Chapter 873 The magical painting box

Even if Platform 9 and 3 Quarters and Platform 7 and 1 Half are disguised, Muggles may still accidentally enter these two platforms.

They were so surprised when they saw the steam trains that were still smoking, as if they thought they were in a museum.

At this time, the rude wizard would throw them out of the bar like a child who accidentally entered the bar, and push them back to the Muggle platform without erasing their memory.

So Muggles have an urban legend that there is a secret staircase in King's Cross Station, through which you can reach a space where old locomotives are stored, but not many people are interested in this legend.

When taking a train or subway, the carriages are full of men and women holding newspapers and reading. Trying to chat with people on the train is a disaster. Even the most naughty children will be asked not to make too much noise.

If someone says, "Hey, let's go find that secret staircase," they're guaranteed to be looked at like a psychopath. In fact, the British Psychological Society classifies "train fans" as a form of autism, and they also give

It's named Asperger's Syndrome.

Pure-blood wizards were troubled by this and hoped they would no longer share the same platform with Muggles. The Ministry of Magic's response was the same as before: either go to platform nine and three-quarters to take the train, or don't go to fucking school!

Then the whole world became quiet.

Before the value system was completely reversed, Britain had a kind of elegance that required no words. No matter how it was in private, in public life everyone knew how to exercise restraint and behaved modestly and noblely, as if they were making some contribution to this elegant fashion.

At that time, the society was full of care and kindness, and the director of the Wood Orphanage was a good person. Although she was under a lot of pressure, she did not make Tom Riddle as miserable as Oliver Twist, and the TV show also had depth of content.

But no matter what you do these days, you end up feeling guilty. When you go hiking in the mountains, someone will accuse you of making the national parks more crowded and making the fragile mountain trails more weathered.

If you go to watch a football match, the security personnel will suspect that you are part of a group of football hooligans. You go to the match to cause trouble. If the match is broadcast, can you watch it at home?

During the summer vacation at Lily's house, Mr. Evans once told an interesting story about a business trip to Manchester. At that time, the train broke down midway and stopped in the green fields. The radio announced that the terminal would be changed to another place.

The place.

However, when we arrived at the scheduled platform, no one got off the train. Only a Japanese man got off the train honestly. Then he watched depressedly on the platform as the train continued to move forward to Manchester, leaving him alone.

On the platform.

At that time, Pomona heard this incident as a funny thing, but now she thinks about it, it is the cultural difference between the East and the West.

The East emphasizes collective and individual obedience, while the West is more herdlike and falls into a situation of pluralistic ignorance. When the situation is not very clear and when uncertainty prevails, Westerners are most likely to accept and refer to the behavior of others.

Everyone likes to appear confident and unhurried in front of others. If you don’t get off, I won’t get off either. Even if the flight attendant has warned that the train is broken, the flight attendant cannot call passengers “assholes” because he is in the service industry.

, passengers can complain against him.

But in the eyes of the Japanese, maybe the flight attendants and broadcasters represent authority. After obeying the order and getting off the train, the train company should have arrangements. This is a situation in the East. This does not happen in the West. Passengers who get off the train have to find a solution by themselves.

.

Even the United States, which is very similar, is still rude in the eyes of the British. Some people even say that they have ruined English because they cannot speak the "Queen's accent" at all.

The common people learn from the nobles, and the nobles learn from the royal family. As long as the royal family does not recognize that persecuting wizards is illegal, then the common people will continue to persecute wizards. Arianna was harmed by three Muggle children and went into a magic riot. These three Muggle children will not be harmed.

The punishments imposed by wizarding laws will not be punished by Muggle laws, which is different from the Catholic countries on the European continent.

She only learned about the term "witchcraft libel" during this trip. However, due to the international secrecy law, wizards do not know what Muggles think, which gives careerists like Grindelwald the opportunity to take advantage of it.

The weather at the beach is changeable, and the leaden gray clouds have covered the rising sun. Today is another gloomy rainy day.

She pressed the scarab wings on the rough leather travel bag, and as a wave of magic came, when she opened the travel bag again, there was no longer a rope ladder inside, but a painting box filled with turpentine and bright pigments like the rainbow.

Severus also added a drawbar to it, so that they were like wandering artists dragging their painting boxes.

The artist's clothes are quite weird. She can change into a wizard's robe similar to the dress of a bohemian goddess. When Hagrid took Harry walking around the streets of London, the Muggles might have mistaken him for an actor on stilts.

Slytherin has nothing but an exaggerated and gorgeous appearance and an arrogant aristocratic temperament. The old bat would not be like Newt Scamander, who used clothes and scarves to disguise himself in the suitcase.

The copper hardware looks very high-quality, and after adding four table legs, it can walk on its own.

Nobles have aristocratic style. Although Severus is a declining aristocrat with a declining family, he is still half Pugins.

When disaster strikes, civilians can choose to escape, but nobles must stay. Purple robe is the most beautiful shroud.

Evan Rozier, who was betrayed to the Aurors by Severus, would rather die in battle than surrender. When he was studying in school, Evan, who was born in a noble family, bullied Severus, a poor boy from the slums, and turned his

The pet was tortured to death.

Killing a thorn was nothing to this murderous Death Eater. He had long forgotten it, but Severus still remembered it.

Patience is for revenge. There are few tastes sweeter than revenge in this world. The headmaster of Slytherin is such a vengeful person.

But his heart was not as dark and chaotic as Voldemort's.

The paints placed in the painting box are neat and orderly, and the brushes are also neatly placed. Many people put their stationery neatly at first, but over time they will become messy.

But in Severus's potion warehouse, every material is well managed in categories, so that if someone steals something, he can immediately detect it.

This is another fascinating thing about him besides his brain.

Being an ascetic man does not mean that he has no desire, but that he can control this desire. The dense buttons on Severus's coat are always buttoned to the throat, Harry wears a pullover T-shirt and zipper jacket, and Sirius

I like to wear leather jackets and ride a flying motorcycle while wearing them.

Many women like Sirius's wild and uninhibited style, but she prefers Severus's style.

Errare humanum est.

It is human nature to make mistakes.

Everyone has different tastes, and everyone has their own preferences. She just likes to make complex and elusive people like him lose control.

Just like some people like to read simple and popular love stories, and some people like to read brain-burning suspense novels. Wisdom is a plump and juicy fruit. You will die if you eat it. However, when you eat it, the taste is extremely sweet. Even for

It's worth dying for that bite.

"Do you like it?" He hugged her from behind and said in a standard "Queen's accent".

"I like it more than I like it." She looked at him and whispered, "It's like a work of art."

"Your botanical garden..."

"That's another story." Pomona lowered her head and put away the painting box.

"You can plan it carefully like the Padua Botanical Garden." he said, his voice rising.

"No."

"Why?" he asked.

"Because that is my freedom." She zipped up the zipper and held the painting box in her hand. "Do you want me to resist you like a resistance organization? Sir?"

The former headmaster had an angry look on his face, obviously he still remembered the troubles caused by Dumbledore's Army.

Neville Longbottom loves to paint slogans everywhere.

"Come on, last time we were walking on the Slavic Embankment, I saw an Oriental goods store. Let's go and see what goodies there are." She said, holding his arm.

“What’s so cool about cheap stuff?”

"Believe me, this store is different." She said confidently, and then she disappeared.

Liberalism emerged from the struggle with the supremacy of religious power in the Middle Ages. The church has a strong "tolerance" power, but the secular courts are different.

Take as an example the proceedings of Bernard Guy, the prefect of the French Inquisition.

Punishment: penance (divided into simple penance and humiliating penance), confiscation of property, imprisonment, and execution at the stake (the number of executions at the stake was small and geographically distinct).

posthumous trial

All punishments are carried out by secular authorities, and the death penalty is generally targeted at those who refuse to repent and those who fall into heresy again. The decision to punish heretics by burning them is made by the Inquisition to collect evidence, interrogate, and record

Those who do not repent will be sentenced to death by fire by the secular powers.

There is a limit to tolerance.
