Chapter 328

Moody's break room isn't hard to find.

At least the latter didn't expect that he had just been disguising himself on the first day, and he was actually recognized, and he took the initiative to find him.

In the face of Dumbledore, it didn't even take Su Zimo's hand to make a move, and the fake Moody was easily subdued.

At this moment, Dumbledore was looking at the curved wine bottle that the fake Moody was carrying, gently uncorked it, and poured the viscous liquid inside the bottle onto the floor.

Suddenly, a faint aura spread, and a special smell permeated the entire lounge.

"Polyjuice decoction."

Although the two people in the room are not proficient in potions, they still know a lot about this potion.

"The time limit for the compound potion is one hour, and I believe it won't be long before our Mr. Moody will reveal his true identity," Dumbledore said.

As he spoke, he waved the wand in his hand, and a fiery red light flashed.

At this time, Su Zimo had also completed the search of the fake Moody's and looked around the entire lounge by the way.

"Professor Dumbledore, look at this."

Not far in front of him were seven locked boxes.

After that, under Dumbledore's gaze, Su Zimo stepped forward, inserted the first key into the keyhole, and opened the box, which was filled with a bunch of spell books.

Seeing this scene, Su Zimo shook his head, closed the box stupidly, inserted the second key into the second lock, and opened it again, the box was no longer a spell book, but a variety of broken speculums, some parchment paper and quills, and a silver invisibility cloak.

Immediately afterwards, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth keys are inserted into the corresponding keyholes to open the box, and each time something appears, it is different.

Finally, when Su Zimo inserted the seventh key into the lock and lifted the lid of the box.

Even Dumbledore couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

What appeared in front of the two of them turned out to be a large pit, which looked like a basement.

About three meters deep on the floor lay a man, skinny as wood, as if asleep...... It was the real Mad Eye Moody, his wooden legs were missing, the eyelids of the MONOOCHIM were empty, and his gray hair was missing a few pinches, and he looked a little haggard.

Seeing this scene, Dumbledore came to the basement, gently fell to the sleeping Moody, and leaned over to check the other party's state at this time: "Knocked unconscious...... Caught in the Imperius Curse. Poor Alasto, believing that after this incident, he is afraid that he will become more vigilant. ”

In this regard, Su Zimo had no excuse for tacit understanding, but turned his head to look in the direction of the gate.

There, a middle-aged man with greasy black hair and sallow skin was coldly inspecting the room, and the latter's hooked nose twitched slightly, and he frowned.

"Compound decoction? Dumbledore, it looks like you're in a lot of trouble. ”

"Severus, you're here."

Hearing this, Dumbledore turned his head with a relaxed face, pointed to the fake Moody on the ground, and said faintly: "I think it's time to expose the true face of this Mr. Moody." ”

Regarding this scene, Su Zimo glanced at the visitor with some curiosity.

With the memory in his mind and Dumbledore's name, it was not difficult for him to judge that the hook-nosed man in front of him was the Severus Snape who had always played the villain in the original book, but in the last part, he had a shocking reversal and became a positive character.

He is also the current Head of Slytherin House, as well as the future Headmaster of Hogwarts.

I have to admit that Snape is a very complicated character, disgusted with Harry's father James Potter, but has a deep affection for Harry's mother, Lily Evans.

Even, in order to avenge Lily and protect the other party's only child, Snape betrayed Voldemort and became a double agent, who has been working for Dumbledore and has won his trust.

Recalling the red light just now, Su Zimo suddenly realized that it was most likely Dumbledore who summoned him here late at night.

After hearing Dumbledore's words, Snape nodded, took out a small vial of clear potion from his body, and poured it into the mouth of the fake Moody.

After a while, the latter's face began to change dramatically, the scars disappeared, the skin became smooth, the damaged nose grew and began to twitch, and the long, thick gray hair shrank under the scalp and was replaced by blonde hair.

Suddenly, with a "bang", the wooden leg fell off, and a normal human leg grew out in its original position.

Then, the enchanted eyeball popped out of its socket, and a real eye took its place. The magic eyes rolled on the floor, still dripping and spinning.

Su Zimo saw a man lying in front of him, with pale skin, slight freckles, and light yellow messy hair.

"Barty Crouch Jr. ......"

Suddenly, a slightly surprised voice rang out, and the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Minerva McGonagall, led a dirty house-elf, appeared at the door.

When he saw the man on the ground, the house-elf let out a scream and threw himself on the young man's chest.

"Young Master Barty, Master Barty, what are you doing here?"

Seeing that the latter did not react, the house-elf looked up and stared at Dumbledore with a pair of tearful eyes.

"You killed him! You killed him! You killed the master's son! ”

"He's just under the stun spell, Flash." Dumbledore said, an irresistible force in his voice, "Get out of the way. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his wand and pointed at little Crouch on the ground.

"Recover!"

When he opened his eyes, his gaze was blank and his cheeks were flabby. Dumbledore crouched in front of him, face to face.

"Can you hear me?" Dumbledore asked calmly.

The man's eyelids twitched a few times.

"I can hear you."

"I want you to tell us," Dumbledore said gently, "how did you end up here, how did you escape from Azkaban?" ”

Little Crouch took a deep breath with a shudder, and spoke in an emotionless, flat tone.

"My mother saved me. She knew she was going to die, and begged my father to get me out, which was the last thing she would do for her. My father loved her very much, even though he never loved me...... He agreed.

They came to see me and gave me a dose of polyjuice decoction with my mother's hair in it, and my mother drank the polyjuice decoction with my hair, and we exchanged looks. ”

Twinkle shook her head, trembling all over.

"Don't say it, Master Barty, don't say it, you're going to get your father in trouble!"

But little Crouch took another deep breath and continued to speak in a flat voice.

"Dementors are blind people who smell a healthy man and a dying man walking into Azkaban, and a healthy man and a dying man leaving Azkaban. My father smuggled me out. I pretended to be my mother, in case a prisoner could see through the crack in the door. ”

"It didn't take long for my mother to die in Azkaban. She never forgot to drink the compound decoction, and when she died, she was still my appearance, and she was buried as me, and everyone thought it was me. ”

The man's eyelids twitched.

"What did your father do with you when he brought you home?" Dumbledore asked calmly.

"Pretending that my mother died, a secret funeral was held, the grave was empty, and the house-elves nursed me back to health.

My father wanted to hide me and control me, and he had to use a lot of spells to restrain me. After I recovered my strength, I only wanted to find my master...... Serve him again. ”

"How did your father restrain you?" Dumbledore asked.

"Imperius Curse."

"I was controlled by my father and forced to wear an invisibility cloak from morning till night. I had always been with the house-elf, who was my caretaker, and she took pity on me and persuaded my father to give me some preferential treatment from time to time as a reward for doing well to me.

But he didn't know it, I got stronger, I started to fight against my father's spell, several times I almost recovered, and there were a few brief periods when I broke free from his control...... At that Quidditch match, I broke free. ”

"And then?"

Dumbledore said, a glint in his eyes.

"I found myself sitting in the crowd, watching the game, and in front of my eyes there was a wand in the pocket of a boy's clothes. I hadn't touched a wand since I entered Azkaban, and I stole it. ”

"You took the wand," said Dumbledore, "what did you do with it?" ”

"We went back to the tent and heard the voice of a Death Eater, I took my wand and released my master's mark...... I was still found by my father that day, but his spell had less and less influence on me, until my master came and found me, his most faithful servant. ”

His gaze was like two fires: "The father was cursed by his master, he was imprisoned, he was controlled, and the master forced him to do things as usual, as if nothing had happened."

When I was released, I woke up and I was myself again, as energetic as I was a few years ago.

My master told me that he needed to place a faithful servant at Hogwarts who would guide Harry Potter through three magical matches without showing up to do it himself.

He was to keep an eye on Harry Potter to make sure he got the Gold Cup, and turn it into a portkey that would take the first person who touched it to its master. ”

"So, you knocked Alastor Moody unconscious."

Dumbledore said, his blue eyes spurting with rage, though his voice remained calm.

"Yes."

Little Crouch nodded and laughed, "With the help of that idiot Arthur Wesley, I easily got into the academy, but it's a pity...... All this is still seen through by you.

Obviously, I have disguised myself very well, not only has the compound decoction become Moody's appearance, but even his personality has been imitated ten out of ten, how did you find out? ”
