[Ding, detecting a scene where the Holy Father System is in action near the host, a temporary task is now issued: Speak a bunch of lies in a stuttering tone, and after finishing, look at Fudge with a wry smile and an expression seeking his opinion.]
[Ding! After completing the quest, you have obtained Umbridge's Illusion. Would you like to accept the quest?]
Ah this...
The system thought the same way he did.
He originally intended to take all the most serious accusations and then pin them on Fudge.
Those students were able to see their parents beforehand, which clearly means Fudge was paid.
Since they've already taken the money, it's only natural to threaten this poor guy a little.
That's why he pretended to be scared off by Fudge at the entrance to the courtroom.
Look, they even found time for Fudge.
Unexpectedly, the system had the same idea as him.
I just don't know what kind of reward this is, Umbridge's illusion.
[Accept!]
Seeing that Fudge was already anxiously waiting for his reply, Darren quickly clicked to accept.
We can't keep the minister waiting!
He lowered his head, and then his face became even paler. He seemed to think for a long time before he remembered how to answer.
"I used... I used a large-scale apparition spell. I saw this spell in a book."
As long as you think about the destination, you can move people away... so I used this magic to get rid of them all..."
He stammered, and what came out was utterly ridiculous.
Because it was completely irrelevant, like an answer hastily cobbled together.
Fudge was stunned, because he didn't even dare to think about whether he should help Darren correct his mistake.
While he was silent, he didn't notice that Darren had already turned his gaze to him.
After realizing he was unresponsive, she turned deathly pale and her body began to tremble involuntarily.
It was as if she had remembered some terrifying consequences.
Is it...
Everyone looked at Fudge.
Did Fudge force the child to say that?
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the mission and receiving the reward: Umbridge's Illusion.]
Umbridge's illusion: Umbridge always treats you like one of his own.
The moment you looked at Fudge, Umbridge seemed to understand something.
In her eyes, whatever you do is at the minister's behest.
Of course, if you go too far, Umbridge might question your intelligence.
amount.
Ok!
It turns out it was just a misconception.
Moreover, if they do something outrageous, Umbridge might question their intelligence.
Darren made a sarcastic remark about the toad's intelligence, and then suddenly thought that if Umbridge were in fifth grade, she would actually come to Hogwarts like in the original story.
Perhaps... he might become Umbridge's most trusted person?
This is absolutely outrageous!
Of course, the court hearing is the most important thing right now.
Fudge had come to his senses.
His expression suggested he was questioning the meaning of life.
He had determined that Darren was indeed a victim, and not a Death Eater.
His previous plans have all been ruined.
But now he faces a problem: he has to get Darren to change what he said before.
If Darren confesses like this, and they publish those words in the Daily Prophet, he might completely disgrace the Ministry of Magic.
Then he was ousted from the position by his competitors.
In the name of his being a fool.
Depend on!
He felt extremely angry.
How could it have suddenly turned out like this?
He should have known better than to let Darren Porter come up to court for the trial; that Darren Porter is toxic!
The kindness he once thought would cause Dumbledore trouble has now completely become a death trap for him.
In an attempt to persuade Darren to change his mind, he forced a friendly smile and said, "The spell you mentioned won't let those Death Eaters go, so stop joking!"
"Minister, I'm not joking, those people were deliberately let go..."
"I am a sinner, arrest me!"
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +60]
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +70]
[Ding, Fatherhood Value +60]
[bite…]
Darren accepted the Father's Value and said painfully.
His self-abandonment was so pronounced that it was impossible to ignore his state of mind.
They then realized that Darren had just been through a war that was considered quite significant in the magical world.
Nine wizards died.
He himself was seriously injured, how could he not be sad?
The Auror tribe provides psychological counseling after each battle.
Darren is still a child!
His blaming of others' deaths on himself was a sign of his distress.
They shouldn't be interrogating him at this time.
But why didn't the six students next to Darren behave like that?
It was precisely because of the performance of those six students that they felt this incident wasn't a big deal.
Or rather, they felt that this matter would not have a significant impact on these children.
Who knew Darren wasn't like that at all?
Compared to those people, he was like this, and they all thought of a saying: Only kind people feel sad and guilty.
Fudge was also a little touched.
But after the initial感动 (moved/touched), there was a profound silence.
What should he do?
Darren Porter's kindness has flared up again; how will he explain this to the outside world?
Should we tell the public that because he didn't arrange for psychological counseling for the child, the child now has serious psychological problems?
Then this child wants to take all the blame himself?
If word gets out, Fudge will definitely be reprimanded by Dumbledore, who and the others have long been unhappy with him.
Fudge believed that Dumbledore would want to take him down whenever he had the chance, just like his feelings towards Dumbledore.

Chapter 200 Why don't you believe him?!
Fudge's face was covered in beads of sweat.
He wiped his face with a handkerchief and said uneasily, "Darren Porter, have you thought this through? If you admit to this crime, your reputation will be ruined."
"Everyone will know what you did and that you'll be associated with Death Eaters. Are you really willing to accept that?"
He said threateningly.
Darren didn't take his threats to heart at all.
He wanted Fudge to beg him to tell the truth.
