Chapter 709
"That should be pretty much it. Solim stood in front of the mirror and said to Elena, who was standing behind him, "What do you think?
"Don't you have a decent garment?" Elena didn't comment on Solim's Transfiguration,
Since they came here wearing wizarding robes, which was clearly not suitable for walking on Muggle-heavy streets, some changes were needed. Fortunately, Solim's transfiguration is excellent, and the wizard robe and trench coat are still relatively similar in appearance, so it didn't take much effort.
"That's why I'm going out to buy it. As if he hadn't heard Elena's sarcasm, Solim pulled out his wand and conjured a forward hat out of thin air and put it on his head.
"Looks so much better. Solim flicked the brim of his hat, "Alright, let's go for a walk." You don't want to stay here all day, do you?"
Elena really didn't want to stay in this place, but she didn't want to go out with Solim either, but thinking that even if she stayed here, she would have to sit, so she had to compromise - at least it was better to go out for a walk than to sit dry.
"Come back early and be vigilant. Carlos originally wanted to send someone to follow Solim, but when he saw Elena following him, he thought about it.
The Woolworth Building is one of New York's landmarks, and it's a special place, it's home to the Magical Congress of the United States, and the entrance is shared with Muggles—just on the left and right.
Solim and Elena were huddled in the elevator with a host of Muggles.
"Those obnoxious guys are here again. "
In the chaotic elevator, the conversation between the two people aroused Solim's interest.
"yes, it's crowded there every once in a while. The editor-in-chief is interested in them and is ready to report on them. "
"Report on those neurotics?"
"Yes, the errand is now on my head. "
"Who would believe those reports? It's crazy, and wizards......"
Ding——
When the elevator reached the first floor, people crowded out of the elevator in a mess. Solim followed the man just now.
"Where are you going?" asked Elena, beside Solim.
"Go see those 'neuropaths'. "
Elena naturally knew what Solim's "neurosis" meant.
"Then you're wasting your time. "
As a native, Elena knows a lot about the so-called "psychos", a group of people who are completely sick and twisted in their hearts, and unless they want to get into trouble, no wizard will come near them on their own initiative - that would be a complete waste of time.
"As a native American, you're probably used to it. But you have to understand that on our side, this kind of 'neurosis' is rare. Solim kept an eye on the newspaper clerk to keep him from disappearing from his sight.
When he came to the door, Solim also took a special look to the right, there was a small door, if nothing else, it was the entrance to the Magic Congress, and there were two guards in woolen coats standing in front of the door. He was nervously staring at every passerby, lest some dizzy Muggles go to the wrong door.
"By the way, I'll ask you something. Solim said to Elena, "What kind of 'wand permit' do you have, and how long does it take?"
"It depends. "
"Depends on the situation?"
"If you're unfortunate enough to offend somebody who happens to have someone working there, you're going to be slow to get approval – our school has one this year, and he hasn't even gotten that certificate yet. "
Solim raised an eyebrow, but he didn't think that would happen to Selwyn himself.
Following the newspaper clerk in front of him across the street, Solim squeezed to the periphery of the crowd with an impatient Elena on his face.
"Down with the wizard!"
"People need to know the truth!"
......
"These are all messy slogans. Solim looked speechlessly at the slogans held up by a few half-sized children on the steps.
"You had to come. "
......
"Someone is covering everything! and they are running rampant in our city!"
In the middle of the stairs stood an old-fashioned-looking woman, dressed in a gray tweed coat, an ugly beanie, and even a pair of finger-baring woolen gloves.
"We've invented cars, we've built tall buildings, we've even built subways, but they're not for those goddamn wizards! they're secretly moving around us—"
The woman opened her arms and said loudly to the audience in front of her, "The darkness is hidden in the shadow of the light...... My dear friends, we at Fourth Salem will work to catch these wizards who are hiding around us and give a good environment to all citizens......"
"Join us, and we will fight side by side, for our tomorrow, for our future generations—"
It's interesting......
Of course, Solim didn't think the woman's words were interesting, but that her actions were interesting.
What is this place?
Across the street is the Magic Congress, and this woman would choose to hold an anti-wizarding speech in such a place, if not by coincidence, then this woman really knows some things about the wizarding world.
"Have you heard enough?" Elena was a little impatient.
"Alright, let's go. Solim complied with her request, "My curiosity was met anyway. "
After moving away from the crowd, Solim said, "'Fourth Solim', is there such a frequent anti-wizarding movement on your side?"
Since it is called the "fourth", then there are firsts and seconds...... The first Salem campaign was the one that led to the Salem Wizarding Case, and the second was related to Grindelwald, when Cresden appeared in the so-called "Second Salem". Bayerben, an unprecedented silent man, whose silence was extremely powerful, caused great damage to New York, and the Magical Congress of the United States at that time even asked for the help of the International Federation of Wizards in order to eliminate the influence.
That's what Solim knew, and the third and current ones weren't what he knew.
"As long as those people are useful, there will be people who will keep them. Elena didn't say much, but the message was a bit bigger.
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Solim looked at the sign in the nearby storefront and saw that there was nothing he needed, and then said to Elena, "Let's find a place to sell clothes." "
But Solim found Elena indifferent.
"How?"
"I'm not familiar with this place. "Elena is a bit distracted.
"Clam?" said Solim was surprised.
"You're not ......"
"I'm American, but that doesn't mean I'm going to come often...... No-Maji place. Elena suddenly lowered her voice.
"Oh. Got it. Solim nodded, accepting the statement.
For a young lady from a big family like Elena, her family education is generally very strict. And wizards on the American side are particularly repulsive to Muggles, which is easy to say if ordinary people say, but for someone from a big family like Elena, it is a bit difficult for her to be familiar with Muggles.
