Chapter 4 The so-called common sense
Just as the BAU group set off,
At the same time.
Danny Black was still serious, talking to two British wizards about the current situation of the wizarding world in the United States: "The structure of the American wizarding world is quite redundant, so ...... For example, my father was an English wizard and settled after immigrating; There were also wizards who fled Germany because of the mess caused by the first Dark Lord Grindelwald; In addition to the wizards of England and Germany, there are some other countries, Italy, France, Egypt, speaking of Egypt, those who call themselves pharaohs and priests are really not easy to mess with...... By the way, there are also many wizards who have settled here because of tourism and exploration. β
"In short, the wizarding world in the United States is very chaotic and lively, with all kinds of magic. For example, my mother, her family does not use a wand like my father, but uses a ring to control a kind of flame...... Actually, it's quite interesting, I can see more things that I haven't seen before, but it's more troublesome to manage, and no one is convinced. β
Danny's blue eyes blinked, and he seemed to be very confused by the situation, and he continued, "I was not born at that time, and then I heard from my father, and in the end, everyone decided to fight together, and who listened to whom." β
"It's too direct and rude." Lucius couldn't help but interject and commented accurately.
It's no wonder that he said this, the platinum family has never grown by force, they can play politics, they can speculate in war, and even if they want, they can manipulate the entire economy.
But only, they are not good at charging the role of the meat shield.
Danny smiled, he understood what Lucius meant, but in fact, at critical moments, it was often decided by force, such as a certain demon king in the British wizarding world.
"Well, in the end, the wizards lost both. The number of people was originally small, and in the end, the number of people was half of what they had before, and there were heavy casualties, which was meaningless. So, everyone sat down together for a meeting. β
"When I had a meeting, it was said that I had been arguing, but I couldn't get anything new from arguing back and forth, it was originally true, everyone came from different places, the education they received since childhood was different, and the customs and habits were different, so how could we talk about going together."
"Therefore, in the end, everyone simply takes the national constitution as the criterion, and everyone does what the law stipulates, anyway, everyone is equal before the law. Moreover, it is not interesting to fight around, everyone is in the United States, the past should be forgotten, everyone is American, a country. If you think about it, the number of ordinary people is simply more than 100 times that of everyone. The number of people is very small, so if you continue to make such a fuss, are you planning to exterminate together? If you have that time, you might as well go and ask for a little more privilege treatment with the U.S. government on behalf of everyone......"
Danny cleverly omitted 'how in this paragraph, the crowd fought for power, intrigue, and finally had to briefly reach a balance, and finally negotiated terms of cooperation with the U.S. government'.
He said it simply, but it gave the Platinums the illusion that they were "as if the wizards themselves were tired of the quarrel and took refuge in the Muggles."
"Merlin, you are willing to be run by Muggles." Narcissa struggled to contain her tone and shrieked accusatory.
Lucius put a hand on her shoulder, "Calm down, Sissi, this is not England, the situation is different. β
"Yes, Cousin Narcissa. Actually, I think that on the surface it is the Muggles who govern us, but on the other hand, the Muggle government is also working for us. Danny spread his hands and said, "Actually, Muggles are pretty good. The government gives a stipend to every wizard, and we use the public settings for free, except for the occasional help to do some things to maintain national security, such as me, and occasionally I have to take on the errand of the diplomatic liaison, because my father is British, and I am mainly responsible for contacting British wizards. β
"In addition to this job, I can do some of the things I love. In my formal job, I can do whatever I want, and I am very free and comfortable. β
Danny seemed to remember an interesting story from his work, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
But Lucius and Narcissa were silent in unison, and Narcissa even clenched her fists involuntarily.
"Hmm...... If you want to take refuge in government or invest in immigration in the future, you can contact me to handle it. To be honest, the benefits here are really good. Seeing that the two seemed to be greatly impacted, Danny no longer stimulated them, but explained a few words about the possibility of immigration.
After all, the U.S. government is still very 'hiring', and if it can pull a few more wizards with strange abilities over, Danny can earn a good commission...... He still wants this commission.
After his father supported all his inheritance to his cousin Sirius, and his hard-pressed own son was thrown away by his mother, he has been able to work hard and work hard to earn living expenses.
Narcissa and Lucius were still a little dazed, accustomed to the quiet corner of the British wizarding world, completely isolated from real-world life, and suddenly came into contact with wizards who were openly serving in the Muggle government...... I have to say that the mood is really complicated.
Just then, there was a knock on the door outside.
Lucius and Narcissa both frowned.
Narcissa also said angrily, "These annoying Muggles. β
It seems that the cousin and his wife's dislike for Muggles is too difficult to correct.
Danny smiled helplessly, he stood up, about to open the door, he asked as he walked, "Who?" β
"Sorry to bother, there's your delivery, sir."
"Courier?" Danny's footsteps paused, he turned his head, blue eyes, and looked at Narcissa and Lucius in surprise, "You guys didn't use owls?" β
Narcissa looked dazed, "What? β
Lucius stroked the snake staff reservedly, and quietly hinted, "No, I haven't used owls for a long time, in fact, the Malfoy family has their own golden eagle." β
"Interesting, is it in the wrong place?" Danny smiled, flicked his wrist, and opened the door.
At the same time,
A group of people from BAU had already arrived at the suspect's residence.
Morgan kicked the door open and rushed forward with a squad of policemen and guns in hand.
He quickly turned around the room and shouted outside, "Safety." β
He stuck the gun in his waist and looked around with a frown, "The suspect doesn't seem to be at home, but it seems that what we wrote on our profile is correct, three people rent together, and the gang is committing crimes." β
"They went out, did they go out temporarily, or did they plan to commit a crime?" Rosie said worriedly.
was checking the items in the house and saw the torture video taken by the suspect, Emily couldn't help but curse a scum!
Dr. Red looked at the room, thought for a moment, and seemed to have something in mind.
He quickly picked up his mobile phone and dialed Garcia, the queen of technology, "Hi, Garcia, help me check the delivery truck of the logistics company where the three suspects were before, and see where the delivery truck is driving now, you can check these streets in southeast Washington first, specifically ......"
"No problem, it doesn't bother me." Garcia quickly tapped on the keyboard, quickly hacked into the surveillance camera on the highway, and searched for the license plate number, "Found it, this car is currently parked in ...... Oh God, you would never have imagined this car parked there, it was parked in front of that amazing villa you asked me to investigate not long ago, the one at number 34. β
"Thanks, Garcia." Red hung up the phone quickly, trying to calm down but unable to hide his anxiety, "Morgan, that couple, the couple from England, they are in danger. β
"Damn it!" Morgan cursed in a low voice and ran out quickly, "I said a long time ago, don't let them leave the police station. β
"It's not your fault, Morgan." To put it mildly.
"That's right, we'll get there and save them." Huo Qi's firm opening, his stern and affirmative appearance, gave everyone great confidence.
BAU and the others hurried towards the villa.
meanwhile
The moment Danny opened the door, a huge baseball bat smashed into it.
But unfortunately, this criminal seems to have chosen the wrong victim.
No wizard would have been hit by such a botched attack even though he knew there was something unusual outside the door.
The next moment, the attacker was shocked and flew out and fell heavily to the ground.
The two accomplices behind him were startled and pulled out at the same timeβ‘β‘......
Although she has been a housewife for many years, her combat effectiveness is still strong, and Narcissa, who lives up to the reputation of the Black family, has a piece of armor to protect herself, and she has bounced all the bullets back.
Lucius, the head of the family, didn't even have time to make a move.
He was about to raise the hand of the snake staff, but after finding that Narcissa had taken the first step, he subconsciously turned around and brushed the platinum blonde hair on his forehead, looking calm and calm.
In the blink of an eye, all three criminals fell to the ground, losing the ability to resist.
"Damn policing!" Danny grumbled under his breath, he looked up, looked at Lucius and Narcissa, and made a helpless expression, "Everywhere, there will be some restless villains. β
Narcissa frowned, but Lucius sneered, "I don't think it's strange what a lowly Muggle does. β
"Brother-in-law Lucius, you are discriminating excessively...... Danny wanted to explain, but after seeing the three murderers on the ground, he diverted his attention, "Maybe I should call the police." β
He pulled out his phone and was about to dial 911, but was stopped by Narcissa.
"Don't sue me, you're going to get those damn Muggles again?" She frowned, looking incomprehensible.
"Uh...... If there are criminals, of course, you have to go to the police. Cousin, this is common sense. β
"Common sense! Common sense! Common sense! This is Muggle common sense, not wizard common sense! There are a few wizards who will turn to the Muggle police when they encounter this kind of thing, I don't care what you did before, and what the current situation of the wizarding world in the United States is! I only know that this kind of behavior is absolutely not allowed by the Black family. This is an incomparably humiliating disgrace! β
Narcissa seemed to have finally erupted in a frustration, like a snake hissing with venom, trying to vent the anger she had stored up in one go, "Although Aunt Wall's uncle was a little too harsh in kicking her uncle out of the house, I don't think she's right at all now. Like you are, get close to Muggles...... Merlin, I can't stand it. You have to remember: you are a member of the Black family, of noble blood, and these Muggles do not deserve and should not appear. β
"Even if you kill them all, you don't have to deal with the Muggle government, let alone just injure them. Well, now, one forgets everything! Throw them all in the rubbish and, from this day forward, get up like a Blake and get out of those Muggles. Come back to the UK with us! β
Danny seemed stunned by the enraged Narcissa, a little at a loss, but he didn't know how to appease her.
"Cousin Narcissa...... In fact, Mr. McCroft of the British government is already very dissatisfied with the British wizarding community......"
