Chapter 329: The Situation Is Reversed

"According to the law, all witnesses need to appear before the hearing, so I reject your request."

Looking at Dumbledore indifferently, Fudge raised his arm.

"Then, please raise your hand if you agree with the judgment."

"I believe that what Harry Potter says is baseless and contrary to Ministry of Magic law, which will result in the destruction of the wand and the expulsion from Hogwarts."

As Minister of Magic, Fudge still has some authority, especially given his lead vote.

Some jury members who were close to Fudge also raised their hands one after another.

Umbridge looked at Dumbledore and Harry triumphantly.

This round, they won!

Amelia Bones, the Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, thought for a moment and said regretfully.

"I'm sorry, Potter. I'd like to believe you, but you didn't show enough evidence."

Soon, more than half of the people expressed support for Fudge.

Just when he put a smile on his face and was about to pronounce the sentence.

Alvin, who had been silent for a while, coughed again.

The voice was low, but it caught everyone's attention.

Many of the jury who had raised their hands turned their heads and saw that Alvin was still sitting there without any sign on his hands, and their expressions changed.

Many people raised their hands to tickle and scratch their heads, and even more so, an old wizard raised his other hand and made a stretch.

Fudge, who thought he had won it, instantly became a loner, and only a few people still firmly supported him.

However, it can be seen from the trembling arms of those few people that they are not having a good time now.

Alvin tapped his fingers on the table, and his long-term infiltration of the upper echelons of the wizarding world finally paid off.

Some of these people were convinced by his knowledge, and more were involved with his interests.

These people may not care about Galleons, but what about their descendants?

Now as long as you do business in the wizarding world, you can't do without the Arya family.

And these big men naturally know who is standing behind this family.

No matter what, Alvin's words and deeds will be watched and interpreted by countless people.

These people may support Fudge for various reasons until Alvin expresses a clear opinion.

That's because they don't know his relationship with Harry, and these members of the Wizengamot wouldn't be bored enough to investigate his relationship with a student.

Now it's Alvin's "hint," and these big men have come to understand.

It means supporting his classmate today.

"I think Mr. Potter should be innocent."

"Yes, the Ministry of Magic needs to do a good job of examining itself. Why is the Dementor on Privet Drive?"

"You can even cast the Patronus Charm. Potter, you're a good boy!"

In an instant, the wind changed, and everyone was on the side of Dumbledore and Harry.

Fudge's face was full of despair at being backstabbed.

It's not the same as it was said!

But soon, he also understands something. What Alvin meant was that you can target Dumbledore, but you can't make it difficult for Harry.

I should have spoken to Alvin beforehand today!

Afterward, he also changed his hand-raising action into tidying up his tall wizard hat and then putting it down naturally.

Now that the situation is clear, it will not be successful against Potter. It is better to pleasant Alvin.

Harry, who was sitting in the middle, watched the face-changing action.

"I also think that expulsion is too cruel for a student, maybe Potter is at fault, but the idea of educating people tells me that he is not guilty of this!"

"I announce the verdict in Potter's breach of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy."

"Not guilty!"

Fudge knocked the hammer hard and ended today's hearing.

Dumbledore's face also flashed with surprise, he had prepared for the worst, and he had to keep Harry no matter what.

But when Alvin coughed lightly, things changed dramatically.

"Wait a minute. I have one more thing to do today."

Alvin spoke up, signaling everyone not to leave in a hurry.

"I remember that Professor Dumbledore was just revoked as Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot a few days ago?"

Everyone didn't know why, but they nodded.

Alvin clapped his hands and looked very happy, "It's rare that most of our group members are present today. I think we should elect a new Chief Warlock."

Got it. Everyone got it.

One of the smartest jumped out. "Mr. Gaunt is right. I think Mr. Gaunt is the most suitable candidate, and I vote for him!"

Others were not slow to respond, and one after another came out to support.

"That's right! I've wanted to propose it for a long time but never had the chance."

Looking at Dumbledore, Alvin also asked. "Professor, although you are no longer Chief Warlock, but you are still a Wizengamot member. Do you have any different views?"

Dumbledore shook his head and smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that there would be such an event waiting for him today.

"No, I think you are quite suitable."

So under such a sloppy procedure, Alvin was successfully elected as the Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot.

His power is also above the Ministry of Magic to a certain extent.

The meeting was over, and Alvin came to Harry's side after dismissing the wizards who were close to him.

"Congratulations, Harry."

At this time, Harry was still in a trance. Was the matter solved like this?

Even Fudge dropped the charges against him.

Alvin didn't care about Harry's performance and smiled at Dumbledore next to him. "Professor, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Dumbledore smiled. "I'm really proud to have a student like you."

He said it from the bottom of his heart, and Dumbledore still thinks so.

If Alvin were more stable, he would be even more relieved.

"I'm still far behind."

Alvin is very humble.

"By the way, my Magic Web device shop will open on August 15th. If you are interested, you can come and join us. It is located in Knockturn Alley."

Dumbledore agreed without hesitation, and Alvin also left.

He has more important things to deal with today.
