Chapter 19 019 missed one
Macy's, Fifth Avenue, New York.
It's an upscale department store, and the transparent glass windows are filled with brightly dressed plastic clothing models.
Newt, Tina, Hu Qing, and Queenie crept over and looked in the window, where they saw a handbag automatically slide down the model's arm and drift forward together.
"Right here!" Newt whispered.
The Invisible Beast is so amazing that it can't be seen with the naked eye, and can only rely on the drifting pouch to determine its location, and as Newt said, it's hard to catch it.
"He went in." Hu Qing reminded in a whisper.
"Keep up with it."
Christmas is coming, in order to welcome the upcoming grand festival, the department store has been decorated in advance, and a Christmas tree is set up at the door, as if it is hung with countless little stars, twinkle and shiny, very beautiful. Hanging ribbons of holly and mistletoe on the aisle walls of the shops connect shelves filled with expensive jewelry, shoes, hats, perfumes.
The shop was closed, the lights were all out, it was dark, and no sound could be heard. A handbag floated down the central aisle, and there was a faint gurgling gasp.
Suddenly, the invisible beast seemed to hear something, revealing its body and tilting its head to look back.
The four of them hurriedly hid behind a large pile of plastic Christmas decorations, and Queenie covered her mouth, not daring to breathe.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hu Qing saw the appearance of the invisible beast clearly. It resembles a gorilla, with long silver-white hair, bright brown eyes that are dripping, and no abnormalities are noticed, and a wrinkled face shows a puzzled look, clumsily climbing onto the display shelf to take a box of candy.
Newt whispered to Hu Qing and Queenie, "The Invisible Beast can see into high probability events, so he can foresee the most likely near future, and he must act by surprise." Also, the invisible beast is basically peaceful, but if it is provoked, it will also bite, so be careful. ”
Hu Qing and Queenie nodded, and walked out of the hiding place lightly. Hu Qing suddenly hugged Queenie, and the two kissed impatiently, moving towards the invisible beast while kissing.
"He must have done it on purpose." Tina gritted her teeth.
Newt also couldn't laugh or cry, "Mr. Hu does things...... It was indeed unexpected. ”
The invisible beast spotted the two uninvited guests, and looked at the uncontrollable couple suspiciously, a dazzling blue light flashed in his eyes.
Oh no, it had a premonition of something!
Hu Qing noticed the change in the invisible beast, and sighed in his heart, if he let the invisible beast go, it would be difficult to find it again.
Grab the bull by the horns.
Like a poisonous snake swept out, a small golden Taiji diagram hit the invisible beast, and the invisible beast probably didn't expect Hu Qing to move so fast, the invisible took a beat slower, and his body staggered back.
"Xuantian Finger!"
Hu Qing's right index finger and middle finger were covered with a faint layer of gold, and the two fingers were put together like a golden sword, gently tapping on the invisible beast's body, the invisible beast stiffened slightly, and its qi and blood briefly coagulated, and it lost its ability to move.
"Newt, hurry up!" Hu Qing shouted.
Newt ran over with a surprised face, too fast! He hasn't played a role yet! Open the box and lead the Invisible Beast inside.
"How did you do that?" Tina looked amazed.
"This is Chinese Taoism!" Hu Qing said with a little pride.
Tina came and said: "Taking advantage of Queenie regardless of the occasion is also Chinese Taoism?" ”
Hu Qing laughed, hugged Queenie and kissed again, but Queenie responded enthusiastically, Tina was angry and embarrassed, but helpless.
After a while, Newt came out of the box and said in a relaxed tone: "All my animals have been found, thank you, Mr. Hu, I didn't expect it to go so well." ”
"Found them all?" Tina asked uncomfortably.
"All found ......"
There was a small growl from upstairs, and Newt hurriedly changed his words, "Perhaps, probably, I missed one." That voice may be the reason the Invisible Beast is here. ”
"Mr. Scamander!" Tina shouted dissatisfied.
Newt whispered, "I'm sorry, I don't know what it is." ”
Hu Qing, Queenie, and Tina showed speechless expressions, and Hu Qing said, "No matter what it is, it's coming, go up and have a look." ”
This time, Newt, Tina, and Queenie were all more solemn and drew their wands one after another, and Hu Qing, in order not to look maverick, also pretended to pull out his own wands - fourteen inches, poplar wood, and a dementor bone wand core.
"Wand?!" Tina exclaimed, and Queenie and Newt made expressions of surprise at the discovery of the New World.
"It's not a wand, it's a stick......"
Newt said, "Look at the color of aspen wood......
"Newt, you've changed, you didn't like to talk before."
Queenie smiled charmingly. Tina glared at Hu Qing fiercely, saying that "Chinese wizards don't use magic wands" is all a lie!
"Remember to register with the Magical Congress."
……
The four of them cautiously ascended a side staircase.
Above is a large attic warehouse, dimly lit, with floor-to-ceiling shelves crammed with boxes of porcelain: cutlery, tea sets and all sorts of kitchen utensils.
The four of them walked in the attic in a piece of moonlight, and suddenly, Hu Qing felt the mysterious wand in his hand tremble slightly, and was secretly surprised, this wand is very unusual, is it a warning? Or does it mean something else?
Hu Qing couldn't figure it out, his eyes inadvertently swept over the ground, the moonlight falling from the roof was very regular, it looked like a diamond, and there was an arc-shaped shadow on the edge, what was blocking part of the moonlight, what surprised Hu Qing the most was that the shadow would move!
There's something on the roof!
Hu Qing tilted his head slowly, slightly, and the scales of a huge creature appeared in the bright light.
"Newt ......," he whispered.
"Huh?" Newt looked at it suspiciously, Hu Qing pointed his finger upward, and the three of them slowly moved their eyes up.
"Oh my God!"
"What's that?"
"Bird Snake ......"
A bird snake wrapped around the rafters of the roof, staring silently at the four of them, it was a blue, bird-like creature, exactly like the one Hu Qing had seen in Newt's box, but this bird snake was countless times larger, coiled in circles, almost filling the entire attic.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Newt gently walked under the face of the bird snake, knelt on the ground, opened the box, and raised a hand to say hello, "Little one, mommy is here, come in." ”
Newt tries to appease the bird snake, but just then, Queenie accidentally steps on a piece of glass that cracks with a click.
The bird snake heard the noise, its mouth screamed, its huge body began to twitch, and suddenly swooped down, Newt jumped on its back, Hu Qing pounced on Queenie, and Tina was knocked away by the bird snake.
"Quiet, quiet!" Newt whispered, failing to silence the bird and snake, and shouted to the trio, "Insects, need an insect, and a teapot." ”
Hu Qing, Queenie, and Tina were embarrassed to search for insects, and the bird and snake swooped down again, and its wings almost hit Hu Qing, the shelves were torn apart, and the snake-like body swelled to fill the attic.
"Honey, cockroaches!" Queenie pointed to him.
Hu Qing was blocked by the body of the bird and snake, his back was tightly pressed against the wall, and he couldn't move at all, seeing that the cockroach was about to get into the middle of the shelf, he roared: "Golden finger ......"
