Chapter 22 The horrific sequelae of Motla rat bites

"It's so nice to see you here." Newt, who was overjoyed, immediately took the suitcase, struggled and stuffed the restless Motler rat back into the box.

Tina looked at the impossibly handsome man who suddenly appeared at the door in a daze. The former elite Auror almost fell into a state of infatuation. She bit the tip of her tongue fiercely and forced herself to wake up.

Tina couldn't help but look at Elrohir. She asked Newt directly: "What else is in your suitcase?"

Newt quickly winked at Elrohir, and Elrohir calmed down knowingly, even though he had a lot of questions to ask Newt.

"Who are these two people?" Elrohir wanted to quickly obtain some information through mind communication, so as not to accidentally expose it later.

"The man I met by chance in the bank before, and the witch is from the Magical Congress of the United States of America," Newt quickly responded in his mind. "It's best not to expose the magical creatures in the box, whether they escaped or not. Lost it, magical animals are not allowed here in New York.”

"Understood." Elrohir nodded slightly.

Newt turned around and faced Tina, with a fake-looking smile on his face: "Nothing, just a few."

Jacob, who was leaning against the corner, recognized Newt who was speaking and said breathlessly: "It's you."

Newt gave him an awkward but polite smile: "Hello."

Tina patted Jacob's arm reassuringly and asked: "Relax, Mr. No-Maj, what is your name?"

"No-Maj" Jacob's voice sounded a little confused, "Kowalski Jacob"

Tina grabbed Jacob's hand that was shaking like chaff and shook it, probably as a sign of goodwill, even though Jacob didn't know her at all.

Newt raised his wand towards Jacob, preparing to cast the Oblivion Curse on this "fish that slipped through the net".

Facing the unfamiliar wand, Jacob shrank in fear.

Tina stood in front of Jacob to protect him. She said to Newt: "You can't cast a forgetting spell on him. We need him to be a witness."

Elrohir, who was unaware of the situation, watched everything in front of him with interest. He felt like he was on a movie set. It would be better if he had another bowl of popcorn.

"I'm sorry." Newt put down his wand, "I just walked such a long way, and you kept yelling at me, saying that I should cast the Oblivion Charm earlier."

Tina said in that arrogant tone unique to women: "But he doesn't look good now that he's injured."

Newt said quickly, "He'll be fine. Mortla rat bites are usually not serious."

Jacob retched violently in the corner, making a sickening sound.

Tina looked at Newt suspiciously, and Elrohir couldn't help but look sideways.

"Okay," Newt shrugged, "I admit he reacted a little more strongly than I've seen before, but if it's really serious,"

"What kind of demon is that? What are the usual side effects of Motla rat bites?" Tina asked.

"Fainting, nausea, retching"

"What if the situation is serious?"

"How do you say this?" Newt clicked his tongue. "The first symptom is that sparks are coming out of the door." Shield word, you understand?

Elrohir's eyelids twitched, and Jacob quickly touched the crotch of his pants.

Tina let out a disgusting scream: "It's just terrible."

"The duration is uncertain, it's only 48 hours at most." Newt added.

"It's only 48 hours, don't you think this is bad enough?" Tina screamed.

"I can keep him if you want," Newt suggested.

"Keep him, ah, he can't stay, at least not in your hands," Tina said, "Both of you, come with me now."

"I don't know why I should go with you," Newt said with great resistance.

"I'm just passing by, so I don't need to go with you," Elrohir added with a smile. His position was naturally consistent with Newt's.

Tina tried to drag Jacob, who was not fully conscious, from the floor, but she was too weak to do it.

"Here, help me," she ordered Newt.

Newt had to step forward to help. He and Tina supported Jacob on the left and right.

"What about me?" Elrohir pointed to herself.

"You should come too, it would be better for us to act together." Newt said with a hint.

"I'm here, I'm dreaming, right?" Jacob spoke in confusion, intermittently, "Yes, I'm tired, I have never been to the bank, and I have never seen you. This is all a big deal. Nightmare, right?”

Tina sighed and said, "That goes for you and me, Mr. Kowalski."

Tina took Jacob, Newt took Elrohir, and the four of them started to apparate together. At the last second before leaving the room, Elrohir quietly glanced at the old woman hanging on the wall. Photos of people.

With a crackle, the figures of several people disappeared.

The photo shook slightly, then fell down, revealing a small hole in the wall behind it. Hidden in the hole was a small black beast named Xiu Xiu.

New York, brownstone street.

Tina walked alone in front, while Newt and Elrohir supported Jacob, who was in poor condition, on both sides to help him walk steadily.

"Turn right here" Tina pointed the way for several people.

At the same time, Jacob made a strong sound of retching, and it was obvious that the Motla rat bite on his neck was affecting him more and more.

The four of them turned the corner, and Tina asked the men behind to hide behind a huge repair truck, while she peeked at a house across the road.

"Okay, before you go in, let me make it clear here," Tina said to the three Elrohirs, "I shouldn't have brought the man back to the apartment."

"In that case, I won't bother you. Elrohir, Mr. Kowalski and I can easily find other accommodations." Newt immediately followed the snake.

"Oh no, no," Tina quickly grabbed Jacob's arm and pulled him across the street, "pay attention to the steps."

Newt and Elrohir looked at each other and followed dutifully.

"How did you and this witch meet?" Elrohir asked Newt during the communication of thoughts. "And didn't you say it was in a bank before? Why was my suitcase in this department when I came out? In the hands of Mr. Waski"

Newt raised his eyes and glanced at Tina's back, and replied in his mind: "Things are a bit difficult to explain. It's probably like this, this and so."

Newt fast forwarded in his mind and told Elrohir everything that had happened before. Anyway, he was not afraid of being listened to by Tina when he was speaking in a state of mind communication.

After Newt finished explaining the reason, the four of them had already walked into the building and crept up the stairs.

Cleverly avoiding the landlady's scrutiny, Tina led the three grown men into the Goldstein sisters' apartment.

It’s a slightly poor apartment, but it’s brought to life by the magic of everyday life, making it incredibly cozy.The enchanted iron was working automatically in the corner, and several clothes drying racks were clumsily rotating automatically in front of the fire, drying all kinds of women's underwear.Magazines are scattered around the room: Witches' Companion, Witch Whispers, and Transfiguration Today.

A beautiful witch with short blond hair, possibly the most beautiful girl in witch robes ever, was standing there in a close-fitting silk petticoat, smiling at the people who entered the room.

"Tini, you've finally come to your senses. You know how to bring men home, but are the numbers a bit too much?" Queenie Goldstein's eyes lingered on Elrohir. "But, you have quite good taste."
