The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 466 Aggressive
The tenth courtroom was quiet, only the sound of high heels hitting the ground.

The voice came from Ida. Instead of urging the people who were trying the case, she paced slowly in front of Harry.Although she didn't speak, every step she took seemed to be stepping on the hearts of everyone.

Dementor, Little Whinging, how is this possible?

None of the Ministry of Magic officials and members of the Wizengamot present believed that dementors would go to Little Whinging, let alone that dementors would attack Harry Potter.

Instead of staying in Azkaban, the dementor ran to the Muggle area, and happened to meet the only wizard in this area!How big is this odds? Not even Ludo Bagman, a bad gambler, would bet on it.

There is no way this could happen!
The crowd finally stopped being silent, and the members of the Wizengamot on both sides began to whisper, discussing this impossible event.

Ada stopped pacing, and she carefully observed Fudge's face.On the day she learned that Harry was attacked by a dementor, Ada believed that it was Fudge's work, or at least an insider.

Judging from Fudge's expression today, Mr. Minister doesn't seem to know, otherwise he shouldn't have such an expression on his face. Ada would never have misread the flash of shock.

The dementors under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic attacked Harry Potter for no reason, but the minister himself had no knowledge, so who did the two dementors obey?
Is it Voldemort's internal correspondent at the Ministry of Magic?However, wasn't Voldemort always obsessed with killing Harry himself, so why did he suddenly do it to someone else?
This thing is getting more and more interesting.

"Dementors?" said Ms. Burns, her bushy eyebrows raised high, her monocle seeming to be slipping off. "What do you mean, child?"

"I mean, there were two dementors popping up in the alley, and they were coming straight at me and my cousin!"

Fudge's harsh jeers suddenly sounded in the courtroom, and then some people followed suit.

Fudge said: "This joke is not funny at all. If you think such nonsense can get away with punishment, then you are very wrong!"

"How could a dementor be in Little Whinging, under the orders of the Ministry of Magic?" Ms. Burns said, "I still don't quite understand what you mean, child."

It sounded like Ms Burns was questioning Harry from the Ministry's point of view, thinking he was lying.In fact, Ms. Burns asked him to be more specific, and pointed the finger at Fudge and his cronies.

Who would authorize a Dementor to attack without Fudge's order?Or, who would dare to do this?
But Harry didn't understand Ms. Burns' hint, and took her question as a forced question.Of all the people present, Harry only trusted Ida.

"I'm not lying!" Harry said aloud, his anger softening the words and fueling the jeers from the others.

"There were two of them, blocked from both ends of the alley, and everything became so dark and cold, my cousin touched them and tried to escape—"

"Enough!" Fudge yelled at Harry, "Stop telling the lies you made up in advance! That will only insult our ears!"

Fudge stood up from his seat and looked down on Ida and Harry with a haughty expression, as if looking at two weak bugs.

"It does sound absurd and unbelievable." Ada said, "But in fact we have a witness, she is not a Muggle, and she can prove that what Harry Potter said was true."

"The only registered wizard in Little Whinging is Harry Potter! And Muggles can't see dementors." Fudge said, his eyes fixed on Ida, as if doing so would let Ada know Difficult and retreat like.

Hearing this, Ada made a very sad expression, and she said: "Our witnesses can see dementors. Unfortunately, this lady did not become a wizard."

Not a Muggle, and not being a wizard, there is only one possibility.

Fudge said haughtily, "So the witness is a Squib? A Squib's testimony is hardly convincing." Looking to his left and right, he asked, "Can a Squib see a Dementor?"

When they heard that the witness was a Squib, the Wizengamots present all expressed disappointment, and they also did not trust the Squib's testimony.

In the wizarding world, there has always been a chain of contempt of blood, and Squibs are among them, and their status is similar to that of Muggle-born wizards and Muggles.Even if the Squib was of noble blood.

Some wizards even regard Squibs as a disgrace to the wizarding world, an existence that should be eliminated more than Mudbloods and Muggles.

"Actually, they can see it!" Ada stepped forward and said loudly, "Mr. Minister, what you just said is really disappointing! Even if you can't treat them equally, as the leader of the magic world You shouldn't directly insult and discriminate against them like this."

The word Squib itself is an insult, maybe not as vicious as "Mudblood," but it's a pejorative.

The minister of the Ministry of Magic almost openly discriminates and insults such people, which is enough to show how serious discrimination is in the magic world.

Ada's words failed to cause any waves among the people in the courtroom. They felt that the Minister was right and that the Squib's testimony was not convincing.As for the discrimination and insult that Ada said...

Just discriminate, just insult, what's wrong?
"Everybody's time is precious here, and we don't have time for a Squib babbling, Drizzt. If you have nothing else to submit, I think it's time for sentencing..." Fudge said maliciously.

Ada started walking up and down in front of Fudge again, much to the Minister's dismay.

"No, according to the Wizengamot Charter of Rights, the defendant has the right to call witnesses to testify in court." Ada looked at Ms. Burns, "Is that so, Director?"

"Yes," said Ms. Burns, "it is."

"We don't want to hear a Squib nonsense!" said Fudge viciously, "Harry Potter cast spells in front of Muggles, the evidence is solid, stop trying to quibble!"

Ada took another step forward, and she was standing closer to Fudge, so close that she could give Fudge two punches with bang bang.

She said: "I don't know why Mr. Minister is so eager to convict Harry Potter, and even skip the proper trial process. Shouldn't the trial be fair and impartial? To ensure justice, it should follow the normal trial Go through the process. If necessary, part or all of the trial process needs to be disclosed to the public.”

"You guys just used this courtroom for judging felons just for a trivial matter of casting spells outside the school, and now you tell me that your time is precious... I don't really understand your concept of time. Also, You obviously just want to throw Harry Potter straight into Azkaban, and let him fend for himself there, just like Sirius Black. If that's the case, why hold a trial?"

Ada stopped looking at Fudge, and scanned the high benches on both sides, and then said: "Now, I file a lawsuit against the Ministry of Magic, the Department of Legal Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, and the Wizengamot to sue Cornelius. Oswald Fudge murdered. He wasted my precious time and squandered my precious life."

There were loud noises, and the officials of the Ministry of Magic present and the members of the Wizengamot fell into silence again.

They thought Dumbledore would come to defend Harry Potter today, but it turned out that only one of Dumbledore's students came; Lido's stupid trick; they thought that this young lady was just better at fighting, but they didn't expect that she could not only fight, but also speak well, and what she said was well-founded.

Since entering the courtroom, Ada has been performing very well, without overstepping the rules, neither defying the Wizengamot nor rushing into court.In the face of Fudge's aggressiveness, she did not have any faux pas, and she won the goodwill of many Wizengamots.

After all, who wouldn't want such an outstanding child to be his own.It would be perfect if it didn't involve Dumbledore...

Just when everyone had a good impression of Ada, she opened her bloody mouth and showed her thick fangs.

Suing the Minister of Magic for premeditated murder because Cornelius Fudge wasted her time... that... we got it wrong!
At this moment, everyone present knew why Dumbledore asked her to defend.She hadn't come to defend at all, she had come to take Harry Potter away and slap the Ministry of Magic in the face along the way.

Dumbledore, his heart can be punished!
"Oh...I forgot, this is England, cover the sky with one hand..." Ada's voice sounded again in the courtroom, and these words made everyone feel cold for no reason.

But Ada had no intention of stopping at all.

In a voice that everyone could hear, she said to herself: "If I am lucky enough to walk out of the Ministry of Magic today, I will definitely file a lawsuit against the Ministry of Magic of other countries and the International Federation of Wizards. This matter is endless!"
