Chapter 374
Harry originally thought Dumbledore wouldn't notice his gaze.
Who knew that after he looked over, he discovered Dumbledore was also looking at him.
After noticing his gaze, he nodded unobtrusively.
Harry guessed that Mr. Malfoy should be no problem.
Sure enough.
Lucius didn't mention being threatened, but remained calm and said, "Thank you for your concern, Minister; I am fine, and of course, I don't know much about the current situation; all of this still needs Dumbledore to explain!"
Harry breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as this guy didn't make trouble, he felt it was great.
He didn't know what method Dumbledore used.
He was indeed the greatest white wizard.
It's just that Harry couldn't quite bring himself to admire this Headmaster anymore.
Because he had previously seen Dumbledore make Snape give Darren Veritaserum.
So he was very vigilant whenever he saw Dumbledore now.
But he still admired Dumbledore's ability to handle things.
However, he didn't know that Dumbledore was also somewhat stunned.
He nodded at Harry just to tell him that it didn't matter even if Lucius talked nonsense.
He could solve it.
But he hadn't expected this Mr. Malfoy to actually not say anything.
Dumbledore suspected in his heart that this Mr. Malfoy might have other conspiracies, but he didn't take it to heart, instead looking at Fudge with a serious expression and saying, "The surviving children, except for Darren, are all here.
As for Darren, he is still at St. Mungo's and hasn't woken up, but I think with so many children, it is already enough to explain many things."
"Hmph, Dumbledore, you don't need to teach me how to do things!"
Fudge snorted, his gaze meeting those of several Slytherin boys, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as he said, "Come on, children, perhaps you should tell me who caused this attack...
Is it possible that it was done by someone for their own selfish desires?"
"Fudge, no one would want to see such a scene, except for those Death Eaters!"
Dumbledore said angrily.
"Ha, I'm just asking; of course I believe Hogwarts has no... So, why don't you hurry up and tell me what this is all about?"
Fudge glared at those students, trying to make them afraid with his eyes.
He knew these students would definitely say what was most beneficial to them in front of him.
Sure enough.
"It was Darren! It was all Darren; he let those people go, and if it weren't for him, those people might not have been able to escape!"
One of the six Slytherin students panicked and pushed the responsibility onto Darren.
"Bullshit!"
"You are simply talking nonsense!"
"Darren was trying to save you!"
As soon as his voice fell, the voices of Harry, Ron, and Hermione rang out; they were furious.
These people didn't mention at all how seriously injured Darren was for their sake, only thinking about how Darren didn't catch those people in the end.
"Darren should have let you all die there!"
Harry said viciously.
Fudge's eyes looked at him, and then he was attracted by the lightning-shaped scar on his forehead.
"Good heavens, this is Harry Potter... I heard it was his brother who had the accident, right?
Dumbledore, do you think there could be some connection? For example, someone did this in order to control the Savior.
He attempted to kill the Savior's brother... but in the end, he didn't succeed, leading to the deaths of other innocent students?"
Fudge asked with a sarcastic tone, his expression looking extremely smug.
But he still tried to show an expression of worrying about the country and the people.
Dumbledore's expression became even more serious.
"Fudge, who are you referring to?"
"Ah, aren't I asking you, Dumbledore?"
Fudge said with a smile.
Harry finally confirmed that this Minister for Magic didn't just dislike Dumbledore; he resented Dumbledore.
After a round of sharp verbal sparring, Fudge finally took away all the students who were here.
And it had already been decided to announce the truth as soon as possible and hold a trial after Darren woke up.
"As the person involved, I hope he must be present; he also needs to describe everything he experienced to all the judges.
Therefore, all of Darren Potter's subsequent actions will be taken over by the Ministry of Magic; we will bring him directly to court after he wakes up!"
