Chapter 531: Verdict
"Who is the Ministry of Magic going to try and want me to be a witness?"
"Draco Malfoy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
“…… No wonder. ”
According to the time of the notice, Darren came to the Ministry of Magic under the leadership of Hermione, walked into the hall, and saw that there were people coming and going, everyone was in a hurry, busy, and it was no wonder, although in addition to the students of the Order of the Phoenix and Hogwarts, there were many more people here, but after all, the number of people was much smaller than before, and correspondingly, everyone's work should also increase.
Following Hermione, they came to the courtroom under the Department of Mysteries, which was originally used for this, and the last time Voldemort fell, it was also here that the Death Eaters were judged, "You go to that room first and wait, and when the court needs it, you go over again, I have to go in and prepare." Hermione said to him.
Following Hermione's instructions, Darren saw a room with a metal nameplate on the door that read "Witness Lounge", he opened the door, walked in, and saw that there were several chairs inside, and a row of sofas, enough for several people to rest.
While Darren was waiting boredly, the door suddenly opened, and someone entered, it was Harry, and a witch with a graceful figure and a parchy face, whom he knew, it was Lady Rosmerta, the proprietress of the Three Broomsticks.
"Ah, it's Darren! you're here too!" said Harry.
"Hello, Harry, Miss Rosmerta!"
"Hello, Sean. ”
"Oh, you guys?"
"The Ministry of Magic has informed me to come today to testify against Draco Malfoy. Harry said, and Miss Rosmerta nodded that she was the same.
After waiting in the witness lounge for an unknown amount of time, Percy finally pushed the door open, "Darren, you can come over." ”
Darren stood up, motioned to Harry and Miss Rosmerta to go out first, and left after Percy, and he came to a large room, surrounded by torches that shimmered with light, with no pictures on the walls, no decoration, and rows of stepped benches, like a lecture hall, where some people were already sitting, but no one would think that it was for classes, and in the middle of the room was a chair, and on it was a man, Draco Malfoy, with chains tying his limbs tightly.
Looking up, in the middle of the row of benches in front of him, sat Mr. Weasley, who, according to Hermione, was in charge of the trial, "Now the witnesses are there, please give your full name." Mr. Weasley exclaimed.
"Darren Sean Lee. ”
"Today, the Ministry of Magic court is going to try Draco Malfoy and needs you to speak as a witness, can you be sure that what you say is the truth?"
"Yes. ”
"Do the others have any doubts about Darren Sean Lee as a witness?" Mr. Weasley asked the crowd around him, and no one objected.
"Alright, let's ask Draco Malfoy, following Tom Riddle's orders, to attack Darren Sean Lee in the Slytherin common room of Hogwarts School, and use the dark arts, and ask Mr. Sean to describe the situation. ”
Darren didn't expect to ask about it, Hermione didn't tell him any news before, and she was really responsible, "Okay, that's after the elimination of Voldemort......"
At Mr. Weasley's request, Darren recounted what had happened, and when he spoke of Tom Riddle using a fire in the Slytherin common room, he could hear a low exclamation from all around.
“…… That's the way it is," Darren concluded.
"Okay," Mr. Weasley nodded, "you can leave, thank you very much for describing what you've seen here." ”
According to Mr. Weasley, after leaving the courtroom, Darren knew that Hermione would not come out until the trial was completed, so he returned to the witness lounge, where he waited for the entire trial to be completed.
Seeing Darren, Harry and Miss Rosmerta gathered around and asked what questions had been asked in the courtroom, and he told him everything he had just seen.
"Just tell me what happened?" asked Harry.
"That's what I do, anyway," Darren shrugged, "and this should be the evidence needed for a court trial." “
Before they could say a few words, Percy came again, this time it was Miss Rosmerta who was called away, leaving Harry and Darren in the common room, "The court asked you about what happened that day in the Slytherin common room, what do you think will ask me? There are so many things to do with Draco Malfoy, I don't know if I can remember it then." Harry asked.
"I don't know," Darren shook his head, this was the truth, he was also in the courtroom to know what the court would ask, "it must be those things that Draco did and broke the law." “
"Draco is a Death Eater, that's enough," Harry muttered, "It's obvious, what else is there to ask?"
"How do you sentence, criminal, Death Eater, crime, Death Eater, crime, Death Eater?" Darren laughed, "That's good, find out what you've done, and give an account to the victim." “
After a while, Miss Rosmerta returned, and she had only been there to testify for a short time, "The court asked me about Draco's use of the Imperius Curse on me to control my attempt to murder Dumbledore, which resulted in Katie and Professor Slughorn being injured. “
"I see," Darren nodded, looking at Harry, and if he said that, this guy was going to testify to what Draco had done on the night Professor Dumbledore was killed......
"Draco was of course attempted to kill Professor Dumbledore because he participated in the Death Eaters and was on Voldemort's orders, but in the process, he caused both Katie and Slughorn to be injured, and it was very dangerous, deliberately harming others, causing serious consequences, and also helped the Death Eaters break through Hogwarts' defensive magic, resulting in the killing of Professor Dumbledore and many injuries, so he was finally sentenced to life imprisonment and never released. “
Hermione told Darren about the final trial decision, for this result, although according to Darren's idea, the death penalty is the best, but he has brought too many changes, this point, forget it, and the Ministry of Magic's life imprisonment is life imprisonment, at least not like some funny country, the maximum punishment is 21 years in prison, and there must be a TV and game consoles in it......
