Chapter 1237
Umbridge pushed Marietta.
She added with a smile to Fudge.
"Minister, her mother is Mrs. Edgecombe from the Floo Network Office in the Department of Magical Transportation, she is helping us monitor the fireplaces at Hogwarts..."
"Like mother, like daughter! Good child, speak quickly!"
Fudge praised, then urged Marietta to speak out quickly.
Marietta looked at Darren's eyes, she screamed, and she covered her eyes tightly.
"Hurry up, hurry up and tell these people what you said when you walked into my office today!"
Umbridge said loudly.
But Marietta burst into loud sobs. She covered her face with her robes.
Fudge frowned.
"Her face..."
"At the time, this young lady walked into my office and told me she wanted to report something, and that the matter was beneficial to me.
And she also said the room was called the Room of Requirement. Just as she said this, the jinx on her face began to take effect, and after that, she didn't say anything else..."
Umbridge said loudly.
Marietta let out another painful wail.
Fudge said impatiently: "Can you remove the jinx on her?"
"We don't have the conditions for now..."
Umbridge said with frustration.
She couldn't even break Hermione's spell.
But she still said firmly: "She can't say it, I'll say it for her. Minister, do you remember the matter I reported to you last October..."
She was talking about the time Harry and the others found so many people at the Hog's Head. But Dumbledore indicated that at that time, the decree had not taken effect.
He wanted Umbridge to produce evidence proving that Darren and the others had held meetings after that time.
Umbridge pointed directly at Marietta.
She said fiercely to Marietta: "Child, if you held meetings, just nod. I think you should be able to nod your head, right?"
Harry's heart rose in horror.
He saw Darren close his eyes dejectedly.
Just as he wanted to comfort Darren, even if they were expelled, he wouldn't let Darren wander the streets.
But he heard a strange sound. It seemed to be Fawkes's sound.
Then, under everyone's gaze.
Fudge looked at Marietta and asked: "You tell me, did your subsequent meetings still exist?"
Marietta's gaze became dull.
She said in a low voice: "No, we never held such meetings again."
Harry saw Darren open his eyes in shock.
It seemed he hadn't expected Marietta to say this.
However, Darren seemed to simply think that Marietta had found her conscience, and he even gave Marietta a comforting smile.
This made Harry show a helpless smile. Simple Darren.
He was just about to remind Darren.
When he saw Umbridge had already grabbed Marietta and was shaking her vigorously. Darren waved his wand angrily and knocked her away.
He said indignantly: "What are you doing? You are bullying an unarmed girl just because she spoke for us?"
Umbridge wanted to retort.
But when she saw Darren pick up his wand, she retreated a step subconsciously in horror.
Even the Aurors present shut their mouths.
"Alright, Dolores, I think we have other evidence, as long as we can prove they were meeting here tonight!"
Fudge said officially.
Umbridge immediately showed a look of realization.
Then a gloating expression appeared on her face.
She took a piece of parchment out of her pocket and handed it to Fudge.
She said triumphantly: "I asked Mr. Phelps to look again to see if there was anything missed, and he found this.
Then, I think the list and names on it should be enough to send someone to Azkaban!"
Fudge got the parchment.
He handed the parchment to Dumbledore with a grin.
He said triumphantly: "DA, Dumbledore's Army..."
Darren said immediately: "It's Darren's Army, it's my army, it has nothing to do with Headmaster Dumbledore!"
Dumbledore laughed.
He patted Darren on the shoulder and said: "Don't be afraid!"
Then he looked at Fudge and said: "That's right, it's Dumbledore's Army, it's my army!"
Fudge's eyes lit up.
He looked at Kingsley and Dawlish beside him and shouted happily: "Look, he admitted it, take him to Azkaban!"
The man named Dawlish immediately went to draw his wand calmly.
Dumbledore sneered and said: "Dawlish, you are an excellent Auror, do you think you can catch me?"
"Dumbledore, do you think you can handle me, Dolores, Kingsley, and Dawlish?"
Fudge sneered...
Darren stood in front of Dumbledore.
He said softly and firmly: "Naturally, there is also me!"
"Enough!"
Fudge shouted.
A silver light flashed.
Darren knocked Fudge down.
Then he rushed in front of Harry, pushed him down, and another red light hit Umbridge.
Umbridge fell down. Dumbledore had already dealt with Dawlish there.
Darren looked at Marietta.
Marietta was being protected by Professor McGonagall. She still had a chaotic expression.
Darren said hesitantly: "Didn't she find her conscience?"
"How could she find her conscience? I modified her memory. Good boy, you are truly amazing!"
Kingsley walked over and looked at Darren in admiration. Dumbledore laughed.
He grinned, as if praising himself, and said happily: "Amazing is amazing, it's just that he trusts others too easily.
To actually think that others would find their conscience, this child, I worry that one day he will die from trusting others."
Dumbledore said.
Then he looked at Kingsley and said: "It seems I have to give you a spell too." Kingsley nodded and resisted a few times.
Then he also lay on the ground.
Only then did Dumbledore continue: "In a while, you just pretend they just lay down. By the way, I still have to modify their memories.
I can't let them remember that it was Darren who did it, he still has to stay in school. Oh, Darren, don't worry, I want to leave the school, they will always beg me to come back.
And I still have these things to do, I won't be idle, just find an excuse to leave.
Take care, you must be cautious!"
Dumbledore hugged Darren. Then he looked at Harry.
"Harry, learn Occlumency as soon as possible... I know you will still have nightmares, you must control yourself.
Also, I have known for a long time that you held the DA, after all, my and Darren's Occlumency training for so long wasn't in vain."
While Harry nodded.
He found his scar starting to ache painfully. He wanted to attack Dumbledore!
He knew the reason Dumbledore didn't hug him... ===== CHAPTER 1239 =====
