Mastering Thunder from Hogwarts

Time passed quickly and two days later, Anduin packed his bags and came to the Ministry of Magic again.

Today's Ministry of Magic is full of people. Wizards from all forces are all present, including members of the Wizengamot Council, representatives of pure-blood wizard families, and well-known wizards from all walks of life. They were originally planning to observe the magical communication system of tomorrow.

Journalists and officials from various countries at the opening ceremony, etc.

It can be said that the directors of the Ministry of Magic tried their best and notified almost all the people who could be notified.

Anduin even saw many bosses in Diagon Alley like Mr. Ollivander.

"Anduin, do you know what happened? Why is the Ministry of Magic suddenly so anxious to hold a public trial? And you have called so many people over?"

Newt, the master of the protection of magical creatures, happened to meet Anduin in the reception hall of the Ministry of Magic, so he took the initiative to come over.

"Didn't you and the others explain it clearly?" Anduin raised his eyebrows in surprise. It seems that these executives from the Ministry of Magic are quite strict. Of course, it may also be because there are too many people who need to be informed, so he followed

No one is here to elaborate.

"They just sent me an urgent letter, but the wording in the letter was very exaggerated, as if if I missed it, I would lose thousands of galleons." Newt complained with some dissatisfaction, "Why?

?It sounds like you know who the subject of today's public trial is?"

"I do know a little bit, but since the Ministry of Magic hasn't specified it, it's better to keep some mystery here. I can only say that the content of the public trial that follows is very exciting, and you won't be disappointed." Anduin smiled.

The way to deal with it.

"Is it necessary to make it so mysterious?" Newt rolled his eyes helplessly, and then looked at Anduin with a strange expression, "I have a hunch that you may be related to this matter, right? I hope you will be there by then.

Don't be too frightened by the trouble you cause, as this old guy like me has a bad heart."

This trouble isn't scary at all, it's just catching a wild Voldemort, Anduin secretly cursed in his heart.

Then he comforted softly, "You are joking, Mr. Scamander. You have never seen any big scenes. You just need to wait and see quietly."

"I hope so..." Newt smacked his lips and replied casually. He didn't know how much he believed Anduin's words. Anyway, based on his understanding of this young man, the trouble he caused would most likely not be trivial.

.

While chatting, the two moved along with the flow of people to the first courtroom located on the tenth floor underground. The Department of Mysteries and the courtroom located downstairs from the reception hall cannot be reached by elevator, and the first courtroom is the entire magic room.

The largest courtroom in the department.

This is not the first time Anduin has been here. Last time when Karkaroff was being tried, he helped officials from the Ministry of Magic capture Barty Crouch Jr.

Coincidentally, the former Death Eater's father, Barty Crouch, who had been transferred to the Department of International Magical Cooperation, was making a guest appearance at the door of the courtroom.

Director Crouch was not unfamiliar to Anduin. The International Magic Cooperation Department he was in charge of managed all international trade and had a lot of official dealings with Silver Flash Trading Company.

In Anduin's eyes, Director Crouch is a good person, and he is easy to get along with. He is an upright, rigorous and somewhat rigid Ministry of Magic official. This may be related to the fact that he has served as the Director of the Legal Enforcement Department for many years.

It's a pity that the other party's family is unfortunate, and his son is actually a Death Eater.

Seeing Anduin and Newt approaching, Crouch's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he took the initiative to greet Anduin.

"Mr. Wilson, could you please chat for a few words before we go in?" Crouch Sr. said and looked at Newt with some embarrassment.

"You two, let's talk. I'll go in first." Newt knew that Crouch might have some personal matters to see Anduin, so he walked into the courtroom alone very wisely.

"You want to see me for something?" Anduin looked at Old Crouch curiously.

"Yes, but it only takes you a few minutes..." Crouch nodded, then glanced around again, and after making sure that no one else was paying attention, he pulled Anduin to a corner next to him.

Seeing Old Crouch's behavior, Anduin was even more surprised. This director used to be very serious and never liked to beat around the bush.

"Mr. Wilson." Old Crouch thought for a moment before murmuring slightly hesitantly, "Although I heard you confirm it with Dumbledore once before, I still want to make sure that that person has really been captured by you.

Give……?"

"Yes, this is absolutely true, and you will be able to see him with your own eyes soon." Although Anduin didn't know what Crouch was struggling with, he was not angry because of his past friendship.

"Then can you ensure that the other party will not be able to escape from you?" Crouch looked at Anduin with a slightly anxious look, obviously this issue was what he was most concerned about.

"To be honest, I can't guarantee you this, but as of now, he is still under my surveillance. If he really has the ability to escape, there is no need to delay it for so long, so you don't need to worry too much.

at this point."

Anduin thought that Crouch was afraid that Voldemort would seek revenge on him after he escaped, so he comforted him with words. After all, the old man in front of him had tried many Death Eaters and even sent his own son to prison.

"With your words, I feel relieved." As if his worries were settled, Old Crouch breathed a sigh of relief, "Please forgive me for once again sorry for wasting your time, and I want to confirm this matter with you.

It’s really important to me.”

"Please don't be so polite." Anduin shook his head indifferently. This was not a particularly important thing to him. He just felt a little confused.

After finishing the conversation with Crouch, Anduin turned around and prepared to enter the trial room, but by coincidence, he bumped into Lucius at the door.

Originally, Anduin was not going to talk to this guy, but who would have thought that he would actually come over to him.

"Mr. Wilson, I want to solemnly protest to you!" Lucius still had the same arrogant expression, "The courses you have arranged in Hogwarts have exceeded the range that normal students can bear. You have absolutely no

Put the safety of those little wizards first."

"I'm warning you!" Lucius suddenly threatened with a straight face, "If you continue to conduct those rude and disrespectful trainings to the students in Hogwarts, I will propose to the school board to remove your professor.

Duty!"

Depose me? Who the hell are you?

Anduin laughed angrily at Lucius' overestimation of his abilities. Did this guy think that he could use his status as a pure-blood family and school director to suppress him because he had become more peaceful in recent years?

Has this idiot forgotten how badly he was beaten in that duel 8 years ago? He really doesn’t have a long memory!

Anduin was not polite about this, "Oh? You want to remove me, do you have enough votes? If you think you can do it, you can give it a try."

After saying that, Anduin pretended to hold up his fingers and counted them one by one, "First of all, the Bulstrode family and the MacMillan family will probably ignore you. Alton White, who is mainly engaged in the broomstick industry,

The Horn, Cage and Horton families all have business dealings with me, so you shouldn't be able to command them."

"Not to mention the Aibo and Greengrass families. Their patriarchs expressed their appreciation for my training methods. They all said that their children have made great progress this school year."

"Based on this, it seems like you can't get 7 votes no matter what, right?" Anduin sneered contemptuously and looked at Lucius.

Lucius was choked by Anduin's words and was speechless. Only then did he realize that the other party was not just a businessman. After this school year of management, Anduin's relationship with the big families in the local wizarding world

Also very good.

"But that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want!" Lucius replied angrily, "Wizards should look like wizards. If you let them run and exercise like those Muggles every day, you are simply squandering their talents."

"I think Draco was led astray by you, so he spends all day and night dancing with knives and guns. The only weapon a wizard has is a wand, not those Muggle items that have no magic power!"

After hearing Lucius's complaint, Anduin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It turned out that this guy was so excited because he was dissatisfied with Draco's current changes.

However, Anduin didn't expect that Draco would work so hard at home during the Christmas vacation. He couldn't see how this useless snack Lucius could actually give birth to such a motivated child.

"Whether my training methods are good or bad must be observed with your eyes and tested with time, rather than speculated with your narrow prejudices." Anduin looked at Lucius coldly.

"To be honest, Draco is doing well in school. If you really care about him, don't hold him back like an idiot!"

After giving Lucius a hard slap, Anduin walked into the courtroom without looking back. He was too lazy to waste time on this idiot.

Lucius, who failed to find trouble and was scolded instead, was trembling with anger, but there was really nothing he could do against the other party.

In terms of force, Anduin was able to punch him into the ground when he was in third grade. In terms of financial resources, Moody and the Weasley family, who only had a nepotistic relationship with Anduin, have now become nouveau riche.

Much richer than the Malfoy family.

In terms of power, it is even more self-defeating. At best, the Malfoys are pure-blood nobles, but at worst, they are just a bunch of people who are resting on their laurels.

However, Lucius was very dissatisfied with Anduin's behavior and looked down upon his Muggle-born status.

"Damn it! If my sister Yulia was still alive, how could any Muggle bully her like this!"

Lucius suddenly felt a sense of grievance in his heart and couldn't help clenching his fists. He still can't figure out why his sister's family suddenly decided to leave England as a family.

Unfortunately, what Lucius didn't expect was that the sister he had relied on so much was the one who ran away after being bullied by Anduin intolerable.

At this time, Anduin walked into Trial Room No. 1 and discovered that the space here had been temporarily expanded a lot by the Ministry of Magic. The entire room was at least twice as big as before. It was obviously prepared to accommodate more wizards.

When he saw Anduin arriving, Fudge, who was sitting on the trial stage, quickly called him over.

"Anduin, you are finally here. You are the protagonist of this public trial. Come on, come on, your seat is next to me." Fudge pointed to the seat closest to him and smiled.

"What? Are you planning to preside over this public trial yourself?" Anduin looked at the other party in surprise. General trials are basically presided over by personnel from the Legal Enforcement Department, so in theory, the person standing on the trial platform today should be

Amelia is right.

"Of course I have to take part in such an important trial in person!" Fudge raised his chin quite proudly, "Although I have only served in the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters before, I am not unfamiliar with the trial process at all."

This is not a question that everyone is familiar with, but a question of whether the procedure is reasonable!

Anduin shook his head helplessly. He naturally knew that Fudge wanted to steal the limelight personally, but no leader would act as a judge himself.

However, Fudge did not continue this topic with him. Instead, he whispered into Anduin's ear how much preparation he had made for this public trial, just like a child showing off to his parents.

After a while, the entire courtroom was filled to the brim with wizards, and Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape and other Hogwarts deans and principal-level professors also arrived one by one.

"quiet!"

Seeing that everyone was almost there, Fudge stopped talking and immediately banged the gavel in his hand.

After the scene finally calmed down, Fudge slowly opened his mouth, "The reason why I summoned everyone here today is to conduct an extremely special and important trial. Everyone in the British wizarding community needs to bear witness to this. If

Please allow me to apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you!"

Facing Fudge's polite opening remarks, most wizards nodded slightly in agreement, but there was still someone who couldn't help but interrupt.

"What happened that was so important?"

"Have you caught another wanted criminal who has been around for a long time? Then there is no need to mobilize so many troops, right?"

"Hurry up and start, I have to go back to visit the store quickly!"

"Quiet!" Seeing everyone talking, Fudge knocked the gavel nonchalantly, and then said seriously, "Today's trial will officially begin."

"The cause of this incident comes from Anduin Wilson, the head of Silver Flash Trading Company and professor of tactical training at Hogwarts. He discovered the whereabouts of a special criminal seven days ago!"

Fudge paused when he said this.

"And that criminal...is the one who has disappeared for a long time, but it turns out that he is still alive, the leader of the Death Eaters—Voldemort!"
