London, it has been a few days since I received the letter from the Ministry of Magic.

At first, Harry was still panicking, fearing that the Ministry of Magic would go back on its word and destroy his wand, so he was ready to run away.

But fortunately, nothing happened in the first two days, so he was relieved.

On the fourth day, Moody suddenly came with a group of people to take him away, and made a big joke.

Harry now thinks everyone is a bad person, especially those who have been professors of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

It was not until Sirius came that he dared to follow them.

Moody not only did not scold him, but praised him for being vigilant, which eased Harry's embarrassment a lot.

He finally got what he wanted and moved into No. 12 Grimmauld Place and lived with Sirius.

At the same time, Harry also knew why Sirius was too busy to visit him a while ago.

It turns out that he and Lupin have joined the Phoenix organized by Dumbledore, secretly fighting against Voldemort.

Sirius and Lupin's recent mission is to contact werewolves, not only in Britain, but also in other European countries, so that they can join their camp and not be coerced by Greyback.

When Sirius told him the news, he had a big quarrel with Molly.

Molly thought that he was still a child and should not worry about these issues that adults should care about, but Harry didn't think so.

What's wrong with the child? Now, except for Sirius, even Lupin, who lives in the villa, has not faced Voldemort as many times as he has.

He is also a person who has experienced many ups and downs. Even if he is not allowed to join the Order of the Phoenix, can't he even know a little news?

But no matter how Harry argues, others bite their lips and refuse to let go, and Sirius can't help.

Harry could only play Wizard Chess and Magic Awakening with Ron every day, and was teased by the twins.

As the trial date approached, Harry became nervous again.

He didn't dare to imagine what he would do if he was really expelled.

On the 11th, the day before the trial, Hermione and Cho came to play with Ginny, making Grimmauld Place more lively.

Harry quickly put away the king who was about to be broken by Ron's flag, and rushed downstairs to find the two girls who were talking to Ginny:

"Hermione, hasn't Wayne returned from Paris yet?"

He received a letter from Wayne, but it was not as reassuring as seeing him in person.

"Not yet." Hermione shook her head: "He and Fleur should be in Spain now."

The little witch pouted, obviously a little jealous that Wayne had been with Fleur for so long, but she could guess some reasons.

Who made her too young?

Fleur has already graduated, so the two of them can do whatever they want.

Harry looked disappointed, and Hermione knew what he was thinking and comforted him: "Wayne said that Dumbledore would not let anything happen to you. From a legal perspective, this is justified self-defense and you are completely innocent."

"That's what I said...but..."

Harry left worriedly and didn't sleep well all night.

Just after falling asleep for a while, he was woken up by Mr. Weasley again. Today, he was going to accompany him to the Ministry of Magic.

During breakfast, several people who were on duty last night were also comforting Harry.

"Amelia Bones is very good, Harry." Tonks yawned and said, "She is very fair and will listen to you."

"I have met her." Harry nodded, "She is also Susan's aunt."

"Don't think about getting close to her." Sirius suddenly said, "You must be realistic and polite."

He originally wanted to accompany Harry to the trial, but Kingsley organized him to do so.

The Ministry of Magic is very sensitive now. Sirius has no official position in the past, and jury service is not a legitimate reason to avoid being caught.

"If they really want to destroy your wand, just shout Wayne's name loudly, maybe someone will save you."

Ginny will go shopping with Qiu and Hermione in a while, so she got up very early.

Harry's mouth twitched: "What a stupid idea."

"Strictly speaking, there is nothing wrong with what Ginny said..." Mr. Weasley had a strange expression, and Harry looked at him in astonishment.

"Wayne has a wide network of contacts, even the fair and selfless Bones has a good relationship with him."

"When the Werewolf Management Office was being established a while ago, I often saw Bones visiting. Maybe it would be helpful if you mention his name."

Harry nodded blankly, "I hope things are not that bad."

"Don't worry, it's just an alternative plan. Dumbledore will go to testify for you."

Hearing that Dumbledore would go, Harry finally felt refreshed and calmed down a lot.

Finally, Mrs. Weasley gave Harry a hug and watched them walk out of the door.

The thick fog obscured the sun that had just risen. Harry felt a little cold, so Mr. Weasley took him to the subway.

This was Mr. Weasley's first time taking a Muggle subway. Before, he used Apparition to go to get off work and was very serious. He stared at the route map on the window the whole time.

When they got off the train accurately, Harry heard Mr. Weasley breathe a sigh of relief, which was more nervous than a magic duel.

Harry was no stranger to the Ministry of Magic. He came here last time to testify for Sirius.

But this time he became the one on trial, and his mood was completely different.

Mr. Weasley took Harry to his office, but before he could sit down, an old man rushed in and told them breathlessly that the time and place had been changed.

The two could only rush to the Tenth Courtroom, the place where Sirius was once proved innocent.

"A surprise attack, absolutely a surprise attack, I must inform Dumbledore."

At the door, Mr. Weasley pushed Harry in.He turned and left in a hurry.

Entering the courtroom, Harry saw the group of Wizengamot members from last time, but to his surprise, it was not Fudge who stood at the top, but a witch.

Fudge sat in the Wizengamot.

He also saw Percy, who seemed to not know him and kept recording.

The witch spoke, and Harry knew her name - Umbridge, and her sweet voice made him feel uncomfortable.

An old woman in her forties or fifties still spoke with a girl's accent and tone.

This Ministry of Magic is really hungry, and it recruits anyone.

When she read the defendant's witness, Dumbledore finally came, and Harry straightened his back a lot.

Then came the defense process.

Dumbledore invited Mrs. Figg, who was a Squib, to testify that he had indeed seen Dementors on Privet Drive that night.

The two sides had a heated debate. Dumbledore bit Harry to death in self-defense, while Umbridge denied that Dementors had ever been to Privet Drive.

But the presence of the witness and her accurate description of the Dementors eventually made the Wizengamot tend to believe Dumbledore and Harry.

Umbridge's face was livid, but she also knew that she could not do anything to the other party this time. She quickly adjusted her mood and showed a hypocritical smile:

"It seems that we have misunderstood Mr. Potter, but please note that Mr. Potter should not take out your wand to cast spells unless necessary."

"I think that's when it's necessary. Do you want to be kissed by the Dementors?" Harry replied stiffly.

He now had a very bad impression of Umbridge. That woman just wanted to judge him for every spell he had ever used in his life.

If Dumbledore hadn't come, he really didn't know how to defend himself.

A fierce light flashed in Umbridge's eyes, but she didn't attack. Instead, she looked at Fudge in the jury.

Plan A didn't work, but they still had Plan B.

Fudge cleared his throat twice and called Dumbledore who wanted to leave. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

"Dumbledore, it's a good thing that you're here. Let's deal with other things today, right?"

Dumbledore frowned slightly: "I have left the Wizengamot Wizards. Does the Ministry of Magic still have anything to do with me?"

Fudge stood up and came to the seat where Umbridge had just sat.

"No, generally speaking, but this involves Hogwarts after all." Fudge announced: "In order to allow students to receive a more standardized and safe education, the Ministry of Magic will set up a new department - the Department of Magical Education."

Dumbledore's eyes condensed, and his gaze became sharp.

Fudge seemed unaware and continued to explain the functions of the Education Department to other Wizengamot members.

"After the establishment of the Education Department, the Apparition Test Center and the Wizard Examination Management Center will be under the jurisdiction of the Education Department."

"In addition, there will beThe Ministry of Magic has set up several departments, including the Teaching Materials Planning Office, the Major Violation Handling Center, and the Teacher Certification Center. "

"Dumbledore, what do you think?" Fudge looked at Dumbledore with a calm look.

"Will it be useful if I say I disagree?" Dumbledore asked back.

"Of course, you are the headmaster, I will respect your opinion." Fudge smiled triumphantly: "However, the donation to the Ministry of Magic may be less next year. After all, the Ministry is also in a difficult situation. We have recruited more than ten Aurors this year."

"But if a new department is established, it will naturally provide more resources. ”

This is his main purpose today.

Umbridge's clumsy tricks can never really affect Dumbledore. Conspiracies are conspiracies and can never be brought to the table.

But his method is very reasonable and legal. It is clear that he wants to intervene in Hogwarts 750, but no one can say no.

Not even Dumbledore.

Unless... he completely overturns the table.

But obviously, this little thing has not pushed Dumbledore to that point.

"I don't seem to have the reason and right to refuse." Dumbledore said in a deep voice: "This is indeed a good thing. At least, you can help me find the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts next semester."

"Of course." Fudge smiled reservedly: "The Education Department will choose an excellent professor to teach there. "

Fudge was so happy.

It was the first time that he had the upper hand in the fight with Dumbledore and successfully reached into Hogwarts.

Umbridge also laughed, because Fudge told her that she would be the first director of the Education Department.

When the time comes, she will enter the school with the title of Senior Deputy Minister of Magic and Director of the Education Department. Wouldn't that make her more powerful than Dumbledore?

Bang~!

The courtroom was suddenly violently pushed open, and members of the Wizengamot Corps They all looked towards the door.

A handsome young man walked out from the shadows, frowning and looking unhappy.

Harry's face lit up, and Dumbledore's eyes flashed with a smile when he saw the person coming.

After seeing that it was Wayne, most of the Wizengamot members stood up subconsciously.

Wayne glanced at them unhappily, stretched out his hand to interrupt the group of people who were about to come over to say hello, and asked in a cold tone: []

"That house-elf thing suddenly changed the trial time."

"It's fine if it's changed, but why didn't you notify them in advance? "

Harry had only one thought in his mind now.

It was so damn cool.

Fudge looked embarrassed, glared at Umbridge who was at a loss and angry, and ran to Wayne and said with a smile:

"Mr. Lawrence, my subordinates were negligent and forgot to inform you of the change of time."

"The trial is over, and Potter has been acquitted."

Wayne hummed indifferently, "He was wronged in the first place, this is notIs it normal?"

Fudge nodded repeatedly.

"But is that what I'm asking?" Wayne said coldly: "What I'm asking is which house-elf changed the time!"

The courtroom was silent.

The jury members all looked at Umbridge.
