From Kamal Taj to Hogwarts

"Look at the tips of the kitten's nails," Newt said to Sivan.

Sivan came closer, imitating Newt's example and tilted his head, looking at the sharp nails of the kitten that were squeezed out by Newt's pressing of the kitten's paw pads.

"Is there anything special?" Xiwen asked with some confusion after looking for a long time without seeing anything.

Newt turned his head and glanced at Xiwen, pointed at the tip of the kitten's nail, and said, "Look at the tip of her nail, is it a little darker than the back half?"

Xiwen nodded, indicating that he saw it.

"Actually, this is a characteristic of Zuowu." Newt explained. "Because Zuowu is good at running and likes to jump, the tips of this magical animal's nails are tougher than those of other large cats. This is why the color deepens."

The manifestation of this characteristic.”

"Also, look here." Newt wanted to point it out to Xiwen, but the kitten seemed to be unwilling and let out a dissatisfied "meow".

Newt very considerately let go of the cat's paws, scratched the kitten's head, and made her purr comfortably.

Then Newt turned his head and explained to Xiven: "Under normal circumstances, cats' nails will grow naturally, and when they grow to a certain length, they will exceed their claws, which will affect their walking. So when the length of the nails is too long,

Sometimes, most of them choose to bite off the excess part of their nails and then sharpen them again."

"However, Zuowu's nails are different. These dark parts are not only tough, but can also fall off naturally after a period of time. Therefore, there are no bite marks on the kitten's nails."

'So how do you see such small details?' Xiwen smiled and nodded, but in fact he was shocked to the point of numbness inside. 'Can I only say that he is worthy of being the most famous magizoologist in the world...'

"Zouwu's characteristics are probably like this, but I haven't found the characteristics of the cat and leopard in the kitten." Newt continued. "I guess I can feel the ability of the cat and leopard when I personally experience it."

"Well, you don't want to be knocked down by a kitten like Professor Kettleburn, do you?" Xiwen said with an unnatural expression.

"What? Sylvanus has already experienced it?" Newt suddenly asked.

"Ah, yes..." Xiwen was stunned for a moment and said.

"Unfortunately, we don't know the specific effects of your cat's ability now. We are in a hurry now, so we don't want to delay the business." Newt said regretfully. "Otherwise, I must experience her hypnosis myself.

ability."

Xiwen: "..."

…

After traveling for more than ten hours and passing several stations along the way, the European Magic Star train finally stopped at their destination - Paris.

Newt picked up his suitcase as usual and walked off the train with Sivan.

After walking out of the station, Newt reached out to Sivan.

Xiwen was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what he meant.

"I think we can use some ways to save time." Newt turned to look at Sivan and said with a smile.

"Oh, okay." Sivan quickly grabbed Newt's arm.

Then, the two people's bodies twisted and disappeared.

When the two of them appeared again, they were already standing on a street with a strong sense of history. Antique buildings made of marble were lined up along the street.

The two of them were in front of a cafe, where some male and female witches in wizard robes were drinking coffee comfortably.

Newt looked at this place with a nostalgic expression and said softly: "Just ten years ago, Gellert Grindelwald summoned his followers near here."

"I heard that he once wanted to destroy the entire Paris?" Xiwen was silent for a moment and asked.

Newt nodded, with a look of fear on his face, and said: "At that time, Grindelwald released a powerful magical flame at Père Lachaise Cemetery. I even suspect that the flame was more destructive than the Li Fire. sex."

"If Flamel hadn't arrived in time and brought us to end this spell, it would have grown stronger as it was devoured, and eventually the whole of Paris would have been destroyed in a sea of ​​fire."

What kind of flames could destroy a big city like Paris? It was hard for Xiven to imagine, and it was even harder to accept that this person would be their enemy.

"Does he not care about his believers? It's impossible for all believers to escape Paris, right?" Sivan asked.

"In fact, they don't need to escape." Newt shook his head and said. "I don't know how Grindelwald did it, but his flames can keep all those who support his ideas intact."

Hearing Newt's words, Sivan's heart became heavy.

For the first time, Xiven realized so clearly that the Dark Lord his Aunt Vader was following actually possessed such powerful power.

Newt seemed to see Sivan's heavy heart and comforted him: "There is no need to be so stressed. Don't forget, we still have Dumbledore."

"Yes, we still need Dumbledore." Sivan nodded, but still couldn't help but ask a question that he had been struggling with for a long time and that the entire wizarding world had been wondering for a long time. "But why didn't Dumbledore go in person? What about stopping him?"

Newt was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said to Sivan: "I can't tell you this on my own. But you can ask Dumbledore yourself."

Afterwards, he didn't want to say anything more and just took Xiwen to the corner of the street.

"Card." He said simply.

Xiwen took out the golden card from the pocket watch.

The moment the card appeared, the stone buildings along the street suddenly expanded, and another ancient stone house suddenly appeared in front of Xiwen's eyes!

The stone house has three floors, and its outer walls are extremely exquisite, with intricate carvings carved between each two floors. The elegant windows are made of colorful glazed squares and cover the entire wall outside the first floor.

There is an old wooden door near the street on the other side, and a few steps connect it to the street. The wall on the other side is empty, with only a sign hanging on it, which says that it has been eroded and blurred by time. The words "21 rue Montmorency".

"Are we going to knock on the door?" Sivan felt a little nervous when he thought that this was where Nick Flamel lived.

Newt chuckled softly, took the card from Sivan's hand, and walked to the door casually.

As Newt approached, the wind chimes outside the door made a crisp and sweet sound.

Then, the metal door opened automatically.

"Let's go, Nick should be waiting for us inside." Newt turned around and said to Sivan with a smile.
