Hogwarts: Bourne Returns from Warhammer

"They don't talk about Wu De!"

"I was caught because I was careless and didn't dodge."

"You know, if I were an 'Expelliarmus' at that time, they would all have to lie down."

In the Auror office of the Ministry of Magic in London, Gilderoy Lockhart, who had won the "Order of Merlin, Third Class", was talking to an Auror who came to him for details.

Due to the celebrity effect, the Auror responsible for reception and inquiry could only record with a quill while nodding frequently and saying: "Ah, yes, yes, yes."

In addition to him, several people who personally experienced the "Fantastic Beast Riot" in the Pillars of Hercules Commercial Street also provided testimony as witnesses.

Compared to these witnesses, some people were also brought to London from Gibraltar, but those people were all suspects.

Therefore, the place where they stayed was not the second underground floor (Department of Magical Law Enforcement), but the tenth underground floor that was inaccessible to the elevator.

There are many courtrooms on the tenth floor underground of the Ministry of Magic. Except for one specially prepared for the Wizengamot Tribunal, the others are all used for interrogating various prisoners.

Director Weasel was now firmly locked up in the eighth courtroom.

The door at the entrance of this courtroom is dark and solemn, with a huge iron chain hanging on it. After passing through the door, a room in the shape of an "8" appears.

However, this "8" is not so symmetrical. The room is divided into two parts. One is huge, big enough to accommodate dozens of people inside at the same time without feeling suffocated; the other is tiny, so small that only one person can stand inside, and cannot easily bend down even if they want to squat down.

Weasel was in that small cubicle, with an iron chain tied to his body, and his whole body was almost half-suspended in place.

In the large cubicle, a row of armchairs were arranged in a semi-arc shape. Several Aurors responsible for interrogation work were all sitting on the armchairs, holding wands and staring covetously at Weasel in the small cubicle.

The floor, walls, and ceiling were all made of stone, and the burning torches illuminated the blackened walls.

Except for Director Scrimgeour, who sits in the middle armchair, these Aurors are all "special Aurors" of the Auror Office. They never go out in the field, and their numbers and names are all important to the Auror Office. confidential.

These people all wear a special pitch black mask with holes only for the two eyes and mouth. Around these three holes are two letters "M" and one letter "O" etched in pure silver. The combination is "MOM", the abbreviation for the Ministry of Magic.

They were dressed like this, firstly, to conceal their identities, and secondly, to show their interrogators:

First, we represent the Ministry of Magic;

Second, everything we do is entirely for the benefit of the Ministry of Magic;

Third, there is no personal grudge between us and you, so please don’t resent us in the future.

It should be said or not, this is definitely an authentic Da Ying tradition - flow (xing) Cheng (shi) Zheng (zhu) Yi (yi).

Khan sincerely believes that I have deceived him.

"So, let's start now?"

A special Auror sitting next to Scrimgeour tilted his head and asked the supervisor. After getting the latter's permission, he immediately waved his wand and casually released an extremely weak magical impact on the wall.

Not only is it not a magic spell at all, the intensity of this magical impact is not even comparable to the mild prank spells that ordinary little wizards use when playing around.

Such an operation is simply not something an Auror can do.

However, just as this "insignificant" magic impact hit the wall, Weasel immediately let out a howl like a ghost.

On the wall of that small cubicle, there were 8 special wands stuck on them with the "Permanent Adhesion Charm". Their wand bodies are all made of incredibly hard hornbeam wood, and the wand cores are all made of fire dragon heartstrings, a material that can greatly increase the power of spells. Moreover, these 8 special wands have been specially treated and can only emit a fixed spell. And these 8 fixed spells, without exception, are all spells used to torture wizards.

To put it bluntly, this eighth courtroom is prepared for some heinous wizard criminals. It is a room specially used to perform the "Great Memory Restoration Spell".

As long as a spell is cast on a specific location on the wall in the large cubicle, the corresponding special wand in the small cubicle can immediately activate a certain torture spell in multiples.

As for these "special Aurors", they have actually received particularly strict training and can control the power of their spells to a great extent.

Otherwise, after multiplying the torture spell, it is very likely that the victim will be sent to see Merlin in one fell swoop.

The torture spell inspired by the special wizard just now is a transformation torture spell.

When this spell hit Weasel, thousands of nail-length spikes instantly sprouted from the inside of his clothes, and its effect is self-evident.

Scrimgeour frowned. Although he didn't like such a cruel interrogation process, the traditions of the Auror Office still had to be observed.

"Suspect W..."

Still following tradition, Scrimgeour did not use his name directly, but instead called Weasel, who was being interrogated, by a code name.

"...If you want to be decent, then tell the truth. If you don't want to be decent, then we will do it for you. We have eight ways to make you look decent!"

"Be honest! Don't think about resisting! We already have evidence of your crime, and your accomplices have already confessed!"

"If you perform well enough and turn in your duties quickly enough, then we can find a good position for you in Azkaban Prison!"

"You and your accomplices, whoever is the last to explain will be 100% the first to encounter the Dementors after living in Azkaban!"

In order to increase his persuasiveness, Scrimgeour looked at another special Auror, who immediately understood.

"Ow—!"

Weasel was hit with another curse, whether it was intentional or accidental. This time, it was the Cruciatus curse among the "Three Unforgivable Curses".

(When necessary, Aurors will even be authorized by the Ministry of Magic to legally use "Avada Kedavra" to deal with dark wizards, and because Aurors are not directly using "Crushing Bones" on people, their behavior at this time No magical laws were broken.)

The severe pain from his soul instantly broke the already battered Weasel's defenses, and he would never overestimate the possibility of surviving the interrogation and escaping guilt by fishing in troubled waters.

After receiving two consecutive critical hits, Weasel turned pale and his face was covered with big beads of sweat.

"You're going to fight as soon as you come up? What do you want to ask about? Why don't you ask first?"

Scrimgeour nodded. He did not refute Weasel's soul questioning, but he also did not explain to the other party the reason for "hit first without asking".

Who told this to be in the eighth courtroom?

This is the tradition here.

Moreover, the facts have also proved that the existence of tradition naturally has its rational side. Didn’t Weasel just start confessing obediently?
