Chapter 593 A Big Guy Comes

"Andrew, over there, someone is looking for you."

Hal nudged Andrew next to him to distract him from his Herbology textbook.

"what?"

Andrew looked up and put a bookmark in the book. The person who came was the Gryffindor prefect, who was currently working in the office. What was she doing here?
"Lina?"

"The professor is looking for you, Andrew."

The sixth grade prefect said so, with confusion written all over her face, "There are a few people, but I don't know what they do."

"Okay, I get it, Lina."

Andrew nodded and quickly ran to the table.

"I guess I'll be back very late, so don't wait for me."

He simply tapped his wand, quickly gathered the books into his bag, and followed Lina towards Professor McGonagall's office with uncontrollable joy.

"What on earth is it, Andrew?"

Lina asked curiously.

"Some of the things I requested have arrived."

Andrew nodded decisively, "But I can't explain it more clearly at the moment."

"It's so mysterious. I'm the one doing all the office chores right now!"

She poked Andrew's schoolbag unceremoniously, "You should have some conscience. Other prefects take turns, but when it comes to me, I do all the work. It's like you learned something from Dumbledore."

Andrew felt a little ashamed of what he said. At first he was on duty, but later he asked for leave every day. After Lina took over the office chores, he basically had no free days.

"It really needs to be kept secret, Senior Lina," Andrew shook his head, "I really can't tell you. How about this, if you still can't find a boyfriend in your seventh year, I'll sell you a few seniors from our academy."

"roll!"

He was responded with an extremely rude gesture.

Fortunately, the other party was not angry. Instead, he took him to the office and stood calmly at the door of the office. "Then you go in by yourself. I won't go. Signing a confidentiality agreement is too troublesome."

"Yes, please, Lina-senpai."

Andrew nodded, then pushed open the door of the office - if nothing unexpected happened, good news would be inside.

-

The time goes forward to early April.

When Andrew was finishing his routine tea party, he was suddenly stopped by students of Kodosdoriz. They came over with a newspaper and talked to Andrew.

After speaking poor Russian and the other party's poor English, Andrew finally understood why those students came to see him.

That newspaper was definitely not a wizard's newspaper, but came from Muggles. To be more precise, it was a Muggle newspaper from many days ago.

"You mean the space station?"

Andrew confirmed the matter after communicating with the other party using sign language, and the content in the newspaper gave him a piece of news that he had never known before.

On February 1995, 2, the Space Shuttle Discovery successfully docked with the Russian space station during the STS-3 mission. This was a very critical message, and Andrew thanked the student who provided the information very solemnly, and then went directly to Dumbledore.

……

"Are you sure that's actually going to work, Taylor?"

After some explanation, Dumbledore asked Andrew.

"I'm not sure, Headmaster, but we need a launch plan, some Muggle parameters, and a box that allows us to conduct some space experiments. I have to at least confirm one question: whether the magic will still be effective after leaving the earth. If it is firmly locked on the earth, then all our previous preparations are a joke."

Andrew spoke to Dumbledore very seriously.

To be honest, if it weren't for that newspaper, he would have figured out how to manually rub a big thing out bit by bit, and then try to develop it towards the interstellar direction bit by bit.

But after seeing the news, he really couldn't bear to miss such a perfect opportunity.

On May 5, the "Spectrum" experimental module of the space station will be launched. If you miss this opportunity, if you want to test some basic data, you don't know when you will be able to build your own spaceship and space station.

Although Andrew had some confidence in this, he didn't know when this opportunity would come back if he missed it.

The magic data obtained in advance from the space station may not directly lead to spells or new magical advances, and may even be deviated due to insufficient observation tools, but it is enough to determine the castability of extra-spherical magic!
If wizards are still unable to defend against those high-definition satellites when they are launched into space, then the only thing they can do next is to hide in the sea or build a safe area underground. God knows whether the concealment spells of Hogwarts can distort the observation of those things!
...

"I think I understand what you're thinking, Taylor. If it's confirmed that magic can still be used outside this planet, it will be a great thing for the entire wizarding world. I will talk to Principal Vladislav, but perhaps we have to pay a price."

"It was well worth it, Professor Dumbledore."

Andrew nodded, very sure of his opinion.

What followed was a small meeting - about space intelligence and the question of whether to take action.

After a brief and serious discussion, the four principals made a decision at the same time. In exchange for the four schools giving up internships at Kodosdoriz and giving Kodosdoriz a permanent signature in the Triwizard Tournament, Kodosdoriz would get some aerospace-related information in the coming period and share it with the four schools.

At the same time, Kodostoriz and the local Ministry of Magic will work out possible magical experiment plans to ensure that they can at least test whether magic is feasible outside the earth.

Even in the British wizarding world, a bunch of Aurors were directly involved, striving to keep the plan completely secret.

After all, if the experiment results are negative, it will be a heavy blow to the entire wizarding society - no one is willing to accept the outrageous thing that they are born living in a huge cage, especially wizards who hold power.

In the face of such an experiment, it was too easy for the original projects of the Three-Power Tournament to give way. Because it was taken too seriously, even the principal was dispatched to keep a close eye on the matter, which also resulted in almost no effort being made to promote the subsequent quiz competition.

-

“The results are unknown, but it should be good news.”

Andrew sighed and opened the door to enter.

After Andrew came in, the door was immediately closed, and then magic was used to prevent any unnecessary loopholes.

"Things are in hand."

The Auror who came over nodded and said in a heavy tone, "But now there is a serious problem. We can't get the data back."

"Did their wizard change his mind? Or is it restricted by the Statute of Secrecy? Didn't they say they would hold a meeting and temporarily agree to circumvent it?"

"Neither, Mr. Taylor," the Auror sighed, "Seven tons of blueprints and materials, there are more things than we could imagine, we can't copy them all in a short time."
