The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v3 Chapter 226: retired professors

Bones was shocked by the old Crouch's words. What a desperate mother's love this is. Little Crouch's mother, for her son, would rather go to Azkaban to die! Didn't even forget to take Polyjuice Potion until he died.

After hearing the story, Burns couldn't help crying, and Dumbledore's eyes became deeper.

After the old Crouch finished speaking, he fell into silence. There were only strange sounds left in the room, like sobbing. It turned out to be Winky, she didn't know when she came behind Mr. Crouch, and after hearing Crouch's confession, she couldn't help crying.

If it were someone else, Old Crouch would definitely choose to give it a go, control the insiders, and use the Forgetting Curse to tamper with their memories, but the problem is still there, and the person who came was Dumbledore.

Even if Burns's brain was flooded, moved by his little story, and decided to turn against him, two wizards and a house-elf couldn't beat Dumbledore—even if they sneaked up. When Dumbledore and Grindelwald confronted each other, none of the people present were born!

"Undo his Imperius Curse." Dumbledore wanted to have a direct conversation with Little Crouch, so he turned his head and ordered to Old Crouch.

Old Crouch walked up to his son without saying a word, ready to undo the Imperius Curse on his son. What Old Crouch didn't know was that people who have been controlled by the Imperius Curse for a long time will actually gradually develop resistance to the Imperius Curse, which means that the influence of the Imperius Curse on them will gradually decrease.

And this spell can be resisted through one's own willpower. The fake Moody once taught students to resist the Imperius Curse - the specialty is very suitable, and Harry Potter is one of the best. When he was hit with the Imperius Curse for the first time, he could successfully resist the fake Moody's orders.

During more than ten years of detention, little Crouch has been resisting the Imperius Curse cast by his father. Some results have been achieved recently: he can temporarily recover his nature, and temporarily get rid of the old Crouch's control. The old Crouch's control over the young Crouch has been decreasing.

The strange noise in the room just now was the sound made by little Crouch when he resisted the Imperius Curse—he rolled off the bed.

"Wait a moment!"

Dumbledore suddenly stopped Old Crouch. When sorting out what happened just now, Dumbledore discovered a possibility. So he didn't undo the Imperius Curse on Little Crouch rashly, but squatted in front of Little Crouch, and gave him a careful examination.

During the inspection, Dumbledore found that Crouch Jr. was not in a stable state. Dumbledore noticed a slight abnormality based on his years of experience.

He looked at old Batty with a complex expression, "Baty, do you know that your son has been resisting your Imperius Curse? Your spell is no longer so stable."

Old Batty's expression changed, "How is it possible?"

I don't know what aspect of what Dumbledore said is being questioned.

"Otherwise, how do you think the voice came from just now?" Dumbledore said softly, "Go and lift the Imperius Curse."

Old Batty was still skeptical about this matter in his heart: With his son's virtue, he could actually break free from his Imperius Curse?

After the Imperius Curse was lifted, Little Crouch's expression became lively. He first took a quick look at the surrounding environment, then lowered his head.

"Barty Crouch? Do you still recognize me?" Dumbledore bent over and talked to little Crouch in a gentle voice.

"Of course," Barty Crouch Jr. still lowered his head and his voice was vague, "Principal Dumbledore, how could I not recognize you?"

"Have you lived here all these years?"

"That's right. You're sending me back to Azkaban?"

"No."

Little Crouch raised his head in surprise, and the other two in the room were also surprised by Dumbledore's words. But in the next second, a red light flashed and hit his forehead precisely, knocking little Crouch unconscious.

Burns:!

Crouch was indifferent, as if it wasn't his son that Dumbledore knocked out.

"Barty...Barty!" Dumbledore stood up straight, facing Crouch. In his eyes, the anger almost turned into substance.

"It's really unexpected!" Dumbledore's figure is very tall, standing in front of Crouch almost a head taller than him, coupled with the addition of anger, Crouch was suddenly out of breath a feeling of.

"The power of love makes people crazy." Dumbledore stared for a long time before saying such a sentence.

"I... will take the blame and resign." Crouch was silent for a long time before giving his own response.

"You should resign, but not now." Dumbledore's tone was very serious, and he also looked at Burns, "Amelia, I hope you can keep a secret for the time being."

Burns froze for a moment, but still nodded in agreement.

"I have a more important plan in the future, and I need your cooperation." Dumbledore looked at Burns and Crouch, who had obviously collapsed.

After the exams, all the students in Hogsmeade vented their energy wantonly with the Galleon and Sickle copper Knuts in their wallets, and Harry and Ron were no exception.

The two of them were carrying a few big bags at this time, walking across the lawn with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and walked towards the castle. A shadow shone on them, Harry raised his head and saw Hagrid, who was also carrying a big bag in his hand, which smelled of blood, and Hound Fang was circling the bag excitedly.

"Hagrid? What did you do?"

"Hunting rabbits!" Hagrid happily raised the bag in his hand, causing a gust of wind, "Give Buckbeak another meal!"

Buckbeak~lightnovelpub.net~ who was acquitted did not return to his own group, but lingered with Hagrid instead.

For it, it seems to be a good choice to include food and housing every day. But it didn't eat and drink for free, but became the guard of Hogwarts vegetable patch and Hagrid's hut chicken coop. With such a hippogriff to watch over, small animals such as rabbits and ferrets no longer dare to roam the fields.

"By the way, let me tell you a piece of gossip, you must not tell anyone else," Hagrid lowered his voice, even though there were only three of them around, "Next semester, Professor Scamander and Professor Lupine will both After retiring, I will take over from Professor Scamander and continue to teach the Protection of Magical Creatures class... I will be more cautious this time..."

"Congratulations...Wait, you just said that Professor Lupine is leaving his job too?" Harry was about to congratulate Hagrid when he suddenly noticed something was wrong: Why is Professor Lupine leaving his job too? !

I got leeks and made scrambled eggs with leeks. The taste is superb. Then I ordered a pot of noodles and ate fried pork with kohlrabi. This meal was so rich!

I will try to bake leek pancakes tomorrow~
