Hogwarts Homecoming

In the simple office, Professor Brian stood beside the huge sand table, and the flickering candlelight carved a majestic silhouette on his young face.

He just stood there with a smile on his face, but Luna felt a great master's aura coming towards her, making her squint her eyes.

"Good evening, Professor Brian--"

After a little trance, Luna tilted her head, the corner of her mouth slightly raised, and her voice was as clear as a mountain stream.

"Strictly speaking, it's already early in the morning, Luna--"

Amosta nodded to the inexplicably excited employee of the Ministry of Magic, and then gently looked at Luna who jumped to his side and looked at the sand table without hesitation.

"Would you like some tea? I think you must have traveled a long way?"

"Thank you--"

Luna's eyes fell on the sand table, and she was immediately attracted by the circular outer wall, the center of the regular octagonal building area, and a peculiar building.

"But I have to go back to sleep later, Professor Brian, so there's no need--"

Luna's eyes flashed, and she pointed to the peculiarly shaped but magnificent high-rise building in the center of the sand table, which was divided into eight equal areas by the traction line drawn in the center, and asked fascinatedly,

"Can I ask what that is, Professor Brian?"

"Oh , Although the reconstruction plan of Diagon Alley is still in a strictly confidential stage, in my opinion, there is nothing wrong with it."

Amosta did not rush to ask Luna about her purpose. He smiled and said,

"That is the new office building of the Ministry of Magic designed by me. It is slightly taller than the Magical Capitol of the United States and has a total of 108 floors.

Its appearance is like an inverted tornado. In fact, after completion, each floor of the building can indeed rotate around the central support.

Its facade is made of glass with Transfiguration, which can display some policies of the Ministry of Magic. Oh, it can also be used for advertising and so on, and it can also generate income for the Ministry of Magic--"

Luna could easily hear the slight pride in Professor Brian's tone. It can be imagined that after the completion of this unique building, the biography of Professor Brian on the back of the Chocolate Frog card will be updated again.

"But why does the Ministry of Magic have to move?"

Luna was still a little surprised,

"Is there anything wrong with the Ministry of Magic now?"

"Oh, have you seen the Ministry of Magic in several countries built underground? If the staff want to see the sun, they have to rely on the fake images projected by magic."

Amost said disapprovingly.

Indeed, this matter is a bit strange when you think about it carefully.

Luna nodded, her eyes scattered on the positive sand table.

With her intelligence, she immediately realized that Professor Brain had no intention of restoring the destroyed Diagon Alley to its original appearance.

But he wanted to build another 'magic city' on its ruins!

In addition to the 'Storm Building' of the Ministry of Magic located in the center of the magic city, the eight divided areas have their own styles.

Luna recognized at a glance what the area in the south was used for.

Compared with the regular buildings in other areas, the buildings in this area are all low-rise buildings facing the street, and their architectural style is similar to the destroyed Diagon Alley. I think this will be the new business center for wizards.

"Diagon Alley plays an irreplaceable role in the lives of the people in the British wizarding world, so it and the new building of the Ministry of Magic, and--"

Amosta pointed the wand in his hand at the other two areas,

"The passenger station in the residential area and the freight station in the industrial area are listed in the first phase of the project."

Luna nodded, still looking at the sand table with curiosity.

She found that there was an area that was obviously a residential area, but the building model was much more luxurious than other residential areas, and the main body of each building was in a landscape garden with a large area.

"That is."

Luna's lips moved slightly as she was fascinated.

"Oh, it's for the wealthy people in the magic world--"

Amosta raised his eyebrows slightly,

"It's adjacent to the office CBD, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and a sanatorium combining medical care and nursing care is specially designed. Each building is extremely expensive and the number is limited. After completion, the company will recruit a special security team to protect the security of this area.

Compared with ordinary residential buildings, the conditions for purchasing these private estates are harsh.

If you want to buy, you must have your own workshop or company in the British magic world. The Ministry of Magic will assess the tax amount of these companies and workshops and their contribution to the employment of ordinary people.

Only after meeting the above review, you are eligible to participate in the lottery election--"

"Lottery election?"

"Oh, it's a lottery--"

Amosta smiled and led Luna to stroll around the sand table ,

"If you are lucky enough and get the qualification to buy a house, you must also pay the full amount of the house in advance within a certain period of time. Of course, if you don't have enough gold, Gringotts will also be happy to provide you with a loan-"

"In other words, get the money first and then start building those houses"

Luna stared blankly at Professor Braine, who seemed to have everything under control, with a dazed look in her eyes,

"Will anyone really be willing to do so? Those who own property have their own villas and manors, don't they?"

Bang bang--

Amostha tapped the edge of the huge sand table with his fingers, smiling deeply,

"You don't understand the mentality of those rich people, Luna, they will be happy to pay for this emerging magic city. Oh, I think there will even be many wealthy foreign wizards who will try their best to get the qualification to buy"

Like appreciating a work of art, Amosta looked at the planning map that he led but also referred to the opinions of many high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Magic.

"The new Diagon Alley will no longer be limited to the wizard commercial street and the messy industrial area. It will be a modern magic city with multifunctional modules including the new Ministry of Magic building, ordinary people's residences, high-end villas, manors, wizard business centers, office centers, industrial parks, magical creatures nature reserves, magic hospitals and large Quidditch competition arenas!"

Amosta stopped, staring at his masterpiece with burning eyes, and his passionate voice resounded throughout the office.

Luna, who was following behind him, looked at him with a trance.

For no reason, she suddenly had an idea in her mind.

Although Voldemort's resurrection broke the peace of the British wizarding world and brought about earth-shaking changes in the lives of thousands of wizards.

But Professor Braine did not sit alone in the city of sorrow for this. His focus was always on a higher dimension!

Professor Blaine showed such courage and foresight that Luna thought that even Professor Dumbledore was a little inferior!

"Of course, we can't ignore the objective problems-"

Slightly calming down his excited emotions, Amosta smiled gently like spring breeze,

"Building this magic city may not be something that can be completed overnight. Even if the Ministry of Magic after Minister Bones can still fully support and cooperate, it may take 20 to 30 years."

Amosta didn't care about his image, half of his butt was on the edge of the sand table, and his extremely tolerant eyes enveloped Luna,

"So, even if the future is bright, we still need to pay attention to the difficulties we are facing at this stage."

Luna immediately pulled her eyes out of the sand table, she knew she should say her intention.

Where to start?

A series of things passed through her mind, Luna took a breath, and her eyes became ethereal again,

"Professor Blaine, I met Lucius Malfoy tonight."
