Chapter 265: The Mischievous Norbert’s Adventure
"Who's that..."
In the room, Tina was setting down a tray of freshly baked cookies on the table.
"It's Kyle," Newt said with a smile.
Tina looked up, a bit surprised; she'd been expecting an old friend.
"Did you forget something?" she asked, handing Kyle the tray of cookies. "You could have just written a letter and asked us to deliver it. Why make another trip? Besides, Hogwarts starts tomorrow, doesn't it?"
Not long after returning from Paris, Kyle had already visited Newt and Tina once, staying for two days. This time, aside from not having much else to do, he came because Fawkes had delivered his suitcases early. He'd seized the chance to get his "Phoenix Experience Card" and thought he could retrieve Norbert and the Troll ahead of schedule, so he wouldn't have to wait until the Christmas holidays. Kyle just hadn't expected Phoenix travel to be so intense... If he'd known, he would've waited until the holidays for sure.
Without a word, Kyle set his suitcase down on the wooden shelf next to him. Newt raised an eyebrow, quickly grasping the situation, and gave an almost imperceptible nod as he glanced at Fawkes perched on Kyle's shoulder.
"Oh... isn't that a Phoenix?" Tina noticed Fawkes and walked over in surprise. "Is Dumbledore here too? Why don't you invite him in?"
"No, he should still be in Austria at this time," Newt replied, shaking his head. "It's just Kyle. Fawkes brought him here."
