As far as Ivan's eyes were, stood an old witch, about 60 or 70 years old, wearing a shabby and old robe.
She doesn't look tall, she is squatting, with tears remaining in the corners of her eyes, she is constantly begging a member of the Wisengama Tribunal, and she is still holding a shiny golden thing tightly in her hand.
Perhaps feeling Ivan's gaze, the old witch turned her head, and after seeing Ivan's appearance, she stared at him with a hateful look.
Ivan felt a little strange because he didn't know each other.
However, the old witch blushed and waved the cane angrily, and struck him with a slap in the face.
Fortunately, the Auror who was next to him reacted in time and stopped the other person, but the old witch was indeed reluctant. She tried hard to break free, crying and shouting.
"You liars, scumbags! My son is a glorious Merlin knight, a hero who resists mysterious people..."
The member of the Wisengama Tribunal next to him waved his hand in annoyance, and the two Aurors dragged her out...
Hermione and Ron were scared enough by the old woman's behavior. Ivan had some guesses in his heart, but he turned his head to look at Dumbledore and asked.
"Professor, who is she?"
"That's Pettigrew's mother, Mrs. Peter!" Dumbledore sighed slowly, and replied.
Hearing this, Hermione and the others fell silent, and they looked at the old witch who was dragged out of the waiting room with pity.
Ivan shook his head secretly, no wonder the other party was so excited.
Any mother will be ecstatic when she learns that the child she has already sacrificed is actually still alive.
But the Auror who came to inform will soon break the other's fantasy!
Because of his identity as Pettigrew, he is no longer a hero who sacrificed honorably for his friends, but a thug who betrayed his friends, took refuge in the Dark Lord, and killed a large number of Muggles!
is now facing more than 20 accusations, and it is very likely that he will be executed immediately after this trial...
Such a contrast is obviously not acceptable to a 60-70-year-old witch.
Dumbledore wondered whether other colleagues had the same experience as himself.
咚咚...
At this moment, the dull bell suddenly rang, and the Aurors in the waiting hall escorted Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew out as if they had received an order.
Dumbledore turned to look at Harry and the others, and finally reminded. "The court will start soon, don't be too nervous, you are here waiting for the summons, and when you are asked questions, just tell the truth!"
After finishing talking Dumbledore walked out the door with the Aurors.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione who stayed all looked very nervous. They discussed countermeasures in a low voice, even simulating mutual questions and answers...
"Ivan, aren't you nervous?" Hermione looked at him strangely.
Ivan shook his head. Although he was also the first time he went to the Wizarding Court, he had a great chance of winning this time. It was not him who was on trial. What's the cause of panic.
Harry and Ron didn't think so. They were crazy about the predicament they might encounter in the trial court, and anxiously asked Ivan how to deal with it.
"Didn't Professor Dumbledore tell you? Just tell the truth! Just be careful not to be misled... If you have anything to hide, just say you don't know! I don't know! Anyway, don't lie!" Ivan was helpless. Said.
He thinks that the level of lying of Harry and others is so bad that it is easy to be seen through on the spot, so that the truths told before are no longer credible.
This is probably the reason why Dumbledore has always emphasized letting them tell the truth.
Harry and the others were chatting, the door of the waiting hall was suddenly opened, and a solemn Auror stood at the door and said to Ivan.
"Mr. Ivan Hals! Defender Albus Percival Woolfrick Brian Dumbledore asks you to testify in court!"
Ivan nodded, stood up, followed behind the Auror, and walked all the way to the door of the courtroom.
Auror opened the door and said blankly.
"Go in! Also, for the safety of the venue, you cannot bring your magic wand in!"
