Two days is short, but also very long.
If a person's vision is not broad enough and he only cares about the one-third of an acre of land around him, he will often feel that this day is just like a fleeting moment, passing by in a blink of an eye.
But for those who look far enough, the changes in the past two days are enough to make people nervous and sleepless.
In recent days, the huge disasters that have occurred in the UK have caused chaos in neighboring countries. The rapid flow of information in modern Muggle society makes it difficult for the higher-ups to completely suppress the fermentation of public opinion. If this continues, even if Haierbo stops taking action, this small half of Europe may be in chaos.
However, in addition to those leaders who are troubled by chaos and chaos and feel that their days are like years, there is another kind of people in this world who are also secretly lamenting the length of time.
For example, there are "idlers" like the masked girl Safina who has arrived in France at the request of her sister.
Needless to say, it is absolutely boring and boring to wait in a strange country for someone who doesn't know exactly when he will show up.
"Miss, this is the Blois Castle. The head of the Blois family originally lived here, but it is said that one night not long ago, the entire castle collapsed without warning... "
At this moment, Safina was standing in the open space in front of Blois Castle, escorted by several men and women in black robes. She looked at the ruins in front of her, listening to one of the people in her ear reporting the situation she had learned, and occasionally nodding slightly.
And around them, a group of people in "fancy clothes", there were not many passers-by, but it could not be said that there were none, but those people seemed to have seen them there at all, and they all passed by in a hurry without realizing it.
After a while, Safina listened to her subordinates' story and then whispered to herself:
"The French Blois family used to be one of the top wizarding families in Europe. Who would have thought that they would be uprooted overnight...except for the 'despicable Herbo', There is probably no other person in the world who can do it.”
Having said this, she suddenly turned to her subordinates and asked:
"I remember... the Blois family was helping that McClain before, right?"
"Yes."
When the man in black robe saw her asking, he immediately replied:
"Although there is not much information about Maca McClain's whereabouts, it can still be roughly confirmed. The Blois family not only took in McClain and his party who left the UK, but also hid a group of refugees in France... As for There is no more precise information about where those people are."
Before he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and then added:
"In addition, the Blois family also sent a large number of personnel to the British territory to monitor the movements inside and outside the fog. They did not urgently withdraw until nothing could be done."
"Well," Safina heard, and couldn't help but nodded slightly, "It's no wonder that Herbo attacked them... However, if Blois Castle was only removed, but the surrounding Muggles were not touched, it seemed a bit strange. Isn’t it in line with the behavior of that unscrupulous person?”
Thinking of this, her brows hidden under the mask suddenly frowned slightly, then she waved her hand and said:
"It's not a good time to stay here, let's go!"
Perhaps she was worried that there was some conspiracy of Hai Erbo here, so Safina immediately left the place with her men. But since she came here just to wait for someone, she didn't go too far. She quickly found an apartment building nearby where she could see the ruins of Blois Castle and "borrowed" a room on the top floor. They lived in the house of another family.
"There is no need to set up protective magic," Safina immediately stopped when she saw her subordinates were about to cast a spell on the door wall. "If it is what I thought, these defensive methods will not only fail to stop people, but will also expose us. Where. Also, don’t go out these days. If you have to go out, try not to use magic spells... Do you understand?"
"yes."
After hearing everyone respond in unison, Safina slowly walked to the window of the living room and looked out. It can be seen that except for a few Muggles here and there, there is still no one of note in the square where she was just now.
After watching it for a while, she said casually:
"Work in two shifts, rotating day and night. If you find anyone similar to McClain, tell me immediately."
After assigning the tasks, Safina found a chair and sat down by herself, and began a long and boring wait.
To be honest, if this wasn't what her sister Ursula meant, she wouldn't want to come here at all - according to her personal opinion, not only Haierbo, but also Maka is probably a completely dangerous person.
At least she believed that the previous code of conduct in the organization was very good. No matter what the chaos was outside, it was the safest way not to get involved.
Thinking back when Greenwald was causing chaos, wasn't it because the elders in the organization had made up their minds not to interfere, so they were able to live peacefully to this day
Obviously, even if life is a bit miserable, it is still better than being dead, right
However, this generation of prophets...that is, her sister Ursula, contrary to the opinions of several previous prophets, actually began to personally get involved in this bottomless quagmire.
Safina believed in her sister, both after and before she became a prophet. However, given her character, she is still quite resistant to this kind of risk-taking behavior.
"Could it be that this chaos can no longer be overcome by just shrinking back and protecting oneself?"
After a moment of silence, Safina looked at the blue sky outside the window and muttered to herself uneasily.
…
Ursula is a prophet, and a better prophet than Trelawney's "half-baked" one. Unlike the latter's always quite abstract prophecies, she was not only able to obtain quite specific predictions, she even had strong intuition that Trelawney did not have.
However, no matter how talented she is as a prophet, she cannot accurately predict what will happen on a certain day - that is something that only a few legendary ancient prophets can do. matter.
But she certainly would not have thought that although her so-called "meeting MacLean near Chateau Blois in two days" was not wrong, her words made her sister wait for a long time in France. long time.
And what she, a "new prophet" who has just awakened her talent, doesn't know is that the reason why prophecy is revered is precisely because it is difficult to change. As a newborn prophet, she could only tremble under the fate.
The power to predict the future has been a tragedy since ancient times.
