The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Five hours later, the plane landed slowly at Cairo International Airport in Egypt. A group of people got off the plane carrying large and small bags. Tom looked at Alyosha's packages and suddenly felt that this adventure might be different from the one he remembered...

After they got their luggage, they took the minibus Peter had rented in advance and headed to the hotel booked by Hal Hunter. The minibus looks shabby, but once it starts, it is extremely smooth and comfortable. When everyone arrived outside the hotel, it was almost sunset, but they encountered a small accident when checking in.

"The water pipe exploded???" When Dr. Hunter heard the news, his heart also exploded. The scene of the water pipe suddenly exploding while he was taking a shower appeared in his mind, imagining the appearance of the yellow turbid water spraying out. He wanted to change The hotel is gone.

However, it is not that simple to find a new hotel for twelve people in Cairo, a place they are unfamiliar with when the sun is about to set, so Hal can only endure it.

Originally, Dr. Hunter had luxuriously booked six double rooms. However, a water pipe in the hotel exploded and flooded one floor. There were not enough suites.

The end result is that the five Alyosha brothers share a very large suite, Dr. Hunter and the glasses translator Peter share a room, and there are two double rooms left...

"In this case, there is only one answer." Tom thought, in this case, is there any choice?

"Yes, yes." Hermione thought so too, and the two of them watched in shock as Sarah, Will, and Allen walked into the same room.

Tom:? !

Do classmates have to know each other so well? Sara is really a girl who always smiles! Is it really okay for Will and Alan to teach them like this?

"I must be thinking too much." Tom calmed down.

But a very practical problem faced him: there was only one double bed room, and there were two people in this team.

"What an enviable friendship among classmates," Hermione forced herself to pretend to be calm and pushed open the hotel door, "Then let's go in too."

The suite is not big, and the master bedroom is about fifteen square meters. The floor is covered with Egyptian-style carpets, and there is a two-meter-wide carved bed in the center, which looks very soft. Opposite the bed is a table. The two hanging lamps in front of the table are the only sources of light in the room after dark. Although there are few lights, the room has good lighting. There is a large window through which you can see the dome of the temple in the distance.

Tom carried his luggage in with a heavy head. After the door of the house was closed, the two of them fell into silence.

"Well... I bought some magic items. Come and take a look." Tom broke the silence and took out the items he bought from Diagon Alley one by one and introduced them to Hermione.

Sure enough, Hermione's attention was drawn to it. She looked at the items Tom bought carefully and listened to his introduction.

"So you bought a crystal ball?"

"Sent." Tom corrected.

"Let's do some divination tonight!" Hermione became very interested in this subject.

Before they could chat for a while, there was a knock on the door. It was Dr. Hunter, who came to ask everyone to go out for dinner. The hotel owner recommended a nearby small restaurant. There were not many customers in the restaurant. After Tom and the others entered, they sat down at two large tables, occupying almost half of the restaurant.

The owner of the restaurant is a slightly fat, middle-aged bald man. He wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses and a light mustache. He looks very kind. He personally greeted everyone to sit down in English with a strong accent, and then brought a dozen juices to each table. Each jar was the size of an adult's forearm. Immediately afterwards, he brought two more baskets of "Yesu". This is the staple food of the Egyptians. It is a flat round bread made without yeast. It is somewhat like a water chestnut cake without sesame. At the same time, he also brought it There were two clay pots filled with beer.

Tom was not interested in the beer in the clay pot, so he poured himself a glass of juice—Egyptian juice is different from juice with water or flavoring added, and is mostly pure natural juice with only fresh fruits added. Tom chose mango juice, which has plenty of pulp and a pure taste. Hermione poured a glass of grape juice and sipped it together slowly, with her lips stained with a light purple.

Soon, accompanied by a strong exotic aroma, the boss walked in again, holding a huge tray in his hand, which contained several fine linen bags that were shiny with oil.

"This is Bakhsh pilaf," said Will, although he has a bad personality but is very knowledgeable. "This is a special delicacy in Bukhara, Uzbekistan. The characteristic is that it is cooked in a cloth bag. It is very energy-consuming. One cooking time takes 4 to 6 hours, or even 8 hours. However, the locals will slowly boil the bag in hot water, and then go out to visit friends. When it gets late, they finish their carnival and have a steaming meal when they return home. "

"Oh——" Everyone present let out incomprehensible admiration. Will also took a sip of beer proudly, "This is a taste that has been passed down for thousands of years, you must try it."

At this time, the boss put the tray on the table, picked up a shovel on it, and began to gently tap the bag to break up the rice inside. Immediately afterwards, he opened the seal of the bag, and a smell of aroma hit his face.

He heard the conversation between Will and everyone, and also answered: "When the rice grains expand when heated, they will squeeze out the juice in other ingredients. These juices are eventually absorbed by the rice grains. Since the rice is full of juice, it tastes fuller. , delicious."

While introducing this dish, he picked up a corner of the bag, turned the opening downwards, shook it gently, and at the same time tapped the bag with a shovel, and shook the rice pilaf inside on the big silver plate. A small bag unexpectedly poured A large plate of pilaf came out. Repeated several times, a plate as long as an adult's arm is piled with pilaf.

"I wish you find delicious food in a happy life." He picked up the plate and walked to Alyosha's table.

In addition to Bakhsh pilaf, the boss also served a pot of green thick soup, which is a dish called Molokia stewed with rice and garlic, which is a common plant on both sides of the Nile River: mallow, and is an Egyptian dish. Speciality cuisine. In addition, there is a large plate of kabab barbecue, a large bowl of fruit salad, and a bowl of thick yogurt with honey and raisins.

"The ancient city this time was a clue I found when I accidentally looked through a papyrus photocopy. According to the papyrus records, it was a city that belonged to the God of Time and the first pharaoh. At the same time, in that record, there were also There is such a strange shape." While everyone was enjoying their meal, Dr. Hunter talked about the origin of this trip.
