Chapter Ninety-Five: Newt's Suitcase
Similar to the Nine and Three-Quarters platform, the Seven and a Half platform is located behind the partition wall directly between platforms 7 and 8.
Newt led Shevin through the wall and into the wizard's platform.
"Your ticket." Newt took out a red-patterned train ticket from his pocket and handed it to Shevan, saying.
Xiwen glanced at the ticket curiously, and saw the words "London King's Cross - Paris Montparnasse Station" written on it, as well as the name of the train - "European Magic Star Train".
Newt was the first to get on the bus with the suitcase, and Shivin followed closely with the kitten in his arms, and walked into the car after letting the ticket inspector punch holes in his ticket.
Newt's ticket was a two-seater box, with him and Shewin alone.
The privacy of the box is very good, and when the door is closed, all outside sounds are blocked, and no one will disturb you after locking the door.
"The more I look at it, the more I feel like a couple's private room...... "Xiwen looked at the structure of this box, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
Newt apparently didn't have Shevan's brain circuits, though, and as soon as he entered the box, he couldn't wait to lock the door, and then placed his old-fashioned brown leather suitcase on the table in the box.
He snapped the lock of the suitcase and lifted its lid, and Sivan's mouth opened wide in surprise.
The inside of the box is not as simple as containing daily necessities such as clothes. When the lid is lifted, the chest becomes a deep opening, connected from the ground by a narrow wooden ladder.
Newt scrambled into the box with great skill, leaving Shivin to sit still.
"What are you doing in a daze, come down quickly!" Newt's voice came from far away from the box. "Remember to bring the kitten!"
"Oh oh good!" Xiwen hurriedly agreed. He then entered the box with the kitten in one hand and the ladder in the other.
"Close the lid for me, thanks!" Newt had already changed into a set of overalls and looked up.
Shewin closed the lid and climbed down the stairs.
It was a small workshop with a camp bed, a few tropical suits, and various tools hanging on the wall. In addition to this, there are many manuscripts and books.
"So we're going to observe the kittens here?" Xiwen asked, somewhat incomprehensible. This workshop feels a little smaller than a carriage!
"Not here." Newt smiled incomprehensibly as he gently pushed open the wooden door to the side of the workshop.
"It's here!"
With the opening of the wooden door, a new world is presented in front of Xiwen's eyes!
The first thing that catches your eye is a forest with countless tall trees, and some circular bird's nests made of bamboo hang from the trees, and a flock of strange birds frolicking in the woods.
If you look back through this forest, you can see a different scenery. Such as a large savannah, a tropical rainforest, a moonlit sandy land, and a small rocky mountain. Xiwen was dazzled and dizzy.
So is this really just the inside of a suitcase?
"Can you help me get that bottle of bait from the room?" Newt had gone out into the woods by this time, and shouted to Shevan.
"No problem!" Xiwen answered, and found a bottle full of small meat worms on the shelf in the workshop.
Although he was a little disgusted with the somewhat disgusting bugs, he picked up the bottle and handed it to Newt, who was standing under the tree.
Unconcerned, Newt reached into the bottle full of flesh worms, and then sprinkled the worms into the circular nest.
Only then did Xiwen discover that there were several magical creature with blue-purple scales in the bird's nest, with the body of a snake and the head of a bird. They lie cross-legged in their nests, their mouths open, waiting to be fed.
"This magical animal is called a bird snake, and it looks very small now, but they can actually fill the entire space they are in. At its peak, it can reach fifteen feet. Newt fed the baby birds and snakes like a wet nurse while explaining to Xiwen.
At that moment, a small green creature with two small brown eyes emerged from Newt's left breast pocket and jumped to the ground along the hem of his coat. From the outside, it looks like it is made of bark and small branches, and it is impossible to tell that it is a magical animal if you don't pay attention.
"This is Pickett, a tree guard. Sticky little guy. Newt smiled dotingly.
When the kitten saw the tree guard and the pot Pickett, he immediately jumped out of Xiwen's arms and landed firmly on the ground, staring at each other with wide eyes.
Pickett seemed to feel faceless to be stared at, and puffed out his mouth to blow at the kitten "poof".
Not to be outdone, the kitten stretched out its paws and tried to play with the tree-guarding pot, but was escaped.
A cat, a tree, a pot, you chased me and ran up a Dharma Protector Tree. After climbing the tree, the kitten stopped under the watchful eye of the tree-covered green treekeeper.
"They seem to get along well!" Newt had already fed a few birds and snakes by this time and screwed on the bottle caps. "Then let them play together for a while, we still have work to do!"
Newt led Shevan to the outskirts of the woods, where there was a suspended clod of earth with a tree planted and a glowing burrow underneath it. There are many glittering gold coins and metal-like things in the cave, and they emit the golden light.
At this moment, a small animal covered in black fluff and with a long snout sneaked up along Xiwen's clothes.
"Is this sniffing? It's so cute. Xiwen reached out and took the mischievous sniff in his arms.
Newt's expression was a little helpless, and he admonished Xiwen: "I advise you not to do that, it's not a worry-free guy." ”
As soon as Newt's words fell, the little guy quickly grabbed the pocket watch hanging around Xiwen's neck, and immediately wanted to stuff it into his stomach pocket.
"Don't do that, Teddy!" Newt hurriedly said, and then tried to reach out and grab Teddy back.
However, don't look at the size of Sniff, but the strength is not small, and he grabbed Xiwen's pocket watch and didn't let go.
The corners of Xiwen's mouth twitched as he looked at Newt, who was in a tug-of-war with Sniff, feeling that this magizoologist was really not easy......
Then, he silently pulled out a gold Galleon from his pocket, shook it at Sniffing Teddy, and then tossed it to him.
Teddy's attention was finally diverted, and he stretched out his little claws to grab the Galleon in the air.
Newt also took the opportunity to take the pocket watch out of Sniff's pocket and return it to Shevan, saying by the way: "Nice way!" But I generally don't recommend getting used to these naughty little guys, or you'll go bankrupt sooner or later. ”
"By the way, remember to hide your pocket watch next!"
