Chapter 137 Tower Bridge of London
"Do you need me to send it directly under the Tower Bridge in London?" the black car driver asked considerately.
Ji Qianming was about to agree, but Claire, who was awake next to him, answered first: "No need, just leave us here."
Ji Qianming was a little surprised, but did not refuse. As the vehicle slowly stopped, Ji Qianming and Claire walked off the car.
They are now on an ancient street, with many pedestrians on this street, and the surrounding buildings are exactly the same as that of Ji Qianming imagined, full of a strong European atmosphere.
"This is Baker Street. If we walk forward, there will be a very interesting place." Claire was like a tour guide, taking Ji Qianming in one direction and introducing him to life and history along the way. Unfortunately, Ji Qianming did not pass the English language, and he only understood a small part of some religious and historical descriptions.
The two walked along Baker Street for a few minutes and stopped in front of a small house. There were many pedestrians stopping to take photos in front of the small house, which made Ji Qianming a little curious.
221 Baker Street.
It seems that I have heard of this name somewhere... Ji Qianming pondered.
"No. 221 Baker Street, the residence of the famous detective Sherlock Holmes. As the greatest detective in London history, his story was compiled into a novel by his assistant Watson and published in the name of Conan Doyle. It has become a legend of his name. You should have heard of it?" Claire introduced the history of this attraction.
In fact, when she talked about Sherlock Holmes, Ji Qianming remembered this place. He was the most experienced detective novel fan. He had seen every case of Sherlock Holmes. He saw the famous No. 221 Baker Street in front of him but did not take pictures without a mobile phone. He felt regretful.
Walking along Baker Street, you will pass by Francis Creek College, the National Library of the United Kingdom, St. Pancras Railway Station, and Kings Cross Station. Unfortunately, the National Library was not open to the public that day. The Eurostar train at St. Pancras Railway Station is famous all over the world and is said to be able to reach London within two hours.
As for Kings Cross Station, it is the station where the train to the Magic School in Harry Potter is located. Claire also took Ji Qianming in to see the legendary nine and three-quarters platform. In reality, this platform is a wall rather than a pillar, which Ji Qianming did not expect.
Follow the Chaling Cross Road and is the famous Oxford Street. It is already six o'clock in the afternoon. It is dark in the UK very quickly, and it is already night around four o'clock. Now there are many people on Oxford Street. Since today is Christmas, colorful holiday lights are hanging above the head of Oxford Street, like dreams.
Due to the large flow of people, the two did not stay here and moved to the south bank of the Thames.
The London Eye under the night emits an intoxicating light. On the other side of the river is the landmark of London, Big Ben, with dazzling lights along the coast. It has to be said that the attractions in London are very concentrated. It didn't take long for the two to visit. Of course, the most important thing is that Claire, the tour guide, is powerful enough and saves a lot of unnecessary distances.
"Qianming, you can see the night in London, it's incredibly beautiful!" Claire held the fence by the river and saw the dreamy scenery. The breeze blew through her golden hair, forming a beautiful picture.
Ji Qianming smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at the slowly rotating London eyes in the distance, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. After so many hardships, he finally arrived at this place and felt indescribable.
"Are you from London?"
Claire nodded with a smile, his eyes bent into a pair of crescent moons, "That's right, I grew up in London, and I love this city, so after knowing that I have leaf patterns, I chose to join Adam Academy. I don't want such a city to be destroyed by the gods. I am willing to use my life to protect her."
The two stopped on the banks of the Thames for a while, then walked towards the London Tower Bridge. Not long after, Ji Qianming vaguely saw the giant hanging on the Thames.
"The Tower Bridge in London is the first bridge at the mouth of the Thames River. There are four stone towers connected in total. The two tallest main towers are 43 meters high. They are called the "Gate of London" and are also the main passage between our Adam Academy and the world." Claire pointed to the Tower Bridge and introduced to Ji Qianming.
"Will there be no problem with putting the passage in such a large area of people?" Ji Qianming asked, looking at the dense figures on the Tower Bridge in London.
Claire shook his head, "Although it is indeed a bit troublesome, there is nothing to do about it. A long time ago, this place was just a wooden bridge. No one expected that it would become the famous London Gate. However, the dense traffic also provided us with cover, and it was not easy to be discovered."
Ji Qianming nodded thoughtfully. This should be the so-called most dangerous place, the safest place.
The two walked in along the passage of the Tower Bridge in London, entered the interior of the Tower Bridge, and climbed up along the hovering stairs. After Ji Qianming came in, he found that the inside was much larger than the outside. The wooden stairs and walls exuded the afterglow of history. Not only were there various sculptures, but also a long glass passage, which could clearly see London at night.
The two of them walked to an exhibition hall with some collections of historical value, and tourists were taking photos of the collections.
"So where is the entrance?" Ji Qianming looked at the dense crowd around him and couldn't help asking Claire.
Claire smiled mysteriously and took Ji Qianming's hand to a corner of the exhibition hall. There was no collection here, and the space was very small, and it was in the visual blind spot of tourists in other exhibition halls.
"Follow me." Claire said in a low voice, grabbed Ji Qianming's arm and ran sideways into an ancient brick wall.
Ji Qianming was led by Claire and crashed into the wall. The pain he imagined did not appear. He just felt a flash in front of him and came to an ancient hall.
Ji Qianming widened his eyes and looked back, and found that there was a blue brick wall behind him. He touched it with his hands, but it was still solid.
"We just... were we coming in from here?" Ji Qianming spoke in disbelief. The scene just now was like Harry Pottery's nine and three-quarters platform, full of magic.
Claire smiled brightly, "Yes, isn't it magical?"
