[Time Reversal]
"La la la~" Nina hummed a cheerful tune, carrying a pot of fresh flowers as she walked through the living room.
Queenie: (one_one)
Tina, who was also sitting on the sofa, saw this scene and felt overjoyed.
"What's that look on your face?"
"I don't know, I just feel really annoyed."
"Isn't it just cleaning up a room for a friend coming to visit? What are you annoyed about?"
Tina patted her sister's shoulder to comfort her. "Be normal, otherwise Nina will worry about you when she sees you."
"Hmph! I've been sitting here all morning! Has she even looked at me?"
Queenie gnashed her teeth while chewing on a Lemon Sherbet. "And preparing fresh flowers? Is that Karl Orolin a little Wizard with a girlish heart? Do I need to provide some small dresses?"
Watching her jealous sister, Tina almost laughed out loud. "This is the first time Nina has invited a friend over. Watch your attitude. I've heard Nina say that Karl is an excellent Wizard."
Queenie sneered coldly. "I'd like to see just how excellent he is! Does he have an extra head compared to everyone else?"
"Actually, I think—" Newt, who was pretending to read a book nearby, wanted to put in a good word for his little junior.
But he was met with Queenie's expressionless stare, so he had to shut his mouth and give his wife a look for help.
Tina nodded to show she understood. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Queenie start muttering to herself.
"Sigh, I was wrong, I was really wrong. I shouldn't have agreed to let Nina go to Hogwarts for a year in the first place. If I hadn't let her go, she wouldn't have stayed at Hogwarts—"
"Ahem!" Newt coughed loudly. "Hogwarts is still quite good, especially Hufflepuff."
Queenie immediately glared at him. "I didn't realize it before, but as a dropout, you actually have such deep feelings for the school."
Pfft!
Newt felt like he had been shot in the chest!
"Rolf!" After dealing with Newt, Queenie looked at Rolf Scamander, who was eating snacks. "Why don't you come with me to Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? Europe is still too dangerous!"
Not to mention Gellert Grindelwald, who still made her shudder, she had heard that Hogwarts had produced a dangerous figure called Lord Voldemort a few years ago. It didn't look like a place where one could study properly at all.
"Huh? Let me think about it!" Rolf Scamander scratched his head. Originally, he was going to follow Nina to Ilvermorny.
But now that Nina was staying at Hogwarts, he didn't know how to choose.
After all, he didn't know anyone at Ilvermorny, while Nina was at Hogwarts.
Oh right, there was also a distant relative, Anthony Goldstein, who had been sorted into Ravenclaw and would be in his second year when school started.
"What are you guys talking about?" Nina, having finished putting away the flowers, walked down the stairs, looking at the four of them curiously.
"Um—nothing, just wondering what your friend Karl looks like."
Nina looked at Tina with bright eyes, her tone cheerful. "He's super amazing!"
Queenie rolled her eyes. Before she could speak, the sound of a horn mixed with ocean waves came from outside.
"That sound…" Newt's expression turned serious, and he immediately drew his wand. "Accio Suitcase!"
After catching the suitcase, he instantly used Apparition and disappeared.
Seeing Tina pick up her wand to follow, Queenie hurriedly reached out and grabbed her. "What happened? Is there a battle?"
"A friend nearby just sent a distress signal. Newt and I are going to save them."
Tina grabbed Rolf on the way. "You go to the basement and stay there. Don't come out until we return, and don't respond to any noise."
"Huh?" Before Rolf Scamander could react, he was dragged away by three Kneazles biting his clothes.
"Nina, you—"
"I'm going with you!" Nina gripped her wand tightly, her eyes firm and her attitude resolute.
Tina and Queenie exchanged a look. There was no time to argue now. "Follow us closely!"
The three of them immediately rushed out the door and ran in the direction of the horn sound.
Seeing Newt's back standing on the reef from afar, Tina took the two of them and vanished on the spot, appearing beside Newt.
"Kaya! Are you okay?" Tina was surprised to see her Merperson friend, along with her daughter Yara, hiding in the seawater beside the reef.
They looked very weak, and the little Merperson Yara looked even more terrified.
Kaya had a bitter smile on her pale face. "I'm fine, I've just brought trouble and danger to you and Newt."
"Yara and I were caught by a group of Dark Wizards and kept in a cage underwater. Although we escaped, but—"
She lifted her head to reveal the chain on her neck. "This thing won't come off. As long as those Dark Wizards recite the spell, it will keep tightening, making me unable to breathe, so I had to call for your help."
Hearing Kaya and Yara's plight, anger appeared on Newt and Tina's faces, while unbearable pity welled up in Queenie and Nina's eyes.
Just at this moment, a large fishing boat sailed from afar, approaching rapidly.
Kaya hugged the trembling Yara, her tone extremely grave. "They're here!"
"Don't worry, Kaya, it will be fine. Nina, help treat their injuries."
"Okay!" Nina immediately pointed her wand at Kaya and her daughter Yara. "Nature's Gift!"
As the emerald green halo full of life energy healed their injuries, the fishing boat arrived nearby, and twenty or so Dark Wizards jumped from the boat onto the nearby reef.
"The famous Mr. Newt Scamander, I didn't expect to meet you here."
An old man with white hair looked at the suitcase in Newt's hand, his eyes full of greed.
"It's a pity I have more important things to do this time, otherwise we could have made a deal."
Speaking of this, the white-haired old man's expression became fierce. "Hand over those two Merpersons, Mr. Scamander. I don't want to... You're courting death!"
