Chapter 597: Using Rules to Pressure People, Who Wouldn't Do the Same?
Kyle looked at Amelia Bones. Of all the people present, she was the main interrogator, not Umbridge who danced the most happily.
"I have no objection to Mr. Malfoy's proposal, but only if I receive a formal interrogation letter."
Kyle said word for word, "The curse before the flashback is my bottom line. It is my explanation to the Ministry of Magic on behalf of the students at Hogwarts. But after that, I will not accept any form of inquiry unless you Send a formal letter, or present new evidence.
"As for now, I demand an immediate end to this ridiculous interrogation."
"Let's vote by a show of hands." Amelia said in a loud voice: "Please raise your hands if you agree that the accusation is unfounded."
After saying that, she was the first to raise her hand.
To be honest, she originally disapproved of this interrogation, but she couldn't help it. Fudge was the minister, and there was Umbridge who was fanning the flames.
Then, more people raised their hands, including Scrimgeour.
Like Amelia, Scrimgeour also felt that the interrogation was a waste of time.
Kyle's whereabouts were too simple, including school, home, and nowhere else. He really couldn't figure out how Kyle could avoid everyone and kill an adult wizard.
There were many people raising their hands, and it was obvious without counting that it was more than half, but Amelia continued:
"If you agree with the accusation, please raise your hands."
Umbridge immediately raised her hand, and there were five or six other people who raised their hands. Kyle scanned these people one by one and wrote down their appearance.
Oh, the three Malfoys also raised their hands... It's a pity that they don't have the right to vote.
"Very well," said Amelia Bones. "The accusation is not true!"
"A wise choice," Professor McGonagall said with a smile.
"Don't be happy too early."
Umbridge looked at Kyle with a pale face, "Don't you want the interrogation letter? You will receive it soon. I really hope you can still show such confidence when you come to the Ministry of Magic in seven days."
"I think you made a mistake. Everything is first come, first served, Ms. Umbridge."
Kyle smiled and said, "Before that, you need to explain today's behavior to the Wizengamot, and the Wizengamot Trial Conference will determine whether your testimony is reliable."
Then, Kyle put away his smile and said solemnly: "Ms. Amelia Bones, regarding today's interrogation, as a recipient of the Second Class Medal of Sir Merlin, I formally applied for a ruling to the Wizengamot. .
"Including the authenticity of the testimony and the improper interrogation of me by Ms. Dolores Jane Umbridge."
"On behalf of the Wizengamot, I accept your application." Ms. Bones nodded seriously. "In addition, you need to prepare a written application and submit it to the Wizengamot."
"No problem," Kyle said.
Seeing that Kyle only mentioned one person's name, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief, except Umbridge who was a little panicked.
"You can't agree, Amelia." She said with a pale face: "You can definitely see that he is taking revenge, and I am the Senior Undersecretary of the Ministry of Magic. He has no right to interrogate me!"
"In fact, he has." Ms. Bones said calmly: "As an honorary member of the Wizengamot, he has the right to apply for a ruling if the evidence is doubtful.
“In addition, I also reminded you before this interrogation started that this kind of behavior is completely against the regulations, and if you get it wrong, the consequences will be serious.
"I thought the Sirius Black incident would make you more sober, but it doesn't seem to be the case now."
After that, she got up and left the room.
Everyone else also left their seats, and several members of the Wizengamot came to Kyle, first apologizing, and then saying they could help.
But Kyle smiled and refused.
Kyle gave Umbridge one more look before leaving the room.
She was sitting there, repeating words like "I am the senior deputy minister" over and over again.
Yes, Kyle was indeed seeking revenge, but what could she do? She was just using rules to suppress others, and no one would be the same.
After leaving here, Kyle, Professor McGonagall, and Chris walked all the way to the elevator.
Kyle noticed that the corners of Professor McGonagall's mouth moved slightly, as if he wanted to smile, but held back.
"Professor McGonagall, do you want to go back now?" Chris asked.
"No, I have to tell Dumbledore what happened just now." Professor McGonagall said, "This kind of thing must not happen a second time."
"When will it end with Mr. Potter?"
"Maybe soon."
"Let's go sit at my desk for a while."
"No, I'll just wait here so I don't miss it."
While talking, the elevator just came down.
When the iron door opened, Dumbledore walked out, along with Harry and Mr. Weasley.
"Oh, Minerva, Kyle." Dumbledore came over, "Great, is the matter over there over with you?"
Seeing him, Professor McGonagall's expression darkened again, "Follow me Albus, I have something to tell you."
Then the two came to another corridor.
"Kyle, I heard Professor Dumbledore say that you have received a warning letter?" Harry came over and asked, "What happened?"
He seemed to be in a good mood, and presumably the charges against him were not established.
Kyle thought for a moment and said, "Nothing, just like you, using spells outside the school."
He didn't choose to tell Harry the truth, not because he wanted to hide it from him, but mainly because Harry was a little... well, honest, no matter what he said, he couldn't hide it on his face or in his heart.
And Harry also knew the truth. After all, this is the Ministry of Magic. If he let something slip, it would be troublesome.
Not long after, Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall came back, and his face became extremely ugly.
"Leave this to me, Kyle." He said, "If they don't want to give up, I will accompany them."
"Professor." Kyle said calmly: "In fact, I can do it myself, it's not that difficult."
Dumbledore's expression froze, he looked at Kyle, not knowing what he thought of, and after a moment he said meaningfully: "You are still a student, Kyle, some things are better handled by adults."
"Okay then." Kyle shrugged and didn't comment.
He saw that Dumbledore didn't seem to want him to get too involved in this matter.
But is this possible?
On the contrary, Kyle couldn't just let it go.
He was fine after the trick, but what if they came up with a more disgusting trick next... For example, they would throw a dark wizard directly into St. Catchpole Village.
According to their style, this is not impossible, and Harry is the best example.
Kyle didn't want to spend all his time and energy on dealing with such things. The Wizengamot was just the first step, so that they couldn't cause trouble for him in a short time, but it didn't mean that the matter was over.
And Voldemort was also a big trouble.
Kyle definitely didn't believe that there was no one behind Karkaroff and Malfoy, otherwise, with their personalities, they would never do such a thing today.
This was most likely Voldemort's request, and he was just targeted, and had no choice but to enjoy the treatment that only Harry had.
As for the reason, it was nothing more than Nagini.
As one of the Horcruxes, Voldemort must value the snake very much, and naturally he would find a way to snatch it back.
But Dumbledore said that Voldemort was seriously injured that day, just like his hand, it takes time to recover, and it won't heal so quickly. He spent the previous month recovering from the injury.
Seeing that school was about to start, Kyle would definitely not be able to sit still.
After all, as long as Kyle returned to Hogwarts, he would have no chance to snatch the snake, unless he was willing to lead people to attack the school.
Now there are still two years before graduation, it would be very uncomfortable if Voldemort kept doing this.
In the absence of being able to kill Voldemort directly, if you want to solve this problem, you still have to start from the Ministry of Magic.
Kyle touched his chin.
And it's time to take time to study the snake in the box.
Ever since Nagini was snatched away by him, the snake has been thrown into the box by him and he didn't know if Nico's potion would work on living things.
Kyle remembered that the snake seemed to be a wizard, but it turned into a snake because of some special reasons... It seems to be a curse called blood curse orc.
So if possible, he didn't want to kill Nagini directly.
Kyle thought to himself.
And Dumbledore beside him seemed to have noticed something. He looked at Kyle deeply and reminded him again: "Remember, Kyle, you are still a student."
"Of course, professor." Kyle came back to his senses and said, "I have always known."
