Sean discovered that even though he had some authority over the Room of Requirement, he still lacked understanding of what was in it - of course, it was possible that Dumbledore had put it in there himself.

For example, a huge prayer wheel in front of a few people.

"We need to get to Bhutan and this thing can help us," Newt said.

"This thing... could it be a door key?" Sean looked at the prayer wheel, and he could faintly feel a trace of the magic power on it.

Newt shook his head: "I don't know the specifics. Dumbledore can always find all kinds of... um, weird things? This thing seems to come from Bhutan, and Bhutan is the origin of some of our very important magic. , rumor has it that if you listen carefully in the land of Bhutan, you can hear the past whispering to you.”

A whisper from the past? Sean raised his eyebrows.

I don't know if I can hear the whispers, but it must be very lively there.

"Are we going just like that? Don't we need to prepare anything?" Sean asked.

Newt showed an embarrassed expression: "In fact, I also think that we need to be more prepared. After all, we may face many wizards when we arrive in Bhutan. But since Dumbledore didn't say it, then - —”

Typical and excellent Hufflepuff, Sean sighed. However, from another perspective, if it were him, he would probably do what Dumbledore ordered.

Newt walked up to the prayer wheel and put his right hand on it.

The ancient mysterious patterns carved on it seemed to come alive. They started running on the surface of the prayer wheel, and then the prayer wheel began to rotate rapidly.

"Jacob, Queenie, you go first, remember to protect yourself first. However, the box is with me, and the other party shouldn't make things difficult for you." Newt said.

Jacob and Queenie looked at each other, held each other's hands, and then disappeared as if absorbed by a prayer wheel.

"Sure enough, it's the door key..." Sean muttered.

Newt turned to look at Sean: "Together?"

Sean stepped forward and glanced at Newt's suitcase out of the corner of his eye. After hesitating for a moment, he still asked: "Professor Scamander, do you think it is really true to let a magical animal choose the supreme leader... …Is it reasonable?”

Newt shrugged in a rare helpless and troubled manner: "Actually, nothing that happened recently was quite right."

"Professor, why did you suddenly go to Qilin?" Sean has always been curious about the cause of this matter.

"To be precise, I didn't have the idea, because the Kirin Election has been abandoned for a long time, and I thought it would be better to let these magical creatures live where they belong-" Newt sighed.

"I received news that Grindelwald's subordinates, the Saints, wanted to take action against Jacob's family. I rushed there eagerly. The Saints captured Jacob and used him as a threat. Let me change my testimony and help them find the soon-to-be-born Qilin."

"At that time, I was not the only one present, the guards also rushed over. During the melee, I rescued Jacob, but the guards behaved very strangely - to be honest, I felt that they were not here to help, they Just like the saints, they want me to help them find Qilin."

Newt laughed self-deprecatingly: "Magizoologists are quite popular, aren't they?"

The target of both groups is Qilin? Sean frowned.

It’s not surprising that the Guardians want a unicorn, Sean, but why does Grindelwald want a unicorn?

The Dark Lord, who is best at breaking the rules and not following the routine, wants to use a magical animal to help him control the entire wizarding world?

To be honest, this is not Grindelwald's character at all...

Newt continued: "Then I received a secret notification from Dumbledore. By some mistake, I took Jacob and the others to find Qilin, and have been chased by two gangs until now - to be honest, if If those two groups hadn’t been keeping each other in check, I might not have been able to come back safely.”

He glanced at Sean, who was frowning, and said in a deep voice: "I know you have many questions, but I'm sorry, Sean, you should know from that night in Paris that I have been following Dumbledore's instructions."

"Professor, he must be very grateful for your trust in him." Sean continued.

Newt smiled: "Dumbledore has always been trustworthy."

"By the way, did you feel the accident caused by time travel when you were on the road?" Thinking of this, Sean asked casually.

Newt nodded: "In fact, I felt it right away that there was a problem with time. Maybe it's because I had a similar experience. This kind of accident will only occur after the wizard has carried out ultra-long distance time travel. .”

"Experience? Professor Scamander, have you experienced it?" Sean was surprised. He just asked casually, but he never thought that he would ask an experienced person.

"To be precise, everyone at that time should have experienced it. However, the accident was not so obvious, and the Ministry of Magic seemed to be able to conceal it. But I, who was very young at the time, was actually very impressed." New Te said.

"When did it happen?" Sean asked impatiently.

Although he didn't know why Sean had such a big reaction, Newt still said truthfully: "It seems that children are particularly sensitive to this kind of thing. I was only two years old at the time, and it left a deep impression on me. That was in 1899, well , probably towards the end of October.”

Sean's pupils shrank violently, 1899...

Was that the year Dumbledore and Grindelwald met? !

Sean never expected that he would learn such news from Newt just by asking casually!

Newt was still talking about what he saw at that time: "Originally, a two-year-old child should not be able to remember anything, but I can still remember it. It was a very strange feeling, just like being peaceful and quiet. Sitting there quietly basking in the sun, the calm sky suddenly seemed to be sinking. I still can’t forget that palpitating feeling, as if the world was collapsing.”

Newt's face showed a look of recollection, and even a little fear: "Obviously I was just crawling back and forth on my mother's hippogriff, but I just can't forget that feeling. Oh, yes The time of that day also disappeared, and the sky at noon quickly turned dark, disappearing for about ten hours."

Sean's pupils trembled, and an idea immediately popped into his mind: Dumbledore returned to 1899?

No... Sean frowned and discovered a problem.

Time travel accidents only happen in real time, and he subconsciously connected the recent accident.

If you look at it this way, in 1899, someone made a long-distance time travel and caused an accident!

So, is there any connection between the recent time accident and the time accident nearly a hundred years ago?

And is Dumbledore's time travel back to 1899?

It seems to be connected...

"Sean, it's time for us to go." Newt waited for him to think for a while and then put his hand on the prayer wheel.

"O-oh, okay," Sean replied.

Now there are only some conjectures that can be connected, just conjectures... Sean temporarily put down the thoughts in his mind, and also put his hand on the prayer wheel.

It felt like a portkey, as if a hook had caught Sean's navel and pulled him back quickly.

After a moment of dizziness and a feeling of flying, Sean stepped on the ground again.

What appeared in front of him were narrow streets, low-rise buildings with national characteristics, flags in green, yellow, red and other colors, and a small town stretching upward into the distance.

There is a broken bridge whose appearance is unclear at the far end. As the broken bridge extends, at the end is a mountain top hidden in the clouds and mist. There are tall buildings with a vague and ancient atmosphere on it.

This is Bhutan.

The place where the portkey was brought in seemed to be a hidden space, and it was obviously full of wizards.

Strangely, Newt, who came in with him, did not appear beside him.

Sean walked to a corner where no one was paying attention, used the transformation technique to change his appearance and physical features, and then blended into the crowd.

Do I have to go find Professor Scamander... In the crowded crowd, Sean looked around silently.

The crowd was noisy and enthusiastic. They were clearly divided into several teams, each holding a flag, above which were the candidates waving and smiling.

Among a group of particularly fanatical wizards, Sean saw the green flag and the very familiar Grindelwald on it.

"Damn old man..." Sean cursed in his heart.

He blended into Grindelwald's group and looked around.

"Brother," a young-looking wizard enthusiastically put his arm around Sean's shoulders and used a rather strange title, "I don't think I've seen you before?"

"I'm here to witness Mr. Grindelwald become chairman, and then lead us to achieve true freedom." Sean opened his mouth, with expectation and excitement on his face.

"Brother!" The man was quite satisfied with Sean's performance, and he became more enthusiastic. "You are right, Mr. Grindelwald will be the greatest leader in history."

I don’t know if he is great or not, but he definitely has the worst temper... Sean shook hands with the other person enthusiastically and thought to himself.

Where did Professor Scamander go... Sean finally got rid of the fanatical saint and looked at it more carefully.

After observing, he discovered that on the top floors of the buildings on both sides of the street, there were already many wizards wearing long black trench coats standing on the edge of the yellow roofs.

They seemed casual, but they were staring intently at every wizard who walked by.

What's even stranger is that there is another group of people who are doing the same thing and are also guarding against the former.

Sean reacted immediately to the Saints and Guardians.

Are they really planning to snatch Qilin here? Sean frowned.

Sean was mixed in the crowd and couldn't help but look around. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, a figure carrying a suitcase flashed past.

After looking around casually, Sean turned into the alley without attracting anyone's attention.

When I reached the end, I lost the figure I saw just now.

Just when he was about to turn around, an alarm bell rang in his heart!

Someone appeared silently behind him, but he didn't even notice it before that!

Sean forced himself not to feel any strangeness in his body and breathing, trying to pretend to be an ordinary wizard who accidentally turned into an alley. At the same time, his wand slipped quietly from his sleeve, and the spell was ready to go!

Unexpectedly, a smiling voice sounded behind him.

"Mr. Wallop, didn't I teach you all the tricks you played?"

Sean turned his head in surprise, a smile on his face.

"teacher!"

Grindelwald was standing up straight behind him. Strangely, the noisy and enthusiastic crowd outside didn't even look here.

"I knew you little guy would come here." Grindelwald put his hands behind his back. He was wearing an exquisite and elegant dress, and he was as happy and calm as ever.

He tilted his head towards Sean, and then walked into the next room.

Sean followed. He didn't know why, but he felt very relaxed in front of Grindelwald.

Sitting down in front of the other party without any image, Sean spread his hands: "So, Lord Dark Lord, can you reveal some of your plans to your favorite student?"

Grindelwald just touched his short beard indifferently: "If the surprise is revealed in advance, it is not a surprise. You have to know that your teacher is at an age where he likes to perform in front of others."

"Qilin?" Sean asked tentatively.

Unexpectedly, Grindelwald just raised his eyebrows lazily: "Qilin is only the first option."

"But you didn't get the Qilin either," Sean said.

Grindelwald smiled mysteriously: "Because I need the unicorn to play its role, but I don't need the unicorn."

"Can't you old men talk properly?" Sean rolled his eyes.

The old man laughed heartily: "It seems that Albus didn't tell you anything?"

Sean said "Oh" and looked at the other party in surprise: "You have indeed discussed it with Professor Dumbledore!"

Who would have thought that Grindelwald snorted coldly.

"No, these are all my own thoughts."

Sean was stunned.

Grindelwald raised his head, his gaze seemed to penetrate the stone wall and look into the distance.

"This is the first time that I can't guess Albus's thoughts... In that case, just follow my thoughts."

In your opinion, you don’t really want to start a war, do you? ! Sean was shocked.

But before he could speak, Grindelwald said to himself: "How can we find the truth about some things just by conjecture?"

"By the way, what riddles has Albus told you recently? Tell me." The low-pressure Grindelwald just now disappeared again, replaced by the calm and calm attitude before.

Sean suppressed the annoyance in his heart and recounted the recent exchange between himself and Dumbledore in a muffled voice.

To be honest, we haven't communicated much, just a few words.

After hearing this, Grindelwald laughed inexplicably: "It's really hard to see what he was thinking... Albus, what exactly do you want to see when you go back to the past..."

Upon hearing this, Sean immediately raised his head: "The person who traveled long distances in time is really Professor Dumbledore?"

"Who else can there be besides him? In this world, there are only two people who can go back to the distant past and return safely, and one of them is standing in front of you." Grindelwald said casually.

Before Sean could speak, Grindelwald threw a seal over.

"Okay, it's time for me to go back and act with those idiots. You can use this thing."

He turned around and blinked at Sean. At that moment, Sean felt that the other person looked very much like Dumbledore.

"By the way, think carefully about what Albus said to you, my dear disciple."

With that, Grindelwald melted into the stone wall behind him and disappeared without a trace.
