Wizards of Hogwarts

Half an hour passed quietly.

The magical beasts suitcase was gently opened from the inside. Newt held the wand in one hand and cautiously emerged from the box.After seeing that there was no change in the surrounding situation and no one came to this alley, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stuffed the wand back into his pocket. He did not yet have the so-called "wand holding permission" certificate.

Moreover, land is not as good as being on a ship. When Newt was in the suitcase, in addition to worrying about the injury of the kitten, he was also worried about whether someone would suddenly lock the suitcase from the outside, and whether someone would take advantage of the money. He took the suitcase away directly, and he even worried whether any Auror would notice him, a "wizard stowaway" who came to the United States through Muggle means.

Fortunately, nothing happened.

Although it was the first time he saw a creature like Nekomata, Newt relied on his extremely rich knowledge of magical animals and only used the medicinal materials at hand to quickly prepare an animal healing potion to treat kittens suffering from arthritis. The internal organs of the kitten's body were damaged; in addition, before Newt came up, he also threw a small bottle of white blood to Elrohir. He guaranteed that after using this medicine, the kitten's physical injuries would not even leave any scars. .

Leaving Elrohir to stay in the suitcase and continue to take care of Nekomata, Newt returned to the outside world alone. In addition to worrying about the safety of the suitcase, he also had his own tasks to do after all.

The main reason Newt came to New York aboard the Elizabethan Fortress was to send Frank Thunderbird back to the Arizona desert.Of course, the reason he used to respond to other wizards' inquiries was that he wanted to buy an Appaloosa Puff, a spherical plush pet, suitable as a gift for children, especially little girls.

Nekomata's injury will not get better immediately, and Newt is not ready to leave New York for Arizona immediately.

He feels that he is a planned wizard, and he needs to take into account both the beginning and the end of the situation when doing things.

Therefore, Newt is now going to find the breeder of Appaloosa Puffs. That person lives in New York, which should not be far from here.

Newt picked up his suitcase and walked out of the alley very naturally, choosing a direction according to the detailed address in his memory.

Bank of New York City.

Newt was suddenly attracted by a shout as he passed by. Before coming to New York, he had learned about the situation of wizards in the United States in advance. He knew that wizards and Muggles here would never interact with each other.

But what he heard just now

If a Muggle woman publicizes things about wizards in public, won’t the MACUSA take care of her?

Anyway, it was on the way, and Newt, who was somewhat interested, walked over there, quietly learning about the situation from the surroundings as he walked.

The woman who kept speaking came from a Muggle organization called the "New Salem Benevolent Society". She had short dark brown hair, a mean and tough face, and was wearing an older Puritan costume.A middle-aged man in a black coat stood behind her, holding a flag with their organization's logo on it: amidst the dazzling flames of yellow and red, a pair of hands proudly clutched a rough-hewn flag. Broken wand.

A "anti -wizard organization" composed of Muggle

Newt couldn't believe his eyes. Didn't the United States do the best job of keeping the wizarding world secret? Why did this happen? Could it be that American wizards have actually had full contact with Muggles?

By accident, Newt bumped into a young woman eating a hot dog next to him.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." Newt apologized immediately, a very pure British reaction.

Tina Goldstein paid no attention to the careless Brit who bumped into her. She had learned the term from her sister Queenie, both of whom worked at MACUSA, and her focus was mostly on the front steps, The tall boy stood next to speaker Mary Lou Barrebone so much that she didn't even notice the yellow mustard from the hot dog staining her upper lip.

The boy named Cledensbarbarien was very troubled, and he was very cramped. Obviously he did not like the "New Selham Charity Association" speech activity. His adoptive mother.

Mary Lou began to speak again: "Friends, there is something lurking in our cities, waiting for opportunities to destroy, and then disappear without a trace. Don't hesitate to laugh, the wizard is among us."

Tina sneered in her heart, she was a wizard, a former Auror of the Magical Congress of the United States of America.If she hadn't been a woman who loved beating children, she'd still be an Auror and not some boring wand licensing office auditor.

However, Tina still did not regret casting the spell on Mary Lou that day. She only regretted that she should not have impulsively cast the spell in front of a group of No-Majs, especially since the group of No-Majs were all crazy followers of Mary Lou.

Mary Lou began her speech again: "We must fight together for our children and grandchildren, for our tomorrows. Join us, Second Salem, and fight side by side."

Mary Lou made a gesture, and her three adopted children, Credence, Castiti, and Modesty, who had just grown up, came down the steps and distributed "Second Salem" to everyone. " flyer.

When Newt raised his head to look at the children, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a small black animal from the corner of his eye.

sniff.

A dark, furry, magical little creature somewhere between a mole and a platypus, with a special preference for anything that sparkles.

However, all Xiuxiu should stay in the suitcase.

Newt was shocked and looked down at his suitcase, but there was no sign of it being opened, and both locks were tightly closed.

When Newt looked at the sniffer again, he had already emptied a beggar's hat, stuffed all the bright silver coins into the pocket on his belly, and was somersaulting away into the bank at the back.

Newt immediately ran after him, saying as he ran, "Sorry, sorry, excuse me."

Marylou looked a little worried when she saw that Newt was not interested in her career.

At this time, Tina, who also noticed something was wrong, squeezed through the crowd and stared at Newt's back with suspicion.

In a short time, Newt ran to the door of the New York City Bank, nervously scanning everything inside the bank, trying to find the Niffler that had sneaked out.

Inside the bank is a magnificent hall. Behind a golden counter, a large number of bank employees are busy providing their respective financial services to the customers in front of them. Everyone in the bank is well-dressed in suits and ties.

Newt's dress and behavior seemed so out of place among this group of New York financiers.

"Can I help you, sir?" A bank employee came over and asked Newt, with obvious doubts in his voice.

Newt avoided the employee's eyes, glanced around, and said rather awkwardly: "No, I'm just, just, waiting."

After saying that, Newt gestured towards a bench in the waiting area and walked over quickly, leaving the bank employee behind.

On the bench, Jacob Kowalski, a short and fat middle-aged man, was sitting. He was wearing an inappropriate suit and carrying a worn-out brown leather suitcase in his hand.He came to the city bank today because he wanted to get a loan from the bank to open a bakery of his own to get rid of his never-ending cannery job.

Like Newt, Jacob's attire is not in harmony with the people around him. What's more interesting is that the suitcases of the two are almost identical.

Tina had already reached the city bank at this time. She was hiding behind a strong stone pillar, peeping at Newt, who was obviously a little off.

The "intuition" trained in the Auror career told Tina that the British guy in the blue coat was a wizard.

Moreover, he is very "problematic".
