Chapter 22 Nicolas Flamel
If apparation is to put you into a condom that does not match your size, and then force you to pull it out...
Then use the Portkey, like the positive and negative poles of a magnet, first sucking you in, and then popping away like the Shinra Tensei.
Novices who use door keys for the first time will feel a sense of embarrassment similar to "my style is better than yours" because of this unexpected repulsion.
But Rolf once followed Newt and illegally used portkeys to cross the border, so he was quite experienced, and he finally landed firmly on his feet.
The young man looked up and saw that this was a magnificent hall, with a glossy dark wooden floor under his feet and a peacock blue ceiling above his head, with countless golden symbols floating on it, like golden koi fish.
Not far away, there is a magic fountain. In the middle of the fountain's pool, there is a group of pure gold statues:
The tallest one is a handsome wizard, who raises his wand and points it straight to the sky. Surrounding him are a witch, a centaur, a goblin and a house elf.
Centaurs, goblins, and house elves all looked up at the wizards and wizards in admiration.
Luofu immediately determined his position:
British Ministry of Magic.
He looked at the famous magic fountain with great interest. The history of this fountain was actually much older than the British Ministry of Magic.
This is a magical statue looted from outside with the expansion of the British Empire, and finally placed in the hall of the Ministry of Magic.
During the goblin rebellion in the seventeenth century, the goblin statue was damaged by wizards, but as the rebellion ended, a new one was built.
Looking at it now, the color of the goblin statue is out of place with the others.
At this time, it was already night, and the Ministry of Magic had already got off work. Unlike the huge crowds of people during the day, only a few wizards were on duty.
"Mr. Scamander, shall I send an Auror to see you off?" Scrimgeour said.
"No need to go to such trouble, Mr. Scrimgeour." Newt said quickly: "Thank you very much for your help tonight."
"That's very kind of you, Mr. Scamander. If you have any questions, please contact me again."
Scrimgeour was not a grudge, so since Newt refused, he left with a group of Aurors and prisoners.
Tonks waved goodbye to Rove.
Newt and Rolf walked towards a golden fireplace, and after getting in, a woman's cold voice sounded.
"Place."
Newt thought for a moment and said, "St. James Park."
The fireplace lit up with green flames, and Luo Fe felt like the world was spinning. When he opened his eyes again, he appeared in a blue police box.
Rove walked out of the police box, not far away from St James' Park.
St. James's Park is located in the center of London, adjacent to Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, and St. James's Palace.
It was originally a deer hunting park for King Henry VIII of England. It was later turned into an execution ground during the Victorian era and is now a park and golf course.
Even at night, there are still many citizens and tourists.
"How do we get to Nico Flamel's estate?" Rove asked.
"Take out the invitation and someone will come to pick us up."
Newt and Rolf took out their invitations and sat on a bench in the square. Two boxes were placed on the ground. While waiting for someone, they fed the partridges flying around.
The ancestors of these partridges were a gift from the Russian Ambassador to the "Happy King" Charles II. Over the centuries, they have multiplied and are now as dangerous as the monkeys in Mount Emei.
They even attack tourists for food.
After waiting for about five minutes, a speeding black car stopped not far away.
It was a classic car with graceful lines. The body was flat and wide, giving it a very classical beauty.
"Hello! Hello!" came the English with a French accent in the car, "Is this Mr. Scamander?"
Luofu looked up and saw that the driver was an old man with white hair. He was holding a cigar and wearing black sunglasses.
"Nico, why are you here in person?" Newt walked over in surprise.
The old man in a white robe got out of the car, stretched out his hand to Newt with a graceful attitude, and said with a smile:
"Of course I'm here to greet you. I'm sorry that you have to come all the way from Romania because of my funeral."
Newt seemed to be afraid of hurting Nico, so he shook hands with the old man very carefully.
"This must be Rolf." Nico looked at the blond boy, stretched out his hand to him, and said with a smile: "Hello, I am Nico Flamel, just call me Nico."
"Hello!" Rolf imitated Newt and held the old man's hand very gently, but Nico still took a breath of air.
Luofu quickly let go and apologized. The old man rubbed his palms, winked at the young man and said:
"For an old man who is over 600 years old, his body and bones are definitely not as strong as those of a young man."
"Let's go, I'll take you to the manor."
Nico Flamel sat in the cab, and Newt and Rolf got into the back seat of the comfortable and luxurious car.
Rolf looked at the car. After being expanded with the Invisible Stretching Charm, it looked more like a small house. In addition to small bookshelves, there were also a variety of pastries and a free-standing magic wine cabinet.
There are several bottles of 1882 Lafite placed in the magic wine cabinet.
Luo Fu was a little stunned. He just said that he came from an ordinary family!
The car quickly left St. James' Park and sped down Thames Avenue. Through the window, Rove could vaguely see Big Ben and Tower Bridge in the distance.
"Nico, you still like racing so much." Newt smiled.
"I haven't raced often in recent years." Nico picked up a cigar and smoked it. Large clouds of smoke filled the air, but the cigar smoke and the seat behind did not interfere with each other.
It seemed that there was an invisible barrier.
"Since Brezhnev's death, I have rarely driven in recent years... He is an interesting car buddy."
Rove was also surprised. He knew that Xunzong was an avid car collector, but he didn't expect that he was a car buddy with Nico Flamel.
"What car is this?" The boy asked curiously. He just saw the car logo and didn't recognize it.
"I have collected the Studebaker sedan for many years. This is a custom model of that year, but the company has closed down."
"..."
Nico seemed to be a real old driver. He suddenly stepped on the accelerator and drove towards Westminster Bridge.
Rove wanted to praise Nico's good driving skills, but as soon as this thought came up, the car rushed out of the bridge and fell towards the Thames.
"..."
The car landed on the water, and Rove, who was sitting in the car, did not feel any vibration, but was very stable.
The car sped on the river, and Rove could see the infinite scenery on both sides of the Thames River, which was filled with water vapor.
Muggles could not see the car, and the busy transport ships on the river jumped to avoid the car when it drove over, and returned to their original positions after it passed.
The speed of the car was getting faster and faster, and Rove only felt that the pictures kept flashing in his vision:
The winding peaks, the vast wilderness, the low and undulating mountains, the corn fields steamed by the heat waves...
Everything in front of him was like an impressionist painting with light ink, and more like a movie presented in front of Rove in a fast-forward way.
After an unknown amount of time, Rove, who was leaning on the comfortable leather seat, opened his eyes, and it turned out that the car had stopped in front of a building.
Nicolas Flamel smiled and said:
"Welcome to my manor."
