Chapter 273: Take the pot

As the strands of silver disappeared, Marietta Ekmo's eyes became hollow.
She looked at Jon helplessly, and murmured, "Where am I?"
"Let's go, Miss Ekmore... The Minister and Professor Umbridge are waiting for you." Jon said nonchalantly.
They crossed the moving stone stairs to the bright front door of the principal's office.
There was a lion-eagle-headed beast knocker on the door, but Jon didn't knock on the door, but grabbed Marietta Ekmore and rushed in.
In the principal’s office, there has never been such a lively...Additionally, you can even make up two tables of Mahjong.
Principal Albus Dumbledore sat in his seat casually, as if nothing had happened; Professor Minerva McGonagall stood angrily on Principal Dumbledore’s side, Jon never saw Professor McGonagall’s lips were so pale and pressed so tightly.
On the wall, there are no portraits of the old principals and the principals pretending to sleep.
They are very alert and serious, watching the surrounding movement... As Jon and Marietta came in, several old principals looked at them while rushing into the neighboring picture frame and biting eagerly with the neighbors. The ears communicate.
Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge stood by the fire, shaking his body in excitement, obviously satisfied with the current situation; beside him were three heavily armed wizards, one of whom was dark, should be Kingsley- Shackle... Professor Umbridge grabbed Harry Potter and stood behind Fudge and the three Aurors.
There was another person, Percy Weasley with freckles and glasses walking excitedly around the wall, holding a quill pen and a thick roll of parchment in his hand, obviously ready at any time recording.
"It's really irritating... an illegal organization was established in the school..." Jon heard Cornelly Fudge yelling there, but his voice was filled with no anger at all. Excited emotions.
"Oh, Christophe..." Umbridge noticed the new intruder, and she said kindly: "I am honored that you brought our witness, Miss Ekmore... Let me see how dear Principal Dumbledore can quibble?"
Jon pushed Marietta Ekmore, and she walked up to Umbridge a little timidly.
"Minister, Miss Ekmore's mother." Umbridge looked up at Fudge, and added: "It's Mrs. Ekmore from the Floo Network Office of the Magic Transportation Division..."
"It's great, there is a mother, there must be a daughter!" Fudge said warmly:
"So now, my dear, tell us what happened during the party?"
Marietta shook her head weakly.
"Then you tell us...what is the purpose of the party?" Fudge was patient and guided like a kid.
Marietta still shook her head, her eyes empty.
"Damn it!" Fudge muttered, "Then you should know how many parties have been there in the middle?"
"There was no gathering before..." Marietta seemed to be trying to recall: "Today is the first gathering; last October Granger and Potter invited us to create this group, and then this evening is our first gathering... …"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Umbridge cried out angrily, "Isn't it Patrick you told me that there will be parties once or twice a week?"
Jon on one side nodded repeatedly: "Professor Umbridge, that's what she said."
"I lied to him..." Marietta said in a hoarse voice.
Umbridge looked like he almost fainted.
Or Percy Weasley’s flexible mind: "But there was at least one party, right? Minister; at the Pig’s Head Bar last October, Willie Widson could testify... He was drinking there and heard Potter’s Loudly shouted upstairs."
"Oh, it turned out that it was for this matter that he was exempted from prosecution for the toilet sewage backflow incident he created!" Professor McGonagall raised his eyebrows and said: "Our judicial system is really eye-opening! "
"Shameless depravity!" It was Principal Dexter Fosco, who roared angrily: "If the old Gamp knew that the current Ministry of Magic would be reduced to cooperating with criminals..."
(Uric Gump was the founder and first minister of the Ministry of Magic, and was a friend of Dexter Fusco during his lifetime.)
Both Fudge and Umbridge pretended not to hear his curses.
"I want to know how you can explain it?" Fudge continued to look at Dumbledore, urnly speaking.
"Connelly, if I haven't forgotten it, it wasn't until two days after Harry's Hogsmeade party that the Ministry of Magic's decree to ban all student associations took effect, so he didn't violate any rules when he was at the Pig's Head..." Dumbledore Said gently.
Judging from Fudge's expression, he seemed to pass out of anger.
...
Jon thought it was almost done~EbookFREE.me~ He quietly took out the parchment from his pocket and handed it to Umbridge.
Then he reminded in a low voice: "By the way, Professor Umbridge, I found this in the Room of Request...It's Dumbledore's Army!"
"Yes, Dumbledore's Army...good job, Christopher!" Umbridge seemed to wake up from a dream: "Dumbledore, how do you explain this, why is it called Dumbledore's Army? "
"No need to explain." Dumbledore said calmly: "It's Dumbledore's Army, not Porter's Army... Tonight should have been the first gathering, but it was not a success!"
"Dumbledore, did you admit it?" Fudge changed his face for an instant and shouted, "You organized this?"
"I organized it."
"Then you are indeed plotting against me!"
"Yes."
"Very good... I came here tonight and wanted to fire Potter, but I didn't expect..."
"A windfall, isn't it?"
"Weasley!" Fudge yelled, and now he was shivering with joy: "Weasley, have you written all this down?"
...
Kingsley Shacklebolt and the other two Aurors had already walked a few steps forward and surrounded Dumbledore from different angles.
"I announce that Albus Dumbledore is going to be escorted to the Ministry of Magic, after the formal prosecution, and then sent to Azkaban for trial..." Fudge said triumphantly over there.
"But I think there will be a little trouble in the middle!" Dumbledore smiled and shook his head.
"Little trouble, do you want to fight us?" Fudge had no fear on his face: "We have six people here!"
Jon counted carefully... It seemed that this respectable minister did not count himself among the people.
