Chapter 119: 119. Parasites
"Again?" Abernathy paused, listening quietly.
Yusuf Kama held his arms tightly, Leta supporting him. "I have to take you to the hospital, you really need—"
"No, I still have things to do!" Yusuf pushed Leta away and stood up unsteadily, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.
A gust of wind blew.
A stab of pain made Yusuf Kama unable to help but press his eyes tightly with his hands. His body softened, and he fell to the ground, twitching continuously.
Did the wind really blow it down?!
"Yusuf!"
"No! Don't! Wait!" an urgent voice sounded.
Leta was stunned. Why is he here? Newt is in Paris. Leta know this. Theseus told her, but why does Newt appear here, in the tomb of Père Lachaise?
Ah, that's right!
Newt is with Aurelius Dumbledore, and since Aurelius Dumbledore is here, it seems reasonable for Newt to come...
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Leta's mind.
"Help me!" Newt didn't bother to say hello to Leta and directly hugged Yusuf Kama to the end. Tina, who was following him, also came over.
"What should I do?" Tina was a little at a loss. She was an Auror, not a therapist. She had never heard of Yusuf Kama's situation and didn't know what to do.
"Hold his head, don't move!" Newt said very fast. When Tina held Yusuf's head, Newt turned around and opened his suitcase, rummaging around.
After taking some time, Newt came over and said, "His condition is too serious, and his luck is not good. Leta, and this... this gentleman, do you guys know him?"
"He is my brother..." Leta said with a complicated expression.
"Oh, your brother...what?! You have a brother?!" Newt looked at her in surprise.
"Can he still be saved?" Leta asked without answering.
"You two, is there anyone here? His life is more important!" Tina's tone was not very good.
Newt quickly handed a pair of tweezers to Leta. "Um, take it for me, thank you."
"Fluorescence..." A faint bright light lit up from the top of the wand, and Leta subconsciously put it into the hand handed over by Newt.
When Newt realized it, he was stunned for a moment. This was an old habit. At that time, they were still studying at Hogwarts. Two lonely people, two outcasts, they often gathered together. Newt studying magical beasts, and Leta is his assistant. But he didn't expect this habit to persist until now.
"He's so lucky!" Newt didn't fall into memories for too long. He stretched out his hand to open Yusuf's eyelids, and his lower eyelids were faintly beating. It didn't look like nerves but like something with its own will.
"Lucky? Get rid of him, he is so lucky that he is about to die!" Tina said angrily."No, no, no, you're really lucky. I've seen people like him who were sick because of a very rare parasite," Newt said as he took a small bottle out of the box and opened it. Then he placed the stopper under Yosef's nose so that he could inhale the scent from the bottle.
"Parasite? You mean... he's so sick because of parasites?" Leta said, surprised.
"It's a very rare parasite. There must have been water dragons wherever he used to stay. This is a magical creature a hundred times rarer than wildfire dragons. This kind of parasite is only found in water dragons... but not every water dragon. Everyone is infected with insects, so this insect is rarer than a water dragon..." Newt noticed Yusef's nostrils twitching and took the bottle back before closing it, smiling. "Isn't that lucky?"
Tina was a little speechless. "Your luck description is really... strange!"
"Of course, it's uncomfortable. Even water dragons are disturbed by these little things, let alone humans. Fortunately, he met me. Very few people know how to treat this kind of parasitic infection... Leta, come closer." He opened Yusef's eyelids, and a thin, pointed tentacle crawled out from underneath.
Yusuf's dull pupils instantly turned bloodshot.
"Maybe you don't want to see—"
"Hurry up! I can handle it!" Tina grinned, squinting her big eyes.
"Okay," Newt took the tweezers and looked into Yusef Kama's eyes. With quick eyesight and quick hands, he clamped the tentacle tightly. "Come out! Come out! Come out!"
The parasite resisted being pulled out. The harder Newt yanked, the more it struggled. If the parasite's tentacles were torn off, it would only allow the parasite to escape and burrow deeper.
"Ah!" Yusef, who was in a coma, couldn't help but feel severe pain, and every muscle in his body spasmed and twitched.
"Help me hold him down!" Newt exerted all his strength. The parasite itself wasn't very strong, but Newt had to ensure that Yusef's whole body was tight to accurately control the force.
"Come out!"
Finally, Newt won the uneven tug-of-war and forcefully pulled the parasite with several slender tentacles out of Yusef's eyes.
The tentacles of the parasite, now separated from its host, waved wildly, and the terrifying sight made the girls present feel uncomfortable.
Even Abernathy felt unpleasant and couldn't help but shrink back.
"Fortunately" Newt breathed a sigh of relief and fully stuffed the parasite into a glass bottle.
Clearly, as a magizoologist, Newt was eager to understand any cherished magical creature.
This was the first unnamed parasite with all its barbs that he had captured, and there was a high probability that he would be the one to name it in the future.
"You must...kill him." Yosuf, who was free of the parasite, quickly came to his senses, and the first sentence he uttered was about revenge.
"Kill? Kill who?" Tina unconsciously glanced at Leta and Abernathy. In her opinion, Yusef must have been associated with them before, and she immediately sought confirmation.
Being very sensitive to the word "kill" is an occupational hazard for Aurors. Murder, whether among Muggles or wizards, is a very serious crime.
"He may need a few hours to eliminate the parasite's toxins. Without the parasite's continuous supply of toxins, they will be expelled soon." Newt explained, resembling a doctor giving post-surgery instructions.
"Sorry, we still have something to do, Leta. He is your brother - I haven't asked you yet, when did you discover that you had a brother?" Newt was filled with questions.
He had known Leta since she was twelve years old and had never heard of her having a brother.
Furthermore, considering that Leta is engaged, will her brother be present?
