First Wizarding World War

Charlotte has left these old colleagues behind, and the opportunities for him to interact with these people will become less and less.

Although a few months ago, he was only a first-level clerk, waiting for promotion, but now he is the twenty-eighth-level second-level clerk, a position that these people can hardly hope to achieve in their lives.

Although in the clerical position, there is a chance for promotion once every three years, there will always be interruptions of one kind or another. It is especially difficult to make the leap from clerk to chief clerk. These former colleagues have worked hard for twenty years, and it is not easy to be promoted to the first-level chief clerk.

Only a very small number of elites can become the second-level or third-level clerk before retiring. No matter how high the position is, you need luck.

As we all know, people from ordinary families generally do not have good luck in officialdom.

Charlotte has obtained his identity documents, and he now has several options.

Of course, the most conscientious option is to go to Embassy Street. Not only are there embassies from other countries, officials stationed by the Fars Empire will also receive "training" there, with free food and accommodation.

Charlotte decisively chose the most comfortable one. He asked Mrs. Nancy to drive the carriage to Gorgias University and went on a date with Anne.

This time he came earlier and waited for a while before Annie finished class. Charlotte originally wanted to propose having a cup of coffee first, then dinner, and then the sideshow, but Anne went instead and whispered: "Let's go to your mansion?"

Charlotte was about to tell Mrs. Nancy to go to No. 58 Elysée Garden Avenue when she heard Anne say first: "Ms. Nancy, go to No. 221B Baker Street!"

Charlotte was slightly surprised, and Anne smiled sweetly and asked, "Have you not been to the mansion awarded by the Queen in Val-de-Oise?"

It suddenly dawned on Charlotte that he had never been back to this mansion. No. 58 Elysée Pastoral Avenue was only considered a residence, but whatever the queen had given him as a reward, it was still considered a residence.

Charlotte said happily: "It's true that I haven't been there yet. I didn't expect that the first time I went to this mansion would be with Miss Anne. This is of extraordinary significance."

Anne was very happy when she heard this, and the two of them held each other's hands unknowingly.

On the way, Charlotte remembered that she had not gone to collect the key yet, but she remembered that Anne knew how to pick locks, so she did not break the romantic atmosphere.

The carriage soon arrived at Baker Street. It is a small street, very quiet and elegant. The whole street is filled with apartments and there are no independent houses. However, the residences on Baker Street are better than those in Charlotte in terms of buildings and services. Renting a thrift apartment is much better. No. 221B is on the first floor of an apartment at the end of Baker Street. It has an independent door to Baker Street, so there is no need to go through the apartment door.

Anne got off the carriage, took out a set of keys, skillfully opened the door of No. 221B, and waved to Charlotte. Charlotte was a little stunned, but she accepted it all skillfully and said, "Have you already received the key for me?"

Anne whispered: "I urged, otherwise I don't know when this mansion will go through the process."

"However, Charlotte, when you received the Queen's reward, you were only a twenty-ninth-level first-class minister. There is no way the mansion you received could be bigger."

Charlotte silently calculated that Baker Street was very close to Gorgias University and 58 Sixth Avenue, and not far from Central Avenue.

In other words, this is a private rendezvous place chosen by Anne, and she may even have used the power of the Earl's family to influence the Queen's reward and arrange it.

The location of Baker Street is very special. It is very close to the center of Val d'Oise, so although it is not famous, it is very popular among the imperial officials because it is very convenient for them to commute to and from get off work.

Because of this, mansions in this area are in very short supply and are generally not awarded to low-level civil servants. Low-level civil servants also prefer a larger residence rather than choosing Baker Street.

However, these are apartment-like residences, so there is no place to park carriages. All carriages can only be parked at the nearby carriage parking lot. Of course, taking a public carriage is also a good option.

Because horses are not allowed, the whole street looks very clean.

Charlotte entered No. 221B, and the first thing she saw was the magical portrait hanging in the center of the living room. Miss Anne of Breton was wearing a hunting suit, with a heroic figure and a smile. She was using a grand Court etiquette, a welcoming gesture.

Although Miss Anne had a beautiful face and the movements in this portrait were quite pleasing to the eye, Charlotte couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva and asked in a low voice: "Is every portrait different?"

Annie nodded and said, "I specially selected five sets of clothes that you should like the most, and ordered the largest picture frame overnight. Do you like it?"

Charlotte thought for a while, maybe she would like it better if it was black stockings, but unfortunately, neither the Old World nor the New World had such a thing as silk stockings, and he almost wanted to change his career to become an inventor.

"I like it! I really like it."

This small mansion is actually divided into two floors. There are stairs inside. There is only one living room, one study room, and five residences. The living room and study room are all downstairs, and the living rooms are all upstairs. There is no kitchen, but the apartment building itself provides a la carte meals. Serve.

Charlotte and Anne walked around the room. He found that the entire No. 221B had been renovated and the furniture was new. He asked Anne and the answer was true.

Anne helped add these.

Charlotte knocked on a small copper bell in the corner of the hall. This was a not-too-expensive but very interesting alchemical device. Once it rang, the other bell would also ring. Sure enough, not long after, the housekeeper of the apartment came to the door and asked politely, "Excuse me, sir, what do you need?"

Charlotte smiled and said, "Please help me order two cups of coffee and two sets of meals, and buy a barrel of beer and five bottles of fruit wine."

He paid one forre and said, "The rest is a tip."

The housekeeper of the apartment left happily.

Charlotte knew a long time ago that many high-end apartments have similar services, but the savings club apartment he rented was not high-end enough. No. 58, Elysee Field Street was a completely different type of residence. Today was her first time trying it, and she found it quite novel and interesting.

Anne also wanted to stay with Charlotte in a corner where no one would disturb her for a while. But before, Charlotte's residence was too far away. Going to 58 Chrysler Avenue would take a whole day to do nothing, and half of the time was wasted on the carriage.

Charlotte was chatting with Anne while standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling alchemical crystal glass window, admiring the quiet street scene of Baker Street. Suddenly, he frowned and saw a familiar figure passing by in a hurry.
