Hope took another blank voice-changing button from his pocket and handed it to the two of them, and said: "This is a blank one, and the voice has not been recorded yet. You can keep it for research. When I come back, I will find you two and take you with me." Go somewhere.”
After that, Hope hurriedly left, leaving George and Fred looking at each other.
The reason why Hope left in a hurry was because he saw Xue Ya flying towards him. It seemed that his father had already arrived.
When they arrived at the Three Broomsticks Bar, Joey was sitting alone at the table. When he saw Hope coming, he stood up in a hurry and came to Hope's side, pulling Hope away.
Hope, who was staggered, said, "Are you so anxious?"
Joey said without looking back: "Of course, time waits for no one. If it's too late, those smuggled magical animals will be sent back."
When they came outside the store, Joey took out his magic wand and with the distortion of time and space, the two of them disappeared like water being pumped into a toilet.
With a feeling of stomach discomfort, Hope came to a strange house.
Holding back the feeling of vomiting, Hope asked doubtfully: "Aren't you going to the Ministry of Magic? Where is this place?"
Joey replied: "The Ministry of Magic has no place to store so many magical animals. This is Newt Scamander's house, and all the smuggled magical animals are stored here."
Joey walked to the door and knocked. After a while, the door opened and a kind old man came out.
"Lloyd? Have any more smuggled magical animals been found?" He looked at the little wizard next to him and asked, "Who is this?"
Joey replied: "This is my son, Hope Lloyd. He has some special talents. I hope he can help find some clues."
Hope saw Newt's surprised expression and knew what he was going to say.
"I just realized that you actually have a son?" Newt said in surprise.
Hope said obediently: "Hello, Grandpa Newt."
Newt turned sideways, made way for him, and said, "Come in quickly."
Hope followed Joey into Newt's house, which was a bit messy.
Newt explained to himself: "The Nifflers ran out just now, causing chaos in the house. The smuggled magical animals are all in the basement, but most of them have been received by me in boxes and will be waiting for the Ministry of Magic." After coordination over there, I will send them back to their original place.”
Newt looked at Hope and said, "Tina went to the United States to visit his sister. If she were here, she could make cookies for you."
Hope said, "Don't bother, Grandpa Newt."
Without saying anything else, Newt led the two of them to the basement. When they walked in, Hope immediately noticed that it was different. This was a completely different world.
A variety of environments and a variety of magical animals living there.
After scanning around, Hope saw three familiar figures in the wilderness area not far away, the Riem Cow, and one of them had lost a piece of chest hair.
Riem Niu seemed to recognize Hope and looked at him with wide eyes. Suddenly, Hope had an ominous premonition.
The enemy was extremely jealous when they met. Riem kicked the ground and pushed towards Hope, especially the one with a bald chest.
Newt sensed something was wrong and immediately stood in front of Hope. He didn't know what magic spell he used. The cow stopped after seeing Newt. Newt reached out and stroked the head of the cow. Emniu then became quiet.
Those angry little eyes seemed to say you are lucky.
Joey, who was on guard, also put down his wand and looked at Hope suspiciously: "Why does it feel like it has a grudge against you?"
No, he plucked the hair on one of the chests. However, his father couldn't know this. The Ministry of Magic's visit to the Forbidden Forest was obviously aimed at the three Riem cows. His father couldn't let him know about sneaking into the Forbidden Forest.
Hope stammered: "How could it be? You got it wrong."
Joey looked at Hope with increasingly weird eyes, and said with a smile: "You didn't sneak into the Forbidden Forest, did you? Tell your dad if you have nothing to do. Dad was also very naughty when he was in school."
Hope chuckled in his heart, will I be fooled by you? When you whipped me with your belt, you didn't do it lightly.
"How could it be? I am a well-behaved little Hufflepuff wizard and I never violate school rules."
"That's what it is. Hufflepuff's little wizards are indeed very well-behaved." Joey, realizing that there seemed to be something wrong, asked in surprise: "Which house did you just say you were assigned to?"
Hope said, "Hufflepuff."
Joey frowned and thought.
"That's not right. I'm Gryffindor and your mother is Slytherin. How come you were sorted into the mediocre Hufflepuff?"
The corner of Hope's mouth twitched when she heard Joey's words. Think carefully before speaking. Hufflepuff is mediocre.
The person next to you now is, in 1947, almost single-handedly established the Werewolf Registry, obtained the order "Prohibition of Breeding for Experimental Purposes", a second-level magician of Sir Merlin, and captured the Dark Lord Gellert. Grindelwald and Newt Scamander, who edited the popular wizarding world Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
He was a serious Hufflepuff student, even though he dropped out of school. Do you think such people are ordinary?
Newt, who had calmed down Reem's cow, interrupted the two people's interlude and told the father and son: "They were tortured by wizards drawing blood before, so they are more hostile to people with wands."
Hope suddenly realized that they had seen his wand when they came to hit him without saying a word, so Hope hid the wand more tightly, and Joey also hid the wand immediately. Who knows what other magical animals would do? So will it.
Newt took out his suitcase, opened it, and walked in. Joey and Hope followed suit.
Inside the box is a small room where some of Newt's tools are placed.
Pushing open the door of the wooden house, the good guy is in another world, like the basement outside, but now it is empty, with only some magical animals that look a little sluggish. Compared with the lively environment outside, this place is far worse.
Newt looked inside the box with a look of nostalgia in his eyes. Back then, he carried this box and visited more than a hundred countries on five continents, observing magical animals from all over the world, and also brought some magical animals that were about to become extinct here to be cultivated. , ensuring that they could continue until he and Dumbledore foiled Gellert Grindelwald's plan, and everything changed.
Hope asked Joey in a low voice: "What's wrong with Grandpa Newt? Why does he look a little sad?"
Joey whispered back: "Maybe he is nostalgic for the past. You may not know that Mr. Skomander kept many magical animals in his box at that time, and later caused a lot of trouble, until he defeated Geller. After Grindelwald's plan, the Ministry of Magic around the world knew about his box and asked him to empty it to prevent danger."
Hope: (─.─|||
