Chapter 299: Chapter 299

"I am Rupert Mulciber, an expert on ancient runes. I have published books such as "The Historical Evolution of Ancient Runes" and "The Relationship between Magic Curses and Ancient Runes."

"But what I never expected was that I was targeted by Gilderoy Lockhart's Oblivion Curse."

A middle-aged wizard with a haggard look sat on a chair in the middle of the trial room and said in a low voice.

"The Gilderoy Lockhart I know is a well-known writer in the wizarding world. I remember that he had published six books at that time."

"So I trusted him enough, so when he came to my house, I told him about my research and my vision for the future."

"In the end, I didn't expect that he can disguise himself so well."

Having said this, Rupert looked a little ferocious, full of anger, and roared loudly.

"Lockhart, he is a dark wizard. I was friendly to him, but he cruelly cast the Cruciatus Curse on me, tortured me in every possible way, and forced me to reveal all my research on runes."

Speaking of this, Rupert started to tremble all over, as if recalling his own experience of being tortured.

"Finally, he cast a forgetting spell on me to erase all my memories of research on runes."

And Rupert's angry voice also caused discussions among the Wizengamot members on both sides.

"I didn't expect that Lockhart is really a dark wizard."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, if nothing else, just proving that Lockhart cast the three unforgivable curses is enough to arrest him and send him to Azkaban."

"However, this is only Rupert's one-sided story. It is difficult to make a direct judgment."

"If it is true, then is the authenticity of the books he wrote before also questionable?"

"What do you think? I have listened to his lectures before. I don't think Lockhart is such a person"

"."

At this moment, Dumbledore was silently looking at Rango who was sitting in the middle. Although he didn't say a word, he looked closely into Rango's eyes.

clang!

"quiet!"

As if the discussion was getting louder and louder, the judge, standing opposite Rupert, knocked the small bell in front of her with a hammer, and a clang sounded.

At the same time she shouted seriously.

Soon, within a few seconds, the entire courtroom fell silent.

"Rupert Mulciber, I now ask you a question in the name of the Wizengamot."

"All your answers will be magically recorded and witnessed by everyone. Do you understand?"

"Yes." Rupert shook his head full of regret, as if he still regretted getting to know Lockhart, the dark wizard.

"Okay, do you admit that you are the founder of meditation?" the judge asked loudly.

"Yes, I am the founder of the meditation method. In fact, the original name of the meditation method is that I called it the rune cultivation method, which originated from practicing through runes."

"It was later renamed Meditation by Lockhart. It is right to say that I am the founder of Meditation."

Rupert nodded firmly and said: "Lockhart not only stole my rune method, but also gave it a new name."

"It's a pity that the Forgetting Curse was cast on me, which resulted in me losing the my memory on the runes method. It was only recently that I partially recovered it."

At this point, Rupert's tone became a little angry: "Judge, you cannot let Lockhart go, you must arrest him immediately."

After hearing this, Judge Miranda said in a deep voice: "Rupert Mulciber, please stay calm."

Then he asked again: "Do you have any evidence to prove that what you said is true?"

After hearing this, Rupert replied loudly: "Judge, I have evidence. Although I was cast a forgetting spell, I still recovered some memories about the runes."

"I developed a rune cultivation method, which is what you call a meditation method. This meditation method has not been announced to everyone. It can be used as evidence to prove that Lockhart robbed my research results."

"Okay, Rupert." Judge Miranda said solemnly again: "Please present your evidence."

Hearing this, Rupert reached out and took out a piece of parchment. At the same time, a wizard stepped forward, took the parchment, turned around, walked to the judge, and handed it to the other party.

at this time

Dumbledore, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Judge, can we identify this so call method together?"

After hearing this, the Judge looked at Rupert again, and after Rupert heard it, he said to Dumbledore without hesitation: "Principal Dumbledore, there is no problem."

"I was your student, and I have full trust in you. I hope you can also make the decision for me and arrest the dark wizard Lockhart."

"Don't give him a chance to escape."

After hearing this, Dumbledore was silent for a moment, and then said gently: "Rupert, don't worry, I will not wrong any wizard."

Hearing this, Judge Miranda waved gently, and the wizard on the side stretched out her wand, tapped the parchment in her hand, the white light flickered slightly, and then waved it hard in the air.

In an instant, a large number of words and rune patterns appeared in mid-air, which were exactly the contents on the parchment.

Dumbledore looked at the meditation text and patterns in mid-air, and his expression changed slightly.

At the same time, Rupert saw Dumbledore and begged loudly: "Principal, you have to make the decision for me."

"This meditation method can be applied to wizards, and what Lockhart came up with is a simplified version."

"This completely proves that Lockhart plundered my research results."

As he spoke, he shouted loudly to the members of the Wizengamot who were looking at the words and patterns in the air.

"Everyone, if you still have doubts, I can fully accept the use of a legilimency, veritaserum and other methods."

"As long as I can uncover the truth and arrest the dark wizard Lockhart, I am willing to try."

At this moment, Dumbledore was still silent, reviewing the meditation method he had just seen in his mind.

Although there were a lot of modifications in this meditation method, he could see the core at a glance.

because

This meditation method was developed by him and Lockhart together.

To be precise, it was Lockhart who came up with the framework and asked him for advice, and he made a lot of suggestions.

He even came up with the name, called Moonlight Meditation.

And there is no use for him to say it now.

The other party had every excuse, saying that Lockhart would probably use his name to clear his name.

The most important thing is that he just observed Rupert's expression, including using a slight legilimency.

He found that the emotions were real, that the anger and regret came completely from his heart, as if it had really happened, or he thought it had really happened to him.

Under such circumstances, no matter whether it is truth serum or legilimency, it will have no effect.

It seems that the founder of the meditation method proved that he could not stop it.

Next, Lockhart needs to be summoned for a face-to-face confrontation.

Now hopefully, Snape can arrive in time.

At the same time, Snape, wearing black wizard robes, was standing in front of the transnational magic fireplace.

Standing next to him was a middle-aged member of the Ministry of Magic.

He had just applied to go to Norway from the Department of Magical Transport, and was about to rush there to call Lockhart back.

"Professor Snape, just go in."

Hearing the middle-aged wizard's voice next to his ear, Snape nodded and entered the magic fireplace directly.

Then

call!

Green flames rose.

At the same time, a somewhat panicked voice suddenly came: "Oh no, there is a problem with the Floo network transmission."

As soon as Snape came to his senses, he felt as if his body was being stuffed into a tube, twisting and shutting in and out.

next moment.

The space changed. Snape looked at the scene in front of him, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.

He was transported to a different place!

Chapter 300: Chapter 300

British Ministry of Magic, Wizengamot Tribunal.

"I don't need the meditation method, including the runes, and will give it to all the families for free."

"My only request is Lockhart must be captured."

"This dark wizard must be captured."

In the courtroom, Rupert looked a little ferocious and hateful, shouting as if his emotions were out of control.

The Wizengamot members on the side had different expressions after hearing this.

Some were thoughtful, some nodded slightly, and some had a trace of greed in their eyes.

Dumbledore, on the other hand, was silent for a moment and said in a gentle voice: "Rupert, don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you and try my best to help you recover your lost memory."

When he said the word 'memory', his voice became serious.

As if sensing Dumbledore's attitude, Rupert's expression gradually returned to calm.

Then, Dumbledore said gently to Judge Myrdal: "Your Honor, as the chief warlock of the Wizengamot, I apply to test Rupert's current physical and mental state."

"No!" Before Judge Miranda responded, some members of the Wizengamot said immediately.

"Dumbledore, you are the principal of Hogwarts, and Lockhart is a professor at Hogwarts, so you should avoid suspicion and avoid direct contact with Rupert."

After hearing this, Judge Miranda also said in a deep voice: "Principal Dumbledore, regarding Rupert's condition, it has been evaluated at St. Mungo's Hospital."

"It's true that he was hit by a forgetting curse, and his memory was affected."

Hearing this, Dumbledore was not angry. He naturally knew that the pure-blood family would not let him have direct contact.

So he said again: "Lockhart was invited by Durmstrang the day before yesterday to give a lecture, so he temporarily left the UK."

"I think justice should wait until Lockhart returns."

"Having the two people confront each other is more reasonable and ensures accuracy."

"There's no problem with this, right?"

"This is as it should be, Principal Dumbledore." Judge Miranda said directly: "After receiving Rupert's report, the Ministry of Magic has sent people to Durmstrang to summon Lockhart."

"However, given that the location of Durmstrang is unknown, members of the Ministry of Magic are communicating with the Norwegian Ministry of Magic to apply for assistance."

"If Lockhart is innocent, I believe we will see him soon."

Hearing this, Dumbledore nodded slightly and said nothing more.

He seemed to understand the meaning of the other person's words.

If you are innocent, you will see him.

This means that if you can't see him, it means that Lockhart is not innocent.

Now I hope that Snape will arrive on time.

On his side, Dumbledore also had to deal with the Hogwarts School Board of Trustees immediately. The pure-blood family had already used their methods.

Naturally, he had no way to leave directly, or he also wanted this opportunity to see Lockhart's counter.

There was something about Lockhart that he couldn't understand now.

For example, why does he insist on going to Durmstrang at this time?

And what's going on with the Squib Meditation Class, which has become increasingly popular recently?

African Ministry of Magic.

"Are you sure your Floo network is down?"

Snape stood in an empty hall and asked the black witch in front of him.

"I'm very sorry, Professor Snape. For some unknown reason, our floo network has been experiencing failures quite frequently recently. However, the maintenance speed is very fast. It will only take about a day. It will definitely be repaired."

Yakubu, a member of the African Ministry of Magic, said apologetically: "Please wait patiently. After the repair is completed, we will let you return to the UK as soon as possible."

In response, Snape snorted expressionlessly, turned and left without saying anything.

What he didn't notice was that the witch was wearing a light silver necklace on her chest.

There is a small triangle at the bottom of the necklace, with a ring and a straight line inside.

Africa, Railay Wizard Hotel.

Snape sat on the bed in the hotel room, looking at the cakes, fried bamboo insects, and roasted snails in front of him.

His eyes were a little dull, he just wanted some African specialties.

However, the food in the eyes of African wizards is really unappetizing.

Then, with a wave of the magic wand, all the food on the table disappeared.

As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind.

Then, he sat cross-legged on the bed, and a golden dragon-like pattern appeared in his arms, flashing continuously, as if calling for something.

As time passed by, suddenly

A red flame-colored halo emerged, and a figure stepped out of it.

"Snape, where did you go?"

"Most of my magic power is used to open the portal."

Lockhart felt the warm, even hot temperature around him, raised his eyebrows, and asked jokingly.

Hearing this, Snape looked a little unhappy, and then he seemed to have thought of something and waved his wand.

In an instant, the food that had disappeared appeared on the table, such as mud cakes, fried bamboo insect, grilled snails, etc.

"Lockhart, don't you like to eat delicious food? This is a special delicacy from Africa. Do you want to try it?" Snape said maliciously.

"Haha, it turns out to be Africa." Lockhart said with a pause in his tone when he saw the weird delicacies on the table.

"Let me just say, it's still daytime over at Durmstrang, but it's already dusk over here."

With that said, Lockhart began to change the topic: "By the way, Snape what happened? Why did you come to Africa?"

Hearing Lockhart's question, Snape's face became serious and said: "The pure-blood family has found an ancient rune expert named Rupert Mulciber, saying that he is the founder of the meditation method. "

"When Albus finds out, he asked me to go to Durmstrang to contact you."

"As a result, it is very likely that the pure-blood family took action and teleported me to Africa."

"It seems that they want to hold me back and find someone to deal with you."

Hearing this, Lockhart nodded slightly and said calmly: "Everything is as expected. This time, the pure-blood family will not be made easy."

Then, he looked at Snape and said as a reminder: "On your side, just come as usual. It's best to arrive early and force the pure-blood family to take further action. The more anxious they are, the easier it is for them to reveal their flaws."

"Okay, no problem." Snape nodded and said: "Tomorrow, I will return to the UK through the African Ministry of Magic, and then rush to Norway to meet you."

Then, as if to explain: "There is no teleportation point directly to Norway from the Ministry of Magic in Africa. The best way is to return to the UK. But I'm afraid the Ministry of Magic won't be able to teleport me. I have to find other smuggling channels."

"Okay, you can make the arrangements." Lockhart nodded: "As long as it's reasonable, don't let the principal see the problem."

"Lockhart, I suggest you pay attention. When Albus and I were chatting before, he mentioned your Squib Meditation Class." Snape reminded: "He may already have some doubts about you. ."

In response to Snape's reminder, Lockhart was silent for a moment and sighed softly.

As expected of the White Devil who suppressed two Dark Lords, his intuition is very sharp.

Then he didn't say much, just exchanged a few words and left.

Snape watched as the light disappeared and Lockhart left.

Immediately afterwards, his eyes once again glanced at the strange African food on the table, especially the huge roasted snail, and the corner of his mouth twitched again.

Wave the wand and the food disappears again.

Out of sight out of mind.

Rest first, eat some normal food when return to the UK, and never come to Africa again.

The next day, Hogsmeade, Ian's meditation cabin.

Ian held a newspaper in his hand, lowering his head and reading silently. However, his excitement could be seen from the action of tightly grasping the corners of the newspaper.

Opposite him, stood a group of angry squibs, their faces filled with uncontrollable anger.

"Teacher Ian, the pure-blood family has gone too far. They not only slandered Professor Lockhart as a dark wizard, but also claim that professor Lockhart cast the Unforgivable Curse."

"It was also through the mouth of this man named Rupert Mulciber that he proposed that meditation is for of the pure-blood family."

"Yes, that's too much. Although the newspaper didn't write it explicitly, that's what it meant - they didn't want us to practice meditation."

"Hood is right. The newspaper also said that the meditation method we practice is a simplified version of this Rupert method, and there are unknown dangers. It is recommended that we suspend our practice."

"Bah, wouldn't it be enough to just ban us from practicing meditation? And they still come up with such a shameless excuse."

"I think these pure-blooded beasts just don't want us to become wizards."

"."

Hearing everyone's cries of indignation, Ian put down the newspaper in his hand and said with a frosty face: "Don't worry, everyone, we will never let the pure-blood family's conspiracy succeed."

"I wrote to Professor Lockhart yesterday, and I believe I will get a reply soon."

"As for the dangers of meditation, I am now a wizard, able to cast spells and possess magical power."

"I even know several companions, including some of your classmates, who have also become wizards from squibs. What harm can it do?"

"'ridiculous'!"

Ian scolded the last 'ridiculous' sentence directly, as if he was furious at the behavior of the pure-blood family.

Ian's scolding ignited everyone's emotions and caused everyone to curse.

At this moment, suddenly.

With a click, the door suddenly opened, and a figure ran directly in and shouted loudly.

"It's not good, it's not good, Adel, Yasha, they were taken away by the wizard."

"Edmund, what happened to Yasha and Adel? Speak slowly." Ian asked calmly.

Edmund, a preparatory wizard who had successfully practiced meditation, heard Ian's words and took a few deep breaths, as if to calm himself down.

But he still looked a little anxious and said: "Teacher Ian, haven't Adel and the others succeeded in practicing meditation? I was going to see Adel and the others today to share their experience in practicing meditation. but their parents said that Adel and the others were having mental problems and asked someone to take them to St. Mungo's Hospital for examination. You know, their parents have always been disgusted with Squibs like Adel, and they are usually not willing to give them even half a care. When problems arise, how can they take them to see a doctor? Even a test will cost gold Galleons. It is definitely another conspiracy of the pure-blood family. In order to prevent us from practicing meditation, the pure-blood family is going to attack us."

"Teacher Ian, what should we do!"

Hearing this, all the Squibs present became furious and furious.

all shouted

"Damn it, we can't take it any longer."

"Shameless, bastard pureblood!"

"Pure-blood wizards have already attacked us. Fight back. We must fight back."

"."

Ian looked gloomy and said in a deep voice to all the squibs.

"Let's go to St. Mungo's Hospital to rescue Adel and Yasha."

"Rescue our companions!!!"
