HP: I just wanted to drop out of school, but I saved the world
Chapter 87 Scamander
But the plan Dumbledore had made on the parchment was already in a mess.
First, the Flamels wrote, apologetically saying that they had left their home and gone to the French Ministry of Magic to report their wizarding version of the game console and obtain a license.
Later, several of his old friends and former students sent messages saying that some had family emergencies, some had work situations, or some had health problems, and therefore could not receive the two of them as agreed.
Even the Weasley family said they would go to Egypt for their summer vacation because Mr. Weasley won the annual Daily Prophet Gold Galleon Prize and decided to take his whole family on a hearty cross-border trip.
Dumbledore felt very uncomfortable with all his plans being disrupted, and he had to cross out some names from the parchment.
"Okay." He sighed and said to Jian Yu, "Obviously we don't have many options. Why don't we go visit the Scamanders first? They just came back from Romania studying fire dragons... I guess they will have plenty of time to sort out the information."
......
Dorset.
They were received by Newt Scamander and his wife Tina Goldstein, along with three Kneazles.
This famous magizoologist now has completely white hair and beard. He wears a gray-black woolen coat and has his head slightly tilted to the right. He doesn't talk much, but one can feel his friendliness from his words and actions.
"Hobie, Millie and Moller, our Kneazles, have been meowing and running back and forth since morning, so we guessed you were coming."
He and his wife each held a catkin. Tina put the catkin named Millie in Jian Yu's arms and picked up the other one herself.
"Millie doesn't bite people. She has a very rare docile and friendly personality." Tina's personality was obviously much more straightforward. "Come in quickly. The weather is getting hotter."
Their hut is more of a studio than a residence. As soon as Jian Yu entered the door, a large workbench appeared in front of him. Next to it was a writing desk covered with animal research and observation records.
In the corner of the wall stood a tall wooden shelf filled with all kinds of bottles and jars and products made from magical animals, silver eggshells of bird snakes, feathers of orb-eating birds, coins engraved with Niffler patterns... and on the ground were a lot of animal rations, as well as hay, wood, and stone nests.
There was a small table in the middle of the room, probably where the couple usually had their meals, with a small crystal bowl on it.
Newt pushed the small bowl in front of Jian Yu, tilted his head slightly, and said:
"You might need this... a growth on the back of a Mothrat."
Jian Yu looked into the bowl and saw a small, anemone-shaped tumor that looked like it had been pickled.
It looks like a very strange shape and color and is difficult to eat.
"Um... thank you?" She was a little embarrassed, because this thing looked even more leaky than Snape's potion.
Tina saw her dilemma and advised:
"We heard from Albus that you were cursed by a criminal in the Inquisition."
"This has only happened a few times in a century. I guess it's just bad luck."
"The growth of Murtra Rat will increase your resistance to curses and bad luck."
Jian Yu understood, isn't this equivalent to the Lucky Spirit Potion?
She no longer hesitated and swallowed it in one gulp with her eyes closed, without even chewing it.
The soft piece of meat slid down her throat and into her stomach, but she didn't feel any changes in her body.
The Scamanders and Dumbledore all looked at her expectantly, but when they noticed that there was no change in her physical condition, their eyes turned into disappointment and they sighed in unison.
“It shouldn’t be… How strange…” Newt shook his head, confused, “Even if it’s a very dangerous curse, the growth of the Motla rats can be reduced a bit.”
He opened his notebook and wrote down this doubt.
The couple flipped through their notes, looking at the cursed abilities of the magical animals themselves, as well as the curses used by the dark wizards they had encountered before, but they had never encountered a situation like this.
"The curse should work on both the soul and the body. Maybe he didn't succeed in the curse?" Tina asked.
"Her condition is very strange," Dumbledore replied. "The curse does not seem to have affected her soul, but her body has shown an increase in magical power, which means that the curse has at least affected her body."
"And this isn't an immediate curse. I'm not sure if it will be delayed."
The couple could do nothing to help, and Dumbledore sighed.
"Resisting curses, you are the expert in this area, Albus." Newt closed his notes, "I have some rare herbs here, perhaps you can try the potion on her?"
Dumbledore readily agreed and said he had already sent a letter to Snape.
Newt began to rummage through the boxes, placing unicorn hair and horn, thunderbird feathers, some dragon blood, a salamander tail... on the small table.
"The fire ash snake eggs are gone." He spoke to the shelf in the corner, "There are some other materials that are not easy to preserve... It will take a month to get them."
"Thank you very much." Dumbledore thanked him, "You have been a great help to me, Newt."
He then turned to introduce Jian Yu to the couple:
"Jade Jane, this child has some talent in studying magical animals. She has tamed a three-headed dog, subdued a troll, touched a unicorn, and even my phoenix."
This immediately caught Newt's attention.
He returned to the table with an agility that was not befitting of a man of his age, and spread out the research record:
"I don't see much information on three-headed dogs in my research... How did you do it?"
Jian Yu recalled Lu Wei's performance:
"I think it likes cooked food, especially steak, lamb chops and honey cakes."
Newt looked very happy, his curly hair swaying slightly, as if he had found a new research path:
"Delicious food...delicious food...why didn't I think of that!"
"Maybe it's not just the three-headed dog, but other animals as well..."
He quickly wrote down his thoughts, his brown-orange eyes seemed to be shining:
"What about the trolls? They are not very intelligent... How do you communicate with them?"
Jian Yu felt distressed when she thought of the wasted perfume:
"They love perfume and love to use it on themselves."
The magizoologist looks like he wants to fly to Scandinavia right away to have some conversation with the trolls:
"Yes, smell is something that animals value very much... Many animals use smell to distinguish their companions and find mates..."
He put down the shorthand pen and extended a cordial invitation:
"I have some magical animals here. If... you are interested in studying them, you can spend your summer vacation here."
Of course Jian Yu is willing!
She didn't want to go around visiting the countless remaining wizards!
She agreed almost on the spot.
Dumbledore pulled out several more strands of his beard.
But he thought about it and thought that this was a good opportunity to cultivate children's interest in magical animals.
Plus, this was his favorite student.
I had no choice but to agree.
