Chapter 440 Department of Mysterious Affairs (seeking subscription, seeking collection, seeking tickets)
Lane and six others stood at the entrance to the Ministry of Magic's Department of Mysteries, but the first level of 12 doors stopped them here.In this case, the trial by trial proposed by Harry was the only feasible solution.

"Harry, what's it like inside the door you're looking for?" Ginny asked.

"It can only be said to be a, um - like a room that glows." Harry said as he walked to the door directly opposite him, holding his wand tightly in his right hand and pushing hard with his left hand.

The door was opened easily, without the expected attack.After experiencing the darkness of the first room, everyone felt that this square room with many chandeliers hung by golden chains was very bright.The house is very empty, except for a table that may be used for recording, there is only a huge glass water tank filled with dark green liquid in the center of the room.

This water tank is not so much a water tank as it is more like a transparent glass swimming pool.Many white things are swimming in the liquid of jasmine.

"Brain? And it's a human brain." Hermione, whose parents are dentists, quickly recognized what was in the water tank. "Why are these things raised here?"

"Just like scientists outside study the brain, wizards should also hope to discover our own secrets by studying the brain. The only difference is that magic keeps these brains alive, making it easier to study. As for appearing here It's easy to explain, isn't the brain research department outside also concentrated in those top scientific institutions?" Ryan explained to Hermione in a small voice, but everyone in the room heard him.

"Get out of here, everyone," said Harry, after looking at the brain, which looked like a slimy cauliflower. "Not this one, let's try another door."

They quickly returned to the black hallway, and before the door was closed, Ryan knocked on the door with a ring, leaving a silver flame sign on the door.

The door clicked shut, followed by another loud rumble, and the walls began to spin rapidly again.But this time, there was a small blur of silvery white in the midst of the blue.When everything was fixed, the silver-white flame mark was still jumping there, showing that they had tried that door.

"That's a good idea." Harry said, holding up his wand and pushing open the door opposite him again, and the others still followed behind.

This room may be a little bigger than the one just now, and it is also rectangular.In the dim light they saw that the middle of the house was sunken in a great stone pit about twenty feet deep.The room is surrounded by stone steps that sink down step by step around the big pit, like stone benches.They stood on the top row, and the steps descended at a steep angle, much like a gymnasium.

In the middle of the stone pit is a raised stone platform, on which stands an arch, which looks very old and dilapidated, but there is no wall support around it.Over the arch hung a tattered black curtain or drapery, which, though there was no breeze in the cold air, fluttered lightly, as if it had just been touched.

"Is this the intersection of the main world and the death world?" Ryan could feel a little bit of the cold air with the rules of death seeping out of the door as soon as he entered the room.As someone who has been studying various rules recently, this breath is very obvious. "The opposite of the door should be the world of death corresponding to the Emerald Dream." He suddenly remembered the information he had read before.

According to legend, this gate is the first building of the Ministry of Magic. To be precise, the construction of the Ministry of Magic actually took this arch as the core and slowly expanded to the periphery.And this place was originally just a group of wizards studying the most secret knowledge of the wizarding world in this special environment, and then gradually became today's Department of Mysteries.They are only nominally affiliated with the Ministry of Magic, but in reality everything operates independently.

Ryan deeply suspects that there is no one here today, because those in the Department of Mysteries may have seen everything that will happen through prophecy in advance, so they avoided today's chaos in advance.

If it wasn't for Ryan still thinking about today's business, he even had the urge to just sit here and study it.Ryan felt that if he could study the rules where the rules of the two worlds conflict, the progress would be several times that of other places.

"Who's there?" said Harry suddenly, jumping onto the stone bench on the next step.But no one answered, but the curtain still fluttered.

Ryan immediately rushed forward and pulled him back. "Sirius can't be there. Behind that door is death. This house was used by the Ministry of Magic as a death chamber until an agreement was signed with those dementors. Before the agreement was signed, the death row would be removed from here." Push through the door. Pass through the curtain, and people will disappear from our world completely, and no one has ever come back alive from behind that door."

"But I heard a voice inside that attracted me." After Harry finished speaking, he looked back at the others, but the others indicated that they hadn't heard anything.

"Only after the death of someone close to you can you hear the voice inside, and you are the only one who meets this requirement." Ryan twisted Harry's upper body, and turned his head to face him.He stared into Harry's bewildered eyes. "I know the pull of this door is strong for you, because you have lost a loved one. But please think about what we are here for?"

"Damn it." Harry slapped himself violently to wake himself up, he thought that Sirius was captured by Voldemort, he might be suffering and his life was in danger, but he was looking at this door.

"Let's go." Under Harry's leadership, they returned to the black circular room.Ryan also printed a silver flame logo on it.

The wall spins again, then stops.Harry picked a door at random, walked over to it and pushed it, but it didn't move.Lane touched the door causing dozens of bright red runes to flow onto the door, but the runes were all pushed back by the force on the door.It was only at this time that he realized that an extremely complicated magical power was used to lock the door.

"It won't open, but I don't think it's the door. Harry can go through all the doors in his dreams." The wall spun once more before stopping after marking it.

Harry was a little desperate at this time, and he repeated the previous process again.But after pushing the door open this time, Harry's expression suddenly became excited.

"Here it is!" said Harry excitedly, before rushing in first.Others can only quickly follow.

"I just don't know what's waiting ahead this time." Ryan sighed softly, and was the last one to enter the room.

It was the brightest room anyone had ever seen since entering the Ministry of Magic, and there was a constant busy ticking all around, like thousands of little feet walking.Looking around, all kinds of clocks are hung in the gaps between the bookshelves, or placed on the tables as long as the room. The light is a tall bell-shaped crystal at the far end of the room.

Under Harry's leadership, everyone quickly walked through the narrow gap between the tables, walked through the bell-shaped crystal case, and came to the only door behind.

"I think we're here." He turned his head to look at everyone, and found that everyone was nervously pulling out their wands.And Ryan and Hermione even held a strange golden glass bottle in their left hands. .

"Okay, let's go in." Harry wanted to say something, but his mind was in a mess and he didn't know what to say, so he could only wave his hand to signal everyone to move forward.
