After seeing Li Chuan, Newt immediately patted the horse-shaped water monster on the head, and the horse-shaped water monster took him to the shore very docilely.
"Newt, only you can make it so docile."
Li Chuan took two steps closer and smiled.
New York has a special temperament. Even the most violent magical creatures will become docile after meeting him, not only because he understands magical creatures, but also because of his heartfelt concern for magical creatures.
Magical creatures are different from ordinary creatures, probably because of their magic power, they are more sensitive.
It is very realistic that no matter how friendly Li Chuan behaves, most magical animals are very wary of him.
Because in his heart, he has no difference between magical creatures and ordinary creatures. In his opinion, as long as it threatens his safety, even if it is a rare creature with only one left in the world, he will not kill it when it is time to kill it.
Soft-handed.
There is another point. It may be that he has killed too many people. Humans cannot feel it, but sensitive magical creatures can, so they will not get close to him.
"You can do it too."
Newt got off the horse-shaped water monster, touched its head, and then cast a spell to instantly evaporate the water from its body.
After the horse-shaped water monster waited for Newt to come ashore, it instinctively bared its teeth at Li Chuan and roared threateningly, seeming to be very afraid of Li Chuan.
Li Chuan didn't care either. He stepped forward like lightning and grabbed the horse's mouth so that it couldn't attack him. Then he smiled and raised his hand to rub the horse's mane.
"You little cutie, can't you be friendly to me? I like you the most among these little guys!"
With his mouth held by Li Chuan, the horse-shaped water monster tried hard to roll his huge body to get rid of it, but found that no matter how hard he tried, Li Chuan's hand would not move at all. In the end, he had no choice but to be forced to touch his head by Li Chuan.
"It's just that everyone's approach is different."
Newt, who was drying his clothes, looked at the horse-shaped water monster whose mouth was held by Li Chuan and became honest, and said the next sentence helplessly.
Many of the magical animals here are dangerous and have bad tempers. In addition to him, even Bunty, who often comes to help take care of and feed them, will be injured by them.
But Li Chuan is an exception. Li Chuan also likes the magical animals here and often comes to help feed them. However, he may have the blood of other magical animals in his body. He guesses that it is either a giant or a troll.
The basis is his terrifying strength.
Therefore, most magical animals may feel threatened and would be repelled by Li Chuan's approach, or even attack him.
But Li Chuan was always able to get them to be honest quickly, even though the method he used was different from his own.
"Why didn't Credence come with you today?"
After the two returned to the living room upstairs, Newt didn't see Credence, who followed Li Chuan every time, and asked in surprise.
Li Chuan poured himself a cup of tea:
"I recently adopted an orphan wizard. He helps take care of him at home. He didn't come over this time."
"You adopted another child?"
Newt looked a little surprised. Li Chuan was only in his twenties and had already adopted two children before his girlfriend got married.
Li Chuan smiled:
"Just like you see those poor magical animals you bring back, I see those poor children sometimes do the same.
The child's mother was a wizard who died when she gave birth to him, and his father was a Muggle who left after he sobered up because his mother used a love potion to force him into a family.
I thought it was too pitiful to leave him in a Muggle orphanage, so I adopted him, since there aren't many people in our family anyway."
"Tom, you are such a kind man!"
Newt looked at Li Chuan and couldn't help but sigh.
From the moment he met Li Chuan until now, Li Chuan really gave him the impression that he was a perfect person, even more perfect than his brother who was a war hero.
"So sometimes I quite agree with Grindelwald. The Statute of Secrecy is not a very good law. It always causes some tragedies between wizards and Muggles.
Of course, Grindelwald is too extreme. It would be great if one day Muggles and wizards could live together openly and peacefully."
Li Chuan sighed.
He often raised this idea in front of Newt because he knew that both Newt and Dumbledore had this idea.
You must know that when Dumbledore was young, he also had the ideal of reforming the magical world with Grindelwald, but this ideal dissipated due to Grindelwald's extreme attitude towards Muggles and the death of his sister.
He wants Newt and Dumbledore to understand that they are the same kind of people.
Newt nodded in agreement when he heard Li Chuan's sigh.
He also doesn't like the rules and regulations of the Secrecy Act, so he has been reluctant to join the Ministry of Magic. However, he has no prejudice against Muggles. For example, his friend Jacob is a Muggle.
"Newt, I want to visit Professor Dumbledore. I wonder if you are free today?"
"available!"
Newt's eyes suddenly lit up. He was worried about how to push away his enthusiastic brother and ask him to have dinner with the girl he once liked, who is now his sister-in-law.
"Dumbledore mentioned you in three letters he wrote to me. He really wants to meet you."
"Then let's set off now. It's been a long time since we've been back to Hogwarts."
Li Chuan immediately stood up and suggested.
Newt also nodded happily, wrote a note for the witch Bunty to send to his brother, and then apparated with Li Chuan to the Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley.
Generally, there are four ways for wizards to go to Hogwarts. One is the Hogwarts Express, but it is only available to young wizards who are going to school and teachers who are passing by.
The second is Pegasus and carriage, a method commonly used by a few wealthy wizards and wizards from the Ministry of Magic.
The third is Apparition, but Hogwarts has the most powerful anti-Apparition spell in the world. You can only enter outside the school on foot, and the distance cannot be too far.
The fourth and most commonly used one is floo powder. Normally, the floo network in Hogwarts is disconnected, so you need to go to Hogsmeade first, and then walk to Hogwarts.
These four methods are the most commonly used, and there are others that are more unusual and basically belong to individual cases, such as flying broomsticks, magic cars, magic motorcycles, etc.
Li Chuan and Newt chose the fourth option. They apparated to the Leaky Cauldron and used Floo powder directly through the bar's fireplace to reach Hogsmeade.
The fireplace in Newt's house does not have a floo network, or most wizards' homes do not have a floo network, otherwise it would be too unsafe for someone to come to your house just by calling your name.
Unless the family is relatively poor and has nothing worth remembering, then it doesn't matter.
And generally, there are public fireplaces in wizarding gathering places, such as the Leaky Cauldron.
