“…… The meteorite may have fallen at a speed of more than Mach 50 and cut into the atmosphere at an almost vertical angle. Can you understand? This means that after entering the atmosphere with a thickness of more than 1,000 kilometers, it can only be measured in seconds! ”

"In an instant, it will only be a matter of a moment!"

"Therefore, even if there is more accurate data to provide data on the coordinates of the landing point, the possibility of intercepting meteorites in the atmosphere is very small. The advice I gave after my calculations was that you could be prepared to try to intercept, but you had to empty the crowd within the danger zone first. Moreover, be prepared for a failed interception. ”

The news of Maca's disappearance was only made known to Professor McGonagall by a letter sent by Sinista's family.

At that time, because the elder Victor wanted to see Maca, McGonagall contacted Lupin, who was busy, but then heard that Maca was taken away by a burst of light.

And now that Maca has finally returned, after solving the emergency in the dungeon of the Ministry of Magic, he just fills his stomach and goes to the house of old Victor.

After all, the big rock in the sky that is flying towards the earth is also an existence that cannot be ignored.

Right now, Maca was sitting in Old Victor's bedroom, looking at the waste manuscript paper that Old Victor had thrown everywhere, while listening to the other party's calculations for the recent period.

At the end, old Victor put the calculation results in his hand on the table, looked at Maka with some suspicion and said:

"I probably know that most of you wizards are quite ignorant of science and technology, so I've kept it as simple as possible. You...... How much can you understand? ”

As far as old Victor said, he really tried not to involve all kinds of principles and theorems, and did not even mention the calculation formula, but only told the results in a way that ordinary people could understand.

But even so, he wasn't sure that Maca would understand.

Because, judging from the time he spent with his wife Aurelia, he knew how lacking common sense these so-called wizards were.

Of course, if the elder Victor really explained it from the realm of pure theory, the complex data and calculus process would definitely not be understood by Maca, who still remembers some Muggle knowledge.

But old Victor has said it so plainly now, and he, a "former Muggle", is not as confused as ordinary wizards.

"In other words, you think that with the current level of science and military alone, it is basically impossible to intercept meteorites?" He thought for a moment and said, "So, what if it was supplemented with magic?" Or in other ways, say ...... outside the atmosphere."

"I don't know about magic or anything, it's up to you wizards to think about," Old Victor said, grabbing a piece of paper, "If you have any magic that can counteract such a huge impulse, then I don't have a problem with you just using the buffer to solve the problem." ”

He slipped the paper into Maca's hand and continued:

"As for the extra-atmospheric ...... The problem now is that only one of the coordinates of the landing point is more accurate, and we can't simulate the trajectory outside the atmosphere, which makes it difficult for us to capture where the 'little rock' has flown in time. ”

Old Victor was right.

That 300-foot-diameter stone is really big enough for a person; Don't talk about the universe, just compared to near-Earth space, it can really only be regarded as a "small stone" that can't be smaller.

As Maca fell into deep thought, Old Victor handed another piece of paper to Maca, as if he was not satisfied with such difficult thoughts.

“…… And," he said, "there's another, worse model of falling." ”

This paper is easier to understand, because it also has a non-complicated sketch on it.

"You mean, that stone could also be in a lot of friction with the atmosphere...... Natural disintegration? ”

"It's not impossible." "In fact, there are even a few precedents of disintegration and explosion in the accounts of meteorites falling to Earth—obviously, that would make the consequences even more uncontrollable." ”

If it is only intercepted, the subsequent disintegration maca can still be controlled, but if the meteorite disintegrates naturally, the timing of the disposal is completely unpredictable.

"By the way, you just said ...... Is the angle at which a meteorite enters the atmosphere vertical? ”

……

By the time Maca came out of Old Victor's house, it was already getting dark.

He pushed open the gate to the slightly neglected front yard, and soon caught a glimpse of the trench-coated wizard in the weedy, jagged yard.

"Oh, you're still here?"

Maca said hello casually, still sorting out her thoughts, ready to think about where to go next. But at this moment, the wizard in the trench coat came silently and stood near him without a word.

"What if...... I mean, if," said the other party coldly, as if to himself, "if something is about to happen with very bad consequences, it won't help to say it...... Do you think I should say it or not? ”

This voice is still hoarse, and it still seems quite thin, but it has long lost the decisiveness that Maca had when she first heard it.

To be honest, Maca didn't know where the change came from, because he had no way of knowing how the other party was in front of him.

But he finally understood that the reason why this mysterious wizard intervened in this chaotic battle was undoubtedly for a purpose.

It is only for some reason that the original firm belief has been eroded again and again.

"Can't you hold on?" Maca didn't look at the other party, he just looked at the sunset in the distance, and said softly, "Believe it or not, actually, I may be able to understand how you feel right now—if you think it's better not to be changed, then just watch from the sidelines!" ”

After a moment of silence, the trench-robed wizard stood silently, and then said after hesitation:

"I don't have to say anything about that. But what if...... What if I said that you would regret not letting me say it afterwards? ”

"Me?" When Maca heard this, she was a little surprised and said, "Why...... Oh I mean, why would you hesitate for my regrets? Aren't you here for your own sake? ”

Originally, Maca couldn't determine the identity of the other party, and now that he did, he didn't know who this mysterious wizard was.

However, from a certain point of view, it seems that he shouldn't know the identity of the other party.

"Hmm...... All right! Maca suddenly shook her head and said, "Although I definitely don't want to regret it, if my regret will eventually lead to a good ending, then it's not unacceptable?" ”

Saying this, he spread his hands and said:

"So, do you think the ending is good?"

As far as Maca was concerned, the trench-robed wizard thought for a long time before pursing his lips and nodding.

"It's good."

At least for myself, the end result will be "good", because that's what I'm here for. But what if you look at it from Maca's point of view?

"It's going to end well," said the other man's gaze under the brim, staring straight at Maca's side face, "for me, for Mr. McLean, I'm sure that's going to be the best ending." ”

"Really?" Maca nodded, "It's better to do that!" But you have to remember that if I don't agree with you, then we're enemies. ”

No, we'll never be enemies—the trench-coated wizard had a secret phrase in his heart, but he couldn't get it out of his mind.

It didn't take long for Maka to finally say after sorting out everything that should be done one by one:

"I should have researched what those Muggle mutations were all about...... What about you? If you have something else to do, see you another day! ”

"No," said the other man quietly, "I don't need to do anything yet." ”

"Oh?"

Maca thought for a moment, and had to beckon:

"Then come with me......"

Even if he let the other party act on his own, he can't really feel at ease, so it's better to just take it with him.

"That's really embarrassing!" Maca couldn't help but think.

……

However, the person who is struggling right now is obviously not only Machata.

“…… That's right, Maca is back! ”

In a remote corner of Hogwarts Castle, Hermione heard Luna say it herself.

Yes, the return of Maca must be a cause for rejoicing. Although it seems that Luna is credited with it, and she Hermione Granger is not able to help in the end.

But this little thing, with the joy of Maca's return, seems to be no longer so important.

What is making Hemin embarrassed now is whether she should take the time to meet Maca - you know, Luna saw Maca in the first place!

Shaking her head, putting the thoughts out of her mind for a moment, Hermione asked:

"Luna, you just said that you went with Professor Flitwick to find it? Tell me, how did you find Maca? ”

After a pause, before Luna could answer, she continued to ask.

"I've heard from Lupin that both Kingsley and Sirius have gathered so many Aurors to look around," she said, "but there hasn't been any news for days, it's not that easy to find, is it?" And ......"

Listening to Hermione's barrage of questions, Luna felt like she was almost overwhelmed by the chatter.

After Hermione poured out all the questions that were entrenched in her heart, she looked at the other party's mouth with a curious look and said:

"Hermione, would you like some Gordigan tea?"
