New Hogwarts Professor

Chapter 254: Argument

Xia Ran patted Harry on the shoulder, motioning for him to calm down, and said softly: "Is it okay to think so? Do you think Thicknesse, the Dementor, is a big lie that can be used to deceive the Ministry of Magic and... So people have this lie that Harry and I spun together?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Thicknesse said proudly.

Harry glared at Thicknesse angrily, clenching his teeth and wanting to cast a curse on this man, but it was a pity that his wand was registered at the security checkpoint and any use of magic would definitely be discovered.

Of course, he also knew that it was extremely unwise and irrational to use magic without authorization in front of so many adult wizards.

In the courtroom, the whispers became louder and louder. Many people looked at Harry, including Xia Ran, and their eyes changed subtly. This change undoubtedly made Harry even more annoyed.

Xia Ran smiled calmly and said: "Perhaps you have overlooked it - or maybe you have ignored it intentionally - can a dark creature like a dementor normally be dealt with by a minor wizard? ? Even many adult wizards don’t know the magic of the Patronus Charm. You all should know this, right?"

"Yes." Ms. Bones nodded, looked at Harry and asked, "So, Harry Potter, you conjured a Patronus that is complete, mature, and has a Patronus? Dementors will not retreat easily." .”

"Yes," Harry replied.

"A physical Patronus?"

"A...I'm sorry, what?" Harry felt like he didn't hear clearly.

"Physical Patronus!" Ms. Bones said in a loud voice. "Do you think the Patronus has a clear form? I mean it's not just vapor or smoke?"

"Yes," Harry said, feeling irritated and a little desperate. "A stag is always a stag."

"Every time?" Ms. Bones could be found, her voice also changed slightly. "Have you ever transformed a patron saint before?"

"Yes," Harry replied. "I've been doing this for months."

"Are you fifteen now?" Ms. Bones asked.

"Yes, there is and..."

"Did you learn it at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?" Ms. Bones interrupted him and continued to ask.

Harry answered truthfully: "Yes, Professor Lupine mentioned it to me when I was in third grade, and Professor Frémont taught us in fourth grade because..."

"It's really amazing." Ms. Bones looked at him from above and said, "It's really amazing that Harry Potter can become a real Patronus at his age..."

Around her, some wizards began to whisper to each other again, nodding their heads, showing displeasure, and shaking their heads repeatedly.

"It's such an amazing magic, Minister," Thicknesse said in an annoyed voice. "Actually, I think the more amazing it is, the worse it is because the kid did it in front of a Muggle. !”

Those wizards who showed displeasure, such as Yaxley, murmured their approval.

As a result, Harry actually saw Percy Weasley nod his head pretending to be serious, and he glared at Percy angrily, but Percy pretended not to notice.

"According to you, I mean Thicknesse." Xia Ran said softly, "In order to ensure the implementation of the two laws, the International Wizarding Secrets Act and the Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards Act, even if some of our young wizards have Underage and young wizards have encountered fatal dangers and are not allowed to use magic. They can only sit back and wait for death. Or stand there and wait for death?"

"That's not what I meant." Thicknesse said angrily.

"You don't have to do this, you mean!" Xia Ran said softly, "I know that in the eyes of people like Thicknesse and Yaxley, for the sake of the magic world, keeping secrets - yes, there are legal provisions to support it - It is very necessary and very reasonable to sacrifice some wizards - maybe they are minors at this time, and the little wizards may become adults and wizards in a while!"

"Just like our biggest enemy - you should all be able to guess the one who can't even mention the name. You call him a mysterious man. In fact, you should call him Voldemort - what he has done and preached, If it's for the greater good, if it's for pure blood, if it's for the sake of pure blood, what's the point of sacrificing some half-blood wizards and Muggle wizards?"

"Thickness and Yaxley have your say...I say, right?"

Xia Ran looked at the two people with livid faces with a smile on her face.

The courtroom was extremely quiet for a moment.

No one spoke, and the silence was so quiet. Everyone seemed to be frightened by Xia Ran's words, and they stared at him blankly, a little at a loss.

"You... are talking nonsense!" Thicknesse rebuked angrily. "Our Ministry of Magic, officials are responsible for maintaining the stability and peace of the magical world. How can they come together with the Dark Lord? It's ridiculous! It's really ridiculous! "

"Really?" Xia Ran raised her eyebrows and said, "Did I misunderstand you?"

"You're such a slander!" Yaxley shouted loudly, "Xia Ran, I'm going to sue you for slander! Everyone present heard that Xia Ran was jealous of such a slander against me and Thicknesse!"

"Jealous...you guys?"

Xia Ran burst into laughter and said: "Jealous that you have become Voldemort and have servants but I can't? Are you also jealous that you can call Voldemort master but I can only call him by his first name?"

Harry couldn't help but tremble when he saw many wizards on the trial bench, including Thicknesse and Yaxley, who looked unnatural and suddenly felt very happy.

"Ahem..." Ms. Bones coughed twice and said, "Okay, if Xia Ran has the evidence, don't talk nonsense. We will then start the trial of Harry Potter for violating relevant legal provisions. There was a case of unauthorized use of magic.”

"Xia Ran said that dementors appeared in Little Whinging because of Harry Potter and his cousin. His cousin was attacked by dementors and his life was fatally threatened. In some cases, he had to use the Patronus Charm. Come and drive away the Dementors!" Yaxley said solemnly, "Is there any evidence? Human evidence? Physical evidence? Nothing?!"

Thicknesses sneered and said: "Don't tell me that apart from Harry Potter, there is also a witness named Dudley Dursley, and my cousin has also made false witnesses for relatives. We have nothing to do with it." Haven't you seen enough? Everyone, I hope you can calm down and think carefully about whether being led by Charan Fremont has disrupted your thoughts and judgment."

"Of course it's a witness!" Xia Ran smiled and said, "But please wait a moment."

At that time, in Little Whinging, among the residents, in addition to Harry and Dudley, Mrs. Figg also saw a dementor. One of her squibs was unable to use magic, but they could still see many books. Only wizards can see things.

Mrs. Figg was supposed to be brought to the Ministry of Magic by Dumbledore. Why didn't he come to court after so long?
