"Luna Lovegood was born in Ravenclaw House, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She has a weird personality and an out-of-the-box thinking. She is good at ancient magical literature. She was once a student one year below Maka McClane. In Mike After Ryan became the professor of ancient magic literature at Hogwarts, he followed him to learn magic literature courses. After several trials (see attachment), he improved even more. Now he is studying with outstanding young talents such as Hermione Granger and Harry Potter. The wizard has gone deep into the disaster area several times. Due to the difficulty of investigation, further personal information is temporarily unknown, and the current situation needs to be completed."
This is one of the pieces of information that the International Intelligence Office of the Magic Congress of the United States sent to the institute through Ilvermorny. Although the content is not very detailed, the information about the identity of the other party and the general experience during the disaster are. It’s all there.
Coupled with several magical photos of the other party, John could accurately identify who this girl who suddenly appeared in front of him was with just one glance.
However, he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing that he suddenly met the other person in this place.
"Uh... 'make friends'?" John subconsciously kept taking a step back, standing in the door and hesitantly repeating the other person's words.
"yes!"
In front of the door, Luna stood on the steps and looked at him curiously. After a pause, she continued:
"Everyone has difficulties and can help each other. This is making friends... You look dull, so you don't have many friends, right? In fact, I am the same... So seize the opportunity! Everyone here is good, there is nothing Bad thoughts are all good friends worth making..."
As she was speaking, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind and pulled her aside, interrupting her "friendship theory" that completely confused John.
"Sorry, Luna occasionally likes to talk to herself like this, so don't pay attention to her."
Just as he said this, the owner of the hand that pulled Luna away had replaced Luna who had spoken abruptly and stood in front of John. Because he had also seen this face in the intelligence list, John quickly recognized the other person's identity - this was one of the people highlighted in the information, named "Hermione. Granger" the young witch.
And when John looked up and looked behind him... Sure enough, although it was not complete compared to the list, most of those young people were indeed here, and some of his previous guesses were correct.
"Excuse me, is this Miss Granger from Hogwarts?" John thought for a moment, then his face became serious and he took a step forward, stretched out his hand and said, "I am John Stewart, an American Ilvermonite. The advance team is coming."
"Ilvermorny?" Hermione stared at him twice, "Hello, it's nice to see humans here besides us."
As she responded, she reached out her hand to shake the other person's hand lightly, but then withdrew her hand.
"Since Mr. Stewart appears here safe and sound, he must have had no conflict with the living zombies. We just went out and experienced a difficult battle. Some people need treatment and some need rest. It is not convenient to talk to Mr. in detail at the moment... Please Give us some time and have a good discussion later!"
Having said that, Hermione nodded politely towards John, then waved the others behind her to bypass him and went straight into the foyer.
John watched this group of people passing by him one after another, and found that except for Miss Luna Lovegood at the beginning, most of the others, like Miss Granger, seemed to have no interest in him. He didn't dare to say anything more for the moment, he just watched them disappear one by one through the hall door where he came out.
"Harry Potter, Ginny Weasley, Neville Longbottom, Hannah Abbott... Safina Groofen."
He murmured in his mind that these were naturally the people he had seen in the information, but obviously not all of them. Among this group of people, there were wizards whom he did not know and whose origins were still unknown.
But no matter who it is, the person who can appear here is obviously not someone he can easily ignore. Now that he is trapped here, at least these young wizards who are said to have taken the lead in order to suppress this disaster are obviously more worthy of his trust than the owners here, those living corpses.
However, is this really the case
John looked at the empty foyer again, hesitated for a moment, and then shook his head silently - after seeing various situations here recently, he had actually begun to doubt what the purpose of his coming here was.
When they were assigned the mission, the agency stated with certainty that they had obtained some information about this disaster place. Although it was still dangerous to send their team here, it was still possible to collect the specific information here. He managed to send it out after receiving the information.
But looking at it now, the actual situation here is not only completely different from the information given here, but it is also difficult for him to go back - if he hadn't been inexplicably lucky this time, he might have been like those teammates. Was he already dead from the start
So, what on earth did he come here for
"...Mr. Stewart? Mr. Stewart?"
Standing at the gate and facing the foyer in a daze, John had a lot of thoughts for a while, and he was even more depressed. He even seemed to have begun to doubt his life. After the voice in his ear repeated several times, he suddenly woke up.
"What?"
He turned around suddenly, and when he saw the pale face of the living corpse girl Bai Ye, he finally came back to his senses.
"I mean, Mr. Stewart, what are you doing standing here?" Bai Ye said, pointing to the foyer, "The master will be back soon. He ordered a banquet to be prepared in the restaurant, and asked Mr. Stewart to attend - Sir, go and tidy up your clothes first, the master doesn’t like disheveled people.”
"Uh... ah... oh!"
John was startled, and subconsciously looked down at his clothes.
Indeed, in recent days, he has been wandering around and busy with his own affairs, and he has not seen many people all day long, so he has not cared about his image at all.
However, for a living corpse who was still holding a book and learning human writing to point this out, it was still something he didn't expect. This was somewhat subtle.
After saying these words, Bai Ye didn't say anything more to him, and took the new companion behind him out of John's sight, leaving him alone at the door in a daze.
"… banquet?"
I don't know how long it took before John slapped his mouth and said dryly to himself.
