Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts
Chapter 428 Ending and Opening
In the early morning of July 1997, the return ceremony had ended, and the people on the streets celebrating the return and welcoming the troops stationed in Hong Kong had also dispersed. The breeze blows, and you can still smell a little smoke from burning fireworks and firecrackers in the air.
In the open-air bar on the roof of the hotel, a waiter behind the bar who had received a large tip was trying hard to look at the young guest who was sitting alone drinking.
The hotel's open-air bar is not open all night like the bars in Lan Kwai Fong, but if guests are willing to pay more, many are willing to stay and work overtime.
As a senior waiter at the bar, Li Qiao has seen too many customers who drink all night long. Maybe they stay up all night to celebrate something happy, or they have a rough life and need to drink to drown their sorrows, or they need a quiet place to do something special in life. major decisions.
For example, the restaurant downstairs was booked tonight by a group of gray-haired old people. I heard that some of them had experienced the age of signing contracts.
Before Li Qiao came to Hong Kong from Guangzhou to work hard, she had heard many stories about Taoist people who could live to be more than a hundred years old.
Just as she yawned, another waiter came out of the back kitchen and placed a plate of peanuts and dried fish on the table where the only guests were.
After Li Xiaojun put away the snacks, he returned behind the bar and stood next to Li Qiao. He asked his wife if she was sleepy and why not go to the back kitchen to take a rest first. Li Qiao shook his head and declined his kindness. Those who receive money must have professional ethics and cannot be lazy.
Li Xiaojun and Li Qiao, the couple who arranged for chefs to serve as guest waiters in the bar, worked overtime together, not because they were afraid that the guests would be unfavorable to Li Qiao when there was no one around. The main reason is that Li Xiaojun is very strong. If a guest is drunk and can't think about it, he can pull the guest back.
But what reassured them both was that the young guest didn't look like he was drowning his sorrows in wine. Judging from the way he looked at the cell phone on the table from time to time, it seemed like he was waiting for some important news.
As a financial and commercial city, it is not uncommon for people to wait for news that may be worth hundreds of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars. There was once a customer in the bar who lost a sum of money because his mobile phone ran out of battery. Nearly 10 million in business.
After that incident, several fully charged power banks were always kept in the bar just in case.
Li Qiao checked the time and guessed that the customer's mobile phone might be low on power, so he took out a power bank and several charging cables of various types and prepared to ask the customer if they needed them.
Looking at the name of his hometown printed on the production address of the power bank, Li Qiao thought that if he had not come to Hong Kong to work hard, maybe he would have been a worker in this factory.
Li Xiaojun stopped Li Qiao who was yawning repeatedly, took the tray containing the power bank and charging cable and walked towards the guests. If you yawn while talking to a customer, it's an accident.
Zhang Xu suppressed the irritation in his heart with half a glass of Amontillado sherry, and then looked at the mobile phone on the table again, only to find that it was still lying there quietly.
An hour ago, Dobby followed Zhang Xu's request before leaving. When the Death Eaters invaded Hogwarts, he immediately went to his villa and sent a text message to Zhang Xu using the mobile phone Zhang Xu had placed there.
Now an hour has passed, and there is still no second text message from Dobby, which makes Zhang Xu feel very irritated.
But all he could do now was wait anxiously.
For tonight, Dumbledore wrote the script, Voldemort wrote the script, and Zhang Xu also wrote his own script.
Three major dramas are being staged at Hogwarts at the same time, and it is inevitable that there will be accidents beyond the script.
He was caught off guard when Dumbledore kicked him off the stage early. All he could do was prepare in advance and place his hopes on the students of Hogwarts.
The main characters in Dumbledore's script are Snape and other members of the Order of the Phoenix, taking Harry Potter with them.
The main characters in Voldemort's script are his Death Eaters.
The actors in Zhang Xu's script are the students at Hogwarts who he has worked hard to train over the past six years.
Unlike elite organizations such as the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters established by Dumbledore and Voldemort, Zhang Xu could not establish an elite organization like them due to his own knowledge structure and identity.
Therefore, Zhang Xu chose to believe in the masses, rely on the masses, mobilize the masses, and organize the masses who had been ignored by Dumbledore and Voldemort to form a force that they could not ignore.
Although Dumbledore has always called on everyone to unite to fight Voldemort, he still takes the elite route. The allies that Dumbledore has contacted over the years are basically all big families. However, most of these families are self-interested elements who "always support the Minister of Magic, and support whoever becomes the Minister." If they host Dumbledore's table today, they might host visiting Death Eaters the next day.
Zhang Xu, who had been studying Dumbledore's actions, had long seen that Dumbledore still underestimated the energy of the students after they organized and mobilized. What he did was just want to use this power as the cornerstone under Harry Potter's feet.
Zhang Xu could only shrug helplessly at this. After all, Dumbledore preached that "love is the strongest magic."
Therefore, Zhang Xu simply took advantage of Dumbledore's use of students to make Harry Potter's wedding dress. After the "Hogwarts Defenders" organization was established, he continued to cultivate and subtly influence the students' attitudes. Thought, let them realize that the people, and only the people, are the driving force for creating world history.
Tonight was the moment Zhang Xu expected the students to take the stage.
Perhaps, with Dumbledore's death, tonight's event is the dividing line between the end of the old era and the beginning of the new era.
It's just that he failed to take command, which made Zhang Xu afraid that something would go wrong.
If there are a large number of casualties in tonight's incident, it will be a huge disaster. It can even knock the morale that is rarely raised to the bottom in an instant.
And there are those people he is familiar with. If there is any damage, he might get angry.
I hope the elixir prepared early in the morning can bring good luck to everyone.
"Sir, do you need to charge your mobile phone?" Li Xiaojun's voice interrupted Zhang Xu's thoughts.
Zhang Xu picked up the phone and took a look. The battery level dropped from two bars to one.
