Journey to the Wizarding World of Hogwarts

March 20, 1995, is probably a day that Tokyo residents will never forget.

With the rapid development of rail transportation, taking the subway to work and school has become a daily routine for Tokyo citizens, and this day is no exception. However, at this time, people who get on and off the subway have not yet realized that, perhaps for a long time thereafter, the word subway, as well as The scraping sound of the rails will be a lingering nightmare for them.

A cult called Aum Shinrikyo, in order to retaliate against society, released sarin gas on a total of five trains on the three lines of the Tokyo Subway, killing 13 people, poisoning about 5,500 people, and hospitalizing more than 1,000 people.

According to statistics, a total of 26 subway stations have been affected, and traffic throughout Tokyo has fallen into chaos.

"I heard that only a few people were caught, including their leader." Mr. Drifter said in a daze, "The others are still wandering outside. We don't dare to take the subway now, so we can only drive or take the bus. "

Well, as a wanderer, you actually have a car?

But if you think about it carefully, even a homeless person can have an iPhone 12, so what’s the point of having an extra car?

"Poison?" Hermione was dumbfounded, "So are neon lights usually so dangerous?"

Robert really wanted to remind her that the world of wizards was more dangerous. Wasn't it common for people to poison each other every day at Hogwarts?

but……

Poisonous gas.

Robert felt a subtle mood, what is this called? End up eating bad results?

"I'm telling you, this sect is terrible and has been poisoned several times." Mr. Drifter said mysteriously, "Every time it was a big move, but there was no evidence to arrest them, but I heard that this This time they went too far, and the big boss of Nagata Town issued a death order to kill all these people."

Miss Yuko and Takashi Murakami lowered their heads as if in silence, and then asked if there were any other major events.

"There have been earthquakes every day since the beginning of the year..." Mr. Drifter's voice became lower and lower, and in the end he couldn't hold it any longer. "There are occasionally tsunamis, but the Seto Inland Sea is not bad. We can still see it by boat now. A whirlpool?"

"Although Naruto is not as prosperous as a big city, it is safe at least..."

With that said, he fell asleep.

After calling the waiter and sending Mr. Drifter back to his room, the little wizards were silent for a while.

Murakami Takashi sighed, "Did so many things happen before? I have no idea at all."

Yuko was also very sad, "I haven't received any news at all."

The two of them felt relieved immediately. At first, their family members or others must have been afraid that they would worry about being born in a foreign country, but after that, they probably just didn't want to mention such a scary thing from the bottom of their hearts.

After calming down, Murakami Takashi said to everyone, "Okay, now we know something, well, although this is not what I want to hear..."

Yuko sighed, "Earthquakes, attacks, and temptations, how many things did these guys do while we were away from Neon!"

Although they were angry, they couldn't run up to the Muggles and tell them that these were all caused by supernatural forces.

Not to mention that there is no evidence at all, this kind of statement is completely impossible for others to believe.

"Speaking of earthquakes..." Robert rubbed his chin, "I heard that there is a monster in Neon called the earthquake catfish?"

Some neon people worship catfish as gods, but even if they don't regard them as gods, many people regard them as close relatives of the water god.

This is probably similar to how many people in flower-growing countries believe that carps are close relatives of dragons?

Normally, catfish will be very active before an earthquake. This is probably because catfish are more sensitive to seismic currents before earthquakes, which causes a commotion in the fish school.

In the past, people believed that earthquakes occurred in certain places simply because catfish were angry. There was even a proverb that "when catfish make trouble, earthquakes will occur".

Neon even spent huge sums of money to study the relationship between catfish and earthquakes.

Catfish: mmp, I did something wrong.

"That is a kind of magical creature." Takashi Murakami rubbed his temples, "There are still some there now, but they have left the places where humans gather and have gone to the wilderness or the seabed."

Yuko clicked her lips and said with some uncertainty, "I seem to remember that our family has records that there is indeed an earthquake catfish that is over a thousand years old around Neon Island. It is so huge that an earthquake or tsunami will occur if it is moved even slightly. , it usually circles around the island and rarely comes close to the land.”

"Thousands..." Hermione couldn't help but look at the bracelet on her wrist, "That's really big..."

He sighed meaningfully.

Murakami Takashi and Yuko naturally didn't know that the bracelet on Hermione's wrist was also a thousand-year-old monster. They communicated in a low voice before walking towards the two of them again.

"Although I don't know if these events at the beginning of the year have anything to do with the shrine, at least we have determined one thing." Murakami smiled reluctantly, "The number of shikigami has indeed increased."

He almost said that in order to get more shikigami, the priests angered the earthquake catfish, which led to the outbreak of the great earthquake.

After all, there is no evidence, right?

Accusations without evidence are slander.

"Ignore that kind of thing for now." He sighed, "I just want to know if the earthquake catfish has been caught by them. If even the earthquake catfish is caught, then our situation will be very bad!"

He was not alarmist. After all, as an old monster that had existed for thousands of years, the earthquake catfish was so powerful that the young wizards could not cope with it.

Judging from the legend, the earthquake catfish has a relatively single ability, earthquakes and subsequent tsunamis, and its smooth skin is covered with mucus. It has extremely high defense capabilities against various spells and physical attacks. Said that this kind of creature cannot be defeated unless special methods or fairy weapons are used.

By the way, it also lives in water, so attacks will most likely not hit it at all.

"It shouldn't be caught." Yuko said with certainty, "After all, it is a silver carp that has lived for a thousand years. It has been active on the Neon Coast. How could it be defeated so easily."

"No need to defeat." Hermione said seriously, "Don't forget, although Muggles don't know magic, they still have many ways to deal with deep sea monsters, such as dolphins and sperm whales."

When talking about dolphins, Hermione's eyes trembled obviously, and she seemed to have thought of something.

Yuko seemed to have thought of that, and patted her shoulder comfortingly.

Although the documentary on Dolphin Bay will not be filmed until more than ten years later, "Dolphin Bay" was a famous whaling ground many years ago. It was not until the world banned whaling that people here started killing dolphins.

It can only be said that whenever such an act of massacre occurs, it is unlikely to be a pleasant experience.

In the past few years, when we were promoting the protection of wild animals, no matter what you say, there were always people who came up with all kinds of weird reasons, or "old Chinese doctors said" and so on. When we were promoting again this year, the sentence "may carry the new coronavirus", There was no immediate rebuttal.

Just...the mood is quite subtle?
