I swung my greatsword at Hogwarts

Enraged by their confused words, Harry said loudly, "I'm because of the dementors!"

"Dementor?" Old Barty stared at him, "You can explain it in detail."

"At that time, two dementors appeared in the alley, and they rushed towards me and my cousin!"

"You should know what you're talking about?" Old Barty sternly yelled, "That's a very serious accusation against a dementor. Do you know what you're talking about?"

The Wizengamores, with the exception of John, were all talking in whispers.

They were all very surprised at the presence of dementors in the Muggle enclave.

"I know it well!" cried Harry. "There were two of them, blocking one end of the alley, and everything was getting so dark and cold, that my cousin touched them and tried desperately to get away."

Old Barty seemed to be thinking about why the dementors were there.

Dumbledore cleared his throat, and the Wizengamot stopped discussing and looked at him quietly, like a disciple listening to guidance.

"Actually, we have a witness who can prove that the dementors were in the alley," he said. "I mean, a witness other than Dudley Dursley."

Old Batty said loudly with a straight face: "You have the power to bring your witness."

"I brought her," said Dumbledore. "She's just outside the door."

Mrs. Figg was invited, a Squib and her first visit to such a place.

Dumbledore conjured a chair for her to sit on.

"Full name?" Old Barty asked aloud.

"Arabella Dorian Figg," said Mrs. Figg with a trembling voice.

Old Batty motioned for her to continue talking.

"I'm a resident of Little Whinging, right next to Harry Potter's."

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Figg described in detail about the appearance of the dementor in the alley.

When asked what the dementors had done, Mrs. Figg grew more confident.

"They jumped at the two boys, one fell down, the other dropped his wand, tried to pick it up and attacked, but was entangled by the dementor."

"Some blacks appeared and took away the dementors that had jumped on the fallen boy. Another boy seized the opportunity and used the Patronus to fight back."

"Wait." Old Batty said sharply with sharp eyes, "What are you talking about black?"

With fear and confusion in her eyes, Mrs. Figg said, "I don't know, it's a kind of black silk thread, it's wrapped around the dementor, and the dementor is very scared."

"It's helping Harry Potter, can I take it that way?" said Barty Sr. "Unknown Black."

"I think so." Mrs. Figg nodded.

Judging from the situation at the time, the black silk thread didn't do anything to Harry, but just took away the dementor.

Old Batty looked at Harry with a straight face and said, "Did you use the Patronus Charm before you were about to be rescued?"

"No, no, that black makes people uncomfortable." Harry opened his mouth to explain.

Old Batty interrupted him and said, "Do you think this will make you more noticeable?"

"Minister Crouch," said Dumbledore softly, "I don't think it's a coincidence that the Dementors are there."

"Sorry, I think what we're discussing now is why Harry Potter still chose to use magic when he was about to be out of danger." Old Batty said loudly, "I'll ask about the dementors later. "

He turned to look at Harry and snapped, "It's not the first time, is it?"

Dumbledore frowned, Old Barty knew about Voldemort, why is he in this attitude now?

Staring at Harry closely, Old Batty said, "I don't know why the previous Minister Fudge would let a little wizard who made a big mistake go away."

"In my opinion, it is extremely dangerous to lose control of your emotions and inflate a Muggle. What do you think, witness for the defense?"

Throwing the topic to Dumbledore, Dumbledore was silent for a while, and he had already understood that old Barty was expressing dissatisfaction now.

"As the chief magician of the Wizengamot, I think you should be clear that using magic when you lose the source of danger is no longer enough to fulfill Article [-] of the "Law on Reasonable Restraining of Underage Wizards."

As the former director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, old Batty is very familiar with these.

He proposed Dumbledore's identity, which also implied Dumbledore from the side.

Apparently, Dumbledore took the cue.

"Maybe you have forgotten this identity, and you have forgotten something."

Old Batty said, Amelia next to him turned to look at him in disbelief.

"It's like this," Dumbledore said calmly, looking up at old Batty, "maybe I'm not suitable to continue to hold this position."

After getting the answer, Batty Sr. showed a smile, but it disappeared quickly.

Said solemnly, "Don't say anything that has nothing to do with the case."

Harry was amazed to see Dumbledore deflated.

In his mind, Dumbledore has always been synonymous with omnipotence.

"With all due respect, Harry Potter is not entirely out of danger," said Dumbledore. "The black one, after taking a dementor, has no intention of helping Harry."

"It's just your guess, isn't it?" Old Barty looked at Dumbledore and said, "Your witnesses have proved it."

"I have another proof." Dumbledore said, not looking at old Batty, but looking behind him.

"Maybe I can have that person come out and confirm it himself."

John felt the gaze, and he knew that Dumbledore was looking at him.

He remained silent, but the corners of his mouth under the mask were slightly raised.

Want to help yourself?

Dumbledore, you probably forgot what I said.

Or is it your arrogance, your prejudice, thinking that I am still that obedient student?

He stared at Dumbledore below from above, and had no intention of coming forward.

Old Batty said with a dark face, "You mean, you know that person?"

"Yes," Dumbledore said, "I can be sure that he had no intention of continuing to shoot at that time."

"That's your inference," Batty the Elder put down the paper in his hand, and said sarcastically, "You can even amend certain bills. You used to have such power."

"I'll take your word for it, but I don't want to continue to dwell on Harry Potter's behavior outside of school and the mistakes of the previous minister."

Old Batty folded his hands together and said loudly to the members of the Wizengamot, "Please raise your hand if you agree that the accusation is not established."

Hands were raised, whether it was because of Dumbledore or because he was persuaded.

Adding all up, half of them included Amelia and a series of wizards who were close to Dumbledore.

This gave Harry hope.

Batty Sr. continued: "Those who agree with the allegations, please raise your hands."

As he spoke, he raised his hands, and then he raised his hands one by one, reaching half of them.

Half to half, everyone turned their attention to John, but he didn't raise his hand.

Old Batty's voice was not so blunt, and he said, "Ministry of Magic advisor, you can get involved."

"Sorry, but I don't think he's qualified," Amelia interrupted. "He's just an advisor, not a member of the Wizengamot."

"But now it's deadlocked, isn't it?" Old Batty said with a cold voice, "Or do you think we need a second trial?"

But Harry really didn't want to experience the second time.

Dumbledore said, "I think it's a fair thing to involve the Ministry of Magic advisors."

His opening blocked Amelia's speech.

Turning his gaze to the silver mask, Dumbledore's eyes were full of emotions, and he said calmly, "I didn't expect to meet here, Mr. Johnny Silverhand."

"Principal Dumbledore," John stood up, and said calmly, "There are many things you didn't expect. You are not a god, and you can't control everything, can you?"

He meant something.

Under everyone's attention, John asked softly, "I'm quite surprised about one thing."

"As a student receiving education from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, why can't I even control my own magic power, and do things that hurt Muggles?"

John looked at Dumbledore, and said mischievously, "The wizarding world has invested a lot of money in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Naturally, we don't want little wizards to not receive a good education in the school."

"I hope the Ministry of Magic can push the issue of education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

After a few months, the Slytherin dragon bared its fangs on the Hogwarts phoenix.

Old Batty's expression changed, and he understood what John meant.

The voice under the silver mask seemed so sincere, yet venomous.

"I personally hold no ill will towards Harry Potter."

Just for you, Dumbledore.

"I am keen to give the little wizard a chance to reform. I agree that the accusation is not established, but I hope that the supervision of the Ministry of Magic will be implemented as soon as possible, Principal Dumbledore."

Dumbledore, it's time for you to put down your position.

After John sat down, the coldness in his eyes rushed towards Dumbledore.

I said I'd settle the score, starting with your school, Dumbledore.

In the end Harry was found not guilty, but on relative terms.

Dumbledore suspended the headmaster, waiting for a senior investigator to enter Hogwarts to investigate whether there are educational problems to decide whether to resume.

The cancellation of the Wizengamot's chief magician position will also implicate his position as the president of the International Federation of Magic.

Harry couldn't be happier, he felt like he was dragging Dumbledore down and costing him everything.

Dumbledore reassured him, "I don't care as long as I'm not removed from the chocolate frog picture."

Harry wasn't very happy, he kept recalling old Barty's trial and the silver mask in his mind.
