Chapter 211: Stubbornness (1)
"Hermione Granger? I know. Hearing the name, a youthful face conjured up in Fudge's mind.
Of course he knew Hermione, there weren't many students who applied for a time turner, and every one of them needed Fudge's signature before they could be taken out of the Department of Mysteries.
In recent years, only two students have been approved, one has fallen for himself, and the rest is Hermione.
"Like, she's ...... with that Ike who threw himself into the darkness," Fudge muttered, and Percy quickly leaned over and whispered in Fudge's ear, "They're a couple, Minister." ”
"Well...... Fudge nodded, "Dolores, I don't think it's allowed you to call Miss Granger over and cast such a vicious curse on your classmates...... What do you say, Dumbledore? ”
Dumbledore didn't reply, still the old god was there, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Umbridge departed, and Professor McGonagall took advantage of the brief moment to pull Marietta aside, gave her a bottle of pain-relieving potion, and exorcised the curse for her. It's a lot of trouble, even if it's her, it's really a lot of effort.
It didn't take long for Umbridge to return, and Hermione followed her, not the slightest panic.
"Well, I've been delayed for some time, and I think I can put Miss Granger's question aside for now." Fudge said, winking at Umbridge. When the latter saw this, she immediately said in her sweet and greasy voice, "Yes, Minister, Mr. Potter is more serious than Miss Granger's affairs. ”
"That's right, so Lores, could you please tell us what you know?"
"Of course." "As you may recall, I reported to you back in October that Potter had a ...... with a lot of his classmates at the Hog's Head Bar."
"Do you have proof?" Professor McGonagall asked suddenly.
"We have the testimony of Willie Widssing, who was in the bar at the time and heard every word of Potter." Umbridge replied.
"I see, that's why he was exempted from prosecution for the toilet sewage backflow time he made." Professor McGonagall raised an eyebrow, "Our justice system is amazing! ”
Hearing this, Harry suddenly remembered who Widshin was, he had heard Mr. Weasley mention his name, he was a habitual offender who used magic to play tricks on Muggle quirks.
Umbridge was unaware of Professor McGonagall's taunts, and continued, "Potter and the students met to convince them to join an illegal organization in order to learn some spells that the Ministry of Magic deemed unsuitable for students......"
"You've got something wrong, Dolores." Dumbledore suddenly interjected, "You are completely wrong to accuse such a group of being illegal at the time. If you haven't forgotten, you should know that Education Order No. 24 was promulgated after that. ”
"Yes, Headmaster, you're right." Umbridge laughed, "But all the gatherings after that, were illegal." ”
"But how do you know they met afterward? What proof do you have? ”
The smile on Umbridge's face was even worse, she let out a piercing laugh, pointed to Marietta next to her, and said, "Headmaster, she's a witness, didn't you hear it just now?" ”
"Oh? The curse on you has been lifted? That's great! Umbridge was overjoyed, and she pulled Marietta back from Professor McGonagall, clapped her hand on the shoulder, and encouraged, "Come on, tell me everything you know, how many meetings has Potter had in the last six months?" ”
Harry's heart sank, this time it should really be over. Inexplicably, she complained to Professor McGonagall that she shouldn't have touched Marietta's curse just now, so she wouldn't have spoken out.
"I don't know how many times......" Marietta's voice was small, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear, "but it must have been frequent. ”
"Awesome, kid!" Umbridge urged, "What else?" Go on, go on. ”
"I ......" Marietta's face suddenly turned pale, and the lines reappeared. This time, there were no ugly bumps, for her face cracked open, and several terrifying cracks appeared, from which blood gushed out.
"Oh my God!" Umbridge was startled and let out a piercing scream, and the pink coat that had not changed for 10,000 years was stained on it.
Fudge, who had been sitting, was also frightened, his face was extremely ugly, and he shouted at Hermione, "Lift it!" Lift it! How dare you? Lift it! ”
Hermione looked calm, she took out her wand and pointed it at Marietta, a flash of white light, and Marietta's face returned. But it was clear that the experience just now frightened her, and her body couldn't stop shaking.
"You bad ......" Looking at the blood stains on her clothes, Umbridge was angry, she angrily took out her wand and pointed it at Hermione, but before she could release the spell, she was hit by a red light, and the wand came out of her hand and fell straight into Dumbledore's hand.
Dumbledore startled Fudge by his sudden attack, and he jumped up from his chair and ducked to the side in three or two steps.
"What are you going to do, Dumbledore!" He shouted.
"Nothing, Connelly." Dumbledore put Umbridge's wand on the table, "In my school, no one can hurt my student, no matter what she does. ”
"You ......" Fudge snorted angrily and sat back in his chair and shouted at Umbridge, "Go on, Dolores, go on!" Evidence! ”
"Good...... Okay, Minister......" Umbridge responded tremblingly, looked at the expressionless Dumbledore, took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and handed it to Fudge, "Minister, here's the list of Potter's party, nailed to their secret base." ”
When he saw the parchment, Harry knew he was finished, he really didn't expect Marietta to steal it.
Sure enough, after seeing the words on the parchment, Fudge was overjoyed.
"Look what they have named themselves? Dumbledore's Army? Fudge stared at Dumbledore, "I thought it ......"
"I thought I could fire Potter, but I didn't expect to find a better one?" Dumbledore pushed his glasses and smiled, "Yes, this is my army, I organized. ”
"You can arrest me."
"Weasley!" Fudge shouted, looking overjoyed, "Have you written it all down?" His testimony, his confession, his own confession of building an army to overthrow me! ”
"Yes, it's all written, sir." Percy replied politely, with a large amount of text written on the parchment in his hand.
"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, Dolores, did you think of it? I didn't expect that! Fudge glanced at Percy's parchment, a big smile on his face, and said to Dumbledore, "You will be escorted to the Ministry of Magic for trial, and then I will send you to Azkaban." ”
"I think you're getting one thing wrong, Connelly." Dumbledore's eyes were fixed on Fudge, and his tone was unhurried, "You don't really think Azkaban can keep me, do you?" ”
"And, what makes you think I'm going to be tied?"
