Hogwarts Crawler

"Ahem--"

Just then, a cough was heard at the door of the living room.

Adam turned around and saw an old man standing at the door. When he saw him, he smiled and nodded.

After greeting the foreigner who broke into the branch in Adam's news but now seemed to get along well with Hong Guo, Old Li walked to Hong Guo and looked at her:

"What are you so excited about?"

While speaking, Old Li glanced across and asked Hong Guo what was going on.

"Oh! Teacher Li, you're here..."

Hong Guo quickly stood up and tidied her clothes. At the same time, she adjusted her mentality and watched Old Li tell her what happened just now-of course, she deleted the part where she and Adam were playing finger-guessing.

"Oh? There is such a thing?"

After listening to the cause and effect, Old Li didn't expect the situation to be more complicated than he thought. He couldn't help but frown and look at the two people behind Adam:

"Are you from the Hong Kong Island Ministry of Magic?"

"Yes!"

The two stood up and responded quickly.

"How do we prove our identity?"

"Our ID number is--"

"Stop, stop, stop. Your ID number in Hong Kong is in an independent file. We can't find it here."

Old Li shook his head and interrupted them.

"Uh..."

The team members couldn't help but look at the captain.

What should we do?

The Hong Kong Ministry of Magic is only nominally under the management of the office. In fact, everyone knows what the situation is. Even the ID numbers are not interoperable. Even if they give other information, can the office verify it?

"This..."

The captain frowned and wanted to say that he knew Hong Kong magic, but this seemed to have nothing to do with them being members of the Ministry of Magic.

Seeing this, Old Li sighed:

"Forget it, this is a serious matter, I will trust you for now, and send this message to the higher-ups first."

Hearing this, the two people from the Hong Kong Island Ministry of Magic breathed a sigh of relief:

"Thank you!"

"During this period, you can stay here first, the branch still has a few guest rooms."

Old Li nodded at them, and Hong Guo immediately volunteered to take them there.

The three of them left the living room, and Old Li sat down opposite Adam, where Hong Guo had sat before.

"As for Mr. Adam... he is really kindhearted. He has come a long way to send our compatriots back. Regardless of whether what they said is true or not, I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the Traditional Culture and Religious Liaison Office."

After saying some polite words, Old Li then said:

"I wonder what arrangements Mr. Adam has next? I am afraid you will need to stay for a while before the matter is over. But please rest assured that we will follow the etiquette of receiving foreign guests in terms of food and lodging. Please understand."

Somewhat beyond Adam's expectation, Old Li looked similar to Huoyun Evil God, but he spoke fluent English.

Even in authentic London accent!

"Understand, understand, no problem, I can cooperate."

Adam smiled and nodded. He had no intention of sending someone back.

Seeing Adam's reaction, Old Li was a little confused. Even if the other party was friendly and easy to talk to because his mother was Chinese, it was a bit too easy to talk to. In any case, they were now putting him under house arrest in disguise.

"But I have a few small conditions, and I hope you can understand."

Old Li smiled and nodded:

"Please tell us, as long as we can do it, we will do our best to cooperate."

"First of all, I heard that the food around here is very unique. I hope you can send a tour guide to take me around here during this period of time."

Old Li didn't react to Adam's conditions for a while:

"...Ah?"

Old Li couldn't help scratching his shiny head, and said with some self-doubt:

"Mr. Adam, what did you say just now?"

"I heard from Miss Hongguo that the clay pot rice, roast meat and porridge around here taste very good. I want to experience it."

Looking at the smile on Adam's face, Old Li couldn't help but be silent for a second:

"Ah...No problem, we will arrange someone to introduce the local customs and customs to you, and you will definitely have a good meal and a good time..."

Adam listened to the last string of fluent words and couldn't help but wonder if the office also took on part of the work of the Cultural and Tourism Bureau.

But that has nothing to do with him, Adam then said:

"Besides that, I wonder if you can help contact some professionals in the identification and protection of cultural relics?"

"...What?"

Speaking of dealing with foreigners, it is not the first time for Old Li to get married. Friendly, unfriendly, weirdAngry, smiling but with a knife hidden in his heart...what kind of foreigners has he not seen?

But the Adam he met today made Old Li feel that his past experience was useless today.

"It's like this, I'm a wizard living in the UK."

UK...

Old Li couldn't help but frown.

Because of the geographical location, their branch has relatively frequent dealings with foreign wizards, so they know more or less about what happened in the UK.

In addition, the news that the UK has been frequently attacked by terrorists some time ago is quite sensational even in the Muggle world.

While feeling sorry for the experience of international friends (puff), the Chinese people who heard the news were all heartbroken about the terrorist attacks on the British Museum and other museums, art galleries and even private collectors.

Originally, even if those treasures were not returned, they were kept there for a thought, and maybe one day they could let the treasures go home.

But now, it's all gone...

The bad news came one after another, and it finally stopped for a while. After that, the news that the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the United States were also destroyed and stolen once again made many old professors of history, archaeology, and cultural relics-related majors black in the eyes.

I still remember that period, the quick-acting heart-saving pills were almost bought at a high price...

Recovering from regret, Old Li sighed:

"I really don't know whether to say that your coming here is a coincidence or an unfortunate one. During this period, all the professionals you want to find in China have gathered together, but I'm afraid they are not in a good state now, so it's not convenient..."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Adam raised his eyebrows in surprise, and couldn't help but look at the other party's shallow thinking that was obviously more excited and recalled something.

Ah, this...

Adam's eyes twitched slightly.

"Alas, Your Excellency may not know that many cultural relics in China have been looted by various countries in the past, including Britain."

Feeling that the other party was relatively friendly to China, Old Li couldn't help but give Adam some eye drops while talking:

"However, just before, the place where these cultural relics were stored in the UK was reduced to ruins in the attack, and the experts were also greatly stimulated by this... Now they are basically in the intensive care unit in the capital."

"I see..."

Adam nodded as if he suddenly realized it, and then couldn't help touching the tip of his nose with his hand:

"Then, if... I mean if... those cultural relics were not actually reduced to ruins along with the place where they were stored..."

The old professor who had fainted with a "click" in Old Li's memory flashed through his mind, and Adam coughed awkwardly:

"Hey, these experts, can they be better?"
