Chapter 425 Cairo (asking for monthly ticket recommendation)
Two months later, the Ministry of Magic.
Several well-dressed wizards were gathering in the hall of the Ministry of Magic, and some of them were carrying large and small bags beside them.
"Mevis, why hasn't Anduin arrived yet? Today is the day to go to Egypt. He must not have forgotten it." Although Vanessa has graduated for several years, she still retains a trace of innocence, with a look of eagerness to try. He stared at Mei Weisi in front of him.
Meivis, who was named by him, took out a beautiful watch that Anduin gave her at Christmas, opened it and glanced at it, then looked at Vanessa speechlessly, "The time we agreed on hasn't arrived yet, you What are you in a hurry for?"
"I'm not in a hurry, I'm just a little excited. After all, this is my first time going abroad, and I don't know the difference between Cairo and the UK." After Vanessa said, she glanced at another lady beside her, "Ah Celia, you have traveled in Europe before, are the living habits there very different from ours?"
"Uh, it's okay." Azalea smiled slightly at Vanessa, "I only stayed in France for a while, and the wizards there didn't surprise us much except for the language, but the French food Very good, I have never been to Cairo, so I can’t comment.”
"Don't say a few words, Anduin is here, we are ready to go anytime." Director Bianca beside Azalea reminded him.
The people who were chatting at this time looked at the entrance of the main hall. At this time, a man was wearing a black formal suit with silver trim, a soft felt hat on his head, a monocle pinned in his eye socket, a suitcase in one hand, and a suitcase in the other. Anduin, carrying a cane, walked towards them, and beside him was a short husky in a black vest, which was the shrunken Hogg.
"Sorry for keeping you guys waiting for so long." Anduin put down the suitcase at hand after approaching, slightly pressed the top hat on his head, and then looked at Bianca, "I didn't expect you to lead the team to participate in this conference .”
"The time is just right, we should say that we came too early, it's because some people are urging us desperately early in the morning." After finishing speaking, Biancar glanced at Vanessa, and then looked at Anduin, "To be honest, for us, participating in the International Alchemy Conference is nothing more than a public-funded trip. The real protagonist is you. I heard that your works also won awards this year."
"It's just good luck." Anduin shook his head modestly. His tracking glasses did win the gold award for pioneering contributions at the conference, which Burns had already greeted him in advance.
Then he glanced at his colleagues in the Ministry of Magic. Among them, Director Bianca was the leader. The International Alchemy Conference is a grand gathering of alchemists all over the world. The Alchemy Research Center will send out invitations to officials.
It is customary for the Ministry of Magic to send a director-level person to lead the team, and Azalea, as Bianca's secretary, will naturally accompany the team. Anduin only learned about this from her a few days ago, presumably this time Dispatch is also quite random.
Apart from these two, Mei Weisi and Vanessa, as Aurors, were the accompanying security personnel, but these two security guards looked more like they were going on a trip, and they only had a big bag of luggage around them.
There are also two alchemists in the ministry, who were the two who supervised Anduin when he was repairing the alchemy room. Although they are a bit inferior, as rare professionals in the ministry, they are so good to observe Learning opportunities are naturally indispensable to them.
"Now that everyone is here, let's get ready to go." After saying that, Bianca took out a thick hemp rope that was three to four meters long, "Everyone grab the door keys, Cairo should have arranged people to wait for us. "
When everyone heard the words, they immediately stretched out their hands to grab the hemp rope that Bianca had taken out, and even Hogg jumped into the air, biting the hemp rope with his mouth wide open.
Then everyone felt dizzy for a while, as if they were suddenly thrown into the sky, and then fell heavily at an extremely fast speed.
After everyone regained a sense of being down-to-earth, a group of 7 people had arrived in an alley.
The stone walls of the houses under the feet and around are all thick and earthy yellow, and the air breathed in the nose has changed from the humidity of the UK to the dryness.
When you look up, you can see all the buildings with the same color as the surrounding walls. Their shapes are very different from those in Europe. Most of them are flat-roofed earth-colored houses, with some spiers and domes mixed in.
But they all look like they were directly piled up with soil. Even when interacting with the sky, you can see that the edge of the blue sky is reflected slightly yellow. Of course, this may also be caused by the wind and sand here.
"Ugh! Why is the port key more bumpy than before? Now I feel like my intestines are squeezed together." As soon as Vanessa landed on the ground, she quickly supported a low wall next to her and vomited.
Among the people next to them, only Bianca, Meivis, and Anduin looked calm, and the other three also had ugly expressions. Of course, it was Vanessa who reacted the most.
"It's too far away from the UK, so the process is naturally uncomfortable. Didn't I tell you to eat less in the morning?" Mei Weiss frowned with some disgust, and pinched her nose and scolded.
"It seems that your journey was not pleasant!"
When the visible people were familiarizing themselves with the new environment, a familiar voice suddenly came from their ears. Everyone turned around and found that it was Edgar Burns, the elder brother of Amelia, Director of the Department of Legal Enforcement, Ann Duin's alchemy mentor whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Burns was wearing a white robe commonly seen in the Arab world, with a large turban on his head and a ring around it, and sandals on his feet. He looked like an Arab sheikh, and he was looking at the couple in front of him with a smile. people.
"Professor Burns!" "Edgar." "Mr. Burns."
When several people saw that it was Burns who came to greet them in person, they immediately greeted them with smiles, especially Anduin, he hadn't seen this mentor for almost five years.
"Welcome to Cairo." Burns approached with a smile, "I learned about your itinerary from the Egyptian Ministry of Magic, so I volunteered to come here to welcome you. How are you?"
"Edgar, I didn't expect to see you as soon as I got there. It's really great." Bianca and Burns have been friends for many years. When they saw him, they immediately laughed and hugged each other, and then Looking at each other strangely.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, but you haven't changed much. The big beard is still so piercing, but why are you dressed like this? I almost didn't recognize you if I didn't look at your face."
"I can't help it. It's too hot here, so I can only follow the local customs and learn how the locals dress." Burns also laughed.
