The Trinity of Harry Potter

Chapter 239 Final Judgment

A week later, the Ministry of Magic.

Kano walked into the lobby and registered visitors. Many people followed him. He smiled and said hello to everyone before getting into the elevator again.

The elevator took Kano to the eighth underground floor, which is where the trial court is located. All wizards who break the law will come here to be tried and fined or imprisoned depending on the severity of the crime.

Today is the day of judgment for the Death Eaters.

"If you think Rodolphus Lestrange is guilty, please raise your hands."

Under the auspices of Scrimgeour, who was wearing a purple robe, all members of the Wizengamot raised their hands.

"There is no doubt that if you agree with the execution of the death penalty, please raise your hands."

This time the number of people raising their hands was much smaller, but still more than half.

In the trial just now, Rodolphus's actions have been thoroughly investigated. Even if the Ministry of Magic advocates killing sparingly and with caution, it is impossible to allow him to live any longer.

Rodolphus slumped numbly in his chair, showing no reaction.

The Aurors dragged him down, and the members of the Wizengamot took a break and chatted among themselves.

"This is the third person to be executed today. It's really a big reckoning."

"Of course, leaving aside Peter Pettigrew, Greyback and Rodolphus are really full of evil, and not killing them would not be enough to make the people angry."

"Who's next?"

"It's Lucius and the others. Their crimes are relatively minor."

Soon, Scrimgeour knocked the hammer on the table, and Lucius Malfoy was brought into the courtroom.

He was wearing clean robes and looked quite calm.

"Invite witnesses to appear."

Cano walked briskly from the corridor and sat on the witness stand set up nearby.

Narcissa, Draco and their brother were anxiously waiting in the corridor for the outcome of the trial.

The day after the dinner, Kano and Fleur sent the children back to their respective homes.

Although Draco knew that his father spared the students who retreated from the position he was guarding, he was not sure whether the Wizengamot would show mercy to his father because of this.

Finally, the door to the Tribunal opened, and Lucius was led out by the Aurors.

"How is it, Father?"

Lucius said calmly: "Nothing, three years in prison."

"Azkaban is destroyed. Now I just need to serve my sentence in a regular prison."

Narcissa cried and hugged her husband, but these were tears of joy.

Draco also relaxed, his tense mood finally relieved.

This is already a good result. After all, objectively speaking, the Malfoy family contributed money and effort to the resurrection of the Dark Lord. If we were to pursue the matter seriously, Lucius's bones would rot in prison.

Kano also came out. He had already provided the list of all the shaken Death Eaters, so there was no need to stay here to listen.

Pony Ma, who had always been quiet, immediately recognized Kano, pulled his trouser leg, and motioned for him to lower his head to speak.

"What's wrong? Young man."

"Brother Canopus, why is daddy locked up? Did he do something wrong?"

Kano picked him up and made him eye level with Lucius.

"Yes, your father helped bad people and hurt many good people, so he must be punished."

Lucius was a bit embarrassed. After all, no father wants to be scolded in front of his son.

"But your father is not completely bad. He helped some people out of a little kindness in his heart." Kano smiled and patted the pony's head, "So the punishment he received was not serious."

The pony smiled and stretched out his hand to his father, and Lucius had no choice but to smile and hug him.

"Lucius, there are many bad things you did behind the scenes. For example, you put Tom's diary in Ginny's cauldron, and you also took advantage of a lot of property during the First Wizarding War."

Lucius's face turned pale, but Kano continued: "Unfortunately, there is not enough evidence for these things, and the Wizengamot will not convict you for this."

"But don't think that you can sit back and relax in the future. Always remember that there is a pair of eyes watching you."

"Don't make a mistake."

Kano left these words and turned around to leave the eighth underground floor. Lucius sighed helplessly, put down his youngest son, and was taken away by the Aurors.

In fact, relying on his rising prestige, Cano could convict Lucius with his words and force him to spend ten more years in prison.

But now that the magic world is in turmoil, the most important thing is to maintain and restore order. If Karuno really relies on suspicion here to convict people, the impact will be extremely bad.

It is easy to destroy the authority of the law, but extremely difficult to rebuild it.

The trial lasted for three full days, and all the captured Death Eaters received a fair and impartial trial.

Old Avery, who received the lightest sentence, only had to serve half a year in prison. Those with Lucius's conscience were generally imprisoned for three to five years, and those who were unrepentant were imprisoned for life.

The three condemned men, Peter, Greyback and Rodolphus, were immediately executed.

The victims and their families were also invited to watch the execution, and naturally Lupine, Sirius and Harry were among them.

The Ministry of Magic did not retrieve the dementors for execution, but used potions to execute him.

The three of them were given the magic potion, foaming at the mouth, fell to the ground and struggled, and finally died with a kick of their legs.

"It's over?" Harry was a little confused.

"It's all over. Those who killed your parents have been punished." Sirius sighed deeply.

Lupine looked at Greyback, who had lost his breath, and then at Peter, who was shrinking into a ball. His mood was also very complicated.

He and Sirius looked at each other, knowing that the other party was also remembering the days when the four Marauders got into trouble together in school.

Now things have changed, James is dead, and Peter has received the punishment he deserves.

A story with bloodstains comes to an end.

"There is another person." Harry suddenly said.

Sirius hesitated: "I... never thought I would speak for him. But I think, for the sake of Snape being an undercover agent next to Voldemort, we should not go to trouble him."

Lupine also quickly persuaded: "Yes, Harry. We still have to look forward."

Harry shook his head: "When I was fighting Voldemort that day, I saw my parents."

Sirius and Lupine looked at each other in surprise, wondering if Harry had been stimulated and had something abnormal in his mind.

"Snape directly caused the death of my parents, and I really can't forgive him."

"But my mother no longer seems to care about his sins back then. Instead, she is very happy that he can take the right path."

Sirius spoke cautiously: "So what do you want to do?"

Harry raised his head, looked at the bright sunshine, stretched his arms, and let out a long breath.

"I will tell him what my mother said and free him from endless suffering."

"He is only in his thirties and should start over. I think this is what my mother wants to see."

"As for the future..." Harry smiled, "I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore. I still hate this guy."

Sirius and Lupine were in a daze, as if they saw their free and uninhibited best friend James smiling at them again.

They smiled and put their hands on Harry's shoulders.

"That's it, let's go."
