Isn't This More Exciting Than Cleaning?

If it's just a single event, it could be a coincidence.

But two trials in one day... everyone knows there's something fishy going on.

Harry was alright; he only used magic in front of Muggle.

At worst, he'd break his wand and get expelled from school. Hagrid has plenty of experience to draw upon from his predecessors in this regard.

Since he wouldn't be back for a while, Harry could take over the job of the key keeper, successfully complete his withdrawal from school, and then transfer to an on-campus internship.

While earning a stable salary, he was also auditing courses at Hogwarts... without the pressure of assignments and a degree.

Isn't that wonderful?

Anyway, I'll still have to find a job after graduation... and employment is so difficult.

Now, I'll find you a security captain position on a university campus, with food, drinks, and lodging provided... plus a lot of illicit income (Forbidden Forest).

If you work there long enough, you might even have the chance to become a full-fledged professor and receive two salaries.

So, are you willing to just laze around and wait to die?!

Therefore, Harry's problem is really not a big deal.

But Hermione is in big trouble; she's been accused of assaulting Umbridge.

Who is Umbridge?

Minister Fudge's most trusted female chief secretary is Wizengamot, the United Kingdom representative of the International Confederation of Wizards... she can be described as having a high position and great power.

Privately, people in the department all called her: Fudge's third leg.

It's still that chivalrous yet tender-hearted man in the middle!

Three Auror were also attacked... If this is all confirmed, they will definitely be identified as dark wizards, the kind who would be imprisoned in Azkaban for life.

For a moment, the entire living room fell silent, as if the air had frozen.

Incredulity, shock, bewilderment... a variety of expressions changed on everyone's faces.

My God, Heaven's Father, Allah Merlin, Death's second uncle!

Mr. Weasley, who was about to leave, was instantly enraged!

"This is a shameless depravity! How could the Ministry of Magic impose such a crime on a child!"

If Harry's crime is petty theft, then Hermione is being accused of terrorism... not only assaulting a police officer, but also attacking a national leader.

These are crimes from completely different dimensions.

Mr. Weasley believed this was a deliberate attempt to smear him.

"Has Fudge become so shameless? Starting with this kind of framing. I'm going to find Scrimgeour immediately."

Mr. Weasley's words were met with unanimous approval.

Hermione put the letter away and said calmly:

"It's true. William was fighting the North Sea Kraken at the time, and I took Gregorovitch to find him."

Umbridge spotted me and ordered three Auror to capture me.

In a moment of desperation, I knocked them all unconscious.

However, they went a little too far when they struck, and Umbridge was hospitalized for several days.

Everyone gasped in shock. One against four... and he still managed to seriously injure them?

Ron swallowed hard and stammered:

"Three Auror and one adult wizard... that's an exaggeration!"

He always believed that although Hermione had good grades, she was just a bookworm and only won so many awards because of William.

Even if

In terms of actual combat ability, he's probably just average, not much better than him.

But he could also defeat four adult wizards at the same time, three of whom were Auror...

It's just a dream!

He even defeated William in his dreams; was he arrogant?

"Now is not the time to worry about Hermione's abilities, but to prevent the Ministry of Magic from admitting guilt!" Mrs. Weasley said calmly.

"Should we go and ask Dumbledore to come back? This is a big deal. If he's convicted... we're finished."

William calmly said:

"It's alright, Fudge doesn't have the power to convict Hermione yet, you don't need to worry."

Mr. Weasley, you should go to the Ministry of Magic to deal with Harry's matter first; that's the most urgent thing.

"Oh... alright..." Mr. Weasley turned and left.

Since William said so, what could anyone else say? Although they were worried, they could only accept it.

But for a moment, the living room remained completely silent as everyone processed the matter.

Hermione admitted it, and the other party even filed a lawsuit... which means there is evidence.

Is it even possible to pull off such a miraculous comeback?!

"Harry... could we bring him here?" Ron suddenly asked.

Before the holidays, Harry told me that I absolutely had to invite him to the Burrow during the summer break.

"Yes, after something like this happened, his aunt and uncle will make things difficult for him," Fred said.

"And his fat, big-eared cousin," George chuckled. "Last summer..."

"You two dare to say that!" Mrs. Weasley snapped. "You gave him toffee!"

Last summer, when Mr. Weasley went to pick up Harry, the twins deliberately dropped the magical toffee on the ground.

After Cousin Harry ate it, his tongue grew bigger.

"That's his own problem," Fred argued. "I just accidentally dropped it on the floor."

Mrs. Weasley glared at him and said hesitantly:

"I'd like Harry to come too, but Dumbledore said he has to stay with his aunt."

But now something unexpected has happened... things are different now, and everyone is looking at William.

With Dumbledore gone, no one here except William knew what to do.

"It's not impossible," William said slowly.

Harry had to live with his aunt because of Lily's protective charm.

That spell was originally a one-time use spell, but Dumbledore extended the magic until Harry came of age... on the condition that Harry had to stay at his aunt's house for a period of time each year and treat it as his home.

Because Aunt Harry has the same blood as Lily.

But Voldemort had already obtained Harry's blood, and the protective charm was also inside him... As long as Voldemort lived, the charm would exist forever.

Even if Harry never goes back to his aunt's house, even if Harry becomes an adult... it will still be the same.

In other words, Dumbledore turned something disposable into something with a seventeen-year shelf life... and Voldemort turned it into something with a permanent shelf life.

Harry was going back to his aunt's house, not to delay the protective charm, but to paralyze Voldemort.

Otherwise, he'll discover that as long as he doesn't die, the protective charm won't disappear.

But Harry had already lived there for a month, so he could leave.

William thought for a moment, then nodded and said:

"There's no time to lose. Send someone to bring Harry over now."

"But no one is free right now; all the Order of the Order of the Phoenix members are on missions," Mrs. Weasley said hesitantly.

"As for Mundungus... I simply can't trust him anymore."

"We can go!" George shouted.

"Yeah, we're adults now, stop doubting our abilities!" Fred said, annoyed.

William smiled and said:

"No need, George, Fred, Cedric, and Cho, the four of them are enough."

"But..."

George jumped up and laughed, "To be honest, it's true!"

Fred nodded as well:

"Isn't this more exciting than cleaning?"
