"What?"
Before Newt could figure out the situation, Louis was dragging his clothes forward. But soon, as they walked into the alley, they were met by a short-haired lady wearing a windbreaker.
Louis immediately told Newt to lower his head, trying to pass by the man as if nothing had happened. However, contrary to expectations, the woman seemed to be very purposeful. As the three of them passed by, she grabbed Newt's arm. , there was a burst of apparation, and Louis was also apparated and disappeared because he grabbed the other sleeve of Newt.
The alarm bells not far away were still blaring, and the New York Police Department rushed to the scene as quickly as possible. People ran out of the bank one after another. Even the Second Salem organization who was giving a presentation at the entrance of the bank stopped their actions. activities on.
And the three people who had disapparated happened to appear in the brick alley not far away.
"You... who are you?"
The woman looked a little out of breath. In fact, it was not an easy task to apparate with two people.
"Sorry, what did you say?"
"I'm asking you, what's your name?"
"Newt, Newt Scamander. That's Louis Wiggins, well, we're both from England."
"What's in your box?"
The woman pointed to the small brown suitcase he placed on the ground.
"Oh, that's my sniffer." Newt explained. Suddenly, he noticed a little sauce on the corner of the woman's mouth.
He was about to remind her, but the woman kept chattering.
"You're not going to let it out, are you?"
"I didn't mean it." Newt shook his head. "It is stubborn. You know, it is only interested in shiny things."
"Hey, correct me, it's not it, it's them."
Louis added fuel to the fire.
"Them? Did you let two of them escape?"
"Yes...yes." Newt was a little incoherent, "But I caught them all, nothing big went wrong?"
"Oh, Drifrance's beard, what do you think of letting the creature escape at this juncture at this time?"
"I'm going to take you away. This is a state of emergency."
"Wait a minute." Lewis stood up and spoke, "Why?"
"For you to show your magic in front of No-Majs."
As she spoke, she placed the ID in front of them, which had a photo of her ID and an eye-catching logo: MACUSA.
"Auror of MACUSA, Tina Goldstein. Please come with me."
"Are you sure this certificate is authentic?"
"What?" Tina looked at Lewis with interest, "Are you questioning the legitimacy of my identity?"
"I'm just raising a question." Louis spread his hands, "At least, I don't think Aurors will arrest people at will without evidence."
When Tina heard what Lewis said, she immediately stuffed her ID into her coat pocket.
"What evidence do you want? If possible, I can even catch that No-Maj and question him clearly."
"Of course I have no problem with you if you can find him. We haven't cast a forgetting spell on him. I'm just reminding you not to do things that are beyond your authority. If my guess is correct, you should not be an Auror. And you were secretly investigating the affairs of Second Salem."
"How did you know..."
Tina looked a little flustered. She was indeed once an Auror, but due to an unexpected incident, she violated the confidentiality law, which forced her to be demoted to the wand application management office.
It was also because of this incident that she began to secretly investigate the Second Salem organization.
"I think the more important thing now is how to find that Muggle, oh, the No-Maj you call him."
Louis explained to Tina, and then he stood next to Newt.
"Mr. Scamander, please open your suitcase."
"Are you sure?" Newt looked at him suspiciously. After all, there was an official from the Magical Congress of the United States of America standing next to him. Wouldn't it be bad to do this?
"Open it. I just felt something was wrong with this suitcase when I helped you pick it up."
Newt hesitantly placed the suitcase on the ground and slowly opened it.
There were no calls of magical animals inside, but neatly rounded pieces of bread.
"really..."
Things still went as Louis thought. When Jacob picked up the suitcase, he mixed his and Newt's suitcases.
"Oops..."
Newt suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter. Not only did Jacob not erase his memory of the magical world, he also wanted to have close contact with Newt's magical animals.
"So, you have to rely on evidence to arrest someone, Miss Goldstein." Louis said casually, as if to tell her, I saved your career once.
Tina didn't expect that she would be taught a lesson by a kid from abroad, so she could only put away her wand angrily.
Newt put away the suitcase that originally belonged to Jacob, then stood up from the ground and started walking out.
"We have to find him before things get more serious."
"Wait a minute, Mr. Scamander." Tina chased after them and asked, "What else is in your box?"
"Something is dangerous, very dangerous, if we can't stop it in time..."
He suddenly stopped talking, because not only him, but also Louis and Tina felt a strong vibration coming from somewhere on the streets of New York.
"Mr. Scamander." Tina stood behind him with some fear, "Don't tell me it was caused by the little cutie in your box."
"No, no, no, this power."
Newt was somewhat familiar with this powerful vibration. In fact, he did have such a thing in his box.
He quickly walked towards the source of the destruction. The three of them crossed a street and saw a somewhat horrific scene.
Glass was scattered on the street, and the phone booths on the road had been destroyed and were tilted here and there. Several pillars supporting the railway were also broken and crooked, falling to the ground. The most terrifying thing was that the entire road was lifted up, forming a huge The chasm gave rise to cracks of tens of meters.
The Muggle police had cordoned off the scene to prevent anyone from approaching, but this was not a difficult task for the three wizards.
"Oh my God."
"This couldn't have been done by some dark wizard."
"No wizard can be so destructive."
Newt knows who the dark wizard Tina talks about,
"Besides, if someone really performs such powerful dark magic in the Muggle world, your Magical Congress of the United States should detect it immediately."
"If I'm not mistaken, there is only one possibility for this level of destruction."
Newt stared at the huge gap and did not continue speaking, but Louis took up his words.
"Oscurus, there is an Obscurus on the streets of New York."
