Whether it was Newt Scamander, who brought a bunch of Magical creature, or Gellert Grindelwald, who escaped from the Magical Congress, they both brought many bad memories to the New York Wizards.

Most New York Wizards disliked Europe wizards, especially Liam Graves, whose family elders had been persecuted.

In Liam Graves's view, these Europe wizards were troublemakers who were always up to something big... just like now.

Graves frowned. "You didn't notify the Magical Congress, but instead took it upon yourself to arrest them. Isn't that against the rules?"

With a smile, Wizet countered, "Mr. Lucius Malfoy is being held here, and his family wants to visit him but hasn't been granted permission... Is that in accordance with the rules?"

Graves immediately said, "That's because it involves a murder case. As the prime suspect, he needs to avoid contact with too many people."

"Yes, so we arrested him..." Wizet Graves, "Will this clear Mr. Lucius Malfoy of suspicion and get him released?"

Graves frowned even more deeply. He felt he had been caught in a trap by this rebuttal, so he decided to change the subject.

"Mr. Akingbade ...as long as there is no Anti-Statute of Secrecy, according to the provisions of the Statute of Secrecy ... the International Confederation of Wizards is not allowed to interfere in other countries...am I right?"

Akinbade glanced at Wizet and, noticing Wizet's still calm expression, felt relieved. "Yes, you're right."

Graves noticed Akinbade's expression, which he interpreted as tacit approval, and refocused his attention on Wizet.

He raised his voice and demanded, "Mr. Lovegood, you are England wizard. You're also a representative at the seminar over there. Have you considered what such a rash action... might mean?"

The nature of the problem has changed, and the Magical Congress has become the passive party.

Once the matter is fully defined, it will become a diplomatic incident, and the Magical Congress will inevitably lose face.

"What did I do?" Wizet smiled slightly, not responding much to Graves's questioning, and not taking the big accusation of "interfering in other countries' affairs and affecting diplomacy".

"Mr. Graves, you can actually take a look for yourself at these gentlemen who brought Mr. Appaloosa along... what kind of wizards are they?"

Wizet's voice remained unchanged, causing Graves to frown.

Although the wizard in front of me was young, he was very resilient and did not lose his composure at all because of his questioning.

Graves felt a throbbing in his temples; these Europe wizards were really annoying!

Seeing the silent Graves, Wizet continued, "Mr. Graves, the Magical Congress should prioritize security..."

"The biggest problem now comes from the lurking Werewolf and the Appaloosa Family's motives. That's what you should be concerned about."

"Can I take it that way?" Graves asked, his face grim, enunciating each word clearly, "The England wizards intend to... teach me how to do things?"

The young wizard in front of him reacted so quickly that he even had the feeling that "this person may have planned this all along."

"It seems a bit too much of a fuss..."

Just as the atmosphere became even more tense, a deep voice came from behind the guards.

A middle-aged wizard walked slowly past the guards to Babajide Akingbade.

During this process, the middle-aged wizard slightly turned his head and glanced at the Triltopus Family.

The middle-aged wizard was slightly plump, with a small mustache under his nose, and looked a lot like Jacob Kowalski from "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".

He shook hands with Babajide Akingbade, looked at the Wizet and the Triltopus Family, and gave a helpless smile.

"Mr. Akingbade, although you and I had been informed beforehand, I truly did not expect so many people to show up..."

"If this were the Magical Congress from sixty or seventy years ago, they would probably take action first, arrest you, and then be willing to have a proper talk with you."

"But times have changed. It's a relatively peaceful era now." Akinbade smiled slightly as he introduced Wizet to the middle-aged wizard.

"This is Mr. Vizet Lovegood, a rising star at the Animagus International Symposium, who has a very deep understanding of Animagus."

He then introduced the middle-aged wizard to Wizet, "Mr. Jacob Kowalski, the current Head of the International Magical Cooperation Department."

Wizet gave the middle-aged wizard a deep look. "Mr. Kowalski, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

"Mr. Lovegood ... Hogwarts is still as excellent as ever." Jacob nodded. "Although I graduated from Ilvermorny, I still longed for Hogwarts ..."

"My grandfather named me the same as him. Actually, he originally planned to send me to Hogwarts... but my grandmother found out and they had a big fight, so I ended up in Ilvermorny."

"Actually, whether it's Hogwarts or Ilvermorny, my grandparents both wanted me to master magic better, and they were doing it for my own good... Isn't that just like the situation now?"

"With so much evidence presented, involving not only the Appaloosa Family but also wizards from other countries, we should investigate this matter thoroughly. It's for everyone's benefit, isn't it?"

"You're actually helping them?" Graves asked incredulously. "Get your stance straight!"

"There's still room for maneuver." Jacob's expression remained unchanged, still bearing his honest demeanor. "I believe Mr. Lovegood ... probably doesn't want to escalate things, right?"

He glanced at the revolving door again. "Liam, reporters have already appeared. If we continue this standoff, we might escalate the situation."

"My suggestion is...we could move to the Pentagonal Chamber, where we can have a proper talk and put everything out in the open. Wouldn't that be better?"

"Mr. Kowalski, we can actually talk things out right here." Wizet stepped forward, her voice softening considerably. "Like I said at the beginning..."

"My demands are: the release of Mr. Lucius Malfoy, and secondly, that the Magical Congress fulfill its responsibility and begin a city-wide manhunt for Werewolf..."

"The full moon is tonight. If the Magical Congress handles it properly, it can actually generate positive publicity. Your actions are even faster than that big clock. Isn't that a good thing?"

"Jacob! Listen to his tone!" Graves was clearly angry. "He's telling me how to do things! He's telling the Magical Congress how to do things!"

Click... Click...

As Jacob said, the standoff at the Magical Congress also attracted reporters from the magic newspapers.

Wizet concluded by saying, "I'm just a student here for academic exchange... I just want a better academic environment, that's all."

Jacob chimed in, "There's no need to make a big fuss... Mr. Lovegood's suggestion is actually quite good."

Perhaps the flash of the camera had given Graves a sudden inspiration, for he let out a long sigh of relief. "Alright! Let's do it this way!"
