"That's the Ministry of Magic's business," Foggy said in a strange voice, as if he had something in his mouth.
Judging from his expression, he was obviously furious, and it seemed that even he was disappointed with his own performance.
He slumped into his chair and glared fiercely at Dumbledore, but he couldn't hide his disappointment.
If it weren't for the fact that there were so many people watching, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't beat Dumbledore, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't have the guts and intelligence, he definitely wouldn't be able to resist rushing over to settle the score with Dumbledore according to the wizard tradition of a "duel".
Elwyn pursed his lips. Foggy didn't have to care. Judging from today's trial, that was pretty much his level!
No matter how hard he tried to find trouble, Dumbledore could easily solve it.
Now, what Elwyn was more concerned about was Umrich, who was much more difficult to deal with than Foggy.
She had a lot of tricks up her sleeve, and most importantly, she had enough guts.
Ordering the Soul Catcher to attack Harry this time was her doing. This woman wasn't simple.
Anyone who had a deep understanding of the Ministry of Magic knew that she was the one standing behind Foggy and had a great influence on him.
After Lord Voldemort came to power, this woman also played a considerable role.
Of course, Elwyn was sure that if she dared to provoke him, it wouldn't end well for him.
He was still looking for a reason to leave Hogwarts, and he believed that Umrich would be very "cooperative" with him at the beginning of the new semester.
"We'll investigate the matter of the Soul Catcher," Ms. Burns said solemnly.
"Very good, we'll wait for the results of the investigation. Personally, I believe that the Ministry of Magic will definitely get to the bottom of this matter." Dumbledore said happily, standing up and taking out his wand, making the two cotton print armchairs disappear. "Well, since things are over here, I must go. Have a good day, everyone."
He quickly glanced at Elwyn and then quickly walked out of the darkroom without looking at Harry.
"That's it?" Harry said with some confusion. He was very surprised by Dumbledore's sudden departure.
He sat motionless in the chained chair, trying to recover from the shock and relief that had seized him.
In the judge's seat, the members of Weissengamor stood up one by one, arranging their documents as they spoke. No one seemed to be paying attention to them, except for the toad-like witch on Foggy's right.
She had been staring at Dumbledore just now, and now she was staring at the two of them, which made Harry feel very uncomfortable.
He pretended not to see, trying to catch the eye of Forge or Ms. Burns.
But Fudge seemed determined to ignore them both, and Ms. Burns busied herself packing her briefcase.
Finally, Harry's eyes met Elwyn's, and his eyes shone with uncontrollable joy.
"It's over!" Elwyn said. "You've been acquitted, Harry. In fact, you didn't do anything wrong in the first place."
"Then can we go now?"
"Yes, there shouldn't be a problem. We'd better go and say hello before we leave," Elwyn said.
Since they left as victors, it was natural for them to be more 'polite'.
Apart from being in charge of trials, the members of Weissengamor also had different duties, jobs, and identities.
They were at the top of the magic world, and it was necessary to maintain a good reputation.
Elwyn led Harry to the judge's seat. Foggy ignored them and deliberately didn't speak to them. The other wizards, however, showed interest in the two of them and responded politely. Ms. Burns even said a few words of concern.
Like Foggy, Percy also completely ignored the existence of Elwyn and Harry.
Apart from Hermione, Elwyn probably had the best relationship with Percy in school.
Percy had also helped him a lot back then, especially when Elwyn had just come into contact with magic. He had systematically taught him a lot of magic knowledge.
When he graduated, he had even given Elwyn his research notes. Although they couldn't compare to things like Tom Riddle's diary, they were still very meaningful and contained many of his personal experiences.
Who would have thought that in less than half a year, Percy would become strangers to them?
It could be seen that Percy was really willing to give up everything for his political future …
Apart from that, Umrich's attitude towards the two of them seemed to be overly enthusiastic, but she was a typical person who hid a dagger behind her smile.
Elwyn pulled Harry away from her. This toad-like woman was annoying to look at.
Finally, when they went out, they almost bumped into Mr. Weasley, who was standing outside.
Mr. Weasley's face was pale and he looked panicked.
"Dumbledore just came out, he didn't say …"
"Cleared!" Harry said hurriedly. "All the charges are not valid."
"Harry's counterattack against the Soul Catcher was legitimate defense. They're going to investigate why the Soul Catcher appeared there," Elwyn continued, seeing Rita Skeeter standing not far away.
As he spoke, he walked towards the other party, ready to describe in detail what had happened today.
The fact that they were being tried in the highest courtroom of Wiesengamo was a huge piece of news in itself.
Elwyn saw that the parchment in front of her was already more than half written, and the green automatic feather was still writing.
As for the specific content, Foggy would probably faint from anger after reading it.
At the door, Mr. Weasley glanced cautiously at Elwyn and Rita, still immersed in the good news.
He beamed and grabbed Harry's shoulders. "That's great, Harry. Actually, of course, they can't convict you. You have witnesses, but I can't pretend that I'm not …"
Mr. Weasley stopped abruptly, because at this moment, the door of the courtroom opened again, and the members of Wiesengamo streamed out.
"Oh my God!" Mr. Weasley shouted in surprise, pulling Harry aside to let them pass. "They're officially trying you? This is all the members of Wiesengamo's official bench. They haven't done this for many years! "
"I think so," Harry said softly.
Unlike Mr. Weasley's surprise, Rita Skeeter suddenly became excited, her eyes shining brightly.
Like a cat smelling blood, she grabbed her crocodile skin bag and hurried over to Foggy.
As soon as he saw her, the expression on Foggy's face became even uglier, even a little flustered. He subconsciously quickened his pace, almost as if he was running away …
