After leaving Grimmauld Square, Jon did not return to Hogwarts. Instead, he returned to Biro Manor.
However, before he could sit on the sofa for a while, Joanne's letter arrived.
The content was the same as before. She just wanted Jon to take a look.
Jon waved his hand and the letter spontaneously combusted in the air, turning into ashes.
When the ashes fell from the air, he was no longer there.
Only the Little Elf cleaned up the place.
It was as neat as before.
…
"Long time no see. How have you been?"
When Jon appeared out of thin air, Joanne was lying on the sofa, flipping through a vintage magazine. He did not know where she got it from.
"We haven't seen each other in so long and you're asking me this question as soon as you come back. Do you not have confidence in me? Or do you not have confidence in Dumbledore? "
"Are you telling the truth?"
Jon sat down on the other side of the sofa, picked up an apple, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Actually, no."
"To be honest, I've always been worried that you'll find writing boring and give up on it. So, I'm really happy that you've persevered until now."
"That's why doing this isn't as boring as you think. It's just that it's a little difficult to show some of the plots in a reasonable way. Reality is indeed not a story, but it's much more magical than a story. It's quite difficult to change these.
Joanne was not complaining. Instead, she was stating the facts. Her tone was not impatient. She was just complaining to Jon as usual.
After all, Jon was invited by her to help her modify the article.
To be precise, it was not a modification.
Jon did have a better foresight when it came to Harry Potter's story. He was able to give some guiding suggestions, especially when Joanne had a writer's block.
So, this time, Joanne had a basket full of questions to ask him.
"I feel like I've made a mistake this time. I should've pretended that I didn't know anything."
Jon smiled and looked in the direction Joanne was pointing at. He reached out and took the stack of papers.
"Speaking of which, why aren't Lille and Rank at home at this time?"
"The two of them went to buy groceries. It's almost autumn, and they can't order food from the restaurant every day. After living here for so long, the two of them have developed some culinary skills. Do you want to try? When they come back, you can have a meal before leaving. "
"Today?"
"What else?"
"I plan to stay here for the next two days because I need to assess the current situation and make changes to the plan. Dumbledore has given me a very difficult task, so I need to do it with all my heart."
"If you live here, it's fine. There will be plenty of opportunities. You don't have to rush. But if you have a job, you should read these things now.
If you don't have time to do this because of work, then I'll cry but have no tears. "
"Don't worry, I read things very quickly."
Jon said as he flipped open the papers on his lap. Joanne's writing logic was as usual. But as she said, she did encounter some problems with the novel.
For a novel with this theme, it was a traditional novel, so it required a lot of editing and corrections. Joanne certainly had the ability to do this, but some things involved real events, so there was very little room for her to change.
So these small room for change needed Jon to deal with.
"This … why is it stuck? Is it because there's no material? "
Looking at the blank space in the text, Jon asked doubtfully.
Joanne rarely left blank space in her writing. Her thinking was very smooth. Once she obtained the material, she could sort out the general framework. And this blank space, if it wasn't because of the lack of material, it meant that she couldn't write in this place.
But this was only the third novel, so there was nothing difficult to write.
"Yes, this place has an additional use of a time converter, but I don't remember the Ministry of Magic having a time converter that can be used like this."
The origin of this part was very noble. It was handwritten by Dumbledore himself for her. Because of this, she didn't rashly write this part of the plot, because the time converter that Dumbledore mentioned ran through the entire story.
And in Joanne's memory, the use of the time converter was a little strange.
She was a member of an official organization, so it wasn't that she hadn't used the time converter of the Ministry of Magic before. This kind of time converter, rather than using a time converter, was more like using a powerful alchemy spell to create a shadow clone, so that the user could appear in different places at the same time. However, the time converter described by Dumbledore was clearly the same as the one described in her writing. It was a real thing that could travel through time.
"This is obviously illogical. It's fine if I add artistic embellishments to the text, but this part of the plot violates the law of time. Even if magic has the ability to change things, it can't not abide by the law of time."
Joanne's worries weren't unfounded. In the situation where she couldn't directly contact Dumbledore, waiting for Jon to come back was the best way to do it.
"I know the answer to that. This Time Converter really does exist."
Jon recalled bits and pieces about this time converter.
"Before Nico Lemour died, he had been researching an alchemy item like this, hoping to achieve a true time transition.
And after paying the price of his life, he did indeed obtain such a product.
However, this time converter's time jump has a time limit. In order to comply with the law of time not conflicting, he added a lot of risk mechanisms. Hmm, I'll compile the corresponding rules later. You can add it in. But speaking of the time converter, I'm reminded of something else. Does the Ministry of Magic have a batch of inferior time converters? "
"Yes. To be precise, almost all of the remaining time converters in the Western magical world are now in the British planning department. This is also an important resource that the Ministry of Magic uses to trade with other countries. Its importance is comparable to national security."
If it wasn't such an important thing, Joanne wouldn't have even noticed that the Ministry of Magic had such an alchemy item.
The fundamental reason for the existence of MI0 was to prevent the Wizard society from causing any irreversible influence on the Muggle society. Naturally, the operation of some precious resources was also included.
