New Hogwarts Professor

Chapter 256: Testimony

Xia Ran stood doing nothing. Although he actually pulled out his wand and killed Thicknesse, he was impulsive, but his reason told him to endure it.

This is Thicknesse at the Ministry of Magic. There is no clear evidence that he is a Death Eater. Even Sharon, Dumbledore, and Ms. Bones have guessed that he is a member of the Death Eater organization. The evidence is unavailable.

"Alas, he still doesn't have enough combat power. Otherwise, why would he worry so much?" Xia Ran sighed inwardly.

"At about seven o'clock on the night of July th, I went out to the corner store at the intersection of Wisteria Road to buy cat food." Mrs. Figg listened to her as she spoke in a cramped voice, as if she had already finished what she was going to say. , I memorized all the words, "Later I heard commotion coming from the alley between Magnolia Crescent Street and Wisteria Road. I walked to the entrance of the alley and saw a dementor running..."

"Run?" Ms. Bones said sternly. "Dementors can't run, they can only glide."

"Yes! Yes! That's what I mean." Mrs. Figg said quickly, her face flushed and she seemed nervous. "They were sliding in the alley and pounced on two boys."

"What do they look like?" Ms. Bones said, squinting her eyes so tightly that the rim of her monocle sunk into her flesh.

"Oh." Mrs. Figg replied, "One is very big and the other is thinner than the boy..."

"No, no!" Ms. Bones said impatiently, "Dementors... describe them, their appearance."

"Oh." Mrs. Figg responded, now the blush had spread to her neck. "They are big, big and wearing cloaks..."

As Harry listened to Mrs. Figg's testimony, he felt the intensity of the testimony and his heart sank horribly.

No matter what Mrs. Figg said, it seemed to him that she had only seen Dementors at most, and photos could not convey the true nature and terrifying abilities of those guys at all.

As they levitate and move a few inches above the ground, it's weird and terrifying, the rotten, stench they give off, and the horrible, squeaky, squeaky sound they make as they devour the surrounding air...

None of these things can be reflected simply by photos.

There was a short, fat man with a big black beard on the second row of benches. The male wizard leaned over to the curly-haired wizard next to him and whispered into the ear of the wizard.

The witch looked proud and nodded sarcastically.

Xia Ran didn't seem worried. As long as Mrs. Figg could testify in court normally, it was almost foreseeable that Harry would be acquitted in the end.

"A big one wearing a cloak..." Ms. Bones repeated, and Thicknesse snorted sarcastically beside her. "Is there anything else I understand?"

"Yes, yes," Mrs. Figg said with a nod. "I felt them all at that time. Everything seemed to be getting colder. It seemed to be the coldest. Don't forget it was still very hot in winter. In summer, at night. What! Then I felt...as if all the happiness had disappeared from the world...I...I remembered so many terrible things..."

Her voice trembled and gradually became inaudible.

Ms. Bones asked with her eyes slightly widened: "What did the dementors do?"

A glimmer of hope suddenly rose in Harry's heart.

"They jumped at the two boys." Mrs. Figg answered now, her voice stronger and more confident, as if talking about the Dementors had given her confidence, and the blush on her face also receded. "A boy The other one who fell, backing away while trying to fight off the dementors, was Harry."

"He tried twice to conjure it up, but it was just silver smoke. The third time he tried it again, he conjured up a Patronus. The Patronus rushed over and knocked down the first Dementor, and then he mustered up the courage to conjure it up again. The second Dementor ran away from Cousin Harry. This... this is what happened."

When Mrs. Figg finished speaking, her voice began to sound a little weak again.

Ms. Bones looked at Mrs. Figg silently. Thicknesse didn't even look at her and just fiddled with the documents on the table in front of him.

Finally, Thicknesse raised his eyes and said a little aggressively: "That's what you saw, right?"

"It happened at that time." Mrs. Figg nodded emphatically.

"Very good." Thickness said proudly, "You can go."

Mrs. Figg looked timidly at Thicknesse and then at Dumbledore and Sharon, who nodded to her.

So she stood up and shuffled towards the door.

Harry heard the door slam shut behind her.

"This witness is not convincing enough," Thickness said arrogantly.

Yaxley and others nodded in agreement.

"Oh, I don't think so." Ms. Bones said in her usual loud voice. "When she attacked the dementors, the power was very accurate. I can't imagine her if they weren't there at the time." Why do you say that?”

"But a dementor ran into a Muggle residential area and happened to meet an underage, a young wizard?" Thickness said contemptuously. "This possibility must be very small, almost negligible, even Bagman won't bet either..."

"Well I don't think any of us would believe that the Dementors being there was a pure coincidence." Dumbledore said softly.

Xia Ran laughed and said: "I think all of us already know one thing. When the previous Minister Fudge was in office, the dementors had completely surrendered to the mysterious man - yes, of course. Voldemort has died - and we should all know that Harry is the only one who survived Voldemort and the Killing Curse. The human Voldemort has some kind of thoughts...or, one of his Death Eaters has some kind of thoughts. They sent dementors to Privet Drive and launched this attack..."

"Isn't it very reasonable to think like this? It's no longer a coincidence, it's no longer an accident, it's an inevitable event!"

Thicknesse, Yaxley and others moved slightly, but the others remained motionless and silent.

"I would like to remind you that the behavior of the two dementors - regardless of whether the facts are as Harry Potter said - even if they are not the product of this child's random thoughts, they should not be the subject of our interrogation. Topic." Thickness said rudely, "We are here to interrogate Harry Potter for violating the Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards Act!"

"Of course it is, that's right." Dumbledore said, "But the appearance of dementors in the alley is closely related to this case. Article of the law states that under special circumstances, young wizards can Using magic in front of Muggles. And those special circumstances that everyone knows without me saying more must include the wizard himself or being present at the same time, other wizards or Muggles, whose lives are threatened!"

"We are very familiar with Article . Thank you very much for the content!" Thicknis roared.
