Chapter 64

The door of Gringotts slowly opened.

A group of goblins saw Scrimgeour as if they had seen a relative, and they almost cried.

He exaggerated what Argus had just done.

He was completely unaware of the increasingly dangerous eyes of the people around him.

Several quick-reacting Aurors had learned about the incident from other people while the two sides were confronting each other.

He hurried to Scrimgeour and explained the whole story in detail.

He was more objective, and did not put all the blame on Argus like the goblins did.

He did not deliberately exaggerate Argus's tall image, but just narrated the incident.

After listening to the story, Scrimgeour did not let everyone leave directly. His fierce eyes were still fixed on Argus.

Judging from the course of events, there was nothing wrong with what Argus did, and there was nothing to doubt.

But his keen intuition as an Auror told him that this matter was closely related to the Saints!

"You guys wait here and keep an eye on them. I'll take another team in to have a look."

Scrimgeour did not forget the business. After giving orders to his Aurors, he looked at Argus deeply and led them to Gringotts.

During this period, Argus did not want to waste time here, but other Aurors were unwilling to let them leave after receiving Scrimgeour's hint.

This move once again aroused dissatisfaction among the wizards.

Argus, who did not want to have a conflict, raised his hand and signaled everyone to wait quietly.

After about half an hour, there was still no movement in Gringotts.

It was noon at this moment, and even in winter, the dazzling sunlight still made people unable to open their eyes.

Some wizards were getting impatient and increasingly dissatisfied with the behavior of the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, clamoring to leave.

"What is your Ministry of Magic for? We helped them but made a mistake?"

"That's right! Let us go! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"

"Wife, calm down and say less."

"Shut up! If you interrupt again, I will never let you interrupt again!"

"..."

Seeing the crowd getting more and more intense, several Aurors could only look to Agus for help.

But Agus didn't want to stay here any longer.

There were still a lot of business waiting for him. What if he stayed here for too long and the business of the Saint's Shop went wrong?

Who would be responsible for the loss?

Just when several Aurors were beginning to lose control of the situation, Scrimgeour walked out of Gringotts with several goblins.

"What are you arguing about!"

"Director, the wizards here want to go back. Should we..."

Scrimgeour waved his hand: "Let them go back!"

Several Aurors breathed a sigh of relief. Just as they were about to leave, Scrimgeour's sinister voice sounded again.

"But, Mr. Grindelwald, you have to go with us!"

"Me?" Argus' heart tightened, and then he remembered that he was not at the scene when the crime happened, and his tense body slowly relaxed.

"When the explosion happened in Gringotts, I was hosting an event in the store and was not at the scene. I don't know why Mr. Scrimgeour wanted to arrest me?"

"Mr. Grindelwald does have proof of his absence, but the saints under your command do not!"

Scrimgeour sneered and looked at the saints behind Argus.

"Mr. Grindelwald, you make your own choice. Do you want to come with me, or do you want your Saints to come?"

"I would rather have your Saints come over. After all, it's easier to open their mouths than you!"

"Argus!" Vita subconsciously drew out her wand and stood in front of Argus.

Argus smiled and gently put Vita's hand down.

"Okay, I'll go with you!"

"A wise choice!"

Scrimgeour smiled with a successful plan and gave a look to several Aurors, who immediately stepped forward to arrest Argus.

The Saints couldn't stand this and took out their wands to take action!

"Don't move!"

Argus' voice was still so gentle, but there was an unquestionable coldness in his tone.

His eyes were cast on Scrimgeour.

"I hope you won't regret your choice!"

"Hahaha... Mr. Grindelwald doesn't need to worry about this matter."

"Let's go!"

Scrimgeour was very proud of his goal and left without looking back.

"Let me go! Why are you holding me!"

The witch who had previously threatened her husband not to interrupt angrily broke free from her husband's restraints.

"Are you still a man? Mr. Grindelwald didn't hesitate to fight the goblins of Gringotts for us!"

"You still sympathize with us ordinary wizards in Diagon Alley and give us such a big discount!"

"In the end, this is how you treat him!"

"Watched him being captured by the Ministry of Magic!"

Everyone at the scene was silent.

Many people lowered their heads in shame because of her words, and the wizards clenched their fists one by one!

They saw everything that Argus did.

What does the explosion of Gringotts have to do with him?

Why did Argus take the lead in bringing people to support even though he knew it would cause trouble?

Wasn't it to protect them!

He knew the consequences, but he stood up without any hesitation!

But when it was their turn, they...

"Wife, don't say it..."

The scolded wizard didn't dare to look up, he could only gently pull the corner of his wife's clothes and beg in a low voice.

"Get lost! Why did I marry such a loser like you!"

The witch was already angry, and she was even more furious when she heard what her husband said.

"I'm telling you, I'm going to the Ministry of Magic to ask for clarification now!"

"If you still have a conscience, ask yourself what you have done!"

After that, she Apparated away.

Only a group of guilty wizards were left looking at each other.

...

The British magic world was in an uproar.

Every year at this time, it is a day for wizards to reunite, celebrate and relax.

Everyone will choose to enjoy the hard-earned peace on this day.

But now, this convention has been broken!

On Christmas Eve, such a vicious incident happened in Gringotts!

The Aurors of the Ministry of Magic not only did not investigate the murderer, but instead attacked a person who actively helped the rescue!

Malfoy Manor.

Lucius frowned slightly: "How does the Ministry of Magic work?"

"Dad, Argus is wronged, you go and help him!"

Draco heard the news and immediately rushed to Lucius's study.

"I will go to the other families first and ask them to go to the Ministry of Magic together to ask Fudge what is going on. Narcissa, you accompany Draco to prepare for tonight's dinner."

"Don't worry, you go."

Similar scenes also happened in many pure-blood families.

...

Hogwarts.

The principal's office.

The deans of the four colleges gathered in front of Dumbledore.

"I know why you are here..."

"Principal, Argus is a good boy. He just went to help maintain the situation. What's wrong with that! We can't watch him being wronged!" Professor Sprout interrupted Dumbledore and said with a serious expression.

"The right and wrong of this matter is indeed clear at a glance." Professor Flitwick nodded in agreement.

"No matter what, Hogwarts students cannot be slandered."

Professor McGonagall made the final decision. Snape did not say anything, but his eyes expressed everything.
