303. The Dark Lord may need a helper

It's a new week.

On Monday morning, Scott went to the auditorium with his roommates for breakfast with his books.

"This Saturday is our first game of the school year." Roger said to Scott.

"The opponent is Gryffindor." "Of course, this is the first time that our tactical advisory team has been involved in a game, and I've gathered enough intel on my opponent that others are already working on tactics!" ”

Both turned their heads to stare at Scott as they spoke.

Even Milton said, "You can't push yourself too hard, Scott, and it's nice to watch the game once in a while and relax." ”

"Okay, I got it." Scott raised his hand in surrender, "I'll go to the game on Saturday." ”

His roommates smiled with satisfaction.

Walking into the auditorium, Scott glanced over to the Gryffindor table before taking his seat.

"What are you looking at?" Eddie, a keen "gossip expert", immediately asked curiously.

Scott glanced at him helplessly, "Nothing. ”

He ignored Eddie's curious little eyes and began to eat on his own.

Scott actually wanted to see if Harry had arrived.

It dawned on him that he could actually find out what Voldemort was doing through Harry.

There is an invisible connection between Harry and Voldemort.

In the "original book", after Voldemort was found by Pettigrew and regained some strength, Harry immediately saw him in his dreams.

Although Voldemort's recovery at that time was limited, he could only be held in Pettigrew's arms like a baby.

When Voldemort was fully resurrected, the connection between Harry and him became stronger, and he saw Nagini attacking Arthur in his dreams? Weasley's scene.

At this time, the owl sent a new issue of the Daily Prophet.

After reading the newspaper, the students began to denounce the Ministry of Magic in disappointment for its incompetence and inaction.

"Take a look at today's headline, "Operation Retaking Castle Edin: Department of Mysteries Research Progressing Underway, Major Breakthrough on the Horizon."

"Oh, they've said that more than once!"

"In other words, the Ministry of Magic has not been able to start the official operation!"

"I bet they've been completely stumped!"

People don't quite believe the so-called breakthroughs reported in the newspapers, believing that they are all the Ministry of Magic fooling everyone.

"Are they going to let those people keep occupying Edinburg?"

"They probably can't do anything about the protective magic outside the castle!"

"The Department of Mysteries has been working on it for a week."

"Won't they bring Dumbledore over?"

Scott watched the door from time to time as he ate, and it wasn't long before Harry, Ron, and Hermione hurried into the auditorium.

Scott saw at a glance the red Q version of the little doll on Harry's school bag, which was a mini [Harry?] Potter], which was also Scott's gift to Harry.

Scott didn't look back, and without a sound, his magic had been connected to [Harry?] Potter] doll to convey his instructions.

From now on, as long as Harry talks about the keyword [Voldemort], [Harry?] Potter] doll will record his words.

And when Scott appears near him, the doll can retell those conversations to Scott.

Scott did it all quietly, without anyone noticing.

At this time, he noticed that his roommates around him also began to discuss the contents of today's newspaper.

"He's dead!" Roger said loudly.

"What's going on, Eddie." Scott asked the "gossip experts" around him.

"Oh, it's Peter Pettigrew, the Ministry of Magic has issued a notice that Peter Pettigrew has been confirmed dead in Azkaban." Eddie handed the newspaper to Scott.

"Oh?"

Scott reached for the newspaper.

There was only a brief announcement in the newspaper in the corner, and the text of the announcement announced Pettigrew's death without emotion.

"The cause of death was natural death?" Scott looked at this conclusion in amazement.

Eddie laughed and said, "I'm surprised, I thought he was being executed for a 'Dementor Kiss'." ”

Just then, the Weasley twins exclaimed loudly from the Gryffindor table next to them.

"Oh Merlin! Ron, your Spotted is dead! ”

"Poor little Rollo! You love it so much! ”

Immediately after, Ron yelled in annoyance, "Shut up! Fred! Shut up! George! ”

Scott put the newspaper aside and continued to eat.

Natural death?

Scott didn't believe that, preferring to believe that Snape had finally figured out how to kill Pettigrew.

Although Snape's attempt to kill Pettigrew was stopped by Dumbledore, Scott still felt that he might not give up.

And, of course, a Potions Master has the ability to make a wizard "die a natural death".

Of course, all this is just Scott's irresponsible conjecture.

A few more days passed, and the Ministry of Magic's recapture of Edinburgh never seemed to make real progress.

Harry's side didn't give Scott any feedback.

Maybe Voldemort still hasn't regained his strength?

On Saturday morning, Scott sat in the bustling stands, still thinking about it.

Also, Voldemort himself was just a remnant of his soul, like a lonely ghost, and had no power.

Now he is afraid that it is too late to avoid Medea, so how can he take the initiative to jump out before regaining his strength

Lady Hooch's whistle blows, and the Quidditch match begins.

Scott sat steadily in the midst of a cheering crowd and continued to think as he watched the players fly through the sky.

It seems that the down-and-out Dark Lord needs a helper.

After all, in the "original book", it was only after Pettigrew went to the Albanian forest to find Voldemort's remnant soul and helped him make a baby body that could be used as a temporary sustenance, that the Dark Lord regained some of his strength.

It's just that now that Pettigrew is dead, Scott thinks that what the Dark Lord needs now is his most loyal subordinate, Barty Jr.? Crouch.

Little Barty? Crouch is the director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation at the Ministry of Magic, Barty? Crouch's son.

This son is also Barty, who was the director of the Law Enforcement Division? The reason why Crouch failed to compete for the position of Minister of Magic in the first place.

A high-ranking official of the Ministry of Magic who tried many Death Eaters, and his own son turned out to be a Death Eater, which was a huge scandal.

And little Barty? Crouch was a very loyal Death Eater.

After Voldemort's defeat, in order to find the whereabouts of the Dark Lord, he and several Death Eaters used the Creature Curse to frantically torture the Longbottoms to find out the news, causing the two to be completely tortured and insane.

It is known that this crazy young man was sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban by his iron-faced and selfless father, and eventually died in prison.

But Scott, who knows a lot about the plot of the "original", knows even more.

Little Barty? Crouch didn't die, his mother saved him.

The mother begged her husband to swap herself with her sonβ€”

She transforms into little Barty through Polyjuice Potion and dies in Azkaban in his place, while the real Little Barty is taken home in the form of his mother using Polyjuice Potion.

After being released from prison, Barty Sr. was disappointed to find that his son was still an ardent supporter of Voldemort.

In the end, he had to confine his son to his home through the Imperius Curse, put him in an invisibility cloak, and put him in the care of house-elves.
