Chapter 609 President’s Entrustment

   EMI is not only showing live-action movies, but also animated movies, including a Japanese cartoon called Spirited Away.

   A 10-year-old girl Chihiro moved from the city to the countryside with her parents. Unexpectedly, on the way of moving, the family went astray for super shortcuts and ended up getting lost. They entered a strange world, a paradise where "gods" took a vacation.

  Ordinary restaurants are opened during the day and closed at night, but the world opens at night and rests during the day. There are restaurants everywhere, there are a lot of delicious food, but the most magnificent is the hot spring hotel run by Mrs. Tang.

  The Japanese are also trying to spread their own culture, including cherry blossoms, hot springs, and cartoons.

  Werewolf biting is not only for reproduction, but also a way of life. Why can’t you eat sashimi and can’t eat raw meat?

  Lifestyle is not only the needs of biological instinct, but also the guidance of culture. The same is eating. Primitive people eat blood and drink blood. Modern people fry and cook. The very raw steak that Bill eats can't be accepted even if there are many British people.

  Cooking food is first of all to eliminate bacteria and parasites. Parasites were found in the female corpses of Mawangdui Han Tomb. Sashimi was introduced to Japan from China. There is an idiom called 荍卍人. The sashimi refers to fish slices. At that time, Chinese people ate freshwater fish instead of sea fish.

According to the autopsy of the Mawangdui Han Tomb, Mrs. Xin Zhui caused gallstones due to improper diet. The stone incarceration caused an acute attack of biliary colic, which in turn promoted coronary artery spasm, increased myocardial hypoxia, and eventually suffered sudden death and parasite It doesn't matter.

   Silent and Silent are parasitic, and the curse on Pomona is also related to “parasitic”.

  After nightfall, Chinatown feels like an "amusement park" in the world of Spirited Away, with late-night snack restaurants in the evening. After watching the movie, both of them were hungry. When passing by a Japanese restaurant, they didn't go in, and instead went to a "Hu Ji" restaurant.

  That shop is very strange. The Chinese character sign is Hu, but the English sign is WU. It sells Cantonese dim sum.

Shrimp dumplings, siu mai, char siu buns, and mille cakes are only a little bit each. The carts pushed by the elderly waitresses are full of steamers. Pomona inexplicably thinks that she and the Hogwarts Express will sell magic The candy witch is alike.

  Hefpaff Lounge is next to the kitchen. Everyone is hungry in the middle of the night. It is very convenient to go to the kitchen to find something to eat.

  If you don’t want your waistline to get bigger and bigger, the best way is to control your mouth. However, the shrimp dumplings were so delicious that Pomona ate three cages by herself.

  Severus looked at her with disgust and watched her mouth full of oil, but he didn't tell her that he would not want her if he gained weight, like Barrett.

Slytherin is too hypocritical. The first rule of the courtyard is to stay elegant at all times, and of course it also includes table manners. Hefpaff doesn’t talk when eating like Gryffindor—everyone is busy eating hard, who If you have time to talk, what should I do if the delicious food is robbed by others?

A Hefpaff who is not a "gourmet" is not a good Hefpuff. When he feels a little full after eating, Hefpuff's table will chat in a whisper. Before this, there is no great power to stop him. The little badgers eat.

   "Oh, my goodness, it's so delicious!" Pomona was about to cry with happiness, how could there be such a delicious dumpling!

   "Don't sing here." Severus said with a stiff face, "If you dare to sing, I won't go out to dinner with you."

  Pomona changed to stomping, she just wanted to come up with an aria to praise the shrimp dumplings!

It used to be very hard to stay up late, but now it has become a date. Slytherin is just this cunning, accurately calculating the workload, and never wasting. The last time I went to Beihai was to turn over the battle, and it was a matter of life and death. This time they are expanding. Zhanguo, why go to the North Sea to blow the cold wind?

  Although they changed their appearance by blindfolding, they still generally see that this is a combination of beauty and ugly man. Pomona inexplicably feels like Scarlett and Bryder who are honeymooning in Orleans.

  She feels very happy. Food is one of her rare hobbies, just like Albus likes to eat sweets.

  What's the point of being alive if you are deprived of this pleasure?

  She couldn’t help closing her eyes and letting her senses focus on the tip of her tongue. Some people like to close their eyes when drinking and listening to music. This is how she enjoys “art”.

  Hahaha, vegetarians, can they understand the fun?

  "Good evening, sir and madam." At this moment, she suddenly heard someone talking in front of her.

  She slowly opened her eyes and found that it was Mr. Lin, the president of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

  "Excuse me, do you mind if I sit here?"

   "Please sit down." Severus said politely, "Mr. Lin is not going home yet so late?"

"Something has gone wrong, come and deal with it." Mr. Lin sighed. "Some people leave their hometown because there is no future they want. They hope to go to a new place and start again, but when they arrive in a new place, they find it and I imagined it was different. The Immigration Bureau raided my friend’s factory just now, and I told him not to use illegal immigration."

   "There is a black factory in Chinatown?" Pomona asked.

   "No." Mr. Lin said categorically, "Absolutely not."

  Pomona glanced at the waiters and chefs who were working overtime in the middle of the night, and did not speak any more.

  "The police are now much better than my great-grandfather's generation. Have you two heard of Salem?"

  Pomona suddenly felt that the shrimp dumplings in her mouth were not fragrant anymore.

   "Have heard." Severus said cautiously, "What does Mr. Lin mention it for?"

"In the early days, my great-grandfather and they went to the United States. It was the era of the Great American Railway. He and many of his countrymen went to repair the railway in Oregon. After the railway was repaired, he started business in Salem. The foreman at the time said that the Chinese were With such a small physique, how could it be possible to complete such a heavy work. Later, a man named Benjamin said that we built the Great Wall. Of course, we had to use Chinese to build it. My great-grandfather had studied for a few years, and he knew how to read. People built the railway together, and then someone from Hongmen asked him for help. At that time, we were fighting for the site with the Portuguese, Mexicans, and Japanese. We were separated from the whites by the railway, and everyone did the tea room and laundry. The business of the store, but the American police and the white people colluded and made it difficult for us to continue. Sometimes people secretly set fire to our house, and no one took care of it. They just wanted to force us to close the door so that the white people could only do business. "Mr. Lin suddenly had a meal when he said that. He was too emotional just now, forgetting that there were two white men sitting in front of him.

  Severus smiled at him, "We will not participate in the Muggle dispute."

"No... not like that." Mr. Lin was sweating, and then said, "In order to store things and prepare for escape, the shops facing the street have dug underground caves. The people from Hongmen are here. Let us connect these tunnels. Get up and do... the trade of smuggling gold. At that time, the largest gold mine was in California. Gold prospectors were fighting for an inch of mine. We don’t ask where the gold came from, as long as we give it to us. For what they want, my great-grandfather used to work in the vault in the center building. There is an underground bar in it. He has seen people like you."

   "I can't believe it." Severus smiled and shook his head. "You mean there is an underground China town under our feet?"

  "The United States does have it. I don’t know if there is one in the UK. I also immigrated to the UK with my father later.

   "Why do you want to immigrate?"

  Severus patted the back of the head after Pomona asked.

   "What are you doing?" She asked pitifully, touching the place being photographed.

   "Use your smart brain." Severus took a look at her, and then continued to look at Mr. Lin. "You didn't say that at the dinner table that day?"

"There was a pony at the time. I was just a small businessman. Achang was very respectful to him. I would never know how to die if I offended him." Mr. Lin sighed. "Something strange happened to the dungeon afterwards. There were a lot of murals overnight. At first I thought it was a prank, but people kept missing. We asked the wandering Taoist priest to watch it. He told us to stop using these tunnels and move away as soon as possible. Now the city has become a farmland. Up."

   "Do you suspect that those disappearances are related to the Salem Witch Trials?" Pomona asked like "opening up".

"It's not a suspicion, those women who died tragically have turned into ghosts to kill them." Mr. Lin said with a pale face, "I heard that some people are also missing in the London Underground. Can the two of you investigate it so that I can sleep at ease." "

  Pomona looked at Severus, who was now looking at Mr. Lin thoughtfully.

  Although the final investigation result of the Salem trial was caused by the accidental consumption of ergot-containing flour, no one thought that the wronged witches would retaliate after their death.

  The Chinese believe that there are ghosts, and there is a phenomenon as mysterious as the Mawangdui Han Tomb. Although the female corpse is not as bizarre as Tutankhamun’s curse, it is also full of doubts.

  Pomona never thought that Salem would also be related to the Chinese. Fate is really amazing.
