On the 23rd, at the Wizengamot Parliament, all the members were seated.

Dumbledore is sitting on the highest court. As the chief wizard of the Wizengamot, he will preside over today's trial.

The other wizards who were invited were all sitting in the jury box. They participated in the trial as relatives of the victims.

Harry sat next to Neville and Ron, both first-year Gryffindors, and Raven sat next to Cedric Diggory, a third-year Hufflepuff wizard. The team's Seeker.

Unlike Raven, who is not keen on socializing and is busy with his own affairs every day, this is the main points earner of Hufflepuff House. He is honest and enthusiastic. He has a good reputation not only in Hufflepuff, but also in the other three houses. .

Ferdinand Diggory, the murdered member of the Order of the Phoenix, was Cedric's uncle, and they came as family members of the murdered man.

Since Cedric was not old enough to remember when Ferdinand Diggory died, he was in the mood to chat with Raven, unlike his parents who glared at Peter Pettigrew in the dock. .

"I heard that Sirius Black is the godfather of Harry Potter. Everyone used to think that he was the undercover Death Eater who betrayed his companions, so they hated him very much. The previous Minister of Magic arrested him in Aziz without trial. This is also the reason for Caban.”

Cedric took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Raven, and it was this junior who handed the Firebolt to him.

Raven shared her information with him

"If he really was Harry's godfather, Harry's situation would be greatly improved,

Harry has been living at his aunt's house these years and has not lived a good life. The wizarding world has no way to interfere with his family life.

Sirius was very famous back then, and he was still a descendant of Black. With the help of this godfather, the Muggle couple should be able to learn to treat their nephew well. "

Minister of Magic Fudge was the last person to enter the trial venue.

The Auror he brought led Sirius, who came out of Azkaban, to the witness stand.

Fudge himself walked into the front of the jury box with a gray-haired lady.

Millicent Barnold, the former Minister of Magic, is a member of the Wizengamot Wizarding Council. Since she chooses to attend with Fudge, it means that this woman has voluntarily given up her identity as a member of the Wizengamot Wizarding Council. This is the only honor she retains.

When Sirius saw Peter Pettigrew, whose hands and feet were bound by a spell and his mouth was sealed, he subconsciously wanted to take out his wand and hit the traitor with the most vicious spell inherited from the Black family.

During those painful days of being sucked by dementors, he often had such hallucinations.

But this is no longer Azkaban, there are no hallucinations, his wand has been broken, and this Peter Pettigrew is still alive, for now.

Realizing this, Sirius suddenly turned his face to the jury box,

Redheads, no. Snotlout, no.

Then he saw the two children sitting with Ron. Harry inherited the black hair of the Peverell family. Excluding Neville with blond hair, Sirius found Harry's position.

Soon Sirius felt that what he had just done was too stupid.

He could recognize Harry at a glance because of his appearance. He was no different from James in first grade.

Harry also saw the man said to be his godfather.

Since Sirius was brought back by someone sent by Fudge, he was also thoughtfully arranged for him to wash and take care of himself.

So at this moment, Sirius has regained some of his handsomeness in his youth, and he has always been the most popular one in Gryffindor.

Today's photo will definitely stay in the Daily Prophet. Fudge wouldn't mind getting closer to the current head of the Black family.

What's more, this is a bitter hero, and maintaining a good relationship with him can also maintain Fudge's image in the eyes of ordinary wizards.

But in Harry's opinion, Sirius's face was still yellow and haggard. He was imprisoned in Azkaban and would never escape the dementors' predation in his Animagus form.

He was here to atone for his sins, and the accumulated losses could not be made up for in a short time.

Soon, the trial began. The highest level trial in the Wizengamot was naturally conducted using wizard methods.

Several wizards carried a huge golden scale to the trial venue.

The two ends of the scale are not scales, but two spheres. The surface of each sphere is engraved with a rune. Everyone here is a wizard, so they naturally recognize the meaning of the runes. The rune on the left represents truth. The rune on the right represents falsehood.

In the center of the scale is a human head with closed eyes carved out of gold.

A wizard brought Peter Pettigrew in the dock to the scales. As Dumbledore raised the golden gavel and struck it, the human head on the scales opened his eyes and stared at Peter Pettigrew.

Dumbledore said solemnly.

\u0027\u0027Peter Pettigrew, are you Voldemort's lackey? \"

The prisoner didn't have a chance to speak. The ball on the left side of the scale fell, "Yes"

Dumbledore continued to hammer down, and the scales reset.

"Peter Pettigrew, have you betrayed the Potters?"

The sphere on the left side of the scale continues to fall, "Yes"

After a series of questions, the presiding judge Dumbledore ended the questioning, and the Wizengamot members prepared and asked questions on their own. This was to avoid the presiding judge's favoritism and the use of trap questions in the trial.

But there is no doubt that Peter Pettigrew is the prisoner.

When the MPs finished questioning, Dumbledore stood up and announced the result of the trial.

"After the trial and decision of the Wizengamot Wizarding Council, the prisoner, Peter Pettigrew, was deprived of all honors and rights.

He was given the Dementor's Kiss and escorted to Azkaban for execution by the British Ministry of Magic-Auror Office.

Additionally, I declare that Sirius Black is acquitted of Peter Pettigrew's crime. "

There was warm applause at the trial.

Mr. and Mrs. Weasley couldn't wait to reminisce with their comrade and family.

They were there as witnesses, but unfortunately Peter Pettigrew's evidence was solid, and the witnesses had already convicted themselves of the Dementor's Kiss before they even came on the scene.

But they also knew that Sirius had too many people to meet. Although they were comrades on the same front as Sirius, he still had more important people to greet.

Unexpectedly, Dumbledore brought Sirius and Harry to their house.

"Sirius, you are able to clear your name this time thanks to the Weasley family. It happened to be Raven Weasley who brought the criminal to us, so that we could give him a chance to be tried." Dumbledore said to the little boy Sirius introduced.

Sirius bowed deeply to Raven.

Dumbledore had promised Raven not to reveal his identity and asked Sirius to come over to express his gratitude in this way. This was the result of Dumbledore's careful consideration.

After all, he knew very well that Raven was the one who played the biggest role in this matter.

Others are just performing under his arrangement.

As a beneficiary, Sirius could not remain silent.

Raven quickly helped Sirius up and let Arthur, Molly and Black talk about old times, but they didn't chat for too long.

There were still many people who wanted to meet Sirius later, so the Weasley family left first.
