The right way to attack Moriarty

Chapter 3 On the Importance of Forced Kissing

So--

"[Japanese] A remnant soul is detected, do you want to activate the Onmyoji system?"

Probably "ghost" and "onmyoji"?

But what are the rest?

Newt lowered his head and continued to flip through the Japanese book, frowning as he heard piles of chattering Japanese in the book.

A pair of big hands stretched out from the side, covering Newt's book.

Newt was very dissatisfied, but he didn't show it. Newt's temper was not good, but he knew that he needed to pretend to be a good boy, although at this time he didn't know the importance of pretending to a little badger. meaning, but he has already instinctively learned to disguise himself.

Theseus was wrong, it is not necessarily Slytherin who hates Muggles.From the very beginning, Newt was a Hufflepuff in disguise.

It's so annoying that I can't even read a book.

Newt looked up blankly, and the big face of Theseus appeared in front of his eyes.

Newt glanced at Theseus, removed his big hands covering the book, flipped through a few pages quickly, and finished reading the entire Japanese book, then looked up at Theseus, "Brother, your Have you bought all the textbooks?"

"Ah, there is still one missing, and it is said that it will arrive in four days." Theseus shrugged, "And you, have you found the Japanese book you want?"

"No, Mom went to the store owner and said that these books are not suitable, so I have to go to the warehouse to have a look."

"Hi, Theseus!" A tall blond boy waved at Theseus, "You are also buying books!"

"Well, the textbook on Charms hasn't arrived yet, and they say they'll have to wait another four days," Theseus nodded with a smile, and took Newt over to say hello, "Hi, Amos Moriarty."

"Your brother?" Amos Moriarty asked Theseus, pointing at Newt.

Theseus nodded: "Well," he turned his head and glanced at Newt before introducing, "Newt Scadman."

When Theseus looked back, Newt understood that it was his brother's consideration for him-he had just finished saying that he didn't like the name, and his brother Theseus avoided it when he introduced it.Newt was very moved by this. Theseus said to let him do what he wanted to do. It turned out that he was not just talking. Theseus really respected Newt’s opinion. Although Newt was only five years old, But Theseus didn't treat him as a child who didn't know anything, but as an adult with thinking ability and an independent person.

Even in the future, Newt will always be grateful for it when he recalls his childhood life after going through a lot of storms.

The education methods of Theseus and Helen allowed Newt to form an independent personality at a very young age. On the road of life, Theseus and Helen told him to rely on his own judgment, listen, see, Make choices, and, take responsibility for yourself.

His high achievements in the future are not unrelated to his education at this time.

The child across from him looked up at Newt, smiled and rolled his eyes, revealing two cute little canine teeth and a pair of dimples, he said.

"Hi, my name is Jim Moriarty, brother of Amos Moriarty."

The black curly-haired boy turned to his brother and smiled, "Brother, it was this brother who helped me get this manga just now."

Amos Moriarty smiled and patted Theseus on the shoulder: "Look, this is fate."

Newt held out his hand to Jim Moriarty with a shy smile, "Hello, my name is Newt Scamander."

The group waited for a while, and Helen followed the shopkeeper out of the warehouse, holding a stack of Japanese books in her hands, and waved to Newt.

"Newt, come and take a look, are there any books you want?"

Newt ran to Helen.

Jim Moriarty looked at Newt's back thoughtfully, and whispered, "Is he looking for books about ghosts?"

"What?" Amos and Theseus couldn't hear clearly, so they couldn't help asking.

Jim showed an innocent smile: "It's nothing. I'll go see Newt, maybe he needs my recommendation?"

It's a pity that Jim's calf is short, and before he could pass, Newt, with Helen's company, finished selecting the basic Japanese encyclopedia, basic Japanese vocabulary, commonly used Japanese magic vocabulary of 3500 words, Mars Japanese professional eighth-level vocabulary...

"T-T, Theseus," Amos stared at the pile of vocabulary books in Newt's hand, dumbfounded, "Your brother is amazing! How old are you, and you're about to start minoring in a second foreign language?"

Theseus turned his head to look at Newt, and explained to Amos: "No way, he wants to learn, and has been clamoring for several years."

Jim's eyes kept turning on Newt's book, and his eyes kept drifting to Newt.

"I'm five years old this year, how old are you?" Newt took the initiative to break the silence, talking to the curly-haired boy.

"Oh, I'm four years old." Jim laughed again, revealing a pair of cute little canine teeth and a pair of dimples.

"Oh." Newt turned his head to look at Jim, a pair of dimples were dazzling.

Newt turned his head back, pursing his lips indifferently.

Unexpectedly, the Moriarty family was in the same residential area as them.

"It's just two streets away, I'll come to play often in the future." Before parting, Amos Moriarty said.

"Okay." Theseus Scamander agreed.

Jim Moriarty had crooked eyes, even if he didn't say anything, he still smiled, which was very lovable.

Newt thought about it, and said goodbye to his new playmate.

In the end, his new playmate came to his ear with a smile, and said something on tiptoe.

"Turn off the lights at night, hold your breath, or ghosts will take advantage of your breath, run down your windpipe, and enter your body, hair eaters, ghouls, baby eaters, spirit eaters—they It will eat your hair, heart, soul, and even your body, oh-"

After finishing speaking, he opened his mouth in a pretentious manner, and squeezed his face into a strange expression.

"You don't even have bones and skeletons left—" In order to create a terrifying atmosphere, Jim even deliberately lowered his voice.

Newt thought for a while, wrapped his arms around Jim's neck, and whispered something in his ear: "Then I'll tell them, there's a kid named Jim Moriarty two streets away, who's younger and tastier than me. .”

After finishing speaking, he took the hand that was holding Jim, took a bite on Jim's two dimples, and nodded expressionlessly: "Well, the taste is really good. It's better than mine."

#Mama, why didn’t he cry out in fright?#

#Mama, why is his painting style wrong#

#Ma Ma, this person is so scary, I want to go back to Mars#

Newt didn't have a dimple himself. After taking a bite of Jim's dimple, he was in a very happy mood. He went back to the bedroom with a stack of books, and listened to these vocabulary books with the mood of listening to stories.

Two days later, Newt listened to all the word books and found that the few words he was looking for could not be found here.

annoying.

The books Helen bought for him were about commonly used words and basic vocabulary, which couldn’t solve his problems at all. Newt irritatedly flipped through the eighth-level vocabulary of the Martian Japanese major. Theseus went out to play with Amos today. Helen went to work, and he stayed at home alone, dragging his chin, lazily listening to these Japanese professional eight-level vocabulary.

Newt's eyes lit up.

found it--

"[Japanese] Detection"——

It turned out to mean testing, surveying, and testing.

"【Japanese】Open"——

It turns out that it means to open, start, and make work.

"[Japanese] System"——

It means [system], but what does system mean?

Newt frowned, and ran to the study, tiptoeing for an Oxford English Dictionary.

Closing the book, Newt still didn't understand the meaning of the system.

No way, this vocabulary is really beyond the comprehension of a five-year-old child.

But for the rest, Newt knew pretty well, at least that the sentence was asking "yes" or "no."

In general, except for the incomprehensible "system", this sentence can be translated as "if there are residual ghosts detected outside, do you want to activate something called Onmyoji".

So, the system is probably used to catch ghosts?

Newt thought back to the Japanese book, where in Shinto stories, Onmyoji was always associated with ghost-hunting stories.

Newt didn't intend to tell Theseus or Helen about the system. Obviously, they would stop Newt from using the system because it was not safe. More importantly, Newt didn't know how to tell Theseus or Helen. It was even more inexplicable for Steve and Helen to explain it, especially after Newt decided to pretend to be like a normal child.

Newt thought for a while, and didn't choose to open it rashly, but opened "Hundred Ghosts of the Night" on the side.

There are a lot of ghost stories in the comics. Newt couldn’t help laughing while reading it. The ghosts that eat this and ghosts that eat that that Jim scares him before are all plagiarized from here, and there is no creativity at all.

Newt pondered for a long time, carefully memorizing the characteristics and characteristics of various ghosts.

The voice repeated again, "[Japanese] A remnant soul has been detected, do you want to activate the Onmyoji system?" Newt closed the book, took a deep breath, and said firmly, "Yes."

The interface opens slowly.

"The story takes place in the era when humans and ghosts co-exist. The ghosts and monsters that originally belonged to the underworld lurk in the panic of human beings and wait for an opportunity to move. The order of the yang world is at stake. Fortunately, there are a group of people in the world who know how to observe the stars, draw amulets and chant spells, and can also cross the border. The yin and yang worlds, and even the supernatural beings who control the spirits, are doing their best to maintain the balance between the yin and yang worlds, risking their lives to fight, and they are honored as "Onmyoji" by the world—"

After a period of chattering Japanese faded away, small square characters appeared one after another——

Newt sighed, feeling that the road ahead would be difficult. Perhaps, before he could become a great Onmyoji, he had to become a great foreign language expert first.
