Big Boss In The Harry Potter World

Both Devis and Bans were at the store today. Solim was acquainted with the two of them and was able to borrow a room easily. Although this place is off-limits to ordinary customers, considering that Solim is a big customer, he still agreed to give Solim the use of the reception room in the store.

It is said to be a reception room, but half of it is actually used as a warehouse. Looking at the three chairs covered with dust and chipped paint, Solim was speechless.

Fortunately, these are not problems for the wizards. All they want now is a place where they will not be disturbed. None of the Solims touched the three chairs. Sirius directly conjured four chairs and sat down first.

"Sirius, what are you going to tell me?" Harry asked impatiently as soon as he sat down.

"That's it...last time I wasn't..."

"Wait a minute!" Solim shook his head, took out his wand and waved it over his head. "Since you think these things are inconvenient to discuss in public, how about you follow through on this idea? At least take some protective measures. Right? Is this what you usually do?"

Blake was too careless. Since he thought that what he was going to say was not suitable for others to hear, he did not take any protective measures. This kind of operation made Solim feel suffocated. He didn't think Black could even perform a simple anti-eavesdropping charm.

"Okay, let's talk." Solim put back his wand and sat down.

"Remember what I told you about Karkaroff last time?" Sirius asked.

"Of course, you said he turned out to be a Death Eater." Not only Sirius, Harry also learned a lot about Karkaroff from Dumbledore. What he saw in the Pensieve last time gave Harry a lot of thought. Big shock.

"Death Eaters have been active recently. Sirius revealed a piece of information that shocked Harry and Hermione.

"What did they do?"

"We suspect...Forget it, take a look at this, today's Daily Prophet." Sirius took out a newspaper and handed it to Harry.

"Barty Crouch?" Harry raised his head and looked at his godfather.

"Look down." Sirius pointed at the newspaper.

Harry quickly glanced at the article about Crouch. Some fragments of words caught his eye: He had not been seen since November... The home seemed uninhabited... St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Magical Maladies declined to comment... …The Ministry of Magic refused to confirm the rumors that he was terminally ill…

"November?" Hermione also read the newspaper with Harry. She noticed that the time mentioned in the newspaper was a bit unusual, "But he had appeared before the first event of the Triwizard Tournament."

November 24th is the start time of the first event. Although Crouch did not appear during the game, he had appeared at Hogwarts before. And it is said that Crouch did not appear during the game because he had to lead the Ministry of Magic personnel to deal with the murder of two Durmstrang warriors.

"It's not just Crouch, then look down." Sirius shook his head.

"Bertha Jorkins? The witch of the Sports Department? Disappeared while on vacation?" Hermione frowned, "Why do I think I've seen this name somewhere?"

"If you read the Daily Prophet during the summer vacation, you should have seen it from there." Sirius said, "Her disappearance was also reported by the Daily Prophet in the first place."

"Yes, that's it. She disappeared during the summer vacation and she hasn't been found yet?" Hermione suddenly realized that these things seemed to be connected.

"Yes, not even a hair was found." Sirius nodded, "Some bad things are happening outside Hogwarts now, some... things are going in the direction we least expect. Development, and Hogwarts is no longer safe. There are already some signs that some conspiracy is brewing here."

"Did Dumbledore tell you?" Solim suddenly said, "Whether it's a hint or something else, did Dumbledore tell you certain information?"

Sirius was stunned for a moment, then looked at Harry and hesitated for a while, then said slowly: "Yes, Lupine and I are helping Dumbledore do something now."

"Looking for Jorkins and Crouch?" Solim asked again.

Sirius raised his eyebrows, "Dumbledore told you?"

"No, I just guessed."

"Wait a minute." Hermione said, "I remember Percy saying that he now represents Crouch fully, at least in the Triwizard Tournament. He said that he often receives instructions from Crouch."

"We have known this for a long time." Sirius sighed, "But the key is - we can't find him now. Shortly after the end of the first project, he never reported to the Ministry of Magic."

"You mean...the instructions Percy received...were not from Mr. Crouch himself?" Hermione's eyes widened.

"Okay, these are not things you should be paying attention to now." Sirius stopped the topic, "What I want to say is: there is an undercurrent surging in Hogwarts now, you must be careful, especially if you are—— Harry .”

Harry was not surprised at all by his godfather's words. Whether it was the various signs that happened this semester or the last conversation between Dumbledore and him, it showed that something big was going to happen recently. Harry was no stranger to this kind of thing. He could even say he was very familiar with it. From the first grade to now, every time something happened, there would always be various signs. Although Harry couldn't catch it accurately. These clues may connect these clues, but his feelings will tell him that something is going to happen.

"You don't seem surprised?" Sirius noticed his godson's expression.

"What's so unexpected about him?" Solim crossed his arms and crossed his legs, "This is already the fourth year, what year doesn't something happen? If his sense of smell is still so dull..." Solim shook his head, "...then his life was really in vain."

Harry looked at Solim and scratched his hair, "Dumbledore told me something last time...I mean, Dumbledore let me know something through the pensieve.

Harry recounted what he had seen in Dumbledore's memory last time. It was the first time he had communicated these things with others, and it was also the first time Hermione had heard Harry talk about it.

"Oh my God!" Hermione covered her mouth, "You mean... Dumbledore said... Mr. Crouch got his Death Eater son out of Azkaban?"

"This is impossible!" Sirius stood up suddenly, "Dumbledore has never told me about this, and I don't think Lupin knows about it either. Besides, I saw them with my own eyes when I was in Azkaban. They took little Barty's body out. How could he still be alive?".
