The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 10 My Family Is Professional
Gabriel Truman also has no good solution. He can only accept Albert's proposal. Being expelled from Hogwarts is a result that he cannot accept anyway.

After writing the letter, Truman looked at the flying owl, looked at Albert and asked, "Is this really all right?"

"The school is probably also taken aback. I don't think they will dismiss a student at will. At least they will figure out what's going on." Albert comforted, the freckled boy calmed down. , it should be said that he was infected by Albert's calmness.

"Can you lend me that letter?" Albert asked.

"Oh, here, what a disaster." Truman smiled bitterly. "I was warned once by the Ministry of Magic for using magic in front of my family during the summer vacation of my first year."

He handed the letter to Albert, explaining, "Hogwarts students are not allowed to use magic outside of school."

"But why was Albert not warned after using magic?" Nia was puzzled.

"It's very likely that he hasn't gone to school yet." In fact, Truman didn't quite know.

"Probably some loophole." Albert began to read the parchment:
Dear Mr. Truman: We have received information that you were in a Muggle settlement at [-]:[-] noon and cast a Levitation Charm in the presence of a Muggle.

Seeing this, Albert's emotions were a bit complicated. He knew who the Muggle was referring to, took a deep breath, sorted out the complicated emotions, and continued to read.

This behavior seriously violates the "Act on Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards". Since you have previously been formally warned for violating Article No.13 of the "International Confederation of Magicians' Secrecy Act", we regret to inform you that you Must go to the Ministry of Magic for trial at 8 am on August 17.

If convicted, you will be expelled from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and the Ministry of Magic will destroy your wand.

Hope you take care.

Your faithful Mafalda Hopekirk Ministry of Magic forbids the misuse of the Division of Magic.

"I suggest that after this matter is resolved, apply to the Ministry of Magic for spiritual compensation." Albert's family are all lawyers, and he still learned a bit about how to exploit legal loopholes.

Truman was a little stunned, and he didn't even understand what was going on. The other party actually said that he should apply for spiritual compensation from the Ministry of Magic?

"I dare say that the Ministry of Magic must have a way to monitor your surroundings, but they don't know who used the magic." Albert continued, "I only came here for the summer vacation with my sister a few days ago, because You just happened to bump into us, so the Ministry of Magic thinks you used the Levitate Charm and is going to fire you. In fact, it was their gross mistake, and the letter surprised you a lot, didn't you? It just nearly got out of control, and it's definitely going to pay for the mental damage."

"Yes, it is completely reasonable to ask for a mental damage fee." Nia echoed.

"My family are all lawyers, so I know these things better than you." Albert continued to instigate, "Someone will come over later, at least someone will write a letter, anyway, clear your business first. Then, Complain about the mistakes of the Ministry of Magic and ask them to pay you 100 Galleons for your fright."

"Will it be too much." Truman was startled by Albert's lion opening.

"This will make it easier to explain." Albert said without hesitation, "At least, 50 Galleons is not too much. If it is lower than this number, don't want it, lest they think that children are fooled, and adults are like this, they think children are easy to pass. "

"If the Ministry of Magic doesn't give you the money, I can write you a letter and have the Daily Prophet dig this out anonymously, and I'm sure they'll be willing to pay you 50 Galleons. You'll get the money, though. You need to share half of it with me as the cost of writing letters for you." Albert's remarks made Truman feel that this child is too cute... too powerful.

……

Hogwarts, Headmaster's Office, Dumbledore has just been notified by the Ministry of Magic that Gabriel Truman needs to be tried at the Ministry of Magic for using the Levitation Charm in front of Muggles. Once the Ministry of Magic's charges are established, Truman will will be expelled from school.

This is not good news, Truman has a criminal record and was warned by the Ministry of Magic for using magic in front of his family during the summer of his first year.

Just as Dumbledore was about to go to the Ministry of Magic to confirm the situation, a letter from Owl surprised him.

The letter described that Truman had nothing to do with this matter, he just met a freshman who was about to enter the school in the park and was practicing the floating spell, and the Muggle was referring to the other party's sister.

It's not like a lie, because there is another letter in the letter, and his owner is Albert Anderson.

In the letter, Albert expressed his regret for the unwarranted disaster he brought to Truman, and said that he could testify for him if necessary.

Dumbledore found the name in his memory. It was indeed a freshman in the first year, from a Muggle family.

Dumbledore couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he thought this was probably the case.Expelling a student is definitely not something he, the principal, would like to see.

Dumbledore immediately went to the Ministry of Magic, and talked about the letter and the matter to the person who prohibited the abuse of magic. The matter was not serious enough to need a trial. If it was just an accident, the Ministry of Magic might become a laughing stock.

After all, both Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic knew there was a loophole in the trace.

The fact was similar to what Albert had guessed. Someone from the Ministry of Magic came. He also saw Dumbledore. The old man smiled and looked at the two children talking in the park.

"It seems that this should be a misunderstanding." Dumbledore said to the Ministry of Magic staff next to him with a smile.

"I think you should be Headmaster Dumbledore." Albert looked at Dumbledore, reached out and shook hands with him and said, "You are the same as the picture of the Chocolate Frog."

"Mr. Albert?" Dumbledore looked at Albert and said with a smile, "We received your letter, child, can you give me the wand?"

"Oh, of course no problem." Albert knew what Dumbledore wanted to do, so he gave him the wand anyway.

Sure enough, the headmaster used a flashback spell to detect the magic that the wand owner had used in recent days.

Dumbledore looked at Albert in amazement. This child actually mastered five magics in just a few days.

"Truman just corrected my levitation spell, which I just mastered," Albert explained.

"Where's your wand?" The wizard from the Ministry of Magic looked at Truman.

"I didn't bring it with me. I kept it at home. If you need to check it, you can go back and get it with me." Truman was very righteous, and he was not afraid of checking anyway.

"It seems that this was a misunderstanding, Nutley." Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Yes, I think so too." Nutley nodded. "I think I need to write a new report."

　The Ministry of Magic has no right to expel a student from Hogwarts nor to confiscate a wand unless the charges are convicted.

　　This is my negligence. I should go to the Ministry of Magic's Prohibition of Misuse of Magic Division to be tried first, and then I will be expelled from the school and destroyed the wand if the charges are established.
