"Then let them go, I'll stay!"

But Rozier shook his head and refused:

"Do you think this kind of thing can be bargained? Your grandfather was once a member of our Wu Cui Party, so we let you go. As for them, they will naturally pay the price for your actions!"

Hearing Rozier's words, Christine quickly pointed at herself and said:

"I am the person in charge of this operation. I made all the plans! They are just executing my plan!"

However, no matter what Christine said, Rozier remained unmoved.

Christine finally changed her tone and threatened:

"If you let me go, I will continue to retaliate against the Wizarding Party. You know, I am now the Deputy Director of the Security Affairs Department of the Magical Congress of the United States of America!"

Hearing this, Rozier's eyes flashed with a gleam, and then he said slowly:

"Your Graves family is indeed a big family in the American wizarding world. You are so young, yet you can become the deputy director of the Security Affairs Department of the Magical Congress of the United States of America."

"But it doesn't matter. I've let you go this time, and I've given my all to your grandfather! Next time, I won't let you go so easily. But you have to be mentally prepared, because there will be another group of people who will be sent on a road of no return just like them!"

After hearing what Rozier said, Christine collapsed to the ground, completely at a loss.

Rozier walked over to her and comforted her:

"Actually, we are doing this for your own good. After all, they heard our conversation just now. If we let them go, I'm afraid it will have an adverse effect on you!"

Hearing Rosier's words, Christine smiled bitterly and said, "If so many people died outside, then, not to mention me, even our Graves family would not be able to withstand the wrath of the Magical Congress of the United States! Besides, is it difficult to prevent him from telling anyone about what happened today? The Unbreakable Vow and the Oblivion Spell can easily do that!"

Rozier waved his hand helplessly and said, "It's too troublesome. We are too lazy to bother with it! But..."

At this point, Rozier suddenly paused, and Christine seemed to wake up, and quickly stood up from the ground, showing an ugly smile, and asked: "If you have any conditions, you can put them forward!"

Rosier looked at Christine with great appreciation, and then said slowly, "However, if you join our Wizarding Party like your grandfather, it will be different! You will become one of us, and we will naturally not be afraid of trouble when we help our own people. We will even find ways to help you make further progress in the Magical Congress of the United States of America!"

Hearing Rozier's words, Christine was stunned for a moment, then said with a vigilant look:

"You, the Witch Party, have never given up on controlling the entire magical world?"

Rozier shook his head and said, "That's just a means, not an end. We have only one goal, for the greater good!"

Christine was silent for a moment, but still shook her head and said, "I still can't make up my mind. After all, I don't know if what you said is true. If my grandfather really died in your hands, then there is absolutely no way I will join you!"

After hearing Christine's answer, Rozier thought for a moment, then said, "How about this, you can join the Witch Party in name only, but we won't assign you any tasks or ask you to do anything for us. You can return to the United States and find the answers yourself! Of course, we will also assist you and work with you to find the whereabouts of your grandfather!"

After hearing Rosier's suggestion, Christine thought for a long time, then pointed at the wizards behind her and said, "If I temporarily join your wizard party, can you let them leave with me?"

Rozier opened his hands and said:

"Of course! If you think it's necessary, we can even spread the news that our Wuzhu Party suffered heavy losses. And you can go back and report that you were ambushed, but under your leadership, you broke through the siege and inflicted heavy damage on us."

"I think, with the relationship between our Wizarding Party and the Magical Congress of the United States of America, maybe you can even get a medal or something!"

After hearing what Rozier said, Christine laughed dryly twice, waved her hand and said:

"That's not necessary. Just promise to let them go!"

Rozier nodded immediately, but still added:

"But each of them has to endure the forgetfulness spell. After all, your identity and the relationship between your grandfather and us should be kept secret for the time being!"

Christine agreed with this.

Afterwards, the wizards of the Witch Party began to cast forgetfulness spells on Christine's men, and Wentworth took the opportunity to approach and asked Christine: "Why do you, the Magical Congress of the United States of America, have to kill me?"

When Christine heard what Wentworth said, she smiled awkwardly, and then explained:

"In fact, the order given to me by the Speaker is that if it is possible to bring you back to the Magical Congress of the United States, then we will give priority to bringing you back to Congress. If not, then we will consider assassination. However, I have always believed that my grandfather died at the hands of the Witch Party, so I directly ruled out the first option!"

Wentworth: "...Then why did your Speaker bring me to America?"

This time, even Christine showed a trace of confusion on her face: "We are also curious about this question! In the past few decades, the surname Grindelwald has been a taboo within the Magical Congress of the United States. Few people mention it, and some even deliberately avoid it."

"But for some reason, a few months ago, the Speaker suddenly summoned me and our director and gave us this task. Our director used the excuse of a secret operation to coordinate the cooperation of various departments, and I, the deputy director, personally led the team to carry out the mission!"

"As for the reason, even my director and I don't know. I just heard our director mention it by accident. It seems to be related to a certain prophecy!"

"prophecy?"

Hearing this answer, Wentworth and Rosier beside him looked at each other, somewhat confused.

Christine spread her hands and said helplessly, "As for what the prophecy is, or what the real reason is, I really don't know. I even suspect that the real reason may only be known by the Speaker in the entire Congress! After all, we Graves are also a big family, and there are very few things in Congress that can be hidden from us!"

Hearing this, Rosier nodded thoughtfully and said, "MACUSA, I will go back later."
