"Let me see the little one."

The middle-aged man said with interest.

Tina breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that someone was finally able to listen to her.

Newt wanted to say something—he looked very nervous, and that emotion seemed to be brought about by the unfound, too, for Newt had more than one sniffer in his box.

Tina glanced dramatically at Newt, quickly picked up the box and placed it on a large table, then slammed the lid open, then stepped back slightly.

However, when she saw what was inside, Tina's original smug look was replaced by a look of horror.

I saw that in the suitcase, which was not brand new, it was full of slightly shabby clothes, let alone sniffing, there was not a shadow of a living thing.

The middle-aged man's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he rummaged through the box, looking for any dark layers or mechanism buttons, but found nothing. It looked like a normal Muggle chest.

The middle-aged man's face was confused, and then he smiled slightly disdainfully.

It seems that the stupid woman in front of her seems to have made another mistake

"Ms. Goldstein, don't arrest people in the future, people are so scared of you that they can't speak, you better stop making trouble and go home and stay."

The middle-aged man looked at the two men contemptuously.

"Mr. Aberthia, the Chairman called you over ......"

That's when it happened.

A crisp female voice suddenly sounded from the upper floor of the attic.

"Ah, it's Ms. Mingya, did the chairman say what happened?"

The middle-aged man was slightly stunned, and his face was instantly transformed by an extremely elegant gentleman's color.

"It seems that our Aurors have discovered an extremely strong impulse of magical energy on East Main Street in New York City, and the Chairman suspects that this is likely to be a sign of Grindelwald's return!"

"That's right, then I'll go!"

The middle-aged man said, bending slightly to show respect, and then walked directly to the elevator on the side.

With a piercing clang, the figure of the middle-aged man instantly disappeared in front of Newt and Tina's eyes.

"Did you hear the news, it's the Dark Lord, if we can catch him, I will definitely be able to reinstate him!"

Tina's face suddenly became a little excited.

"Are you crazy? It's up to you to catch the Dark Lord Grindelwald? You go, I'm not going, I'll go to my partner later!! ”

Newt hurriedly waved his hand.

Are you kidding? Just by relying on them, they still want to capture the Dark Lord Grindelwald, it's a long life!

"That's not going to work, we've got to go together!!"

Tina had a wicked smile on her face and grabbed Newt by the shoulder.

"Shapeshifting !!"

The next moment.

With a crisp sound like a yellow oriole.

The figures of the two disappeared directly in place.

……

East Main Street, New York City.

This is the most marginal point in all of New York City, close to the Hudson River, the most famous part of New York City.

At this time, the moon is setting in the western mountains, and the sky is already dark.

Along the river, the waves on the black rocks rolled up layers of glassy spray and sprinkled on them. The ground was bare, except for rocks and the sea was a cliff, and there seemed to be nothing, not even a single tree, it was a barren place. Only the moonlight reflected on the sea surface pierced through the gray mist and caused heavy memory-like ripples, bright and beautiful, but it brought a chill to people.

Darkness shrouded the desolate expanse of the land, and the mist rose one after another, all of which seemed to have an evil aura that devoured everything around them. The bleak moonlight sprinkled the land through the thick fog, and the desolate grass blended with the chaos around it under the cold illumination of the moon, giving birth to countless mysterious shadows, like the flames of the undead in the forest.

The closest point to the Hudson River is a huge castle.

Alone in the vague shadows of the dark world, it was cleverly hidden, and as far as the eye could see, it was not far away from the bulging mountain bags that protruded from the thick fog. But its deep black outline was faintly recognizable, and its hideous spired towers shaped like demon's fingers stretched out from the thick clouds.

In the night with no fingers in sight, five men in dark gray suits lined up one after another, each holding a slender wand that shone white to dispel the darkness, and walked forward cautiously with slow steps.

The mist came to a halt around them, but it continued to follow them, like a cruel hunter from whom he could not escape.

"Damn it!" One of the men grumbled, breaking the terrible silence. Strangely, the man's voice was not loud, but there was a faint echo as if he was in a large valley.

As soon as the words fell, they could feel the cold wind blowing more intensely, and what was even more terrifying was that the wind seemed to carry a heavy howl, and they could constantly hear the rustle of the leaves in the wind, like a chattering whisper----- but it brought great unease.

The five men looked at each other.

"This place has been cursed with evil," said another man, his left hand trembling beneath him and his breathing becoming rapid.

The others, though not squeaked, were apparently just as bad, unconsciously slowing down.

Although they were all very brave Aurors, the overwhelming atmosphere around them was gradually crushing them.

"Maybe we're all going to die here." One of the Aurors grunted mockingly, but no one heard.

"Be careful, I don't want to alarm anything until I find him." The Auror in the middle, apparently in the lead, made a bottom-down voice from the serious face under the top hat. He was taller and more experienced than the others. He kept his cool at all times.

He nodded slightly, and his clenched staff flicked forward, motioning for the others to move on.

The face of the castle appeared in the mist, appearing in their field of vision. At the same time, a cobblestone floor appeared beneath their feet, like a square.

The leader of the Auror swung his staff forward. A pure white light began to shine, spreading rapidly ahead, dispelling a fog in front of the castle. The other four also shone at the surrounding mist.

The square in front of the castle is illuminated, the fog is blocked out of the invisible walls, and the entire exterior of the castle is clearly visible.

The crumpled and rugged walls and towers stand tall on a rocky plateau on the mountainside. Windows appeared in the walls and towers, and they looked into the void like dark holes, and the top of the tower hovered slowly upward, first to one side, and then to the other, the ghostly top of the tower piercing into the night. There was no light, not even the slightest movement, and there seemed to be only endless darkness in the castle.

"We're here." The Auror at the head looked at the Aurors on the left and right, and said quite seriously, "He may be here, remember that he must not act alone." ”
