Chapter 1175

In Solim's office, there are several portraits of people, all of which are used for communication and surveillance.

There are as many as four portraits of the queen used to spy and communicate with each other alone.

A portrait of Jackson in a wig and a cowhide vest hangs in St. George's Hall at Windsor Castle, another portrait of Old Tom standing in a landscape painting with a pitchfork is at Balmoral Castle, the Queen's summer residence in Scotland, and another of Lady Leila is hung in a room at the Palace of Holyroodhouse......

Finally, there is Buckingham Palace, which is personally in charge of Elizabeth II.

Of course, it wasn't the Queen herself, but a wizard who painted it and dropped a real portrait of the Queen in Buckingham Palace before she took on the task of keeping an eye on her.

The portraits in the office are only for the head of the department, and unlike the portraits of Hogwarts with very different personalities, the portraits in Solim's office are not so smart.

They don't go to the house to talk to other portraits or even quarrel like the Hogwarts portraits, they just stay motionless in their frames, and only start moving when they need to.

Movable portraits are made by sorcerers, a magical skill that has long been a monopolized knowledge. The Presbyterian subordinate institutions certainly deserve the best, and they certainly have the ability to get the best portraits, like the ones in Hogwarts, but the sluggishness and rigidity of these portraits in Solim's office is obviously deliberate, after all, another of their portraits is hung in a Muggle-infested area, and if the portrait is too active, then it is very likely to be discovered by sharp-eyed Muggles, resulting in unnecessary magical exposure.

She agreed, and we can meet now. "

Elizabeth II suddenly appeared inside a blank frame. Other portraits have also returned to their frames.

"Brabi!"

Solim shouted at his office door, and soon Brabby walked in.

"Mission?"

"Come with me to Buckingham Palace. "

Solim took out his wand and pointed at his robe, turning it into a crisp suit, and stomped his foot to put on a pair of shiny leather shoes.

"So formal?" said Brabi, looking at him in surprise.

"First assignment at work," Solim said, stretching out his hand and straightening his tie, "It's better to be formal, right?"

"Okay, let's go. Brabby did the same, turning his baggy robe into a formal suit.

On the west side of the hall there is a large room with fireplaces on three sides, each with several nameplates nailed to them indicating the destination in various languages.

Solim wasn't familiar with the area, but Bralby was a veteran driver, and he explained as he walked with Solim, "There are 39 fireplaces here, of which four lead to the UK: the Ministry of Magic, Diagon Alley, Southampton, and an air base in Oxfordshire. The first two are often used...... We walked directly to Diagon Alley, the Ministry of Magic was too crowded, and it was a bit of a hassle. "

Southampton is the seaport of the Navy, and Blaise Norton Royal Air Force Base in Oxfordshire, the largest air base in the United Kingdom, serving 15% of the Air Force, both of which are extremely important military installations, and it is only natural that the Muggle Affairs Authority has a network of flyways in both places.

Muggle Authority's fireplaces are premium, and of course they won't let users scratch their hands dirty by grabbing the powder. Solim only needs to walk directly into the fire to get to Diagon Alley through the Floo network.

Although the fireplace is a high-end item, the experience of Floo Network is as bad as ever, but it is tolerable for Solim, who has mastered phantom shifting.

It's like stepping out of a tumble washing machine in spin-off mode to a roller coaster that is tumbling, and although it feels the same in general, the capacity is much higher.

Diagon Alley is slightly more crowded during the day, thanks in large part to the Hogwarts holidays, where students can enjoy a good stroll around with their parents.

Gringotts and Weasley magic tricks are the most crowded places, and while they don't revert to the pre-war exaggeration, bumps and bumps on the road are inevitable.

"That's good," Solim pointed his wand at his face, changing his appearance slightly so that he wouldn't be recognized.

"It's a nice feeling to finally see the bustling Diagon Alley again. "

"False prosperity. Brabby was rather dismissive of this, "There is nothing to praise in the British wizarding world at all, except for Dumbledore himself, there is no wizarding community to show off, no thriving commercial center, and no characteristics of its own." "

Even after stepping into Buckingham Palace, Brabi still did not stop teasing the British wizarding world.....

"Quidditch hooligans are a British specialty, but there have never been any worthy broomsticks here. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"The light wheel is French, the fire bolt is made by German wizards and goblins, as for the once popular comet, although it is a British company, it is now outdated, although Cage and Holden are two good Quidditch athletes, but their magic level is really indescribable, and Comet 290 is already their limit. "

Brabi's fondness for cars was clearly influenced by Quidditch, and he knew nothing more about broomsticks and was an avid enthusiast.

"I didn't know you were a Quidditch fan. "

They had stepped on the soft carpet of the palace and were on their way to meet the Queen.

"Quidditch lovers?" Brabby quickly denied, "No, no, no, I'm not a fan of the fool's sport, I just like to collect broomsticks." "

"If I have to watch Quidditch, I might as well watch a few ball games. "

Solim looked strange.

"TV? or live?"

"It's okay, although the scene is more atmospheric...... "but I don't have much time, most of the time I can only watch the replay on TV, don't talk about it." "

After saying that, he winked at Solim. []

"Actually, wizards have already accepted Muggle creations to some extent, right?" asked Solim.

"Then do you need to say?" Brabi waved his hand, "but a lot of people don't want to admit it." "

0.8" perfume for their wives, expensive dresses, fine porcelain in the house...... Which one wasn't made by the Muggles? It's just that they all choose to turn a blind eye. "

After Brabi pretended to look around, he cautiously hinted: "Do you know why your father's little actions have not been seen by the family all along?"

"Because Muggles are always showing up new things, and the things we use are still centuries old, and if we can change, many people will be quite happy to see it, but many people are cautious and don't show it......"

"Sir Brabi, Mr. Selwyn, the Queen and the Prime Minister are waiting for you. "

The waiter leading the way in front had pulled the door open, revealing the ...... in the parlor A group of people.

Solim frowned, he felt that the next thing might not be as simple as he thought.
