Harry Potter and the Temple of Tales

"Hmm."

A strong tremor stung Jorkins' nerves. She paused and frowned slightly.

"Damn it, she's resisting." Jorkins' face began to change. She covered her chest, looking a little embarrassed.

Then she lightly tapped the space magic barrier with her wand. The transparent barrier shattered in an instant like glass.

Barty Crouch Jr. glared fiercely at Lewis who was lying on the ground. Just as he was about to do something, Jorkins pulled his sleeve behind him.

"Take me back to find the Dark Lord, I won't be stable for much longer." Jorkins looked ferocious, with large drops of sweat rolling down her face.

"Wait a minute." Barty Crouch Jr. picked up his wand from the ground, pointed his finger at the sky and said casually:

"The corpse appears immediately!"

Green light burst out from the wand, turning into a green skull in the sky, with a snake slowly coming out of the skull's mouth.

However, just after he finished the spell, a second spell came from the forest and hit the wand to the ground.

The figures of the Ministry of Magic staff were clearly visible. Barty Crouch Jr. smiled evilly at Louis, then grabbed Jorkins, and the two of them disappeared faster than Apparition.

"No!" The Ministry of Magic staff member's third spell appeared at the same time as her, but the spell fell into the air. She gasped for air, with a look of annoyance on her face.

"Tonks?"

Only then did Louis see clearly that the reinforcements were none other than Nymphadora Tonks, the newly promoted Auror of the Ministry of Magic.

"Are you okay, Louis?" Tonks turned around and pulled Louis up from the ground. His face looked a little weak. He had just been hit by a strong psychic magic, and he was a little depressed for a while.

"Why are you here, Tonks?" Louis was a little curious. He originally wanted to let Dobby go first and bring the news to Moody and the others so that people from the Ministry of Magic could come and catch them all, but he didn't expect that the first person to come was

Tonks.

"I was patrolling nearby," Tonks said, "Mr. Crouch's tent was attacked, and we were all investigating the clues. Later, I saw two house elves running out of the forest, and one of them

Still unconscious, I chased them in the direction they came from."

In this forest, the use of phantom transformation was prohibited because the finals had been held previously, but the more advanced spatial displacement magic was not included.

This was also the reason why Tonks was so anxious but still failed to catch her opponent.

"Mr. Crouch and the others should also know, right?"

"I think they will be here soon." Tonks pointed to the mark in the sky, with a worried look in her eyes.

Sure enough, not long after she finished speaking, she heard several rustling voices, and then Alastor Moody, Barty Crouch, Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge, Arthur Weasley, etc.

people.

"Louis! Are you okay?"

Arthur walked towards Louis with a worried expression, and the boy smiled and shook his head at him.

"What's going on? Who put the Dark Mark?" Crouch held the wand and asked Louis.

"Crouch, you are crazy, he is still a child!" Mr. Weasley was a little dissatisfied, "Do you think a thirteen-year-old child will support the mysterious man?"

"Of course it's not Arthur. I just want to understand the situation clearly." Barty Crouch said in a panic, "But you have also seen the fact that this child is the only one present."

"No, Mr. Crouch, there were two other people at the time." Tonks interrupted, "They were hurting Louis. When I arrived, they had already disapparated away."

"Apparition? You must know that Apparition is not allowed here. This is a magic performed by me myself."

"I know, but that's the truth." Tonks spread her hands.

In the silence, Tonks could not prove that there were indeed Death Eaters present at the time, and Crouch had no reason to falsely accuse Louis of launching the Dark Mark.

"Mr. Crouch, Minister, there is a new discovery here!" An accompanying Auror from the Ministry of Magic picked up a tea towel from the ground and the wand that Tonks had knocked to the ground.

"No, that's impossible!" Crouch became even more irritable after seeing the tea towel. He waved his hands and paced back and forth on the grass.

"If it's true what Tonks said, then the person who released the Dark Mark may be the owner of this wand and tea towel." Moody leaned against the tree, looking straight at Bartik with his evil eye.

Crouch, "However, I remember someone reminded me that the former Death Eater Barty Crouch Jr. was still alive."

"What are you talking about, Moody!" Barty Crouch said in an angry tone, "My son died in Azkaban a long time ago."

"None of us know what the truth is. If you don't mind, I can use a flashback spell."

"It's up to you." Barty Crouch waved his hand indifferently, and then several wizards from the Ministry of Magic gathered around to discuss the Dark Mark.

Fourteen years have passed since the release of the last Dark Mark. Over the past fourteen years, the British wizarding world has been peaceful. It seems that with the departure of Voldemort, the Death Eaters who followed him have also disappeared.

But today, the Dark Mark has reappeared in the sky, making people feel fear. The Dark Mark represents endless disaster and death. Fear permeates the wizarding world, and it seems to predict that it will bring endless disasters to Britain.

The second-generation Dark Lord in danger is about to return.

Louis was brought out by Mr. Weasley, and what happened next had nothing to do with him. Moody used the flashback spell to recreate the magic used by the wand at that time, including the corpse used by Barty Crouch Jr.

Immediately, and Fudge knew about Louis' special wand core, it was natural that Louis' suspicion was completely eliminated.

But Barty Crouch did not feel at ease. He knew that the tea towel was carried by his house elf Winky. When he thought about Winky's disappearance and the attack on his tent, what he was most worried about would eventually happen.

.

It seems that he can no longer keep Winky, otherwise the secrets about Barty Crouch Jr. will be found out sooner or later. And the former Auror Alastor Moody has already begun to doubt, no, not doubt, judging from his tone

It seems to be convinced.

Before he has enough evidence, he must find a scapegoat to deceive him.

"I actually have a little clue about this tea towel." Barty Crouch said suddenly, "Moody, didn't you find house elf hair next to my tent before? To be honest, this tea towel is mine.

Worn by the house elf Sparkle."
