Chapter 468: The Judgment Disrupted by Luke

The day Harry was interrogated.

In the tenth courtroom, Harry gasped, and he couldn't control himself. The deep dark room he walked into was too familiar to him, which made him frightened.

The surrounding walls were made of black stones, and the torches were dark and gloomy. On both sides were rows of empty benches that were gradually rising, and in front, there were many dark figures on the highest benches. They had been whispering just now, and when the heavy door was closed behind Harry, an ominous silence enveloped.

A cold man's voice echoed in the courtroom.

"You're late."

"Sorry," Harry said nervously, "I-I don't know the time has changed."

"That's not Wiesengamor's fault," said the voice. "Send an owl to inform you this morning. Sit down."

There were about fifty people Harry could see, wearing purple-red robes, with an exquisite silver "w" embroidered on his left chest. They all looked down at him, some with a stern expression, while others did not hide their curiosity.

In the middle of the row of benches in front, was Connelly Forge, the Minister of Magic. Forge is a fat man who often wears a dark yellow-green dome hat, but he did not wear it today.

On the left of Forge sat a wide-body witch with a square chin, her gray hair was cut short, wearing a pair of monocles, and her face was intimidating.

There was another witch sitting on the right side of Forge, but she sat too far behind on the bench, her face shrouded in the shadows.

"Very good," said Fudge, "The defendant is finally here, let's start. Are you ready?" he asked loudly to the other end of the bench.

Kamataji

"You don't have to stay in Kamataj with me. Going back to the harbor to practice will be more helpful to you." Luke was going to stay in Kamataj after studying the Dark God Book, so Hermione and Phoebe did not go back, so they stayed together.

"It's really inconvenient for me to stay here to practice dark magic." Phoebe couldn't practice dark magic in front of Kama Taj's mage, and he needed to practice in the mirror space every time.

"Okay, then Phoebe and I will go back first. Are you going to Harry's interrogation today?" Hermione said.

"I'll go and check it out later. There are too many ways to prove Harry's innocent." Luke said indifferently.

Saying goodbye to Hermione and Phoebe, Luke went to the Ministry of Magic alone, and the person who tried Harry's case was in the Tenth Courtroom.

Fudge moved the documents in front of him, "Well, then. Now it's... the charge, yes."

He pulled out a piece of parchment from a pile of documents, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "The defendant has committed the following crimes:

"The defendant had been warned in writing on similar charges before. This time, when he knew that his actions were illegal, he deliberately and knowingly committed a patron saint in front of a Muggle in a Muggle residential area at 9:23 pm on August 2. This act violated paragraph 3 of the Law on Reasonable Countermeasures of Minor Wizards promulgated in 1875 and Article 13 of the Confederation of the International Wizards Federation."

"Well~ Sorry, have the time and place of the interrogation changed?" Fudge was about to continue asking Harry, but a voice suddenly interrupted him.

As soon as Harry saw Luke, a strong feeling rose in his heart, making him feel at ease and full of hope.

Luke's appearance instantly made some wizards frown. They changed the time and location of the trial, not only to prevent Dumbledore from interfering, but also to be afraid that Luke would make trouble. You should know that these laws are not binding on him now, but because of his high force, no one dares to say anything.

"I think the owl must have lost his way. This is our mistake," Fudge said.

Harry sighed in his heart that his lateness was "not Wiesengamor's fault", and it turned into their mistake when it came to Luke.

"Oh, that may not be the owl. I just came from Nepal. Fortunately, I was not late." Luke looked very lucky. "Minister, please continue, I seemed to hear you were publishing your crimes."

In fact, when Harry and Dumbledore both have communication bracelets, they cannot use owls at all.

Fudge was helpless about Luke's behavior, so he had to ask while staring at Harry from above the parchment. "Are you Harry James Potter, who lives at 4 Liverpool Road, Xiaohuijin District, Surrey?"

"Yes." Harry replied.

"You were officially warned by the Ministry of Magic for illegal use of magic three years ago, are you?"

“Yes, but…”

"And you used magic to create a patron saint on the evening of August 2?" said Forge.

"Yes," said Harry, "but..."

"You know you are less than seventeen years old and are not allowed to use magic outside of school?"

"Ahem~ Sorry." Luke interrupted Fudge again, "Minister, why don't we see the scene together? I recently learned a new magic."

"Mr. Coker, you can't always interrupt the trial," Ms. Bones said in a loud voice.

"Sorry, sorry, I just think this can save everyone's time. This magic can go back to people's memories and reproduce the scene at that time, and it will not be disturbed by other spells." An extremely domineering magic will not harm the caster, but it also has its shortcomings. Memory that is too long-lasting cannot be used.

This magic made Luke think of soul searching, but he has no energy to study it yet. In the future, Lily's soul-type spells may be released, so it will not be too late to study it.

Some wizards around Ms. Bones began to whisper. Some nodded, while others showed a look of disbelief and shook their heads.

"If you don't believe it, you can find someone to try it, anyone can do it. Minister, do you want to try it? Ms. Borns..." Luke pointed to someone's name, and everyone shook their heads, and no one wanted to try this kind of magic.

"Since Mr. Coker has magic to reproduce the scene at that time, why don't we take a look at the situation at that time together," Dumbledore said.

Dumbledore never spoke up to defend Harry, just waiting for this opportunity to fight back.

No one wants to be a guinea pig, and everyone agrees to let Luke use the memory back magic.

"Harry, I'm sorry to go back to your memory at that time. Don't worry, this magic is very safe." Luke said to Harry in the center of the courtroom.

"No problem." Harry naturally believed Luke's words.

With Luke's spell casting, the walls around the Tenth Courtroom disappeared, the judgement table disappeared, and the scene changed completely.

In the dark night, strange things happened. The dark blue night sky covered with stars suddenly became pitch black, without a trace of light. The stars, the moon, and the dim street lights at both ends of the alley disappeared in an instant.
