Journey to the Wizarding World of Hogwarts

"No, no, no, Harry, believe me, even if the Floo Network and Apparition are broken, this thing will not be broken." Sirius promised, "Let me think about it, MAGIC... 6-2 -4-4-2, that should be it, yes!”

Harry dubiously dialed the number Sirius said.

Something happened that shocked him.

After he dialed the last digit, as the dial whizzed back to its original position, a woman's cold voice sounded from the phone booth, "Welcome to the Ministry of Magic, please state your name and what you are here to do." .”

The voice was loud and clear, and Harry would bet the twenty galleons in his pocket that it wasn't coming from the receiver!

Because he discovered that everyone could hear this sound!

"Sirius Black, from the Auror Office, brought Harry Potter, Ginny Weasley, Robert Leslie and Hermione Granger to visit and study." After saying that, Sirius turned his head He looked at the man standing aside with a look of disgust on his face, "By the way, what's your name?"

Rufus's eyes widened and he shouted in disbelief, "Are you humiliating me? You must be! You are humiliating me! You damn guy!"

"Please tell me your name." The woman's voice became a little colder, and the air in the phone booth seemed to start to freeze. No, it was really frozen, because at some point a layer of water climbed up on the still intact glass. Frost, "Otherwise, the Ministry of Magic will have the right to refuse your visit."

The young man flushed, breathing heavily, and felt like he was about to take action at any time, but in the end he did not act rashly, but gritted his teeth and shouted, "Rufus Fudge! Come visit Minister Fudge, you have made an appointment!" "

"Thank you," the phone booth returned to normal, the frost slowly disappeared, and the woman's voice sounded again, still as cold as ever, "Guest, please pick up the badge and pin it in front of your clothes."

Ding Lingling, clatter, a square silver badge slipped out from the metal chute usually used to withdraw coins.

Everyone's name was written on the badges, and the little wizards picked up their badges and pinned them on their T-shirts and skirts.

Rufus glared at Black and the little wizards fiercely and picked up the last badge.

After they all put on their badges, the woman's voice rang again, "Visitors from the Ministry of Magic, you need to be inspected and register your wands at the security desk. The security desk is located at the end of the main hall."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground suddenly shook violently. Under the surprised gazes of the little wizards, they and the phone booth slowly sank into the ground.

The sidewalk outside the phone booth rose higher and higher, and finally there was only darkness around, and the light above them slowly disappeared. They seemed to be in a speeding mine car, and the surroundings were "stabbing--stabbing--" "A teeth-searing friction sound.

After about a minute or more, a golden light rose from the feet, and then the golden light slowly widened and gradually spread to the head.

"Close your eyes, close your eyes." Sirius quickly reminded, "We are almost at the end."

The little wizards closed their eyes one after another, and their eyes were completely blank. If Sirius hadn't reminded them in time, they might have burst into tears before entering the Ministry of Magic.

"The Ministry hopes you have a good day," the woman's voice said.

"Okay, you can open your eyes now." Sirius said, and the little wizards opened their eyes.

The phone booth shook and stopped falling. A few seconds later, the door suddenly opened. Sirius walked out first, and the others followed him, looking around curiously.

Rufus left in a hurry. He didn't want to stay here for a moment with these bastards!

In front of you is a splendid main hall, which is surprisingly large in area, several times larger than the school's auditorium. This is the lobby and reception area of ​​the Ministry of Magic.

The ground is covered with polished dark wooden floors, and the peacock blue ceiling is inlaid with sparkling golden symbols, which are constantly moving and changing, like a huge high-altitude bulletin board.

The walls on all sides are lined with dark, shiny wooden boards, and many gilded fireplaces are embedded in the boards. Every few seconds, with a soft pop, a wizard suddenly appeared from a fireplace on the left. And to the right, there were several people lining up in front of each fireplace, waiting to leave.

In the middle of the foyer is a fountain, and a group of pure gold statues stand in the middle of the circular pool. The most eye-catching one is the noble wizard in the middle. His right hand is raised high, his wand pointed straight at the sky. Standing next to him She was a beautiful witch, and surrounding them were a centaur, a goblin, and a house elf.

The centaurs, goblins and house elves looked up at the two wizards with expressions of admiration. Shining water columns came from the top of the wizard's wand, from the centaur's arrow, from the tip of the goblin's hat, and from the house elf. Jets are sprayed out of the two ears of the elf, and as the water column flows past, the sculpture makes "ding-dong-ding-dong" and "swishing" sounds, which sounds very pleasant to the ear. There are many sparkling silver Sickles and Copper Nuts at the bottom of the pool. Could it be that... this is actually a wishing pool?

The little wizards came closer and looked at the sculpture curiously. Hermione pointed to a stained small sign under the sculpture and said, "There is a sign here, 'All proceeds from the Magic Brothers Fountain are donated to St. Mungo's. 'Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies', so...it's called the Fountain of Magical Brethren."

Simply put, this fountain represents - all those who can do magic are brothers.

"Puff -" "Pop -" A strange sound sounded, and the little wizards were startled. They thought something unexpected had happened, and looked around one after another.

"What's wrong?" Sirius asked confused.

Harry raised his hand and asked doubtfully, "Black, did you hear any strange noises?"

"Strange noise?" Sirius became even more confused, "What do you mean?"

"Just... listen!" Harry shouted, "This 'puff' sound."

Sirius was confused for a while, not understanding what Harry was talking about.

"It's Apparition." Only then did Robert react. He pointed at the many wizards who suddenly appeared next to the fountain. "So many people Apparated at the same time, the sound is indeed strange."

"Apparition?" Harry was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized, "It's the kind Kreacher uses..."

It was working time at this time, and hundreds of wizards came to the fountain through the fireplace or Apparition, and then walked towards the golden door at the other end of the foyer.

"This way." Sirius waved, "We have to register first..."
