No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion
Chapter 899: Either Way Leads to Death
The not guilty verdict of the Grand Court was also very quick. Don't forget that they were hearing a case brought by Ou Mengmeng's lawyers, who had gathered many war victims and their families to claim compensation from the Death Eaters. Then they worked overtime to judge this old case, which was not a difficult task.
However, no matter how easy it is, it cannot be completed in one day, because the justices have to look at the files and then call all the relevant people to the court to testify.
So Ou Mengmeng, Hermione, and Kechery, who had caught the man, all went to testify, and of course, the Weasleys, because they had to prove that it was Scabbers, the pet rat that had stayed in their house for twelve years, plus those people who watched twelve years ago.
All the necessary witness testimonies had arrived, and there was also the important video stone as evidence, all proving that Sirius was not the traitor in the Potter family massacre, but this was not enough. Ou Mengmeng then realized that she was blind again.
The main points of Sirius's crime were not betraying James and Potter, but one, killing Peter Pettigrew; two, blowing up a street in the Muggle world; and three, causing innocent Muggle civilians to suffer.
Pettigrew was not dead, the first point was gone. However, who bombed the street, and the Statute of Wizarding Secrecy caused by the bombing, as well as the civilian casualties, all needed to be investigated.
She had never thought of this, so she didn't find any relevant evidence. Fortunately, the person was caught, otherwise, it would have been really embarrassing.
Dumbledore was embarrassed. He could only think that as long as Sirius was not a traitor, he could be released. But the problem was that it was difficult to convict him of traitor. The key point was to kill civilians. If Sirius had not escaped because of "Little Petunia", he would still be a fugitive because his guilt had not been explained clearly and the stain on him could not be washed away.
In court, Pettigrew's memory of the street bombing was extracted. Well, it was Pettigrew who blew up that street in order to send Sirius to Azkaban.
Peter Pettigrew knew very well that Sirius would never stop until he saw him dead. And he was definitely no match for Sirius, and he had no help, so he could only set a trap for Sirius.
So he came up with this plan, faking his own death and making Sirius bear the crime of killing civilians. If he was more severe, he could have been sentenced to Dementors' Kiss.
After hearing Pettigrew's confession in court, Ou Mengmeng felt that among the four people, Pettigrew was the smartest one. He was really smart.
Everyone who was hearing the trial had a great look on their faces. The one who was most shocked was probably Ron. He was still looking for Banban, and he was told that his Banban was such a disgusting fat man. He was obviously experiencing great discomfort both mentally and physically.
The Weasleys were also frightened. How could this bad guy have been hiding in their home? This was really too dangerous.
The court was really interesting, and Hermione finally saw the court of the wizarding world. However, she didn't understand why the wizarding world put it underground when it was the most glorious and upright court? So the author still wants to say that the wizarding world doesn't care about the law at all, and the so-called court is just to give the Ministry of Magic the right to do anything reasonably. The Observer Daily reported the incident in full on the second day of the trial, and the story was as fascinating as a novel. There are also screenshots copied by Ou Mengmeng. A mouse and a man.
The author must be Miss Rita Skeeter. She is the best at writing this kind of article. It is really tortuous and moving. Sirius is portrayed as a lone hero who takes revenge in his own way! If it is accompanied by a photo, it will be able to charm thousands of girls.
Of course, the article was not the point. The point was to let Harry and the others know that the mouse had been caught and it was really Peter Pettigrew. And it was he who betrayed James Potter and his wife. This was what Ou Mengmeng and Professor Snape agreed to do, asking him to pay attention to the newspapers, and they could come back when it was safe.
So Harry and Professor Snape returned that afternoon so they could talk to Sirius.
Ou Mengmeng was too lazy to listen to this. There was a black bat, a big black dog, and a silly and cute puppy son in the middle. Let them quarrel slowly.
Harry was not really a silly little puppy. Seeing them leave, he was full of envy, but he did not dare to stop them. After all, what "Little Petunia" said was right. This was their privacy, and they were not good for children to hear. Harry also wanted to roar, "I am a child too!" But he did not dare.
Of course, Ou Mengmeng and the others couldn't go far, they were just upstairs, in her own room. Hermione didn't have mysophobia this time, and she lay directly on Ou Mengmeng's bed. She could only support Harry mentally now, but asking her to go downstairs to accompany him, sorry, that was impossible.
Old Culcheri also entered the house. He was a little worried, as he was considered to have been given to little Harry, but now Sirius was back and acquitted. Ou Mengmeng had said before, "Your twelve years were not in vain, you should accept the due punishment for what happened in the Shrieking Shack. So I won't help you apply for compensation from the Ministry of Magic. As for what to do in the future, you can figure it out yourself." This made Sirius lose his temper, so if he didn't want compensation, he would be penniless.
This is what Kechery is worried about. After graduation, this young master has been living on his uncle's inheritance and has never worked. Now he has given his property to Mr. Harry, and Mr. Harry also needs a guardian. So does this mean that he will be called back to No. 12 Grimmauld Place?
Now, he pointed at Ou Mengmeng and advised Harry not to let Sirius into the house. But even so, he felt it was impossible. Because before knowing the truth, little Harry didn't want the property at all. Now, knowing that this person was wronged and was still his living godfather, maybe little Harry would return himself and all the property to Sirius. Sirius would definitely not want it, and then "father is kind and son is filial", Sirius must go back to live? Old Couchley wanted to die. For the first time, I felt that it would be better if Master Harry was not so naive and kind.
"My dear, I swear, if little Harry lets Sirius go back, I will call you to help. I promise not to let you two meet." Ou Mengmeng could only hug Kechery and ask him to leave the Black family. This was impossible, as they were waiting to put the head in a glass cover. But it was a bit difficult for him to face Sirius every day.
"What does this mean?" Poor and fragile old Kechery looked like he was about to cry. Even though he understood what "Little Penny" meant, he still hoped that she could say something useful.
"That is to say, little Harry can't possibly not let Sirius go back to live with him. Besides, as you said, little Harry doesn't have a guardian in the wizarding world. If he acknowledges his godfather, then Sirius will definitely live in old Black's house." Hermione patted old Ketchley sympathetically. Now she was slowly understanding these house elves. She didn't have the impulse to let them go free.
Kecheli was depressed. No matter which road he took, he would die! (End of this chapter)
