Chapter 514 There Must Be Something Wrong with Alastor, Meow!
Dumbledore's expression was very solemn. Because this shows that the other party knows Hogwarts, or in other words, Fish very well...
Just like Sirius last year.
So this is another Animagus sneaking in? Or Karkaroff? Or maybe... another professor or student was seduced by Voldemort?
As for Barty Crouch leaving on his own... the possibility was so low that Dumbledore didn't even consider it.
"Albus! There must be something wrong with Alastor! Fish go beat him!"
(ω)
Maomao, who also thought of a similar situation, shouted excitedly, and based on past experience, he quickly targeted Moody. Then he turned around and ran towards the castle, intending to find Mad-Eye Moody. Have a fight.
"Etc., etc!"
Dumbledore grabbed him and said in a dumbfounded voice: "Alastor is fine!"
Although he said this, Dumbledore actually felt a little guilty because Voldemort's curse was not a joke.
But he rejected this idea again, because Mad-Eye Moody originally only planned to stay at Hogwarts for one year, and with his character, it was impossible for him to be tempted by Voldemort.
"You'd better try to find Mr. Crouch in other ways," Dumbledore said again: "For example, your spell that can detect my tracking, or asking the small animals nearby?"
"oh……"
(ω)
Fisch, who failed to fight Moody again, pouted unhappily and then closed his eyes.
After a moment, Fish covered his forehead and shook his head, and said: "No trace of Crouch was found... and there are no animals nearby to ask questions about."
"Well... thank you, Fish." Dumbledore forced a smile, "You should go back first, and don't run around tonight."
"Is the problem serious, meow?"
ω
Fish did not leave in a hurry, but asked curiously.
"That's not particularly serious," Dumbledore didn't want Fish to interfere too much, so he replied with a smile: "Anyway, his work is now taken over by Percy Weasley, so it won't affect the three strongest people." The competition."
However, cats are not so easy to fool.
"What about Voldemort? He's a bad guy, right? He's weak though."
"You also said that Voldemort is very weak, so even if it is related to him, nothing big will happen." Dumbledore continued to reassure.
"Hmm...it seems to be the case..." Maomao thought for a while and seemed to be fine, so he nodded and said, "Then Fish will go back to find Hermione first. Good night, Albus."
()
After saying that, Fish ran towards the castle. As Dumbledore watched the cat leave, the smile on his face gradually faded and turned solemn again.
After that, Dumbledore summoned professors to search for Barty Crouch in the Forbidden Forest. Putting aside the matter, Fish was quickly informed by Hermione, Harry and others after returning to the dormitory. Ron was surrounded.
"How is the situation? Have you found Mr. Crouch?" Hermione asked.
"No meow, that person also knows how to hide scent... Fei Xu is so angry!"
(`ω)
Maomao replied unhappily.
"Could it be another Animagus?" Not long after meeting Sirius, he guessed that Rita Skeeter was an Animagus, so it was easy for Harry to associate them with each other. of.
"Even if the person who attacked Mr. Crouch was an Animagus, what about Mr. Crouch himself? It's impossible for him to turn into some animal and leave together, right? He was still in that state of unconsciousness." Min retorted quickly.
Maomao also added on the side: "Fish has used a special spell to find people, and Crouch's aura has completely disappeared, meow."
"That person must have picked up the Marauder's Map too!" Harry slapped his thigh in annoyance.
"Yeah... you lost such a useful thing." Ron also said with some reproach.
The Marauder's Map was a gift given to Harry by the twins, and Ron had always complained about it. If Harry hadn't been his best friend, and he needed the map even more under the circumstances, Ron would never have given up. .
"That map was not made by Remus and the others, meow? Wouldn't it be nice to ask them to help make another one? And Sirius is not your godfather, meow? You can also ask him to teach you how to do it."
(ω)
Feishu scratched his head in confusion, not knowing what was so regrettable about this.
"That's right!" Ron's eyes lit up, "You can also ask them to help make a few more!"
Hermione's eyes also lit up, and she was even more interested in the method of making the Marauder's Map.
Harry was stunned... weren't we just talking about Mr. Crouch's disappearance?
He looked at Fei Xu speechlessly.
Fei Xu: "Meow?"
ω
"By the way, Percy mentioned in his previous reply that Mr. Crouch seemed to be in a bad mental state before school started." Harry brought the topic back, "Does this mean... that he was Was he already under the control of the Imperius Curse at that time?"
"But why did that person control Mr. Crouch?" Hermione asked doubtfully.
"I'll write another letter to Percy tomorrow to see if there are any clues from him." Ron said seriously.
Fish was not interested in these things, and turned into a cat and jumped onto Hermione's lap.
The few people discussed until late at night, and then they went back to their dormitories to sleep yawning.
In the morning, when Fish got up from the bed and went to the hall with Hermione for breakfast, they found that Harry and Ron had already sat at the Gryffindor table.
"We just asked Hedwig and Piglet to send a letter to Cold and Percy. I hope they will have some clues."
Harry whispered at the table.
"Hmm."
Ψ(Φ~Φ)婩
Fish responded casually and wolfed down his breakfast.
"Can you go to Dumbledore later and help ask about the situation?" Harry continued to whisper.
"Hmm."
Ψ(Φ~Φ)婩
Fish continued to wolf down his breakfast.
Maomao was not very interested in this matter, but he would still help if he was busy...
"Albus and the others couldn't find Crouch either."
Fish had already told Harry the information he had asked before the first class.
The next day, Sirius and Percy's replies arrived.
However, in addition to giving some suggestions for the preparation of the third project, Sirius only emphasized in the letter that Harry should pay attention to his own safety, and there was not a single word about the Marauder's Map...
This made Hermione and Ron very disappointed, but the reasons for their disappointment were different.
Percy said in the letter that he would report the matter to the Ministry of Magic and ask the authorities to send someone to search Mr. Crouch's home to see if there were any clues, and then write to inform them if there was any new information.
At this point, Harry had no other choice but to wait for news from Percy while preparing for the third project.
In addition to Harry and the other two warriors, this time Fish also began to prepare for the third project... He began to pester Professor McGonagall to tell him some stories about wizards fighting or treasure hunting.
The prize of one thousand gold galleons can only go to the cat!
