Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 908: When Dumbledore blocked the door

After arranging the follow-up matters, Dumbledore quietly left Hogwarts Castle under the cover of night. Do Bagman walked to the agreed place.

"Good evening Dumbledore, you are always on time as always."

When Dumbledore walked to the door of the Three Broomsticks, he heard a familiar voice in his ears. Ludo Bagman came out of the Three Broomsticks and talked to Dumbledore with a depressed face. Lido said hello.

Dumbledore glanced at the group of goblins behind Bagman, raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that you have had a rough time in the past two days."

"The two reports by Rita Kist almost turned me into a laughing stock in the wizarding world." Bagman shrugged helplessly, "I really don't know who sent me that stuff, I suspect this is a good thing done by a Hogwarts student."

"I think it was probably just a prank," said Dumbledore gently.

"Prank?"

Bagman seemed to have thought of something, and the anger that had been accumulated suddenly faded away, and he stretched out his hand to cover his cheek and complained: "It really hurt me."

"Okay, let's go to Batty first. He seems to be sick recently. I didn't want to disturb his rest, but there are some things that can't be solved. You know, the second project It is far more dangerous than the first project, we must ensure the safety of the warriors as much as possible, if there is another accident, the Triwizard Tournament will probably be suspended forever."

Actually, if you want to modify some plans of the Triwizard Tournament, you must discuss it with the Ministry of Magic in advance, and this matter is one of Barty Crouch's jobs, so you need to inform the other party anyway.

"Let's go, let's go to Batty, I hope his condition is better, that guy hasn't been to the Ministry of Magic for several days." Ludo Bagman muttered. He didn't notice Dumbledore's gradually serious expression next to him.

The two Apparate together and disappear.

With a burst of explosions, they reappeared on a remote path, and walked together towards the big house not far away.

Bagman reached out and rang the doorbell, but after a long time, no one came to open the door.

"Barty isn't asleep, is he?" Bagman looked sideways at Dumbledore, seeking his opinion.

On the other side of the door, Peter Pettigrew covered his mouth with both hands in panic, for fear of making a little noise and being heard by the people outside the door.

Peter never expected that Dumbledore would suddenly appear outside the door.

"What now?"

Peter looked anxiously at the baby sitting in the armchair, hoping that the baby would have a good way to get rid of Dumbledore.

Voldemort didn't pay attention to the panic-stricken Peter, his eyes fell on the demon mirror placed next to the hall, on which Dumbledore's clear figure was reflected.

Neither Peter Pettigrew nor Voldemort expected that they would be blocked by Dumbledore one day.

Since Old Batty's will to resist the Imperius Curse has become stronger and stronger, and his body has become weak due to the resistance to the Imperius Curse, they have begun to reduce the number of appearances of Old Batty, claiming that Old Batty is sick He even handed over a lot of the work to his assistant Percy Weasley.

Thanks to this serious assistant, Batty's abnormality was not noticed by others.

However, what they didn't expect was that Dumbledore was attracted to him because he didn't go to the Christmas ball.

"Master, what should we do, are we going to escape?" Peter asked silently with his lips parted.

Voldemort ignored the panicked Pettigrew Peter, looked away from the magic mirror, picked up the wand beside him and pointed at Old Barty, changed the other into a nightgown silently, and then controlled him with the Imperius Curse. He went to open the door and dismissed Dumbledore and Bagman.

Seeing Voldemort's actions, Peter couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Voldemort would have a head-on confrontation with Dumbledore.

This is not a good idea. Although Voldemort has regained some strength, how can he be so weak as Dumbledore's opponent.

As for Peter Pettigrew himself, he is even less likely to be Dumbledore's opponent. To be able to escape the catastrophe at that time is already considered a great fortune.

"It's you guys, what's the matter?"

Old Barty opened the door, but did not intend to let the two of them enter the house, "Sorry, I have been very ill recently, I am afraid I cannot entertain you."

"Barty, are you alright, your complexion looks terrible." Bagman looked at the haggard and lifeless Barty Crouch in surprise. I don't know why, but when I found out that my colleagues were having a worse life than me recently, my depressed mood actually improved.

"Ludo is right, Batty, your complexion looks terrible, I think you'd better take the time to go to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries."

Dumbledore looked past Batty and glanced at the gloomy corridor, always feeling that there was an aura that made him uncomfortable.

"No, I know my situation very well. I can take care of myself. Do you have anything else to do with me?"

"About the safety plan for the second project." Bagman said casually, "However, depending on the situation, we still don't want to disturb you. You should take a leave of absence and take a good rest for a while."

"Wetherby is very capable, and most of my work is temporarily entrusted to him." Old Batty paused, and said after a long time, "You can discuss with him first, and I will take a look at it when the time comes." Wetherby's report."

"Looks like we should go!" Bagman knew that they came in vain, "You'd better have a good rest, don't be too tired, if you really can't do it, go to St. Don't drag yourself, it's not good."

"Are you sure you don't need help?" Dumbledore asked suddenly.

"No, I can take care of myself." Batty said wearily.

The two looked at each other, bid farewell to Batty and left.

"Since Buddy drove the house elves away, his quality of life has declined badly. If I were him, I would definitely not do that. However, you also know Buddy's temper. Fortunately, he is sick now. There is no one to take care of him." Bagman sighed endlessly, he felt that Batty's current fate was more or less self-inflicted.

"What's wrong with you, Dumbledore?" Bagman accidentally noticed Dumbledore's frown slightly, and couldn't help asking.

"Barty's situation is very wrong, like..." Before Dumbledore finished speaking, Bagman preempted him.

"It's like being seriously ill." Bagman shrugged, "He should go to St. Mungo's Magic Injury Hospital instead of staying at home like he is now."

"No, with Batty's personality, he will never leave important matters to his assistants." Dumbledore said softly, "He will quickly heal his illness and then go back to his busy work , this is his habit."

"You're right, Batty is indeed a workaholic. It's hard to imagine that he would not treat his illness, but hand over the important work at hand to his assistant?" Listening to what Dumbledore said, Bagman also felt something was wrong, "What do you think of Batty's situation now?"

"I'm a little worried about whether Batty will be hit by someone else's Imperius Curse. His current appearance doesn't look like he is seriously ill, but rather seems to be weak after resisting the Imperius Curse."

"Barty got the Imperius Curse, are you kidding me?" The expression on Bagman's face froze instantly.

"Hush!"

Dumbledore motioned Bagman to keep quiet. He turned his head and glanced at the Crouch house, pulled out his wand, and said softly, "Even if Batty didn't hit the Imperius Curse, I'm afraid he needs to be treated. The doctor's treatment, and if such a disease is left unattended, I am afraid it will be very bad."

"What are you going to do?" Bagman didn't dare to breathe. He had never seen such a serious expression on Dumbledore's face, and it was probably true.

"Let's turn back and subdue Batty first to ensure his safety. I suspect that a dark wizard is hiding in his house. That house gives me a bad feeling." Dumbledore quickly made arrangements.

"What should I do?"

Bagman also took out his wand and looked at Crouch's house vigilantly, as if it had become a dark wizard's lair.

"You ring the doorbell later, and ask him if he wants me to send a famous elf from Hogwarts to take care of his daily life temporarily."

"Then, use a spell to immobilize Batty, and force him to be taken to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries." Dumbledore said calmly, "I'll take care of the rest. If it's a misunderstanding this time, I will Will personally apologize to Batty."

"No, you don't have to apologize. You are saving Barty's life. I feel that his physical condition is very bad. He should really go to St. Mungo's Magic Injury Hospital for treatment instead of staying at home with no one. Take care, I might die inexplicably one day." Bagman agreed with Dumbledore's approach, no matter whether Batty was controlled by the Imperius Curse or not, his current physical condition is indeed very bad, and he should go to St. Mungo's magic Injured patients receive treatment in hospital instead of staying at home to die.

…

"Master, they have already left."

In the hall, Peter Pettigrew couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Crouch who had collapsed on the sofa, and said to Voldemort who was in the armchair, "Master, we'd better change the place. Bullido's attention, he will come back sooner or later."

Voldemort frowned slightly as he looked at the increasingly clear figure in the demon mirror. For some reason, he suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Kill Barty, and we leave here immediately." Voldemort made a decisive decision, and he was sure that Dumbledore might have seen some flaws. "

Peter Pettigrew was taken aback by Voldemort's words, and instinctively raised his wand, ready to follow Voldemort's order to kill Barty Crouch.

Just as he was about to use the Killing Curse, the doorbell rang again.

Peter Pettigrew swallowed, looked at Voldemort, and waited for his order.

If you use the Killing Curse now, Dumbledore outside the door will definitely notice it.

What now?

Peter Pettigrew suddenly lost his mind and stared blankly at Voldemort, waiting for further orders from the other party.

Baty has stood up from the sofa again and walked towards the door

"You..."

Before Batty could speak, he was immobilized by Bagman using a full-body binding spell.

"I'm sorry old man, this is all for your safety." Bagman didn't forget Dumbledore's advice, and prepared to run away with Barty.

A green light suddenly flew towards Batty.

It is impossible for Voldemort to allow them to take Batty away. He knows too many secrets and must die here.

A strong green light occupied Bagman's terrified eyes, seeing that the Killing Curse was about to engulf the two people at the door.

The wall suddenly protruded a lot, blocking the way of the Avada Kedavra, replacing Batty to withstand the power of the spell, and was directly blown to pieces.

"My God, Dumbledore, hurry up!"

Bagman took Batty out of the house, and at the most urgent moment, a green light blasted the suddenly closed wooden door into powder.

"Take Barty away."

Dumbledore directly opened a hole in the wall in front of him, and broke into Batty's house in a very unfriendly way.

"Dumbledore."

Peter Pettigrew screamed in horror when he saw Dumbledore.

"I think your mother must feel sorry for you, you shouldn't have done that." Dumbledore waved his wand to subdue Peter, but the magic that was originally flying towards Peter was stopped and hit the wall directly , A big hole was blown out.

"Take Nagini first," ordered Voldemort, who was sitting in the armchair.

Peter turned and ran without hesitation. As for Voldemort's snake, he couldn't care less.

However, Dumbledore didn't give Peter a chance. When Peter turned and ran away, a rope suddenly protruded from the ground and wrapped around Peter's ankle, tripping him to the ground.

Peter turned into a mouse and was about to escape, but a golden flame suddenly burned in the room and surrounded Peter and Voldemort.

Peter was stopped by the flames, but Voldemort's snake passed through the circle of flames and quickly moved away from the battlefield.

"This..."

Dumbledore's eyes suddenly burst into an astonishing light, and he already knew what it was.

Horcruxes!

The Horcrux in Albert's prophecy.

Voldemort actually turned a snake into a Horcrux, so it's true.

"Tom, I'm really surprised that you would kill the queen yourself. It's not like you would do it. Since when is a snake so important to you?" Dumbledore waved his wand and launched a fierce attack on Voldemort. Let go of such a good opportunity and not let that snake run away.

"What made you have such a ridiculous idea?"

Voldemort waved his wand to stop Dumbledore's attack, but the huge gap between the two sides made his baby's body overwhelmed, and his fragile body turned into a mass of fleshy paste.

Voldemort's remnant soul came out of that body, and it looked like it was made of smoke and had no substance.

After Dumbledore waved his wand to bring Peter down, he chased outside and soon found Nagini who was fighting Fox.

Dumbledore swung his wand to kill the snake, but found that the spell had no effect on the snake.

He quickly waved his wand, creating countless vines and shackles, directly binding the snake in place.

Voldemort, who just flew out of the house, saw that Dumbledore had got a sword from somewhere, and he raised the weapon high and chopped off Nagini's head.

"No, it's impossible!"

The expression on Voldemort's face, who originally wanted to mock Dumbledore, froze for a moment, and he screamed in pain. He couldn't understand why the weapon could kill Nagini. The Horcrux was protected by powerful black magic. , almost nothing could hurt them, but Nagini, who was supposed to be indestructible, was decapitated by a long sword, which was really difficult for Voldemort to understand.

"It seems, I guessed right Tom, that snake is very important to you." Dumbledore happily put away the Gryffindor sword, and said to Voldemort, "It was killed and given to Voldemort." You caused damage, and that snake seems to be your body?"

"Dumbledore, you can't kill me, and I will return anytime." Voldemort growled ferociously.

"It seems that you plan to hide in the Albanian forest and linger on." Dumbledore calmly looked at the impotent and furious Voldemort in front of him. He had seen Voldemort in such a situation before, and normal means could not kill him In this state of Voldemort, Dumbledore once looked for a way to kill him, but... the current Voldemort is not a ghost, and the method of dealing with ghosts has no effect on him.

Voldemort fled, and fled very quickly. When Dumbledore returned to Batty's house to find Peter Pettigrew, Peter had already run away.

Dumbledore extinguished the flame and walked outside. He planned to check on Crouch's situation. As long as he returned to normal, he should be able to find out who the spy hiding in Hogwarts was from him.

When Dumbledore found Bagman, he was with four goblins.

"It's Voldemort, I've already dealt with him. However, that guy is not dead, he has already escaped, so there is no need to worry about him for the time being." Dumbledore looked at Bagman, who had an ugly expression, and suddenly thought A bad premonition, "How is Batty's situation?"

"Barty is dead." Bagman's face was uglier than crying, "Peter Pettigrew did it. He suddenly appeared and attacked me. Fortunately, the goblins saved my life, but Peter still used Ava The Dassault Curse killed Barty."

Dumbledore's face suddenly darkened. Barty's death was obviously related to his negligence. He never thought that Peter would come to kill Barty.

Actually, Dumbledore didn't know that Peter Pettigrew had no choice but to kill Batty. If he didn't do that and Voldemort's resurrection plan failed completely, then he would not only be blacklisted by the Ministry of Magic, but would definitely be blacklisted by the Ministry of Magic. If you are on Voldemort's blacklist, you will surely die by then.

As for the death of the pet snake Nagini, Peter felt that it was not a big deal. After all, it was just Voldemort's pet. No matter how concerned Voldemort was, it was not as important as his resurrection. Nagini was rescued from his hands.

After all, that was Dumbledore, and even Voldemort himself might not be an opponent, let alone a small character like him.

Not long after, Fudge, who had just had dinner, rushed over with an Auror. Looking at the corpse of his former competitor, the Minister of Magic looked very ugly, because Fudge already knew that it was Pettigrew Peter who killed Batty. , As for why Peter, who should have died, came back to life, no matter how stupid Fudge is, he can guess the reason. Obviously, it was the ghost when Mrs. Peter went to visit the prison in Azkaban.

"It's Voldemort, Connelly." Dumbledore said calmly, "He has turned into a very ugly baby, but it is undeniable that he is still alive and has a physical body, although his body is quite fragile. , but... this is not good news.”

"The mysterious man is back? Stop joking, Dumbledore..." Fudge stared blankly at Dumbledore, as if he couldn't believe what he just heard. "It's not funny at all," he stammered.

"If Voldemort came back to life, did you kill him?" Scrimgeour asked, frowning. At this moment, all the Aurors looked at Dumbledore, expecting the answer they wanted to hear.

"After his body was destroyed by me, he fled again." Dumbledore said calmly.

"Escaping, you mean his soul drifted away?" Everyone felt quite absurd.

"To be honest, I didn't understand how he did it. That state is very strange. It's a bit like a ghost, but it's not a ghost. I tried to use a spell on him, but it didn't work. I think That's why Voldemort didn't die when the Avada Kedavra rebounded." Dumbledore said calmly, "However, I think he should be quite weak now."

"You mean Voldemort, who only has a soul left, may have a body at any time?" Fudge felt that the sky was about to collapse.

"It should have a physical body with the help of others. His body is actually very fragile and needs to be taken care of by others, but this is not a good sign. God knows if he can regain his previous strength. And Peter Pettigrew is still alive, I think You'd better catch that guy as soon as possible, so as not to make him cause other problems."

"Isn't Peter Pettigrew dead?" said Scrimgeour, frowning.

"You think I'm lying?" Bagman growled angrily. "I almost died, and the goblins saw it."

"No, you misunderstood me." Scrimgeour explained, "You probably don't know that some time ago someone confirmed this matter again and again. Peter Pettigrew was indeed dead, and his body was buried in the Azkaban~IndoMTL.com~ suddenly fell into a weird silence, what happened tonight is really weird, first Voldemort, and then Peter Pettigrew, who came back from the dead.

"I have to go back to Hogwarts first. You'd better search Barty's house. I'm a little worried about what kind of conspiracy Voldemort is planning." Dumbledore took out his pocket watch and looked at the time and said, "Yes Let's talk about it after ten o'clock. Ludo, I suggest you drink some tranquilizers and have a good night's rest. Barty's death was not your fault, he obviously knew that something was silenced."

After Dumbledore left, Fudge and Scrimgeour were silent. They looked at Bagman and asked, "Have you seen the mysterious man?"

"No, but I don't think Dumbledore has to lie to us." Bagman naturally understood what Fudge meant, but he didn't suspect that Dumbledore was lying.

"We'd better talk to Dumbledore, don't mention the mysterious man in the newspaper, it will cause panic in the society." Fudge felt that if the report was based on Dumbledore's statement, it might not be a matter of panic anymore. "Besides, no one witnessed this incident except Dumbledore. It is hard for people to believe his unbelievable statement. Whether that incident is true is still open to discussion, and everyone may not accept it." 12568/ 9792505
