Chapter 88
“Oh, my goodness!” Dumbledore turned around, beaming with joy.
Jon saw a somewhat raunchy old man and two old ladies, and they were walking in their direction with an eleven or twelve-year-old red-haired boy.
Dumbledore and the old man gave each other a hug: “Newt, my old friend, it’s been a long time. I think you also came to pay homage to Nicholas?”
“Yes, we are here from Dorset.” Newt Scamander nodded: “When we were in Paris, Mr. Flamel really helped me and my brother a lot. .”
“Let me introduce it!” Newt pointed to a few people around him. “This is my wife Polontina Scamander, and this is her sister Queenie Kowalski. , Yes, and my youngest grandson Rov Scamander.”

The appearance of the two old ladies is very similar, one of them looks calmer and calmer, the other is more gentle and kind.
Ye Ting recognized them. They were the characters that appeared in the two movies in the previous life. Newt Scamander is the actor of the movie. He is a magical biologist. He is the author of “Where are the Fantastic Beasts”. The book is indeed a household name in the wizarding world. In addition, in the movie, he twice prevented the conspiracy of the first generation of Dark Lord, Dumbledore’s true friend, Gellert Grindelwald.
The two old ladies were not simple characters when they were young, especially Newt’s wife Tina Scamander. She used to be an American Auror and participated in the confrontation with Grindelwald. .
As for this Rolf Scamander, he became a magical biologist just like his grandfather in the original book and married Luna Lovegood.
“At Tina’s request, Rove was enrolled in the Ilvermony School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the United States. He was assigned to Thunderbird Academy, just like his grandmother, so I am sorry that he was not sent to Hogwarts. Newt pointed to Rove Scamander and introduced to Dumbledore.
“Ah, he is very similar to you back then. If he were at Hogwarts, he might be assigned to Hufflepuff…this is Ting Ye,” Dumbledore patted Ye Ting on the shoulder: “I am the most A proud student, Nicol liked him very much when he was alive.”
“Your student? Oh, I also heard his name. I heard that he became the first magic creature Animagus. Hogwarts always has such a genius.” Newt seemed to have suddenly Intrigued: “Speaking of Hogwarts, I was studying there…Unfortunately, when I was in the fifth grade, I was expelled.”
“Phineas Black later thought that this was one of the biggest mistakes he made in his life!” Dumbledore laughed.
Newt also smiled: “I also remember the nasty face of Headmaster Black.”
Dumbledore just started talking to him.
…
A week after Nicol LeMay’s funeral, the Ministry of Magic awarded Ye Ting a first class Merlin Medal.
Fudge personally awarded the medal to Ye Ting. He looked very happy and said many words of encouragement—Ye Ting felt a bit disgusted by the posture of wooing Ye Ting—but he knew that Fudge’s good days hadn’t been long.
Sure enough, the Ministry of Magic soon broke the big news: the notorious murderer, Sirius Black, escaped from Azkaban. This was the first escape from Azkaban in so many years.
He was in jail for killing a wizard and twelve Muggles, and slaughtered thirteen lives with one spell.
At that time, Voldemort was raging everywhere. Because of his fear of prophecy, Voldemort wanted to kill the new born in the prophecy, Harry Potter, who might defeat him in the future, but he and his mother were protected by the Red Faithful Curse. Voldemort could do nothing about them.
At the time, everyone thought that the secret of the Curse of Red Loyalty was Sirius Black, who was also Harry’s father and a good friend of James Potter, but the final outcome is well known-the Curse of Red Loyalty was leaked, Harry’s mother Lily Po He died to save his child, and Voldemort was killed by the curse that bounced back while trying to kill Harry.
As a result, Sirius was considered to have taken refuge in Voldemort, and, together with the charge of murder, was imprisoned in Azkaban without trial.
However, Azkaban, who now claims to be absolutely unable to escape, was actually escaped by such a murderous madman. For a while, everyone in the wizarding world was in danger, and the Ministry of Magic’s response to this incident was extremely strong, not only did Cornelius Fudge. The Muggle prime minister, Major, was notified of this, and the dementors were released to hunt Black all over the UK, causing panic for a while.
When Ye Ting came to Diagon Alley to buy school supplies for the new semester, he saw that Black’s wanted lists were plastered everywhere.
“The people from the Ministry of Magic are really sensitive enough.” Ye Ting curled his lips speechlessly, and walked into Lihen Bookstore.
Although most of the Hogwarts textbooks for the new semester, Ye Ting bought in advance and studied in advance, there is still one exception. It is a strange book called “The Monster Book of Monsters”, which is introduced in the book. Some dangerous magical creatures.
This kind of book has a wonderful feature, that is, it is quite offensive. Not only will they attack the users who are trying to open it, but they will also attack each other.
When Ye Ting first stepped into Lihen Bookstore, he saw this funny scene.
A large iron cage appeared in the place where the bookshelves were originally bookshelves, which contained about a hundred books of “Monsters’ Monsters”. These books were locked together, furiously competing, biting and fighting militantly, with broken pages flying everywhere.
Ye Ting noticed that two of the “Book of Monsters” grabbed the third and tried to tear it apart. The manager of the bookstore hurriedly tried to separate them, but his hand was bitten instead. Several times.
He stepped forward and offered to buy a monster book. The manager looked helpless and let Ye Ting choose it himself.
Ye Ting picked up a monster book, flipped through it and went to checkout. During this period, the monster book looked obedient.
The manager was very surprised when he saw this, because Ye Ting seemed to have made the Monster Book obedient without doing anything special. He stepped forward to ask Ye Ting’s skills.
“That said, of course, it was to convince them with strength.” Ye Ting picked up another monster book as a demonstration. When he wanted to open it, the monster book struggled violently, and Ye Ting hit it with a punch. On the cover of the book, knock it out, then open it smoothly.
Such violent methods made the manager stare blankly, stupidly trying to imitate.
“Don’t be misled by his bad methods, it will hurt this book.”
Suddenly, a familiar and pleasant female voice sounded behind Ye Ting. He looked back and saw that Senior Sister Penello walked into the bookstore with graceful steps. She took a monster book from the manager and followed it with her fingers. Swipe down with the spine of the book, and the book will automatically unfold.
“Oh, thank goodness, I finally know how to deal with them,” the manager complained without tears, “I will never store these books again, never! It’s so tumultuous! We have moved forward two hundred books. “The Invisible Books of Invisibility”, I thought there was nothing worse than them. Those books are so expensive, and we never saw them.”
The two greeted each other, then checked out together and left. When they walked out of Lihen Bookstore, they laughed at the same time.
“I want to know why Hogwarts should use this book as a textbook this semester.” Penello finally stopped his smile and vomited casually, “I dare say that this is definitely a disaster!”
“Didn’t you hear? Professor Silvanus Kettleborn retired. His successor is our hunting guard Hagrid. I think it’s quite in line with his character to use this book as a textbook. Ye Ting said lightly, “Maybe he just thinks these books are’interesting’.”

After Ye Ting and Penello strolled together for a while, she left alone. She made an appointment with her friend and went to another second-hand bookstore together to buy notes about the contents of previous N.E.W.T exams.
Ye Ting walked alone to a magical animal store called “Fantastic Zoo”. He went there to buy one of Feiju’s favorite cat food-although she likes to eat the same food as Ye Ting, But for her who has not yet transformed, it is healthier to eat cat food.
In the store, Ye Ting accidentally ran into Hermione, she was buying an owl, and her vacation experience in France made her visibly dark.
When she saw Ye Ting by accident, Hermione was obviously a little surprised, and she greeted Ye Ting happily.
“I heard that you got a new Merlin Medal, didn’t you?” She asked curiously when choosing the owl.
“Yes,” Ye Ting nodded lightly, “It’s just a medal.”
“It’s just a medal?” Hermione was a little dissatisfied with his attitude. “That is the greatest honor given by the Ministry of Magic to those who have contributed to the wizarding world. If I had such a medal, I would definitely hang it. On the fireplace in my house.”
“Oh, is it? I think that at your level, you will definitely get that stuff in the future.” Ye Ting said casually, “but the problem is not here. In fact, most of the people in the Ministry of Magic are idiots. I heard There are people in there who can’t even use the iron armor curse. What is the significance of the medals awarded by such a group of people? Sirius Black’s grandfather also has a first-class medal. Do you know how it came from?”
“Sirius? That’s the murderer who escaped from Azkaban? His grandfather actually got the first class medal, which shows that he has made great contributions to the wizarding world, right?” Hermione asked somewhat uncertainly. road.
“In fact, he did make a great contribution to the’Ministry of Magic’,” Ye Ting said sarcastically. “He donated a large sum of Jin Jialong to the Ministry of Magic, so he got the medal. In fact, even magic The Minister of the Ministry Cornelius Fudge also received a first-class medal, but everyone knows that he himself is timid and incompetent. He can become Minister of Magic purely because he has a good relationship with Dumbledore.”
The facts revealed by Ye Ting shocked Hermione. She had always hoped to work in the Ministry of Magic after graduation.
So, in the next chat, she kept silent about the medal and turned the topic to Animagus.
“The Daily Prophet says that you are the Animagus, the first magical creature in history. This is a great breakthrough in the history of Transfiguration.” Hermione looked at him with an admiring look, “You Can you teach me Animagus? I think my level of polymorphism is enough to learn this.”
“Of course you can, but I suggest that you don’t do this for now,” Ye Ting sincerely suggested, “Because now, I am studying how to make people stably become the dragon Animagus. After I succeed, you You can transform into a giant dragon.”
While talking, Ye Ting spent dozens of gallons to buy a large package of cat food with fire crab meat. He took it apart on the spot and fed some Feiju. Feiju ate it gracefully, showing pleasure. expression.
Suddenly, a huge ginger-colored thing jumped from the top cage and landed at Ye Ting’s feet. It wanted to move forward to taste it, but after seeing the Feiju, it shrank behind Hermione’s feet in fear.
