Chapter 24: Discussion of the Order of the Phoenix (2)

It's still a familiar basement, and this time, Holly felt the familiar fluctuations earlier than the last time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's not that my strength has improved recently, in fact, when you reach the ninth order or above, it is already difficult to quickly improve your strength. Of course, some secret methods are still possible, but you bear the consequences. More often than not, the Godhead is recovering, or rather, the part of the soul that originally belonged to Artemis is gradually merging with Holey's own soul......

was originally more powerful than the soul of ordinary people (Muggles), and in the process of fusing the soul fragments of the Dark Lord and part of Artemis's soul, Holly's perception ability has also been qualitatively improved compared to before...... It's just that Heckly is still a little uncomfortable with this situation for the time being, because the sudden increase in perception ability allows her to perceive subtle sounds, and at the same time, it also makes many small sounds that were originally ignored become extremely loud.

Holly is still trying to control this ability, but ...... For the time being, the results are not significant enough.

Feeling that the Savior had returned upstairs with his two best friends, Holly came out of the darkness.

"There seem to be a lot of people today. Holly greeted someone he knew. The seats near the fireplace had been vacated, and as in the very center of Dumbledore, it seemed that the two positions had been decided to be given to these two men.

"Well, you're here too. Dumbledore didn't say much when he saw Holly's appearance.

"Alright, let's move on to our meeting. Dumbledore tapped on the table, drawing everyone's attention away from Holly to him.

"We've been busy lately, but we've been working well...... For example, the recent tracking of the Death Eaters that had been identified in the past, the timely warning made our actions a lot less troublesome, and the guard mission some time ago, everyone did a good job......," Dumbledore concluded.

"In the next period of time, our activity center will change to a certain extent, of course, it is still necessary to track down the Death Eaters, but I think that while tracking those Death Eaters, we also need to pay attention to the traces of the two people, and if there are clues, let me know as soon as possible. ”

"Who?"

"Karkaroff and Barty Crouch Jr. Dumbledore said slowly, causing a commotion in the audience.

"Hasn't Karkaroff been caught yet?" was the question of someone who didn't care much about the news in the wizarding world.

"Barty Crouch Jr., didn't he die early?" was Cialis Black's reaction.

"Alright...... The news also came from an uncertain source. Dumbledore said, glancing at Snape, who was sitting next to him without saying a word. "It's not for you to make it a task to find these two people, but just to remind me if you happen to see these two people. ”

"Also, Siris, I'm not sure what happened to Barty Crouch Jr., but I have evidence that he is still alive, even the year before, at Hogwarts. ”

"What?" exclaimed in unison many of the people present, of course, Holly was also surprised, although for different reasons, but also showed the same expression as everyone else, but did not arouse Dumbledore's suspicion.

"Barty Crouch Jr., who took the form of Alastor last year through Polyjuice Potion, spent a year at Hogwarts......" Dumbledore didn't get any information from Holly's face, and could only slowly tell the truth. "Alastor and I found a few hairs when we checked the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor's office and Alastor's cane afterwards. After adding the Polyjuice Potion, we discovered that the hairs came from Barty Crouch Jr., whom we had long thought was dead. ”

"But why don't you tell the Ministry of Magic, if that's the case, I think there's a big hole in Azkaban's defenses. Kingsley questioned.

"Well, nice question. I did tell Cornelly about the discovery, but we, the Deputy Minister of Magic, didn't seem to care about it...... He thinks our evidence doesn't stand up to scrutiny, and even wonders if we have anything to do with Barty Crouch Sr.'s disappearance...... Although I eventually altered Connelly's memories to make him forget about the period, it was ...... I don't think the current Ministry of Magic will accept our views. Dumbledore said, referring to the Ministry of Magic and looking at Holly, who was sitting at one end of the long table. If it weren't for the "agreement" between Holly and Erinka and Fudge, many things would not be so troublesome, at least the two ministers agreed at the same time, and many things would definitely be able to move forward quickly, instead of being like now, every move is like stepping on a swamp, difficult to move but a lot of constraints.

For Dumbledore's gaze from time to time, Holly could feel it very clearly. It should be said that from the moment he entered the basement, most of Holly's attention was focused on Dumbledore's every move.

For no other reason, Dumbledore's current difficulties were in his own expectations, and he was accustomed to the previous smooth sailing, and suddenly encountered the current difficult situation, and no one would have a good face for the "culprit" who caused this situation. It's easy to go from frugality to luxury, and it's hard to go from luxury to frugality, and that's probably what Dumbledore is doing now.

After more than ten years in the wizarding world, Dumbledore encountered challenges and obstacles again, and when he found that some of his past methods were no longer of much effect, he was also very uncomfortable.

If it was more than ten years ago, there would not be the current situation, every step at that time was taken out under the situation of all parties, of course, there are also people in the Order of the Phoenix who are gradually lazy, and at the same time, increasing age also brings more constraints.

"If I had caught Barty Crouch Jr., it would have made him enjoy all the things he had done to me. Moody's was gritting his teeth on the side, and after nearly ten months of detention, no one would be calm when he remembered that painful experience.

"Calm, Alasto. Okay, but there's something else to keep an eye on for Karkaroff and Barty Crouch Jr., but there's something else to keep an eye on over the next few days. Dumbledore said. "In the next few days, Kingsley, and Arthur, you guys who work at the Ministry of Magic, need to keep an eye on what has to do with Harry's hearing......"

"Hmm. Several of the men mentioned by Dumbledore nodded in agreement.
