The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 403 Departure, Ekaterinaburg

On the day before Christmas, Harry stayed late in the DA function room because he spent a lot of time chatting with Ginny over tea after everyone had left.

Naturally, he received a warning from Ron as his older brother when he returned to the common room.Although Ron himself agreed with his sister to fall in love with him, he was still a little worried that Harry would bully Ginny.Naturally, Harry patted his chest and swore that Ginny would not be harmed no matter what.

It might be because Harry's brain was always in a state of excitement due to today's successful date, so it took a long time for him to fall asleep in a daze after lying on the bed.In his sleep, he dreamed of the scene where he guided everyone to practice in DA.However, it didn't take long for this scene to appear, and an unexpected illusion appeared in the dream.

In the dream, Harry found his body growing soft, strong and flexible, sliding between the shiny metal bars and over the dark, cold stones.His body was flat against the ground, sliding on his belly, the light was very dim, but he could see the light of the surrounding objects, some strange, vivid colors.

Turning his head, he found a person sitting on the ground with his head hanging on his chest, his silhouette flickering in the dimness.Harry felt an urge to bite the dozing man with his teeth, but an inner command seemed to hold him back.

But the man who was dozing off woke up.Jumping up, a silver cloak slipped from his lap, and Harry saw his bright, blurry silhouette looming before him, a wand drawn from its belt.

He had no choice but to rear up and strike, but a strange barrier bounced off the man to block the blow.He attacked again, probably because the poison on his teeth had taken effect just now, this time the barrier did not come out.His fangs ruthlessly crushed the man's hastily released magic defense, and bit the man's arm in front of him, feeling the arm bone shattered between his teeth, hot blood... …

The man screamed in pain...and fell silent...collapsed against the wall...the poison took effect...blood dripped from his mouth to the ground...

His forehead hurt like hell... as if it was going to explode...

"Harry! Harry!"

He opened his eyes, drenched in cold sweat, and the sheet was wrapped around him like a tights.He felt like a hot poker had been stuck in his forehead.His vision was blurry with pain, but he was going to tell Ron that it was important...

"Your father," said Harry breathlessly, his chest heaving, "your father... had an accident...he was bitten, badly, and there was blood everywhere."

"Harry, buddy," Ron said dubiously, "you... you're just dreaming."

"No!" said Harry furiously, making sure Ron understood, "It wasn't a dream, it wasn't just a dream. I was there, I saw it... I did it!"

The accident before Christmas made Harry and the Weasley family tense and busy, but these things were not revealed to others.So Hermione wondered why she didn't see Harry and the Weasleys on the Hogwarts Express back to London.

"I think maybe they have something to do." Ryan comforted. "At Christmas time, there's always a lot of things that catch us off guard. It shouldn't be a big deal."

When they got off the train at King's Cross Station, they saw that the Christmas atmosphere here was very strong.In the hall of the train station stands a huge Christmas tree, covered with glittering decorations.

"Where should we go next?" asked Hermione, who was pulling a small suitcase, in fact, as wizards, they could use space equipment to fit all their luggage into it.But since he chooses to travel in the way of Muggles, it would seem a little strange to travel across the country without any luggage.So each of them still brought a small suitcase.

"Go straight to Heathrow Airport, Penello is waiting for us there with everything." Ryan said and Hermione took the blue carriage of the Piccadilly Line subway directly to the airport's No. [-] flight at the train station. station building.

More than an hour later, the two arrived at their destination, just in time to see Penello waiting for them with a black bag in his hand.

"Your passports, visas and air tickets are all inside." Penello handed the black bag to Ryan. "Besides, there are all the information you asked others to find before. I have checked that there is nothing missing. Finally, I wish you a happy game!"

"How are you going back later?" Hermione looked at Penello and asked, "It's not close to the city center."

"Of course it's apparition." Penello said, "It's much more convenient than taking the subway or bus. I can go straight back to the joke store later. I have to work overtime these two days, and business during Christmas. Very good."

"I remember you could take turns after Christmas," Lane said.

"Actually, we are very satisfied with the triple overtime salary plus bonuses at Christmas. You must know that no other place can offer such a high bonus. It happened that Percy was on duty at Christmas arranged by Fudge and the others. I just happened to be able to take advantage of the holiday Hang out with him during the next break." After saying goodbye to Ryan and the others, Penello left.

"It seems that she is quite satisfied with this job." Hermione looked at Penello's back and said, "I can feel that she was happy from the bottom of her heart just now."

"A celebrity once said that employees who are dissatisfied are either because they haven't paid enough money, or because they have been wronged. I try to avoid these things that will make everyone dissatisfied. Now it seems that everyone's morale is very high." He said. The two started going through security with their luggage.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the plane took off.It was a long trip, and it took them a total of eight and a half hours including the transfer time in Moscow. They did not land at Koltsovo Airport in Yekaterinaburg until 08:30 pm local time.

"Hiss, it's so cold." Hermione shivered as soon as she got out of the cabin, even though her body had been strengthened several times, she still felt a kind of cold that penetrated into the bone marrow.

"Put this on." Ryan put a coat on Hermione. "This is winter in Russia. You are not the first person to fall here. Countless famous people have fallen here before."

"Well, I admit I underestimated this place. Like the Corsican or the Austrian." Hermione buttoned up her coat. "Let's hurry to the hotel, I'm cold and hungry."

After leaving the airport, the two of them took a taxi to the hotel they had booked in advance.Fortunately, the language pack that Ryan obtained in the Fallout World a few years ago included Russian, and he gave this language pack to Hermione through soul transmission.Knowing Russian made them have a lot less trouble along the way.When they arrived at the hotel, the two put their luggage away first, and then immediately called the room service to have their dinner brought up.

This time the two chose to live in the same double room, because they were not traveling this time, and mainly had to complete some tasks.In this case, it's better for two people to live together to avoid being scattered when being raided.Although the possibility of this is extremely small, it is better to be prepared.

After dinner, they talked for a while and then quickly fell asleep, because tomorrow is the beginning of the real hard journey.They must recharge their batteries.Prepare to face everything tomorrow.
