The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts Chapter 211

"I don't quite understand why..." Hagrid's eyes showed a hint of confusion. "I received a letter from the Ministry of Magic this morning saying that my case was moved to Friday, which is next Friday."

Everyone present except Tom frowned. Tom understood that it was Burns in action.

"Could it be the ghost of that old guy Lucius?" Ron thought about it, and always felt that there must be a conspiracy behind this sudden change.

"It's hard to say," Harry, who was sitting next to him, shook his head, "but we have no choice."

"Send a letter to the Knight Bus first, and book two berths on the bus. This should be the easiest way - it's not practical to transport Buckbeak by broom or Floo network." Hermione was in Think about countermeasures. She understood that Hagrid had absolutely no bargaining power in the face of orders from the Ministry of Magic, so the first thing he had to do was figure out how to take Buckbeak to London.

Hermione thought about it, and felt that the traditional method was not feasible - Hagrid was too big, and Buckbeak was too big. Can only hope in the simplest way: by car.

And due to the restrictions of the Secrecy Act, one person and one beast must go directly to the Ministry of Magic.

"Also, you'll need a statement of defense, a decent suit, and if possible, your hair and beard—the first impression to the jury is important." Hermione was already planning.

"Yeah...you're right..." Hagrid acted, pulling out an oversized furry brown coat and a yellow-orange tie from his closet. After finding the clothes, he lay down on the table and started writing to the person in charge of the Knight Bus.

Hermione took out a piece of parchment and began to write a defense for Hagrid - Hagrid himself hadn't said a word before, which was too difficult for him. As for the three Toms, they sat obediently on the side, trying not to get in the way.

Harry and Ron were terribly underprepared, and Tom wasn't prepared at all. He hadn't seen a single Fantastic Beast case, but he had made a connection for Hagrid.

The night went by in such a busy way.

Friday came. Hagrid fed Buckbeak early in the morning and led him onto the Knights Bus. The Knight Bus deliberately did not carry other passengers for Hagrid's sake. Because the hippogriff is too dangerous, it is likely to injure other passengers. Buckbeak even gets into the car from the back door, so you can avoid drivers and conductors.

Not everyone can get the Hippogriff's approval. If Buckbeak didn't accept the two bows, Hagrid would be in big trouble.

As Hagrid got out of the car, two wizards approached. One was extremely old and seemed to shrink in front of Hagrid in the next second, while the other was tall and burly with big arms and round waists.

Just as the old wizard took a few trembling steps, Hagrid signaled him to stop in a panic. This unexpected move startled the old man. Judging from his appearance, it was almost as if he had walked before the gate of hell.

"Please bow to Buckbeak first so he doesn't attack you, Buckbeak is just very gentle—"

"So if we don't bow, is this beast going to attack us?" said the tall wizard's urn, anger in his voice that even Hagrid could hear.

"Ah, um, this—" Hagrid was speechless. He couldn't deny what the man said, but his intuition told him that once admitted, the consequences would be very serious.

It was the old wizard who stood up and said, "It's okay, it's okay... Fantastic animals, it's normal... This is the nature of hippogriffs, don't make a fuss... Oh, old, useless, I actually I just remembered this now..."

He said tremblingly, his tone was intermittent, making people worried that he would die in the next second.

"This way..." The old wizard narrowed his eyes, "We keep a distance from you, you take it to the courtroom..."

Hagrid nodded again and again, and took Buckbeak to the Judgment Hall of the Ministry of Magic as ordered by the old wizard. Which is another toss. Obviously, Buckbeak is wary of unfamiliar environments and has a strong sense of resistance.

Without the help of the old wizard, he might have been arrested before he even got to the courtroom. The old wizard was very kind and helped Hagrid to clear the pedestrians on the road ahead of time, and reserved a special elevator for him and Buckbeak to ensure that they went all the way to the Judgment Hall and would not stop in the middle.

These are the conventions of the Ministry of Magic, and the old wizards are familiar with them.

"Why do you have to work so hard?" After Hagrid entered the elevator, the strong man muttered dissatisfiedly, took out a handkerchief from the pocket of his robe, and wiped the sweat from the senior's forehead, "I want to say, Just leave them alone, let that beast go mad at the Ministry of Magic and hurt people—"

"McMillan!" The old wizard gave his junior a stern look, "I know you have been in charge of the execution, but so far the verdict has not been handed down, we can't have a discriminatory attitude towards prisoners! Everything must be done according to the rules. Come on...cough-cough-"

He spoke very fast, and he coughed at the end.

"Okay, follow the rules," the strong man hurriedly stroked the old wizard's back and verbally agreed.

"But I don't think that guy's chances of winning are big. Lucius Malfoy is determined to win this time, and he has gathered a large group of wizards from the pure-blood family to help out..."

Hearing the words, the old wizard could not help but sigh to himself, his heart was clear. He knew he couldn't refuse Malfoy's request. This time, the man named Hagrid will lose the case.

I'm sorry, Albus, who made Hagrid offend the wrong guy?

Hagrid walked into the courtroom and found that it was different from other courtrooms. The whole courtroom was like a bowl. The jury was at the edge of the bowl, while Hagrid and Buckbeak were at the bottom of the bowl, surrounded by iron railings. Wrap it up as if in a big cage.

This is where the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Animals comes to trial. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Due to the particularity of the trial objects, this place has been remodeled. It is completely different from other courtrooms. The accused and accused animals will be tried in cages.

At this point, a group of committee members were already seated. After a while, the old man just now also appeared here, but instead of sitting on the jury bench, he went directly to the chairperson's seat.

Then came the audience who had come to sit in—since Hagrid's case was unremarkable, the audience that would come here were all members of the pure-blooded family that Lucius Malfoy had invited over.

Seeing one wizard after another entering the hall, the people of the committee gradually became agitated. At this time, the balance in their hearts has begun to tilt.
