Chapter 243: The Departure of the Mad-Eyed Man (Part 2)

At the door of the hall, a man and a woman stood and whispered.

"Umbridge has read your letter, Harry, and there is no other explanation. ”

"Do you think Umbridge captured Hedwig?"

"I've had this suspicion ever since Filch said you ordered a big, because it was obviously a stupid lie. Hermione Granger whispered, "If Umbridge had grabbed the big foot last night......"

"Say no more!" Harry Potter winked at Hermione Granger.

Because he saw Christopher Patrick of Slytherin, coming from the direction of the Quidditch pitch, towards the castle.

Could it be that he had joined the Quidditch team in Slytherin, Draco Malfoy's secret weapon?

After all, he'd seen this Patrick and Malfoy mingle a few times before, and in a few days, the Quidditch match between Gryffindor and Slytherin would begin.

Jon made his way up the stairs, looked at Harry in surprise, nodded at him, and walked into the castle.

"Does he know you?" asked Hermione, curious.

"One side of it......" Harry said succinctly...... For some reason, he once again remembered the prophecy he had made the last time he talked to Patrick.

"Don't think about it...... Harry shook his head and said to himself, "He's just an old liar like Trelawney...... Malfoy's friend, how can there be good people!"

......

The weather was terrible throughout October, with violent storms and rain lasting almost into the last days of October.

After that, the temperature suddenly turned cold, the weather was frozen, and a layer of frost appeared outside the window every morning......

The advent of Halloween also basically means the arrival of winter.

When the day before Halloween, everyone walks out of the common room in Slytherin. They couldn't help but put on thick cotton jackets, bearskin hats and dragon skin gloves.

As Jon walked into the hall to get ready for breakfast, he suddenly noticed that the noise inside was louder than ever.

What's going on, could it be that Instructional Order No. 25 has been issued...... Jon thought to himself.

The students at the four long tables, both senior and junior, formed one small group after another, and seemed to be eagerly discussing something.

Jon noticed that in every small group, there was a Daily Prophet.

Could it be that the Ministry of Magic can't hold it down, and the Daily Prophet has already reported the news of Voldemort's return?

Otherwise, Jon really couldn't figure out what news would shake the students so much.

At the Slytherin table, an owl brought Jon's copy of the Daily Prophet to ...... Jon paid it five nats, then took down the newspaper.

As he poured a glass of pumpkin juice, Jon opened the newspaper and prepared to drink it and read it.

glanced at the headlines on the front page......

It took a lot of effort for Jon to keep the pumpkin juice from squirting onto the newspaper in his mouth.

"What the hell!" he muttered.

The headline on the front page of the Daily Prophet was actually -

"Former Auror, Hogwarts' Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher Alastor Moody, his real identity is actually a Death Eater!"

......

Jon immediately understood why he had heard such a loud noise when he entered the hall.

Although Mad-Eye Moody has a mediocre reputation, he should be considered a well-known name in the entire wizarding world when it comes to fighting the dark arts...... It's shocking that he's officially certified as a Death Eater.

But...... That's not right, how did the people at the Ministry of Magic know that Moody was a Death Eater?

This doesn't make sense!

Jon had a complicated expression and began to read the news as he continued to read it.

"Former Auror Alastor Moody, often referred to as the 'Mad Eye', has always appeared in the public eye as an enemy of the dark arts. However, Lady Dolores Umbridge, a senior inquisitor from Hogwarts, has confirmed that her true identity is actually a mysterious person hidden among us, that is, a Death Eater.

Lady Dolores Umbridge has always been committed to the cause of fighting the dark arts, and soon after arriving at Hogwarts, she discovers that there are people inside Hogwarts and tries to contact the well-known Death Eater and Azkaban fugitive Siris Black.

It took two months for Ms. Umbridge to find the character's contact with Black and determine that the character was none other than Mad Eye Moody.

And last night, when Moody had a secret contact with Black...... The quick-witted Lady Umbridge infiltrates Hogwarts with a team of Aurors and Dementor guards in advance in an attempt to capture Black and Moody.

Unexpectedly, the cunning Moody was superior and escaped from Hogwarts a few minutes early...... He also warned Blake to flee quickly.

Now, both fugitives are under full arrest by the Ministry of Magic.

According to speculation among dark arts experts, Moody and Black are likely to have contacted and met in an attempt to recreate the career of their deceased master, the Mystery Man.

And most likely, they began to gather the believers of the once mysterious people.

However, the Minister for Magic, Mr. Cornelius Fudge, can assure everyone that everything is under control and that their plot will not succeed.

In addition, Alastor Moody has been listed as a high-risk wanted criminal by the Ministry of Magic, and his bounty is the same as that of Blake, which is 10,000 Galleons.

Welcome all enthusiastic people to report!"

......

This is a somewhat inexplicable news, and Jon was stunned when he saw it.

It's good that it's not what I thought...... Jon originally thought that Barty Crouch Jr.'s identity had been revealed!

But now it seems understandable?

Harry Potter was still using letters to communicate with his godfather, Cialis Black...... As a result, the letter was intercepted by Umbridge.

Umbridge devised to capture Blake, but was run away by Blake...... Annoyed and angry, she forcibly found a reason to blame Moody, and then prepared to take Moody to Azkaban, and even directly prepared to have the Dementors kill Moody.

However, the Death Eaters learned about this and contacted Moody (the parchment Jon gave Moody) and told Moody about the true plan of action for the Ministry of Magic.

Moody, who was on guard, fled ahead of Umbridge before he could make a move.

It seems that Umbridge is really crazy...... Mad Eye Moody is a prestigious mission, so he is discredited without evidence, and even reversed black and white, calling him a "Death Eater......

Could it be that the Ministry of Magic is really not afraid of causing a backlash from wizards?
