Chapter 340 Chapter 340

The morning of Narcissa's hearing, Jacqueline woke up early.She was lying on her bed, staring blankly at her ceiling.This is the last thing. After solving this matter, she will have no connection with the Death Eaters.Jacqueline laughed at herself, she really thought so, but...

Jacqueline raised her arms, and she rolled up the sleeves of her pajamas.The Dark Lord's emblem on it was looking at her with a grinning grin.

This sign will forever remind her of those past events, and...

Jacqueline tugged at the sheets, Uncle Rufus.

Jacqueline sat up from the bed, she leaned against the head of the bed, clutching the sheet and covering her chest with one hand, you can't let the past affect you forever, although it made you who you are now, but you can't forever Live in the shadow of the past.

Jacqueline turned her head to look at the phone beside the bed, she reached for it, opened the cover, and turned to the message Hermione sent her yesterday:

I'll meet you in the Ministry Hall at eleven o'clock in the morning, and we'll go together.love you love you.

Jacqueline was laughing again, and Hermione's news always brought her back to laughing, no matter the time.

Jacqueline got out of bed, and after washing, she walked to the dining room on the first floor.Yuna was already sitting at the dining table, she was wearing a fuchsia robe with a beautifully crafted silver 'W' embroidered on the left side of the chest of the robe.

"It's the last day." When Yuna watched Jacqueline walk into the restaurant, she said with emotion, both a little reluctance and a little desire for the upcoming life.

"Yesterday I saw Dad already loaded a lot of suitcases into the car." Jacqueline took a piece of toast and poured herself another glass of milk.

"Yes." Yuna nodded lightly, "I packed a small amount of clothes, although your father thinks I can buy them when I get there, but," Yuna snorted contemptuously, "how could I only bring one or two clothes?" Get dressed and go out."

The knife and fork in Jacqueline's hand paused slightly. She once again recalled the trunk of James she saw yesterday. She was very sure that it was not just one or two sets of clothes, it was probably one or two boxes of clothes more than...

However, Jacqueline didn't have the courage to argue with her mother on this issue.

"Mom, will you come back?" Jacqueline asked softly.

Yuna smiled softly, and she looked at Jacqueline as if Jacqueline asked a silly question, "Of course I'll be back, Jacqueline. When you get married, have children, these important things, of course I will Will be back. But as for other times," Yuna shrugged, "maybe."

Jacqueline's face turned red uncontrollably, getting married, having children?Jacqueline's heart was beating powerfully in her chest.Married to Hermione?And her...have a child that belongs to them?

The corners of Jacqueline's mouth turned up, and she had to bite her lower lip tightly to restrain the smile on her face from getting bigger and bigger.

Yuna looked at Jacqueline, and she also laughed, she knew exactly what Jacqueline was thinking now, after all, she also came here like this.

"Have you figured out when to propose to Miss Granger?" Yuna put her hands on her knees, "Have you figured out the name of your first child?"

"Mom." Jacqueline called out a little shyly, and Yuna smiled. She stood up and walked to the fireplace.

"Don't worry, Jacqueline, when the time comes, you will understand everything naturally."

Jacqueline put down the knife and fork in her hand, and she wiped her mouth.Walking to Yuna's side, Yuna handed the small bowl containing Floo powder to Jacqueline, Jacqueline thanked softly, she grabbed a handful and walked into the fireplace, "Ministry of Magic," she said.

Jacqueline walked out from the fireplace of the Ministry of Magic. The layout of the hall has not changed much, except that there are several wizards standing there in the center, and they are directing a large pile of stones to be piled up to form a new sculpture.In the originally busy hall of the Ministry of Magic, now there are only a few sparse people walking around.

Yuna appeared behind Jacqueline, she patted Jacqueline lightly, and together they walked towards a set of golden gates.Jacqueline's eyes wandered to the corner where Rufus died, where there was a small fountain.Jacqueline stopped, looking at her mother.Yuna looked there too, then she nodded to Jacquiline, and they walked towards the fountain together.

When Jacqueline and Yuna walked to the fountain, they found many white roses at the bottom of the pool.Next to the pool was a small shiny sign that read:

Dedicated to Rufus Scrimgeour, a brave wizard and minister who stood up to Lord Voldemort.

Jacqueline shrugged her nose, she pulled out her wand, and with a slight flick, a white rose appeared at the bottom of the pool, submerged among the bouquets.

Yuna patted Jacqueline on the shoulder, and she also offered Rufus a white rose.

Then they walked in silence towards the golden door.

After passing the wizard at security, Yuna and Jacqueline walked to the front of the elevator, where no one was waiting quietly without them now.

The Ministry of Magic is still trying to recruit employees, and there are many leaflets placed in front of the elevator.

"They're short on all fronts," Yuna said. "Auror, the Department of Legal Enforcement, your father, and Sean, the job they're doing the most now is interviewing."

"People from the Wizengamot?" A rough voice came from behind Yuna, Yuna and Jacqueline turned their heads, and a bearded wizard was standing behind them, "I'm here to apply for the management of magical animals Control Division."

The bearded man straightened his chest, "If I were a member of the Wizengamot, I would definitely lock the Malfoy family into Azkaban and never come out for the rest of their lives. They have done a lot of evil things. Things. None of the Death Eaters is a good thing, and Minister Scrimgeour was tortured to death by them. The person who killed the minister should be executed directly. I really hope we have the death penalty."

Jacqueline trembled slightly, she subconsciously grabbed her left arm.

Yuna smiled slightly, "Good luck."

But the bearded wizard was still very interested, "I originally wanted to apply for the Auror, but they said that my Defense Against the Dark Arts was unqualified. They were not willing to lower their requirements at all, but this is another What's the matter? They recruited a lot of people from Hogwarts. I heard that there is also the famous Harry Potter. He is really brave, isn't he? He solved Voldemort by himself. Although he can't be an Auror, but I'm sure it wouldn't be a bad thing to go to the Department for the Regulation and Control of Fantastic Beasts. They are, after all..."

There was a loud noise, an elevator stopped in front of them, the golden lattice door opened, Jacqueline couldn't wait to get into the elevator, and the bearded wizard followed Yuna and wanted to come in too.But Yuna blocked it.

"We're going down, to the tenth floor. The Department of Management and Control of Fantastic Beasts is on the fourth floor." Yuna still smiled decently, "Good luck."

The door closed, blocking out the bearded wizard.

The elevator begins to descend.

"I killed Uncle Rufus." Jacqueline calmly looked at the locked elevator door in front of her, she said silently.

"You also seriously injured Voldemort." Yuna said very calmly, "You did what you should do, don't..."

"He didn't affect me, Mom." Jacqueline raised her chin slightly, "I just... After that incident, I kept thinking, if I changed my method, would Uncle Rufus not will die."

"Will he?" Yuna asked back.

Jacqueline pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

"Mystery department." The female voice said.

Yuna and Jacqueline stepped out of the elevator, and they walked down a hallway to an elevator.Jacqueline could still remember the last time she was here, it was full of dementors and people anxiously waiting to prove they were wizards.

They walked on without speaking, until they came to a black door with a large lock.The last time Jacqueline came here, Hermione and the others snatched Umbridge's locket.

Yuna turned the heavy door handle and stepped into the interrogation room.

There were already many people sitting in the interrogation room, and Jacqueline looked at the bench in front of her.She was sitting there last time, watching Hermione, who had taken Polyjuice Potion, frantically taking notes, and thinking about how to get the locket.

Jacqueline looked down at the chair in the middle, where she might as well have sat, awaiting their judgment.Maybe she should have gone to Azkaban too.Death Eaters, no one is a good person, how much blood is on her hands?

Seeing Jacqueline staring at the chair in the middle, Yuna reached out and pushed her shoulder, glanced to her right, and signaled her to sit in the spectator seat.

Jacqueline nodded, and she walked over.Yuna also walked quickly to the bench at the top,

A few minutes later, the door was pushed open again, and Kingsley and Harry Potter strode in. Mr. Weasley and another man whom Jacqueline had met several times but could not name walked in together.

Then they parted in the middle of the room.Harry Potter walked towards Jacqueline, he glanced at Jacqueline, sat next to Jacqueline, he said with some anxiety, "Someone asked me to come over, I just asked Kingsley, he Said it was Narcissa Malfoy's trial."

Jacqueline looked at him and nodded. "I asked you to come here."

Harry looked stunned.

"Now that everyone has arrived." Sitting in the middle of the front row, Kingsley looked impatiently at the members of the Wizengamot behind him, "We can start. Nothing this time Is there a problem?"

"No more." Yuna said coldly.

"Very well," said Kingsley, turning around, "then let the defendant in."

The black door reopened, and Narcissa walked in slowly.Jacqueline looked over and saw that Narcissa was a little older, but she still maintained her demeanor, with her chin raised, as if she didn't come here for trial today.

Narcissa walked to the chair in the middle of the room, sat down, and looked at Kingsley coldly.

"July 7st hearing," Kingsley said loudly, as a person beside him immediately began to take notes, "will hear Narcissa Malfoy's crimes. Interrogator, Kingsley Shack Er, Minister for Magic; Arthur Weasley, Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. Court Recorder . . . "

"Interim." An old but powerful voice sounded in the courtroom, Kingsley and Arthur were startled, they turned their heads to look at the courtroom.

"What?" Kingsley asked.

"Interim Minister of Magic, and Interim Director of Magical Law Enforcement," said the old voice, "Members of the Wizengamot have reminded many times that Mr. Kingsley and Mr. Weasley are only interim .The real decision will come after the vote in ten days. Please don't forget this, the recorder."

Kingsley looked like he was about to get angry, but he turned around, "Journal recorder: Solo Keith."

Kingsley pulled out a parchment from the document in front of him, he took a deep breath, and then began to read, "The charges against the defendant Narcissa Malfoy are as follows, Narcissa Malfoy assisted her husband Lucius during Voldemort's reign ?Malfoy, only use the Cruciatus Curse to torture three wizards including Ollivander, and forcefully get news that is beneficial to him from them. Now I ask the jury to vote!"

Mr. Kingsley said loudly, "Those who agree that these crimes are established and should be sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban, please raise your hand!"

Among the jury crowd, only a few people raised their hands, and most of them remained motionless.

Kingsley's face turned red with anger, he clenched his hands, and turned his head away, "Please ask the chief magician of the Wizengamot to state his opinion of refusing to pass the trial."

Yuna stood up from her seat, "The Wizengamot believes that Narcissa Malfoy's crimes are established."

"Then why!" Kingsley said angrily, but Yuna ignored him and continued.

"However, the Wizengamot also believes that since Narcissa Malfoy saved Harry James Potter, Narcissa Malfoy should receive a reduced sentence."

"What?" Kingsley said a little grumpily, he turned completely around to stare at Yuna, and Arthur leaned forward slightly, looking at Harry in the audience, as if he wanted him to be sure of this. something is not true.There was also a little commotion in the trial seat, and it seemed that not everyone knew about it.

Narcissa looked up, she looked at Yuna.

Jacqueline turned to look at Harry, who could admit it or not.This will not have any effect on the final result.The debt owed by the Graham family will definitely be repaid.

"The Wizengamot has invited Harry James Potter as a witness under the statute that the accused has the right to be an eyewitness in his case. The Wizengamot also holds that Harry James Potter has accepted the invitation , appeared in the auditorium."

Kingsley took a deep breath, and then he turned around, "Harry James Potter, please come to court and testify."

Harry stood up, staggered slightly, and walked to the center of the room.

"Full name," asked Mr. Kingsley.

"Harry? James Potter." Harry tried his best not to let himself look at Narcissa but at the high jury.

"Mr. Potter, is it true that, as the Wizengamot said, Narcissa Malfoy once saved your life?"

"Yes, no... yes..." said Harry.

"Huh?" Kingsley sat forward, he looked as confused as Arthur, "Is there Mr. Potter, please answer honestly."

"Yes," Potter said.

Kingsley and Arthur glanced at each other, both of them were a little shocked. "What's the matter, Mr. Potter."

Harry swallowed his throat, "I went to the Forbidden Forest at the request of Voldemort, and Voldemort cast Avada Kedavra on me. But because I didn't die. After that, Voldemort asked someone to see if I was dead gone."

"One person?" Kingsley asked. "Is it Narcissa? Malfoy? Did she ask for it?"

"No, I don't think so," Harry replied.

"Then, please pay attention to the jury, Narcissa Malfoy did not take the initiative to ask to come forward for inspection." Kingsley said with some complacency. "Go on, Mr. Potter."

"She came over and felt my heartbeat and pulse." Harry continued, "Then she asked me if Draco Malfoy was still alive, and I told her that Draco was fine, and then Malfoy Mrs. Fook told Voldemort that I was dead."

"Thank you, Mr. Potter." Kingsley turned around, and he looked at the jury. "Narcissa Malfoy exchanged the safety of her son with Mr. Potter's life." Kingsley said loudly, "The deal is over, and I don't think Narcissa Malfoy deserves a reduced sentence for this."

The wizards of the jury began to whisper, and then an old man stood up, "The Wizengamot unanimously agreed to Narcissa Malfoy's request for a reduced sentence. Draco Malfoy's life was not in danger at the time, so the Wizengamot Moore believes that Narcissa Malfoy did not benefit from it. Although Narcissa Malfoy did not intend to save Harry James Potter, her behavior made Harry James Potter profit from it, and for In the end it contributed to defeating Voldemort. Because the Wizengamot agreed that Narcissa Malfoy should be sentenced to ten years in Azkaban."

Kingsley's face was completely dark, but Arthur nodded involuntarily.

"Okay," Kingsley gasped loudly, "please raise your hand if you agree with Narcissa Malfoy's sentence of ten years in Azkaban."

Almost everyone raised their hands, including Arthur Weasley.Kingsley looked around, as if something was stuck in his throat, he took two deep breaths, his voice was already distorted, "Very good, this court has sentenced Narcissa Malfoy to Azkaban for ten years in prison .”

Two dementors floated in, and Narcissa stood up from her chair. She looked at Jacqueline and said thank you silently.

Jacqueline bent slightly towards Narcissa, watching her and the dementors go out through a side door.
