Hogwarts Crawler

"... Sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment--"

In the courtroom, Bernard was making a verdict.

However, at this moment, the defendant who had been silent in the dock could not help but stand up:

"Okay, stop pretending! I was just controlled by the mysterious man's Imperius Curse before..."

Bernard was interrupted and did not get annoyed. He pointed to the scales on the table skillfully:

"So, Mr. Avery, are you going to apply for a defense? Then please note that any lie you say next will make your heart say goodbye to you forever."

"..."

Little Avery was stunned, and watched in amazement as his heart flew out of his chest and landed on the golden scales.

"What is this for? Isn't it just paying money? Why do you make it look like the real thing?"

The wizards in the court all turned black, especially the wizards in the trial seat.

During this time, they had been told by countless defendants how corrupt the former Ministry of Magic was.

If it was the original Wizengamot model, it would be fine. No matter how embarrassing it was, those who knew about it were still considered to be our own people. But now the court has a gallery. As long as you are free and have passed the identity verification, you can come in to listen. This is a disgrace to the entire British wizarding world!

Without even turning their heads, they could guess how the wizards in the gallery saw them. At this moment, they just wanted to dig out the former Ministers of Magic, especially Fudge, and whip their corpses.

However, no matter how much they wanted to escape the scene, it was just a delusion after all, and time would not stop for a moment because of their embarrassment.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Avery, money can't reduce your sentence for even a day."

Bernard shook his head.

"The Ministry of Magic is getting more and more greedy... OK, I can give you more money!"

"Mr. Avery, if you have nothing valuable to say, then I will continue to pronounce the sentence."

Little Avery widened his eyes:

"No way? You really want to sentence me to jail, without money... In addition to the money for the Ministry of Magic, I can give you an extra sum of money, how about one thousand Galleons? Think about it, what good will it do you to sentence me to jail?"

"Please don't use money to tarnish my character, Mr. Avery."

Bernard was speechless. I thought you were rich when you shouted so loudly. I was a little excited and wanted to add a huge amount of assets from unknown sources to you, but this is the result?

"As for the benefits of sentencing you to jail... For me, justice has been served, and this is the biggest benefit."

Bernard's words attracted a small range of applause from the audience. Even though they knew that the order of the court should not be disturbed, Bernard's words still made the wizards who knew how corrupt the Ministry of Magic was before burst into tears.

Sure enough, Minister Eugene came, and the sky was clear!

Bernard:? ? ?

"What are you kidding... Wait! Let me go! I don't accept it! It shouldn't be like this! I want to see your minister, uh-uh-"

After watching little Avery accept the final verdict and being dragged away by the bailiff after collapsing and struggling, Adam looked at Bernard who was finishing the last trial of the day and leaving get off work and said:

"You called me here just to see this?"

After watching several professors' research in Hogwarts for a day, Adam lost hope in the scientific research ability of wizards, so he chose to come out to relax.

Coming to the court to watch Bernard judge the Death Eaters was just a side job, mainly looking forward to the day when he can finally point the finger at the goblins after the first-hand trial, especially after the United States pretended to be so cool that no one knew it was him.

Gentlemen, he is now eager for a war!

"Yes, that's what I want to see!"

Bernard waved his fist:

"It's really great to let the light of justice shine on the earth!"

"All evil will eventually be brought to justice, right?"

Adam complained, and then said:

"Then you have to keep your heart, don't pursue justice to the end."

The law is just the bottom line of morality. There is a large gray area between justice and evil. This is the range of normal people. If Bernard gradually becomes paranoid and wants to judge others based on justice, then he is obsessed.

"I know, I have been mentally prepared for this kind of thing. There will even be conflicts between law and morality in the future. I can judge like this for a whole day. There are only a few days now. Can't I have fun?"

Bernard waved his hand, and then he looked at Adam while moving his body, which was a little stiff after sitting for a day:

"I heard that you went to the ruins of the Sky Garden again. Did you gain anything?"

Adam touched his chin and thought for a while:

"Well...Seafood reserves +1."

"Oh?"

Bernard's eyes lit up:

"Borrow a bowl to talk!"

"Hiss——"

Adam suddenly took a breath and clapped his fist:

"I remember what I overlooked!"

Fellow countryman! You must hold on, fellow countryman!

Just looking forward to new seafood, Adam suddenly shouted and disappeared from the spot with a Disapparation Bernard:...?

It is gratifying that when Adam found the two fellow countrymen in the secret base, the two fellow countrymen were in good condition, at least according to what they said.

"There are wild vegetables, fruits and fresh water here, and even foreign voles can be caught. It's simply paradise!"

While speaking, the team member handed Adam a rat leg with burn marks:

"Mr. Adam, you eat too! ”

“…”

Looking at the anemone-like growth on the ground that had been removed along with its internal organs, Adam recognized that it was a Mortra rat that was roasted, and smiled awkwardly:

“Hehe, I’m not hungry.”

Then, with a phantom pang of conscience, Adam stopped the two from continuing to eat the roasted Mortra rat:

“I’ll take you back. Where do you want to go? To the bases around the ruins or directly to the Hong Kong Island Ministry of Magic? "

Anyway, for Adam, his exploration of the ruins of the Sky Gardens can come to an end, and it doesn't matter if the two fellow villagers go back.

The lake that can produce seafood discovered so far is enough for him to eat for a while, and the research on Tiamat and Abzu has just begun, not to mention that he will go to Gringotts to show his strength next, and he will also need to be in charge of the division of the camps of magical beasts...

Adam expects that he will not be interested in the ruins of the Sky Gardens for quite a long time.

So even if the two people who go back cause a new wave of exploration, it is unknown when Adam will go to the Sky Gardens again. Maybe by then Adam can get new information from the new trapped people and get a wave of exploration.

Hearing Adam's words, the two people from the Hong Kong Island Ministry of Magic were stunned and couldn't help looking at each other.

Actually... let them go just like that?
