Chapter 1587: "Justly" Bumped In
Although everyone in this world is different, to be honest, people are actually very adaptable. For example, the three Muggle researchers who were talking about cooking magic around Maca, and a mechanical maintenance engineer.
ββ¦β¦ Mr. McLean, I think the lady who has been serving us three meals these days could really go to London and open a civilian restaurant! The speed of cooking and the deliciousness that doesn't match it...... Oh, God! If she's willing, I'm sure she'll be able to crush all the ordinary restaurants in London! β
Maka, who had just accompanied a few people out of the alley, couldn't help but shake her head when she heard it.
Not to mention, the meal was served to the three broomsticks proprietress Madam Rosmerta, who had just made the hellish offer to open a restaurant in London...... Well, it's still unknown when London will be taken back from Helpo!
Seeing that the other three were about to continue, Maca immediately waved her hand and said:
"Alright, gentlemen...... I know you appreciate Madam Rosmerta's craftsmanship, but I'm afraid this is not the time to say so. As you know, Mr. Prime Minister and the Queen have asked you to stay here mainly to ask you to assist me in an important task, and tonight, we are going to work! β
Hearing Maca's reminder, the leading researcher nodded apologetically.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. McLean! Yes, we're going to work β rest assured! Although we have been told in advance that there will be danger, we will still do what we need to do! β
He was slightly solemn and said seriously:
"Even if a shell falls overhead in the next second, we will still stick to our position and prioritize completing the mission!"
However, before he could finish speaking, the maintenance engineer smiled and said, "If there are really shells, I think I am more likely to choose to run away." β
Maca, of course, could hear the joking hint in the other party's tone, but he walked along the side of the street:
"Dangerous...... I think there must be, and most likely not small. But you don't have to worry about that, because your mission will be over before the danger comes, and when it does, I will send you away at once. β
After all, there are few people who are not afraid of death. Even if they were to be in danger, Maca believed that if they had the choice, they would want to live well.
Hearing Maca's words, one of the researchers couldn't help but subconsciously ask:
"Mr. McLean, may I ask...... How are you going to 'send us away at once'?" β
Hearing this, Maca immediately shrugged her shoulders.
"It's like thisβ"
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately reached out and patted the four of them on the shoulders one by one. When he met the last maintenance engineer, he disappeared from the streets of Hogsmeade and reappeared on the road next to the radar station.
Obviously, when the four Muggles realized that they were in a different place, they immediately looked at each other with incredulous expressions.
"Oh my God! I thought I had seen the mystery and wonder of wizarding and magic these days, but who knew that there were such amazing abilities under this world! The leader couldn't help but say loudly, "Space movement? How does this work? How the hell do you do that? β
"If some of the contradictions between our two societies and our two knowledge systems can be resolved in the future, I wouldn't mind discussing them with you, because I happen to be studying these things......" Maka said casually, "but until then, put your curiosity aside!" Because some contradictions are rooted and ...... We have a lot more important to do. β
After that, he didn't say anything else, and walked to the radar station first.
Obviously, Maca's words just now were enough for the remaining four Muggles to hear a lot of information - they were naturally not stupid as outstanding researchers and engineers who had been selected.
After a moment's pause behind Maca, the four of them followed thoughtfully.
β¦β¦
"Mr. McLean, we've already set the parameters before, and the detection area is just above the doorway in front of the ruins over there. As soon as a flying object appears in the airspace overhead, we will immediately lock it down and track it...... But what will happen in a moment? β
Looking at the light of the various instruments in the station, the pictures are constantly updated on several displays, and a large number of numbers are changing, Maca can't help but sigh in her heart - the power of Muggle technology is undoubtedly not to be underestimated.
Seeing that the researcher in the lead turned around and asked himself a question after the operation, Maca spoke:
"I know that you must have doubts about this mission, after all, the most critical part of the content of the mission has never been released."
"I had predicted a long time ago that a meteorite was going to fall from the sky" - such a thing as if it had been uttered at a time when they had not adapted to wizarding and magic, it would have left a great deal of confusion and doubt in their minds.
You know, even wizards in this era have a hard time accepting the prediction of meteorite falls!
So, instead of bothering to explain it to them, it's better to wait until they have a little understanding of the magic of magic.
After a pause, Maca finally confessed:
"How many...... If I said that a meteorite would fall in front of that 'ruin' tonight...... Can you believe it? β
"Fall...... Meteorite? β
"That's right!" Maca bowed slightly, "Comet Haile-Pop not long ago, I think you all know about it, right?" And that comet has two comet nuclei and collided with each other once, as you must knowβ"
Because Comet Hale-Pop split into two during its flight, flying in two directions, this rare astronomical phenomenon has been widely reported in the Muggle world. Some astronomers observed and analyzed this phenomenon and came to relevant conclusions in a short time.
But......
"Mr. McLean, do you mean to say that when they collided with each other, they not only separated from a piece of debris, but also flew towards Earth?"
Looking at the stunned researcher, Maca shook her head slightly, her expression somewhat subtle.
"Exactly...... It's not 'flying towards the Earth', it's orbiting towards the Earth, and it's 'just happening' to hit it tonight! β
