Chapter 23 Blue Beak

After dinner, Xing Ze found his office and dormitory with the help of an enthusiastic teacher.

That kind man was named Ben MacMillan, a new teacher who was two years older than Xing Zeqiu. Along the way, he was talking about how he passed the written examination and interview and got the teaching seat at Hogwarts.

Like Xing Ze, he teaches Muggle Studies and is very nice except for the bit of a mouthful.

Xing Ze's office is located on the side of Clock Square, near the shed bridge that was blown up in the original movie.

The room is not small in size, and there is a partition wall in the middle that divides it into two. The outside is used as an office, and the inside is used as a bedroom.

The furnishings of the office are very simple. A long wooden table is placed near the window. In front of the table is a sofa and a coffee table. The floor is covered with an oval red and black checkered carpet. There is a fireplace and bookcases on the right side of the coffee table. and wine cabinet a few steps from the fireplace.

The bedroom door is behind the couch, near the wine cabinet. There is a bed, a small desk, and a wardrobe inside.

Xing Ze took some time to tidy things up. He took out all the practical things in his briefcase and put them away, and then put a delicate brass ring on his leg.

The ring has the "Invisible Stretching Charm", which of course has been approved by the Ministry of Magic. Its space is roughly equivalent to a cupboard, which contains some items for survival in the wild, tents, bald water, canned food, etc. Part of the space is reserved for medical supplies.

"Very thoughtful." Xing Ze sighed with emotion. He was equally cautious in that world.

Outside the window, the raven tapped the glass with its beak. After opening the window, it immediately flew in. Xing Ze saw a stone in its mouth. He stretched out his leg and the bird landed on his leg.

"Where did I get it?" That stone has magic power. Although the magic power is very weak, Xing Ze can still sense it, or rather through the blue beak.

"What's the use?" Xing Ze asked again.

Blue Beak swallowed the stone, and then it transformed into a black mud shield as big as a police shield. Then by calling on the magic power of the stone, the entire shield turned into stone in less than a second. Like a solid stone wall.

Xing Ze stood up in surprise and stretched out his legs to touch the shield. It was incredible, even in the magical world.

You know, although transfiguration can change objects regardless of their physical structure, it requires precise control of the magic power of the wizard, and it also requires a lot of practice. Therefore, it is an extremely advanced spell, and it is not easy to master.

The power that Blue Beak has just revealed, although it is not a high-level transformation spell, is far superior to ordinary wizards in terms of accuracy and time. It only takes about a second to guide the magic to complete the transformation. . In his memory, Xing Ze had met Professor McGonagall who could do this.

The stones containing magic power disappeared quickly. After a while, the stone wall turned back into black mud. After twisting a few times, it turned into a raven again.

Xing Ze suddenly realized that it was not some kind of transformation, but a kind of magic he had never seen before.

No, it would be too wrong to classify it as transfiguration. Xing Ze thought as the shining Trapezohedron absorbed the magic power and then transformed it into another form.

Just like the dead Novel Ke, it was drained of magic power and flesh and blood, and even no bones were left. Transfiguration couldn't do that.

"So, I'm longing for magic power?" Xing Ze looked at the raven and murmured. Blue Beak squawked a few times, as if confirming Xing Ze's words.

Xing Ze was silent for a moment and then asked: "If he helps me, can I take him back to his original world?"

"Quack." There were still two crows.

"Then it's agreed."

…

Xing Ze had a good sleep. He couldn't remember how long he hadn't slept well. Ever since he became a detective, nightmares had become his closest companion.

He got up early to see if the weather would be good for traveling tomorrow. He washed up briefly, and after breakfast, he set off for Wrong Corner Alley. Before going to the Three Broomsticks pub, he needed a wand of his own.

Due to the plague in Wales, the Floo site in Hogsmeade Village was closed, so he had to go to New Ravenska Village, which probably took him more than an hour.

Bu Nao also gave him plenty of time to read Mingyue's prophet's monthly report while the Yeqi carriage was around. The train accident was captured by the World Quidditch Tournament, which did not hinder the information Xing Ze wanted to find.

Conductor Balk was sent to St. Mungo's Hospital, conductor Bowman was under further interrogation, and other staff were temporarily placed in the Ministry of Magic. They falsely claimed to be receiving comprehensive treatment. As for the true situation, No one can tell.

The local people were worried about that, and they wanted a reasonable explanation. The Ministry of Magic was happy to blame the corpse on the corpse, so the train incident turned into a terrorist attack carefully planned by the corpse.

Monster? Oh, come on, how many people want to believe that the legendary ice demon appears outside the UK? The Prophet Monthly always tells the truth.

In addition, four enthusiastic passengers disappeared and they were portrayed as unsung heroes. In comparison, there are almost no reports about Xing Ze. Professor McGonagall may have said wrongly. The British Ministry of Magic does not need a yellow-skinned hero. The Department of Mysteries and Mysteries of the Wanderer has other plans for him.

…

New Ravenscar is a small village, but it is much larger than Hogsmeade. Most of the residents there come from Old Ravenscar, which was destroyed during the goblin rebellion.

Unlike Hogsmeade, there are both wizards and Muggles there, and cars are as common as flying brooms. Most of the local wizards are mixed-blood. They do not discriminate against Muggles, and some are even very happy to accept those new things.

The bar with the Floo Network mark is on the side of the muddy crossroads. Xing Ze took some effort to find it.

There were many wizards in the bar waiting to use the Floo fireplace. Xing Ze asked for a number from the bartender and waited quietly.

When Kingsley appeared, he was staring at the wall clock behind the bar counter in a daze until the tall black wizard walked in front of him, and he came back to his senses.

"What a coincidence, Xingze." Kingsley said with a smile, "Where am I going?"

He came alone, and there was a lady with him, also an acquaintance - Nymphadora Tonks. It seems that the train incident is a bit tricky.

"Then it's me, the unknown hero." Tonks's mouth curled up slightly, looking at Xingze from the east, "More ordinary than he thought, are they right?"

"Keep your voice down, Tonks, there are many people there." Kingsley reminded.

Xing Ze smiled bitterly. He saw Tonks shook her pink hair nonchalantly. "He plans to go to Wrong Corner Alley to buy some things."

"Really?" Kingsley looked at Xing Ze meaningfully. "There is a Floo network fireplace at the train station. He can take me there. It will be much faster. Why waste time there?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Kingsley. He won't be waiting there. I see, he will be here soon."

Kingsley's smile did not change. He nodded and said, "If I insist on doing so, then wish me a pleasant journey."

"Me too."
