Chapter 229 Harry Potter and .
Fury couldn't help but pick up the book. There were completely incomprehensible symbols on the cover.
After opening it, all the pages were blank.
"This……"
"The books of the wizarding world are different from yours."
Bruce said, "Whatever you want to see, just write it down and it will answer you."
"Oh, this is really... unique."
Fury accepted the book and vowed to study it carefully when he returned.
After doing this, he finally had the time to observe Katum carefully.
But in fact, he could only see the outline of a shadow, who was not very tall, like a child of thirteen or fourteen years old.
Other than that, there is no useful information.
Now the conversation moves to the next stage, and it's Steve's turn to speak.
"Mr. Fury, we did have some unpleasant experiences before."
Steve said sincerely, "I hope your two capable men have not been affected by this."
"Don't worry."
"They were just a little shocked, but they've recovered pretty much now," Fury said.
As he said this, he observed his surroundings calmly.
Fury was certain that he was no longer in the safe house, but how had he been teleported here?
Making a person appear in another place silently is something that modern technology is completely unable to do.
It involves space folding.
If this power could be made into a weapon...
Fury fell back into his most common train of thought.
"Mr. Fury."
Steve's words interrupted Fury's train of thought.
"In fact, today is our first official contact."
Steve said, "If there's anything you want to know, feel free to ask."
What did he want to know? It was a lot, Fury thought.
"Let's start with your return."
Fury said, "As far as I know, you fell into the deep sea seventy years ago and have never been heard from since. But now you appear before us again, and you have a new identity."
"It's a long story about this."
Steve said, "But if you really want to know, I can tell you slowly."
……
In the following minutes, Steve recounted his return from the glacier.
Except for hiding Bruce's existence, the rest are true stories.
After all, Bruce's identity to the outside world is still kept secret, and Steve doesn't want to cause him any trouble.
Fury listened carefully and asked new questions from time to time.
Steve answered all of them.
Time passed quickly, and Fury was still excited. He felt that he was opening the door to a new world and there were too many questions that needed to be answered.
However, just as he was about to continue digging for more information from the side, he clearly heard the sound of an alarm clock.
"Looks like that's where we're at for today."
Bruce suddenly said, "Mr. Fury, you should have clearly felt our sincerity in today's conversation."
“Indeed, indeed…”
Fury wanted to say something more, but soon his eyes became blurry. When the picture became clear again, he returned to his safe house.
"How did I get back?!"
He felt a little creepy. He was conscious just now and didn't notice the shift in space at all.
"Mysterious..."
Fury's view of the magical world has deepened. He has unimaginable strength, but is willing to show sincerity to them.
At this moment, Fury showed what he had in common with Bruce: paranoia.
He began to think about all sorts of things. Sometimes he doubted the sincerity of the Owl School, and sometimes he started to think about whether there was any way to use this group of people.
But no matter what, Fury's top priority now is to understand the history of the magical world in all aspects.
He touched his chest and found the wordless magic book still there.
"Just try what they say."
Fury thought to himself, he found a pen, spread out the book, and prepared to ask questions to the magic book according to Katum's instructions.
How should I ask the first question?
After thinking for a moment, Fury wrote something on the blank page.
"What is the wizarding world like?"
After thinking for a while, he added a qualifier - "now".
Soon, ink seeped out of the pages and slowly formed a paragraph of text.
"I can show you."
Reveal? Fury didn't understand what this meant, but then the book in his hand began to change.
The cover, which was originally filled with strange symbols, turned into a boy riding a broom.
He wore round-framed glasses and had a lightning scar on his forehead.
The pages that were originally completely blank were now densely covered with various words, seemingly telling a story.
"Harry Potter?"
Fury silently recited the name on the cover and then turned to the first page.
On the first page there is a paragraph:
"If you understand his story, you will understand us."
"Then I will study hard."
A new question popped up in Fury's mind. He organized his words and wrote in the blank space of the page -
"Is this Harry Potter a very remarkable figure in your wizarding world?"
"You could say that," the magic book replied.
“That’s definitely worth reading.”
Fury said no more. He slowly turned the pages and began to read.
The opening title, The Boy Who Lived.
This has already made Fury a little interested.
Then comes the main text: "Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, who live at 4 Privet Drive, always boast that they are a very decent family..."
"Dursley? Sounds like an English surname."
Fury couldn't help but wonder, "Is Privet Drive a real place name? I'll check it out later."
He continued reading.
Gradually, he forgot the time.
……
"Have you seen the Director recently?"
In the coffee room of .'s New York branch, Agents Coulson and Hill are chatting.
"I have some things to report to him in person, but I haven't been able to contact him."
"I didn't see him. Maybe he was carrying out some secret mission."
Hill said nonchalantly, "The director always acts like this. At least his vital signs detector shows that he is fine now."
"Ok."
Coulson sighed, "I just need to report to him about Stark's recent movements. It's not important intelligence, but the director should know."
"Isn't he in seclusion?"
Hill asked back, "Since he announced the dissolution of the weapons production department, the board of directors of Stark Group has expelled him from the core team."
"That's the problem..."
Coulson had just opened his mouth when the elevator door not far away suddenly opened and Fury walked out, still wearing the black windbreaker.
At least that's what he was wearing when Coulson saw him a few days ago.
"What are you doing here?" When Fury walked past the coffee room, he saw the two people slacking off through the glass.
"nothing."
Coulson drank the coffee in his hand and hurried to Fury.
"Director Fury, I have some information on Tony Stark..."
"We'll talk about those things later."
Fury waved his hand, signaling Coulson to shut up. He didn't even stop and walked straight past Coulson.
"Hill, come with me. There is a new mission."
"Ok."
Hill hurried to catch up, and when she passed Coulson, she patted him on the shoulder.
"fine."
She whispered, "The director has a bad attitude a few days every month, and it's not necessarily because he has a problem with your work."
"I see."
Coulson sighed and said, "After all, Tony Stark's information is not interesting. He is just collecting some books related to magic and alchemy."
……
Fury entered the office, followed by Agent Hill.
"Go check now to see if the word Hogwarts appears in any of the British history books."
Fury sat down in his office chair. "Also, focus on investigating whether there were any celebrities with these surnames in the ninth and tenth centuries."
He thought for a moment and said, "Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin."
Agent Hill has excellent professional qualities. Although the words Fury said were very tongue-twisting, she still remembered them deeply after listening to them once.
"I understand, Chief."
After she said this, she went to look up information.
Fury was left alone sitting in his office chair, thinking about what he had read about Harry Potter in the past few days.
"This Harry Potter may be the author of this magic book."
Fury thought, otherwise, it couldn't explain why it was always Harry's perspective.
In the past few days, Fury has not been idle. He has been investigating whether the things recorded in the book correspond to reality.
For example, he conducted in-depth research on the place name Privet Drive.
It turns out that this is not a special place. There are several streets in the UK that can be related to Privet Drive.
As for the Dursleys, Fury didn't find them.
But this is also normal. Maybe someone in the magical world deliberately concealed their existence.
“This is a story that happened in the 1990s.”
Fury thought, "So this Harry Potter is most likely still alive. With .'s resources, it won't be difficult to find him!"
A man with a lightning scar on his head, his features are still very obvious.
Fury sat quietly, thinking about everything he had seen during this period. Suddenly, he picked up a pen on the desk.
"Except your weapons!"
He tightened his grip on the pen, pointed it forward sharply, and then—
Nothing happened.
"Damn it! What am I doing?"
Fury suddenly woke up as if from a dream. He slapped his forehead and felt a little ashamed of his behavior.
"It's just a pen, not a magic wand. How can it use magic?"
He's so stupid.
In fact, Fury has thought that maybe the Harry Potter story is fake.
The magic book was deceiving him. The so-called Hogwarts was just a fairy tale written for children.
But when Fury expressed this view to the Magic Book, the Magic Book showed more evidence.
For example, the contents of Hogwarts textbooks, past issues of the Daily Prophet, and novels written by a best-selling author named Lockhart.
Everything, too detailed.
If the story of the witcher is false, then the amount of work to create such a false world would be astronomical.
What's more, the magic book in Fury's hand was indeed performing various miracles.
After Fury made his judgment, he finally came to a conclusion.
The stories in the book are at least 90% true!
Now that the magical world is real, Fury immediately has a new problem -
Can he learn magic?
Fury spent several days trying to visualize the process of using magic, but no matter how hard he tried, he was always stuck at the first step and couldn't get around it.
He has no wand.
"The only solution now is to go to that special space again and ask Katum if he can give me a magic wand."
But Fury couldn't take the initiative.
He can only go to that space if Katum is willing to meet.
"magic……"
It was hard for Fury not to be itchy about this; this was a human power, born and bred entirely on Earth.
He had to get it.
Although he also knew that some people in the wizarding world seemed to discriminate against Muggles, it didn't matter. Fury was a black man and he knew very well how to get what he wanted in a discriminatory environment.
dong dong dong-
Just then, there was a knock on the office door.
"Please come in." Fury frowned, wondering which blind guy was disturbing him at this time.
Soon, Coulson's head popped in, a familiar smirk on his face.
"Colson?"
Fury said coldly, "I should have said just now that we can talk about your matter later, right?"
"It's like this, Chief, I didn't fail to take your words to heart."
Coulson tried to smile and said, "But just now, something new happened, and I think you will be interested in it."
"What is it?" Fury asked impatiently.
"It's about Tony Stark."
Seeing that Fury was about to curse again, Coulson quickly said, "Stark has been acting strangely recently. He seemed to be planning to build a mecha, but a few days ago, he stopped all work and has been studying some kind of magic..."
"Ok?"
Hearing the keyword "magic", Fury suddenly stopped.
He showed a new interest and said slowly, "Go on."
Coulson felt relieved and continued:
"According to my investigation, Tony Stark seems to have been stimulated by something. He seems to have been trying to research some kind of magic circle that can teleport himself to a special space."
Teleportation, space...
As these words appeared, Fury's interest grew.
"How do you know?" he asked.
"Because Stark has been communicating with some people who claim to have magical powers."
Coulson said, "For example, fortune tellers, tarot card masters, psychics, physiognomists..."
"Those are just scammers, right?" Fury asked.
"It is true, and Stark discovered this, and after he met with these people, he kicked them out."
Coulson reported, "I got all this information from them."
"Stark should have paid them a lot of hush money, right?" Fury asked with interest.
"But SHIELD has special means of memory recovery."
Coulson also made a joke at the right time, but soon he returned to the point.
"Anyway, Stark seems to have found a few really capable people these days, and he plans to hold an internal party to meet those people properly."
"Party?" Fury thought for a moment and asked, "When?"
"Tonight," Coulson said.
