Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1150 The Story of Paris (3)

As a cultural city, the Paris National Library has far more readers than other cities. The reading room is almost full of people, but it is a pity that it is modern in style and far less gorgeous than Notre Dame Cathedral and Louvre. Naturally, tourists are not attracted.

  Because it is far from the city center, the outside of the library looks very desolate, coupled with the manic wind, it looks like it is abandoned.

  But around the library, a new city is rapidly being built.

  Gucci’s owner, François Pinault, originally planned to build his own museum in Paris, but unfortunately this plan was delayed by the procrastinated city government. In April, he announced the transfer of the museum to the Grand Canal in Venice.

  Even if you want to find another job, you must first find your next home and say that François made all the preparations before making the announcement.

  Why did Rose dump Carl and choose Jack?

  Perhaps it was because she saw the empty soul in Carl Jinyu's outer body.

  The feeling of the library is always quiet, using the poet's way of describing: if there is heaven, it should be like a library.

   Strangely, Pomona didn’t feel the quietness in this modern place. She felt a kind of restlessness, which made her very upset.

  The expansion of the library is just a project of real estate development. It should cost a lot of money, create a lot of job opportunities, and also allow some officials to fill their pockets. In short, it has nothing to do with reading.

  This feeling didn't improve until she came to the old part of the King's Library.

  During the Industrial Revolution, Paris used to be a city on par with London. When old and modern collide, it does not necessarily mean that one party will be destroyed.

  In this round hall, there are no prophets and angels painted on the dome, but a large glass window with a steel frame structure, which allows natural light to shine in to the greatest extent.

  The large central window is surrounded by 22 small windows. The rotunda is three stories high, each floor is a ring-shaped bookcase, and the reading area is covered with blue carpet.

  She can feel a kind of "magic power" that makes her want to stop.

  Schopenhauer once said that the Latin patientia "patience" is related to pain.

  Patience is so slow, lazy, listless, and a woman's talent.

  But if the world is made extremely bad, patience becomes extremely useful and necessary.

  Harry is sometimes very impatient. Sirius gave him the double-sided mirror as a gift. He didn't expect to use it to contact Sirius before acting recklessly.

  The wizarding world is not a Muggle world that pursues efficiency. He will always remember when he slows down and thinks carefully.

  Hurrying into the trap of getting into the enemy easily, war is sometimes more patience, and rash moves will cause confusion. If Severus hadn't confided in the news, Harry and the others would have been caught by Lucius and Voldemort.

  They are just teenagers. Young people tend to act impulsively. This is easily exploited by older adults who can control their impulses and consider things more comprehensively.

  Since the old fool himself was confused, he misunderstood Harry as a Horcrux, and Pomona didn't bother to chase after him. What's more, that kid is full of weirdness. Harry not only knows how to speak snake tongue, but also has the ability to sense Horcruxes, and the prophecy that Sybil Trelawney made in Harry's third grade, compared with Ah Unfounded guesses, Pomona's unfounded guesses are even less credible.

  A gust of wind blew behind her, and it made a whine of "Woo", which sounded like the whimper of an innocent soul deep underground, making this early summer chilly.

  The skeleton wall of the catacombs can't help appearing in her mind.

  In the first three years of the French Revolution, that is, in 1786, there was a plague in Paris. People are used to being buried in the cemetery of the church in the neighborhood. In order to bury the new deceased, all the bones in the ground were exhumed, as if the bones were overflowing.

  Because of this, Louis XVI ordered the priests to use the former quarry as an ossuary and transfer all the bones from the cemetery here. Among them are the mistress of Louis XV, Madame Pompadour.

  It’s just that she may have some privileges, and she doesn’t need to be disassembled like other skeletons. According to the types of bones, she is relatively complete.

  Metro, underground waterway, catacombs, no wonder there are no tall buildings in the center of Paris.

  The foundation is broken, no matter how brilliant the building on the ground is, it will eventually collapse.

To complete the stacking of six million or seven million bones requires not only courage, but also a calm heart. It is not the kind of "adventurer" who ran to the catacombs to explore the secrets in the middle of the night to prove their boldness. .

  In 1871, the Paris Commune uprising failed. Many rebel workers hid in the catacombs and escaped. Government troops arrived after hearing the wind, and they searched around inside with torches.

  The stones in the quarry are used for Notre Dame Cathedral and medieval buildings. It is said that it is 200 miles long. Now only 2 kilometers are open to visit. Other places are still shrouded in darkness.

  In the eyes of the rebel workers, neither bones nor ghosts are as scary as government forces.

  Man finally defeated the **** of death and became the most terrifying animal in the world.

  I heard that the French resistance organization had also been neighbors to these corpses during World War II, and set up its headquarters here secretly. It seems that the freedom and dignity of the French people must be won by the people themselves.

  The French are generally disappointed with the government. France is regressing. Let alone regaining its position as the European hegemon, it is good to keep its position in the European Union.

  Perhaps the French Revolution was not the fault of Marie Antoinette alone. After all, when the people were in plague, famine, and poverty, she was not the only nobleman who was singing and dancing in Versailles. French finances have been declining since Louis XIV. Louis XV raised so many mistresses, but he did not have the money to marry a daughter. He did not make any plans for the marriage of Princess Louis.

  But she did not, like Theodora, the Queen of the Eastern Roman Emperor Justinian, stayed firmly when the emperor wanted to flee the capital in a hurry to complete the constitutional monarchy. This was her fault.

  I heard that decapitated Mary has a hobby. She likes to play the role of milkmaid with the ladies in the small peasant palace given to her by Louis XVI. If she has time to read two more books, she will not be left behind by learning how to be a queen.

It is not incomprehensible that Justinian would choose a prostitute to be a queen, because with Theodora’s support, Justinian not only had a strong army, but this army was absolutely loyal to him, not only resisting him The Persians attacked, even if the king’s order required them to raise butcher knives at the rioting civilians.

  Theodora was also a queen to death. Mary couldn't survive by running away, so why not give it a go?

  It was Joan of Arc who brought Charles VII back to Paris and ended the British rule of Paris during the Hundred Years' War.

   is also a woman who made the King of France lose his crown.

  Marie Antoinette must have never heard of this motto: Purple robe is the most beautiful shroud.

  This is the reason why women want to read books. It is no wonder that the code promulgated by Napoleon after he became the throne weakened women’s financial rights.

  It’s just how wise the man who has obtained the financial power is not to see, he still loves to take care of his mistress so much.

  Grindelwald may be good at speaking, but unfortunately no one thought of saving him after he became a prisoner.

  Albus may not be perfect, but he has gained the loyalty of many people.

  He taught her to be a simple woman, even if she has money to wear gorgeous clothes, she still wears a patched witch hat.

The Sorting Hat is actually an old hat, but it determines the fate of how many people.

  "Hello, madam." Just as Pomona was visiting this reading room, a young man with green eyes and red hair looked at her stunnedly and said to her in English, "May I know what your name is?"

  Pomona smiled at him and ignored him.

   "You may not remember me, the last time we met at Westminster Abbey." The young man said behind her, "I followed you into an alley."

  Pomona stopped.

  Her memory quickly reversed, and indeed there was a person with a black umbrella sitting at the door of the alley.

  She was also wearing high-order clothes that day, and a beggar might think it had the opportunity to follow her far behind.

  Until she met Severus who was hiding in the alley, he took her away with Death Eater flying to the grave where their daughter was buried.

   "I remember your hair was silvery white back then."

   "Who are you?" Pomona looked back at him.

  The young man stretched out his hand towards her.

   "I am Nick LeMay's disciple, Carnelian, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
