Harry Potter: The Party of the Orient at Hogwarts

Chapter 187 Night Visit to the Ministry of Magic

After Apparating, Jiang Li followed Newt to the hall of the Ministry of Magic in an instant.

This was the first time she came to the Ministry of Magic in London. She had only been to the Ministry of Magic in New York and Paris before, but every time she went, she followed Newt.

The main hall of the Ministry of Magic is a very large hall, even bigger than the Quidditch pitch at Hogwarts. There are several huge golden statues in the hall. The whole hall is crowded with people. Ministry of Magic staff and various visitors from outside.

"Oh, Merlin, it's Sirius!"

"Sirius! How did he get here?"

"Did he surrender himself?"

"Look! Mr. Scamander is there, Mr. Scamander must have arrested him!"

The appearance of Sirius attracted the attention of the surrounding people, and the wizards gathered around them to discuss.

Newt didn't like being surrounded by people, he was a little embarrassed, he dragged Peter through the crowd and walked towards the elevator, Sirius obediently pushed Peter's back and followed behind him.

"Look, who is Black pushing? Pettigrew, am I dazzled?"

A sharp-eyed witch seemed to recognize Peter, and she pointed at Peter's fat body and yelled loudly.

Jiang Li turned around and said to her with a smile: "Ma'am, your eyesight is really good, this is Peter, your eyes are not blurred, they can't be better."

"Merlin, wasn't Peter killed by Blake 13 years ago? I heard that he only left a piece of finger!" The witch covered her mouth and exclaimed, her eyes fixed on Peter.

"Look, he is indeed missing a finger. He is Peter, and he is not dead!"

"He lied to everyone by leaving his fingers and pretending to be dead. Why did he do that?"

"Could it be that there is something else hidden about what happened back then!"

"Look, Peter was roped up by Mr. Scamander, but Blake wasn't! What does that say!"

Before entering the elevator, Jiang Li listened to the noisy discussions of the wizards, and slightly raised the corners of his lips. A new public opinion has been raised, so the next step will be to clean up Sirius more smoothly.

But it also benefits from Newt's majestic image in the minds of wizards. The best evidence is that he tied Peter and didn't tie Sirius.

"It's finally a relief, I just don't like coming to the Ministry of Magic." Newt breathed a sigh of relief from the closed environment in the elevator, and he pressed the button number one with his wand.

"But thanks to you, everyone began to doubt the truth of what happened 13 years ago. After all, Scamander is a convincing name." Jiang Li said to him with a smile.

Newt shrugged indifferently: "I hope things will go well."

He led them to the minister's office on the basement floor, and said to the secretary at the door: "I have something to ask Minister Fudge, please tell him."

The secretary was busy arranging the materials, and without raising his head, he mechanically refused him: "I need to make an appointment to meet the minister, please go to the lobby registration office to make an appointment."

Newt chuckled lightly, tapped his fingers on the table, and said to him again in a good-tempered manner: "Please tell Minister Fudge, Newt Scamander brought Sirius Black and little Peter Dwarf came to him."

Hearing his name, the secretary suddenly raised his head, looked at him in disbelief, then at Peter and Sirius beside him, and quickly bowed vigorously: "Sorry, Mr. Scamander, I am Go tell the minister!"

After the secretary entered the office, he came out after a while, opened the door of the minister's office, and made a gesture of invitation to Newt.

"About Sirius, I want to talk to you, Fudge." After entering the door, Newt sat down on the chair opposite Fudge, and handed Peter to Sirius.

Fudge raised his eyelids to look at Sirius, and found that Newt hadn't cast any binding spell on him at all, so he couldn't help but frowned: "Mr. Scamander, forgive me, you just take a The murderer came out, I think this is very inappropriate."

"Mr. Minister, don't you see who Sirius is supporting?" Newt flicked back the hand holding the wand, pointed at Peter and raised an eyebrow at Fudge.

Hearing what he said, Fudge stood up, walked around Peter a few times, squinted his eyes and observed carefully, the fat man looked more and more familiar, and Fudge's face turned pale inch by inch, with a horrified look on his face. expression.

"This...it's impossible!"

Fudge took a few steps back, and looked at Newt in disbelief: "Is he Peter?"

Newt smiled at him and nodded.

"Didn't he die 13 years ago? When the Aurors arrived at the scene, they only found one of his fingers..." Fudge's eyes widened, and he quickly picked up the water glass on the desk and slammed He took a sip, trying to suppress the horror in his heart.

"But it turns out that he's still alive, and he lied to you." Newt leaned back in his chair, just looking at Fudge.

"Why did he do this?" Fudge's hand holding the water glass trembled, and he probably guessed three points in his heart.

"I would venture to ask, did anyone see Sirius inform Voldemort 13 years ago? Did anyone see Sirius blow up that street and kill the Muggles there?" Newt's tone became serious.

"Not at all." Fudge put down the water glass, and Newt's serious eyes made him a little uncomfortable. Mr. Scamander in his memory has always been a gentle elder.

"You all convicted Sirius just because he was at the scene, the severed finger left by Peter, and Sirius was still alive. It's so reckless. The Ministry of Magic really hasn't improved at all over the years." Newt said Although the voice was not loud, it was very serious, and every word hit Fudge's heart.

"You mean, the real criminal 13 years ago was Peter Pettigrew?" Fudge looked at Newt with difficulty.

"Yes." Newt gave an affirmative answer without hesitation, he stood up, "Fudge, please borrow your interrogation room, I will let you see the truth."

"By the way, call everyone in the interrogation team. They must know that their misjudgment almost killed a young man's life." When Newt walked to the door, he turned back to Fudge and gave instructions.

After finishing speaking, he strode outside, Jiang Li who was carrying the suitcase and Sirius who was carrying Peter quickly followed him.

Fudge breathed a long sigh of relief, and then wiped the sweat from his forehead. The serious Scamander was not at all easy to deal with. He waved his wand and said, "Come to the tenth court room for a meeting."

A tiny silver light flew from the tip of his wand.
