The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

"Snape... Severus Snape!" Horace Slughorn shouted, "He is one of the most trusted Death Eaters of the Dark Lord. A Hogwarts spy, he was also one of the participants in the murder of Albus Dumbledore."

　　 "Severus Snape was released 16 years ago!" Mrs. Amelia Bones replied calmly:

"The late Albus Dumbledore vouched for him... Severus Snape was indeed a Death Eater. But before Voldemort fell for the first time, he threw on our side, risking It is very dangerous to provide us with a lot of valuable information; and before Voldemort's second fall, he continued to spy for us."

"No!" Slughorn argued hard, "Snape was a double agent... The Dark Lord knew that he was working for Dumbledore, and that was also the order of the Dark Lord. In fact, the Dark Lord was very Trust Snape very much...I assure you that Snape is really a Death Eater through and through!"

　　 "Slughorn!" Rufus Scrimgeour on one side said with a gloomy face, "Compared with what you said, we undoubtedly believe in Albus Dumbledore more."

　　 "But... Dumbledore is dead... Isn't it..." Slughorn continued to argue, "If Snape was really loyal to him, how could he die so casually..."

　　 "This is something we need to consider." Mrs. Bones said, "Very well, Slughorn, if that's all, you will be sent back to Azkaban until we decide--"

　　 Slughorn looked terrified, and puffy beads of sweat flowed down from his head from time to time.

　　 Not long ago, Albus Dumbledore promised him that as long as he cooperates with Dumbledore’s actions, he will not be held accountable for his short life as a Death Eater and the mistakes he committed...

　　 Slughorn thought he could sit back and relax, but he didn't expect to receive Dumbledore's death in just a day... and before he could react, Azkaban's arrest warrant was greeted by him.

　　 Azkaban’s days can be said to be extremely painful; with that nightmarish feeling, he does not want to return to that horrible prison for a day, and he does not want to stay with the Dementor again.

　　 "No!" Slughorn called desperately, "Wait a minute, I still know..."

　　 "... Malfoy... Draco Malfoy!"

　　 This time, there was a little commotion in the entire interrogation bench. Several wizards and wizards began to whisper and whisper.

　　 "Quiet!" Mrs. Amelia Bones frowned:

"Slaghorn, you're accusing Lucius Malfoy's son, Draco Malfoy, of being a Death Eater, aren't you? If I remember correctly, the boy has just turned seventeen. Are you sure he became one of the Death Eaters at such a young age?"

"Yes...I'm sure!" Slughorn said tremblingly. "A year ago, Draco Malfoy had officially become a member of the Death Eaters... He was very good at Three Broomsticks. Rosmerta used the Imperius Curse, you can find out... and he was also the initiator of the serious injury to Katie Bell... At the same time, he was also one of the participants in the murder of Albus Dumbledore."

　　 There is no doubt that this time Slughorn has dug into a gold mine, and there are whispers all around.

　　 "Draco Malfoy." Mrs. Bones whispered to a secretary beside her, motioning her to write down the name.

　　 "Very well, Slughorn." Scrimgeour said coldly, "You assisted our work. I will review your case again, and you will return to Azkaban first..."

　　 "No, Azkaban!" Slughorn showed a pained expression.

　　 Just when he was about to accept this painful ending--

　　 "Wait a minute!" A clear voice came from the corner on the right side of the first row: "Minister, may I speak a few words?"

　　……

　　 It was Jon Hart, the young Hogwarts principal.

　　 He stood up and looked at the Minister of Magic gently.

　　 The gaze of the entire interrogation room focused on him again. The witches and wizards who had been making noise before began to whisper and whisper again.

　　 "Of course, Mr. Hart!" Mrs. Burns nodded: "As the principal of Hogwarts, you are now one of the honorary members of Wizengamore. You have the right to express any opinion on our trial.

Rufus Scrimgeour on the side of 　　 frowned and said nothing.

　　 "Okay, thank you." Jon smiled and said, "First of all, I can provide a little evidence... for Professor Slughorn's previous accusation against Snape..."

　　 Scrimgeour couldn't help but raise her head, Mrs. Bones frowned, and the whispering voices around her became even louder...

　　 "Principal Dumbledore really trusted Severus Snape..." Jon said solemnly, "But I can confirm that at the end of his life, Snape chose to betray him..."

　　 One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the entire interrogation room suddenly boiled.

　　 "Quiet!" Mrs. Bones said harshly, "This is a very severe accusation, Mr. Hart... can you describe it in detail?"

"According to Dumbledore's original plan, Severus Snape will cooperate with him at Hogwarts to fight Voldemort..." Jon explained, his expression seemed to overwhelm his inner anger: " But Snape did not appear to the designated location, which is the root cause of Dumbledore's tragic death in the end..."

　　 "...At the same time, on the night of the Battle of Hogwarts, Severus Snape mysteriously disappeared, and no trace of him can be found again..."

　　 "Thank you for your testimony, Mr. Hart!" Mrs. Burns nodded with a complicated expression: "We will—"

　　 "Wait a minute~www.NovelMTL.com~Minister!" Jon shook his head, then took out a phoenix feather from his pocket:

"I also have an instruction left by Albus Dumbledore during his lifetime as evidence... In this instruction, he mentioned that Horace Slughorn was a few days before his death. , Has left his identity as a Death Eater, and started to cooperate with his actions..."

　　 "Yes, that's right!" Slughorn seemed to have grasped the straw: "Professor Dumbledore can prove my innocence... It's just that none of you believed it before..."

　　 "Prisoner please be quiet!" Mrs. Bones shouted.

　　 She took the phoenix feather and seemed to confirm the above: "Mr. Hart, thank you for your testimony and evidence. The Ministry of Magic will conduct a more proper trial of this case."

　　 "Okay, thank you." Jon bowed slightly, then sat back again.

　　……

　　 "The interrogation is over and the suspect will be brought back to Azkaban temporarily!" Scrimgeour shouted.

The two dementors returned to the interrogation room—the tall monsters whose faces were covered by hoods—slowly walked towards the armchair in the center of the room, and grabbed Slughorn with their rotten dead hands. His arms grabbed him.

　　 Slughorn was taken away, and he still had to stay in Azkaban for a while before he was completely proved innocent.

　　 "Bring the next prisoner..." Mrs. Bones ordered, and at the same time glanced at the roster in front of her:

　　 "Diana Greengrass!"
