Professor of Pharmacy at Hogwarts

Chapter 222, Final Judgment

The results came out a little slowly.

Alexis stood behind the chair and looked at the courtroom that was about to become a vegetable market. Ten minutes ago, Dumbledore announced the start of voting, and then the group of people argued for ten minutes.

Whitehorn wanted to show off his acting skills, but was severely stopped by Ms. Amelia and Dumbledore.

"Stop your charade, Mr. Whitehorn. This is the Wizengamot and it doesn't work."

Amelia scolded fiercely.

Then, Dumbledore, Amelia and Rufus seemed to have differences, and the three of them got together and kept mumbling.

The clerk not far from them was at a loss as to whether he should write this down.

Alexis sounded a little bored.

That Ms. Rozier was promoting her appearance theory that "Mr. Whitehorn is so charming that he is not a bad guy at first glance" and joined several other Whitehorn fans to attack Alec crazily. Sith.

"Alexis can even kill the mysterious man, there is no one he dares to kill."

The angle of this argument is very strange.

"That's right! No matter what the mysterious man did, he killed someone. This is a fact. There are so many Aurors watching at the scene."

"Yes! I support Ms. Rozier! Alexis should arrest the mysterious man and hand him to the Wizengamot for trial! Oh, Merlin! He is simply committing a crime!"

Several people chattered and quickly reached a consensus.

The congressman sitting next to these people subconsciously moved to the side.

At this moment, they were connected to Alexis' minds, and they also discovered that their colleague's brain didn't seem to be enough.

The three of Dumbledore seemed to reach a consensus. He knocked on the table, barely maintained order, and then began to vote.

Randolph wrung his hands together nervously and sat upright involuntarily.The actor on the other side also straightened his back, stretched his neck like a duck, and leaned forward.

Alexis crossed his chest and glanced back and forth at the council seats. He just felt bored.

Soon, the final results were produced.

Regarding whether the punishment for Randolph Badmore should be modified, Dumbledore and Amelia first raised their hands and voted in favor, while Rufus chose to abstain.

Since then, more than 30 MPs have voted in favor, a dozen have voted against, and the rest have chosen to abstain.

Regarding the question of whether Whitehorn was guilty of frame-up and other charges, only Dumbledore raised his hand, Amelia chose to abstain, and Rufus chose to object.

Behind them, most congressmen believed that Whitehorn's methods were normal business methods and did not constitute a crime.

Finally Dumbledore announced:

The penalty imposed on Randolph Badmore in the Firebolt incident was revised to waive the compensation of more than 90, while Whitehorn was acquitted.

Once the final decision was announced, the small group of Whitehorn supporters immediately burst into cheers.

Alexis sneered, picked up Randolph and left.

"Let's go."

"It doesn't matter, Randolph, we can kill that clown off the court as well."

Alexis said to Randolph.

……

After leaving the courtroom, because of Alexis' presence, the treatment they received was naturally not comparable to the last time Randolph was alone.

As soon as they came out, several reporters caught up with them and asked about the results.

Alexis put away her emotions and told the reporters the results openly while walking.

He even recounted the uproar that occurred in the courtroom. When they heard that some congressmen believed that Alexis should be arrested and sentenced to "intentional homicide", the reporters let out a burst of exclamation.

"Mr. Alexis, are you satisfied with this result?"

Alexis paused, shrugged, and gave a sarcastic smile.

"satisfy?"

"Oh, yes, yes, of course I'm satisfied."

"I'm not only satisfied, but also very happy. I'm lucky that I didn't get burned. After all, half an hour ago, someone suggested arresting me."

"It's such an honor for me. It's such an honor for me to be able to stand here and answer your questions and breathe the air, tsk tsk~"

The reporters’ eyes lit up, and they had tomorrow’s headline.

The hero is dissatisfied with the congressman's random accusations and attacks the Wizengamot!

“Will you still file a review request?”

Alexis shook his head, "No way." He said, "After all, in a place where judgment is not based on facts but on personal preferences and emotions, what hope can I have, right?"

"I should feel lucky that this time our opponent is just the owner of a broomstick company. Yes, that's right. Although Whitehorn is very powerful, he is not that kind of big star."

“If we had faced the England Seekers this time, I don’t think we would have even needed to walk into the room, we would have already lost.”

At this point, Alexis showed an expression as if he suddenly remembered something. "That's right." He looked specifically to confirm that he was facing an interview with the "Daily Prophet" and continued.

"For the next words, I hope you can publish it clearly and completely without changing a single letter."

The reporters’ eyes almost turned into light bulbs and they nodded quickly.

Alexis organized some words and said solemnly

"I would like to remind all readers, based on my personal experience, that you need to establish yourself as a star, make yourself as well known and popular as possible, because the Wizengamot is based on popularity and audience perception. And that’s where right and wrong are decided.”

"Believe me, you will thank me one day."

After saying that, Alexis shrugged, "Okay, I've finished what I need to say, and I have to find someone...how to say that word..."

"Agent, yes, I should also find an agent to help make myself popular, otherwise you may only see me in a place like Azkaban next time. The crime is—— "

"Maybe I'm not popular enough."

After saying that, Alexis took Randolph and walked away, leaving a bunch of reporters looking at each other.

These words were pointing at the Wizengamot's nose and yelling.

But they didn't have time to react. Soon, Whitehorn came out, followed by Dumbledore and his party.

The two groups reacted very differently to Alexis' exact words as relayed by reporters.

Whitehorn wished that Alexis would say more words like this, so as to offend all the people behind him.

"I think it's time for me to go and maybe the councilors can answer your questions."

Whitehorn looked back and said with a smile.

Soon, Dumbledore and others were surrounded.

"Did he really say that?"

Dumbledore asked.
