The Bentley 8 Liter finally stopped in front of a tall building. A bearded man in a neatly ironed white shirt stood on the steps, looking impatiently at the plain quartz watch on his hand. A black suit jacket was draped over his arm. Beside him stood a petite middle-aged lady with long brown hair tied up in a bun. She was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. Apart from the same quartz watch as her husband, there was only a pair of pearl earrings on her ears as decoration. She was wearing a navy blue business suit, and every button of her suit jacket was meticulously buttoned. She was wearing a pair of thick white heels.
Mr. and Mrs. Krivat stood upright. When Allen closed the door and walked towards them, they raised their chins slightly. Mrs. Krivat's eyelids were half-closed. Her eyes, which were only a slit, slowly looked at Allen from top to bottom. Seeing Allen's white hair and abnormally pale skin, Mrs. Krivat's lips tightened. He's so young. Don't tell me he has albinism.
Mr. and Mrs. Krivat looked at each other and sighed. They couldn't tell their daughter Penello's profession to friends and relatives. They would be secretly laughed at. Now she had a boyfriend who was not only much younger than her, but also a freak. If they appeared at home at the same time and were seen by others, they could only imagine what they would say.
But when Mr. Krivat glanced at the Bentley 8 Liter that Allen was driving, he nodded slightly.
"Father, mother, this is Allen? Harris. " Penello, who got out of the passenger seat, straightened her clothes and introduced Allen, who was already standing on the steps, to her parents. Then she introduced her parents to Allen somewhat rigidly. "Allen, this is my father, Felipe Krivat. Krivat and my mother, Letizia. Roca Solano? Krivat. "
"Hello, Mr. Harris." Mr. Krivat took the initiative to extend his hand.
"Hello, Mr. Krivat." Allen leaned forward slightly and held the other person's hand. Both of their hands shook a few times.
Lady Krivat had no intention of shaking Allen's hand and only nodded reluctantly as a greeting. The corners of her eyes were raised, and the corners of her lips were lowered. Her lips were pursed tightly. From her face, Allen felt that this madam might be even stricter than Professor Mag. She might not be easy to get along with.
"Time is of the essence. Let's go." Mr. Krivat looked at his watch again. Penello frowned. Allen opened the car door and made an inviting gesture.
When Mr. Krivat stepped into the car, he couldn't help but stop. Mrs. Krivat pushed him from behind. "Hurry up, Felipe."
However, not only did Mr. Krivat not enter the car, but he also took a few steps back in surprise. He scrutinized the old car in front of him from top to bottom, then stepped into the car again in a daze without saying a word.
When Mrs. Krivat got into the car with the help of her daughter, she was stunned by the scene in front of her. The old car that didn't look very spacious on the outside seemed to have become a caravan. The interior of the car was very spacious and comfortable. It was even enough for several people to lie down.
The old car once again moved forward steadily on the road. On an empty path, the car suddenly bounced as if it had hit something. The sudden cold air made everyone in the car cry out in alarm.
"What is that? Did we hit something? "Mr. Krivat looked out the window nervously, but didn't see anything on the road.
"Uh … sorry …" Allen looked back in the rearview mirror on the right. "Don't worry, Mr. Krivat. It's fine. It stood up. It's a dementor."
"You hit something? What's a dementor? I didn't … "Mr. Krivat stopped asking when he saw his daughter poke her head out of the window and point with her wand. Then, a silver light flashed and the cold air in the car disappeared.
"I'll inform Director Josephine." Penello put away his wand and pressed his collar badge. Then, he said to Allen, "These ugly things are quite smart. Although they betrayed the Ministry of Magic, they still know to only feed on emotions and not use the Dementor's Kiss to prevent the Ministry of Magic from focusing on them."
Allen nodded. "These crazy things still have some concerns before we figure out the situation with the Unknowns."
A female voice interrupted the wizards' conversation. Letizia, who felt fooled, looked at the driver's seat and said, "Allen? Mr. Harris, please forgive me … but your age … Do you have a driver's license? If not, once the police stop you, I'm afraid you'll be delayed for a long time. "
"Mother, please don't worry. Allen can drive. Just now, it was just a small monster. You can't see them without magic power. " Before Allen could answer, Penello, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suppressed her anger and replied stiffly. She heard the indifference and alienation in her mother's polite tone.
Allen's eyes were still on the road ahead. He held the steering wheel with one hand and calmly pressed the Muggle Dispel Spell button.
"With the Muggle Dispel Spell on the car, the police won't notice us and won't let us stop for inspection." Penello's explanation made her parents stunned for a moment. The husband and wife looked at each other and frowned at the same time.
"So you mean Allen? Mr. Harris hasn't gotten his driver's license … In this case, I suggest we change cars or let Felipe drive. I didn't do anything to Allen? Mr. Harris, I don't mean to be disrespectful, but I think even wizards should abide by the traffic rules … "Mrs. Krivat leaned forward and held the back of the seat in front of her. Her tone was serious and restrained.
Mr. Krivat stopped his wife who was talking faster and faster. "Mr. Harris, I think Letizia has a point. Why don't we stop on the side of the road and let me drive? I have a driver's license. I think it's our duty as citizens to abide by the laws and regulations. Also, please forgive me, but where are we going now? It's a place for us humans … "Felipe was a little worried that the boy and daughter in front of him would bring them to the place where the freaks gathered to taste the strange" delicacies ".
"Muggle doesn't care about wizards! Adepts are not 'citizens'! " Penello, who felt that she had restrained herself for a long time, couldn't help but blurt out. Allen held the steering wheel with one hand and pressed Penello with the other, patting her gently to comfort her. Penello frowned and took a deep breath to calm herself down. She obediently leaned back in her chair and relaxed her stiff body.
Allen directly turned on the car's flight mode and the car lifted off the ground. Mr. Krivat and his wife immediately grabbed the car's handrail and watched in horror as the car rose higher and higher. They saw that there were people looking out of the window in the towering office building next to them, but they seemed to turn a blind eye to the car in the sky. No one was surprised. The couple felt a slight sense of weightlessness, but it was more stable than usual. It was very quiet in the car, and they could even hear each other's breathing, which was more rapid than usual.
"I'm sorry, Mr. and Mrs. Krivat, but I don't think we're driving on the road. I have permission from the wizarding world, so this shouldn't be considered a violation of the law, no matter if it's a Muggle or a wizard. As for our destination, don't worry, it belongs to Muggle. You all know the place, but please allow me to keep it a secret for now." Allen smiled and pointed to a Ministry of Magic icon on the car's windshield, deliberately ignoring the fact that strictly speaking, it was also a violation of flight control regulations.
Mr. and Mrs. Krivat looked at each other. These methods that were beyond Muggle's understanding left them speechless for a moment. The atmosphere in the car fell into silence again.
Allen saw the couple's suppressed anger through the car's rearview mirror, so he took the initiative to find a topic to ease the atmosphere. "Mr. Krivat, I heard from Penello that you're a lawyer. I heard that lawyers have a very high status in Muggle society and are quite respected. This is similar to the wizarding world. Speaking of professions, Penello's Aura works in the wizarding world … Erm … Probably an Aura is equivalent to a Muggle's secret agent. The requirements for wizards are quite high, even strict. Usually, only very good wizards can become Aura."
Hearing Allen's compliment, Mr. and Mrs. Krivat remained silent. They had put in a lot of effort to become famous lawyers, and this was what they were most proud of. However, their obedient and sensible daughter suddenly rebelled at the age of ten and insisted on going to some wizarding school to become a witch. After graduation, she even became a secret agent in some wizarding world. Every time their neighbors, relatives, and friends asked about Penello's graduation school and her profession, they could only answer perfunctorily. This made them feel very embarrassed, and their conflict with their daughter had not been resolved. What made them even more annoyed was that they could not do anything to Penello.
Letizia? Mrs. Krivat was depressed. Penello had mentioned Allen's age before, so he should not have graduated from some Hogwarts yet. She crossed her arms on her knees, raised her eyebrows, and asked knowingly, "Speaking of professions, Allen? Mr. Harris, with all due respect, what is your profession? "
