Chapter 413

~4 min read 738 words

"It's not like that!"

"We didn't do such a thing!"

"We didn't do it, he's doing it on purpose, he wasn't affected by the Veritaserum!"

"The Veritaserum is fake!"

"He's making it up!"

A few Slytherin students defended themselves eagerly.

How could they do such a thing?

They knew themselves; although they wanted to do bad things, they didn't have the guts. How could they want to kill Darren?

"Shut up!"

Fudge looked at these few students angrily.

A look of disgust appeared on his face.

He wasn't exactly hating evil as much as he hated them.

But he felt that these few students would likely be expelled from Hogwarts after this ended.

Even if the answers obtained from Veritaserum could only be used as a reference and not as evidence.

But after this matter got out, the futures of these few students would definitely be ruined.

Wasting time being nice to these people was also a waste of time.

It would be better to show a fierce look to show his justice.

"Do you have any evidence?"

Fudge looked at Darren.

"My wand's spells from beginning to end can be checked."

Fudge signaled the previous wizard to check Darren's wand.

A wizard took Darren's wand.

However, Darren's wand was a bit uncooperative.

It refused to obey the wizard's command for Priori Incantatem.

"This is a cypress wand, it requires loyalty and a spirit of dedication to be used.

Of course, if recognized by the wand's owner, it can also be used... let me try!"

Nicolas Flamel said.

Then he took Darren's wand and used Priori Incantatem.

The spell took effect.

It was Obliviate.

The same as Darren's statement.

A smile appeared on the corner of Nicolas Flamel's mouth.

But thinking of something else, he immediately became angry.

Darren found Dumbledore's face turned livid.

He had never seen him so angry.

Maybe he had never seen such students before?

Harry's eyes were red, and he was constantly wiping them.

Snape was still the same, hollow eyes, as if everything in front of him had nothing to do with him.

Such a scene almost cleared all of Darren's problems.

Logically speaking, it should have ended here.

But Fudge and the other parents certainly weren't willing, and they cast their eyes on Rita Skeeter.

They had to give Darren some stain.

Otherwise, wouldn't they have failed to steal the chicken and lost the rice?

Ask!

Ask with the usual state!

Must ask out Darren Potter's dark history!

Rita Skeeter certainly lived up to expectations.

She walked in front of Darren, her eyes flashing, as if she had confirmed something.

Then she asked with interest, imitating the original Rita Skeeter's tone: "Since you didn't collude with the Death Eaters, then why didn't you say so?

Is it because you knew you would be used Veritaserum, and then you could attract people's sympathy?"

"Fudge, reporters don't have the right to ask questions!"

Dumbledore said seriously.

"No, reporters certainly do, and Rita Skeeter's question is very good..."

Fudge was saying excitedly.

Then his words were interrupted by Darren.

"It's Minister Fudge... I think it's Minister Fudge who threatened me; after I woke up from St. Mungo's, I had a note in my hand.

It was written on it to make me admit that I colluded with the Death Eaters, otherwise he would hand my brother over to those Death Eaters, I had no choice but to do so."

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding...】

Darren said sluggishly, his tone without a ripple.

But through his words, it was clearly understandable how much psychological struggle he went through after seeing that note.

"Fart! Fart! I didn't! Stop it quickly, give him the antidote, make him shut that damn mouth.

No, this Veritaserum is not right at all, it must be fake, it's an invalid accusation!"

Fudge shouted loudly.

Dumbledore stopped him seriously.

"I'll see who dares? Let Potter continue speaking!"

He never expected that Darren kept taking all the mistakes upon himself, actually because of Fudge.

"Darren, tell me, is Minister Fudge's name written on that note? Or do you think it might be a misunderstanding?"

Dumbledore asked seriously.

After all, accusing a Minister was indeed too shocking.

"The note is in the pocket of my right clothes; after I got the note, I thought it was given to me by the Death Eaters."
