Chapter 371: Not Taken Seriously
Driving all the way, Zhao Mai led everyone to the center of London, at the junction of Whitehall and Knights of the Guards, that is, the British War Office. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info In times of war, this is a heavily protected area, and in order to prevent sabotage by spies, a cordon is in place from three blocks away in order to check everyone's passes and check carry-on luggage for non-staff. "theγ»che" definitely can't pass the inspection, and Zhao Mai doesn't want them to check either, so stopping the car and walking over is the only option.
"In other words, you are the only one who is a staff member, and everyone behind you is a visitor?" the guard stopped James, although he confirmed that there was no problem with his documents, but he couldn't let Zhao Mai and the others go. "There are too many people, so you have to report this matter to your commander and get permission before you can let it go. β
There is no way, everyone can only stand on the side of the road to blow the wind and inhale the fog. Major Trevor complained a few words about the tediousness and slowness of the British, but no one answered him. Tolkien in England was going to accompany his wife, and the others were not "normal people" of this era at all, and they were not interested in the topic of Americans complaining about the British. Diana suddenly became very interested in Dogian, and one tall beauty kneaded and pinched another, attracting the constant sideways attention of the vigilant soldiers.
Just as Logan was starting to get impatient, James finally returned. He was accompanied by a colonel-officer with a two-puffed mustache, holding a handwritten order, and led the group over. They were placed in a separate reception room at the War Department, and apart from chairs and a long conference table, the only thing they could see was the "sun never sets" map of the empire's territory on the wall.
The lieutenant colonel left after they had entered, leaving only two guards and MI5 James. "Who are we waiting for?" said Major Trevor, "didn't you say that you were going to treat people, and that the patients were not in a hurry?
James wiped his sweat, smiled slightly, and said, "The chief is still having a meeting upstairs, just wait a while." β
Even if he didn't use the psychic ability, Zhao Mai felt that something was not normal. He glanced at the little flower in Ado's arms, and then the little flower condensed into an invisible body, flew through the ceiling, and scouted around. Diana saw Xiaohua and opened her mouth, but she still chose to be silent and did not expose her. Zhao Mai smiled at her and signaled her to be calm.
After a while, Xiaohua flew back, looking puffed out. "They lie. In addition to us, they found a lot of people to treat the disease. The meeting had already begun, but we were not called. I've seen weirdos in all sorts of uniforms, but they're obviously incompetent, and they're certainly not as good as you. The people quarreled during the meeting, and they also said...... He also said......"
"Well, I don't think they have anything good to say. Zhao Mai rolled his eyes and said into the air.
Everyone looked at him, but everyone already knew about Xiaohua's existence, so they quickly figured it out. The only people present who didn't understand the situation were James and the guards at the door, and they were obviously startled when they heard Zhao Mai suddenly speak.
Xiaohua's eyes rolled, and finally shook her head: "I don't want to say it, I'm insulting you anyway, and I don't trust your ability very much." β
Zhao Mai waved her hand at Xiaohua to calm her down, and then said to James: "When you reported, you already said that I had cured several patients, right?"
"Yes, I've already reported that. James quickly explained: "Because the person who is going to be treated is very important, we must be cautious, can you understand that?"
"I can understand that. Zhao Mai nodded and said to James, "What about the other thing? The wizard's curse spell and the role of contributing to the outbreak of this disease have also been reported by you?"
"Yes, I also reported that. James hurriedly said: "Although this kind of thing as a wizard sounds very magical, as an intelligence officer, it is impossible to choose not to report or misreport, please rest assured." β
Xiaohua said in Zhao Mai's ear: "Hmph, they don't believe it at all, and they also said that they want to leave us here and drive us out tomorrow morning." James's name is also mentioned, all associated with fantasy and unreality. I'll tell you, those fools above don't believe it at all. β
"Xiaohua, what floor are they on?" Diana interjected, startling Xiaohua. But since she can always see the invisible flower, it is not surprising to hear her voice. "On the fourth floor of the ...... That direction. Xiaohua couldn't tell the difference between southeast and northwest indoors, so she pointed in a direction with her index finger and poked it twice.
Diana leaned over her ears and listened intently in the direction of Little Flower's finger. After a while, she frowned, and then said, "Steve, they're wasting their time. β
Major Trevor immediately stood up, walked up to James, and said in a serious tone, "I ask to see your chief at once, immediately. If your commander doesn't want to see us, you keep looking until you find someone who is truly responsible. We'll just wait for you for half an hour, and then we'll wait no more. The people who created the plague are still at large, and we don't want to waste time here. β
"This ......," James looked at the crowd, finally knowing that he was in trouble. He wiped his sweat, left a sentence of "Don't be impatient here, don't leave", turned around and went out to find someone.
Logan slapped the table hard: "This kind of bureaucrat is what I hate the most!"
"Addo. The giant sat honestly with his head tilted, completely unaware of what was happening.
After about five minutes, there was three knocks on the door. The guard, who had been standing by the door with a serious face, walked out and was replaced by a frowning colonel. He looked at the crowd, his tone was a little impulsive, and said, "Who said that the plague event was done by wizards?"
"I," Zhao Mai stared at him, "It was I who found traces of the curse in the body of the germs of this flu, which was used to speed up the replication and spread of the virus." I also used the corresponding spell potion to dispel this effect, proving that it was indeed caused by a wizard's spell. β
"Oh, so you're the one who claimed to be able to cure this condition and invented the potion. The man said, "You're not a wizard, how do you know about the spell?" β
Zhao Mai looked at him with a frown, and suddenly realized: "You are not from the War Department, you are a wizard!" Although you are well hidden, there are still some energy fluctuations of the spell. β
"That's right, I'm from the Ministry of Magic, and I deny your accusations on behalf of the wizarding world! I advise you to do the same. If you want to gain fame and money, you can't do it this way!"
"Since the border was sealed, is the Ministry of Magic preparing to cover up the true situation of the plague? Denying it will not change the facts, but will lose the last chance to work together, the Ministry of Magic will not be so unwise, right?"
"You know the borders are sealed, that's wizards, but I haven't met you, and I'm pretty sure there are no wizards in Britain with the faces of the East. The man snorted: "Go back where you came from, and if you mess around again, I will take action!"
Zhao Mai looked at the friends behind him, turned his head and pinched his nose with a smile: "You can try it." (To be continued.) )
