As the country with the most guns in the world, the United States accounts for 4.4% of the world's population and directly contributes 40% of the world's civilian-owned guns.
Therefore, the proliferation of guns is an absolute chronic disease of the American Muggle world.
In the future, there will even be so-called shared guns. Just scan the gun and you can rent a semi-automatic rifle. If your Amazon credit score is more than 700, you can get a deposit free of charge.
Whether you are traveling independently, shopping for zero yuan, or going to the bank to withdraw money...it is extremely convenient.
But completely opposite to the Muggle world, the MACUSA has extremely strict control over wands, which seems to go to the other extreme.
Any wizard going to the United States must apply for a wand license. If you have a criminal record, it is impossible to apply successfully.
Back then, when Newt escorted a thunderbird to New York, his application for a wand license failed. The reason was simple. It clearly stated on his file... that he was expelled from Hogwarts.
Newt, who had no license and illegally possessed dangerous magical creatures, met the "warm-hearted" Tina in New York. He never failed, and was captured by Tina...
The dual meaning of mental and physical!
Not only foreign wizards, but also the control of wands by the American wizarding community starts from the doll.
Underage wizards in other countries are prohibited from casting spells outside of school during holidays, but their wands will not be confiscated. At most, the Ministry of Magic uses trace wires for monitoring.
The United States is even more straightforward and simply asks students to leave their magic wands in school during the holidays.
Even the little wizard's first wand is not bought in the store by himself, but is distributed when he arrives at Yinfamouni Magic School and is divided into different schools.
Of course, with the abolition of "Rappaport's Law", the rule of leaving wands in school has completely disappeared, but in comparison, it is still very strict.
Therefore, in the United States, where it is easier to get guns than wands, it is really not a big problem for little wizards to carry guns to protect themselves... I can only say that the United States has its own national conditions.
Luofu didn't pay too much attention. He played with the small pistol for a while, and was ready to listen to Margery's suggestion and go to the wild with her one day to practice marksmanship.
These days, dual cultivation of magic and marksmanship is the right way. If you want to be strong in martial arts, you must have Avatar in your left hand and RPG in your right hand. This is the fighting form of a modern wizard.
At this time, the pickup truck had already entered the famous Broadway Avenue and stopped not far from a tall building.
After getting out of the car, Rove looked at the Gothic-style... Woolworth Building.
The Woolworth Building was built in 1913. The main building has 30 floors, and a 30-story narrow tower was built on top of the main building... Before the completion of the Chrysler Building, it was the tallest building in the world.
For wizards, the Woolworth Building is also quite famous because the Magical Congress of the United States of America is also located here.
Rolf was about to walk towards the building, but turned around and found that Margaery hadn't moved. The girl was taking out a white note from her pocket and clipped it to the wiper of the pickup truck.
"What is this?" the boy asked strangely.
"A ticket for No-Majs." Margery said with a smile: "There is a time limit for parking here. If you stay too long, you will be ticketed by the No-Maj traffic police."
"Is this still allowed?" Luo Fu said with a surprised look on his face: "Isn't there time on the ticket?"
"It's okay, there is magic on the ticket and it will automatically change the time according to the date." Margery said proudly:
"There's also a confusion spell I cast on it. When they get close, they'll think they've had a ticket."
"..."
"Sister, I'm smart!" Margaery raised her pretty eyebrows and said, "I'm going to mass-produce it and sell it to other wizards. Isn't it very exciting?"
Luofu really had to squint his eyes and think seriously. He shook his head and said:
"It sounds very promising, but after all, there are only a few wizards using cars, and the potential market is too small."
"You don't have to worry about this, my little Rover."
Margery put her arm around Rolf's shoulder and squeezed it gently.
He pinched the young man's tender face and said with a smile: "I only lack the start-up capital of two thousand Zhuoguo. You sponsored me some and made us two brothers and sisters... seventy-three cents."
"..."
Unlike the UK, the name of the magic currency used in the United States is the drog... Two drogs can be exchanged for one gold galleons.
Two thousand Zhuoguo is one thousand Galleons. To the current Luo Fu, it is not a big sum, but it is not a small amount of money that can be squandered casually.
Margery obviously had no intention of spending time producing that thing. She just proposed a project and then drew a big pie, hoping to defraud investors of their money!
Whoever believes her is a troll!
"If I don't have money, I won't invest in you even if I have money!" Luofu refused ruthlessly: "I want to report you for evading the ticket!"
"What do you know!" Margaret snorted:
"Wizards have a grudge against the American Muggle government, and the purgers cooperate with them and have been hunting wizards... Every time I pay a fine, it may become a bullet fired by the Muggle army on wizards!"
"..." What he said made sense, and Luo Fe was speechless.
The two of them walked towards the Woolworth Building noisily. There were guards standing at the door. One of them, wearing a cloak-like uniform, looked out of place with Muggles.
When the wizard guard saw Margaery, although he was surprised by her dressing up in a Muggle police uniform, he immediately opened the door.
He knew this witch. After all, she was so beautiful that it was difficult to forget her.
But this was the first time he saw a witch walking intimately with a boy. It seemed that many single men at the Magic Congress would be unable to sleep in discomfort tonight.
The wizard guard looked at the young man in front of him, and soon found that their wrists were cuffed together... Hey, young people today are really good at playing.
Luo Fu and Margery stepped through the revolving door and entered the building.
What comes into view is not the Woolworth Hall, but... the Magical Congress Hall of the United States of America.
This is a luxurious rectangular hall. The west wall has a total of 17 vaulted floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The east wall is correspondingly inlaid with 17 large glass mirrors made of 483 lenses.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Standing in the center of the hall, people can appreciate the luxuriously decorated Congress Hall from different angles through the mirror.
On the vaulted ceiling, there is also a huge oil painting of great artistic value, which depicts the establishment of the Magical Congress and the first twelve Aurors.
In the center of the hall, there is also a huge turntable located high up with many gears and disks, with words engraved on the disk:
Magic exposure threat level.
The pointer of the turntable points to "slight".
Behind the turntable hangs a huge portrait of a white-haired old man who seems to be older than Dumbledore, with his face covered with age spots:
Anderson D. Fisher
Current President of the Magic Congress.
Anderson D. Fisher is the oldest president in the history of MACUSA.
In the past half century, he ran for chairman three times. He seized this last opportunity five years ago and was successfully elected as the chairman of the National Assembly at the age of 95.
However, Anderson, who is now 100 years old, is in very poor health and is suspected of suffering from symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.
Many wizards doubt whether he can survive the last two years of his term.
Owls were flying and circling in the hall, a group of wizards were queuing up at the front desk, and many staff were waiting to receive them.
Margery and Rolf walked straight to the elevator. The elevator door opened, and there was a goblin waiter standing inside.
"Auror office." Margaery said softly.
"Yes, Miss Kowalski." The goblin used a long stick with claws to poke the elevator button above his head.
The elevator rose smoothly and silently to the top floor. The elevator shaft began to narrow, and several thick pillars shrank into a solid vertical passage.
When the door opened, Rolf and Margaery walked out, walked along the aisle, and stopped in front of a door with a brass nameplate on it:
Auror office!
