Chapter 25 Furong: Luo Fu was learning foreign languages with me in the middle of the night
In the vast ocean, the probability of a ship being burned down by fire may be lower than the probability of hitting an iceberg and sinking.
Therefore, although the Mayflower was on fire and the situation was strikingly similar to the situation in the dream, Carlos was not panicked.
As an old captain with thirty years of driving experience, he directly let this magic ship... sink to the bottom of the sea.
The entire fire extinguishing process took less than five minutes, it was simple and crude!
After extinguishing the fire, Carlos immediately rushed to the scene of the eucalyptus discovery. When he arrived, the place was already three floors inside and three floors outside, crowded with wizards watching the excitement.
Carlos squeezed through the crowd and found Skander beside a tent with many big holes and blackened by fireworks.
The owner of the mysterious circus was covered in dust and his hair was burnt brown. He looked very miserable.
"Mr. Skander, what's going on?" Carlos asked:
"Someone saw a fire dragon rushing out of your room? Can you explain it?"
"This matter has nothing to do with me!" Skander patted the dust on his body, suppressed his anger, stood up and said:
"Someone just sneaked into my room, stole the magical creatures I used for performances, and released a fire dragon to burn down my tent!"
After hearing Skander's words, everyone started whispering.
"Then do you know who did it?"
"The grandson of Newt Scamander!" Skander pursed his lips angrily and said, "A blond boy."
Hearing this name, the noise became even louder, and Carlos looked stunned, his eyes filled with horror.
"You want to say Mr. Rolf Scamander?" Carlos frowned and said, "Are you sure it's him and you read it correctly?
I mean...this is a very serious accusation, do you have any evidence?"
"Of course, it's clear when you check his box!" Skander gritted his teeth and said, "He took away a lot of my magical creatures. You can tell at a glance!
"
Skander's words sounded outrageous, like he was making up a story, but for some reason... Carlos always felt that he wasn't lying.
Others didn't know, but he knew very well that the horse-shaped water monster was not raised on the Mayflower, but was indeed released from the juvenile box.
Since Luofu can carry a water monster with him, it doesn't seem too outrageous to have a fire dragon.
The boy had promised him earlier that he would not cause any conflict with the Mystic Circus, so why did he make such big news late at night?
Carlos was a little flustered and reluctant to check the box. After all, if something was found, he would not be able to protect the kid in front of everyone.
Skander seemed to see Carlos's scruples, and he shouted loudly: "Everyone, come with me to Scamander's room, he keeps a fire dragon!"
Under Skander's encouragement, everyone walked towards Rove's room.
Carlos had no choice but to follow. The only thing he could do was to help the boy delay for some time... If it was really him, I hope he had already taken care of the problem.
Everyone soon came to the door of a room, and Carlos knocked on the door. He knocked several times, but no one answered.
Skander showed a victorious smile on his face and said: "That boy must still be riding his fire dragon and has not returned to his room!"
But before he finished speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a young man stuck his head out. Seeing so many wizards at the door, he seemed startled.
"What's the matter, Mr. Carlos?"
Carlos took a breath and smiled: "Mr. Scamander, this gentleman just accused you of sneaking into his room... and releasing a fire dragon."
"Ah, are you talking about me?" Luo Fu looked stunned and exclaimed: "How could I do these things? I have been in my room tonight and have never gone out!
Why did this gentleman wrongly accuse me?”
"I have wronged you?" Skander's eyes seemed to be on fire, and he shouted filial piety: "Your box! Take it out and let me check it!"
"
"That involves my personal privacy. You have no right to inspect it, but..." Luo Fu sighed slightly:
"In order to protect my reputation, I am willing to take it out for inspection."
The boy returned to the room and quickly took out a black box, which he handed to Carlos.
Carlos opened the box directly in front of everyone, but there were only some personal items inside and nothing else.
"This is not your box!" Skander said angrily, "You changed the box."
"There is only one suitcase in my room. If you don't believe it, you can search it." Luo Fe shrugged.
"That means there is magic on this box, which blocks the entrance. Let me check!" Skander reached forward and grabbed it.
But Rolf was faster. He had already taken the box back from Carlos. He shook his head and said:
"Mr. Carlos is a notary and there is nothing wrong with his inspection, but you are different. You are the false accuser... What if someone tampered with my box?"
"That's right." Carlos nodded and said, "I didn't detect any magic. Mr. Skander, can't you trust me?"
Skander's face was gloomy and he said with an angry face: "I still have witnesses...Pete!"
A dwarf squeezed out of the crowd. His head was covered in blood and wrapped in thick bandages.
Rolf raised his head and looked at the dwarf with a half-smile. His cold eyes fell on Peter's face, making him tremble and goosebumps appeared on his arms.
Skander kicked Pete with his toes and urged: "Speak quickly, you little ***! Who hurt you!"
"It's him!" Peter raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at Rove:
"I was watching the mermaid, and he suddenly appeared, snatched the mermaid away, and injured me."
"Is this the so-called witness?" Rolf sneered: "When can a Muggle beast's words be used as evidence? I don't remember the classification of the Ministry of Magic, which includes this species as a human being."
"That's right!" Carlos said thoughtfully, "This is a Muggle beast, so it can't be considered a witness."
"Then you have witnesses to prove that you were in the room tonight?" Skander shouted: "If you have any, even if you find one, I will apologize to you immediately!"
"I'll prove it to Rove!"
Suddenly a clear voice came from the crowd, and everyone turned their heads to look.
I saw a silver-haired girl walking out. She was so beautiful that she attracted everyone's attention as soon as she appeared.
Fleur walked slowly to the boy's side, she blinked and said, "I... stayed in Rolf's room tonight and only left when I saw the fire dragon, so it can't be him!"
Everyone was in an uproar, and the commotion became deafening.
Carlos tilted his head and looked at Fleur and then at Rove with a strange expression. He asked what everyone present was thinking.
"What are you doing in Mr. Scamander's room in the middle of the night?"
"I'm teaching him French." Fleur's cheeks turned red, she blinked her eyes that became brighter and said softly:
"Rolf worked very hard to learn French with me...he stayed up late into the night, that's all!"
