Chapter 534: A Coincidental Encounter

Jon Hart just lay quietly half-lying on the marble, looking up at the ......

For some reason, the bright moon in the sky is particularly bright at this time, and the sound of cicadas in midsummer is so beautiful that even the otherwise dry air can smell a sweet smell.

"Poof!" ...... After staying like this for a while, he suddenly couldn't help but laugh. At the same time, in his mind, he recalled Astoria's shy and cute appearance just now.

Is this what happiness tastes like?

After a long pause, Jon raised his right arm and looked at his watch, and there were only ten minutes left.

The safest way to travel this longer distance from the UK to Greece is a portkey.

However, this kind of doorkey for long-distance travel is more risky to make, so it is necessary to apply for a reservation in advance with the Ministry of Magic's Transportation Division, and then the staff of the Transportation Division will make unified arrangements......

Of course, the portkey will take effect at a fixed time, and the staff of the Department of Communications will set the departure time on the portkey and release it to the wizard who applies for it, and if the portkey is missed and it teleports to Greece on its own, then you will have to go to the Ministry of Magic's Department of Transportation to apply for a new portkey.

Jon jumped off the marble and began to return the way he came.

Along the bluestone path, through the garden he had passed earlier, Astoria hurried over as he climbed down the silver ladder to the trapdoor in front of him.

There were still some undried droplets on her face, but you could tell that the flush had dissipated quite a bit, except that she still turned her head a little shyly when she bumped into Jon head-on.

"In ten minutes, we're about to go. Jon jumped down the silver ladder and reminded softly.

Astoria just nodded absentmindedly, and suddenly she pulled Jon's clothes and asked with a serious face, "Jon, is what you just said true?"

"Of course. Without thinking, Jon replied, "True." ”

"What about you...... So have you said something like that with other girls...... So...... That's why you're so skilled in front of me?"

Astoria continued to ask.

"How could it be...... I'm just expressing my truest emotions and thoughts in the simplest words......" Jon explained with a smile, "I've never been able to speak much except in front of you!"

"Really?" Astoria stared into Jon's eyes.

"It's true!"

"Then I'll trust you for now!" Astoria blinked, trying to hide the smile on her face.

Jon looked down at his watch again.

"Seven minutes to go...... The portkey is about to go!" he reminded softly.

"Ahh......h

“...... No, no, you're here now, and I'll wait for ......me in two minutes," she quickly added.

......

A few minutes later, in the dining room of Greengrass Manor—

"Astoria, why do I feel like you're suddenly getting weird?" Daphne Greengrass, who was already carrying a bulging backpack on her back, glanced at her sister with some curiosity.

"I ...... Are you alright...... Sister is you dazzled......" Astoria turned her back and pretended to bend down to get something.

"Are you ready, we're leaving. Jon was walking in through the door.

"Well, we're all set. Daphne nodded calmly.

"Very well!" Jon said, pulling a somewhat worn alarm clock out of his pocket.

There was a lot of rust on the shell of the alarm clock, the hour and minute hands were stuck together, and the second hand seemed to be broken in two, a kind of thing that no Muggle would pick up even if it was lost on the street.

"All you have to do is touch the portkey, and that's it, just stick out a finger—" Jon whispered.

He placed the alarm clock on the dining table and gently pressed the index finger of his left hand on it.

The Greengrass sisters were undoubtedly familiar with this way of traveling, and they didn't need a word from Jon...... Their two fingers pressed on each side of the alarm clock.

Jon glanced at his watch again—

"I am ready...... Last Minute ...... Thirty seconds...... Three...... Two...... One ......"

After counting down the word "one", suddenly there was an invisible force behind him, which jerked forward with an irresistible momentum, and he felt that his feet were off the ground and he was flying.

He could feel Astoria and Daphne on either side of him, their shoulders bumping into him from time to time.

The index finger was glued to the alarm clock, as if it had a strong magnetic force, and it kept pulling him.

They flew forward like a gust of wind, unable to see anything in front of them.

This kind of travel is very unpleasant, it can cause a strong feeling of pressure on the stomach at any time, and because of the long distance, the trip takes a little time......

About three to five minutes passed, and of course it could have been half a year.

The trip is over -

Jon's feet hit the ground hard, barely holding his balance.

It was pitch black and you couldn't see anything.

"Are you alright?" Astoria asked aloud, judging by the direction of the voice, her position was two or three yards directly in front of Jon.

"Oops......" and Daphne staggered and fell on top of him.

Jon quickly reached out and held her up.

At the same time, at this moment, he also seemed to have knocked down someone behind him.

It certainly wouldn't be her two traveling companions, for Astoria was already safe in front of him, and Daphne was being held by his hand.

"Who's ......" a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

There was a bit of panic and panic in that voice.

"Luminos!" Daphne Greengrass, after gaining a foothold, raised her wand in the direction where the voice was.

A flash of light flashed, and a familiar face was exposed in front of them.

"Harry Potter?" Daphne cried out in surprise.

That's right, the guy who just stood behind Jon was none other than Harry Potter.

He seems to be the only one around.

"Harry?" Jon asked, somewhat surprised, "Why are you here?"

At the same time, he looked around and couldn't help frowning: "Other...... Where is this?"
