The so-called trial will naturally not be conducted in a place like the Department of Mysteries that has nothing to do with the law.

The three Links got out of the elevator under the leadership of the female clerk, and turned a turn on the way to the corridor leading to the Department of Real Mysteries, and entered a downward staircase.

After going down for almost five minutes, the three of them appeared in another corridor.

The decoration style of this corridor is completely different from the magnificence of other parts of the Ministry of Magic.

It is constructed of stone as a whole, and there are many dark gates on both sides of the corridor. The overall atmosphere is gloomy and terrible. The lighting is also provided by torches inserted on the wall tray.

If you want to describe it, it's exactly like some of the inaccessible places in Hogwarts.

"Dear guests, we are here."

In the end, the female clerk took the three Links to one of the doors and said respectfully.

Link nodded to the opponent, then turned his gaze to the door.

This is a black wooden door that looks very old. At this moment, the door lock on it has been opened, and the stone door frame above the door is inlaid with a rusty metal sign-1.

"The first courtroom."

Link murmured, and Mrs. Foley and Emily nearby were also staring at the metal sign with serious expressions.

These so-called courtrooms are used by the Ministry of Magic to try criminals of the highest standards.

For example, the Death Eaters who followed Voldemort to do a lot of evil.

After Voldemort's fall, these courtrooms have basically been in a semi-abandoned state.

Because ordinary criminals don't need Wizengamo trial here at all, the Magic Law Enforcement Department can handle it directly.

Now that the courtroom is restarted for the cases of Sirius Black and Pettigrew Peter, it can also be seen that Fudge attaches great importance to this matter.

Seeing the three of Links standing in front of the door and looking at them, the female clerk on the side also smiled and said respectfully:

"The first courtroom was opened by Minister Fudge against all the people's opinions this time, because the place where Sirius Black was tried was here. Minister Fudge felt that if he could vindicate Sirius Black in this place, it would be even better. significance!"

Hearing that Emily and Mrs. Foley just nodded slightly, indicating that they knew.

But Link frowned.

The words of the female clerk just now provided him with a very important message. In this trial, Fudge had already decided that Sirius would win.

"Tsk tsk~"

With some mockery, Link finally walked into the courtroom with Mrs. Foley and Emily.

The courtroom is actually a very large space.

The light here is still dim, but it is much stronger than the corridor outside, and you can see things clearly.

In the most central position of the courtroom, there are two simple iron chairs for trial. There are no handcuffs or the like on them, but loose iron chains are placed on them.

At a distance of about 10 meters around the trial chair, there are rows of empty benches that gradually rise.

This arrangement reminds Link of a lecture theatre in a previous life, or a stadium for sports competitions.

There are already many people sitting on these chairs at this moment.

Most of these people are invited audiences, and they are all well-dressed and noble guys at first sight.

In the seats directly in front of the trial chair, there were about fifty of them, wearing fuchsia robes, and showing a delicate silver w Wesengama on their left chest.

As the highest council of the entire Ministry of Magic and even the entire wizarding world, each of them looked very serious.

Among them, Fudge, who sits in the middle of the first row, is no exception.

It seems that he used some magic to make him look thinner and more majestic.

Even if the three of Link entered the game, he just nodded slightly, and no longer had the enthusiasm of the past.

But the audience sitting elsewhere is different.

Most of the guys invited to watch the trial are powerful big families and big bosses in the wizarding world of the country. They originally had a shallow or deep relationship with the Foley family. Recently, they have been in Hogwar through themselves. The younger generations of Ci's children knew Link's talents, so almost as soon as the three of Links appeared, they were surrounded by countless smiles and flattery.

Fortunately, these people still hold their own noble status as aristocrats, and they are not too radical. Only then can the three Links successfully sit in their positions.

Shortly after Link fell behind in the trio, Fudge officially announced the start of the trial.

The audience who were still whispering in pieces, trying to talk to Mrs. Foley and Link instantly quieted down.

Seeing this, Fudge nodded in satisfaction, holding a piece of parchment and saying:

"At the August 15th trial, Sirius Black was retrial for the mysterious man, and indirectly killed the Potter and his wife. And Sirius Black blatantly violated the secrecy law and released the curse to kill 13 people in the Muggle neighborhood. The Muggle case."

"Interrogator: Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic, Amelia Bones, Director of the Magic Law Enforcement Department... and all members of the Wiesengama Council."

After chanting a long list of interrogator's names, Fudge's expression became more serious, and he changed a piece of parchment and continued:

"First trial: Pettigrew Peter!"

As soon as the words fell, the door of the courtroom was violently opened, and the two Aurors in uniforms pressed in with a look of panic, and Peter, who looked much more embarrassed than the last time they met, walked in.

The Aurors directly pressed Pettigrew Peter to a trial chair in the middle of the courtroom, and the originally loose iron chain was automatically wrapped around Pettigrew Peter's body and tied it firmly to the chair.

And Peter's appearance also caused a burst of exclamation from the audience in the stands.

Obviously most people did not expect that the guy who died bravely resisting'Death Eater' Black and was later posthumously awarded the Merlin First Class Medal did not die!

Also involved in the retrial of the case!

The audience's reaction Fudge was all in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth raised imperceptibly, and then he continued to say:

"The second trial person: Sirius Black, and the witnesses in this case: Albus Dumbledore and Remus Lupin!"

Sirius Black was also pressed in by the two Aurors.

But compared with Pettigrew Peter, he looks much more energetic.

No, this can hardly be described with spirit.

He is almost like a big star who is walking to the stage to prepare for a performance. He tilted his head slightly, glanced at everyone present with a proud face, and grinned from time to time.

The audience also cheered, shouting the word Black out loud, and many even stood up rudely, looking extremely excited.

Suddenly the scene was chaotic.

Fortunately, not long after Sirius was locked in the chair, Dumbledore brought Lupin and Harry into the courtroom.

Dumbledore's fame was indeed terrifying, and everyone in the audience immediately converged upon seeing the situation. The noise at the beginning turned into a whisper in the dark.

To be honest, it was still rude, but Fudge didn't care about it at all.

He just got up with a grin and asked the Aurors to bring chairs for Dumbledore.

The three Harry who came with Dumbledore were obviously frightened by the messy but serious atmosphere of the scene, and stood awkwardly beside Dumbledore, at a loss.

Fudge was also very generous about this. Instead of arranging them to go to the audience stand, he moved three more chairs so that they could sit next to Dumbledore.

"Okay, now I will read the accusation against Peter Pettigrew. The accused was accused of the following crimes: the defendant deliberately and knowingly committed the Porter couple in the previous case of the Porter couple being killed by a mysterious man. As a price for his safe house information, he took refuge in a mysterious man and became a death eater who served as a tiger. After subsequent incidents were revealed, he and Sirius Black blatantly used the spell to fight in a Muggle community, killing 13 people. Muggle. In the end, the defendant took the opportunity to die and threw all the guilt on Sirius Black. He himself enjoyed the follow-up honorary seal of the Ministry of Magic."

"The defendant's move violated a total of 19 laws including the "International Wizarding Federation Confidentiality Law", "Methods for the Use of International Curses", and "Prohibition of Contact with Dark Wizards"!"

Fudge finished reading all the charges, then he breathed a sigh of relief and asked Pettigrew Peter:

"In the principle of fairness and justice, I now ask you a question! Pettigrew Peter, who was supposed to die, why are you still alive?"

"I... I'm scared!" Dwarf Peter squirmed and twisted his body, stammering, "Because I am so afraid of Sirius Black and his master! So if I don't hide, They must have run out to kill me like this time!"

"you are lying!"

As soon as Dwarf Peter finished speaking, Harry yelled furiously.

This disrespectful behavior caused many Wiesengamo members on the trial bench to frown.

They are not ignorant ordinary people, and they have no sense of identity with Harry as the savior.

If Harry continues to be rude, they might even drive Harry out of the courtroom directly.

Dumbledore and Hermione naturally realized this.

They quickly persuaded Harry who wanted to continue.

Upon seeing this, Fudge nodded and said blankly:

"Dwarf Peter, the reasons you gave are simply untenable. There is no doubt that the Ministry of Magic and Azkaban are powerful. If it is really like what you said, then the first thing you think of is to ask the Ministry of Magic Seek protection, not suspended animation for more than ten years!"

Pettigrew Peter was speechless, and kept his forehead there.

This gave Fudge a smile on his face that represented the winner.

However, at this moment, an old but loud voice rang from the Wissengarmo court:

"I object!"

This voice attracted everyone's attention. After hearing the reputation, the three Links saw an old man with a nice face, no beard, and gray hair, who had raised his hands and stood up.

At this time, seeing everyone watching over, the old man said:

"According to our investigation, Pettigrew Peter has been a very timid child since he was a child. This is why his Animagus form is a rat."

I heard a laugh in the audience here.

The old man was also very cooperative and waited until the laughter gradually fell behind before continuing:

"It is indeed possible for such a timid person to do some absurd things when faced with that kind of danger. So Minister Fudge, you absolutely cannot understand him with common sense."

As soon as this remark came out, many people in the audience nodded unconsciously.

Most of these people had read books at Hogwarts with Peter Pettigrew. In their impression, Peter Peter was indeed timid and different from ordinary people.

For a while, the expressions of Fudge, Harry and others looked a little unpleasant.

Originally, this trial was supposed to be a certainty, but now suddenly an old man who does not know the so-called speaks for Peter Peter!

Link also felt a little strange about this.

At this moment, Mrs. Foley leaned to Link's ear and gently explained:

"That's Old Bartos. He is a close friend of the former Minister of Magic, and he used the opportunity of cleaning the Death Eaters to search for a large amount of property in one fell swoop and pushed himself to the position of Senator Wiesengamo."

Upon hearing this, Link suddenly realized.

If this is the case, then it makes sense for the old man to stand up now.

Each of them, the old scum of the last generation, has taken up the property of the Death Eaters.

This naturally also includes the Black family.

And if Sirius Black is overturned, will Sirius go out and hold them accountable for those who took advantage of the Black family’s suffering and directly ate up half of the Black family’s property?

So the only way they can see now is to completely crucify Sirius on the pillar of shame, Death Eater!

Only in this way! They can continue to sleep peacefully at night!

The corner of Link's mouth, who had understood it, rose up.

Things finally started to be a little suspenseful.

Link even imagined what the consequences would be if Sirius had not been reversed.

This is really...so fun!

Not only Link, but many spectators in the audience who were originally lacking in interest in this trial also cheered up at this moment and began to listen intently.

And then the trial became more intense.

One after another Wiesengarmo, who was in the same faction with Bartos in the previous generation, came forward~lightnovelpub.net~ From the beginning, on the topic of whether Peter Peter is guilty and Dumbledore, Sirius and others Hold high-intensity debates.

In this process, the presiding judge Fudge still has a higher right to speak.

Whenever a detailed topic debate reaches a dead end, he will throw up a new topic so that the debate can continue.

But Link noticed a more interesting detail.

That is, the question raised by Fudge does not conform to the normal rules of trial.

What he is doing now seems to be guiding the two parties to tell the story of the case in as much detail as possible.

So that the audience can read this story more clearly and simply!
