Chapter 405

There will be no suspense about the outcome of this hearing, which everyone knows, but since there is such a big position, what to do Fudge, the minister who was pushed to the front of the stage, still has to do.

"You received an official warning from the Ministry of Magic three years ago for illegal use of magic, didn't you?" Fudge looked at Harry condescendingly. He felt that Harry was a bit like himself, both of whom were held in the hands of others and had no choice.

"Yes, but—"

"You know you're in a Muggle-dense place?"

Yes, but—"

"You know exactly there was a Muggle nearby?"

"Yes," Harry said annoyedly, "but I use magic only because we-"

"Kids. Fudge interrupted Harry again as he tried to defend himself.

"I remember Hogwarts once held a hearing for Hagrid's teaching accident, you should be able to understand the trial, right?" Fudge looked down at Harry, "You'd better keep your mouth shut when you're not allowed to defend yourself." "

At this time, the very serious-looking witch next to Fudge asked Harry, "Did you really release a Patronus? a complete Patronus?"

"Yes. Harry replied honestly.

"A carnal patronus?" the witch was visibly unconvinced.

"Yes. Harry felt irritated and a little desperate, "It's a ......"

Harry suddenly remembered that Solim had told them before that it was best not to spread his Patronus form everywhere, and he quickly shut his mouth.

"What?" the witch leaned forward slightly.

"Nothing. Harry hesitated, "I was told before that the Patronus form was best not to ramble around......"

"This is the Wizengamot. Suddenly, a voice rang out that annoyed Harry from the bottom of his heart, and he was sure he hadn't heard it.

Umbridge's face emerged from the shadows, looking at Harry with a smirk.

"The wizards present are all veterans of the Wizengamot. She said again, "We need to know everything related to this case." "

"Okay......" Harry felt he had no choice, "it's a stag......"

"Have you ever conjured a Patronus before?" said the solemn-looking witch, "By the way, my niece also attends Hogwarts, and her name is Susan, Susan. Burns. "

Harry immediately thought of the Hufflepuff girl, and although Harry and her had little to do with each other, the students in the same year knew each other more or less.

"No, that was the first time I conjured a full Patronus. Harry gathered his thoughts and replied honestly.

"For the first time?" Miss Bones was a little puzzled, "I guess the Patronus Charm is not Hogwarts teaching, where did you get the information about this charm, and who taught you?"

Seeing Harry's hesitation, Umbridge said in her greasy voice, "Answer the question!

"It's Solim. Harry said that if he could return to Hogwarts, he would apologize to Solim, and he even involved him at the hearing.

"Solim, what do you mean—"

"Solim. Selwyn. Harry said, "I don't remember his full name, it's a bit long. "

"Solim. Olg. Bashir. Selwyn. Dumbledore's voice rang out, "That's his full name, if Madam Deputy Minister must know." "

Suddenly, there was a lot of playful attention in the room, and Ms. Umbridge was focused. They all knew that Umbridge had been a woman who had touted her Selwyn ancestry when she first joined the Ministry, but that she had since fallen out. As long as anyone with a brain understands that this woman is lying.

"You mean that your classmates taught you this spell?" Miss Bones asked Harry in a businesslike tone, unfazed.

"Uh......" Harry didn't know what to say for a moment, "Solim did teach me the spell, but I could only release some silver mist when I was at school, and never a full Patronus......"

"Okay, we can skip that. Fudge shook his head helplessly.

"Well, Minister, I'm just surprised that a young wizard who is still a minor can cast the Patronus Charm. "It's remarkable." "

"I don't think it's a question of how great magic is. Umbridge knew that Fudge was ambiguous in some ways, and she decided to play herself.

"Actually, I think the bigger the better, because that kid did it in front of a Muggle!

Many of the wizards present nodded in agreement.

"I'm doing it because of the Dementors!" Harry was a little angry, "It's in the alley!

Harry thought that people would talk to each other again, but there was silence all around, and it seemed even more silent than before.

"Dementors?" said Ms. Bones after a while, her two thick eyebrows raised high, and her monocle seemed to be about to slip down, "What do you mean by that, child?"

Only a handful of the wizards present knew the truth of the matter, and many more knew nothing.

"Ah," Umbridge said again, letting out an obnoxious sneer from his lips, as he looked at the Wizengamot members in front of and around, as if hoping they would understand the joke too.

"yes, yes, I knew we'd hear like that. "

"The Dementors are in Little Whinging?" said Ms. Bones, with a tone of surprise in her voice, "I don't understand—"

The gaze behind her lenses glanced covertly at Dumbledore below.

"Don't you understand, Amelia?" said Umbridge mockingly, "let me explain. He had gone to great lengths to discover that Dementors could be a brilliant excuse, and it was wonderful. Muggles can't see Dementors, don't they, kid? very clever, very clever, so there are no witnesses, just your side?"

"I didn't lie!" Harry exclaimed, his voice drowning out the resounding of the Judgment Bench, "two, one caught me, the other caught my cousin!"

"Enough, enough!" Umbridge said, with a very haughty look on his face, "I'm sorry I interrupted him, I'm sure it's a well-rehearsed lie—"

"Mr. Minister, I think we can proceed to a vote now. Umbridge pressured Fudge, "We can't waste all our time on a lie." "

Dumbledore cleared his throat. The Wizengamot was quiet again.

"Actually, we have a witness to prove that the Dementors did appear in that alley," he said, "and I mean except for Dudley Desley." "
