Hogwarts: Where are the Pokémon?

Chapter 161 Xia Lin: Pokémon Don't Belong to Wizards

"You are the current Pokémon master class professor at Hogwarts, Charlene Gold?" The judge looked at Charlene sweating profusely. At this moment, he suddenly felt empty, and the previous pressure disappeared in vain. not see.At this time, there was only a young wizard in front of him.

"Yes."

The wizard responded unhurriedly. He was very handsome and had a smile on his face. It seemed that he was not here for trial but for some fan meeting.

If Wizards Weekly didn't have a smile like that printed on its cover, it would be a bit of a vain name.

The presiding judge was in a trance for a short time, but then he came back from the trance and said immediately: "Very well, the defendant, Charlene Gold, you are accused of violating Article 13 of the International Law of Wizarding Secrecy: any Magical activities that are not noticed by members of the world (Muggles) are seriously illegal. At the same time, here, the British Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, and the current Headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Percival Wool Frick Bryan Dumbledore filed an accusation that your actions violated Article 70 of No. [-] of the International Law of Wizarding Secrecy."

"I've been accused too? I've never heard of that." Dumbledore walked up to Xia Lin with his head held high. He raised his head, but looked at those people as if looking down.

"That's right, besides you, there is also the British Ministry of Magic." The wizard who read out the regulations nodded and continued, "According to No. Responsibility for all magical animals, humans and ghosts within its jurisdiction. Should any such animal become a danger to Muggle society, or come to their attention, that country's governing body for magic will be disciplined by the International Confederation of Wizards. "

"Obviously, the British wizarding community has mismanaged Charlene Gold and his magic-babies, and Hogwarts has also failed to do this. Once Charlene Gold is convicted , the International Federation of Wizards will make corresponding judgments on the British Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts!"

At this time, Fudge also walked down with Burns, standing on the other side of Xia Lin.

"It seems that our fate may have to be handed over to you." Dumbledore said half-jokingly.

"Excuse me, the defendant, did you raise a group of creatures named Pokémon?"

"That's right." Xia Lin nodded immediately in response.

"May I ask the defendant, is there a comic called "Pokémon" published in the Muggle world in the Neon area? And it has been widely circulated in the Muggle world?"

"Yes."

Xia Lin nodded straightforwardly to the two questions, which made Picqueli, who had suffered from him just now, very proud.Now she was sitting in the trial seat, although the surroundings were pitch black, the joy on her face could not be concealed.

"Excuse me, are the Pokémon raised by the defendant at Hogwarts the same species as the creatures in the Pokémon comics published in the Muggle world?"

"That's right." Xia Lin nodded again.

"Very good—" the presiding judge lightly tapped the gavel in his hand, and said happily, "Since the defendant confessed to the crime he committed, then—"

"Wait a minute, sir." Xia Lin interrupted him immediately.

Now, Xia Lin is quite happy that the judicial process in the wizarding world is not exactly the same as that in the Muggle world, otherwise he might not have the opportunity to speak now.

"I have an objection."

"What?" The presiding judge immediately raised his voice, and the rest of the judges continued to whisper, "You have objections? But you have already admitted it yourself! And the Magic Congress of America has provided evidence!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Picqueli immediately asked several wizards to bring over the photos they had taken.

"This is a photo taken by the Aurors of the Magical Congress of America at Hogwarts. On the other side is the content of the comics you published in the Muggle world. The creatures appearing on it are obviously the same species. What else do you have to say? "

"With all due respect, sir—" Fudge couldn't help interjecting, "it's not a big deal, it's just a few animals, and I've read that so-called 'cartoon' too, and there isn't a word of wizard in it. Who doesn't know How many times a year are those magical animals in the wizarding world witnessed by Muggles? The largest horse-shaped water monster in the world, which lives in Scotland, is called the Loch Ness Monster by Muggles, and has been witnessed repeatedly; and in XZ, there are also a large number of snowmen witnessed incident."

"This is not the same thing, Mr. Fudge. In addition, we have been dealing with these sightings. Now there is a permanent International Ranger base in the Himalayas." The presiding judge said impatiently.

"It's been dealt with, but the legends still don't stop." Fudge whispered.

However, in this enclosed space, no matter how soft his voice was, it could still reverberate continuously. After falling into the ears of those people, it immediately made their faces very ugly.

"Only legends, no Muggle would take those things as true."

"There are only comics here, sir. No Muggle has ever seen a real Pokémon. To them, this is no different from a fairy tale. Don't you, Mr. Judge, take the story of Death and the Three Brothers seriously?" Fudge Can't help but sneer.But this made Xia Lin and Dumbledore look at each other.

When Fudge said this, the judge's face immediately turned livid. He could only forcefully ask Fudge not to speak, and emphasized that this is not the same thing.

"Don't want me to talk? I don't want to get involved in these things? Do you think I'm free now? Voldemort is still showing off his power. If you are willing to do something serious, you might as well send him a court hearing letter first, lest he spend a few days Come to Paris and burn Notre-Dame of the Muggles." After saying this, Fudge sat down angrily.

This statement was not very hurtful and extremely insulting, and the judges wanted to refute it, but Voldemort was indeed a lunatic, and he could really do similar things.But if they really wanted them to deal with Voldemort, wouldn't that be courting death?

So they could only pretend that they didn't hear, and continued to bombard Xia Lin.

"Charlene Gold, you make those - pictures in the Muggle world, trying to show the secrets of the wizarding world, your messy animals in front of the Muggles, do you know how much trouble this has caused us ? The law of secrecy has been implemented for centuries, and this is the first time that such a bad incident as yours has appeared!"

"The International Federation of Wizards does not allow you to continue doing this kind of thing!"

"You need to immediately hand over your animals to the International Federation of Wizards, jointly controlled by the Ministry of Magic all over the world, and at the same time swear not to reveal their existence. Otherwise, we can only ask you to go to jail for a while."

"what?"

Before Xia Lin could speak, Fudge jumped up screaming.

"Confiscating the Pokémon? Don't even think about it!" He was so angry that his face swelled as red as a persimmon, "You guys, want someone to hand over the Pokémon with just one word? Let me tell you, don't even think about it! "

"What does this have to do with you?"

"What does it have to do with me?" Fudge was arguing with them blushingly, and it seemed that if Burns hadn't pulled him, he might have rushed to fight those people, "After Voldemort's resurrection, it was Charlene Gold Mr. generously lent the Pokémon he raised to us Aurors, so that we have the ability to fight against Death Eaters without causing a large number of casualties! And what about the International Federation of Wizards? I have asked you for help several times, How much did you contribute, including the last Wizarding War?
"Or should I say, what does this have to do with you? You sit here and don't care about the life and death of us British wizards, but want us to hand over the Pokémon that resisted Voldemort?"

Fudge looked at them almost as he looked at an enemy.

"I think if this is the case, I think the British wizarding community might as well simply withdraw from the International Federation of Wizards and Voldemort will be overthrown. Then you can fight him slowly."

For a moment, there was no sound in the venue, only Fudge's words were still echoing in those people's mouths.

Many people looked at Dumbledore, as if hoping that he would do something.But Dumbledore said nothing.

"Albus, I don't think you'll allow this to happen?"

"What—you mean me? Sorry. I'm still on trial. If I'm convicted, I'm afraid I'll have to go to Azkaban. Or let me go to Nurmengard, at least There is another companion there." Dumbledore looked like I was busy now and couldn't care so much.

Those who were still showing off their power just now immediately had a bitter face.

If Britain gave up fighting Voldemort, that lunatic would probably expand his power to the whole world immediately.Many of the French wizards present were as dark as their skin.They don't want to provoke another madman to Paris.

Xia Lin watched their performance with great interest, as if watching a monkey show.He was supposed to be the main character, but at this moment he seemed like a spectator.

Fudge winked at him quietly, this kid really did a good job.Especially after uniting with Malfoy, it brought back the horror of Voldemort.

At this point, the trial has apparently reached a deadlock.

Charlene Gold's so-called anti-secrecy law is really not worth mentioning in the eyes of many people. It is harmless to publish a few comics on a large scale. Anyway, no Muggles have discovered those creatures, let alone leaked the existence of the wizarding world, let alone Creatures like charmanders have become common legend among Muggles all over the world.It was Voldemort who was the real danger.

"Okay—I think there's a case about Charlene Gold's breach of secrecy, which may need to be suspended—" At this point someone had begun to joke, intending to expose the matter.

At this point, it seemed that Xia Lin had almost won, but he was not satisfied with the result.

"Pause? I don't think it's necessary, sir." He imposed a loud voice for himself, and immediately drowned out all voices.

"what?"

Many people who were about to leave the table came back, and they had already offered the steps. Didn't expect this Charlene Gold to be ungrateful?

"The allegations against me by the Magical Congress of the United States are obviously unfounded. As for the claim that I violated the International Wizarding Secrecy Act, it is even more nonsense." Xia Lin said with a smile.

"But you've admitted before—"

"Perhaps you are mistaken, sir. What is the relationship between what I have done and revealing the secrets of wizards?" Xia Lin looked at him and said slowly, "The International Wizarding Secrecy Act only targets wizards themselves and magical animals. What does it have to do with my Pokémon?"

"You're just making excuses."

"Exaggerated words? Pokémon have never belonged to the magic world. Can you find any traces of Pokémon in other places besides me?" Xia Lin's eyes were burning, as if a ball of fire was looking straight at him everyone.

It is because of Xia Lin that there are Pokémon, not because of the magic world.

"All Pokémon are all cultivated by me. Remember, sir, I brought Pokémon to the wizarding world, not Pokémon from the wizarding world to the Muggle world. In this case, it has nothing to do with secrecy. What does it have to do with the law? There is not a single word in the secrecy law, which prohibits Pokémon from appearing in the sight of Muggles!"

Xia Lin took it for granted, and that's the truth, before this man brought those magical species to beat up those pure bloods, who had heard of the name Pokémon?

It's just that those wizards took it for granted that Pokémon and magical animals were equated.

"No matter what you think, this is my answer. If you are not satisfied, you can find any Pokémon and bring it to me, but obviously, this is impossible."

In fact, there are not no Pokémon living outside, but——

If they could really help find those sleeping legendary Pokémon and Eudemons, Xia Lin would thank them instead.

"This-this can only prove that you have cultivated new varieties of magical animals without permission. I have to remind you that this is an added crime. I remember that it is illegal to cultivate new varieties of magical animals without permission in the British wizarding world, right?" As he spoke, he looked at Fudge.

But now Fudge was playing with his nails.

And Xia Lin looked at him with eyes like looking at a fool: "Sorry, you don't really think that someone can breed more than a thousand kinds of magical animals?"

The other party immediately realized how stupid what he just said was.

Even for Hagrid, a young expert in breeding, it is very difficult to hybridize a magical animal.

Those so-called fried-tailed snails seem to be a new species, but in fact?If there is no human intervention, it will not be long before they will kill each other until there is no one left.

"In addition, I can also produce another piece of evidence that proves that Pokémon has nothing to do with the magic world." Xia Lin released the Pokémon directly.

A Pikachu jumped out.

"Let's see—"

All craned their necks.

"Did any of you sense magic in it?"

"Pokémon never belonged to wizards, they belonged to me!"
