Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1671 The secret words of the goddess (16)

  The Pompidou Center has nothing to do with Louis XV’s mistress, Madame Pompidou. The enthusiastic Muggle Prime Minister hopes that Paris will have a cultural center that is both a museum and a creative center.

The Pompidou Center placed the internal structure that was originally hidden in the wall on the outside of the building, distinguished by various colors, such as green for water pipes, blue for air-conditioning pipes, yellow for electric wires, red for escalators, and white for underground Ventilation shaft.

  Ventilation shafts are found in many large buildings, especially in confined spaces. For example, there are air vents in underground subway stations to blow fresh air into the station.

  However, when there are already ventilation windows on the ceiling, installing a blower in the room seems to have no other explanation other than heating. After all, Paris in the 19th century was very cold, not as hot as it is now. Heating in Paris is divided into central heating and self-heating. Apartment buildings in the Ottoman period were basically in this style, with cellars, drainage pipes and heating on the ground floor. The system will be set in the cellar.

This is generally the residence of wealthy people. They have fallen and sold their houses to other people. Some landlords will continue to use this heating system, and some will use electric heating in each room. As a result, they will turn on electric heating for the whole building. The building was tripped, and even if there was central heating, it was turned on very low, and there was no heat at all.

  Of course, public places like libraries will be heated. When the central library was expanded in 1930, nothing was found underground. Perhaps it was not because there was nothing underground, but because they dug the wrong place.

  Many people have dreams in their hearts, but it takes financial and material resources to turn their dreams into reality. This is something a young man who has nothing but dreams does not have.

At this time, he needed someone to introduce himself to big people with financial and material resources. Da Vinci recommended himself to Sforza to meet, while others met the noblewoman at the salon and passed similar Pompidou A lady like her was introduced to Louis XV.

The same is true for politicians under a democratic system. They want to tell more people about their dreams and gain more understanding and support for him. However, this channel, that is, the media is controlled by newspaper tycoons like Henry Shaw. In his hands, they did not agree to introduce this young man to the public. The public did not know that this ambitious young man could not realize his dream. Instead, the old Henry Shaw promoted the young Henry Shaw to stand in that position. .

  Compared with his brother Langdon who believed in magic and the existence of monsters, Henry Shaw was a son who made his father proud, and he was worthy of showing off in the newspapers. It's a pity that this Senate, who doesn't believe in "monsters", was attacked by a monster he couldn't see, although he had a foresight to call those visitors monsters.

  The white smoke is condensed but not scattered, and there are many golden spots of light flickering in the fog, which looks like stars in the sky.

Severus took a book from the shelf. There was also a light spot on this book. It was a novel written by Victor Hugo. It was called The Smiley Man. In this book, people were entertained by children. Traffickers will perform operations on the faces of kidnapped children, turning a normal person into a monster who can only keep smiling forever.

If Quasimodo is a natural monster, then Gwynplan, the hero of the smiley man, is artificially disabled. People put on an eternal smiley mask on his face and become a tool for performing arts, even if he is himself In infinite pain, the audience was still amused by his performance.

  This is certainly a fabricated story, but people like to watch monsters, and they will pay for tickets to the circus in order to see the monsters, even if the monsters look like ordinary people.

After opening the novel, Severus found that there was a ticket in the book. It looked a lot like a bookmark, but the "star" on this ticket was not the blood curse man Nagini, but It's a Sphinx and Helicopter.

  "Boss!" Gong Saiyi's voice passed through the communication crystal, "Where are you?"

  Severus looked around and said, "A circus venue."

   "Circus?"

   "I'm in the Oval Hall of Richelieu Library." Severus looked up at the metal nameplate above his head. He was standing under "Babylon" at this moment.

  ‘Have you heard the sound of destruction? ’

  Someone in the void seemed to say that it was said by a male ghost standing under the baroque dome in the center of the spiral rotunda in the church of Our Lady of Ann. Severus remembered that the church was playing the organ at that time.

   Just when he was distracted, Gong Saiyi came to the reading area of ​​the hall through Apparition.

  "What did you find?" Gonsai asked.

  Severus raised the novel in Yang's hand, and stood by the pole of the platform on the third floor and asked loudly, "Have you read Victor Hugo's Laughing Man?"

  "Do you have an English version or a French version?" Gong Saiyi asked.

  Severus looked down and found that it was in English.

   "Many people in this library don't understand English." Gong Saiyi said, "Among so many French books, you actually found an English book. How likely do you think this is?"

================================================== =============

   "Meow~"

  Mrs. Lorris dismissed the small dried fish that Alessandro "offered".

  When the composition of the poison is too complicated, sometimes a sheep dung stone is more effective than the antidote formulated after analyzing the composition of the poison, but the current “sheep dung stone” seems unwilling to help. It’s a dog’s job to find things. Poor Mrs. Lorris, even if she is a cat and raccoon, she is still a cat. These humans are actually fantastic, expecting her to work like a dog to find treasures for them, not to mention that she has only experienced two This terrorist attack, who knows what she will encounter later.

After many times of lure to no avail, Alessandro used his keychain as a cat stick, trying to trick Mrs. Lorris into the bait, but he fought with the students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for so many years. How could Mrs. Lorris easily be fooled? Therefore, at the moment Mrs. Lorris looked at Alessandro in contempt.

   "You call her host and ask him to figure out a solution." Haji said, "I remember he seemed to be in a law firm."

   "You mean Filch?" Felix said.

  "Do you know the phone?" Haji asked.

  Alessandro picked up the phone and dialed.

   "Hello." Lawrence's voice came across.

   "Let the strange old man answer the phone." Alessandro said, "His cat doesn't follow orders."

  "When have you heard the cat listen to the owner's order?" Lawrence said with a smile.

   "Does the tiger count as a circle of fire?" Alessandro said, "The tiger is also a big cat."

   "Wait a minute." Lawrence said listlessly, and it didn't take long for Filch to speak on the other side of the phone.

   "Meow~"

  As soon as Filch’s voice was heard, Mrs. Lorris leaned over to the microphone, as if he was right here, rubbing her bald head against the microphone.

  Alessandro put the microphone aside to let the owner and the pet “communicate”. Not long after, Filch even sang.

   "If you are worried." Haji gave his phone number to Alessandro "Call your relatives."

   "Thank you." Alessandro said and answered the phone.

  The call was quickly connected, and Monica’s voice came across.

   "Where are you?" Alessandro asked.

  "A cafe next to the park." Monica said listlessly, "There is an abandoned observatory opposite."

  "Are you not with that kid?"

   "I'm not that stupid." Monica said, "Hurry up! Later he might think I let him dove."

  Monica hung up after speaking.

  At this moment, Mrs. Lorris started to trot.

   "Follow her!" Filch's roar came from the microphone, "Watch my cat, if something happens to her..."

   "Thank you!" Alessandro said, hanging up the phone, and they followed Mrs. Lorris and ran in the direction of the old seminary.
