Ivan breathed a sigh of relief when Crouch was willing to give in, and then used his wand to force Crouch away from the fireplace.

However, Crouch did not mean to move, he couldn't see Ivan in the invisible state, but guessed Ivan's identity from the voice, and his words suddenly became tough.

"Hals, I don't know why you'd want to follow Alastor into my office, but I want you to understand that assaulting a high-ranking employee of the Ministry of Magic is enough to keep you in Azkaban for a while! If you regret it now......"

"It's not necessarily us who should be in Azkaban... Buddy! Moody sneered, "I now accuse you of modifying the tournament rules, casting a Confusion Charm on the Goblet of Fire, and attempting to murder Harry Potter!" ”

"I murdered Harry Potter?" Barty Crouch laughed at Moody's words, "What reason do I have to do that?" ”

"Also, do you have a search warrant and arrest warrant from the Ministry of Magic? Who allowed you to investigate me privately? Investigate the director of an international cooperation and exchange department? Barty Crouch said sharply.

Moody automatically ignored Barty Crouch's words and said emphatically, pointing his wand at Crouch. I think that letter is proof! Give it to me, quick! ”

Barty Crouch didn't say a word, just looked at Moody indifferently.

The latter became more and more impatient, and directly stepped forward a few steps to grab it in person.

At this time, Barty Crouch suddenly spoke.

"I can show you the letter... There's nothing unsavory in it! ”

As he spoke, Barty Crouch handed over the envelope he was holding in his hand and continued in annoyance. "I hope you don't regret it!"

"I won't!" Moody grinned wickedly, snatched the letter, shook it, and examined it.

"What's written on it?" Ivan hurriedly asked, and he also wanted to go up and check it out, but he was worried that Crouch would take advantage of their distraction to make some kind of moth.

Moody did not directly answer Ivan's words, but looked at Crouch suspiciously, and said questioningly. "What have you been looking for these months? Or rather... Get? ”

"This is my private matter, and I am not obligated to answer you!" Crouch didn't have the slightest instinct to be a prisoner, and his attitude was very tough, he glared at Moody and said. "You should have finished reading it, right? That letter couldn't have been more common! ”

"Not necessarily, I advise you to be honest, Barty!" Moody grabbed Crouch's robe and said viciously.

"I don't believe you'll spend that long doing something that doesn't matter.

I asked Bagman, and he said that you hadn't seen anyone for months, and that you had pushed the affairs of the Triwizard Cup to him, and that my friends in the Department of Cooperation and Communications had never seen you return to the Ministry of Magic...... Also, I checked the documents on your desk just now, and you haven't touched them! ”

"It must be very important and urgent for you to let go of all these tasks at the same time, and I guess you have to do it very secretively, right?"

Moody's words were sharp, and the large MONOCKEYE stared at Crouch's changing expression.

Ivan on the side was also staring at Crouch, but to his disappointment, no matter what Moody said, Crouch's expression was exceptionally calm, without the slightest change.

But thinking about it, Ivan felt normal, Crouch was the former executive director, and he had risen all the way from the Aurors, and the ordinary method of inquiry was meaningless to him.

"Have you had enough? Alasto? These are my personal affairs, and they have nothing to do with Potter! Barty Crouch broke Moody's hand, looked at the two of them, and snapped. I'd like to meet Dumbledore and ask him how he manages his faculty and... Student's! ”

Moody clutched the letter in his hand, his hideous face twitching, and he was a little difficult to ride for a while.

"Can you show me the letter?" Ivan asked suddenly.

Moody turned his head and threw the letter in his hand without hesitation.

Ivan reached out and took it, opened the envelope and looked at it a few times, and found that the contents of the letter were very vague - the sender probably hoped that Barty Crouch would be able to give him some time, because it was very difficult to find some clues all over England with just one photograph......

Ivan had to admit that Crouch was very cautious, and there was not much information revealed in this letter at all, but thinking of Crouch's previous anomalies, the speculation in his mind resurfaced.

"Did you think of anything? Hals? Moody noticed the change in Ivan's expression and asked.

"You can show that note to our Mr. Crouch!" Ivan said casually, and then picked up the Daily Prophet to make a final confirmation.

Moody, dissatisfied with Ivan's betrayal, pouted, took the charred parchment from the pocket of the wizard's robe, and flipped it over.

"Do you recognize? This handwriting? Moody asked.

Crouch didn't understand what the two were doing at first, but when he saw the scribbled handwriting,

But there were waves in my heart.

He tried hard to keep his emotions in check, so as not to show his flaws in front of Moody.

However, in the next second, it was broken.

"You know the handwriting, don't you? This is written by someone you know very well......" Ivan said with certainty, dropping both the letter and the Daily Prophet on the table, his eyes fixed on Crouch's eyes.

"No, you're mistaken, I don't have any impressions......" Crouch shook his head, the expression on his face a little unnatural.

"You're lying!" Ivan interrupted Crouch's words, and under the perception of the deception, the fluctuating emotions of the other party were as conspicuous to him as the candle flame in the night!

Ivan tried to take a step closer, Crouch's panic was accumulating bit by bit, he avoided Ivan's eyes, but the fluttering words still reached his ears truthfully, and each sentence seemed to dig out the deep secrets in his brain.

"He's lost, isn't he?"

"You've been looking for him for months, crazy looking for him! You are worried that something will happen to him, or that something will simply happen, and you are even more worried that he will be caught by others and affect your career! ”

"After all...... He's (your son!) ）”

Ivan couldn't say the last few words, because Crouch's mood had completely collapsed, and he didn't care about the wand around his neck, and pulled Ivan up by the collar.

"Immediately... Get out of my brain! Crouch yelled.

"Let go of Hatha, Barty!" Moody rushed up immediately, ripped Crouch's hand away, and kicked Crouch to the ground.
