The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

Chapter 10 Newt Scamander and his Niffler

"With your tone, someone who doesn't know would think I'm going to the battlefield." Sun Zhu was a little speechless, "I wasn't nervous at first, but you made me nervous."

"...I will remain quiet from now on." The system lowered the volume.

The fourth floor is obviously much neater than the seventh floor, and also much more spacious.

It should have been cast with some kind of space magic. After all, the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures is the second largest department in the Ministry of Magic after the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.

There are three main branches: the Beast Office, the Alien Office, and the Ghost Office. There is also a liaison office for goblins and centaurs.

The Fire Dragon Research and Restriction Bureau under the Beast Office is primarily responsible for handling this incident.

As soon as you enter the door, you can see a lot of people gathered around the table.

Sun Zhu couldn't help but feel a little nervous, her heart pounding. In addition to Amos Diggory, whom she had met before, she saw three other people.

The system introduced that the three of them were an officer of the Department of International Magical Cooperation, an investigator of the Dangerous Creatures Disposal Committee under the Beast Office, and a dragon tamer at the Romanian Fire Dragon Sanctuary.

Dragon tamer? It seems the Ministry of Magic is not as unreliable as she thought. As for whether it can be tamed, that is another matter.

Unfortunately, she didn't see the old man who looked like Newt, and she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Sun Zhengxing introduced her to everyone one by one and explained the purpose of her visit. The adults present were all kind.

After all, they are all people involved in the study of magical creatures. Seeing such a young girl who yearns for magical creatures, there is no reason for them to have any ill will towards her.

Even if she dresses strangely, she can still be regarded as innocent. In a sense, being young does make it easy for adults to like her.

Sun Zhu greeted everyone one by one and behaved very well.

"So, where is Mr. Scamander now?" Sun Zhengxing knew what his daughter was concerned about and asked for her.

"Mr. Scamander said he needs to go take another look at the dragon. He always feels that there is something wrong with it." The dragon trainer answered him, "Although the dragon has not shown any intention of attacking, I still think it is not safe to leave it here."

"Oh, Mr. Fawcett, I know what you mean." The officer of the Department of Magical Cooperation exclaimed, "You want to take that thing back to Romania, but is that possible? You don't have the authority to do so. Haha, let me say, Mr. Scamander said it came from China, so the people who have the most authority to take it away are actually Mr. Sun and Miss Sun."

When they introduced their identities just now, several adults knew that Sun Zhu was a pure Asian. However, she didn't think that this person was telling the truth. He just wanted to use the Sun family father and daughter who were watching to shut up Jamie Fawcett.

Jamie sighed and said nothing more.

Sun Zhengxing smiled and said, "Mr. MacLeod, I settled in London with my family when I was six years old, and entered Hogwarts at the age of eleven. My daughter and I are both British citizens. How can I bring this dragon to China?"

Sun Zhu looked at his father in surprise and sensitively noticed that he seemed a little angry.

He has always been a very kind person and rarely gets angry, but today he made an exception because of this boring McLeod.

She quietly pulled her father's sleeve, and Sun Zhengxing just patted her on the back without saying anything.

"Oh, Bird MacLeod, look at what you're saying," Amos Diggory said, trying to smooth things over. "Are you really going to give that thing to Bamboo on behalf of the Department of Magical Cooperation? That thing is hardly a suitable toy for a little girl."

Macleod smiled insincerely: "Mr. Diggory is right, I really can't do that."

"Cough cough..." A cough suddenly came from a closed file box on the desk. Sun Zhu was surprised to see something flying out of it.

Then a hand pushed open the lid and reached out. Just as she was about to take a closer look, she felt something pulling her sleeve.

She looked down and saw a small black animal with a long nose. It looked at her with its black bean-like eyes and then continued to pull her crystal cufflinks.

Hey, little guy, I finally caught you.

I knew Newt would always carry the Niffler with him.

She reached out and touched the Niffler who was concentrating on pulling her necklace. Hmm, it felt good, with smooth fur, very comfortable.

"I hate this necklace the most. Why hasn't it been untied yet..." Sniff's complaint came.

Silly child, of course you can't pull it open with your claws. The chain is buckled behind my neck. Are you trying to strangle me to death by using that force?

She reluctantly reached out to untie the necklace, sniffed and stuffed the chain into the pocket in front of his stomach. Then he continued to look at her with his big eyes, and finally decided to start with the hairpin.

Sun Zhengxing was startled. When he came to his senses, he saw Mr. Scamander coming out of the file box. With agility that was not in line with someone of his age, he pounced over and grabbed the little robber who was lying on Sun Zhu's head.

"Oh! My God. I'm so sorry, miss... Bob has never been able to change this little hobby of his." Newt Scamander, with his short curly hair, looked very embarrassed. Although he was ninety years old at this time, he looked like a Muggle in his fifties or sixties, and his posture was even straighter.

As he apologized, he hung the Niffler upside down and swung it by its little bag, just like she had seen in the movie all those years ago.

Soon her necklace and cufflinks fell out, and there were even a few glittering gold galleons and some shiny things that were hard to tell what they were.

"Oh, it's my Quidditch commemorative badge!" The investigator from the Dangerous Animals Disposal Committee, who had hardly spoken, exclaimed and took away a round golden object.

“……”Good boy, you have gained a lot.

Sun Zhu looked at the niffler named Bob with some admiration.

Xiu Xiu looked very upset. This was the legendary case of losing the rice while trying to steal the chicken.

She couldn't help laughing, but she heard Sniff say, "Humph, I'll take them all away again soon."

Huh? Now I can hear their inner thoughts without any contact?

"Can you understand me?" Bob's muffled voice came, "I want that gem."

Sun Zhu subconsciously took off the hairpin and was about to hand it over, but was stunned.

Newt and Sun Zhengxing looked at her in surprise. She explained awkwardly, "Oh, since Bob likes it, I can give it to him."

"Hmph, I had a red gem before and Newt took it away, but this one is bigger. I want this one."

Newt hurriedly stuffed the Niffler into his pocket, "Little girl, Bob has always been like this, he is naturally not resistant to shiny things."

"That's all right. Bob said he once had a ruby, but... well, I can give him this pink one."

Although the jewelry given by Sun Zhengxing was not very good-looking, the gems were real. She brought these to sniffle today and took the opportunity to talk to Newt. She couldn't just give him nothing.

Sun Zhengxing also smiled helplessly, "Mr. Scamander, this is what I told you yesterday, my daughter, Zhu. She has always liked you. Since she said she wants to give this to... Bob as a meeting gift, please don't refuse."

Newt was still embarrassed and was about to refuse, but suddenly realized, "Miss Sun, you just said, did you know that Bob once had a ruby?"
