The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Vol 3 Chapter 244: Harry's SOS (Happy 51!)

Taxi driver: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Boy, your question is very strange!

The Prime Minister has been changing for several months, how did you know?

But oddly enough, the driver still came up with a reasonable explanation: Did the child go to a relatively closed school before? You see, as soon as the summer vacation comes, I come out and go shopping with my girlfriend...

Very reasonable explanation.

Anyway, idle is idle, the driver is very serious to Tom "Science" the changes in British politics in recent months.

It seems that in all countries, taxi drivers are the most powerful people. This is determined by the particularity of this profession. The taxi driver must have a car. A car, whether these two cars belong to you or not, means a promotion of the driver's own class. In an era when private cars were not yet popular, being able to drive a taxi was a very remarkable thing. Only drivers with a driver's license can be hired by taxi companies, which means that the driver is literate and understands certain mechanical knowledge and traffic laws. In the middle of the 20th century, such a person definitely deserved the word "talent".

In the era of expensive fares, the passengers who take taxis are not ordinary people. When two people with a certain status and status get together, it is easy to find a common topic, so the key policy begins.

Even if private cars become popular and the status of taxi drivers declines in the future, this habit has not disappeared, but has remained. Because driving is boring, what else can you do without chatting while driving?

Don't underestimate the British taxi drivers. There are large and small unions in the United Kingdom. These unions unite the laborers closely. An ordinary London taxi driver is likely to meet the minister's driver at a certain event. The drivers have their own network, so a well-informed news network was born.

Sometimes the driver is better informed than the minister!

Tom's taxi driver is a well-informed man.

"Although Mr. Huck was chosen... but anyone with a discerning eye would know that he could only become the Prime Minister, which I predicted after Christmas!" The driver held the steering wheel with one hand and waved it vigorously with the other. As if the prime minister was a relative of his own.

"What has Mr. Harker accomplished in the past few months?" Hermione was very excited that the new Prime Minister was someone she knew, and she was eager to know if Harker had made a big showing in the Prime Minister's office and realized herself. ideal.

The driver was silent.

He smacked his mouth, and suddenly found that the Prime Minister has a strong presence on weekdays, but if he really wants to count his achievements, it seems that he can't remember it for a while. He seems to be speaking and visiting every day, but he just doesn't have much to offer.

Maybe his tenure was too short? But his predecessor doesn't seem to have any conspicuous achievements. Although the former prime minister brought the opposition party into the ruling party, his achievements were limited to the party, and he did not leave anything for the country.

The last highlight of the British Prime Minister's moment may be traced back to the Falkland Islands naval battle in 1982.

"Well... he defended the reputation of British sausages and saved prison expenses... He also said that he would cut the government budget, make a trident, and transparent government, but these are not yet." The driver searched his stomach and finally found Ha A little achievement for grams.

Tom:  …

Sure enough, almost nothing was done soon...

"It's very good, the country can't stand the toss now." Tom felt that the problems of the United Kingdom could not be solved by a wise prime minister.

"Yeah," the driver agreed with Tom. "When a country is going downhill, the guy in the driver's seat is always trying to put a foot on the gas -- but they always forget to turn around and put the foot on the gas."

There was an air of joy in the car.

Tom was very happy to key up with Mr. Driver. The two went from a confrontation between the two poles to a superpower and a superpower, and then went into the reasons for the outbreak of World War I and World War II, and whether the decline of the British Empire was accidental or inevitable. When the taxi arrived at the destination, they were already talking about the rise of Britain. possibility.

"The destination is here, 10.5 pounds." The driver braked and stopped steadily on the side of the road.

As Hermione rummaged through her purse, a snow-white owl caught the driver's attention. He patted the seat and motioned Tom to look out.

"Look, there's an owl there!"

Following the driver's index finger, Tom saw a snow-white owl squatting on top of Hermione's letterbox. This owl was everyone's old eagle, and it was Harry's Hedwig.

"Sure enough, the environmental protection has been getting better and better in recent years, and even owls can be seen in the suburbs of London." Hedwig's appearance did not arouse the driver's suspicion. He attributed all this to the improvement of the environment.

"Goodbye!" After receiving the fare, the taxi spewed exhaust and drove away quickly. Tom looked at the distant taillights and sighed, "What a chatty driver!"

"You're not bad!" Hermione walked quickly to Hedwig, trying to untangle the letter from her lap. But Hedwig refused. Hermione took a closer look, and it turned out that the recipient column was filled with Tom's name~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Hedwig was a principled owl who would only hand the letter to the recipient. So Hermione didn't get the letter until Tom came over.

She opened the envelope, skimmed two lines quickly, and said to Tom, "Harry's letter is, um... interesting."

Tom hurriedly took the letter from Hermione and read it.

Hermione was right, this letter was indeed Harry's letter for help.

[Dear Tom:

Hi! Say hello to Hermione for me (I guess you should be with her)]

Tom:  …

The guy guessed right.

【How did you spend your summer vacation? I heard from Ron that you guys are going to the Quidditch World Cup final too? That's great, we can see each other again in August.

My situation here hasn't gotten any better -- or rather gotten worse. Because Dali is going to start a diet to lose weight. Uncle Vernon and the others were always good at making excuses, but this time they couldn't avoid it: no more trousers for Dalí in the school clothing library, ha!

I wanted to have some fun, but I didn't realize that the ultimate diet plan was for everyone in the family - Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia, and me.

Can you imagine the pain of eating only diet recipes every day? I now eat fruits and vegetables every day, and I have hallucinations when I eat them, and I feel like I am a rabbit. For Merlin's sake, save me! Could you send me something to eat (no fruits and vegetables), I'd be very grateful.

Harry
