Harry Potter’s Natural Villain

Chapter 281 Trial (Part 2)

"The focus of this trial should only be on whether I slandered my student-Draco Malfoy. The rest can be said to be minor details. After the proof, of course it can become proof of my possible crime. It even has a certain impact on sentencing, but if the slander is said to be untenable, it can be said to be nonsense." Dumbledore first defended himself.

"As for the evidence, I actually showed it quite clearly at the award ceremony at that time. The human and physical evidence was very clear and had a strong effect. At that time, we still persuaded him to turn back in a persuasive way. Give up resistance, but didn't expect him to take the lead in exchange." Dumbledore shook his head and said helplessly.

"Of course, this is only my side words. There were many faculty, staff and students present at the time. I think everyone with a discerning eye can be divided between true and false. Today, for this trial, I once again invited the witnesses who appeared last time, with additional supplements. Witnesses from, strengthen the persuasiveness of my testimony." Dumbledore explained his position and opinions in an orderly manner.

"First of all, Mr. Crouch, please allow him to testify for me." He pointed his fingertips together and said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Dumbledore, please forgive me for interrupting your speech. According to the evidence provided by Mr. Lucius and some previous statements by the defendant himself, Mr. Crouch has been tortured to a certain extent before, causing confusion. So the credibility of his testimony is open to question." Bones interrupted Dumbledore's words.

"Oh? Really." Dumbledore glanced at Lucius, who was sitting in the dock at this moment, his azure blue eyes flashed, but he didn't show anything more. .

"Then I hope that Professor McGonagall will come up to testify for me." Dumbledore nodded and cleared his throat.

"Okay, grant your request."

Then Professor McGonagall wore a simple lady's black robe and walked from a short distance behind Dumbledore to a place parallel to him.

"Dumbledore seldom got involved in student discipline issues when he was in school, saying that his partiality is purely something out of nothing. It is better to say that he is very tolerant to all students and is willing to give them more opportunities. It's a kind of partiality." Professor McGonagall explained the facts unsmilingly. After speaking, he pressed his lips tightly, waiting for the judgment of the others.

The members of the jury began to whisper, and most of the members nodded in approval, seeming to agree with her.

"Next is the potions professor at Hogwarts, Mr. Snape."

Snape walked slowly from behind Dumbledore in his greasy black hair and dressed in a black robe, taking the place of Professor McGonagall.

Snape glanced at the fifty or so jury members in front of him with his sullen gaze, and then said in a straightforward tone: "As a potions professor, I don't think I have done anything illegal. The veritaserum medicines I received are only medicines prepared for identification by 7-year-old students. As we all know, the components of the veritaserum potion formula are strictly controlled, and the way I obtain them is also a formal channel. I believe it is in the Ministry of Magic. There is also a record in the registration record. If there is any mistake in the whole incident, maybe it is to "threat" a few disobedient students with this medicine, so that they know how to respect the teacher."

"Which student is it?" The mother toad's voice rang, looking very curious, even though it had nothing to do with the whole trial.

"Harry Potter." Snape showed a malicious smile. It seemed a good choice if Harry Potter, who had already returned to Petunia's house, could be brought to trial.

Of course, he didn't seem to know that if he really got his wish, the boy might be happy.

The jury began to whisper, the name of the savior is still very influential.

"Everyone, be quiet." Bones said solemnly, and then the noisy court finally calmed down.

She then flipped through the file in front of her, which proved that Snape's words were true. He bought the medicinal materials from the Slug Giggs store in Diagon Alley, and these were indeed remarks.

"As for the use of Veritaserum, I don't know, maybe you can ask the next witness." Snape said, looking back at Moody.

The old Auror was shaking his prosthetic leg, rubbing it against the floor, making a harsh noise.

"Mr. Alastor Moody, please come forward and tell your testimony." Bones nodded.

Just as Moody got up, ready to drag his body, and walked to the front to give his testimony, a tall man in a plain wizard robe stumbled into the courtroom, the dark door was opened, and the outside world The light poured into the dark room at once, and many people squinted their eyes subconsciously.

Except for Moody, his magic eye was unaffected, and it was still spinning vigorously in his eye sockets, looking at his eyes.

The man ran to Dumbledore, who had not yet stepped down from the accused position, with a look of horror, and was stopped by several people.

"There are many obstacles!" Several wizards chanted spells one after another.

He tripped heavily.

"Wycliffe? What are you doing? We are in court now!" Burns said with a calm face. It was obvious that she recognized the colleague in front of her.

"Ah, Azkaban was broken by...by that person!" The man struggled to stand up and said tremblingly.

Dumbledore's eyebrows twitched sharply, and then he instantly calmed down, and immediately looked at Lucius above the accuser's seat.

Lucius in the dock tried his best not to show any abnormality, and calmly looked ahead, and stared at Dumbledore's penetrating blue eyes again without any shy.

The jury seemed to explode at once, and most of them showed a panic expression, mixed with a little dazed and at a loss.

"What's the situation now?" Dumbledore gave up looking at Lucius and hurriedly asked the man.

And the man suddenly became incoherent, became stuttered, and seemed to be confused about how to speak.

"Everyone, please forgive me, this old man, for taking the first step. I will accept the outcome of the trial no matter what." Dumbledore got up when the inquiry was unsuccessful, and bowed slightly to the more than fifty jury members.

Then the old man's body gradually disappeared under the faint candlelight, and finally disappeared.

The old man's every move appeared resolute.

Apparition!

The restrictions on movement magic within the Ministry of Magic seemed completely ineffective to him.
