Hogwarts Summoning Guide

Chapter 232 Let the bullets fly for a while

Seeing that there was nothing he could do to help in the conference room, Bai Lin yawned and went back to his room to rest.

After Yan Nishuang and the others drank coffee, they were in high spirits and were ready to fight until dawn. Bai Lin wanted to persuade them to have a good sleep. After all, the information in their hands was only second-hand. If it could be useful, the British would have solved the case long ago. Now,

All he can do is actually let the bullets fly for a while. But it seems that he is not very convincing. It is strange that others can listen to him.

When he woke up, the waiter brought breakfast, which was pure Western style, toast, milk, bacon, and a bowl of oatmeal, which made Bai Lin very helpless. Because house elves were restricted by the relevant laws of the international wizarding community and could not take them with them.

Coming to China, Bai Lin, who was already familiar with Phoenix's service, was not used to it, and he really missed a Chinese breakfast, steamed buns, soy milk and tea eggs, that would be perfect.

Sure enough, when they walked to the conference room, Yan Nishuang and Nicole already had dark circles under their eyes, while Alex was already lying on the conference table and fast asleep. It seemed that there was no progress in the whole night. Bai Lin asked Yan Nishuang

After sending her back to the room, she hugged her in the corridor and told her to rest assured. Yan Nishuang obviously saw that Bai Lin was planning to go out for a walk, and repeatedly told him to keep a low profile and not get into trouble, just like an elder sister told her younger brother, and like a wife.

husband.

Bai Lin laughed and put on a more casual short-sleeved shirt. It was sunny outside today and the temperature went up to 32 degrees. It was much hotter than London. He put on a baseball cap and sunglasses and was already chatting with a

Ordinary tourists are no different.

Walking out of the hotel door, I realized that this place is not far from Victoria Harbor and can be reached on foot. I asked a passerby where the nearest Standard Chartered Bank was. The passerby didn't speak Mandarin. In the end, I had to speak English to communicate, so it was considered close.

A spectrum.

Opening an account, saving money, and looking at the retro passbook and securities account opening information in his hand, Bai Lin was quite emotional. He had traveled back from the original world more than 20 years ago and was already used to using his smartphone to deal with financial issues.

He said he had to queue up at the stock exchange to buy stocks, and he suddenly lost interest. Anyway, the financial crisis was still a year or two away, and there was plenty of time to wait until the case was solved.

He was walking on the streets of Xiangjiang, and the popular TV series "Big Era" was still broadcast on the TV on the street. It was this TV series that made young people in the East know and fall in love with stocks. Some people made a fortune by betting all their money, and some people

He took the risk and jumped off the building to his death, which is very sad.

Bai Lin once traveled to Xiangjiang in his original world. At that time, Xiangjiang was more modern and clean, but now it just seems to have a retro atmosphere.

He strolled to Yau Ma Tei, which has a more local feel. There was a lot of people coming and going here. There were many time-honored shops on the roadside, which had a very smokey atmosphere. He bought some snacks, which tasted really good.

Bai Lin didn't know that in such a small place as Xiangjiang, there was no small world dedicated to the lives of mages. How could mages and ordinary people live in harmony?

But he quickly found the answer, because he saw a very down-to-earth fortune-telling stall on the roadside. The stall owner with a goatee and retro sunglasses was smoking a cigarette out of boredom, humming a tune, and looked happy.

A proud look.

Bai Lin didn't know how other wizards/mages recognized "the same kind", but Bai Lin easily found out that he was a mage, because the summoning illustrated book already showed that his magic power was 54 points, which was not weak.

With Bai Lin's current strength, it would be difficult for ordinary mages not to notice his prying eyes. Just when Bai Lin wanted to strike up a conversation and see if he could get some information, this kind of "street artist" was usually as well-informed as the bar owner.

But just as Bai Lin walked over, a figure jumped out of the alley and walked to the fortune-telling stall ahead of him.

Bai Lin took a look and saw that he was a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old. He was wearing a white shirt and had a backpack on his shoulders. He was obviously a high school student.

"Drink! It's him. It took no effort at all!" Bai Lin had already recognized that this high school student was the Japanese boy Edogawa Hiroyuki whom he saw in the case materials last night.

Bai Lin walked not far away and bought a newspaper from a newsstand on the roadside. He pretended to read the newspaper while listening to their conversation.

Edogawa Hiroyuki: "Uncle Basong, has the matter I asked you come to an end?" (Basong is a common name in Thailand, similar to Amin and Qiang in China. There are many Southeast Asians living in Hong Kong.) He said

It was in standard Mandarin, which made Bai Lin feel a little ridiculous.

Basong, the stall owner: "Are you in such a hurry? You haven't finished school yet! I've told you many times that if you don't go to school well, you will probably be sent back to the orphanage!" His Mandarin was also quite authentic.

Edogawa Hiroyuki: "Uncle, I have said it many times, I am not an orphan, I just haven't found my sister!"

The stall owner Basong waved his hand, indicating that he did not want to discuss this issue anymore. He stretched out his hand and drew a pattern. Passers-by may not know what it meant, but Bai Lin knew that he had cast a small spell, so that passers-by would be able to follow it later.

He couldn't hear it anymore, but that didn't bother Bai Lin.

Basong took out a crumpled piece of paper from his inner pocket, handed it to Edogawa Hiroyuki and said: "You only need to look at these few things to find out. Do you really think you are a detective? Lin Bei looks at it.

You must know that what you are about to do is not simple, these are big guys and you cannot afford to offend them!"

Edogawa Hiroyuki spread out the paper and glanced at it. Bai Lin saw with his peripheral vision that the paper was densely packed with words, but Edogawa Hiroyuki quickly read it, tore the paper into pieces, and threw it into the

In the sewer nearby.

Basong was not surprised. He leaned back and lit another cigarette: "Weige asked me to take care of you, but I didn't ask you to take risks casually! Your current mission is to study hard..."

Before Basong could finish speaking, Edogawa Hiroyuki waved his hand and ran away: "Thank you, Uncle Basong, I'm leaving..."

Basong blew out a smoke ring helplessly, as if there was nothing he could do against this young man.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When Edogawa Hiroyuki walked away, a new face greeted Basong's stall.

Bai Lin sat down on the maza in front of his stall, and Basong felt as if he was being dragged silently into a sub-space. The people and cars on the road seemed to be far away, and they could no longer be seen or heard.

Get yourself into conversation with the young man in front of you.

"Drink, very advanced skills in using space magic...you are not a nobody..." Basong spoke in Jianghu dialect, not like a foreigner at all.

Bai Lin took off his hat and sunglasses. He had already guessed that Bassong was a member of the chaotic good camp (although he might not know it himself). It would be easier for him, who has a world development level of 30%, to communicate with him directly.

Sure enough, Basong was startled when he saw Bai Lin's appearance and the shallow scar on his forehead. The corners of his mouth twitched, his back felt cold, and his tone became a little frightened: "You are... you are from England.

Mr. White?" Because the system has exerted a subtle influence on the world, all people in the chaotic and good camp will intentionally or unintentionally see the news about Bai Lin, and then become interested. After understanding the information about him, they will naturally establish

A kind of respect for idols.

Bai Lin put on his hat and sunglasses again, crossed his legs and said, "Let me make a friend. My real name is Bai Lin, and I am originally an Oriental."

Basong blinked his eyes and said somewhat flattered: "A big shot like you... I... my name is Basong. I have been in Xiangjiang for almost twenty years. What can I do for you?"

Bai Lin said straight to the point: "Kun Ba Song (Kun before the name is an honorific in Thai), I am not a big shot, you just know that I have no ill intentions. I am investigating a major case, and I would like to ask Jiang

What did Hiroyuki Togawa get from you? Is it related to this case?"

Basong was stunned, hesitated, and asked: "Have you been transferred from the British Ministry of Magic to Xiangjiang?" Although he knew about the British expulsion order against Bai Lin, for such a powerful and righteous wizard, Basong naturally

I think it might just be a job relocation.

Bai Lin spread his hands and said: "It can be considered as a private identity to assist in the investigation. After all, I can only fight and kill criminals." He said it easily, but when he heard Basong's ears, there was a vague sense of deterrence.

.

Basong swallowed his saliva and said: "That kid is very smart and is always interested in all kinds of bizarre cases... Alas, it must be because of the case that he asked me for help this time... I hope Mr. Kailin can help me if he meets him again."

Keep an eye on him..." He paused and said: "He asked me about a dock registration list, which contains foreign private ships registered at the Western District Cargo Terminal in the past two weeks."

Bai Lin suddenly understood that Alex and the others were screening the information of incoming foreigners. This was undoubtedly a needle in a haystack, and the information reflected in each person's passport could not determine whether they were their real name or their true identity.

It's very particular.

For Bai Lin, who has traveled through the past in 2020, he has already watched countless crime movies and TV shows. Maritime entertainment centers, maritime casinos, and maritime ice factories are no longer new. There is even a movie that was filmed on a cruise ship.

A battle royale game. In this era, you can build a ship and do almost anything you want on the high seas.

Not to mention cargo ships and passenger ships, let’s talk about many wealthy cruise ships. Some have more than ten cabins. With slight modifications, they can become a maritime laboratory, whether it is preparing magic potions, cultivating viruses, or releasing magic potions.

Evacuating quickly is much better than evacuating on land. If you were the mastermind behind it, you would most likely choose this option.

"Is there any backup of this registration form?" Bai Lin asked.

"What is a backup?" Basong was a little confused, but Bai Lin suddenly realized that this word became popular after the popularization of computers. He quickly said: "It's just a copy. Wasn't the copy just now torn by Edogawa?"

Basong scratched his head and said, "I gave it to him without even looking at it. There are so many words, both Chinese and English, how could I copy them all over again? But..." His style changed, and he didn't know where to pull out a word.

He waved an old magic wand toward the stinking ditch on one side and muttered something. A ball of shredded paper flew out of the stinking ditch, then flew back in the air and landed on the tablecloth of the fortune-telling stall.

Bai Lin saw that this was an improved repair technique. It was very well modified and even had a feeling of Doctor Strange's time magic.

Bai Lin took a quick look and saw that the paper had been repaired, but the words on it were all messed up. It seemed that the repair technique was powerless to do anything about it.

Basong was a little embarrassed and said: "I stole this from the dock manager... I'm afraid there won't be a second copy."

Bai Lin was a little regretful, but had no choice but to bid farewell to Bassong. Fortunately, he had just had an idea. When Edogawa Hiroyuki passed by, he secretly put a magic mark on him, which was like a tracker.

, Bai Lin could easily find the location of Edogawa Hiroyuki through induction in a short period of time. He had a feeling that this child, who looked like Detective Conan in both appearance and name, was very talented in detectives, and might be able to help him find it.

clue.

Bai Lin bought a tourist map on the roadside, which has an introduction to each pier/port. There are nineteen piers in Xiangjiang, large and small, the big ones include Tsim Sha Tsui Pier, GA Pier, Lamma Island Pier, Central Pier, etc.

It has to be said that the Sai Wan Cargo Terminal that Edogawa Hiroyuki is interested in is indeed a very good target. It has a large throughput and many and mixed ships. If the mastermind behind the scenes does not use a cruise ship, but a larger fishing boat,

Or a few containers on a freighter can be easily entered and exited freely. After all, the other party also has a mage who can control the captain and crew through the Imperius Curse, or use polyjuice potion or transfiguration to look like a local.

He walked through the crowd and felt that Edogawa Hiroyuki should be heading towards the Sai Wan Pier. Although the wizards and ordinary people in Xiangjiang lived together almost without distinction, due to the "International Wizarding Secrecy Act",

Mages still have to hide themselves, especially minors who are not allowed to use magic in front of ordinary people (some similar to Muggle isolation spells are not within the restriction, because after all, they are just to make ordinary people invisible), so Edogawa Hiroyuki

Take the tram there honestly like ordinary people, just like Harry taking Mr. Weasley on the London Underground.

Bai Lin was not interested in this Shi Lao Zi Secrecy Law, because with the development of the times, unless wizards open up a new world that is completely isolated from ordinary people, or teleport to another earth-like planet, the effect of magic will be lost.

Slowly fading away in the explosive development of civilian technology, and if wizards do not learn magic and suppress their magical energy, they will produce Obscurus. No matter what the prospect is, paper cannot stop the fire. Such a big "Superman"

"The species cannot stay away from the sight of ordinary people forever.

He found a deserted place and started apparating directly. First, he teleported to the roof of a nearby tall building. It was easy to see the location of the Sai Wan Cargo Terminal. Then he teleported again. When he stepped on the ground, he had already appeared in

There is no one at the dock, but not far away there are dozens of containers and various shelves. Many workers are working hard to move the goods, including many Southeast Asians.
