Harry Potter: Charlie's Candy Factory

Chapter 102 Large-scale weapon fighting incident!

At night, unlike the hustle and bustle of the day, the Woolworth Building located on Broadway is surprisingly calm.

All the lights in the hall have been extinguished, only the big clock hanging on the top is still maintaining its constant operation.

Its operation has never been heard of since the Bigfoot Rebellion in 1892, which caused the Magic Council to relocate here from Washington.

The continuous combination of magic power and machinery is similar to the assembly line facilities of Charlie Factory from a certain angle.

Just like this, it was hung in the most conspicuous position of the entire hall to ensure that every wizard who walked in from the main entrance could notice its existence at the first sight.

Over time, in a sense, it seems to have become another symbol of this building, and even the Magic Congress, which is well known to the world.

On its clock face, it is not the time marked by ordinary clocks, but a colored area, and inside the area, there are words representing the level of danger.

Zero Threat (Green)

Level [-]: Low Threat (Green)

Level [-]: Moderate Threat (Green)
Level [-]: High Alert (Blue)
Level [-]: Hazardous (yellow)
Level [-]: Severe: Unexplained activity (orange)
Level Six: Emergency (Red)

"…………"

Sierra Stewart stood silently in the hall, holding two cups of freshly brewed coffee in her hands, raised her head, and looked at the big clock, feeling an inexplicable depression in her heart for a moment.

"It's not at all what it was originally imagined."

Sierra Stewart lowered her head, watching the heat rising from the white porcelain cup in her hand.He muttered to himself in a voice only he could hear.

She has been here countless times, and she has also seen this amazing big clock countless times, and felt that it could vaguely represent the long history of the American magic world.

When I was a child, the Aurors who shuttled up and down the elevator and in the corridors, with their heads held high and their strides erratic, were the ones Sierra most yearned for.Whether it is the clever magic that comes at hand, or the philosophy and creed of punishing rape and eliminating evil, all of them made her heart throb when she was young, and she secretly regarded it as the goal she pursued all her life.

In order to be able to realize his ideal, become a qualified Auror.Sierra naturally made great efforts for this.

Finally, when she entered the Magic Congress as an outstanding graduate of Ilvermorny with excellent grades in all subjects, and became an Auror of the Serious Case Investigation Division...

But I found that everything was very different from my original idea.

Due to the focus of the Magic Congress on these incidents in recent years, the current law and order conditions in the American magic world are better than when I was young, not at 01:30.

She was never given any chance to fight crimes and realize her life aspirations. Until now, it has been almost three months since she joined the job. Archives, and the tedious routine of making coffee for older senpai.

Sera shook her head, and threw these thoughts out of her mind, then raised her head again, and looked at the big clock in front of her with some kind of hope.

The big clock still didn't move, as if it was in a deep sleep.

"Hey" came another faint sigh from her mouth, Sera finally turned around, gave up the slightest hope in her heart, and walked towards the person holding the coffee and facing the serious case investigation department as if resigned to her fate. Go to the office.

However, just as she turned around and walked further and further away, the big clock that had been sleeping woke up.

The gears that hadn't been rotated for an unknown period of time were biting together again, making a weak and slightly jerky "clicking" sound.

The voice was pitifully low, but it was so clear in this lonely hall.

"Huh?!" Sera seemed to have been cast some kind of spell, and her original steps forward stopped abruptly.Her pupils shrank first, and then her eyes subconsciously opened wider. Accompanied by the "thumping" heart beating faster and faster, she turned her head back again.

The next moment, an uncontrollable joy appeared on that pretty face with a bit of immaturity in it! !
The big clock that had been sleeping for an unknown amount of time finally started to run! ! ! !The pointer, which had been pointing to the green area, finally turned towards other areas with the "clicking" sound of the gears snapping together.

Her small mouth was slightly opened, and her eyes looked at the moving pointer with a strange expression, and she didn't even dare to blink, as if she was afraid that it was just her own hallucination.

Finally, the pointer stopped, and finally stopped firmly at the junction of blue and yellow.

"Big case!!!!" Sierra screamed in her heart, and almost shouted directly.

Immediately afterwards, before she could be excited for too long, a burst of noisy footsteps behind her interrupted her original thoughts.

"Selah Stewart!!" That was the voice of the senior who worked the night shift with her today.It's just that compared to the original laziness, there is a bit more seriousness and seriousness in the voice that Serra has never seen before.

"Large-scale wizard fight near the Blind Pig bar in the Bronx!!!"

Sera turned her head and saw a few colleagues hurriedly putting on their coats and holding wands.Run to the outside.

While running, the senior turned his head and shouted at Sera anxiously.
"Come on! Put down those two cups of coffee! Grab your wand, we've got big things to do!!!!"

There was a soft "crash", and the two white porcelain coffee cups in Sera's hands fell from his hands, and they were smashed to pieces on the smooth marble floor, turning into a pile of scum.

"Yes!!!"

Her face was flushed, and her eyes sparkled with excitement.

At this moment in the heart, the flame that was about to be extinguished seemed to be filled with a bundle of dry wood, and with a "boom", it ignited again.

"For this moment, I have been preparing for a long time!!!"

Not caring about the mess on the ground, looking at the backs of the seniors rushing out, she responded loudly, and took out the magic wand she was carrying with her from her uniform pocket.

A pair of leather boots stepped out fiercely, followed the people in front with a few steps, and rushed towards the gate without hesitation.

"Come on! After practicing the Disarming Charm for so long, you can finally look like a real Auror."

Feeling the familiar feel of the spiral lines of the wand, Sera murmured.
