I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - Chapter 389
c385 gem of the scottish highlands
In the evening, the sunset is fiery and the sunset covers the sky.
The ecological city in the Scottish Highlands, which was originally surrounded by empty wasteland, has also undergone a gorgeous transformation at this moment.
Starting from the original bulletproof glass wall and extending about two hundred meters forward, a five-meter-high wall with a high-voltage power grid has been erected.
A small military sentry tower was built every 15 meters on the wall, and each sentry tower was equipped with a heavy machine gun as standard.
This five-meter high wall wraps up the ecological city without any blind spots. It can be said to be a living outer city outside the city.
Of course, this ring of fence is not purely for defense. It serves more of a diversion and screening purpose.
Considering its closed nature, the original ecological city only had one entrance and exit large enough for one car to pass. But when tens of millions of people flood in in the future, this narrow entrance and exit will definitely not be enough.
For this reason, 12 entrances and exits were opened on the outer city wall, and corresponding review checkpoints and medical equipment were also installed. The former was to prevent anyone from carrying weapons of mass destruction, while the latter was purely for physical examination to prevent any infectious diseases.
At this moment, a bloated witch wearing a pink velvet dress was pacing back and forth outside the gate. From a distance, she looked like a huge pink toad lying on the ground waiting for food.
After pacing again, the pink toad seemed to have thought of something again, and turned to a Muggle officer beside him and said:
“I reiterate once again that whenever you see someone visiting with a ministerial warrant, you will notify me immediately. Do you understand?”
Although the Muggle officer’s eyes were full of disgust, he still replied expressionlessly: “Assistant lady, the order I received is to cooperate with you. I will obey your order as long as it does not violate the principles, but please don’t.” Repeatedly.”
She ate a soft nail, but under the circumstances, the witch couldn’t help but have an attack on the spot. She could only mutter to herself: “It’s the Assistant Minister… It’s true! Muggles are not very bright.”
But the sound seemed to be deliberately made to be heard by the officers around him.
…
At the same time, in the sky about 10 kilometers away from the eco-city, a white Explorer RV was flying in the air at a speed of 75Km/h.
In the cab that had been improved by the extension spell, Ian was driving while comparing his position on the map.
There is no way, car navigation has not been popularized in this era, everything depends on the driver’s sense of direction.
Unlike driving on the ground, flying in the air is really a matter of thousands of miles. After experiencing several consecutive flight deviations, Ian had to be careful.
In the co-pilot, Hermione was also holding a reduced version of the map, and looked up out of the window from time to time, as if looking for the corresponding coordinate reference.
Seemingly noticing the direction deviation, Hermione quickly corrected: “You have deviated from the direction, go a little to the left, and then fly in a straight line for 10 kilometers…”
“Roger! Sir!” Ian replied seriously, while not forgetting to salute with his left hand.
“Pfft~”
Seeing this funny scene, Hermione covered her mouth and laughed out loud.
A few minutes later.
“finally reached.”
After several hours of flying, I finally saw the brightly lit ecological city not far away, especially the huge glass protective cover, which looked stunningly beautiful under the refraction of light.
How to put it, this scene is like a dazzling gem suddenly growing out of the desolate Scottish Highlands.
As if he was getting more playful, Ian did not choose to land directly, but picked up the wand in his hand and put it against his chin:
“Dear passengers, please pay attention. Dear passengers, please pay attention. I am Captain Ian. We have arrived at our destination. I sincerely recommend that you come to the window and enjoy the city under the night sky…”
‘Hula~’
As soon as Ian finished speaking, everyone on the flat floor, including Mr. and Mrs. Granger, all leaned against the car window.
It’s no wonder they are like this. The Grangers are pretty good, after all, their daughter is a real wizard.
But others are really suffering on this journey, not from physical suffering, but from fear and anxiety about their future lives.
After all, the unknown represents fear. People can easily cross the river and see the bottom at a glance, but few people dare to set foot in the dark pool.
Back to business.
Outside the car window, the dreamy ecological city under the night sky dispelled the haze in everyone’s hearts.
Human beings are called visual creatures at heart, and this is vividly reflected at this moment. Looking at the bright city not far away, everyone has a thought:
‘It seems that living here is not a bad thing. ’
The RV was flying in mid-air, and as the distance got closer, the Muggle troops stationed on the ground seemed to have noticed something unusual.
But for the flying car, which is obviously the product of a wizard, they are also very friendly and only use two searchlights to lock and follow it.
Of course, if it were an airplane, even a small domestic helicopter, a warning shot would probably have been fired.
On the other side, the patrolling Aurors had actually discovered the RV a long time ago, but no one who could become an Auror was stupid.
This iconic touring car has become Ian’s exclusive logo since its debut at the World Cup, and the Aurors did not hesitate to intercept it.
“Huh~”
The RV landed smoothly in the walled outer city.
After opening the car door, before Ian could react, a sweet voice made him feel sick and gave him goosebumps.
“Finally I’ve been waiting for you, dear Mr. Titus!”
Umbridge had an exaggerated smile on her face. When she noticed that Ian’s eyes were turning towards her, she immediately found the right moment and began to introduce herself.
“I am Assistant Minister Dolores Umbridge. I received an order from Minister Fudge to come here to check in your family. This will also save you precious time…”
“Okay! I need to bring my family into the city now. Do I need to go through some procedures?” Ian interrupted the other party’s compliment.
To be honest, he didn’t have much dislike for the disgusting pink toad in the original work, and certainly didn’t have the slightest favorable impression.
To put it bluntly, the butt determines the head. The other person was polite and courteous from the beginning. There was really no reason to feel too much disgust. He reached out and didn’t hit the smiling person, and the other person didn’t offend me.
“Nothing is needed. Minister Fudge has already arranged everything. All you need to do now is follow me. After all…”
Just as Umbridge continued to boast, a cold voice came from beside her: “A warrant signed by the Minister of Magic of the British Isles is required!”
This sudden interruption attracted the attention of everyone present, and they saw a young officer blocking the RV at some point.
Umbridge turned around with an unhappy expression and scolded: “Shut up! I have the final say here, you little Muggle officer.”
“Anyone who wants to enter the city without inspection must produce a signed warrant! This is my duty!” the guard officer replied expressionlessly.
