Chapter 149: Faith
Now that Emily already knows Maple's wizarding identity, the only driver in the car who needs to be avoided is unconscious. Maple boldly cast her magic, and in an instant, the unconscious driver and Emily swapped places.
Emily was not surprised and skillfully started a fire and drove the car.
Yes, Emily is skilled in both moves, but that's about it. Although she also got a driver's license, she was usually driven by her chauffeur, and she was not proficient in driving.
Maple quickly thought of the legendary word that would make future generations of drivers smell, the female driver.
To be fair, the average driving skills of male drivers are not necessarily much higher than those of female drivers, but perhaps it is the destructive power and impact caused by female drivers when they have accidents that make female drivers synonymous with road killers.
Emily is clearly one of the road killers, and at first she saw Emily skillfully driving on fire, and thought she was an experienced old driver, but as soon as she started the car, she immediately revealed her true form.
Maybe Ron's skills are better than her, but it's impossible to say, after all, you don't have to obey the traffic rules to drive in the sky, and it is unknown what level Ron's driving skills are, and he even used the Confusion Charm when he got his driver's license in the Muggle world after Voldemort was killed.
Emily drives the car around like a headless fly, but luckily there are two wizards in her car, and she is asked to drive like a road killer without showing the destructive power of a road thug.
Maple and Hermione work together, Hermione uses magic to control the car's steering, while Maple deals with the bullets that come in from time to time.
The bullets decelerated and deflected, hitting the tires and body of the car from time to time, and soon the car was riddled with holes. It's just that there were no casualties among the people in the car, not even injuries.
And the car looked very miserable from the bullets, but the car was still driving normally, and the fuel tank, various key equipment and body structure of the car were not damaged in the slightest.
With Hermione's help, Emily quickly drove the car away from the remote area, and the killers chased them all the way, but when they reached the densely populated downtown area, the killers did not dare to strike again.
In the economically underdeveloped slums, they still have a way to cover up, and if they shoot in the downtown area, it will be a provocation to the government.
While Britain is not as strict as the Celestial Empire has a gun ban, it is also not as unscrupulous as the Yankees.
What's more, this is London, the capital of the United Kingdom, and the sound of gunfire can easily alarm the government, and once it is published in the newspapers, it is even more of a big deal.
After arriving in the downtown area, the killers did not dare to pursue it anymore. They didn't know about wizards and magic, so the strange incident just now made them doubt their marksmanship.
"Did Alan Smith do it?" One of the possible targets of the mastermind in Maple is Alan Smith, who is soft and hard, and after the marriage proposal fails, he becomes angry and murderous, which is a common routine of the gangster businessman.
"Probably!" Emily said in a somewhat gloomy tone.
It seems that after today's events, Emily has become a little depressed, and it is no wonder that it is difficult for anyone to get up to the top of their spirits when they encounter this kind of thing for the first time. What's more, two years ago, Emily was just a down-and-out person who didn't even have a job.
Maple felt that today's events were not a bad thing for Emily, and that people need to experience to grow.
Moreover, Britain is not a Celestial Empire with strict gun bans after all, and Maple feels that it is necessary for the Light of Hope Company to equip some firearms.
Britain was not as frantic as the Yankee arms dealers, and their guns were not as widespread as the Yankees. But the ordinary people here rarely encounter shootings, but they are not worthy of the big guys' shots, and after two years of rapid development of the Light of Hope Company, there are finally traditional chaebol tycoons who can't help but take action.
Maple was ready to cast a powerful and long-lasting defensive spell on Emily's new car, claiming that it was a custom-built car made of bulletproof glass and steel at a great cost.
Although bulletproof cars were not particularly popular in the wealthy circle at this time, it was not impossible to have bulletproof equipment and materials.
So as long as no one from the wizarding world debunked the truth, Muggles couldn't see anything special about Emily's car.
Maple thinks that body armor should also be given to Emily, and after today's incident, Maple suddenly finds that if Emily is killed, it will be really troublesome for his Ray of Hope plan.
With a trip to Hogwarts to study magic, Maple simply doesn't have much time to deal with the worldly world, so it's necessary for him to give Emily the best protection.
Body armor was not difficult for Maple, and there was no such super-powerful sniper rifle that could break the iron armor spell from a distance in this era.
However, it is to cast the Iron Armor Charm directly on the clothes, this kind of magic cannot last long, and the method of inscribed magic with inscriptions has not yet been mastered by Maple.
Fortunately, with the knowledge of the constant frequency of magic that Maple had received from Ravenclaw, it was enough to keep Emily safe for a year after casting a spell on her.
This is limited to the Muggle world, where there are no supernatural powers, and in the wizarding world, no magic can guarantee a person's safety for a year.
"There's a problem, I'll go out and deal with it!" After Maple finished speaking, he disappeared directly from the car and disappeared into thin air.
"Ahh Apparition is the magic that every wizard who is new to magic wants to master, and its appearance and disappearance out of thin air is also the most magical magic for Muggles. Emily saw Maple disappear directly from the car in the rearview mirror, and immediately couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
"Still an old acquaintance, Dallux!"
The equivalent of Crabbe and Goyle of the Ministry of Magic would normally be wizards who had been bewitched by someone who had been bewitched.
Maple and Hermione cast so much magic that it triggered the Ministry of Magic's monitoring.
Even if an adult was casting magic in the Muggle world, the Ministry of Magic could detect it, but there was no trace of it, and they couldn't confirm who the wizard was casting. They can only confirm the location of the spell, and then the abusing of the magic division can only get to the scene as soon as possible, and if they are lucky, they can catch the murderer, but most of the time the target has already apparitioned away.
So the poor guys caught by the Ministry of Magic's Department of Misuse of Magic are basically the unlucky ones who are not good at apparition or have problems with apparition.
So in the wizarding world, learn phantom shifting and manifestation well, and you are not afraid of doing anything bad.
Because wizards who do bad things can apparate without fear, but people in the Ministry of Magic can't apparate directly to Muggles.
There were no traces on Maple's body to monitor, but Hermione's traces were touched. It's just that Hermione is far away from home because of the trace's flaws, and the Ministry of Magic has no way of knowing who the trace's target is, so they can only send someone to confirm it in person.
"Faint!" Delix's stupid face fell straight down.
It was so easy to succeed, a stupid big man like Dlux was not driven away by the Ministry of Magic, and the level of combat power of the Ministry of Magic can be imagined.
Because the magic fluctuates and the trace reaction is detected at the same time, I thought that the target was just a student, so the Ministry of Magic would make a move that was obviously not taken to heart by sending only one person, Delix!
Maple dragged the unconscious Dlux to a trash can and cast a little magic spell, and Dralux's clothes immediately became torn and worn, his shoes were torn and his toes were exposed. His hair had also become messy and covered in dust and stains.
His face also looked dirty, in order to allow Delix to beg for more money, Maple also sponsored to help Delix remove several teeth, turning his teeth black and yellow, and it looked like he hadn't brushed his teeth for a long time.
In the end, Maple humanely supported Dlux with a dilapidated box containing several broken coins.
After dressing up Drax, Maple sneered, and then used his communication watch to send it to Moments, sent the image to Hermione, and walked away triumphantly.
Finding a place where no one was around, Maple apparantized back into the car.
It's so convenient to have a communication watch, even if Emily keeps moving her bearings while driving, as soon as the spatial location is determined through Hermione's watch, Maple can instantly apparilate back.
Maple and Hermione stayed overnight at Emily's, and they used Emily's phone to call the Grangers and tell them not to worry.
The next day, after a night of cooling, Emily seemed to be back to her old glory.
She gladly accepted the magical protection that Maple had offered her, and when she saw Emily regain her sobs, she told Emily all the proposals she had in mind before she came.
Emily was instantly shocked, this time even more surprising than the magic she had seen of Maple. She didn't expect Maple to have such a forward-looking vision for business, and most of what Maple said was something she and many of the company's top executives didn't expect.
Although Maple thought of a lot, it was all a bit of bits and pieces. He just knows the future, where he has any foresight, he doesn't really have any business talent himself.
Emily worked hard, wrote down all the suggestions that Maple had suggested, and then compiled a complete plan report, and immediately called the main person in charge of the company to a meeting to discuss it, and immediately began to prepare for the implementation of the plan that Maple said.
On this day, Emily also took Maple to the company's headquarters and asked him to have a good tour. Although Maple was not directly involved in the company's business, without Maple, Hope would not have existed, let alone achieved what it is today.
After a successful company meeting, Emily also wanted to make a show for Maple on a whim. In her opinion, Maple is the owner of the company.
It is inconvenient for Maple to show up as he is now, but if he does not show up, he can still contact everyone as the initiator of the Light of Hope badge.
"Before we start, people might have doubts about my identity. But many of you here were among the first to receive the Light of Hope badge that I presented, so I'll start by talking about the first time we met that only we knew about each other... ”
"I want to thank you guys for just providing an idea and didn't expect to grow this idea into the company it is today in such a short period of time...
"I'm sorry that for some special reasons, I can't fight with you...
"Although the company originated from my vision, the specific achievements were made by all of you, and the company does not belong to me." Hearing this, many of the people present were visibly relieved, and the same was true of the owners of the first batch of Hope Light Badges, people were indeed real animals.
“。。。 I still vaguely remember the scene when we first came into contact, and I hope that you will not forget the original intention at that time, and do not forget the dream we made together at that time. I give you my hope, and I hope that you will continue to pass on your hope to everyone in need, so that hope will shine like the sun on the world! ”
Maple asked Emily to help spread his words throughout the company, and just now, he used a card that he had thought was scrap, and then when he spoke impassionedly, he got a new strength-
The Power of Faith
How to get it!
It was a surprise to Maple, but it was a nice surprise! “”
