Chapter 158 Ministry of Magic
After Wade entered the room, Harry, who was sitting on a chair, immediately stood up and said, "Wade is here. Should we set off now?"
The November weather was damp and cold, but a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on Harry's forehead.
Professor McGonagall checked the time.
"There is still an hour until Sirius' trial...but I don't think you have the patience to wait here, so why not leave early."
She noticed the expressions on Harry and the others' faces and changed her words.
"But actually, even now, I don't think you should be attending this trial, Mr. Potter."
"Professor..." Harry stared at her with wide eyes.
Professor McGonagall sighed, "Remember what I told you, someone in the court might say something... um... something that makes you uncomfortable. Remember that it's just rhetoric, don't take it to heart, stay restrained and polite."
"I understand, Professor."
Harry obviously didn't listen much, his mind had already flown to the Ministry of Magic.
"Okay... let's go..."
Professor McGonagall looked as if she wanted to hug him, but restrained herself.
She pulled out a bag of Floo powder and said, "For today only, my office is connected to the Floo Network... you all know how to use it, right?"
"Of course…see you later, Professor."
Lupin said politely, he sprinkled a pinch of Floo powder into the fire, walked in and said clearly: "The Ministry Hall!"
The flames rose up with a "boom", and Lupin disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Harry walked over eagerly and sprinkled the Floo powder.
"I wish you all the best." Professor McGonagall looked at him with tenderness and compassion in her eyes.
"See you in a few hours, Professor." Harry smiled and said, "Also, I've finished my Transfiguration homework, Professor!"
"The Ministry Hall!"
The flames engulfed Harry's figure, and finally only Vader was left.
"Mr. Grey," said Professor McGonagall, "Although I am also a Gryffindor, I have to say that some Gryffindors tend to be overwhelmed by their emotions. If... I mean if... the result of the trial is not satisfactory, I hope you can help them stay rational."
"I will, Professor."
Vader also sprinkled Floo powder.
"The Ministry Hall!"
The green flames reflected Professor McGonagall's dark green robes, and Wade saw her azure eyes.
Her lips were tightly pursed, her eyes revealed deep worry, and her fingers were crossed as if she was praying.
Green flames surrounded him, and Wade, with his eyes closed, suddenly thought that the two people on trial today were both in Gryffindor when they were in school... and were both students of Professor McGonagall.
They all mastered Animagus at a young age, and their performance in Transfiguration class must have been very good, which must have caused both headaches and pride for the professor.
But things have changed and the result has become something that no one wants to see.
Professor McGonagall must also want to attend the class, right?
But she was the deputy headmistress, and when Dumbledore was not in school, she had to stay here and could not leave.
Vader thought again of his plan to improve the two-way mirror.
Professor Murray had once told him the principle of how the double-sided mirror worked. If he could successfully repair the double-sided mirror this time, he could start his next plan.
Improve the two-sided mirror and change the one-to-one function into one-to-many, thus realizing the live broadcast function of the magic world.
What a shame…Sirius’ trial was a hot topic…
Wade stepped out of the fireplace and saw a magnificent hall in front of him. The walls and ceiling were made of peacock blue bricks, and there were golden symbols that were slowly changing and moving.
Rows of fireplaces were embedded in wooden boards, and wizards kept coming out of them. The fireplace used by Wade and his team was separated, and a sign was hung on the side:
【Visitor】.
"Hello." A young, plump witch sitting behind a desk, wearing a light blue robe, said listlessly, "Please register here."
"Hello, ma'am." Lupin stepped forward and said, "Remus Lupin, Harry Potter, and Weider Grey, here to observe the trial of Sirius Black."
"What the…Oh my god!"
The witch's eyes widened immediately. She ignored Lupin and looked back and forth between the two students twice before finally locking onto Harry.
"You're Harry Potter!"
She exclaimed and took a short breath.
After being stunned for two seconds, the witch suddenly jumped up and stretched out her hands: "Hello, Mr. Potter! I grew up listening to your stories! It's great to meet you!"
"Uh..." Harry shook her hand awkwardly: "Hello... Ma'am..."
"I'm Louise Wenger." The witch took the initiative to introduce herself. She was so excited that tears were about to come out. "What an honor! I can actually shake your hand!"
"Well..." Harry had to remind her: "We are here to attend Sirius' trial."
"Oh, yes. Look at me, damn it, I almost forgot what I was doing. Come with me, please follow me, Mr. Potter."
Wenger spoke incoherently, and took the initiative to lead the three people to the end of the hall, introducing them to them:
"Guests will need to be checked at the security desk and have their wands registered. Of course, Mr. Potter and your companions will not be a problem, but these are the rules."
Vader glanced back.
Behind them, green sparks rose from the fireplace again. Two wizards, a man and a woman, came out one after another. When they were about to register, they found that there was no one there. They were stunned and stood there as if they were at a loss.
"Another wizard has come out of the fireplace." Wade reminded the witch: "Is it okay for you to put your work aside for the time being?"
"It's okay, just let them wait for a while." Wenger waved his hand nonchalantly, and then asked Harry eagerly: "Mr. Potter, I heard that you were sorted into Gryffindor like your parents?"
"Yes, yes..."
Harry said awkwardly.
"Are you used to school life? I heard that you grew up in the Muggle world. How is your life in the Muggle world..."
Vader looked at Lupin, who shrugged helplessly.
Fortunately, the security checkpoint finally arrived, and Wenger had to stop asking questions. She pulled a dozing wizard over and told him to be polite to the three of them.
"This is Mr. Harry Potter!"
Wenger's face flushed with excitement, and he spoke in a tone of suppressed excitement.
The wizard's eyes suddenly widened.
Anticipating that a new wave of star-chasing was about to begin, Vader and Lupin took a step back in unison.
"Goodbye." Wenger waved to the others cheerfully and said, "Remember to walk through my door when you leave! Mr. Potter, can you give me an autograph when the time comes?"
"...Okay." Harry had no choice but to say.
Wenger was so happy that he almost jumped back to his post.
"Mr. Potter!" The wizard stretched out his hand: "I'm Hansen, it's an honor to meet you!"
