Hogwarts Homecoming

The bright moon is hanging in the west, and the bustling traffic in the city throughout the day has finally subsided. But even at this time, New York, a modern metropolis, still has many brightly lit office buildings, such as the financial mecca of the Muggle world. , which stretches from Broadway to Wall Street on the East River, including the twin towers of the World Trade Center where Amosta and Rhimes lived.

And, of course, the Woolworth Building, home to the Magical Congress of the United States of America.

However, the No-Majs looked at the building in total darkness from the outside, and had no idea that a large and special group was working all night to solve the incident that happened in New York tonight.

On the floor where the security department is located, an emergency meeting is being held.

"Currently, we have completed the camouflage of the accident scene. No-Majs will believe that the explosion was caused by the aging wires in the building."

In the low-pressure conference room, an Auror stood up and stepped out. Graves, whose face was as dark as water, said,

"Thankfully, the explosion happened from the rooftop, so no No-Majs witnessed the magic."

Graves nodded, and the reporting Auror continued,

"In addition, Amosta Brain provided us with information. He speculated that the cause of this incident was an error in the transaction of the poisonous leopards smuggled into the country between the two parties."

Newt Scamander strongly requested that he take care of the poisonous leopard smuggled into the country, but the Department of Security could not allow such a dangerous creature to fall into the hands of individuals, especially the magical beast hidden in New York's Central Park. There have been several cases of missing magical creatures with 5X danger level in the animal sanctuary.

Hearing Amosta Brain's name, some commotion broke out in the originally solemn and repressive conference room. Graves knocked on the table with his finger, and the rising commotion was immediately suppressed.

"On what basis did he make this inference?"

Graves looked at the wizard who was reporting, his slightly narrowed eyes showing a flash of vigilance.

"According to Amosta Brain, the person who brought the poisonous leopard into the country was an Asian. Because he entered the country at the same time, he had some images of the wizard. We have verified this from the Immigration Management Department. According to the information, from the entry application he submitted, we found that his name is Sato Ryuhei and he is 37 years old.

Ryuhei Sato stayed in a Muggle hotel after entering the country. This evening, he came to the Blind Pig Bar via No-Maj transportation. Amosta Brain recognized this person. But Ryuhei Sato did not stay at the Blind Pig Bar. After meeting the two wizards involved in the transaction, the three of them left the bar together. The incident happened next.

We found fragments of the black suitcase that Ryuhei Sato brought into the country from the scene. We can basically confirm that the information provided by Amosta Brain is accurate. Of course, we also found a few guys who were hanging out in the Blind Pig Bar at the time, and they also confirmed that Sato Ryuhei briefly appeared in the bar, but soon left with others. "

"Why didn't the people at the Immigration Administration discover that this Japanese was bringing dangerous creatures into the country?"

The frowning Auror who had appeared at the scene of the fight between Amosta and the Poison Leopard asked angrily,

"This is undoubtedly a very serious work error."

"Oh, you can't actually say that, Ariel."

Next to the wizard who reported the report, another capable-looking witch said,

"Steven Adams of the Immigration Department is my classmate. He is a responsible and careful wizard, but when I found him to ask about the Japanese, he was confused and had no impression. I guess, Sato Long Ping may have used a confusion spell on him."

This behavior undoubtedly violated another taboo that must not be touched. The meeting room was filled with anger. But this time, Graves did not suppress the anger of his subordinates. He was thoughtful about something until everyone had almost vented their anger. , and asked again,

"How much information do we have about the two wizards who traded with Sato Ryuhei?"

The wizard who reported it touched his nose awkwardly.

"The few guys we caught who appeared in the Blind Pig Bar have no memory of the two wizards who dealt with Sato Ryuhei. Of course, if you are willing to issue a permission order, we can extract it from the memories of these people. The appearance of those two people.”

"Then let's do it."

Graves said calmly, and the wizard who reported it looked as if he had been granted amnesty. He did not expect that Mr. Graves would let him go so lightly.

"So, Ariel."

Graves turned to him;

"You were one of the first people to arrive at the scene where Amosta and his companions fought against the Poison Leopard, right? Tell us what you saw."

"Oh, that scene was absolutely wonderful!"

Errel stood up excitedly and talked about what he saw to his immediate superiors and colleagues who missed the big scene tonight. Under his vivid description, he listened to people's breathing become heavier and their eyes were excited, and they gradually revealed their faces. Incredible expression.

Of course, there are also some people whose expressions turned solemn after listening, such as Selena Hilde, who just defended her classmate who made a mistake at work.

"You mean-"

Selina interrupted Ariel's repeated description, frowning,

"Brain's companions basically didn't provide any effective help. He was dealing with an adult poisonous leopard by himself?"

"No wand used at all?"

Graves also frowned fiercely.

"Exactly. Oh, of course. After the poisonous leopard escaped from the Muggle train track, Amosta Brain seemed determined to deal with the threat quickly. He asked Ami from the immigration office Liana borrowed the wand. I heard that the little girl is ours now? "

Ariel asked, blinking.

Graves didn't answer, he still frowned.

He decided to take away Amosta Brain's wand precisely because a great magician was a huge destabilizing factor and could cause too much damage. However, he did not expect that even without the wand in hand, Amosta would Star Brain can actually show such strength.

Graves lowered his head and thought deeply, his face hidden in the shadows under the light, and no one noticed the sinister flash in his eyes.

This is really a difficult thing to do. Taking away Blaine's wand and letting people follow him is the limit of what can be done within a reasonable range. He can't order people to imprison Amosta Blaine.

"How is Amelia doing?"

After a long silence, Graves suddenly asked.

"She suffered some external injuries and accidentally inhaled a trace amount of the poisonous gas of the Poison Leopard. We have sent her to St. Josiah's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries. She will probably have to stay there for a few days."

Ariel shrugged and said,

"Poor newcomer."

Well, for the Ministry of Security, what needs to be done now is very clear.

Because of Amosta Brain's help, the poison leopard did not cause much damage. Some No-Majs witnessed Amosta Brain fighting the poison leopard on the train track and in Central Park. It has been properly dealt with, and the next goal of the Aurors is to find the two parties who traded the poisonous leopard.

"What do you think-"

When the action planning meeting was about to end, Selina suddenly said,

"What are the two guys who bought the poisonous leopard from Sato Ryuhei? Are they related to these dangerous creatures and the magical creatures that have disappeared in the nearest nature reserve?"

"Whatever the truth is."

Graves stood up and said expressionlessly,

"We all have to find the suspect first."

After saying this, he strode out of the conference room.

"Oh, this is not normal,"

Ariel looked at the back of his immediate boss leaving and said in slight shock,

"I thought Mr. Graves would give us a deadline to find the suspect."
