Move the clock forward by a quarter of an hour.

Leaky Cauldron Bar.

There were four people standing in a secluded, enclosed room.

Exactly the partner that Bobin had in mind: Cook Selwyn, Amicus? Caro, Elon Rozier, Horresius Travers.

At this moment.

All four were wearing black robes with hoods, and four grimace masks on the bed next to them.

"Do you really want to do it during the day? Shouldn't it be safer at night? ”

"Safety at night is safety, but it cannot cause a sensation, after all, according to the owner's will, his return must cause a sufficient sensation."

"Actually, it's okay, after all, it's our own shop, we all know the furnishings and protective means, and the Aurors sent by the Ministry of Magic have all left."

"But there are guards at the two-fold magic shop opposite."

"And it's really going to make a fuss, there is no shortage of wizards with a sense of justice who will come forward to help, and besides, that old guy from Bobin has some strength......"

"Traverse, what exactly do you want to say?"

A slightly chubby middle-aged man who was stopped frowned: "I just want to ask, how much momentum do we need to make?" In this process, we need to be in control. ”

"Well, that's a problem." Selwyn nodded, "Perhaps, it's best not to affect the two-fold potion shop, from the perspective of the two sides opposing each other, as long as we don't affect them, they shouldn't do it." ”

"What about the goods?" Rozier couldn't help but speak, "I really have to give all the potions and raw materials to ......"

He didn't finish.

But everyone present understood what he meant.

After all......

What they were about to do was follow Voldemort's orders, detonate their shop, loot their goods, and hand them over to Voldemort.

If all rolled away.

They will lose a lot this time! It can even be said that the whole family will be broken.

But......

The reward that Voldemort promised was too tempting.

Merlin's beard!

That's the elixir of life!

As long as they do what Voldemort says, then after success, they will receive the elixir of life from Voldemort's reward - they don't doubt it at all, because everyone knows that Voldemort has obtained the Philosopher's Stone, as long as he wants, he can make as many elixirs as he wants, for others it is hard to find, but for Voldemort this is just a small thing.

Theoretically, it's better for everyone to take what they need.

But.

Turning in all the potions still makes them feel pain.

Eventually, after a moment of silence.

Selwyn asked rhetorically, "Rozier, you mean ......"

"We've got to leave some of it." Rozier said, "When we attacked, we had to loot all the potions and raw materials, but I remember that there were some perfect potions and rare materials in them, maybe we could stay, after all, the master doesn't know how many we have." ”

As soon as this remark came out.

Caro and Travers' eyes lit up: "It's a great idea!" , Selwyn, this allows us to stop the loss, what do you say? ”

"Yes." Selwyn nodded, "Alright, it's time for us to do it." ”

Crash.

He put on his mask.

The others also wore masks, and each one put on their own invisibility cloaks.

Just before leaving.

Caro still said, "What if, I mean if, if one of us gets caught?" ”

The other three were stunned.

But immediately, Selwyn replied, "First of all, we will never have an accident, and secondly, even if something happens, hehe, do you think we will donate so many Galleons to Fudge and the Ministry of Magic for nothing?" After receiving the money, he has to do something, shorten the sentence, and entertain ......"

"Okay, no problem, let's go."

Crunch –

The door opened, and the four invisible men walked through the brick walls of the patio and headed straight for the Potions Alliance store of the pure-blood family, where a shattering charm struck the weak point of protection behind it.

Rumble!

An explosion rang out throughout Diagon Alley......

……

"It's exploded, everyone be careful!"

"It's the Potions Alliance store, it's over, it's definitely Voldemort's attack."

"Run......"

"It's the sign of the Death Eaters, the centaur prophecy has come true!"

"Hurry up and inform the Ministry of Magic, bastard, why didn't they hold on for a few more days, the Aurors took it all back, now ......"

A group of wizards who were queuing up to buy medicine at the entrance of the two-fold magic medicine store were startled.

Suddenly there was confusion.

Some ran to the patio, some ran to both sides, and some swarmed to get into the two-fold magic shop, but fortunately, there were guards to maintain order, and there were no casualties for the time being.

However.

It's still good to be a two-fold magic shop.

Bobin's side.

But he was dumbfounded, staring blankly at his own store with billowing black smoke, and the skull sign with a snake's head rising above the store.

"No, it can't be, it's not true, it must be a hallucination......"

Bobin muttered.

The body stiffened.

Don't know what to do.

But Barty Crouch beside him reacted instantly, and immediately pushed him: "What are you still doing?" The Death Eaters are attacking your store, so don't hurry up and resist! Follow me......"

Let's talk about it.

Barty rushed over first, swinging the Cleanup Charm and Flying Charm in his hand to clear the obstacles in front of him, and then rushed straight into the store.

See this scene.

Bobin finally reacted, and he rushed over, pulled out his wand, and prepared to do it.

But—

The moment he entered the store.

Look at the unconscious waiters, and the swept away cupboards, containers, and potions and potion materials...... Even some of the potion materials that had been hanging from the ceiling were gone.

"Nope! How can I explain to Selwyn and them, I, my potion......"

He froze again.

"Useless stuff!" Barty gave him a disgusted look, waved his wand, and a shallow fluorescent footprint appeared in front of him, and he followed.

Then I soon saw a black-robed man rushing up from the basement of the store: "-"Except for your weapon""

Sou!

Barty's strength is still on the line.

Almost instantaneously.

The red light hit the black-robed man, causing the wand in the opponent's hand to fly out.

This scene.

The black-robed man trembled with fright, shrunk back, and returned to the basement, and there was another messy footstep in the basement, apparently there were still people inside.

Instead of rushing blindly, Barty pointed his wand at the basement, crouching like a tiger over his prey.

However.

After a while.

He didn't see any more black-robed people coming out of it, but Bobin in the back finally reacted, and saw that the entrance to the basement was still open, and suddenly rushed forward: "My baby, there must be no problems in the basement——"

"Don't go over!" Barty reached out and grabbed him.

It's a pity I didn't catch it.

Bobin was unusually nimble when it came to his belongings, easily dodging them, and heading straight for the basement.

But not waiting for him to enter.

He just bumped into something out of thin air.

Boom!

There was a dull thud, and Bobin bounced off and fell to the ground.

Meanwhile.

In front of him, a figure appeared out of thin air, but it was a black-robed man, wearing an invisibility cloak, who was running out of the basement, only to be hit by Bobin, and at this time his body was tilted sideways, revealing it.

"Bastard!" The black-robed man Zhou scolded, and a green light was directed at Barty, and then continued to run out.

Syllable!

Barty also struck with a flash of light.

Catch the green light.

Immediately after, he took advantage of the black-robed man's running out, and a precise stun spell struck him.

Bang!

The man in black shuddered.

Crashed to the ground.

"Bobin, if you still want your belongings, grab him! Catch it! Barty pulled Bobin up hard, and then continued to chase in the direction the black-robed man had left.

Merely......

The black-robed men were obviously wearing invisibility cloaks.

After going out, it was Diagon Alley, but in Diagon Alley, Barty couldn't find the black-robed man, he chased straight to the Leaky Cauldron Bar, asked if the remaining people there had seen the black-robed man, and after getting a negative answer, he went out to the street to have a look.

Ultimately.

He returned in vain.

Although the whole process did not take long, Barty's hair and clothes were already messy, and his straight face was serious and depressed, looking like a "lost dog".

However.

He had just arrived at the door of the Bobin store.

There was immediately a burst of cheers:

"Merlin's beard! Mr. Barty Crouch has caught a Death Eater with his own hands! ”

"Crouch is a hero!"

"He was single-handed......

"Look, who this Death Eater is, you must not let him go!"

"Let me take a picture of the front......

But a group of wizards who did not run away saw that there was silence here, and finally approached boldly, and finally saw the black-robed man who had been thrown down amid the exclamation of a reporter.

And just right.

Barty needs to take the Death Eater to the Ministry of Magic for trial.

So, the picture of Barty grabbing the Death Eater was taken......

……

Ministry of Magic.

Office of the Minister.

On a rare idle day, Cornelius Fudge sat in his boss's chair reading a book with a steaming pot of black tea brewed next to him.

】

And at the price of its leisure.

His assistant, however, was burying his head in sorting through the letters.

- Letters from all over the UK to the Minister's Office, the Logistics Department has been classified, and at this time, it is necessary to read it.

But these letters.

From Fudge's point of view, a lot of it was Chen Sesame and rotten grain, and he didn't want to pay attention to it at all.

So it's usually the assistant who helps me look at it, and I occasionally ask.

Like now.

Interesting after reading a chapter.

Fudge sipped black tea as he looked through the open door and asked the assistant's office, "How did you read the letter?" What's in it? ”

"Most of them are about centaur prophecies, since the centaur prophecy attracted attention, some wizards have also begun to say that they have also received some prophecies in order to become famous, such as this one, it is the goblin prophecy conveyed to him by the goblins in his garden, and that, the mermaid's prophecy ......" The assistant hurriedly said.

"These guys, they haven't grown up for so many years." Fudge pouted, "Leave them alone, what else?" ”

"And then there's the issue of the treatment of prophecy and ......," the assistant paused, as if peeking at Fudge's expression, "and the appointment of Director Barty Crouch. ”

Fudge put the teacup down, "Oh? What do they recommend? ”

Many people expressed their dissatisfaction, believing that the Ministry of Magic should take the prophecy more seriously, after all, the last time the prophecy made such a big fuss was about the savior Harry Potter...... They believe that the Ministry of Magic should not remove the Aurors of the Potions Alliance store, but should send more people to prolong the time of guarding, so as to prevent the mysterious people from really attacking the pharmacy and using the potions inside to make a comeback......" The assistant explained this in detail, and then briefly Bhatty's content, "As for Director Crouch, they mentioned it, saying that he conveyed this prophecy, and it was a credit, and he should be reinstated......"

"Think beautifully!" Fudge snorted coldly, "He'll honestly retire in the centaur office!" As for sending more people, these stupid fools, what do you think the Aurors are? Is it a goblin in the garden? Every Auror is an elite member of the Ministry of Magic, how can he sacrifice his time to guard an indifferent store all the time? ”

"That's what the minister said." The assistant hurriedly made a statement.

Only then did Fudge pick up the black tea again.

It's just that before drinking, he asked again: "Crouch took a leave of absence today?" ”

"Yes."

"Is there any reason?" "If the reason is not sufficient, tell him that if the leave is not approved, he will be counted as absent from work today." ”

"The reason from the logistics department is......" the assistant flipped through the papers, "it is that he is not worried about the prophecy of the centaurs, and seeing that the Aurors have withdrawn, he wants to go over to patrol." ”

"Patrol? Hahaha! Fudge laughed, "Forget it, ignore him, he can patrol if he wants, and that Bobin doesn't seem to let the Aurors in, so he Crouch will be kept out of the door?" ”

The assistant also "laughed" twice: "Presumably it should be." ”

"Alright, you're busy with your work."

Fudge stopped his desire to speak, leaned back in his chair, and hummed an opera: "It's a good day—"

The words did not fall.

There was a banging knock on the door.

The next moment.

Without waiting for the assistant to open the door, Scrimgeour, the director of the Auror Office, pushed the door in by himself: "Minister, something is wrong!" ”

"What's the matter?" Fudge's heart thumped, "Good things or bad things? ”

"Both." Scrimgeour looked at the chubby Fudge who was enjoying life and sighed, "The bad news is that the Potions Alliance store of the pureblood family has been attacked by Death Eaters!" ”

Fudge's face was ugly, thinking of what the assistant said just now that Barty had taken leave to guard the store, and subconsciously asked, "What about the good news?" Something happened to Crouch? ”

"Uh......"

Scrimgeour was stunned for a moment: "Sort of, the good news is Crouch...... Director, caught a Death Eater! This Death Eater is...... Cook Selwyn! ”

What?

Fudge was shocked and subconsciously looked at his small vault......

None of them.

It's just that he couldn't be more familiar with this name, in the process of his competition for the Minister of Magic, this person has given a lot of financial support, even after he took office, this money and power transaction has not ended.

And at the moment the man was arrested.

His captors are still his political enemies - can that be called good news?
