After the hammer called trial was knocked down hard and Umbridge's verdict was officially announced, a small number of Wizengamot members who participated in the trial gradually came to their senses.
There is something very wrong with this trial!
With all the shit Umbridge has done, it's not too late to die a few times, but now that guy is sentenced to life in prison?
Although this is the harshest sentence currently available, it may not satisfy everyone.
No, it should be said that such a verdict is destined to fail to satisfy everyone, especially after this matter is officially announced in the "Daily Prophet", God knows what kind of response it will cause in the British magical community.
But why would Kingsley do such a thankless job?
Pure stupidity, or...
Many people turned their attention to the two people on the main seat.
If this is what Kingsley wants to see, then the only one who will be unlucky is... They turned their attention to the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement next to Kingsley.
This was a pure-blood wizard with a prominent family background. He was used by some people with ulterior motives to restrain Kingsley, and was promoted to the position of Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
Kingsley's minister is temporary, but the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement is not. The most important thing is that the entire trial process is presided over by that person. After all, Kingsley is only a temporary minister. In a sense,
In fact, he was not qualified to sit there. He came to participate in this trial more as a witness.
"This trial was a trap from the beginning. The purpose was just to get that unfortunate Mr. Director to get out?"
Bud looked at Albert beside him suspiciously.
"Kingsley is not stupid, on the contrary, he is actually very smart." Albert said noncommittally.
"I thought you didn't like political fighting."
Bard muttered hello to his colleagues who were coming over. Apparently many members of the Wizengamot were confused by the previous trials, but their years of rich experience made them realize that something was wrong with the trial.
"What the hell are they doing?"
"This is not the place to talk." Bud smiled and greeted Albert, "Together?"
"You know, I still have a lot of things to do." Albert said hello to the others and left alone.
"Let's go and change places."
After Bard and his friends left the Ministry of Magic, they had a rare meeting to discuss today's trial. No one could understand why Kingsley would take such a risk.
But as everyone expected, when Umbridge's crimes were presented to the British wizarding public through newspapers, almost everyone was extremely dissatisfied with the final trial of the Ministry of Magic. They could not accept that they had done so many bad things.
Umbridge, who had killed so many poor people, was only sentenced to life imprisonment.
Especially those poor people who had been tortured and persecuted thought that Umbridge did not deserve such mercy.
After all, because of her relationship, countless Muggle wizards who were innocently convicted and sent to Azkaban did not survive the cruel torture.
However, no matter how angry everyone is, the outcome of the Wizengamot trial cannot be changed, and Umbridge's fate has been decided after the hammer called the trial fell.
This directly caused the anger that could not be vented to turn into a terrible anger that could no longer be suppressed, and what everyone was worried about happened on the third night.
At that time, Kingsley was working overtime at the Ministry of Magic when he suddenly received an urgent message: his home was gone.
It was set on fire.
Kingsley hurried to the scene with the Auror team and saw the burning ruins of the building and the clearly visible Dark Mark.
Looking at his home that had been reduced to a sea of flames, Kingsley could not see any emotional change on his face. Everyone knew that it was the dissatisfaction of the supporters.
Just like what Albert said, everyone wanted Umbridge to die, but the Ministry of Magic let her live.
Fortunately, Kingsley had already anticipated this. Looking up at the blazing flames and the Dark Mark floating above the house, he determined this incident to be the revenge of the Death Eaters.
The attack on the Minister of Magic quickly spread in the newspapers. Although the burning house had the Dark Mark on it, many people did not think it was the work of Death Eaters.
How dare those cowardly guys jump out and jump around at this time?
"That's victim rage."
In the wizard's watch broadcast, Lee Jordan mentioned the trial of Umbridge without hesitation, and by the way put Kingsley on the side of the innocent victim.
After all, according to the regulations of the Ministry of Magic, Kingsley, who is not yet the Minister of Magic, is participating in this trial more as a witness. Even if he wants to sentence Umbridge to death, he is not qualified.
Therefore, it is actually self-evident who should take the blame for this trial.
Coupled with the situation of the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, anyone with any brains has already realized the "inside" information that some people want them to know.
This outrageous move caused some of the pure-blood wizarding families who had secretly held Kingsley back to have their mentality exploded, because they also realized that they had been pushed from behind the scenes to the forefront.
It is not a good thing to go against the majority of wizards, especially when they are completely exposed to everyone's gaze, the situation will be even worse.
Because most wizards are actually easily influenced, they don't think about the reasons themselves. They are more likely to follow the trend after being influenced by the emotions of the masses.
"This was actually your idea for Kingsley?"
"Of course not, I just gave him a heads up and told him that people would not want to see the sinful Umbridge alive." Albert shook his head and denied that this matter had anything to do with him, "But he told me,
The laws enacted by the Ministry of Magic are difficult to amend, and he, the interim minister, is not qualified to do so."
"Isn't he worried that the situation will get out of control?" Fred was particularly shocked.
"This is what politicians are!" Albert said meaningfully. "They are better at political games. As for the consequences, they actually don't care much because in their eyes it is not the first priority problem that should be solved."
Therefore, it was the turn of the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement to be unlucky.
His disappearance alarmed the entire Ministry of Magic. Although the interim minister attributed his disappearance to the Death Eaters' revenge, not many people were willing to believe this nonsense.
Even though there was evidence that the Dark Mark appeared when the Minister of Magic's house was burned down, it proved that it was the good deeds of evil Death Eaters.
The Aurors worked overtime all night, and finally spent several days finally finding the "Death Eaters" stronghold, repelling the dark wizard hiding there, and finding the Magical Law Enforcement Department in the dungeon who had been tortured by the Cruciatus Curse and turned into a human being.
Director.
To this end, Kingsley held an emergency press conference and expressed his determination to crack down on the Death Eaters with righteous indignation.
