Chapter 639: What Went Wrong?

"The crimes I have committed are enough to keep me in Azkaban for the rest of my life, and the result of killing individuals will not change anything, and I have no need to hide it from you." Crouch said angrily.

Moody pursed his lips, but didn't retort.

Ivan is well aware of Bertha Jorkins' whereabouts, she was cleaned of her memories by Crouch with an amnesia charm, and then ran to Romania and happened to bump into Voldemort's gun, and now the body is cold, and she also provided Voldemort with a lot of information.

However, Ivan naturally did not say this news, because he could not explain the source of the news.

Crouch went on to talk about what was next, and after dealing with Bertha Jorkins, everything was calm again and no one else was bothering, which allowed him to start working on more things, such as the upcoming Triwizard and the World Quidditch Tournament.

"For more than a decade, my son Barty Jr. has been doing very well and has not made any trouble, and Twinkle begged me to be more lenient with Barty Jr., which was the day of the World Quidditch Tournament, so I decided to take him to see it."

"His favorite thing used to be was Quidditch...... "Crouch sighed faintly.

"Hey, it looks like this prisoner is having a good time." Moody said sarcastically, "You also have the audacity to take little Barty to a place where so many people gather." ”

"I did a lot of preparation, booked a private room on the top floor for him, put an invisibility cloak on him to make sure he wouldn't be noticed, and arranged flashing moments to keep an eye on him...... It's a pity that something went wrong in the end! Crouch explained.

"What went wrong? He ran away? Moody asked.

"That's right! He's gone, and he's gone in the Quidditch venue! Crouch had a slightly frightened look on his face.

"Can you tell us more about that? Mr. Crouch? When did you hear about this? Ivan hurriedly asked, believing that this was where all the variables began.

"Barty Jr. must have broken free from the Imperius Curse I cast, and then took advantage of the riot in the back of the venue to escape." At this, Crouch seemed very angry, and he thought that it was all to blame for the incompetent house-elf who did not take a good look at his son.

But under Ivan's repeated questioning, he still revealed more details.

After the riot, as a high-ranking official of the Ministry of Magic, he immediately mobilized people to arrest the dark wizards who were making trouble, and then led people to the place where the dark magic mark was raised, and accidentally found Twinkle there.

When he saw Twinkle, Crouch knew that Barty Jr. must have escaped, but he suspected that his son was nearby.

"So that Dark Mark was released by your son?" Moody snapped his cane indignantly, "You know that you are going to put the blame on Harry and Sirius!" ”

Crouch smiled wryly, and did not refute, but continued, "After everyone had left, I went back there to take my son, but I searched every inch of the neighborhood, but I couldn't find where little Barty was......"

Hearing this, Ivan's brows furrowed, in the original time and space, Crouch should have successfully found little Barty and brought him home.

What went wrong now?

Ivan struggled to recall the plots in his memory, and suddenly thought that little Barty was accidentally hit by the magic of several wizards in the original time and space before he was forced to stay in place, which was completely an extremely coincidental thing.

If this hadn't happened, Barty Jr. would have a good chance of escaping from the chaos, and as soon as he left, he would definitely go to Voldemort.

Then Voldemort and Peter Pettigrew naturally did not have the need to raid Crouch's mansion, which also explains why Barty Crouch was not controlled by Voldemort's Imperius Curse.

Thinking about all this, Ivan was not happy at all.

It's no use just knowing where the problem started, it's about how to fix it!

Where is Barty now, his name can't be found on the map of the living point, and how did he manage to modify the Goblet of Fire......

This question gave Ivan a headache, he thought that Barty Jr. was disguised as his father Crouch to do all this, but now it seems that Crouch himself has no problems, which means that his previous guesses are all wrong!

"For the next period of time, I have been looking for Barty Jr.'s whereabouts, but I have searched the entire competition venue and have not been able to find where he is, so I can only ask someone to help find out the news about Barty Jr. in England." Crouch said with a tired expression.

"Then why don't you simply refuse to be the referee of the Triwizard Tournament and spend more time looking for your son's whereabouts?" Ivan asked curiously.

"No, you're mistaken, Hals, and only by agreeing to this errand will he have plenty of reason to shirk it!" Moody said with a sneer. "Right, Barty?"

Crouch nodded ashamedly, when he wasn't at the castle, he used the excuse that the Cooperative Division was busy with business, and the Ministry of Magic thought he was busy with the affairs of the Triwizard Cup.

Under this guise, no one will come to question his whereabouts in a short time.

However, what Crouch didn't expect was that there was no news about Barty Jr. for several months, but today he saw a note written by Barty Jr. from Ivan and Moody.

"I've been hesitant to tell Minister Fudge or Dumbled......ore about these things for months," Crouch's face was full of struggle, and he spent countless days and nights torn between selfishness and morality, and his spirit almost collapsed.

Thinking of this, Crouch slowly turned his head to look at Ivan and said with emotion. "Speaking of which, I need to thank you, Hals, for helping me make the choice."

"Oh, you're talking lightly, Barty! If we hadn't broken in and figured it all out, would you have turned yourself in? No kidding! Moody tugged at the corners of his mouth, and without hesitation debunked Crouch's selfish thoughts. You'll just keep hoping to find your son, won't you? ”

"You know very well that if you shake things out, you're going to end up in Azkaban, and everyone will know what kind of person you are as the former executive director...... So you want to find your son and live the same life again! Moody's words were as sharp as a knife.

"Enough, Alasto!" Crouch was annoyed by Moody's yin and yang weirdness, "I did something wrong, but judging me is the job of the Ministry of Magic, don't forget, you're no longer an Auror!" ”
