The noisy and lively Quidditch pitch in the past has begun to feel a little depressing as the hidden history is lifted one by one.

There was an unsettling silence in the air, and before they knew it, all wizards subconsciously slowed their breathing, quietly witnessing a public trial that was destined to shock the entire wizarding world and leave a mark on history.

Gradually, all that remained was Peter Pettigrew and Dumbledore's questions and answers.

“...... A full decade...... If you count the time when the Dark Lord was still alive before, that's almost eleven years...... Every night, after everyone had fallen asleep, I began to wander around Hogwarts...... Most of the time in the form of an Animagus, occasionally returning to human form and entering some secret magical room......"

"So, you found out about the Slytherin title deed when you were last school year?"

"That's right, near the end of the school year, I found the castle title deeds left behind by Salazar Slytherin in a secret compartment in the Slytherin common room, and quietly transferred them to my Weasley's rat nest. ”

"So all of this was also planned by Voldemort before?"

"Yes, we originally intended to shake your legitimacy after finding the title deed documents, but unfortunately ......"

"So let's talk about the Gringotts deal, how the hell did you mortgage Hogwarts. ”

Dumbledore read the preset questions on the parchment line by line, patiently waiting for Peter Pettigrew to answer.

In order to ensure that no flaws were left behind, this was an interrogation that had not been rehearsed in advance, and all the questions were finally settled by the three of them after repeated deliberations by the three of them except for some memories implanted in Peter's brain of Pettigrew.

The old wizard looked at the puppet-like male wizard not far away, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, originally according to the situation of most normal wizards, it was an extremely complicated matter to replace memories and implant false information in large quantities.

Because human memories and emotions are inherently a kind of existence that is quite difficult to control and describe, even an ordinary fragment of daily life will contain all kinds of subtle emotional fluctuations, once these emotional fluctuations are modified or replaced, they will form a clear small fragment, and it is difficult to achieve completely no traces.

It's just that Peter Pettigrew has been in the form of Animagus almost 99% of the time over the years.

This also means that his information acquisition in the descriptive and observable dimensions of humans will be more than one level weaker than that of normal human wizards, and more importantly, he still sleeps in the image of a mouse most of the time.

In the words of Gilderoy Lockhart, Peter Pettigrew is the easiest "blank canvas" he has seen over the years to modify and add to his memory, and with enough care, he will not risk being pierced for almost the rest of his life.

You know, they don't even need to go to great lengths to conceive too much of the complete logic of the beginning, the end, and the event, they just need to intercept the blank memory points of Peter Pettigrew every night, insert a similar experience of the castle night tour, and add the two ends of the memory fragment to connect the two ends of the dream at the beginning.

What is really complicated is the previous scenes about Sirius Black, as well as some scenes involving the specific image of Voldemort, but at the suggestion of the chief director Elena Kaslana, most of Voldemort's orders are also issued through "secret one-way transmission", "secret letter that burns after reading", "phonographic magic" and other methods.

So much so that at the end of the operation, Dumbledore almost had the illusion for a moment that these were "real history", if it weren't for the fact that he had seen with his own eyes how the bear kid piled up the gold coins at the school gate.

Compared to the straightforwardness of Avada's Death Spell, Elena's use of the Forgetting Charm is in some ways more frightening and unsettling.

In this matter, Dumbledore and Grindelwald have reached a consensus that after a while, they must promote the control of memory magic in the wizarding world at all costs, and the use of "forget and forget" must no longer be as casual as it is now.

Of course, this also proves once again the truth that the two old wizards have gradually understood these days: no matter what magic reaches Elena's hands, it can be extremely dangerous - the danger is never magic, but the white-haired balls.

Thankfully, the kid hadn't learned to master the Forgetting Spell yet.

Just as Grindelwald was slightly distracted, Peter Pettigrew's new round of statements was nearing the end.

“...... As for the gold coins, of course, it is impossible to transport them out and hide them elsewhere...... According to the Dark Lord's previous plan, I asked the goblins of Gringotts to deposit all the proceeds from the mortgage of Hogwarts into the treasury of Lestrange......"

"As for the place where the payment is made, of course my name is written on the real contract...... However, I suggest that the elves should find a random student who is doing currency exchange at Gringotts, move the signature position and documents a little, and forge a fake contract to deceive the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts......"

Regarding the content of this memory, Elena copied almost all the scenes and details in her memory.

Therefore, compared with some of the previous chatter, in the description of the scene and the specific appearance of the elves, the content of the negotiation, it seems to be extremely real and reliable, and the Ministry of Magic and the onlookers present almost immersed themselves in the voice of Peter Pettigrew again, re-experiencing the business negotiation that took place under Gringotts.

Everyone was a little dizzy, but they also raised their guard against Peter Pettigrew again.

The fact that such a wizard full of wisdom and scheming can hide his talents for decades makes people shudder just thinking about it—needless to say, Peter Pettigrew is no ordinary Death Eater at all, and he may even be the secret brain of the dark forces that people have been looking for.

"It's really a bottomless, interlocking conspiracy...... You can even blame the students......"

Cornelius Fudge sneered and chuckled, a look of disdain on his face.

"Oh, stupid and greedy goblin, do you really think that by casually pushing out a Hogwarts student and forging a contract, you can hide everyone's eyes?! Even if you don't know that you're behind it, a wise Ministry of Magic official can't be deceived by such a ridiculous lie—"

Ahem, ahem.

Dumbledore raised an eyebrow, glanced at Fudge with a smirk, and cleared his throat.

It was only then that Cornelius Fudge seemed to realize that he had once again accidentally interrupted the interrogation, skillfully bent slightly in apology, and raised his left arm rather apologetically, motioning for Dumbledore to continue the trial.

Hey, stupid and immature politicians.

Dumbledore (Grindelwald) had a hidden contempt in his eyes, and the kind smile on his face did not change in the slightest, and instead of continuing to ask Peter Pettigrew, he turned to Fudge and smiled at Fudge and raised the parchment in his hand.

"Actually, I felt that everything was almost settled and that the trial could be over. ”

Dumbledore looked calmly at the judgment seat behind him and said in a relaxed tone.

"As you can see, I've pretty much done with the interrogation here, and since Peter Pettigrew has deposited all his ill-gotten gains in Gringotts, the rest is just for the Ministry of Magic to send someone to the Gringotts Wizarding Bank to retrieve the contract - as far as I know, Bellatrix Lestrange, the rightful descendant of the Lestrange family, should still be imprisoned in Azkaban at this time, and Gringotts doesn't even have any reason to refuse to open the vault. ”

"Direct...... Why?"

Cornelius Fudge blinked, looking at Dumbledore with a confused expression.

In his understanding, it seemed that the whole trial was only halfway through, and the verdict on Peter Pettigrew had not even been completed, and Fudge was a little confused for a moment as to why Dumbledore suddenly declared it over.

What's more, Cornelius Fudge vaguely felt as if an extremely important step had been missed.

"As long as Gringotts Wizarding Bank didn't have the audacity to remove the wealth from the wizard's vault in advance, or simply deceived poor Peter Pettigrew from the start, and didn't fulfill the loan mortgage contract at all, we could all find the huge amount of money that belonged to Hogwarts in the Lestrange family's vault. ”

Glancing at the Minister of Magic, who didn't seem to fully understand what he meant, Albus Dumbledore spread his hands, looked around at the members of the Wizengamot, who were also a little confused, and explained patiently in a slow voice.

"Whether it's a portion of the funds used directly for early repayment, Hogwarts redemption, or Gringotts' unilateral early repudiation, the contract is void from the start...... In either case, we can now get the Hogwarts property deed back directly from Gringotts, right? ”

"It seems...... Not...... That's right, if we follow the process, we need to go to Gringotts to collect evidence......"

Cornelius Fudge turned his head and whispered to Amelia Bones, the head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, nodded a little uncertainly, and said in a slow voice, "And judging from the current situation, in the process of collecting evidence, the legality of the Hogwarts title deed being mortgaged is already self-evident......"

"So," Dumbledore blinked happily, "the real Death Eaters have been caught, Sirius Black has been cleared, and the Hogwarts mortgage has been resolved, so let's get ready to start voting by raising our hands to recover the assets that belong to Hogwarts...... Then, today's public meeting is all over, right?"

Asset recovery?Public trial concluded?

"Wait! It's not over yet! The trial isn't over yet!"

At this moment, the thing that had been lingering in Connelly Fudge's mind suddenly became clear, and I saw this short stout little man jump up like a burning ass and stand in front of the main judgment seat.

"Professor Dumbledore, you're done with your question, but the Ministry of Magic has another rather serious and terrible problem that needs to be answered immediately by Mr. Peter Pettigrew-"

Cornelius Fudge looked viciously at Peter Pettigrew and roared loudly.

"Peter Pettigrew, what is your relationship with the scam of the [American Magical Federal Reserve System]?!"

With Cornelius Fudge's roar, the entire Quidditch arena seemed to freeze for a moment, and the people who were immersed in Voldemort's past reacted suddenly and moved their eyes to Peter Pettigrew.

In the face of the gazes of thousands of wizards, Peter Pettigrew grinned imperceptibly and replied in a flat tone.

"Oh, this is what I opened with the elves, I'm the registrant of the company......"
