Everyday life at Midtown High School

Chapter 142 Being a parent is not easy

Silently broke out suddenly, and then ended suddenly. The whole process was very short, and many people didn't have time to discover it.

General Ross, who was the person involved, mistakenly believed that the Hulk had evolved.

After being defeated by 'Bruce Banner' again, this somewhat arrogant general became very interested in Hulk's mutation mode. At the same time, he always failed, so he consciously blocked all news in shame.

This also indirectly helped Pooh and the others keep a secret.

However, as the Security Minister of the United States Ministry of Magic, Paximir Graves, he couldn't force himself to pretend that he didn't know about it.

Such a sudden burst of powerful magical power may not be felt by ordinary people, and ordinary wizards will ignore it, but as the head of the security department, he cannot be so ignorant.

When Credence and Pooh were hanging out, worrying about how to keep a secret...

Minister Graves has brought a few Aurors, and quickly apparated to the scene of the incident, avoiding those No-Majs, and gently touching the surroundings with his wand to check the situation at that time.

This arrogant and conceited minister, after noticing the traces of Credence, lied at work for the first time in his life: "It should be some unknown magical creature. I'm here, you go back first." Report to the Ministry. By the way, let the expert on magical beasts, Mr. Scamander from England, come and have a look."

Because of his usually strict personality, the Aurors did not dare to question his orders at all and nodded their heads one after another.

Then, obediently following his orders, they Apparated and returned to the Ministry of Magic.

At this point, Graves breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, if it was discovered that Credence had erupted silently, the Council of Wizards of America would definitely bring it up again and put that child in a dark prison to prevent the danger from happening again.

It was precisely because he knew this clearly that he could not help covering up for that child.

Of course, this time, even if Credence exploded out of control, he didn't really hurt anyone, which was one of the main reasons why he was willing to help.

"Since he didn't hurt anyone, I can't just watch others lock him up just because of fear."

While thinking in his heart, he waved his wand and quickly cleaned up the scene, making sure that there was nothing that would leak silent information or expose the American wizarding community before he stopped with confidence.

"I heard that there are magical animals appearing here?"

After a slight apparition sound, Newt's voice came from behind.

"There are no magical beasts, but I need you to tell me a lie." Graves said calmly, twirling his wand.

He briefly explained the situation to Newt Scamander who rushed over: "You have to help him check his body again. I can help him once, but I can't help him every time. Next time he has another sudden explosion, I will There is no way to help him cover it up."

"Er... well, that's good enough, Minister Graves."

Newt was obviously surprised that Graves would rather lie than protect Credence, after all, this minister seems to be the unselfish type on a daily basis, so...

He couldn't help but stammered and moved, "Thank you, thank you, for Credence."

The handsome man with small freckles tried his best to show a friendly smile to the minister: "Credence won't explode randomly, he must have a reason."

"I'll ask him, what's the reason this time!"

Graves said in a bad tone.

Newt flinched, looked at the minister's face that looked like a villainous boss, and wanted to ask, 'What are you going to ask?Will he be killed? '

Although he already knew that the minister was a good person, but probably because the other party was too aggressive and his personality was too cold, he really couldn't treat the minister as friendly as he did to Tina. He just felt in awe and wanted to stay away.

Graves was in a bad mood, even though he chose to defend Credence.

But I have to say that this kind of trouble for no reason still makes him very unhappy.

On the way back to the wizarding world, he had been in a state of displeasure.

Then, he asked Newt in a cold tone, "Is your brother busy recently?"

"Uh... I'm not sure..."

Newt lowered his head uncomfortably, and said hesitantly, "We...we don't really get along very well, our interests and hobbies are different."

Graves gave him a frowning, disapproving look.

But really, he's just reminiscing about another Scamander, in contrast to Newt.

Newt turned his head sideways, as if he was embarrassed when he was with others, as if he had nowhere to put his hands and feet.

Graves' gaze was fixed on him, very oppressively.

Newt was almost terrified by his stare, but the minister was just in a daze.

He continued to recall another wizard from the Scamander family, a legendary battle hero, the most promising rising star in the British Ministry of Magic.

Yes, the two brothers are indeed different!

After reaching a conclusion, Graves turned his gaze away.

In order not to make the atmosphere too awkward, he also took the initiative to change the subject.

"I heard from Queenie that another magical animal was lost in your box?"

He tried to make small talk, but it sounded like an interrogation.

"Ah... yes, it's Nixie." As soon as the topic turned to animals, Newt's tone became much more natural.

But he was afraid that this was a warning given to him by the minister, so he quickly explained: "Don't worry, Xixiu is just for fun and has no lethality. I have tried my best to track it down, and I will find it soon. I Guaranteed, I won't let Xixiu destroy it."

Graves nodded noncommittally.

His silent performance made Newt less nervous, and he was talking about his best animal...

In the following journey, like a middle-aged aunt who mentioned her stupid son who was studying in college, he proudly told the story of the lost sniffing dog over and over again, with the emphasis on "Xixiu is so caring So cute, just a bit mischievous and mischievous, but it’s just like a child, too lively, please, don’t have any bad impressions on it, it really has no bad intentions, it’s a good boy '.

Graves' expressionless, thoughtful sternness made Newt unable to help defending the Niffler even more.

However, the Minister of Security has already regretted it countless times. Why is he talking about magical animals when he has nothing to do?His face became more serious...

Newt looked terrified, and had to repeat the harmlessness of Xixiu again, for fear that the minister would directly hit Awada after finding Xixiu.

In the end, he ended the topic of "Sniffing a hundred good" with some inclinations, carefully glanced at Graves' face, and said in a low voice, "That...Mr. Graves."

Graves looked at him.

"Please, please be nice to Credence..."

Newt stammered persuasively, "That kid's mentally fragile."

"I adopted children, not for abuse."

Graves responded coldly with some dissatisfaction.

'But when you straighten your face, you look very scary! '

Newt groaned inwardly.

Then, he smiled awkwardly and said, "That's good..."

When Credence returned home, he found that Mr. Graves was not working in the study, but was sitting in the living room with a cold expression, as if waiting for someone.

This is indeed the case. After seeing him, Graves raised his head slightly and asked him straight to the point: "Has Moran rioted today?"

Credence shuddered immediately.

"Speak." Graves asked impatiently.

Credence didn't know what to say.

He didn't dare to lie, but he was afraid that if he told the truth, he would meet disgusted or angry eyes from Mr. Graves.

Therefore, he didn't dare to lift his head, and only dared to look at the black leather shoes of the other party.

Graves was getting irritable again.

He was clearly able to communicate normally with those No-Maj friends, why is he still acting so cowardly to himself?

"Speak up, don't make me use Legilimency," Graves said threateningly.

Of course he wouldn't use it.

Not to mention that he would not use such a terrible black magic on a child, but in order to prevent silent riots, he would not use this kind of magic lightly.

But Credence didn't know.

He has not been educated in the magic school system, and he has always had a half-knowledge of magic. Lies that sound a little bit like the truth can deceive him.

because of fear.

He raised his head hastily, looked at Graves with a pleading and pitiful look, and replied tremblingly, "Yes..."

"What is it?" Graves asked with a dark face.

However, deep down in his heart, he just felt that he was too tired. If this conversation continued, could he really ask the cause and effect clearly?

"Yeah, yeah, it's all my fault." Credence whimpered and said something useless.

With Graves' face getting darker and darker, with two tears in his eyes, he involuntarily took off the belt, held it in both hands and handed it to Graves, and knelt at his feet.

This is a bad habit cultivated by the adoptive mother who abused him for nearly ten years.

But now, appearing in front of Graves, he was so angry that he wanted to throw things, and wanted to travel back to the past, Avada his damn adoptive mother, also Avada him.

How many times have I said that!How many times!

No one, no one is worthy of your knees, are the bones so soft?No matter how you teach it, you can’t teach it!

There has never been a wizard in the Graves family who would kneel at every turn!

The minister was really furious.

However, when Newt, who had finished taking care of the animals, opened the door and came in, he happened to see this scene.

The atmosphere froze for a few seconds.

He walked over quickly, tried to help Credence, and at the same time suppressed his fear, angrily accused: "Graves, you said, you said, you will not abuse him!"

It's really a heavy and big black pot.

Minister Graves, who played the role of the feared big devil every day, tapped the palm of his left hand again and again with his wand.

But he was so angry that he couldn't get any more angry.

So, he raised the corners of his lips and smiled coldly.

Newt hugged Credence, and the two shivered together.

Unlike Credence's unfortunate encounter.

After Pooh returned to the Avengers Building, his whole body became lively.

He declared very affectionately to Harry: "Now, I am a man with a father and a mother again."

Harry suppressed a smile and asked sharply, "Who is your mother?"

"Good question!" Pooh gave him a thumbs up.

Then, he flipped through the calendar and made a unilateral decision: "One, three, five, Tony will be the mother, two, four, six, Steve will be the mother, and on Sunday... well, it's decided by lottery."
