Delphi did not know that not long ago there was an unprecedented torrential rain in London; And Delphi didn't know that the rain came down fast, but it stopped faster than ever.
The once continuous rain curtain has now turned into crystal clear ice, freezing the whole city of London like a specimen.
From a distance, the buildings in the city become crooked and distorted with the irregular refraction of light in the ice, as if they no longer belong to the world, but are sealed into an isolated space.
This was what Delphi had glimpsed before he left, what the city of London looked like now.
In fact, she returned to the attic and lay in bed in silence for a long time. She still didn't understand what was going on in London until dark.
However, this is understandable after all, because it is hard for anyone to think that someone will be crazy enough to freeze the whole city into a big ice lump.
"Should I go in? Or... How should I go in? And what will happen if I really rush in?"
There was no light in the attic bedroom. Delphi just lay in the dark and muttered to himself.
However, it is obvious that no one here can answer her doubts.
After a long time, the night was getting deeper and deeper, and then I heard a hiss in the quiet room. At the next moment, a flame ignited out of thin air, leaped slightly, and sprinkled the light on every corner of the room.
The thick curtains have long been pulled up. At present, only Delphi who lit it can enjoy the warmth and light.
When she saw Delphi holding a magic wand gently shaking the tip of the wand, she let the small but bright flame float to the side, and then she supported the bed and sat up again.
"Go, you will go after all."
While mumbling like this, she took out some of the things she carried with her, put them on the bed one by one and checked them carefully. From all kinds of potions, to special materials, to some magic and alchemy props... There are even several volumes of Rune matrix drawn by herself.
These are the reasons why she dared to set foot in this death with Muggle, and next, she will enter London with her.
At that time, whether she lives or dies, and even whether she can see her father, this is all she has.
After checking and putting it away again, Delphi finally put out the fire and lay back in bed, emptying his body and mind and gradually falling asleep.
Dream is not a good dream, but looking at her like that, it doesn't seem so bad.
……
Luna joined Charlie and them before nightfall. When she found them all the way west from the sea, she found that they had planned to spend the night on a ship docked at a port.
For the four of them, it's easy to go around Devonshire from the English channel, but it's still not easy to go from the shore to the Burrow - even if you choose this route, you've reduced most of the danger for them, but you can't take the rest of the road lightly.
"Early tomorrow morning, we'll try to get to the burrow, so have a good rest tonight! There are two bunk beds for the crew. Let Luna and miss Brandt sleep!"
In the small cabin, the four of them were eating simple dry food, and now it was Charlie who was talking. But soon Luna gave her bed to old aginbad.
A moment later, when aginbad stopped giving way, Luna turned her head:
"Actually... I'm still a little worried about Delphi."
"But she wanted to go to London, didn't she?" Charlie said.
But Luna shook her head.
"I'm just worried that it has nothing to do with whether she's going herself - I'll tell Hermione about it when she gets to the burrow tomorrow! I want to know her opinion."
"I guess I can only worry!" Charlie said, "but I can't do anything... Didn't you just say that Delphi left from the burrow? Hermione can let her leave alone, which can explain the problem. After all, the Burrow must be very busy now, and Hermione probably doesn't have enough energy to take care of her."
"Maybe..."
Luna said, took another bite of the dry cake in her hand and crunched it.
After a while, everyone hurried to fill their stomachs and went to bed according to what Charlie just said.
And this night, perhaps because I only spent it on a boat by the sea, I had a fairly safe time.
Of course, among those who think so, IDA must not be included.
Although she didn't know the time limit at that moment, as time went by, they could only be regarded as walking around the sea. It was still a question mark whether they could see... And even whether they could really see Hermione in time.
At the thought that she might be moving towards death every minute, she couldn't calm down any more.
To be honest, the crew's bed was left for her. It was really a waste. Until the next morning, just before dawn, IDA, who had been staring at her eyes all night, immediately stood up against her dry eyes. Look at her red eyes. It's obvious that she didn't sleep all night.
When IDA stood on the deck facing the early morning sea breeze for more than ten minutes, everyone woke up from their not deep sleep one after another. They only chewed two mouthfuls of dry food with clean water, and Charlie began to call norbeta with the Dragon whistle.
The fire dragon is not suitable for going deep into the current British land, so it's time to let it go back to the camp on the other side. Next, Charlie will ride a broom to the Burrow with Luna and others.
However, at the moment when they were ready to officially set off, Luna suddenly stood up and stopped everyone.
"Wait, it seems... There are many living bodies coming from the east along the coast."
"A lot? How much?" asked old aginbad immediately.
"It's hard to estimate," Luna shook her head and raised her hand while feeling carefully. "But many... Very many! From the shore to the inland."
As soon as IDA heard this, she couldn't help worrying.
"Well..." she said hurriedly, "can't we go from here again?"
However, after feeling more for a while, Luna took the lead in stepping on her broomstick and turned to IDA Brandt:
"No, you can... But be fast! Although we don't know why they are piling up here, as long as we are fast enough, we should be able to get one step ahead of them."
Before the words fell, Luna controlled the broom and took the lead in flying.
