Chapter 418 At Scamander's House

"Welcome to America, Fish, Minerva..."

The speed of the Floo powder is so fast. Fish and the others were at the Granger house in London just now, and the next moment they appeared at the Scamander house in New York, and Newt and Tina had already been waiting by the fireplace with their families.

"...Ah, this should be Miss Granger," Newt said after greeting Fish and his mother, blinked at Hermione who came out of the fireplace last, and said: "I think you should have received my autographed book?"

"Yes, Mr. Scamander! It's nice to meet you!"

Hermione was very excited. She had a great liking for people like Newt who had high academic achievements.

"I'm also very happy to meet you, Hermione... Can I call you that? In exchange, you can call me Newt like Fish," Newt waved to Hermione with a smile, and then said a joke: "After all, there are many Scamanders here."

Because in addition to the Newt couple and their grandson Rolf, Rolf's parents were also there.

"Rolf, long time no see meow!"

(ΦωΦ)

Fish greeted his little fanboy the first time, then pulled Hermione to his side and introduced her to him openly: "Her name is Hermione Granger, and she is Fish's girlfriend meow."

"Oh ho ho... I guessed it would be like this." Newt said to Professor McGonagall with a smile: "After all, Fish may have written to me before and asked me for a signed book to give to Hermione as a birthday gift."

"Oh?" Professor McGonagall nodded and said: "So Fish gave your book to Hermione... It's quite appropriate. Hermione is a very studious child, and her usual hobby is reading."

Professor McGonagall knew that the cat gave Hermione a birthday gift, but she didn't ask what Fish gave at the time.

"Don't stand here stupidly," Tina clapped her hands and said: "Let's go to the living room together, sit down and talk slowly."

So everyone walked out under the leadership of Tina.

"Rolf, do you have a TV here?"

Fish turned his head and asked Rolf as he walked.

"TV? Of course," Rolf nodded and replied, "Earlier, the Magical Congress of America had a channel that only wizards could watch, but it was later stopped because there was too little content."

He shrugged and said with regret.

Compared with England, the wizards in America are obviously much more up-to-date, mainly because of the influence of the Purifiers.

When the magic and non-magic population in Europe just began to immigrate to North America, a group of mercenaries called Purifiers came with them.

This group of mercenaries came from wizard groups in various countries. In exchange for bounties, they even sold wizards. Later, they even developed to capture innocent Muggles (called No-Maj in America) and handed them over to the Puritans who hunted witches as wizards.

Later, the Magical Congress of America was established and began to judge those Purifiers who betrayed their kind. Some of the Scourers escaped and hid among the Muggles, and those vengeful Scourers would pass on a firm belief to their descendants: magic is real, and once wizards are discovered, they should be eliminated.

Even at the end of the 18th century, a large amount of information related to magic was exposed because of a descendant of a Scourer.

Later, in order to clean up this mess, the Magic Congress promulgated the Rappaport Law, which completely isolated wizards from Muggle society.

Although this law caused the civilian wizards in America to be completely disconnected from the Muggle society, the Magic Congress itself has been monitoring the Muggle world. It is not only to capture the descendants of the Scourers, but also to confirm whether everyone has been erased.

Later, the threat of the Scourers was gradually lifted, and the Rappaport Law was abolished, but the habit of the Magic Congress did not change. In addition, because the Rappaport Law was suppressed too harshly before, the civilian wizards rebounded a bit violently after the law was abolished, so the wizards here are much more accepting of Muggle things than in England.

Of course, why there is a TV in the homes of wizards in America is not something that Fish cares about. Hermione and Professor McGonagall are interested in this. It is enough for cats to know that there is a TV here.

"Meow~"

As soon as he walked into the living room, three cats with particularly large ears jumped out from the corner. They came to Fish and rubbed his calves intimately.

"Meow~"

(ΦωΦ)

Fish squatted down and greeted them in a friendly manner.

After a brief communication in cat language, Fish learned that they were not ordinary cats, but a magical creature called catkins, named Hobby, Mirri and Moller.

Just like when Fish was in the Forbidden Forest, in less than a minute, these three catkins followed his lead...

This made Rolf very depressed.

Because these three catkins were raised by Newt, they usually stayed in England with Newt and his wife. Rolf could only get in touch with them when he visited his grandparents during the holidays.

He wanted to build a good relationship with these three kneazles, but unfortunately, not only did they look similar to cats, their temperaments were also not much different from those of cats, so they were always quite cold to Rove.

As a result, as soon as Fish appeared today, these three catkins, who usually didn't treat people except Newt and Tina, immediately became clingy and cute.

What's more, they were not only very intimate with Fish, but also very friendly to Professor McGonagall and Hermione, who had a close relationship with Fish. But when Rolf approached them, these three snobbish catkins were as cold as ever.

"Hahaha... Hobby and the others also know who has a better relationship with Fish."

When Newt saw his grandson being humiliated, he not only didn't comfort him, but instead gloated and popularized science on the side: "Catkins are very smart animals."

There weren't many surprises in the life of the Scamander family. Except for the TV and a small number of Muggle-related items, there was not much difference between the wizards in America and those in England.

Rolf usually ate chocolate frogs and collected the pictures inside. When everyone went out, they used Floo powder or Apparition the most. Even the entertainment items were backward toys such as crackling exploding cards, wizard chess, and Gobstones.

So when Fish brought out the magic Monopoly made by the Weasley twins, it instantly attracted Rolf, and even Newt would join in from time to time to play a few games, and then Fish generously gave Rolf his set of magic Monopoly...

Anyway, he didn't play it very often.

If there is any difference, it is probably that Quidditch is not very popular here. Instead, there is a game called Quaffle.

Quaffle has eleven players on each side, but compared to Quidditch, the rules of Quaffle are much simpler.

It does not use three different balls like Quidditch. From beginning to end, there is only one ball called Quaffle - actually a Quaffle that explodes at a fixed time.

The way of playing is also very simple. Everyone rides on a flying broom and tries to throw it into a "small crucible" on the top of the court before the Quaffle explodes. Any player holding the Quaffle must withdraw from the game if the ball explodes in his hand.

Judging from the rules alone, Fich felt that Ghost Explosion was much more interesting than Quidditch. Unfortunately, to eliminate a player, he could only wait for the Ghost Explosion in their hands to explode, and could not directly attack the opponent's players, so the cat immediately lost interest after understanding the rules.

So after staying at the Scamander's house for a few days, Fich returned to his daily routine at the Granger's house - eating, drinking, playing and watching TV. Especially after finishing his summer homework, Fich felt that his cat life was complete.

The rain never stopped... I wanted to go out for a day during the New Year... It was uncomfortable.

I originally wanted to write about the different wizard lives in America, and by the way, let Fich and Hermione enhance their relationship, but after checking a lot of information, I found that there was basically no side information except for Ghost Explosion and Purger. I simply made a simple transition and went straight to Quidditch.

Thanks to Changan for the reward that year.
