From Beauxbatons to Hogwarts
Chapter 108: Retrial initiated
Andromeda Tonks is a kindly middle-aged witch who, along with her husband Ted Tonks, is a doctor at St. Mungo's Hospital.
Years of habit made her get up from bed early and prepare breakfast for the family.Her husband also got up quickly and helped his wife in the kitchen. This has been a hobby between the couple for many years.
Andromeda smiled and shook off her husband's dishonest hands, and magically placed three portions of breakfast on the table.
"Nymphadora, come down for breakfast." Andromeda shouted, then she stopped caring about her daughter and turned to read the newspaper.
"Where's Nymphadora?" Ted asked casually after sitting down and seeing that his daughter hadn't come down yet.
"You haven't come down yet, don't you know about her? She won't get up until the last moment," Andromeda concentrated on reading the newspaper and didn't want to care about her daughter at all.
"Look at this, Ted." Andromeda handed a newspaper to her husband.
"Barty Crouch was arrested for corruption and found to have helped his own son escape from prison and help hide him for nine years?"
After reading it again, Ted was shocked and speechless, "Merlin's beard, this is a big scandal for the Ministry of Magic."
The two of them were still sighing here, when there was a knock on their door.
The couple looked at each other, and Andromeda said, "I'll open the door."
Standing at the door was a strange young wizard with a handsome appearance and a pair of blood-red eyes that always made me notice him.
"Does Andromeda Black live here?" the young wizard asked.
Andromeda was slightly unhappy and replied, "Sorry, there is only Andromeda Tonks here. I have nothing to do with the Black family anymore."
"Well, I'm on the right track. Let me introduce myself. My name is Calvin Cape, and I'm a professor at Hogwarts." The young man said, "Can you invite me in?"
The identity of the Hogwarts professor really relieved Andromeda from her uneasiness, and she nodded and said, "In that case, please come in, Professor Capet."
Andromeda brought Calvin to the living room, and Ted also came over to accompany his wife.The three of them were sitting on the sofa. Just when Andromeda was about to ask a question, she heard her daughter's surprised voice:
"Calvin! Why are you here?"
"Ah, good morning, Nymphadora," Calvin replied vaguely, "I have something I want to talk to your mother about."
"Don't call me by my name, just call me Tonks," Nymphadora said hurriedly, realizing that she was still in her pajamas, "I'll go up and chat later."
After the chattering Nymphadora left, Calvin was about to continue speaking when he suddenly realized that the Tonks and his wife looked at him differently, full of kindness and care.
Andromeda said softly, "This child really didn't mention you to us at all. She didn't cause you any trouble."
Calvin was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth wide but couldn't say anything. He quickly realized what Mr. and Mrs. Tonks meant.
This is treating himself as a son-in-law.
Calvin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly explained: "Mrs. Tonks, I think you misunderstood. Your daughter and I are just ordinary friends. I came today for other reasons."
Andromeda's joy visibly dissipated. Ted on the side asked hurriedly to avoid embarrassment, "So Mr. Capet, why did you come today?"
Calvin smiled awkwardly and said, "Mrs. Tonks, I am a friend of Sirius Black..."
Before Calvin could finish speaking, Ted's expression changed, and he interrupted Calvin and said, "Sorry, our family has no dealings with Death Eaters. Mr. Capet, if you have nothing else to do, please leave. .”
"Mrs. Tonks, do you also believe that your cousin Sirius is the second-in-command among the Death Eaters?" Calvin looked at Andromeda with a gloomy expression.
Andromeda was a little hesitant, but finally said: "Ted, let Mr. Capet finish."
The pudgy Ted blushed, and finally choked out, "If you have anything to say, please tell me, Mr. Cape."
Calvin nodded and continued, "I wonder if you have seen today's news about Barty Crouch."
"I saw it, but what does this have to do with Sirius?" Ted said impatiently.
"It's like this. When Batty was the director of the Department of Legal Enforcement, he tried a number of cases, but they did not go through strict procedures.
Therefore, legally speaking, the trials of these cases have loopholes. Now that Barty Crouch has fallen, the defendant's relatives can request a retrial, and Sirius's case is one of them. "
"Retrial?" Andromeda frowned, "I also know a little bit about what happened back then. Although the procedures were irregular, Sirius has already confessed, and there is no evidence that he is not the murderer."
"Mrs. Tonks," Calvin looked directly at Andromeda, "Sirius has mentioned you to me before. You are his most trusted member of the family. Do you really believe that Sirius will betray his friends and kill twelve people?" An innocent Muggle?"
Andromeda was silent. Ted wanted to say something more, but his wife gently held his hand.
Calvin continued, "More importantly, there is now enough evidence to prove that Sirius is innocent."
After that, Calvin took out a crystal ball from his sleeve and said, "Take a look."
The crystal ball quickly deformed, and a young man with pale yellow hair and pale skin could be clearly seen being tied to a chair with a magic-forbidden rope specially made by the Department of Law Enforcement.
"He's so tough-mouthed," said a young voice from a person not in the picture. "He won't say anything."
"You're still too young, Baker," said a slightly hoarse voice, "I've seen a lot of people like this, wait."
Soon, the voice said again, "No, take this and drink it for him. I'll make sure he even tells you the color of mom's underwear."
"This," Baker said hesitantly, "Anderson, this can't be Veritaserum, it's not allowed to be used according to regulations."
Anderson sneered, "Humph, there are no rules. If you really follow the rules in everything, you won't be able to do this job."
Baker put down the bottle and said, "Anderson, it's better not to forget it."
"Baker Bock, what are you afraid of? It's up to you to drink it for him today." Anderson said disdainfully, "I tell you, the person who used Veritaserum the most was Barty.
Otherwise, why do you think he was promoted so quickly?Hey, I didn't expect that his son would also be given veritaserum today. "
Baker sighed, "Okay, I'll do it." But he thought in his heart: Sorry, Barty, I can't help you either.
Years of habit made her get up from bed early and prepare breakfast for the family.Her husband also got up quickly and helped his wife in the kitchen. This has been a hobby between the couple for many years.
