5 Papillon(2/2)
For Hoffa now, making money is the top priority.
...
...
Hoffa's life on the ship was very good. The purser of the Papillon was a man who paid attention to life. He took care of everything very carefully. Whether it was breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper at 8 o'clock in the evening, everything was on the dining table.
Plate after plate of freshly cooked meats and other side dishes were laid out.
As a luxury wizard cruise ship, the nightlife on the Papillon is quite rich. There are not only roulette casinos opened by goblins, but also custom bars opened by elves.
However, Hoffa couldn't enter these gold-selling caves. He had no money and was too young.
In fact, even if he has money, Hoffa is not very interested in these projects.
For some reason, it was difficult for him to understand why Ron and Harry got excited when they saw Veela in the original novel.
Just like when those wizards gave a lot of gold Galleons to the Veela, he was just confused.
Whenever the sea is calm, there will be music playing on the ship, such as piano, accordion and the like. Hoffa often sits back on his chair after eating, holding his cheek with his hands and watching the performances of the group of maritime artists.
However, watching dances and listening to music are all Hoffa's entertainment activities.
After the initial novelty wears off, all that remains is sailing day after day and the endless sea.
As for Senior Sister Osivia who is traveling with me.
She is a person with no sense of humor. What she does most every day is read the newspaper, read the newspaper, read the newspaper.
Three days later, Hoffa couldn't help it. He was really curious whether the newspaper was really that good-looking.
So he took advantage of the senior sister to go to the toilet and flipped through the newspaper she had spread out on the table.
But Hoffa discovered that the newspaper she was reading was actually the Daily Prophet from three months ago.
That report recorded in detail the disappearance of the Soviet Minister of Magic.
This matter is also the one that people around me talk about the most recently.
Not to mention those passengers, Hoffa also didn't understand.
The Minister of Magic was shot?
It’s ridiculous to think about it. Didn’t the Soviet Union have Aurors?
Doesn't the Minister of Magic know how to spell the Iron Armor?
But before Hoffa could read more of the report, the senior sister from the Snake Academy came back from outside.
Osivia saw Hoffa in the room and asked coldly: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Hoffa put down the newspaper.
"Don't touch my things," said the witch of the Snake House.
Hoffa frowned and did not answer. The feeling of getting along with Slytherin was not very good, it could be said to be a bit bad.
The other party is not an easy person to talk to.
.....
.....
That night, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and Hoffa did not see any more performances by maritime artists. He only saw the captain, who was as tall as a barrel in a cloak, walking around in the hall, holding a wand in his hand and tapping continuously.
Because a heavy rain was coming, an announcement was sounded on the ship and no one was allowed to go out on the deck.
At first, Hoffa was unimpressed. He had never experienced a heavy rainstorm at sea, and the boat looked sturdy.
But soon, he realized his mistake and ignorance.
The breeze turned into a strong wind, blowing from the southeast. It gradually turned into a strong wind with a wind speed of fourteen meters per second. It was followed by torrential rain. The large raindrops turned into electrically charged feathers.
By nine o'clock at night, the wind speed reached 25 meters. This was already the speed of a storm, and the falling rainstorm was directly blown sideways and turned into a sideways blow.
The sea breeze became stronger and stronger, and the huge waves that were blown turned into splashes of water. There were pieces of water splashing on the glass.
At twelve o'clock at night, Hoffa could see the fluorescent anemometer in the room showing that the wind speed outside was fifty-one meters per second, and the magic dial showed a horrified look.
Such strong winds can overturn houses and break iron fences.
On the sea, the Papillon sometimes entered the abyss and sometimes reached the peak.
Hoffa sat in the single cabin with a pale face, his body swaying up and down.
He stared at the heavy rain hitting the sea through the glass, and could see nothing except super heavy rain.
All the items in the room were cast with anti-shake and anti-fall spells, preventing them from falling. However, they were all trembling and banging in place.
Hoffa listened to the thumping sound of the ship hitting the waves, and watched the lamp hanging at the stern dancing wildly in the wind. The lamp was really a glimmer of light tortured in the dusk rain.
In the huge storm, the waves outside were like rolling mountains, and the water peaks more than 20 meters high were like terrifying giant hands, playing with the more than 100-meter-long Butterfly cruise ship wantonly.
Terrible bumps.
Half an hour later.
The stern light was finally overwhelmed and went out in the waves with a snap. Hoffa's sight became pitch black.
After Hoffa can transform into a thunderbird, his mental force field will have some bonuses in heavy rain. But in this environment, no matter how much the bonus is, it will be small.
The waves blown by the strong wind were like smoking mountains running wildly and roaring. Sitting on the bed, looking at the huge peaks outside the glass window, Hoffa was frightened.
Is this the magic of nature?
How terrifying!
Another bolt of lightning flashed.
The sky suddenly turned red. There was another terrible jolt. The steel bow of the Papillon rose upright into the sky, and its angle was like a lightning rod, with strings of sparks exploding from it.
At this moment, Hoffa felt something in this sea area. Above the black and foggy sea water.
He couldn't help frowning and lying on the water-smeared window, feeling it carefully.
That's right, there are black shadows swimming in the mountainous sea water.
This made him full of doubts as to what could come near the sea surface during such a heavy rain.
Soon, he saw it.
In the lightning, he saw a green object ten meters long leaping high from the waves, spiraling and falling to the deck.
Hoffa's eyes widened.
