Chapter 1641 Frogampfog (Twenty-Nine)
No. 1g&fog (twenty-nine)
The yellow rubber duck with a Roman helmet that Pomona bought at the Louvre was placed beside her bed, and there was also a music box that was making a very soft sound.
"You're going to buy summer clothes." Pomona said, looking at the heavy clothes on his body.
"I can't wear short sleeves." Severus gestured to his arm with the Dark Mark. "That would cause trouble."
"Are you giving me a hard time?"
He smirked.
“Don’t buy Hawaiian shirts, it’s a waste if you do.”
"You know what black looks like?" Pomona said, staring into his eyes. "You look like a cheap thug."
"At least others know that you have bodyguards and don't dare to offend you." Severus looked down at her shoes, "Why don't you wear high heels?"
"I hate high heels." Pomona said coldly, "Those shoes were originally designed for men who were not confident about their height, just like the iron tower!"
Pomona looked at the dark iron tower outside the window.
"I really don't understand, why was it designed?"
"It's actually not bad once you get used to it." A female store clerk said in English. "It was originally designed to be dismantled at any time, so it uses a steel frame structure like a shelf."
"You can understand it as a monument to victory," Severus said. "Besides, the French have put up with it, so why should you complain?"
"I hate Paris." Pomona said dissatisfiedly when she left the boutique and returned to the arcade.
"Want to go to the Louvre?" Severus asked.
“I’d rather see Père Lachaise Cemetery.”
"Snape," Gongsei said at the door.
Severus snapped out of his memories and looked back at him.
"I've packed it up," Gong Saiyi said.
"There is a supreme gift, which is sometimes not revealed. It is more powerful because it is hidden. This gift is respect." Severus said softly, "I believe Hugo will forgive us."
"What?" Gong Saiyi asked in confusion.
"We once sneaked over to Victor Hugo's house for dinner," Severus said. "She was in a bad mood, and we had a dance at Hugo's house, and the music in the background is what you hear now, Hugo’s home is not far from the Place de la Bastille. During the cholera epidemic in London in 1856, there was a The doctor entered the slums to investigate the truth behind the outbreak of the plague. There was a cesspool next to the drinking water well. The bottom of the pool was broken, and sewage contaminated by cholera bacteria flowed into the drinking water. I remember the background of Hugo's Les Misérables. It was during the cholera outbreak in Paris in 1832.”
"Do you believe me?" Gong Saiyi said.
"We will go to Père Lachaise Cemetery later. We have other friends in Venice. If there are clues there, we can ask them to help us investigate." Severus said.
"Okay." Gongseyi said, "So what we want to investigate now is the connection below the surface?"
"Victor Hugo, Notre Dame de Paris, I remember a scene in it, where Asmeralda once danced in the square in front of Notre Dame, and the priest of the church fell in love with her after watching her dance."
Gong Saiyi smiled bitterly, "Will it be that simple?"
"As long as you find the right direction, all problems will be solved." Severus said calmly, "I have been thinking about the reason why he gave me the dagger of Thutmose I. If he didn't give it to me, I wouldn't be able to Call upon the goddess to prepare the water of eternal life for me.”
"Yes." Gong Saiyi suddenly realized, "Why would he do that?"
"This is an invitation, or a key. Thutmose succeeded his brother's throne after the death of Camos. One of us must disappear." Severus said, "He can tell me that he robbed Where is the Moscow treasure hidden, and also helped me find Lily , I can start over, just like I just did, but if I don't accept it, I have to go through difficulties and even risk my life. With those crocodile sculptures, he can hinder my magic. I have to fight like a Muggle. , have you seen the movie "Legend of Gods and Ghosts"?
"No." Gong Saiyi said.
"The high priest Imogen fell in love with the Pharaoh's beloved concubine, and they joined forces to kill the Pharaoh. Later, the Pharaoh's guards broke in, and she chose to commit suicide, allowing Imogen to escape and find a chance to resurrect her. In order to resurrect her, Imogen Dun experienced a lot, but when he was At the altar of the Scorpion King, he lost all his magic power and could only fight hand-to-hand with an American soldier with well-developed limbs. Bonaparte is a short man, but he has really been on the battlefield. I am much taller than him. How much do you think I am? The odds?" Severus asked.
"I don't know." Gong Saiyi shook his head. "You know, there is a rumor in the French wizarding community that Napoleon was a Squib, not a Muggle, so he was not afraid of the Black Death."
"Louis-Philippe was afraid of him and wanted to suppress him with a July pole," Severus said. "The question is why Napoleon buried his mummy near the National Library of France."
"There used to be a museum there," Gongsei said.
"When Napoleon was very young and very poor, going to the library and reading was the only entertainment he could consume." Severus said. "You can also warm yourself by the fire inside."
"You don't want to burn that place down," Gong Saiyi said cautiously.
"We need to change our thinking." Severus said. "We can ignore the Bastille Square for the time being and focus on the relationship between Père Lachaise Cemetery and the National Library. Do you have a map of Paris?"
Concei immediately put down the box and found the map of Paris.
Severus looked at it for a while and pointed to a place, "Here."
"Dumas's former residence?" Consei looked at the place Severus pointed to and said, "Why?"
"If you connect the Lestrange family tombs in Père Lachaise Cemetery and the library with a straight line, Dumas's former residence is on this line." Severus said, "Do you remember what Crimian said about concentric circles?"
"Oh my God, this villa is right next to Père Lachaise Cemetery." Consei exclaimed.
"The Count of Monte Cristo." Severus smiled, "Interesting title."
"When Dumas became famous, Napoleon had already died. What is the relationship between them?" Consei asked.
Severus drew a circle with Père Lachaise Cemetery as the center and the distance to the National Library as the radius. A magical scene happened. Notre Dame de Paris, Les Halles de Paris, and the National Library were actually on the same circumference.
"Austerlitz Station is not on the circumference." Conseil said.
"But the Paris Botanical Garden is there. It's strange that Napoleon cares a lot about botanical gardens and museums." Severus pointed to the Austerlitz train station and said, "This station is right next to the botanical garden."
"I knew it!" Conseil said excitedly, "Working with you is much more interesting than working in an auction house."
Severus drew another straight line, which connected Hugo's former residence and Père Lachaise Cemetery.
"Here." Severus pointed to a location on the map.
"Tobacco Museum." Conseil said.
Severus drew another circle, still with Père Lachaise Cemetery as the center and the Tobacco Museum as the radius. This time, the Tobacco Museum and Dumas' former residence were on the same circle.
"We found two, and there are three more." Severus said with some joy.
"What?" Conseil asked blankly.
"Have you read Copernicus's System of the Visible World? There are only five planets on that map, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, and the other planets are invisible."
"Including Mercury?" Conseil asked.
"It's too close to the sun." Severus said, "Nic Flamel created the orbit of Mercury and prevented the disaster."
"How did you...quickly." Conseil couldn't help but say.
"It's her credit." Severus looked back at Pomona, "She's not my muse, but my Mercury."
I remembered seeing the math teacher draw a circle with his bare hands when I was in school.
Don't ask how to draw a circle without a compass, just imagine the picture.
