Witcher at Hogwarts - Chapter 328 Prison Break Investigation
Ethan glanced over, noticing that Scrimgeour and the Aurors behind him seemed nervous.
They held their wands tightly, but hid them all in their sleeves.
Seemingly ready to deal with Ethan’s sudden attack.
This made Ethan feel both irritated and amused.
“No problem, where shall we go?” Ethan said easily.
“Director Scrimgeour, I think one by one” Penello suddenly stood up at this time, as if he wanted to defend Ethan.
“Quiet, go to the side! Miss Cloveratt!” said Scrimgeour firmly.
“Penello, you don’t have to do this, thank you for helping me.” Ethan said to Penello softly.
Penello seemed to want to say something, but he finally stepped aside under Ethan’s gesture.
“Mr. Ethan, we need you to hand over your sword and wand one by one,” said Scrimgeour again.
His expression looked a little tense and seemed very nervous.
“I don’t think it’s necessary,” Ethan said lightly.
“Ethan, you know, this is a necessary procedure,” Scrimgeour said again, without any intention of backing down.
Ethan’s eyes were fixed on Scrimgeour’s face, but Ethan finally let go.
“Okay one one,” Ethan said, taking his long sword off his back and his wand, and handing them all to Penello.
Seeing Ethan’s cooperation, Scrimgeour and the Aurors behind him finally relaxed.
“Ethan, thank you for your cooperation,” Scrimgeour whispered. “Now, please come with us.”
Then, Scrimgeour and the Aurors, with a tendency to surround Ethan invisibly, led Ethan to an empty office in the Division of Magical Law Enforcement.
“It’s interesting.” Ethan pouted, “I thought you were going to take me to the interrogation room,” Ethan said sarcastically.
“Ethan, you misunderstood, this time is not an interrogation – the fact that Azkaban escaped from prison on a large scale is too big, each of us has been investigated, and it happens that you are not in this period of time”
“This time it’s just a regular questioning, and each of us has experienced it,” Scrimgeour said, pretending to be sincere.
“Okay, okay, then let’s start as soon as possible, there’s still a bunch of mess outside!” Ethan said impatiently.
“Okay, okay.” Scrimgeour agreed, pulling out a chair and sitting across from Ethan.
A notebook with a black cover was placed on the table.
Scrimgeour tapped the notebook twice with his finger, and the notebook automatically unfolded, and a shorthand quill floated up, recording the conversation between the two.
“Ethan, you went to Azkaban some time ago and raised the prisoner Bellatrix Lestrange, right?” Scrimgeour asked in a businesslike tone.
“Yes, I went, but everything was done in a reasonable and lawful manner, and Alastor Moody, Dumbledore, and many others can testify to me.”
Ethan said calmly.
“Okay, okay,” Scrimgeour muttered.
“What have you been up to the last few days, and last night?” Scrimgeour continued.
“I’m training my students for the Triwizard Tournament, and either the two students or the other students at Hogwarts can testify for me,” Ethan continued.
“Last Ethan, what did you do last night?” Scrimgeour asked again.
“I destroyed a Voldemort Horcrux with Dumbledore, and this Headmaster Dumbledore can prove it for me.” Ethan said again.
Gu Yan
Hearing Ethan’s words, Scrimgeour’s eyes widened in surprise, looking into Ethan’s face to make sure he wasn’t joking.
“Okay, thank you Ethan, we’re going to confirm something now, please stay here for a while,” said Scrimgeour.
With that said, Scrimgeour stood up, took the black-covered notebook, and quickly left the office.
Ethan’s treatment finally got better, and several house elves brought coffee and dessert to Ethan.
While Ethan was enjoying dessert, Scrimgeour trotted into the office again.
“Ethan, the investigation is over, you have no questions, thank you for your cooperation,” said Scrimgeour. “Now, you are free to act.”
Ethan didn’t want to be in the office for a long time, he packed up and left the office.
As soon as he went out, Ethan saw Penello holding his sword and standing nervously at the door of the office.
Seeing Ethan coming out, Penello let out a long sigh of relief and smiled at Ethan.
“Great, Professor Ethan! You’re all right!” Penello said happily.
“Thank you for your concern, Penello.” Eason said to Penello.
“Now, I have to go to Azkaban,” Ethan said.
Penello quickly informed the other members of the team that they had arrived at the scene, and with a crackling sound, Ethan and the students of the Magic Crisis Response Team disappeared in the corridor of the Ministry of Magic.
Reached the outskirts of Azkaban.
As soon as he arrived in Azkaban, Ethan noticed that there was a huge gap in Azkaban’s stone tower.
It seems that the group of Death Eaters escaped from there.
“Hey! Who are you? Get out of here and don’t destroy the crime scene!” At this time, someone discovered the group of people who came.
A young Auror approached, trying to stop the others from going deeper.
But when he walked in front of Ethan, the Auror immediately recognized Ethan.
“Ah! Mr. Ethan, hello!” The young Auror greeted Ethan nervously.
“Hello,” Ethan responded mildly to the young Auror.
At this time, Ethan noticed that the Auror was hanging his arm, obviously his arm was injured.
“You were in Azkaban when the prisoners escaped?” Ethan asked the young Auror.
“Yes,” the young Auror nodded. “It was terrifying at the time.”
The young Auror trembled involuntarily as he spoke, and it seemed that he still had some lingering fears.
“What did you notice then?” Ethan asked the Auror carefully.
“I was pushing a cart to deliver meals to the prisoners in the light penal area, and then I heard a loud noise, and it was very noisy upstairs.”
“I heard noises and fighting sounds coming from upstairs. When I heard this sound, the prisoners in the light penal district were making a fuss. At this time, I realized that someone had escaped from the prison one by one.”
Then the young Auror told Ethan a bunch of trivial things and the reason for his injury.
The reason why this silly boy was injured was not because of the battle, but because the silly boy was too nervous and his arm was broken by the cart.
This nonsensical answer made Ethan a little dumbfounded.
Afterwards, Ethan took his team members and walked towards the top floor where the Death Eaters were being held.
The scene here has not been destroyed, so Ethan can clearly see the fighting scene and many Auror corpses still lying on the ground, trying to prevent the Death Eaters from escaping.
