The right way to attack Moriarty

Leta Lestrange paid for the wand and was in no hurry to leave.

To be honest, Jim Moriarty is a man with a bad stomach, and he is quite difficult to deal with.

If it wasn't for Newt today, she wouldn't be confronting Jim Moriarty directly.

Jim Moriarty is not scary, what is scary is the Ulysses next to him, the only son of the McLaggen family - Ulysses's level of magic is said to be quite high, even higher than that of Ammoti Moriarty To be so high.

Amote Moriarty is already the best in the pure-blood family, Rita thinks she can't do five tricks under Amote's hands.

In case of a direct confrontation with Ulysses, Leta Lestrange has no chance of winning at all, so she can only delay first, and then use the Portkey to go directly back to Lestrange Manor.

Leta Lestrange waited in the wand shop for a while longer to make sure that Jim Moriarty and his group had gone away before getting up and leaving.

Unfortunately, Jim Moriarty still blocked her at the door.

"Leta, for the sake of Merlin's underwear, we haven't settled the bill today, so don't rush away." Jim Moriarty came out of the dark alley with a smile on his face, the toy wand in his hand shining brightly. With a red light, a "Quick Imprisonment" directly attacked Leta Lestrange.

Leta Lestrange dodged quickly, and quickly scanned the surroundings, making sure that she and Jim Moriarty were the only two people in this alley, then she smiled sweetly and dodged in a calm manner." Stunned," unhurriedly took out his wand from his wizard robe, and issued a "stunned" at Jim Moriarty.

Leta Lestrange beamed.

"Oh, poor Jim, where's your protector? For my cousin's sake, you alone can't beat me."

Jim Moriarty shrugged nonchalantly, but he didn't back down, and even stepped forward casually, letting Leta Lestrange's curse hit his heart.

As Jim stepped forward, Leta Lestrange smiled knowingly, and the tassel earrings swayed left and right with her movements.

"Oh, you wear an alchemy product, but—Jim, you should know that that thing has a number of uses."

Jim Moriarty suddenly laughed.

At the same time, the curse cast on Jim Moriarty's heart suddenly counterattacked, hitting its sender—Leta Lestrange along the original route.

Before Leta Lestrange passed out, she heard Jim Moriarty's smiling voice.

"Two years ago, he also tried to attack me in a stupor. Tsk, he almost succeeded. It's a pity, but since that time, the alchemy products on me have been updated. This is the latest model with a counterattack function. , my dear Leta."

Jim Moriarty stroked Leta Lestrange's hair with a sly look.

When Stuart's wand shop was about to close, Leta Lestrange pushed the door in again.

She asked the busy Newt, "Are you free later?"

"Oh, he's not free," Stuart replied with a smile on behalf of Newt, "he's going to work in the cold drink shop next door soon."

"Then are you free tomorrow?" Leta Lestrange let out a frustrated "Oh" and continued to ask.

"Tomorrow?" Stuart made the calculations for Newt on the side, "No time, little Newt will be on duty at the Fantastic Beasts shop in Knockturn Alley in the morning, at Stuart's Wand Shop in the afternoon, and in the evening. Go to the soda shop next door."

"Ah," Leta Lestrange showed obvious frustration, "You have to work all day, and I want to ask you out for a cup of coffee."

"For what?" Newt looked up at Leta Lestrange with a surprised expression. Did the young lady of the Lestrange family take the wrong medicine?Why is he suddenly interested in Scamander, who was born as a commoner?

Leta Lestrange showed a "you know I know" smile: "About that article, you know, I need your help."

Newt frowned, looking unhappy.

He doesn't like bringing research into work, especially this kind of work that has nothing to do with research.

"Stuart's Wand Shop closes at six and the Soda Shop starts at seven, and we can talk in between."

"Okay," Leta Lestrange gestured "yes", "Then the appointment is at Mrs. Puddife's teahouse?"

Newt nodded with a calm expression: "After 10 minutes, yes."

Leta Lestrange took her wand and left contentedly, leaving behind a sweet figure.

Stuart sent off the second lady of the Lestrange family with a smile, and teased Newt with a smile: "It's another follower of yours, little Newt, it's amazing, young and young, there are people who admire you Come on, boy, not bad!"

Newt smirked and looked up at Stuart.

"No matter now, please give me my two hundred and one Galleons first, thank you."

Stuart shook his head "tsk tsk", counted two hundred and one Galleons from his purse and threw it to Newt.

"I thought you were so kind. Look, you have the same black heart and lungs as me."

After counting the Galleons, Newt looked up at Stuart and smirked again.

"Sir, I think you have probably forgotten that the second lady of the Lestrange family, Jim Moriarty, and their Galleons all came after me. Without me, you Probably not for a copper knut."

"Get out of here, brat." Stuart pushed Newt out and closed the wand shop.

Leta Lestrange was already waiting at Mrs. Puddife's teahouse, ordering strawberry custard and chocolate custard early.

Leta Lestrange was wondering if she should add another dessert when Newt walked by.

"About the precise control of magic power, what do you want to ask?"

Newt went straight to the point.

"You know, I follow the method you mentioned in the wizard core journal "Magic Power Control", step by step, and continuously improve my magic power control ability. With the improvement of accuracy, my magic power has increased significantly."

"Hmm." Newt nodded, "Any questions?"

Leta Lestrange's eyes lit up: "I would like to ask you to continue your research. I can give you enough research fees. You know, I need the results of this research."

Newt declined without interest.

"Sorry, my research is based on magical animals, not magic enhancement, I don't think I can help you."

"No, no," Leta Lestrange gave a sly smile, "You know, two articles in different core journals, three letters of recommendation from professors, you can get a copy directly from Hogwarts After graduation, as long as you have an article, I can help you contact the professor."

Newt smiled, meaning unclear.

"Sorry, I think I still yearn for life at Hogwarts."

"What on earth do you want to agree to?" Leta Lestrange lowered her voice, complaining dissatisfiedly, the tassel earrings shaking from side to side.

Newt didn't answer right away, tapping the table with one hand, for a moment, he said.

"I heard that the Lestrange family has a Fantastic Beasts store in Greece?"

"Uh—" Leta Lestrange frowned sadly, "I can't be the master of such a large property."

Newt chuckled.

"How could I make such a condition, it's just a Chimera."

"Chimera?" Leta Lestrange's eyes widened suddenly, and after a while, she murmured, "I'd better try to give you that magical animal store."

Newt couldn't help laughing.

"Hey," Leta Lestrange kicked Newt under the table with a dissatisfied expression.

"What's so funny about that?"

"A grown-up Chimera is very ferocious and difficult to tame. A dozen wizards may not be able to subdue it. I said it can't be done. Is it so funny?"

Newt couldn't stop laughing, and after a while, he waved his hands and smiled.

"Miss, are you stupid? There are Kemera eggs sold on the black market in Greece. Class A is prohibited from buying and selling goods. What a big deal."

Leta Lestrange was embarrassed, and turned her head in embarrassment.

"Hey, what, you just said that you want a chimera egg, so why are you talking about a chimera?"

"Oh," Newt replied solemnly, "because it's fun to tease you."

Leta Lestrange snorted and took a bite of the strawberry custard.

"You said, before the age of 11, you can achieve the wizard's secondary magic power increase by dissecting Hawklap's twenty methods. After that, is there any other way to increase the magic power?"

Leta Lestrange said as she ate, she also looked at the chocolate custard in front of Newt, and the tassel earrings made a naughty sound with her movements.

"I don't know." Newt leaned on the backrest without sincerity, folded his hands on his chest, "I haven't found anything yet, and I don't have any inspiration yet. As I said, I mainly study magical animals, and the increase in magic power is incidental. of."

"Oh." Leta Lestrange agreed in disappointment, and did not forget to tell Newt, "Then you have to study quickly, you can tell me any materials you need, and I will provide them for you!"

"Yeah," Newt lazily replied, and finally he was willing to put his eyes on the chocolate custard.

Rita Lestrange highly recommends: "It's delicious! Really! Try it! I'm not kidding you!"

Newt picked up the chocolate custard, looked at it carefully for a moment, chuckled, and put it back on the table.

"Jim Moriarty, have you had enough?"

Leta Lestrange's eyes widened sharply, with an expression of disbelief.

"How did you find out?!"

Newt took out a bottle of potion from his wizard robe and threw it to the little wizard opposite.

"First dissolve the compound decoction."

The little wizard hesitated for a while, and finally opened the bottle cap, smelled it, and drank it after confirming that there was no problem.

For a moment, Leta Lestrange, who was opposite, turned into Jim Moriarty in the blink of an eye.

Jim Moriarty kicks Newt under the table again.

"How did you find out?"

Newt pointed to the chocolate custard on the table.

"Lots of holes, at least, my signature is 'no custard', and, leta lestrange, please don't ask me how to spot it It’s one with added ingredients, I’ve worked here for half a year, and I still have some discerning ability.”

Jim Moriarty's dark eyes rolled around.

"Maybe, she wants to try to see if you are the author?"

Newt said "hmm", "This involves your second flaw."

"At first, I just thought that Leta Lestrange was playing a prank, and I didn't suspect that she was picked up by someone, but your first sentence was wrong."

"What did I say?" Moriarty wrinkled his pretty nose and huddled his lovely eyebrows, trying to recall—

At that time Newt asked him, what do you want to ask about the precise control of magic power?

Then he said—

"I followed the method you mentioned in the wizard core journal "Magic Power Control", and gradually improved my magic power control ability. With the improvement of accuracy, my magic power has increased significantly."

"Isn't it because the magic power is more precise and gradual, which increases the magic power? You were deceiving me from the beginning?"

Newt shook his head: "Your second half is fine, the problem is in the first half."

Moriarty was a little dazed: "Aren't the articles about the precise control of magic power published in "Magic Power Control"?"

"I said twice, my main research is Fantastic Beasts, that article, published in The Uses of Fantastic Beasts—"

"Damn it," Moriarty interrupted Newt with annoyed expression, "The Uses of Fantastic Beasts is the Lestrange family's magazine, so she must know your real name!"

Newt nodded.

"You're right, I think, I can leave?"

Moriarty: "Wait, don't you even care what happened to Lestrange? You're not afraid we'll murder her?"

"You won't," Newt stood up and sneered, "You will only bully those who are weaker than you, the second daughter of the Lestrange family, you dare not touch her."

"Hey! Why are you talking so badly?!" Moriarty stood up abruptly, "I'm just mocking your brother, you don't have to dislike me so much, I noticed it in the wand shop just now, you Don't even want to make me a wand!"

"Oh," Newt looked back at Moriarty with cold eyes.

Moriarty suddenly remembered that when Newt was holding the dead Bowtruckle, he also looked at him with such cold eyes.

Newt had already walked out of the private room door, and Moriarty hurried after him, grabbed Newt's sleeve, and begged in a low voice.

"Either, or else, I'll catch you another Bowtruckle, and we'll make up."

"I don't think we've ever been better, Mr. Moriarty." Newt rejected him coldly.

Moriarty blushed suddenly, "You kissed me when I was four years old!"

"Stupid back then." Newt sneered, and neatly shook off Jim's hand on his sleeve, and turned to leave.

Such a lovely person, yet so cruel and ruthless inside.

Newt only felt that he was blind.

Moriarty stomped behind him, blushing, and only said a word after a while.

"I was wrong."

It's a pity that Newt had already gone far away, and he couldn't hear Moriarty's confession at all.
