"Get out of here, you two guys. You're so lucky that someone bailed you out." A police officer knocked on the iron fence of the prison with his baton, and while letting Newt and Jacob out, he did not forget to warn: "Don't do anything after you get out."
There's a fight, you won't be so lucky next time someone comes to bail you out."
Newt and Jacob were suddenly surprised. They were thrown in for robbing a bank. Why did the charge now become fighting?
But obviously the two of them are not fools. If they can leave here instead of going to jail for robbing a bank for no reason, it is undoubtedly the best choice to just shut up and get out.
At this time, Newt and Jacob also noticed Chen Mo, who was standing behind the police officer and looking at them with a smile. He was the one who talked to them just now.
"Thank this kind gentleman. He is willing to pay for your bail. After you get out, you must thank this generous gentleman." The police officer who accepted Chen Mo's favor did not forget to explain to the two of them who got them out.
's: "Otherwise, based on your crime, I will definitely send you to jail."
"Thank you for your generosity, dear sir." Although Jacob looked very honest, he was not stupid. He recognized Chen Mo at a glance as the man who was in the bank vault before. Although he did not know Chen Mo
Why bail them out, but it's always right to express gratitude.
Even though Newt was still wary of the guy who had taken away his wand, he still bowed his head and expressed his gratitude.
A group of people left the police station prison and came outside. Xiao Yixi, who was waiting for them, saw Chen Mo leading them out and hurriedly greeted them.
"Cousin, can you leave?" Xiao Yixi obviously didn't like the atmosphere of the American police station in this era and felt that she couldn't stay any longer.
"We can leave here after they get their things back." While Chen Mo nodded, Newt also noticed Xiu Xiu who was being held in Xiao Yi Xi's arms at the moment, and what she was holding in her hand at the moment.
The baby bird and snake above is still hiding in its egg shell and has not come out. The baby bird and snake has just hatched.
Chen Mo noticed Newt's eyes and the way the two little animals suddenly struggled. He smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, these two little guys will be returned to you later, but we'd better leave here first.
Bar."
With that said, the police officer on the side went through the formalities for them, and after getting Newt and Jacob's suitcases, the group finally walked out of the police station.
The four of them got on the carriage, and Chen Mo said to Xiao Yixi: "Yixi, please return these two little animals to this gentleman. You can see that he looks anxious."
Hearing what Chen Mo said, Newt's face suddenly turned red. He was shy by nature and not good at dealing with people. He didn't know how to deal with such teasing, but he still looked nervously at being held by Yi Xi.
Xiu Xiu and the baby bird and snake, although he wanted to take them back, he still said kindly: "No... no, it's okay... If you like, you can hold them for a while, few people like them so much, people
People are generally afraid of magical creatures and view them as a hazard."
As a master who is close to magical creatures, Newt can tell that Xiao Yixi really likes these two magical creatures. Although he doesn't know how she makes these two little guys obedient, she can have one more person like her.
He was happy to have magical creatures instead of being afraid of them.
However, Xiao Yixi was a very obedient child, and despite her reluctance, she returned both Sniff and the baby Bird Snake to Newt.
As soon as Xiu Xiu, who had been frightened by Long Wei, left Xiao Yixi's arms, he immediately got into Newt's arms, looking like he was about to cry, grabbing his clothes and not letting go, like you.
Why did you come to pick me up? The aggrieved expression on his face made Newt feel very distressed.
But thinking of the trouble this naughty little guy had caused before, Newt still educated him: "You can't steal anything again, or you won't be so lucky next time!"
With that said, he opened his suitcase and stuffed Sniff and the baby Bird and Snake inside.
When Newt opened the box, the other animals in the box, which had been suffocated for a long time, were eager to come out, but under the intimidation of Yi Xi's lingering dragon power, no one dared to poke their heads in.
This surprised Newt. He couldn't help but look at Yi Xi a few more times, not sure what was going on with the little girl in front of him.
However, he didn't say much, and just politely expressed his gratitude to Yi Xi and Chen Mo.
At this time, Chen Mo also took out Newt's wand, played with it in his hand and commented: "It's a very delicate gadget. It uses the combination of the wand core and the magic wood to assist in casting spells and guide the release of magic power."
The effect is a good auxiliary prop for people who cannot effectively master their own talents.
Moreover, different effects can be achieved through the combination of different wand core materials and magic wood. It can be said to be a very sophisticated design for different types of users, but for powerful spellcasters and people who can effectively master their own talents
, this kind of thing is better than nothing.”
With that said, Chen Mo returned the wand to Newt.
Newt obviously didn't understand Chen Mo's words, so he couldn't help but ask: "Sir, you said that the wand is only an auxiliary prop for people who cannot effectively master their own talents. What do you mean? For wizards,
You know, don’t you have to have a wand to cast spells?”
"That's because you haven't received truly effective training, or in other words, you have embarked on the wrong path of relying on props to cast spells from the beginning." Chen Mo laughed, and deliberately said something that somewhat distorted the facts: "The wizard's
The ability to cast spells comes from your bloodline, so what you should really do is to dig deep into the potential of your bloodline and dig out the power hidden in yourself, instead of holding such a small branch and relying on it to bring out the original power in your body.
The huge power is only released in a small amount."
At this point, Chen Mo stared at the box Newt put on his lap and said meaningfully to him: "I think you should know what is going on with the Obscurus? There is something hidden in the body of a little wizard.
With such huge power, how can an adult wizard be so amazing?"
Chen Mo’s words were purely intentional to deceive Newt. Wizards in this world use wands to concentrate the released magic to obtain better spellcasting effects. As a tradition, it can be traced back to the ancient Egyptian and Roman times.
It's just that the wizards at that time used thicker staffs.
For wizards in this world, there is no saying that they cannot master their own talents. It is inevitable that they need a wand to cast spells. In other words, for the vast majority of ordinary wizards, they all need such a magic prop to make them almost invincible.
The magic released sequentially is concentrated and released in a certain form, and this is also the origin of a wide variety of spells and spells.
Only a very small number of wizards with outstanding talents and profound magic power can cast spells without their wands, but even then they can only release a limited number of wandless magics. There is no in-depth research on this aspect.
.
But since Chen Mo dares to deceive like this, it's obvious that he can really do it.
For a master of necromancy who is proficient in human body modification and soul control, and who also has the power to create the world, purifying the blood of a species with magical blood and bursting out with more powerful power is simply easier than eating and drinking.
What's more, just letting the wizards in this world get rid of their wands to cast spells doesn't even require any changes, just teaching them a little trick.
For example, now, Chen Mo taught Newt, who didn't believe what he said, a little trick, and successfully made Newt conjure a ball of light with his bare hands.
"Although the light spell is only a very low-level magic, you are also the first person to cast this spell without a wand." Seeing Newt's shocked expression after successfully casting the spell, Chen Mo smiled wickedly.
stand up.
But after laughing, he also turned his gaze to Jacob who was almost stunned.
"Sorry, Mr. Jacob, I have been neglecting you just now." Chen Mo greeted Jacob and explained to him at the same time: "It's not that we don't want to talk to you or that wizards discriminate against non-magic people, it's just that
Since a long time ago, the wizarding world has signed a treaty called the Law of Secrecy, which prohibits revealing the existence of the wizarding world to non-magical people. If a wizard violates this law, he will be sentenced to a felony or even the death penalty.
So we must cleanse your memory to prevent the entire Muggle world from knowing about the existence of wizards just because you remember seeing wizards."
Hearing what Chen Mo said, Jacob didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He just asked with interest: "So are there really wizards in this world? Do you really know magic? In fact, you have always lived
With us?"
"Yes, in ancient times, non-magical people and wizards once lived together. Most of the legends and records about wizards that are circulated now were handed down from that time, but later, after the wizards signed the secrecy law, they
The connection between magical people and wizards is severed." This question should have been answered by Newt, but obviously his character is not suitable as a commentator.
Jacob, who suddenly knew this level of mystery, became completely excited. Like a child who received a favorite new toy at Christmas, he asked excitedly: "Then how do you avoid other people? You can't.
Maybe you are always chanting spells at us? How can I become a wizard? Can I also learn magic?"
"About this issue..." Chen Mo touched his chin, thought for a while and said: "It is very troublesome to explain. Since I have to clear your memory later even if I explain it, I will
To make a long story short, wizards usually live in places far away from non-magical people. The places where they live will cast spells to expel non-magical people to prevent you from entering by mistake.
As for wanting to become a wizard, you need to have wizard blood. Although it is not impossible for non-magical people to give birth to wizards, if the children's magical talents are not guided, they will become terrible disasters.
So adults who don't know magic are just non-magical people, which is what wizards call Muggles. Of course, you here in the United States call them No-Majs.
Okay, Mr. Jacobs, do you have any other questions? If not, I will erase your memory and let you go back to live your own life.
But don’t worry, as compensation I will give you a sum of money so that you can open the bakery you want to open and start realizing your dream."
As he spoke, Chen Mo took out a wallet from his body and took out a large pile of green US dollars.
However, Jacob did not accept the money immediately, but hesitated and asked: "Can I follow you first? I want to see more about magic."
As he spoke, he seemed to be afraid that Chen Mo would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just want to know more about the wizards. After all, you have been living with us but have not been discovered. This is really...
It’s amazing! If I’m destined to have my memory wiped out, why can’t I learn more about it?”
Facing Jacob's request, Chen Mo hesitated for a moment, but at this time, Xiao Yixi suddenly pleaded on Jacob's behalf: "Cousin, why don't you just agree to him, there won't be anything anyway.
What trouble."
Listening to Yi Xi's plea, Chen Mo glanced at Jacob's expectant look, then looked at Newt beside him, and suddenly asked: "Mr. Newt, what do you think?"
Newt didn't expect that Chen Mo would suddenly ask him. Newt, who was comforting the animals in the suitcase, was suddenly asked by Chen Mo. He was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He glanced at Jacob's expectant look and hesitated for a moment.
Said: "If his memory can be dealt with afterwards, I think it should be fine."
For wizards, a single forgetfulness can erase a person's memory. With such a convenient technology, they really don't worry too much about leaking secrets.
In fact, the vast majority of ordinary wizards do not have a strong sense of confidentiality. They just habitually follow a lifestyle away from Muggles.
In fact, no matter in terms of dress or behavior, they have too many flaws in the eyes of ordinary people. If it were not for the magic spells with various effects, the wizards would have been unable to conceal their existence.
However, with the development of science and technology, Muggles are expanding at an unprecedented speed, the living space of wizards is being squeezed into less and less, and the contradiction between wizards and Muggles is becoming more and more acute.
.
It's just a pity that there are still very few wizards who realize this. The pure-blood families that dominate the magic world still maintain their senseless arrogance, but they don't realize that the world has already changed.
