No matter how you explain it, the collapse of King Unas's pyramid is all blamed on the French Ministry of Magic. Blanco is the scapegoat, and his life is probably over.
But Blanco, as a moderate official, was returned to France by the Egyptian authorities to accept investigation by the International Magic Stone Federation, while Elia and others, Bai Lin and Zhuo finally escaped from the mirror. Afterwards, he was detained by Egypt, his wand was surrendered, and he was imprisoned.
Sitting in the dark and dark dungeon of Cairo, smelling the various complex odors in the air, Bai Lin felt speechless. Labor and management had no choice but to surrender because they had lost their magical power. You can't use it immediately after you get to the ground. Does the door key flash anyone?
Unfortunately, according to relevant laws, the Aurors could only surrender to the Egyptian authorities, otherwise it would be a more serious diplomatic incident.
Bai Lin felt that the Egyptian authorities must have deliberately disgusted them. Otherwise, even if they were locked up in a Muggle prison, why would they enter the dungeon inexplicably? The Auror with "archaeological expertise" touched the wall tiles of the dungeon, and it was serious. Said: "This dungeon has a history of four to five hundred years..."
Bai Lin rolled his eyes, feeling, should I treat this place as a historic site and visit it for free? It had been four to five hundred years, and he didn't know how many ghosts he had imprisoned. Bai Lin felt that the bottom of his butt was not very clean. Maybe something happened here that he didn't want to know.
What was even more unbearable was Zhuo Bi. How could he have imagined that when he came out of the mirror, he would be surrounded by three or four magic wands and five or six guns pointing at him, jumping from one bowl into another. The difference is that he won't be hungry in the mirror, but now he is so hungry that his chest touches his back.
"Boss, how about you summon Phoenix and let him take us away?" Zhuobi suggested.
Before Bai Lin could speak, Elia on the side had already spoken: "It's easy to escape, but it's difficult to clear your name. I dare say that if we move forward, we will become an internationally wanted criminal. If the old man from the Ministry of Magic is forced by diplomacy, Pressure, if you confess your sins directly on our behalf, then your whole life will be over! What is your name in the East?"
"You can't even wash yourself away if you jump into the Yellow River." Bai Lin said. However, he still summoned Phoenix. About ten minutes later, there was a burst of magic in the dungeon, and the house elf Phoenix appeared next to Bai Lin. He was also wearing a chef's hat and holding a shovel.
"Um, dear master...you have come to Egypt again?...I am making fried chicken steak, do you want to try it?" Phoenix conjured up a plate of fragrant chicken steak like a magic trick.
"Thank God! There is something to eat!" Zhuo Bi quickly took the plate of chicken steak. Phoenix was obviously very happy to see Zhuo Bi: "Ah, friend Zhuo Bi, the master has found you!"
Bai Lin pushed away Zhuo Bi, who was holding a chicken chop and eating Haisai, and said: "Does the Seeker family have connections in Egypt? Ask Kaka or Lulu for me? Get me out of the dungeon?"
Only then did Phoenix see clearly that they were in a gloomy dungeon. He thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps you can ask Elder Moritz for help. Do you need me to send you a message?"
"Let's contact Lulu..." Bai Lin looked at the few magic points he had left, but he didn't want Moritz, his cheap uncle who didn't know whether he was friend or foe, to know that he was now a Muggle. : "Also, let's get some food, we're all starving..."
Phoenix agreed wholeheartedly, and before leaving, he did not forget to say: "Friend Zhuobi, I hope you can come back to work soon, the canteen can't live without you!"
With Phoenix's "takeaway", everyone's happiness index in prison skyrocketed. Phoenix also brought some news. Lulu went to Beautiful Country and could not be contacted for the time being, but I heard that Fudge already knew about Bai Lin. , is asking the British Embassy to help find the person. The British influence in Egypt is still very good, but this incident is a bit big. I am afraid that even if Egypt releases the person, Bai Lin will have to go to a hearing when he goes back.
Bai Lin shrugged. He was unlucky this time. He thought he was giving Blanco a favor, but who knew that the law breakers had calculated it just right. Bai Lin didn't need to think about it. He knew that the French Ministry of Magic would definitely be in chaos at this time. The Auror office may become useless in a short period of time. I hope Blanco can prove the threat of the lawbreakers to the higher-ups when he returns and make countermeasures against possible attacks.
Although he only had a weak period of 4 hours, every second was very difficult for Bai Lin. He felt that the taste of having magic power was too addictive. No wonder many dark wizards tried every means to increase their magic power, even at the risk of harming the world.
With nothing to do, Bai Lin could only take out the characters he wrote down in the Secret Text Workshop and study them. He was not a language expert, and the logic of these characters was not that strong. In ancient times, because of the difficulty of recording, they were generally like Eastern classical Chinese. The same refinement, but the syntax may be different.
Bai Lin looked at it for a long time with no results, but he had two candidates in his mind who could help. The first one was Hermione. This little girl was not very old, but she had a wide range of knowledge and had a spirit of research. Even if she did something Even those who don’t understand the meaning of these runes should have constructive opinions; the second one is the magic craftsman Addison who makes equipment for Bai Lin. This old blacksmith can make magic equipment, maybe he can figure out this secret text. , saying that I have never had the opportunity to pick up the customized equipment. If I can return to Hogwarts, I will definitely get close to this old craftsman as soon as possible.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. In Bai Lin's rather uneasy mood, the summoning illustrated book gave him another response:
What else is there to say? Bai Lin confirmed decisively, and then a warm breath seemed to be injected into Bai Lin's body, and then disappeared from his body. Bai Lin looked at his attribute values: strength 25, magic power 67
Later, a long-awaited system complaint appeared again. Maybe this was a message from the Sun God.
Just when Bai Lin was happy that the magic power had returned to his body, a visitor came to the dungeon. From a distance, he heard the jailer opening the iron fence from the ground, followed by the iron doors one by one being opened. Bai Lin When I came in, I noticed that it was a huge dungeon with at least a dozen cells, but they must have been abandoned for a long time. Theirs was the only one in the entire dungeon that had people locked up, so the visitors must have come to see them.
Elijah walked to the iron door and looked through the small window on the door to see who was coming, but he only saw a black figure slowly walking over.
"The Ministry of Magic must be here to bail us out!" Elia whispered.
Several other Aurors were also excited. Most of them had families. Who wanted to be imprisoned for such injustice? They could only firmly believe that the Ministry of Magic would come back to rescue them.
The black shadow walked to the door, and Elijah was stunned. The other person was a white-haired old man in his sixties or seventies, wearing a yellow bishop's robe.
