Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

Vol 2 Chapter 655: Rebuilding Hogsmeade

When Brian Braddock first came out of the fireplace in the Three Broomsticks bar, he thought he had gone in the wrong place. There was a huge difference between this place and the time he had come not long ago.

The dim light and alcohol-filled air are gone, replaced by bright sunlight and chilly fresh air.

But he was relieved soon, because he saw that the wall that the bar used to face the street was gone, and the place where it used to be walls, doors, and shop windows was now piled up with a lot of debris.

A man with a thick bandage on his head and face was picking up a broken broomstick from the rubble, and using a spell to repair him back.

When Braddock walked over, he found that this person was the owner of the bar, Ms. Rosemerta. When Braddock greeted her, she did not respond, but blankly looked for someone else who was the sign of the bar in the ruins. A broom.

When Braddock walked to the street, he and many of his companions who came to support were shocked. The originally quiet and peaceful village became a broken wall, and the smell of burnt wood could not dissipate for a long time.

He no longer remembers how he and the Aurors from Essex County went to the Pig’s Head to report, and then how he was assigned to work. When he recovered, he was already standing with a few colleagues. In front of a piece of rubble.

In addition to them, there is also a witch wearing a black robe and a pointed hat with a black veil, looking for something to use from the ruins.

Braddock got up there and said to the witch, "Madam, we are the Auror sent by the Ministry of Magic to help you."

Helen in mourning clothes whispered "thank you".

It is easy to repair small items with magic, but the difficulty of repairing a completely damaged house increases exponentially. As for the houses that had been burnt down, there was no way to tie Dumbledore and Voldemort together. So what everyone has to do now is to clean up the ruins and build new houses.

It is very fast to clean up the ruins by magic. Braddock and the Aurors and Helen used various spells to pile all kinds of useless construction **** on the side of the road, and Helen also cleaned up the items that can be used in the ruins. The next focus is together.

Then a truck came over and transported the construction waste to the garbage pit outside for dumping.

Many wizards of Muggle origin were almost shattered by the strange painting style when they saw trucks loaded with trash driving on the streets of Hogsmeade.

In addition to the wizards who supported the reconstruction of Hogsmeade, Galeries Lafayette also made a lot of effort.

It can be said that Galeries Lafayette, who drove an ambulance in World War II, knew better than the wizards of the Ministry of Magic that reconstruction work should be carried out.

At noon on the day after the "Second Sixth Bombing" took place, a group of engineers and related vehicles were transported by train to the railway station in Hogsmeade.

At the moment, Bell, who is acting as the driver of the truck, is loading the garbage from the side of the street into the truck with his wizard assistant, Mr. Arthur Weasley.

If it weren't for Mr. Weasley's constant wondering if he could sell a truck to his home and remodel it, Bell thought the chubby wizard would be pretty good.

After Bell drove away, Helen stood blankly in front of the open space that was his home, not knowing what to do next.

"Helen?" A voice rang beside her.

Helen turned her head to see the person, and said in surprise: "Autumn? Why are you here?"

Zhang Qiu and Helen once stayed at Hogwarts together, and they knew each other.

"Now Gringotts has established a special fund, which provides free housing construction and repair services to residents of Hogsmeade damaged houses." Qiu explained to Helen, "The money for this fund comes from the Queen of England and Some donations from wizards. I am now communicating on behalf of Gringotts and the residents of Hogsmeade."

Having said this, he noticed that Helen Qiu paused in mourning clothes, and then said cautiously: "Look, if you have time, you can choose a new house you like."

Helen took the color picture booklet that Qiu handed over, and stood there without speaking for a long time.

Qiu had encountered this situation many times in Hogsmeade today, and she left after whispering "please sorrow" to Helen.

At this time, Scrimgeour was receiving a guest from the Muggle World in the Pig's Head Bar.

Old Rodney brought a middle-aged man who was a little fat, and the middle-aged man was negotiating with Scrimgeour.

"In addition to donating this material and money for the reconstruction of Hogsmeade, Her Majesty also hopes to build an orphanage in Hogsmeade for the children who have lost their parents." Viscount Hood said to Scrimgeour. Her Majesty the Queen is the official guardian of all children in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, so she is obliged to build a warm and safe home for these poor children."

Scrimgeour quickly agreed to the request made by the butler of Lafayette on behalf of Lafayette. Although he knew that it was more than just building an orphanage, he couldn't refuse it.

Rebuilding Hogsmeade requires a large amount of building materials and food for the homeless victims. At this time, only the Muggle government can provide Hogsmeade with these in a short period of time.

Now the railway station is full of materials that have just arrived, but the people who guard the materials have forbidden the Ministry of Magic to approach these "Queen's property" for half a step on the grounds that the cleanup of the ruins has not been completed.

After leaving the Pig’s Head Bar, Old Rodney and Viscount Hood were walking down the streets of Hogsmeade. Old Rodney asked, "Will you go to Hogwarts to see your sister later?"

Viscount Hood hadn't answered yet, he only heard a "dididi" shrill horn not far away, frightening Viscount Hood and old Rodney hurriedly to the side.

After a full-loaded truck was speeding past, Viscount Hood said to Old Rodney with a little embarrassment: "I want to see her by myself."

Old Rodney smiled helplessly, and then walked out of the village with Viscount Hood.

It was lunch time, and the scent of onion soup was wafting from the shelter outside Hogwarts.

The source of the scent is a row of canopies next to the resettlement site. There is the kitchen of the resettlement site. Many victims come here spontaneously to help prepare three meals a day for the victims and the Aurors who came to support. In addition to the victims in the kitchen, there are also volunteers from other parts of the UK, such as Mrs. Weasley and Mrs. Lupin.

In order to avoid chaos caused by a large number of people eating together, the victims of the resettlement site started their meals at eleven o'clock. At twelve o'clock, rescuers came from the village to have lunch.

At this time, Zhang Xu was having a meal here with Rodney.

This morning, a part of the wounded who had stabilized their injuries went to a large hospital near Edinburgh to be placed in a large hospital near Edinburgh through the night qi-drawn carriage that transported students during Hogwarts school holidays. Zhang Xu and Rodney were responsible for the coordination of this matter. In the afternoon, they had to send some family members of the injured.

Zhang Xu took a plate from the table, then followed a group of children and began to line up to receive the meal.

Since many adults are engaged in reconstruction work, a few witches set up a tent and opened a temporary kindergarten, and then gathered the children who were left alone to manage them.

Now these children are coming over for lunch under the leadership of these witches.

There are not many things to choose for lunch here. The meat is bacon, chicken drumsticks and fried fish. Potatoes are divided into mashed potatoes and French fries. There is only one kind of mixed salad for vegetables. Bread and cakes are both fist-sized, and the last is a hot pot. Steaming onion soup.

It happened to be the wife he rescued from under the bed that was pressed by the collapsed roof that day that Zhang Xu was serving food. Her face is much better than when she was terrified at the time.

Zhang Xu handed over two dinner plates, and recognized Zhang Xu’s wife while she was making dishes and asked: "Mr. Zhang, are you free these two days?"

Zhang Xu looked at her in surprise. She shouldn't know her. How did she know herself?

The other party saw Zhang Xu's question, and she said: "Mrs. Weasley told me. When we were chatting, I told her about how you rescued my daughter and me."

"I want to take a photo with you as a souvenir with my daughter."

Zhang Xu nodded and said, "No problem, I'll come to you when I'm done with it later."

Soon, Zhang Xu returned to the long table and chairs nearby with two lunches that were slightly more than others. These are said to be tables and chairs, but in fact they were cut back from a nearby forest with big trees of different diameters broken in half and placed there.

"Maggy, this is your lunch." Zhang Xu put a plate in front of Maggie McGonagall.

"Thank you." Maggie is feeding a two-year-old kid.

"How is your house?" Zhang Xu asked. Last year, Professor McGonagall's relatives moved to Hogsmeade.

"Although the house was destroyed, my father, uncle and I ran out in time." Maggie replied.

"It's okay if people are okay." Zhang Xu didn't bother Maggie, who was taking care of the children, and took his lunch to Rodney.

"Why do you have more than mine?" Rodney said to Zhang Xu dissatisfied.

"If you eat it, it will really turn into Rhodes oil." Zhang Xu put his bowl of onion soup in front of Rodney as he said it~www.readwn.com~ Then I will give this to you All right. "

After so many years, Zhang Xu still stayed away from onion soup, basically he would not touch it except for the hibiscus.

"Yo, the relationship between you two is really good."

Zhang Xu looked at the visitor with a dark face, and the corners of his mouth kept cramping.

"Hello, Mr. Rodney, have you eaten?"

After a brief introduction and greetings, old Rodney and Viscount Hood sat beside Rodney. However, if it weren't for today's lunch in front of Zhang Xu and Rodney, it would be a bit like a three-room trial.

After a few people chatted for a while, Zhang Xu remembered something. He asked old Mr. Rodney: "Sir, I don't know about the last zombie incident. Do you have any measures to deal with it?"

Old Rodney thought for a while, and then said, "It's not a secret, it doesn't hurt to tell you."

"According to the investigation, the zombie virus this time is different from the last time. This time the virus is transmitted through drinking water and will become ill after drinking it for a while."

"Huh?" Zhang Xu frowned, "So are there any preventive measures?"

"Just boil the water before drinking." Old Rodney said.

"It makes sense." Zhang Xu couldn't refute.

"Then how did you explain this to the people?" Zhang Xu continued to ask, "I think it is difficult to block news on this matter, right?"

During this period of time, Zhang Xu didn't care much about the news of ordinary people, so he didn't know how the British government explained this to the people.

"If the outbreak is small, just find excuses to fool around." Old Rodney said, "The few places that can't be concealed are that the chemical weapons dropped by the Germans during World War II were not discovered in time and then leaked. Up."
