Chapter 43 Another night raid? (read more)

Gretel secretly complained in his heart that the invisible beast was more like a gentleman than him.

While receiving the hand of friendship extended by the invisible beast.

The invisible beast's hands are not big, even half the size of eleven-year-old Gretel's.

Looking closely, Gretel didn't find a trace of dirt on it.

Each strand of silk-like fine hair seems to be shining with silver light every moment.

Newt had previously introduced that the invisible beast was the Niffler's best friend, and Gretel fully suspected that it wanted to pluck the fur from the invisible beast.

It was obviously just a magical animal, but Gretel could see a hint of sadness in its dark eyes hidden in its hair.

Newt stood aside, silently observing the invisible beast's expression.

From the very beginning, this was the destination where he brought Gretel in.

Unlike most wizards, Newt felt that the most precious thing about invisible beasts was not their silver-white fur that could be used to weave invisibility cloaks.

Rather, it is their innate gift of prophecy that is envied by every fortune teller who is tortured to the point of going crazy because he cannot interpret the meaning of the divination images.

Newt is born close to nature and can live in harmony with any magical animal.

That's why I learned from the mouths of invisible beasts about their unknown and enviable prophecy talent.

It is precisely because of the protection of their innate gift of prophecy that they have managed to survive despite the wizards coveting their invisible fur.

It can even be said that invisibility has never been their greatest reliance.

The name Newt didn't include in the book was the Seer in Fantastic Beasts.

No one, Newt, not even Dumbledore knew about this secret.

Ever since he first received Dumbledore's letter, he had been thinking about how to face Gretel.

Like Dumbledore, Newt also experienced two generations of Dark Lords, Grindelwald and Voldemort.

Even Grindelwald, the Dark Lord, was finally brought to justice with his own help.

He knew very well that the current magical world could no longer afford any turmoil.

The development of the Muggles has long left the wizards behind. To the wizards, describing it as lingering is like beautifying.

If the wizarding world welcomes a new Dark Lord who is stronger than Grindelwald and Voldemort, the wizarding world will definitely be turned upside down.

Even without waiting for the Muggles to break the balance in the future, wizards will collectively disappear into history.

Therefore, even if his talent keeps telling him that the little wizard in front of him is harmless now and can be trusted.

Newt wants to take Gretel to meet the Invisible Beast.

He needs the invisible beast to give him reassurance.

One person and one beast did not hold hands for long.

It's like two strangers meeting for the first time. Neither one is too embarrassed to shake hands for too long. After polite greetings, they part ways.

One returned to Newt and marveled at the gentleness and elegance of the invisible beast, a magical animal.

The other one turned around and returned to the tree hole where he was living. After picking and choosing for a while, he picked up a little furball.

"???"

Newt suddenly couldn't understand.

Invisible beasts have a strong sense of family. As long as they are recognized by them, any person or animal will be regarded as their family.

Just like him, and Xiu Xiu, they are all non-staff members of the invisible beast group.

However, things have priorities, and people have closeness and distance. Naturally, the inheritance of non-staff personnel and bloodline cannot be compared.

The little fur ball brought by the invisible beast is the new baby of their tribe this year.

Even Newt only saw it once from a distance, and it was absolutely impossible to get close.

He didn't know what the invisible beast saw in the prophecy that made it behave so intimately towards Gretel.

And judging from its appearance, it wasn't just that he wanted to show Gretel his little cub.

The hand that was handed over obviously wanted to give this cub to him.

Facing Grete's questioning gaze, Newt didn't know what to say for a moment.

This is the first time Newt has seen this situation in all his years.

He really didn't know how to explain it, so he had no choice but to take Gretel and run away.

——

"Dr. Scamander, was that just now?"

After all, Grete couldn't restrain his thirst for knowledge and raised his own questions while holding hot tea.

Newt rubbed his nose in embarrassment, "I think it's because you are too popular with them. I don't know the specific reason yet. I need to communicate with them to find out.

You have to stay here for a few more months. You will definitely know why before you leave. If you have nothing else to do, you might as well study it with me.

Magical creatures are really interesting and I remember starting to dissect Hokrap in my bedroom when I was seven years old."

[Hocklap: A mushroom from Scandinavia with strong reproductive capacity. It is rated x level by the Ministry of Magic]

Gretel declined. Although magical animals were really interesting, Gretel's business plan did not include wild animals.

He will also take advantage of this time to conduct market research in America.

He wanted to earn his first pot of gold and lay a solid foundation for his business empire before the Muggle communications market took off.

After feeling the pain of the portkey last time, Grete felt that he might have underestimated his invention.

Wizards may need instant communication more than he thought.

At night, everything is quiet.

From the gap in the suitcase in the basement, a pair of palms covered with silver fluff slowly stretched out and quietly opened the suitcase.

The opened suitcase was generous, flooding the basement with sunlight from the inner space.

Several figures appeared furtively, then gradually faded in the light, and the cat came out of the basement.

However, because it has not left the space all year round, the invisible beast obviously did not realize how many warning spells Newt had made to prevent the magical creatures in this space from causing trouble.

The moment they stepped out of the basement, the alarm sounded throughout the entire building at 360 degrees.

Imprisonment Curse, Swamp Curse, Freezing Curse, Weakness Curse, Stunning Curse...

All the magic spells that could slow down the escape of magical animals smashed several invisible beasts in just a short moment.

Grete also rushed out in his pajamas, unlike ordinary first-year wizards.

He has already mastered most of the magic spells to level three, and if he takes action within a certain period of time, the effect will be no less effective than that of any adult wizard.

But what surprised a few people was that when they rushed to the basement, they did not see the culprit who opened the suitcase.

There were only open suitcases on the ground and a few tree-guards struggling to climb outward.

When he saw Newt appear, he was leaning down to hook his companion's tree guard on the steps below, and jumped up angrily.

He pointedly complained to Newt.

?

Gretel couldn't understand the meaning of the gestures made by Guillotine's hands and feet, but he could understand the confusion on Newt's face.

That expression was exactly the same as the complicated expression on Quirrell's face when Gretel took out the textbook from the small bag given by Voldemort in front of him.

"Emergency." Accompanied by Newt's curse.

Several invisible beasts held up their own cubs and appeared in the swamp formed by the curse in an angry and funny manner.

Their faces were full of astonishment, as if they didn't expect Newt, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to actually install traps for them.

Newt, Tina, and Gretel, sit together in the three courts.

As a witness, Guoshu Guuluo waved flags and shouted on the nearby Bogu stand to increase his prestige.

Several invisible beasts were holding their cubs in their arms, squatting awkwardly in the middle, waiting for Newt's trial.

As the case proceeds, Gretel has a big question mark on his forehead.

What?

Another night attack?
