Chapter 589 Warning Letter From the Ministry of Magic

Looking at the owl that suddenly appeared in front of him and the letter on the owl's paw, Kyle didn't care too much.

I have been receiving all kinds of letters recently, and it would be strange if I didn't receive any one day.

But it was worth running back to Mr. Weasley on his way to work...could it be the meeting held by Dumbledore that MacPhail mentioned?

Kyle took the envelope, pulled out the letter inside, and read it curiously.

Then his expression changed.

This letter was not from Dumbledore, but from the Ministry of Magic, and the content was so outrageous that Kyle even thought he had read it wrong.

Either that or someone at the Ministry of Magic is crazy.

"What's this."

Seeing that Kyle remained silent, Fred and George came over curiously, looked at the letter and read.

"We have been informed that you cast a spell in the Leaky Cauldron at 10:36 this morning.

This behavior violates the Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards Act. Please go to the Ministry of Magic on the morning of August 12th to explain the situation, otherwise we have the right to expel you.

Mafalda…”

"No, did I see it wrong?"

Fred couldn't help shouting: "Or am I wrong? You will be warned for using magic spells in the Leaky Cauldron?"

"Are they crazy?" George couldn't accept it. "Or is there a Muggle hiding in the Leaky Cauldron?"

They remember clearly that although the so-called "Restraint Law" does not allow underage wizards to use magic outside of school, there is a prerequisite, and that is that there are Muggles around when using magic.

If this condition is not met, basically no one will take care of it, let alone in the Leaky Cauldron.

The people who can appear there are basically wizards. Even if there are Muggles, they are also parents of students. Everyone knows that wizards exist, so why does it violate the "Restraint Act".

"Watch your words, George." Percy stood up and pretended to adjust his collar.

"No matter what, underage wizards are not allowed to use magic outside of school. This is a rule, it doesn't matter where they are."

"Percy... how about you move your room to the garden? I feel like you and the goblin will get along very well."

George glared at him dissatisfied, "Next to the Leaky Cauldron is Diagon Alley. With so many wizards gathering together, why should the Ministry of Magic say that Kyle used the magic instead of someone else?"

"That's because...the Ministry of Magic must have its own way." Percy hesitated, "In short, Minister Fudge will definitely not make a mistake. Since Kyle has done something wrong, he must accept punishment..."

"Shut up, you big-headed boy!" Fred said angrily: "Do you dare to say that you didn't use magic at home?"

"I don't……"

Before Percy could finish his words, George let out a scoff.

"I remember that you used the flying spell to find the glasses we had hidden."

"Secure the envelope with a sticking spell so we can't see it."

"And the repair spell..."

"Illuminating spell..."

"Expelling Curse..."

Various names popped out of Fred and George's mouths one after another, and occasionally Ron and Ginny would fill in the blanks.

And every time they said something, Percy's face would become uglier, and in the end he could only close his mouth and return to the room without saying a word.

"The annoying guy is finally gone," Fred said. "Ever since he got promoted, he's become more and more annoying."

Then he looked at Mr. Weasley and said, "Dad, what on earth is going on."

"Yeah," George said, "Why would Kyle get a warning for using magic in the Leaky Cauldron?"

"I don't know." Mr. Weasley shook his head. "This is what Mafalda told me. She said that someone insisted that Kyle used magic outside of school and asked her to send a warning letter."

"who is it."

"She didn't say."

Mr. Weasley tapped his fingers on the table and hesitated for a moment before continuing: "There is one more thing."

"What?"

"Kyle is not the only one going to the Ministry of Magic this time, there is also Harry."

"Harry? He's using magic in Diagon Alley too?"

"It's not Diagon Alley, it's Little Whinging." Mr. Weasley said, "And he used magic in front of three Muggles."

Ron and Ginny stood up at the same time.

"No, I'm going to ask him." Ron said anxiously, then turned around and ran upstairs.

"What's more troublesome is." Mr. Weasley sighed, "This is not the first time Harry has used magic in front of Muggles, so Kyle just went to ask, but he has to be judged."

"Trial?" Ginny's face turned pale, "Harry, will he be expelled?"

"No, they won't!" Mr. Weasley shook his head firmly, "They can't fire Harry, and Dumbledore won't agree to it."

"Sorry, kids, I might have to leave for a while, oh, and Kyle..."

Mr. Weasley's tone softened a little, "Don't worry, as I said, they can't tell if it's you or someone else in Diagon Alley who's using the spell, so you'll be fine, just go ahead and leave." Just a cutscene."

With that, Mr. Weasley left the Burrow in a storm.

Soon Ginny also returned to the room, and only Kyle, Fred and George were left in the living room.

"You...really used a magic spell?" Fred asked tentatively,

Kyle nodded.

He admitted that in order to prevent someone from eavesdropping when Rita Skeeter broke the news, he did use an earplug listening spell, but the question is, how did the Ministry know about it.

Did someone see it?

But even if they saw it, there is no need to make such a fuss. When did the people in the Ministry of Magic become so dedicated?

Kyle felt that there was definitely something wrong here.

Did Rita Skeeter tell on him?

"No, it shouldn't be." Kyle immediately denied this idea.

It's not that he believes in Rita Skeeter's character, but that she doesn't dare. Whether it's the identity of Animagus or Fudge's secret, it can't be cleared up with just a few words.

Even for herself, Rita Skeeter would not tell on him.

Could it be because Voldemort... Fudge knew that he was on Dumbledore's side?

This is a bit possible. He wrote a lot of letters during the holidays and never hid them. It's normal for Fudge to know.

But Fudge came to trouble him just for talking. Isn't it a bit stingy?

Kyle threw the letter aside.

"It's okay, Kyle." Fred comforted him, "There are many wizards in Diagon Alley. As long as you don't admit it, they definitely don't know that you have used magic."

"Yeah." George also echoed, "And the Leaky Cauldron is full of wizards. Even if they use magic, it will not violate the Statute of Restraint. They can't do anything to you."

"Yeah, I know." Kyle nodded.

Although he said so, he was indeed disgusted by this method, including the situation on Harry's side, which is probably related to the Ministry of Magic.

Just now, Mr. Weasley said that he used magic in front of three Muggles, probably the Dursleys.

They should have investigated and knew that the Dursleys hated Harry. Not only would they not testify for him, they might even put the blame on Harry.

Even if Harry protected them.

"Really... the Forbidden Forest is so big that there are all kinds of birds." Kyle muttered in a low voice.
