After getting Sirius's assurance, Harry and the other two were overjoyed and were looking forward to school starting earlier.

On the other hand, Kyle did not return to St. Catchpole Village. Whether it was homework or anything else, it was almost always in his box, which he always carried with him.

Even if there were a few books he missed, he could always have an owl bring them back later, so he didn't need to go home at all.

The reason for leaving Number 12 Grimmauld Place early was for another reason.

When the Apparition ended, Kyle appeared in a lush forest.

On the pine tree on the left, a colorful owl was looking at him with its head tilted.

"Long time no see, Buddy." Kyle greeted him familiarly, and the evil bird chirped in response.

At this moment, a house-elf dressed in a weird way suddenly appeared not far ahead.

He was wearing a cane-like armor-like thing and a pair of very long rubber boots.

After seeing Kyle's appearance, the wariness on his face quickly turned into surprise.

"Oh, Mr. Kyle, is it really you?"

"It's me, Dobby," Kyle said. "How are you doing?"

"Thanks to Mr. Kyle." The house-elf said excitedly: "Dobby likes it here very much. It's really great to be able to work here!"

"That's good." Kyle smiled, "Is Newt home?"

"Yes." Dobby nodded repeatedly. "Mr. Scamander is taking care of the newborn invisible beasts... Oh, Dobby must go back and help quickly."

Having said that, he turned around and ran hurriedly into the depths of the forest.

Kyle followed, and after turning a corner, a wooden house appeared out of nowhere in front of him.

The door of the cabin was open, and a gray-haired witch was standing there.

"I just heard Dobby calling your name." Tina said with a smile, "Come in, I just baked some cookies."

Dobby couldn't help but curl his lips.

Even now, Dobby still had trouble accepting Tina's request that he not go near the kitchen.

This was too much torture for a house-elf... Fortunately, he had more things to do.

As soon as he entered the house, Dobby ran into the innermost room impatiently.

Not long after, Newt came out.

"Hogwarts will start tomorrow."

At the same time, Tina brought a plate of grapefruit cookies and placed it in front of Kyle. "I thought you wouldn't come here this year."

“A lot happened this holiday season,” Kyle said.

He did not hide anything and told everything about his encounter with Voldemort and his sudden interrogation by the Ministry of Magic.

The smile on Tina's face gradually disappeared and she became more and more serious.

As an old Auror, she didn't think there was anything wrong with Kyle's behavior. Facing the evil Death Eaters, he must do everything possible to protect himself.

Not to mention the Fire Curse, even the Soul-Taking Curse is possible.

But Tina didn't expect that the Death Eaters would go to the Ministry of Magic to complain. At least she had never encountered such a thing in her career.

"Luckily, there's Diana," she said with some relief.

"Yeah." Kyle nodded. If the spell hadn't failed to work before the flashback, it would not have been so easy for him to pass this level.

Newt next to him also breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Kyle had met Voldemort, but he had no idea about the subsequent interrogation.

"You don't have to worry." Tina glanced at Kyle and said, "If you encounter Death Eaters again, you can still do this, whether it's the Fiery Curse or something else, just use it, saving your life is the most important thing.

"As for whether you will be held accountable by the Ministry of Magic later, don't worry. If they want to investigate, I can send you to Ilvermorny. The British Ministry of Magic cannot control that place."

"Hey, you should trust Dumbledore." Newt muttered quietly, "He will definitely not watch Kyle being convicted."

"That's better," Tina said unhappily.

She knew that Newt trusted Dumbledore unconditionally, but that didn't mean Dumbledore could do everything.

Sometimes, you still need to be prepared for something else.

Newt naturally knew what Tina was thinking, so he didn't argue.

After eating the biscuits, Newt prepared to go back to the box. The cub of the invisible beast still needed some time to adapt to the environment. Although Dobby was there to help, he was still a little worried.

Kyle followed along.

"I heard Dumbledore mention that the man was resurrected."

After entering the box, Newt took a blanket from the shelf and said, "I said I could help, but Dumbledore refused. He only asked me to write to a few friends and invite them to come to England."

"Ah, that's ok, we can handle it," Kyle said.

He agreed with Dumbledore's decision. Newt was indeed a very powerful helper, but he was almost a hundred years old and there was no need for him to be involved in this matter.

The two passed through the woods and a lake and soon arrived at the invisible beast's lair.

Dobby was squatting there, teasing the newborn invisible beast with a wooden stick tied to a rattan ball.

The little guy's fur was nearly gray-brown, and his invisibility effect wasn't very good. It flickered all the time, and he looked like a little wizard who had just learned the Disillusionment Charm and couldn't use it skillfully yet.

Only when they grow a little bigger and their bodies turn silver-white can they hide themselves better, so now is also the time when the invisible beasts are most vulnerable.

Hearing the footsteps, Dobby immediately turned around and greeted the two people.

"Mr. Scamander, I feel that its invisibility effect is much better than before."

"That's right." Newt said with a smile, "The cubs of Invisible Beasts learn very quickly. Two days after birth, they can barely avoid being discovered by their natural enemies. Of course, it will take another month for them to completely turn silver-white."

"Mr. Scamander, Dobby will definitely take good care of it." Dobby said, patting his chest.

"I have no doubt about that." Newt said with a smile, "But you'd better not stay here all the time, because that will make them lose their vigilance and make the adult invisible beasts feel uneasy.

“You’d better hide in a more secluded place, like... there.” Newt pointed to an area with lush bushes.

Although he didn't quite understand, Dobby nodded and ran over quickly, hiding himself in the bushes, leaving only one big ear exposed.

Afterwards, the two went somewhere else.

Kyle came here with great difficulty, so Newt naturally would not miss this opportunity and took him to see many magical animals that behaved abnormally or were in a bad mood.

Kyle also once again made a cameo appearance as a magical animal psychologist and helped to find out the reason.

It was not until evening that they came out of the Moon Beast's cave.

A moon-crazy beast was ostracized by the tribe because of its non-standard dancing moves.

That’s why we say Newt’s box is magical. Here you can even see moon beasts that can’t dance. It’s really an eye-opener.

Newt had been teaching the other person to dance for the entire afternoon, and it was only now that he had finished.

"Do you want to go back for dinner?" Newt looked at the time and asked, "Or do you want to go somewhere else?"

"I'm not hungry yet." Kyle said with a smile.

Newt nodded, as if he understood something, "Tell me, where do you want to go?

"But I have to remind you that Dumbledore will not allow some magical animals into the castle, such as the Nundu panther."

Kyle's mouth just opened and then closed again in an instant.

He did come to Newt for help this time. Diana was right. Sometimes, the Fiery Curse was not the only option to deal with Death Eaters.

So he thought of another way... to find help.

The Nongdu leopard was one of his original targets, but before he could even open his mouth, Newt directly refused.

"This is a special period," Kyle whispered, "and I am confident that I can control it."

"This..." Newt hesitated.

Just like Kyle said, the Death Eaters had already attacked him, and no one could guarantee that there would be no second time.

And this time the Death Eaters used a different trick... they complained to the Ministry of Magic. Their trick didn't succeed this time, but what if it happened again? They couldn't really let Kyle go to Ilvermorny to hide.

"The Nangdu leopard does not distinguish between friend and foe," Newt said softly. "Once it attacks, everyone around it will be affected, and it is very likely to accidentally hurt its own people."

"I'll keep an eye on it," Kyle said.

Newt was silent for a long time before he said, "Only the Nongdu leopard?"

"Oh, there's another one." Kyle leaned over and whispered something.

After hearing this, Newt's eyes widened and he shook his head repeatedly.

"No, I can lend you the Nangdu Panther, but I absolutely cannot lend you this one. It's too dangerous. Dumbledore will definitely not allow you to bring it to the castle..."

"That was in the past. Things are different now."

Kyle said, “The castle itself is no longer safe, and it can even be said to be in an unprecedented crisis.

"Besides, it is a member of Hogwarts and has the responsibility to do its part to protect the school."

"Even if you say so." Newt still shook his head, "Well, I'll write a letter to Dumbledore. If he agrees, then it's fine."

"No need for that." Kyle whispered, "Besides, it was originally mine."

He didn't want Dumbledore to know about this, otherwise, he would most likely not agree.

"It's necessary," Newt said, "and you're wrong about one thing. It can only be handed over to you after you graduate."

"Okay." Kyle looked around and changed the subject, "How about we go see the Nangdu leopard first? The little guy should have grown up now."

"Although I haven't reached adulthood, I have indeed grown up a lot."
