Reversal Incidents Team

Chapter 9 The Incident at King's Cross Station

March 8th, late.

The Kent Quidditch Club was established by several pure-blood families in the UK in the last century, and many of the club's directors have a seat on the Hogwarts board of directors.This historic club with four Quidditch pitches sits in a valley among the Kentish ridges.

In the bar on the north side of the club, the first Snitch made by Bowman Wright and the manuscript of Gerty Kidder's diary hang on the wall.

At the bar, Malfoy was wearing a white and green top, similar to tracksuits in the Muggle world.

After a fierce Quidditch match, Malfoy looked rarely relaxed.

He ordered a hot whiskey from the bartender.Terrence Higgs, the opposing team's Seeker sat to his left today, beckoning for a chestnut wine.

"Draco, your performance just now was really wonderful." Terrence raised his glass.

Malfoy clinked glasses with him. Terrence was also a student of Slytherin. In 92, it was because he was selected by the British Quidditch team as a Chaser and left Hogwarts. Malfoy succeeded him as Slytherin. Leitlin's new Seeker.Terrance is a Slytherin who is not so Slytherin.After retiring in 98, Terence joined the Department of Magic and Sports as a senior official. He is a half-blood wizard that Malfoy rarely likes.

"You're not bad, Terrence."

After a glass of wine, Terrence Higgs whispered in Malfoy's ear. "Listen, Draco, you know my uncle's friend Tiberus Cormac is in the minister's office, and he told me something I think you should know."

Malfoy narrowed his eyes, he knew that what Terence was going to say next must be very important.

"There were traces of bones reappearing at King's Cross Station last Monday. The Ministry of Magic believed that there were escaped Death Eaters. The news was completely blocked, and only a few people knew. Cormack said that they would launch an investigation on the Ministry of Magic on Monday. I think it would be beneficial for you to know in advance about the question of serving as a wizard on the Death Eater side," Terrence said.

Malfoy immediately thought of the fact that the Incident Reversal Team was hardly in the Ministry this week, and he figured it was that part of the people who were outside the blockade. "Thanks, Terrence. I don't think the Ministry will be able to find any undue connections between me and those people."

Terrence didn't say any more.

Of course Malfoy liked the news, but his acquaintance with Terrence Higgs prevented him from inquiring too much information from him. Who knew whether Terrence was sent by the Ministry of Magic to test him.He had to show that he didn't care, so as to dispel the suspicion of some spying people.After patiently watching the second match at the Kent Quidditch Club, Malfoy cast a drying spell on his damp hair after emerging from the private bathroom.

After apparating back home, Malfoy immediately went to the study and wrote a letter to his father's friend, Mr. Glendalas, who had been helping him and his mother after the end of the Second Wizarding War.

It was not until the morning of Monday the 18th that Malfoy received a reply from Mr. Green Dallas at the breakfast table.

"Dear Draco,

I think the less you know about the situation before being questioned, the better, trusting the Ministry of Magic not to place false charges on an innocent wizard. "

An insincere comfort letter, Malfoy did not receive much comfort.He didn't tell his mother about it, and she asked him what Glenn Dallas's letter said, and Malfoy replied casually that it was a matter of the Sports Department.Although Narcissa didn't fully believe it, her good family upbringing prevented her from asking too much.

Malfoy picked up the pumpkin juice in his hand and drank it down. It suddenly occurred to him that he could go to the Ministry of Magic and ask Hermione later.

Arriving at the Ministry of Magic via the Floo network, Malfoy loosened his tight black tie and joined the wizarding stream towards the elevator.

As soon as he got into the elevator, a magic paper plane landed on his head. Malfoy saw his name written in dark blue ink on one of the wings, and he took it with his wand with some urgency. down.

"Mr. Draco Malfoy, please be investigated by the Special Investigations Unit of the Law Enforcement Division at [-]:[-] in the morning."

It was already 55:[-], and Malfoy wanted to find out about the situation with Hermione before going to the Legal Enforcement Department, and the time suddenly became urgent.He was almost the first to rush out of the elevator and walked quickly to the office of the Reversal of Incidents Team.

Turning a corner, Malfoy immediately caught Hermione's back.

"Granger!"

"Hermione, just come to my office and talk." Percy poked his head out of his office suddenly, and Malfoy saw Hermione look back at him.

As he walked past Percy's closed office door, Malfoy couldn't help wondering if Hermione had any knowledge of what had happened at King's Cross Station.

He sat silently behind his desk for 10 minutes, explained to Agnes that he was going to the Legal Enforcement Division to answer a few questions, and then came to the special investigation team's office alone.

The door was slowly locked after he entered, and behind a round table sat three wizards whom Malfoy didn't know.One was tall and thin, with a hooked nose that suggested he was a man of wisdom, and the other, a middle-aged witch with short, ear-length hair, reminded Malfoy of Umbridge.There was also a bald, bespectacled wizard who was staring at Malfoy with unabashed eyes.

"Mr. Malfoy, I'm Dedaro Digo, Head of the Special Investigations Team of the Law Enforcement Division, and these two are Mr. Quigley and Ms. Gore."

"Sir, ma'am." Malfoy sat on the black chair opposite the three of them.

"We'll start asking when you're ready." Diggle, the tall and thin wizard politely gave Malfoy some time to adapt.

"You can do it now." Malfoy put his hands on the black tabletop.

"Mr. Malfoy, are you aware of the vicious duel of wizards at King's Cross Station at 8 pm on August 11?" Diggle asked, pointing to a line of writing on the notebook.

"No." Malfoy really didn't know.

"Did any former Death Eaters try to get in touch with you around August 8th?"

"No."

..............................

While Malfoy was being questioned by the Ministry of Magic, in Percy's office, Hermione finally knew the ins and outs of the King's Cross incident.According to Percy, there was an explosion on platform nine and three-quarters on Monday afternoon, and the police from the Muggle world arrived first, and Theodore Not's body was found lying in the rubble, along with The other three wizards were seriously injured.In the sky above the exposed wizarding world platform, Muggles were terrified by the splendor of the skeleton reappearing.

It took a long time for the Aurors and the Incident Reversal team to get the chaos under control, and four intact wands were found at the scene, held by their respective owners, while another nearly exploded into pieces wand, whose owner is nowhere to be found.Judging from the flashback spell, none of the four people used the bones to reproduce the spell, and the explosion on platform nine and three quarters may have been caused by the wand that exploded out of control.

Considering that after the Second Wizarding War, there were many reformed Death Eaters living freely in the wizarding world, the Ministry of Magic decided to suppress the news until it was investigated and cleared.

Percy explained, "Of course we trust you, Hermione. But if you are allowed to participate in this work, only Malfoy is excluded, and I worry that it will attract his attention. That's why I didn't tell you the content of the work this week." .But now that we have no such concerns, I would be happy to have you participate in the follow-up restoration work of King's Cross Station."

Hermione asked, "Malfoy, don't you have to hide it from him now?"

"Diggle from the Law Enforcement Department has already questioned Malfoy this morning, yes, we don't have to hide it from him." Percy continued, "The entrance to platform nine and three-quarters has been repaired more than halfway. We are going to send two wizards and the Auror department to complete the rest of the work every afternoon, and I believe it can be completed in a day or two."

"I'd love to be a part of this work. King's Cross Station is a very special place to me." Hermione smiled.

Percy said. "Harry said the same thing. He is the leader of the Auror side. You must have cooperated very well. Hermione, shall I entrust this task to you?"

"Thank you, Percy." After Hermione left Percy's office, she thought of what Malfoy was going to say to her when she thought of Malfoy calling her name outside the office in the morning.Is Malfoy guilty?

She walked into the office in a daze, and a touch of gold came into her eyes.
