be a student of our school. I am here to give him an admission letter and want to meet him."

"Oh, it's another school's admission notice. I knew that our Ting Ye would always get recognized." Mrs. Gary responded cheerfully: "But at present, only one of your principals has come in person, but this, he needs to decide on his own, you know, even Eton College has sent him an acceptance letter."

With that, Mrs. Gary got up from the chair: "I'll take you to his room. Ting Ye should be reading at this moment."

With that said, she took Dumbledore up the stairs.

In Wool's Orphanage, Ye Ting is a legend.

When he was only a few months old, he was picked up at the door of the orphanage by Mrs. Gary who went out to get the newspaper.

At that time, he was wrapped in a suit of adult clothes. The only thing all over his body that could prove his identity was a plastic card with the words "Ye Ting" written on it. Combined with his Asian appearance, Ye Ting became his name.

From a very young age, Ye Ting showed his genius. Whether it is learning to speak, walk or recognize words, he is much faster than his peers. And he is quite sensible, never letting the adults worry.

Although Ye Ting's skin color looks different than others at Wool's Orphanage, Ye Ting can easily become the king of children in the orphanage with the maturity and wisdom beyond his age, no matter whether the children are older or younger than him, they are all convinced by him.

Since Ye Ting was five years old, the nurses of Wool's Orphanage felt that their workload was much less. Under Ye Ting's management, the children gradually became obedient and sensible, and even some older children would take the initiative to help with housework.

Moreover, Ye Ting is also the only genius in the nearby elementary school. In class, there are no problems that can stump him. The teachers and principal praised him, and even after graduating from elementary school, he received an admission letter from the prestigious Eton College.

But no one knows that, in fact, this famous genius is a traveler from another world.

In his previous life, Ye Ting was a college student at Baacheng University. His family background was middle-class, and the university was also one of the top ten universities in China. His major is computer engineer, which is very popular nowadays. This way, he is not to say that he is a winner in life, but he can also be regarded as an upper-middle level among his peers.

In addition, Ye Ting is an otaku himself, and he is quite involved in various ACGs.

Before crossing, he happened to take advantage of the May 1st holiday to watch "Reunion 4". As a result, thunder fell from the sky. The unlucky Ye Ting was swallowed up by the lightning and disappeared without a trace, he was regarded as a temporary urban legend.

It was this accident that led to his crossing.

In fact, he was not struck to death by lightning.

At that time, Ye Ting only saw a flash of lightning, a bolt of lightning flashed suddenly in front of him, and the lightning opened a crack in the air. Sand, gravel, including himself, everything was absorbed by the crack. Only then did he realize that this was the legendary void of space.

And he fell into an endless fantasy space from this hole. This chaotic space is full of weird and dangerous turbulence, and occasionally similar cracks will suddenly appear. These cracks often only exist for a moment. Then it disappears without a trace, but there will always be something ejected from the opening of the crack-all kinds of ranging from living and non-living things, some as large as the planet and some as small as dust, and then would be drawn into the dangerous turbulence and disappear.

In Ye Ting's view, this space should be the space-time channel connecting the universe to the outside of the universe, and the space cracks lead to different universes. The cracks appear because of accidents, and then they are automatically repaired in an instant. Only in rare cases can the matter in the universe be brought into the space-time channel, and all the matter inhaled into it will be wiped out.
