Accompanied by the sound of apparition, four figures, one large, three small, appeared in a secluded street corner.
Of course, secluded is only relative. This seems to be an extended small street on the side of the city's main road. On the street is a row of ordinary yellow brick houses from the Victorian era, with some shells and wavy frosted stones.
decorate.
Elena raised her head and looked at the shop signs on the street outside and the light blue road signs erected next to the street lights.
"Hey, this is...Bournemouth?"
The wind carries a hint of the unique salty smell of sea water, and the surrounding buildings and environment perfectly reflect the fusion of old Victorian architecture and seaside Art Deco style, not to mention the big "Bournemouth" on the road signs.
There is no doubt that this is the most famous coastal tourist destination in the UK - Bournemouth.
"That's right. Do you have any questions? Miss Kaslana."
Dumbledore nodded happily, carefully looking at the surrounding environment, and explained gently.
"The training ground of the England national team is on the opposite coast of Studland Bay... I remember what the Muggles called that place - the long and vast Jurassic Coast is very suitable for hiding part of the
It is best to have as few of the situations as Charing Cross Road and Diagon Alley as possible without attracting the attention of the Muggles."
As time goes by, the rate of expansion of the non-magical community in the world and the scope of its activities have soared at an extremely frightening rate in recent decades, which has become an extremely troublesome problem for the Ministry of Magic in various countries.
Therefore, when the wizarding world chooses some long-standing large-scale venues to establish locations, they have to choose some places that are far away from Muggles' residences and have spacious areas. Even if some content is missing from the concept, they will not be too eye-catching.
.
"Okay, it sounds reasonable, but..."
Elena glanced at the tourists in swimsuits walking on the main road not far away, and answered slowly and thoughtfully.
Staying at the beach in summer is indeed a welfare event that people cannot be picky about and refuse.
But if you add Newt Scamander's secret residence, it would feel strangely incongruous - after all, this is one of the most visited bay towns in the UK, and it doesn't look like it at all.
Pasture suitable for raising animals.
"But... this place looks a bit cramped. Doesn't it look like Newt Scamander's home?"
As if he guessed what Elena wanted to say, Dumbledore smiled slightly, and while explaining, he took out three small golden cubes that looked like chocolate frog cards from his pocket, waved his hand gently, and floated into Eileen.
In the hands of Na and three others.
"Come, read this first. This is the 'key' that Newt has prepared for you. Without this, you can't find Newt even if you search every inch of Bournemouth.
Where is the entrance to Te’s house?”
"What is this? The address of the Chidan Loyalty Curse?"
Elena raised her eyebrows and looked at the card in her hand with suspicion.
Okay, so this is a chocolate frog card.
To be more precise, it is the character card of Newt Scamander, but compared to the pile of ordinary cards collected by Ron, the edges and background of this card seem to be made of gold foil paper.
of unknown light golden substance.
There is another difference from the common Chocolate Frog character card, perhaps it is the line written at the end.
[After resigning as the Headmaster of Hogwarts and working as the Authority for Magical Creatures in the Ministry of Magic, the famous magizoologist Newt Scamander and his wife Tina Goldstein now live in Dorset
Special County.]
"In this world, the way to protect magic safe houses is not just a magic spell... This is a more peculiar and ancient method of magic enhancement protection. Many old wizards prefer to use this method to live in seclusion.
.look!"
Dumbledore said with a smile, while pointing to the row of ordinary Victorian houses in front of Elena.
The next moment, it was as if ancient plants suddenly returned to the city. Countless vines, branches, flowerbeds, and shrubs suddenly grew out of the ground. In just a few seconds, they completely swallowed up the houses they had seen before.
After the surrounding environment was briefly blurred, it was as if pulleys were installed under all the streets and houses. The whole world quickly receded into the distance with Elena and the four as the center, and was replaced by a
A vast wilderness, and a strange house that seemed to be grown directly from a huge old tree.
"This...this is..."
Elena subconsciously widened her eyes and looked at the changes around her in stunned silence.
She didn't feel any magic fluctuations, nor did she experience any slight discomfort during space teleportation similar to when she apparated - to be precise, she didn't move at all, what she moved was the world.
As for Luna Lovegood and Hannah Abbott, who were standing next to her, they were completely stunned at this time. The two little luoli opened their mouths slightly in unison, and could not even make a sound of surprise.
, just looking at the surrounding environment blankly.
"Okay, don't be too surprised, magic is much more vast than you think."
Dumbledore patted Elena on the back and said softly.
"If you are interested in all this, you can try asking Newt later to see if he is willing to tell you some of the secrets - don't look at me, I don't know this magic either, well, he doesn't either
No. Perhaps only Newt would spend a lot of energy studying these magics. After all, he has too many wonderful creatures to take care of..."
"Now, let's go in quickly. Newt should already know we're coming."
While the two were talking, the door of the house that looked like a huge ancient tree not far away suddenly opened.
An energetic old wizard opened the door and walked out.
