Chapter 188: The Sky Can't Turn Dark Yet

~7 min read 1,310 words

"Sir, we belong to emergency avoidance. It was the Dementor that appeared in the Muggle world and attacked us."

Hearing Jielier's words, Hermione immediately stood up to refute.

"These words are useless to me, I am only responsible for bringing back the guys who don't follow the rules."

Regarding Hermione's refutation, Jielier responded coldly.

"Wait, Jielier, Dementors appearing should belong to a magical creature out-of-control incident. Their defensive behavior has no problems at all."

"And I also noticed that there is a Severing Spell here, and the scene did not cause any exposure risk."

"According to Article 5 of the *Underage Magic Exemption Ordinance*, this belongs to legal self-defense, and they have done a good job in preventing the problem of Muggles seeing magic exposure."

At this time, David also stood up to speak for them.

"Shut up, David, don't forget that you were called here because Muggles saw magic, go and clear their memories."

Facing David's dissuasion, Jielier interrupted David's words rudely, and then pointed his hand toward the Granger couple still sitting in the car not far away.

"No! They are my parents, they have long known about the existence of magic, they are informed persons, no need to clear memories!"

Hearing this, Hermione immediately said, and David also nodded.

"That's not for you to say."

"Alright, stop casting spells, and then come with me."

But Jielier didn't intend to listen to their words at all, just ordered coldly.

"No Jielier, I don't agree with your approach, you are completely abusing your power."

"What you should deal with is that Dementor that is ready to move, not these two children, and their parents."

David, who had been scolded once, still stood in front of John and Hermione, saying very firmly.

".... Tsk."

"I told them earlier, don't let this guy come..."

Seeing David's behavior, Jielier gave a low tsk, and muttered to himself, not knowing what he said.

Only to see his face look ugly, he grabbed David's collar and pulled him not far away.

"David, you behave yourself!"

"This is an order from above, just obey it obediently, this is good for you and for me!"

Jielier grabbed David's collar with one hand and whispered a scolding in his ear.

Order from above?

Hearing Jielier's words, David was obviously stunned.

But as someone who had been rolling in the Ministry of Magic for so many years, he immediately understood.

John must have offended someone, and someone above wanted to mess with him.

Thinking of this, David, who was originally very tough, softened immediately.

He didn't dare to offend the people above; he had finally mixed into this comfortable iron rice bowl, and he couldn't lose it just like that.

In all fairness, he and John were not familiar at all, and it wasn't worth risking his future for this little thing.

He lowered his eyes silently and loosened his clenched fists.

Seeing this, Jielier snorted coldly, let go of David's collar, and pushed him toward the car of the Granger couple not far away.

Seeing Jielier walk over again, and David, who had just protected them, walking silently toward the Granger couple's car, John knew that Mr. David had tried his best.

John took a deep breath and looked at Jielier.

Only to see that Jielier had already taken out his wand.

"Hand over the wand, don't worry, nothing will happen, just lock you up temporarily."

Seeming to feel that the task was about to be completed, Jielier's tone was not so aggressive.

However...

"Going with you is fine, but I will bring this Dementor with me."

"It just so happens that I also need the Ministry of Magic to give me an explanation, why the Dementors under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic appeared in the Muggle world and attacked us."

Originally, John didn't want to be like this, but since there was no way to avoid those troublesome things, then simply make things bigger.

Saying this, John raised the wand that was maintaining the Patronus Charm, and that silver screen covering the Dementor flew in front of them with the Dementor.

Looking at the Dementor struggling and twisting in the silver light at close range, Jielier's pupils shrank, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

But soon he returned to calm and shook his head.

"Dementors will have special people to deal with them, no need for you to bring them to the Ministry of Magic."

"No, I think you misunderstood, Mr. Jielier, it's not the Ministry of Magic looking for me now, but I am looking for the Ministry of Magic to ask for an explanation."

John's tone was still light, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Hearing this, Jielier was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted.

John is trying to shift responsibility, no.... the responsibility was not on him in the first place.

He knew very well that there must be someone who authorized and condoned the Dementors entering the Muggle world behind this.

But this is not what he should consider. The order from above is very clear: arrest John, let the Dementor go, and then he gets promoted and gets a raise...

At this thought, Jielier's voice suddenly rose, directly putting a high hat on John.

"You are obstructing official business! The Ministry of Magic will not tolerate this provocative behavior!"

Saying this, he also raised his wand and pointed at John, the tip of the wand shining with a cold light, ready to act at any time.

However, John was not scared at all.

He raised his hand and grabbed toward Jielier, his palm closing suddenly.

Jielier's wand suddenly left his hand and flew into John's hand.

!!!

This action surprised everyone present.

Jielier felt his wand leave his hand, and Jielier's first reaction was disbelief.

He could actually disarm himself without a wand and a spell?

Then it was shame and anger.

"You actually dare to attack an Auror!"

"You are publicly defying the law enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, adding to the crime!"

Jielier roared, staring at his own wand in John's hand with a livid face.

David and Mike not far away didn't expect that John would dare to resist directly.

Hermione was also startled, but still stood by John's side, raising her wand to be on guard.

And John was not scared by Jielier's words.

"You can just bluff yourself with these words, you can't even distinguish right from wrong, and you still call it law enforcement."

"If Dumbledore were one of you, I would worry a bit, but it's a pity that Dumbledore is on the side of justice. This sky, it can't turn dark yet."

John smiled lightly, flicked the wand he had confiscated, and continued to say.

"I abide by the law because the law itself is worthy of respect, not because I am afraid of you bureaucrats who use the banner of law enforcement to bully others."

"If you can't uphold justice, then I can uphold it myself."

Jielier looked at John's "high and mighty" appearance and gritted his teeth.

Then he turned and shouted at David and Mike not far away.

"What are you still doing! Hurry up and subdue him!"

Mike subconsciously wanted to take out his wand, but his wrist was pressed by David.

Only to see David take away Mike's wand and take out his own wand.

"I tell you, hurry up and surrender, don't think about disarming us!"

David held two wands in his hand and shouted at John pretendingly, but didn't have any intention of attacking at all.

Seeing this, John smiled, understanding David's meaning.

He raised his hand and grabbed toward David's direction, and the two wands in David's hand also flew over.

Then everyone's eyes stopped on Jielier's flushed face. ===== CHAPTER 189 =====
