Take control of thunder and lightning from Hogwarts

Chapter 588 Evidence (recommended monthly ticket)
What?Claremont?

After hearing this name, Pete couldn't help but tense up. Could it be that even Claremont was going to betray him?He really didn't expect the other party to appear to participate in the questioning.

But Pete thought about it again, and felt that Claremont didn't seem to pose much threat to him. After all, the opponent's brain had already been cast with a very harsh secrecy spell, and the information he could tell might not be as much as that of Matthew.

The reason why Andre let him play is probably to use him to scare himself, right?
Thinking of this, Pete was gradually relieved, and his expression gradually returned to calm.

After seeing Pete's performance, Andre sneered in his heart, and he will let you know what despair is in a while!
And this time Claremont also stepped into the trial hall through the side door. At this time, he was wearing a plain wizard robe, and he didn't look as good as when he was the owner of a magic supply shop.

"Claremont!" Andre stared at the old man standing in the audience, "Everyone here knows your identity, so I don't need you to introduce yourself. I'm asking you now, about the silver spear manipulating behind your back. Do you know anything about civil society organizations in Germany?"

"I know, Lord Andre." Claremont is indeed a well-informed person, and under the gaze of so many people, he still remains calm and calm, "Not only do I know, I am also the No. The direct person in charge of the West German Endeavor Society' undertakes the work of coordinating and managing these institutions for the club, and is regarded as a non-staff member of the Silver Spear."

Even he admitted it so readily?The bystanders around, whether it was the Wizengamot councilor or the executives of the Ministry of Magic sent by Pete, were secretly shocked by Claremont's frankness.

The confession of the person directly in charge is much more powerful than those low-level personnel. Will he deal a fatal blow to Pete?
But when everyone looked at Pete, they found that the other party was very calm, as if he was not worried about Claremont's testimony against him at all.

"Very good!" Andre continued to ask with a straight face, "Please explain to us how your main work in these institutions is usually handed over to the silver spear?"

"I'm sorry, Director Andre, please forgive me for not being able to fully recount the relevant content." Claremont shook his head expressionlessly.

"What about the names, you have worked for the club for so long, you must know the names of many relevant personnel, such as the silver spear gun, the black market, and the West German Endeavor Association. Can you provide a list of known personnel?" Andre continued to ask.

"I'm sorry." Claremont still shook his head coldly, "I can't say those names, not even one."

"why?"

"In order to prevent leaks, my brain has been cast with a high-strength secrecy spell by the club, and I have also signed a contract. As long as I subconsciously know that I am leaking secrets, my behavior will be stopped by these magics, so any information related to the club. It cannot be revealed!" Claremont said the regrettable news in a cold tone.

ah?can not say?
What, it made us happy for nothing, thinking that a real big shot came up, what kind of big melon could we hear, and you are no different from a dumb, all the wizards around curled their lips in disappointment.

But at the same time, they also had a new understanding of the club's methods of controlling their wizards. No wonder these silver spears used cruel methods of brainwashing the imprisoned wizards. It turned out that they had a long history of criminal convictions.

It's no wonder that Pete was so calm. I'm afraid he already knew that Claremont couldn't say a single useful word.

And those executives of the Ministry of Magic who were in the same camp as Pete couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief at this time. They were really afraid that Claremont would say something terrible. touched.

But to everyone's surprise, Andre didn't show the slightest bit of frustration in the face of Claremont who had nothing to say.

Instead, he continued to ask, "Since you can't say anything about the club, do you have any evidence that can reveal the club's information?"

"Yes, Director Andrey."

Claremont's indifferent reply instantly set the entire trial hall on fire.

He just said 'yes' right?
Quite a few people seemed to have not recovered their senses, and kept asking their companions. After getting a definite answer, they immediately looked at Claremont with burning eyes.

Even those reporters pointed their guns and short cannons at him, as if they were waiting for some treasure that was about to be born.

The wizards of the 'split faction' around looked nervously at Pete. It was impossible for them to say that they were not afraid, but they wondered what evidence this guy had in his hands.

At this time, Pete kept recalling, did Claremont really have any substantive evidence?
impossible!
Pete resolutely denied this idea, and then shook his head gently at the subordinates, telling them not to act rashly. What Andre and Clement said was probably trying to scare them and force them to do something irrational. , At this time, you must not mess around.

"The first Auror team stepped forward to protect the witness!"

Just when Pete hinted to those wizards not to act rashly, Andre gave a soft shout, and then four Aurors rushed out from the side, with their backs to Claremont, guarding the four directions, looking serious .

But the more this happened, the more Pete felt that the other party could not produce any real evidence, and now it was probably just a bluff.

Of course, although Pete has been so comforting himself in his heart, his hands still couldn't help but tightly clenched the armrests of the seat.

After setting up the defense work, Andre asked sharply, "Claremont, what is the evidence you are talking about?"

"It's memory, Director Andre." Claremont was also a little nervous by the current battle at this time, but he knew that there was no turning back, so he simply replied.

"What memory?"

"It's a long-term collection of memories that I have been working for the Silver Spear for more than ten years. It is full of scenes where I came into contact with the Silver Spear." Claremont couldn't help but glanced at Pete next to him when he said this.

This made Pete's heart tense suddenly, but he forced himself to calm down. It's impossible. Their secrecy spells have always been strict. How could Claremont extract the memory? Moreover, he has been loyal to me for so many years, and will be here. The evidence was gathered years ago?

Now it must be Claremont and Andre who are trying to put on a show for me. I must not lose my sense of proportion, or I will fall right into their hands!
After thinking through all this, Pete suppressed the feeling of running away, and nailed himself to the seat.

Andre also noticed Pete's abnormality at this time, and at the same time couldn't help admiring in his heart, he was so calm, then changed his words, and immediately urged, "Okay, please show the evidence in your hand."

"Yes, Director Andre." Claremont sighed softly when he heard the words, and then took out a small row of test tubes from his bosom, which contained magic fluid that shone with light blue light.

Andre nodded upon seeing this, then turned to look at Pete, "Minister Pete, what do you think of the evidence submitted by Claremont?"

At this time, Andre's sudden question seemed to make Pete more sure that the other party was bluffing. Holding a bunch of bottles filled with someone's memory was like scaring me?

To this Pete replied coldly, "It would be best if these memories are really valuable, but the culprit, Michelle, has already surrendered himself. In my opinion, the current behavior seems a bit redundant."

"Does Minister Pete think so?" Andre sneered teasingly, then turned his head to look at Edmund, "Mr. Schmidt, as the most prestigious wizard in Germany, I wonder if you can operate for everyone The memory display this time can also be regarded as a notarization."

"You are polite to Director Andre, I am willing to help you." Edmond responded with a smile.

Then he got up from the spectator seats, came to Claremont below, randomly selected one from the row of test tubes, pointed it lightly with his magic wand, and then threw it vigorously into the air.

Soon, under Edmond's control, the thread of memory slowly unfolded, and then an extremely realistic three-dimensional picture was displayed above everyone's heads.

Standing in this three-dimensional image are two people, one of whom is Claremont himself, who is still wearing gorgeous costumes and has that confidence in his expression.

After seeing the other person in the picture clearly, everyone's eyes widened immediately. This was Pete himself in ordinary clothes!

Claremont in the picture said respectfully to Pete, "My lord, the task you entrusted to me has been completed. Director Byers of the Department of Magical Transportation believed my so-called inside information yesterday and bet on Quidditch on the black market. He lost 800 Galleons, but he still wanted to make money today, and brought 800 Galleons here, I think he will lose it in a few days, and he can't even afford Floo powder."

Pete in the picture did not show any joy when he heard the words, but complained, "Why did it take so long, and before things are completely successful, don't be too happy! Although Bayer is a waste, but for our future strategy It is very important that the first step in splitting Germany must start with the Department of Magical Transportation."

"Sorry, my lord taught you that." Claremont lowered his head in fear, "I will keep an eye on him for the next two days, and I will notify you to contact him as soon as Bayer falls into the trap."

"Yeah." Pete nodded in satisfaction, "Remember, after he loses the red eye, it's best to lend him some money, I'm going to make him really desperate."

"My lord, I understand how to do it."

"By the way..." Pete suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Besides Beyer, the Endeavor Society should also pay attention to it. I heard that many people in the club are very disgusted with conflicts with East Germans. You Deal with it asap."
