"Malfoy was originally sent by you?" Diana was slightly stunned, and then reacted: "I was still wondering before, obviously I don't have a deep friendship with their couple......"

"Sort of. Jon spread his hands, not denying the other's words.

At the same time, he said with some complaint: "I really don't know why you chose to stay in Azkaban at that time, and why did you say that thing during the interrogation...... To be honest, it's getting very, very difficult right now, and I can't think of any good way to do it......"

“...... Just a few minutes ago, you confessed to the entire crime, leaving no room for excuses...... In fact, the Minister was still very sympathetic to you, and was trying to do a little favor at the time, and it would have been much better if you had followed her and continued to talk about it, admitting that you had fallen under the Imperius Curse or something...... And now, with Scrimgeour's character, your best ending now is also Azkaban's life imprisonment, he is the head of the Law Enforcement Division, and he has a lot of power in this regard......"

Just as Jon finished his complaint, Diana opened her mouth, but couldn't help but shudder.

Apparently, she had been in Azkaban for too long, and she didn't seem to have been influenced by the Dementors.

Jon flicked his wand, and the silver-gray Ironeater Patronus appeared beside him, and the whole cabin instantly warmed up - the ironeater was an adult, more than a yard long, fat as a bear, plump and rich, with a short round head and a short tail, and it swung its scalpel-sharp claws at Diana, looking a little hostile.

"Your wand is now under the control of the Law Enforcement Division, I'm afraid I won't be able to get it back for you...... If you don't mind, you can use this one first...... It may not be too easy though. Jon said as he pulled out a wand.

This was Barty Crouch Jr.'s wand, which he had barely needed since Jon had kept his elderberry wand.

Diana glanced curiously at Jon's Patronus, but she didn't reach for the wand.

She smiled, and after no longer being affected by the Dementors, she was no longer so embarrassed, and seemed to have regained some of her former grace and poise:

"I can't leave Azkaban, that would mean I'm going to be a fugitive through and through......"

Lucius Malfoy is also a fugitive now, but he and his wife are at ease in Sweden. Jon replied calmly.

"I have two daughters, they are still young, and if I leave Azkaban, it will cause them a lot of trouble...... I've been sorry for them since I was a child, because they were born with a curse because of me...... I can't do anything like this again, I owe them so much......"

"But now, is it the right thing to do if they worry about your safety all day?" Jon couldn't help but ask.

To be honest, he really didn't understand the choice made by the other party.

Diana only smiled mildly and did not continue the discussion on the issue.

She began to answer Jon's next question:

"As for what I said during the interrogation...... All I can say is...... I'm just telling the truth. I made a wrong choice that I may regret for the rest of my life, and I need to live with the consequences of it......"

Diana spoke, silent.

Jon was silent for a moment, then spoke, "You don't have to blame yourself like that...... That choice at that time did not cause any bad consequences...... Dirk Chryswell, Amos Diggory, Cuthbert Motridge, they were all eventually released by the Death Eaters, almost unscathed......"

Diana looked up, and she smiled and shook her head at Jon as she gestured with her eyes that he didn't have to say any more.

There is a tacit understanding between the two people, and they also know each other, and they do not discuss those "sensitive" issues between the two.

......

"Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you yet......" Diana diverted the topic and took the initiative to speak, "Of course, I don't know how to thank you......"

“...... You saved Astoria's life and freed her from the abyss of the curse, and I can't express my gratitude to you in words......"

“...... I would also like to congratulate you...... In Azkaban, I heard from you that you became the youngest Headmaster in the history of Hogwarts...... I now understand why Albus Dumbledore values and trusts you so much......"

“...... I also know what a mistake I have committed, and what a bad result I have almost done......"

She said intermittently, as if she were giving her last words.

Jon frowned and interrupted her, "Madam, you are now released on bail from Azkaban and can be given a period of 'freedom' ......"

“...... If you really love your two daughters, you should take advantage of this time to spend more time with them, they are going crazy for you...... I'll figure out the rest of the stuff again. "I will. Diana nodded, with a very serious look on her face: "But you really don't have to worry about my affairs anymore...... Really, Jon...... Thank you!"

When Jon's name was spoken, there was something odd about her tone.

Jon didn't respond to her words, but said calmly, "Then allow me to send you home, ma'am." ”

"Okay, thank you!"

......

The door to the small room opened, and a young, Auror-dressed wizard entered.

"Diana Greengrass!" Auror's voice was cold, "You are now allowed to go home on bail until the Law Enforcement Division finally pronounces your sentence." During this time, you are forbidden to use any magic, and you are forbidden to have contact with any wizards other than relatives, bailers, and you are forbidden to leave a hundred yards around Greengrass Manor!"

"Okay, I understand!" Diana nodded, "I'll follow the rules of the Ministry of Magic." ”

"The Ministry of Magic will monitor your whereabouts, don't leave anything to chance!" the young Auror snorted coldly, turning his gaze to Jon.

His stern expression gradually softened, and a heartfelt smile appeared on his handsome face.

"Nice to meet you, Jon!" he gave the Headmaster of Hogwarts a warm hug, "Honestly, I was crazy happy when I received Hannah's letter!"

"Long time no see, Cedric!" Jon replied, a little overwhelmed by the other man's breath.

This young Auror turned out to be just-

Cedric Diggory.
