After staying for a period of time, the dementors finally left without finding anything.

Sirius also took advantage of this time to recover a lot of his strength.

Bang bang bang...

When he got up, he found a bottle under his belly, which contained only one mouthful of filthy potion.

Azkaban does not allow prisoners to carry this thing. For some reason, he suddenly had an instinctive intuition that this potion might be important;

Relying on this intuition, he held the potion bottle in his mouth, smoothed the crater, and plunged into the sea water, drifting farther and farther along the ocean current. Azkaban behind him became increasingly blurry.

A shrill alarm sounded behind him. Sirius bit the potion bottle tightly, only maintaining one belief in his mind...

He's at Hogwarts!

He's at Hogwarts!

Chapter 75 Please give me a pen name!

What was placed in front of Luna was a mirror with a simple and elegant frame, engraved with various animal images with smooth lines.

Xenophilius's face was reflected in the new and clear mirror, "Baby, why don't you go out for a walk?"

There was a lot of news in England during this time, and Xenophilius had to be busy and was unable to accompany Vizette and Luna to New York.

So he bought a pair of double-sided mirrors, which are extremely magical magic mirrors that are not too complicated to use;

When both parties are holding a double-way mirror, call each other's name into the double-way mirror. If the other party is also holding a mirror, the other party will appear in the mirror.

Double-sided mirrors are very expensive, with a pair of double-sided mirrors costing five hundred galleons;

In addition, the double-sided mirror itself is relatively fragile. If not properly stored, it may break into several pieces after a lot of bumps;

It was only now that "The Quibbler" was starting to grow in popularity that Xenophilius took out his spare money and gritted his teeth to buy such a pair of double-sided mirrors.

"Yes... When we first arrived in New York yesterday, Vizette accompanied me to buy a lot of things." Luna's cheeks were as red as a ripe red apple;

There was a cauldron beside her, and the potion in the cauldron was undulating slightly and bubbling.

"I bought a lot of things..." Xenophilius tilted his head slightly, as if he heard the gurgling sound in the crucible, "Baby... you are not brewing the potion, are you?"

Luna carefully swung the double-sided mirror so that Xenophilius could see the crucible clearly, "Yes! Dad is so good, he guessed it right in one go!"

"Hehe..." Hearing Luna's compliment, Xenophilius grinned naturally, "That's not true! Dad has always been so awesome!"

But he quickly reacted and said quickly: "Baby! Don't imitate Weizet, don't plunge into the book and never get out! It's rare to come to a new place, so you have to visit more."

There was a bit of dissatisfaction between his eyebrows, "What's going on with Vizette? I don't know how to plan a travel route like me..."

"Where has he been? Why did he let you stay in the hotel to brew the potion? I remember that New York is quite prosperous and there should be many interesting places."

"There is a plan..." Luna's fingers passed over the glass bottles, and her round nails like shells showed a crystal luster.

She picked up one of the glass bottles, poured the beetle eyes inside onto a small spoon, and shook it into the crucible little by little.

"But he has to attend the meeting first, so he has to wait for Professor McGonagall's notification and register his identity first. This will make it easier to attend the meeting at that time."

"After the meeting is over, he plans to take me to visit other states...see thunderbirds, cat leopards, White River Monster...many, many magical animals!"

"Fantastic beasts..." Xenophilius lowered his head slightly, flipping through the book calmly, looking for relevant content with the corner of his eye, "I remember... there should be magical animals around New York, right?"

"Yes! Dad, you know everything!" Luna said with a crooked smile, slowly stirring the crucible, "There are long-horned water snakes around New York. Am I not making preparations?"

Xenophilius was a little confused, "Preparing?"

Luna nodded and tapped the crucible lightly with a spoon, "This is what Mr. Firenze told me...a magic potion that can attract all kinds of magical animals..."

"When Weizet went shopping with me yesterday, he accompanied me to buy these materials. They will also come in handy when we go to other states to look for magical animals!"

"That's good!" Xenophilius nodded and breathed out gently, "Baby, daddy is not with you, remember to take care of yourself."

"Okay!" Luna nodded heavily, "Dad, you have to take care of yourself too, and don't stay up late at night!"

"Of course! I sleep well at night now! But I can't sleep well with that old gummy hehehehehe!" Xenophilius couldn't help but grin.

"Ahem!" He coughed sternly, "Baby, daddy is going to work first. Remember to pay attention to safety when brewing the potion. Don't get hurt!"

"Yeah! See you tonight, dad!"

"See you tonight!"

----------------------------------------

Xenophilius carefully picked up the double-sided mirror and placed it on the bottom shelf of the drawer;

A soft cushion is stuffed inside to maximize the protection of the double-sided mirror.

Boom, boom, boom!

There was a knock on the door, and Xenophilius pushed the drawer in, "Please come in!"

Rita Skeeter walked into the editor-in-chief's office and put a manuscript on the table. "Mr. Lovegood, I have finished the manuscript you asked for."

She sighed deeply. If it weren't for Vizet's request, she felt that she would never have any contact with Xenophilius in her life, let alone write for The Quibbler.

"Hmm..." Xenophilius hummed and picked up the manuscript to read it carefully. "The wail of the poor, Sirius really ran away by himself..."

"Ms. Skeeter, I have changed my mind about you. It seems that you are also very good at writing articles that reveal the truth! You don't need to revise them, you can publish them directly."

He noticed another problem, "You need to use a pen name here...right? Are you sure you want to publish it like this?"

"Of course!" Rita Skeeter nodded repeatedly, and the amplitude of her nods was so large that her delicate curls were trembling. "You must use a pen name for me, never use your real name! Never use it!"

Since she wrote such an article, she naturally didn't want to sign her real name. Using a pen name was her means of self-deception.

As long as a pseudonym is used, it will not be considered as an article written by oneself, nor will it be a stain on the journalist's career.

The main reason is that the article Xenophilius asked her to write was too outrageous;

Xenophilius actually swore that Sirius could not have committed those crimes, and everything was a conspiracy of Cornelius Fudge;

In order to pave the way for the position of minister, Cornelius Fudge deliberately did not interrogate Sirius and sent him directly to Azkaban;

Now, in order to save the precarious position of minister, Cornelius Fudge deliberately let Sirius go, and then instigated those Dementors to act secretly to clean up those who might threaten his position as minister;

This is why the title is "The Lament of the Poor".

Because Xenophilius felt that Sirius was used from beginning to end and became a tool for Cornelius Fudge to play with power.

"Oh... okay..." Xenophilius nodded, "Then use your pen name..."

"To be honest..." he murmured, "The old candy's conspiracy will definitely not succeed! When the truth comes out later, this report will..."

"Don't use my real name! Just use a pseudonym!" Rita Skeeter growled, with a bit of anger in her tone.

"Okay..." Xenophilius shrugged, "Since you insist so much..."

Chapter 76 Central Park Travel Notes

If New York, like a steel forest, is regarded as a watch strap, then Central Park in the center of Manhattan is like the dial that maintains the entire city;

Central Park is famous for its quiet and beautiful scenery, reminding people who are constantly busy like a "second hand" to remember to stop occasionally and enjoy the beauty of life.

It is summer vacation now, and there are many tourists in Central Park. Some people are picnicking on the grass, some are flying kites, and children are running and playing;

No matter where you go, you can seem to see tourists playing and full of laughter.

Professor McGonagall needs to go to the Magic Congress first to deal with some trivial matters. After she is done, she will notify Vizet and the others to come.

Taking advantage of the afternoon sun, Vizet and Luna walked side by side on a path in Central Park.

The trees in Central Park are lush, and there is no summer heat on the path;

Luna put her hands behind her back and walked in the sunlight through the branches and leaves. Her movements were as light and agile as dancing, and every step was on the golden mottled.

Vizet followed behind slowly, and whenever he came to a place without branches to block the sun, he handed out the umbrella in his hand to block the sun for Luna.

Although the environment was generally cool, Luna still sweated a lot, and the sweat flowed down the hair sticking to her snow-white neck.

She turned around and exhaled softly, "You must be tired like this, right? It's only a short distance, there's no need to hold the umbrella like this!"

"It's okay." Vizette shook his head gently, took out a unicorn tail hair handkerchief, and gently touched Luna's cheek.

He looked around, then opened the hand holding the umbrella, and the umbrella remained in place, with no intention of falling to the ground.

Before Dumbledore "directed and acted" himself, and was "invited" out of Hogwarts by the school board, he used himself as a guarantee to apply for Vizette's qualification to cast spells outside the school;

Under normal circumstances, as long as Vizette did not harm Muggles and did not let Muggles notice the existence of magic, he could use magic no matter which country he was in.

"Are we going to... the wizard's Central Park?" Luna squinted slightly, took a few steps forward, and asked Vizette to help wipe the sweat off her cheeks.

"Yes... Let's go see the long-horned water snake first." Vizette looked around and pointed in one direction, saying, "Go this way!"

...

Vizette and Luna turned into a path, and a tree next to the path had words on it: Welcome.

The two looked around and made sure no one was following them before they ran into the tree and appeared in a quiet forest.

The forest was surrounded by green trees and birdsong. The sun shone through the gaps between the leaves and sprinkled on the ground, adding a bit of poetry to the mottled light and shadow.

Not far away, the two saw a sign on the side of the road.
