The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

Chapter 9: A "Visit" to the Ministry of Magic Atrium and 7th Floor

November 11th was the day to go to the Ministry of Magic. Sun Zhu got up early again, washed up, and began to tidy himself up in front of the dressing mirror.

What was different from her birthday was that today she pinned a lot of sparkling decorations on her clothes and hair.

"Pink gem hairpin, colorful gold necklace, silver-plated brooch, and crystal cufflinks... Okay, should I add something else? Xiao Tongzi, can you see if there is anything blingbling here that I haven't put on?"

"Host, why is your painting style today so..." It's so eye-catching.

"You don't understand this, right? Anyway, I'm not depressed. You'll understand later."

When she came downstairs dressed neatly, Sun Zhengxing was also surprised as expected.

"Azhu, why are you dressed so formally today? You rarely wear these things normally."

Obviously, these were all accessories he gave to his daughter, but because of her poor aesthetic taste, she seldom wore them.

But today it finally came in handy.

"I'm happy, so of course I have to dress up nicely."

"Look, this looks so good." Sun Zhengxing admired it very much, "My Ah Zhu looks good in anything she wears."

"...Haha, of course." Sun Zhu smiled very reluctantly.

She doubted whether dressing like this for her first visit to the Ministry of Magic would leave a strange impression on the people there, but for the sake of the mission, necessary sacrifices were nothing.

But I don’t know if there is another person with the same aesthetic taste as her father.

After breakfast, she followed Sun Zhengxing to an ordinary street with a shabby red telephone booth.

Sun Zhengxing brought her in, and then skillfully dialed (MAGIC), and the operator's prompt tone soon came out.

"Welcome to the Ministry of Magic. Please state your name and purpose."

She noticed that the source of the sound was indeed in the air, not in the microphone.

"Zheng Xing Sun, an official from the Department of Magical Sports and Sports at the Ministry, is at work as normal today. Zheng Xing Sun's daughter Zhu Sun is here for a brief visit."

"The visitor's identity has been registered." The operator said in a businesslike tone, "Please wear your badge. Please register your wand information at the security checkpoint later."

The phone booth suddenly spit out two coin-sized round name badges engraved with names. At the same time, the entire phone booth sank suddenly like an elevator, taking them off the ground and deep into the ground.

Sun Zhu fainted uncontrollably for a moment, and Sun Zhengxing quickly supported her and said, "You are still too young, so I can only bring you in this way. Usually, Daddy will directly Apparate, and you haven't learned the Follower Apparition yet, so I can't bring you. Oh, of course, a small number of my colleagues will choose to flush themselves in from the public toilet...Haha, is it hard to imagine this scene?"

Sun Zhu nodded slightly and couldn't help laughing.

Soon the phone booth stopped sinking and they arrived at the main hall on the eighth floor of the Ministry of Magic.

The main hall was large and magnificent, with dark wood boards on the floor and golden runes flowing on the dark blue ceiling. The most eye-catching thing was the Magic Brothers Fountain, a pure gold statue of wizards and witches, centaurs, goblins and house-elves, who looked like they were living in harmony.

Sun Zhu was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden for the first time, looking left and right.

Since Sun Zhengxing was an official of the Ministry of Magic, his wand had already been registered, and Sun Zhu didn't even have his own wand, so they went straight to the elevator not far away.

The elevator was located at the end of the hall, also with golden doors. There were at least twenty of them. Sun Zhengxing first took her to the Department of Magical Sports and Physical Education on the seventh floor.

Since the Ministry of Magic is located underground in London, the higher the floor, the deeper it is, so from the eighth floor to the seventh floor, you are actually going up.

When the elevator opens, the scene that comes into view is completely different from the magnificence and neatness of the main hall.

The corridors were laid out in a haphazard manner, with posters of many Quidditch teams on the walls.

When Sun Zhu passed by them, he could see that the Seeker on the poster suddenly turned around and caught the Golden Snitch.

She looked at the moving poster with some curiosity. Although she was certainly not a Muggle now, she still couldn't get used to such magical images most of the time.

A celebrity once said that a Muggle is a Muggle, once a Muggle, always a Muggle.

Although she did not completely agree with it, she was deeply impressed by this sentence.

On another poster, a batsman suddenly stopped when she passed by, not even paying attention to the bludger, just staring at her stupidly.

Of course, Sun Zhu didn't think that the other party was fascinated by her beauty. She guessed that it was most likely the fault of these "Shamatte" accessories, so she smiled at him awkwardly.

It was not until he walked into the office that Sun Zhu saw a woman in her forties looking through some documents.

"Hi, Bertha, good morning."

"Good morning, Zhengxing." The woman looked up and saw Sun Zhu following him, and was a little confused. "Who is this?"

"It's my daughter, Zhu. Ah Zhu, this is Dad's colleague, Ms. Bertha Jorkins. Bertha, I told you that Zhu likes Mr. Scamander very much. I brought her here to meet her idol."

"Hello, Ms. Jorkins." Sun Zhu greeted politely.

She felt a little sad when she thought of Bertha Jorkins's final ending in the original novel.

Another innocent person who was harmed and tortured by Mr. Nose.

"Hello, Zhu. I often hear your father praise you, and I finally see you in person." She smiled exaggeratedly, "Oh, you look so cool in this outfit."

"...Thank you for your compliment." Sun Zhu replied with gritted teeth.

"Bertha, if I'm not busy today, I'll probably have to go to the fourth floor. If you need anything, you can drop me a note."

"Well, go ahead and don't worry. What can we expect? There are no major Quidditch matches this season." Bertha said nonchalantly, "The Director is the same. He doesn't show up unless it's busy. I dare say our department is the most idle in the entire Ministry of Magic right now."

The Director of the Sports and Physical Education Department, Ludo Bagman, was a freak who was chased by goblins everywhere because of his gambling. It turned out that he had always been unreliable.

Ministry of Magic, take your date pill.

Sun Zhengxing chuckled twice and pulled Sun Zhu into the elevator, this time going up to the fourth floor, the Department of Magical Creatures Management and Control.

Sun Zhu straightened his back unconsciously. The highlight of today was coming.

According to the information provided by the system, Newt will stay here for the next few days.

After all, he had worked in the Ministry of Magic for a period of time when he was young, and the fourth floor of the Ministry of Magic had always been his workplace.

"Host, I wish you good luck." When she stepped into the fourth floor of the Ministry of Magic, she heard the system's slightly excited words.
