Chapter 846 Any Door
Chapter 847 Rebirth Celebration
Tonks is a natural disguised Animagus. She can turn into whoever she wants. Teddy also inherited this power, but Pomona doesn't want him to become an Auror anymore.
While walking, they came across a shop selling nautical supplies, which contained nautical charts drawn by pirates and navigators, sailors' manuals for lagoon exploration, ship maintenance and marine life identification information. She regarded them as gifts and planned to take them with her. Go back and give it to him.
It's good to be a traveling naturalist. This time she came to Venice and gained a lot of knowledge. It was better than staying in that closed island country.
The girls needed make-up to attend the dance, and a make-up artist whom Laola knew volunteered to help, on the condition that he also attended a rich party.
As a "noble", of course he has to bring servants with him. It seems a bit too big for a "duke" to bring two men, two women and a gay to the ball.
But given that the Grand Duke of Lorraine gave them such a tricky thing, Pomona finally agreed to his request.
The dance started at 8 o'clock and ended at 4 o'clock in the morning. According to the gossip of the gay makeup artist, they only hired 100 actors, the Marquise.
The ball includes live performances, including magic, acrobatics, contortion, singing and dancing, and professional prop masters from the Opera House decorate the venue. It seems that the Marquise intends to surpass the "Century Ball" held by Carlos de Best in the early 20th century. .
When there are too many rich people, it is inevitable to fight against the rich. Francois said goodbye to his treasure with 370 million US dollars. Ordinary people who win 30 million US dollars in lottery will not have to work in their lifetime, but in François The 30 million here is another concept. When will he make it back after investing it?
If Venice restricts tourists from entering the city, its art galleries will not have enough visitors.
He only bought a 99-year property right and a ticket for 20 euros. If he has to sell 1.4 million more tickets, he probably won’t be able to live another hundred years. Besides, there is also the problem of inflation. This business is too loss-making. He missed this opportunity. Whoever gets the chance may have other works. This feeling is different from "I won the jackpot, wow, hahahahahaha."
A wealthy man with an asset of 30 million US dollars is not qualified to receive an invitation from the Marquise, but "artists" can enter. The Masquerade itself cannot be strictly inspected by security. Verdi's work "Masquerade" is based on 18th-century Sweden. It is adapted from the assassination of King Gustav III. The assassin sneaked into the venue wearing a mask.
If a security guard wants to check whether guests are wearing weapons, they will first be scolded. Only after the gunshots are fired, the revelers will wake up, and then the women will start screaming loudly. This is very consistent with the setting of a suspense drama. The witch becomes even more mysterious.
The palace that the Marchioness bought also came with a garden. It is said that the palace garden was designed with reference to the Borges Labyrinth in the Monastery of St. George. The famous oil painting "The Wedding in Cana" was taken away from the Monastery of St. George by Napoleon. of.
In the labyrinth there is a cypress cloister, which is the oldest preserved part of the monastery and was not found in the palace bought by the Marchioness.
She is a charity lover. The maze will be open to the public. Parents can take their children to play in it. The center of the maze is a children's playground for children to play. Just listening to the description of the gay makeup artist makes Pomona feel sweaty all over.
All stood up.
It was very convenient for the men. They could just put on their clothes and masks and leave. It took at least an hour or two for the women to dress up and do their hair. Just after seven o'clock, Alessandro's father Fernando and two friends came to support the tribute.
Dora came to pick them up.
The tutu skirt is very beautiful, but the problem is that the hem of the skirt is too big and the top of the feet cannot be seen. If you don't want to step on it and fall into the water and become a floating jellyfish, there is only one solution. Let the men help!
Pomona's skirt had been modified and there was no longer a terrible bustle, and it was very easy for Severus to carry her aboard.
Monica and Laola were a disaster. Gianluca didn't have the arm strength to pick up Monica. Laola got on the boat with the help of Alessandro and Fernando. She was so helpless that she wanted to help Monica.
Veronica always has a serious expression, and she already looks like a nun even without wearing a nun's uniform.
Even if it's an Armani suit, wearing it to a masquerade is as inappropriate as showing up in a witch's robe on Halloween when everyone wears casual clothes.
Monica and Pomona's plan to harm Gianluca and Alessandro failed, and in the end it was Nicola who lent him the costume.
He was dressed gorgeously, but not ostentatiously. He was wearing a black velvet robe, with puff sleeves on his arms and patterns embroidered with beads. His face was an ordinary opera mask, not gorgeous at all, and as beautiful as a wild rose.
Compared with Monica, he is just a foil.
Alessandro looked very gorgeous in gold clothes. He and Laola looked very good together.
It is not advisable to marry close relatives, but wizards do have more children than wizards born to Muggle families.
Petunia was very jealous of Lily. They both had the same parents. How could they be so different? Little Severus was not so charming that he could turn the two sisters against each other.
A wizard's power cannot be obtained by acting coquettishly with his parents.
When purebloods began to persecute Muggle-born wizards, they would rather live on the streets than return to the Muggle world. Instead, wizards occasionally went to play tricks on Muggles.
Severus just said that in 1630, a tall wizard led a group of Muggle believers to create panic in Milan. This was very similar to Malfoy's usual style. French nobles with Nordic descent were indeed much taller than Italians.
Neither of them bothered the confused young man at all. According to Malfoy's usual style, his home was always the last to arrive, and the distinguished guests never said they arrived early.
Finally, they got on the boat without any danger, and the gondola took them through the waterways. There were countless tourists taking pictures of them. Laura waved to them, while Pomona was a little impatient.
Before becoming a star, I wanted to be noticed, but after becoming a public figure, I got tired of the feeling of being secretly photographed by paparazzi.
Harry is not the kind of person who likes attention, especially when it comes to Cedric's death, but the Daily Prophet treats him as a liar.
He came back, and just like this time, Harry resisted Voldemort's control, but she did not. She didn't know whether she was too weak or whether Voldemort was too powerful.
Strong curiosity is a common characteristic of geniuses. Working to satisfy one's curiosity rather than working for money will still be enjoyable even if there is no fame or fortune.
Curiosity is the unbridled desire of some people. They are eager to know things they should not know.
Taboos were broken one after another. If it weren't for the fact that there was no body on the altar, she almost thought Voldemort and Severus had captured a Muggle to sacrifice.
The altar was not far from the place where the woman who lived for appearance died. Maybe she died after looking into the eyes of the basilisk like Moaning Myrtle.
If she was unfortunate enough to be petrified like Hermione Granger, then she would be burned to ashes with the others in a mass grave.
Being a woman is disgusting, which may be why Voldemort is unwilling to take over her body.
She sneered, got close to the former Death Eater's arms, and slowly sailed to the Palace of Gracia on the Grand Canal amidst the noise of the two ships behind her.
It was a pure white palace that formerly belonged to the Gracia family. It was now illuminated by bright lights and stood out against the rest of the buildings shrouded in darkness.
It is in Baroque style, the pier is decorated with green plants, and two strong men wearing bull-head masks stand there to receive guests.
After checking the invitation letter, Pomona walked to the venue with her "makeup artist", assistant and others.
From the pier to the foyer, you have to cross a wooden board decorated with plant arches. After entering the foyer, you will first see four actresses dressed as forest fairies. They stand on the eerie stone pier, wearing clothes tied with flowers, behind them
Carrying a pair of wings on his back, he was waving his hands meaninglessly, as if expressing some kind of performance art.
Not far away is a huge apple tree, and members of the band are performing in the mist.
That magical scene seemed really scary to Pomona, as if she suddenly came to the forest where Pan lived.
After bypassing the band, we entered the lobby on the first floor, which was very busy. A ballet was performing in the center of the stage, with the forest in the background. It had no meaning other than excitement.
In the center of the hall was an acrobat performing contortionist, and a dwarf in costume performing apple throwing.
"The dance has just started, and it won't be exciting until the middle of the night!" the makeup artist said excitedly, and then left them, seemingly looking for an "amorous encounter."
"Have fun." Pomona said, took Severus' arm and left.
This place made her feel no longer peaceful. Maybe there was a devil haunting this place.
Chapter completed!
