Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 907: Dumbledore visits

Just after Christmas, I opened a bunch of Christmas presents and attended a Christmas ball, but Dumbledore was not in a good mood.

Because Barty Crouch was sick the other day and didn't come to the Christmas ball.

To be honest, it's not a big deal, it's normal to get sick, not to mention the old Barty, who has worked hard for the World Cup for a whole year, he wants to spend a quiet Christmas understandably, but...

If you associate this with Albert's prophecy, this is undoubtedly a bad omen.

A few months ago, Sirius had approached Dumbledore and mentioned that Peter was still alive. Through memory, he saw that the man who appeared in the prophecy ball was Barty Crouch Jr., Dumbledore Lido recognized him the first time he saw him.

Is Barty Crouch Jr alive?

But, why are you still alive?

Since then, Dumbledore has been quietly investigating the matter, with Barty Crouch Sr. being the breaking point of the whole thing, but Dumbledore can't do anything about a high-ranking official at the Ministry of Magic .

Just because Dumbledore doesn't go into politics doesn't mean he doesn't know anything about it. He knows better than anyone that some things cannot be done too much.

For example, forcing old Barty Crouch to open his mouth to tell a secret, otherwise even if you get the answer, even if the whole thing is related to Barty Crouch, it is still a big trouble.

However, fortunately, some time ago, old Barty fired his loyal house elf for some reason, and the house elf named Wink was serving at Hogwarts at the moment. Although a large dose of powerful Veritaserum could be used to ask some secrets, Dumbledore did not do that, because it would be too cruel and could result in the death or permanent damage of the house elf.

The loyalty of house-elves allows them to keep secrets for their masters, even for house-elves who have been kicked out of the house by their masters, their loyalty remains unquestionable.

But Dumbledore doesn't need that much trouble to get some information, or even an accurate answer.

He took Wink to the headmaster's office, told the house-elf that Barty Crouch was sick, and made some speculation of his own, expressing his suspicion that Barty was under the Imperius Curse, Asked some information about Barty Jr.

Although Dumbledore's remarks did not cause the house elf named Winky to tell him the truth, Dumbledore didn't really need to get the answer from the house elf, he only needed to get the answer from the other party's Reaction, you can deduce the truth of the whole thing.

There is no doubt that Albert's prediction is correct. Barty is still alive. The whole thing has something to do with Barty. Perhaps, Barty used some secret methods to keep Barty alive. down. As for who died in Azkaban Prison, it is self-evident.

Because not long ago, Dumbledore guessed the specific reason after hearing from Sirius that Peter Pettigrew was still alive.

It's a pity that the two great mothers used their own lives to save their son's life, but in the end they failed to save their son's conscience and guide them to the right path.

After finding out the truth, Dumbledore wanted to find Albert at the first time, and he needed to get some verification from the other party.

Albert seems to know something.

In other words, the other party may know more than himself.

Dumbledore was able to realize that the whole thing was not right, or from the conversation between Albert and Percy at the ball.

The other party seems to be intentionally implying that Crouch is dying.

Yes, he meant Crouch was dying, and Percy became the Minister of Magic's assistant.

Albert is a genius who is good at prophecy. Even if he doesn't know it, Dumbledore believes that after a brief exchange between the two sides, he can get a lot of useful information.

What's more, Dumbledore was sure that Albert knew that he was too smart.

However, Dumbledore found that their champion was missing, and even if he used tracking magic, he couldn't track Albert's location.

It seemed to disappear out of thin air.

Where did Albert go?

Dumbledore didn't know, but someone must know, so... he asked Albert's roommate and friend.

Well, not even his roommates know about it.

"Probably going home."

"Perhaps, I went to spend the Christmas vacation with my girlfriend."

These are two speculations from Fred, George and Lee Jordan.

However, the Anderson family is not in their original home. At least, Dumbledore personally went there, and the home was unoccupied at all, at least for several months.

Their family moved?

It doesn't seem strange to think about it.

After all, it is a person who can predict the future, especially the kind of powerful prophecy master. If he really does not want you to find it, it is really difficult to find.

Nicole LeMay is a ready-made example. When Voldemort peeped at the Philosopher's Stone a few years ago, he immediately noticed something was wrong, and contacted himself in advance to let him use the Faithful Charm to protect the residence.

Dumbledore, who was unable to find Albert, found himself somewhat unfavorable.

According to the original plan, he was going to visit the old Batty with Ludo Bagman, by the way, to talk about the safety measures of the second project, but Ludo Bagman seems to be in trouble.

When Dumbledore came to visit at the agreed time, Ludo Bagman had already been sent to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries. chocolate.

The most embarrassing thing is that after Bagman was intoxicated, the person in his mind was actually a girl named Hogwarts, and the woman who wrote him was obviously fake, or in other words, the letter It's fake from beginning to end, what's going on?

Dumbledore quickly guessed the answer, because the next day Hogwarts showed up in a large area of ​​students who had been intoxicated, causing a lot of commotion.

It is said that after breakfast, Fred, George and Lee Jordan brought out a pile of snacks and desserts to share with everyone. It's not the first time they've done this. Sometimes people give Albert a bunch of snacks and desserts that can't be eaten, and they're worried that it will be broken and wasted, so they will share them with everyone.

For example, the last time I won the International Wizarding Chess Championship and the Magic School Potions Championship. Anyway, every time Albert became famous after winning the championship, he always received a bunch of gifts, which also contained a large number of desserts and snacks. This will let the Weasley twins and Lee Jordan come out and share with everyone.

As for the reason, Dumbledore had already heard about Ludo Bagman's debt.

"Bagman fooled us with fake gold coins during the World Cup and didn't even want to give us back the principal, so we just wanted to play a joke on him and let him work for nothing without getting one. Galleons," George said to Dumbledore.

They no doubt knew that 80% of those desserts were laced with erotica.

It's just, they won't admit it, just say it's a small prank.

Naturally, Dumbledore didn't intend to punish them. After all, no matter who they were, they would be extremely annoyed with the sum of Galleons they saved after being hacked. A small prank showed that they had already restrained themselves.

As for the incident of the fascination agent in the group, it was purely an accident.

After all, they "don't know" anything, this is just a custom to share desserts with everyone, and there is no malicious intent.

But this undoubtedly interrupted Dumbledore's original plans and delayed his visit to Barty.

As for, he goes by himself?

No, you can't do that, it's easy to get into trouble. Better to find a serious reason to convince the Ministry of Magic that this was just an accident.

Otherwise, no one knows what will happen when they go.

In case Crouch dies, he will be passive.

The Ministry of Magic will not admit that Voldemort is alive, but will blame it on him, or other dark wizards.

As for the Ministry of Magic, the Aurors?

This is never a good idea.

To be honest, Dumbledore, with the exception of a few trusted friends, didn't really like to trust the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic, especially Connelly Fudge, the Minister of Magic.

The other party is now more and more obsessed with his status and power, becoming more and more "degenerate", and moving closer to pure blood wizards.

He is unreliable, very unreliable.

To Dumbledore, the British Ministry of Magic was never a help, but a hindrance, a trouble.

There are too many pure-blood wizards who hate Dumbledore and like to hold him back, and most of these people are Death Eaters who escaped the disaster. They used some loopholes to escape the punishment of the law, even if Even Dumbledore can't do anything about it, he can't overthrow the existing system of the Ministry of Magic.

Therefore, it is the best way to find old Barty with Ludo Bagman, and the reason Dumbledore has already thought about it.

The second project is far more dangerous than the first, because the warrior needs to enter the Black Lake to save the hostages, out of his sight, even Dumbledore has no good way. Therefore, the safety of the warriors can only be troubled by the murlocs under the Black Lake to take care of them. Even if the murlocs are willing to help take care of the warriors, there may still be major problems, such as the warriors being attacked under the Black Lake, or accidentally drowning.

They need a safe and reliable solution to ensure that the warriors can be rescued as soon as possible after encountering danger.

As for the plan, Dumbledore has already thought about it.

Dumbledore looked at the plan at hand, and then looked at the pocket watch on the table. In another hour, it would be the time agreed with Bagman.

Before leaving school, he had to make some arrangements.

At this moment, Dumbledore is waiting for someone in his office.

The other party didn't ask him to wait too long before someone knocked on the door of the principal's office, and Snape walked in with a gloomy face.

No way, the Love Agent incident actually saved the Gryffindor quartet, and the four nasty guys brought back some unpleasant memories of Snape.

What annoyed Snape even more was that Dumbledore had already defined this incident as an accident, and had directly and lightly exposed it.

Even though Snape could tell at a glance that the three of them were lying, and he even decided that the culprit was Albert Anderson, but...he couldn't send those four **** to solitary confinement.

"I'll be leaving school before eight, I need you to see Moody, just don't let him out of your sight," Dumbledore said to Snape.

"What happened." Snape immediately sensed something was wrong.

"I may have found some clues," said Dumbledore vaguely.

"Clue?" Snape reached out and grabbed his arm, muttering, "It has something to do with who?"

There are not many things that Dumbledore pays attention to, and Voldemort is definitely one of them.

Dumbledore didn't answer, but continued, "I suspect someone has sneaked into the school, and I need you to help me keep an eye on the professors in the school."

"Including Moody?" Snape asked curiously.

"Of course, I'll also let Moody watch over you, you can find any reason." Dumbledore said, looking at Snape.

"What's the point of doing that?" Snape asked, frowning.

"Yes," said Dumbledore. "Two hours after I left, if there were Voldemort's minions in the school, they would have sensed something was wrong and tipped off Voldemort to find him."

"Who do you suspect, Moody?"

"Not yet."

"Okay, since you said so." Snape agreed, though hesitant.

About half an hour after Snape left, Moody raised his hand and knocked on the office door.

"Albus, what's the matter with me?"

"I'm leaving school to deal with a business later," Dumbledore said straight to the point.

"It seems that this matter is very important, I will go back and prepare."

"No, I need you to stay at school and help me take care of Hogwarts," Dumbledore said. "I've always suspected Voldemort's helpers at school, and I need you to make sure I leave school two days after I leave school. For hours, no professors left the message.

"You really don't need help?" Moody repeated.

"No."

"Okay." Moody nodded and asked again, "Do you have a target of suspicion?"

"No." Dumbledore shook his head.

"There is really no professor in the school who has symptoms of the Imperius Curse. Although a more powerful Imperius Curse cannot be ruled out, it is impossible for a long time to be without symptoms." Moody's analysis ~IndoMTL.com~ in the exclusion of After that, there were only two remaining criminals, and Karkaroff had escaped some time ago. "

"I'm sure Snape would not betray me, and he didn't have to," Dumbledore said, looking at Moody.

"There are a lot of cunning people in Slytherin, and even you may be deceived." Moody sneered, "Albus, you are too soft-hearted and like to give others a chance. I overheard them say The Dark Mark reacted, and God knows if the guy is ready to go back to his master."

Dumbledore said calmly, "If possible, take this opportunity to find the guy who was hiding."

There is no doubt that this is a conspiracy against him, but... what is the point of a known conspiracy?

However, Barty Jr. soon realized the seriousness of the problem.

I may be being targeted.

Also, Dumbledore might actually find the Dark Lord's trail, just to prevent anyone from tipping off, or finding out who he was hiding at Hogwarts.

Of course, it may also be purely a conspiracy, just trying to seduce and capture yourself.

What should I do now?

After a moment of contemplation, Barty Jr. finally gave up on tipping off Voldemort, who could not be exposed yet.

With Crouch's magical defenses, even if he does get into trouble, the master will definitely have a way to escape on his own.
