242. Barty Crouch who appeared in Azkaban

Azkaban

With the arrival of a small boat, several Aurors escort a dejected wizard to the island.

Sirius's case is over, and he is cleared, and Peter Pettigrew, who has really betrayed the Potters, will naturally be imprisoned in Azkaban to receive the punishment he deserved twelve years ago.

The Aurors opened a cell, threw him in, and left without looking back.

He was locked up in the cell where Sirius was located.

The first thing he did when he was put in the cell, he curled up his body together and tried to make his body clump together.

He was trying to hide himself, he didn't want the Dementors to come running over and give him a kiss.

Although this probability is very low, but. What if.

He didn't want to die.

Even in Azkaban, he didn't want to die.

He had a chance, and he had a chance to escape, because he knew how Sirius had escaped from prison.

Animagus.

While it is impossible to cast spells without a wand in his hand, Animagus' transformation is unlimited.

The Ministry of Magic knew he would Animagus but didn't do anything about it.

Perhaps, in their opinion, Sirius's Animagus is a dog, so he can escape from prison, and Peter Pettigrew's Animagus is a mouse, so he can't escape

Don't expect the current Ministry of Magic to do anything, under the leadership of Minister Fudge, the Ministry of Magic in England is no longer the Ministry of Magic it used to be.

They even thought that the Dementors were good enough to keep an eye on the prisoners of Azkaban.

Dementors have no brains, they are filled with endless negative emotions, they are naturally weak in animal feelings, and even if they know how Sirius escaped, there is no way to defend against them.

The most crucial point is that both Animagus and Peter Pettigrew will be. This is all thanks to his friends at Hogwarts, who were part of the foursome, and taught him magic as long as they could.

Just give him a wand and he'll have a chance.

"Hahaha, look. The new guy is really like a poor mouse. ”

Crazy laughter sounded in the midst of madness.

It seems to be very close to Peter.

If you stay in Azkaban for a long time, normal people will become neurotic, or there are no normal people in Azkaban.

Peter Pettigrew ignored the man, still lying quietly on the ground, curled up in a clump and hiding in a corner.

The owner of the maniacal laughter saw that Peter did not react, and soon lost interest.

Peter lay still, motionless except when he was eating, he was conserving his strength, he didn't want to do anything superfluous.

He's waiting for an opportunity. No matter how long it takes. He will catch as soon as he appears.

Waiting is what Peter Pettigrew does best.

He was able to disguise himself in the Weasley family for more than twelve years without being detected, thanks to this perseverance

If he could put this tenacity elsewhere, maybe he would have a different life, and maybe he would have become a great wizard on the front line of the fight against the Death Eaters.

It's just that there aren't that many 'maybes' in this world.

I don't know how long it has been, Azkaban has been covered in clouds all day long, day and night have passed, maybe a month has passed, maybe a year has passed, maybe only a week has passed, and a visitor has appeared in Azkaban prison again, it is a middle-aged wizard with a grim face.

He had short, unkempt gray hair, a cold gaze, and a sparse mustache on his lips.

"Mr. Barty Crouch"

Peter heard others call him by that name.

He walked to Peter Pettigrew's cell, stopped, looked straight at Peter inside, didn't speak, just stopped for a moment and left.

That night, Peter was given a wand.

Hogwarts, a meeting room in Slytherin.

Dudley and other members of the disciplinary team are gathering here.

"Brother D, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that this kind of thing can really be used to communicate?"

Ron pointed to the phone bug on the table, which was constantly gnawing corn, and said uncertainly.

This phone bug has been transformed.

"I mean, it's unbelievable that a slug with a shell can do the same thing as an owl."

Hearing Ron talking bad about himself, the phone bug stopped eating corn and spat at him angrily, Ron was disgusted and quickly dodged.

"It's called a phone bug!"

Before Dudley could speak, Hermione said, "Ron, it's strange that wizards still use owls to deliver letters. ”

"You know what? At a time when you were still using the primitive method of biological communication, what you call 'Muggles' had already invented tools that could be used to converse directly thousands of miles away. ”

"Of course I don't mean to belittle owls, but they are really slow to communicate."

"Cool!" Ron exclaimed, "What's that?" I think my dad would love it. ”

"Telephone."

Unexpectedly, it was Draco who answered Ron, the pure-blood wizard who logically despised and rejected ordinary people the most.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were turned to him, Draco shrugged his shoulders, with a really like this expression, and briefly introduced: "This is not unusual, we Malfoy clan also know a lot of nobles among ordinary people, Malfoy Manor has been registered with the Queen of England, and there is a corresponding title." ”

"It's not just you Weasleys, Mr. Rob. In fact, many pure-blood wizards have some connection, but they don't make any announcements. ”

Draco was telling the truth, but it was one thing to be connected, and quite another to be valued.

Even the Malfoy family had taken it seriously because Draco had learned a lot of information from ordinary people from Dudley.

"Malfoy, are you looking for trouble?"

Hearing that his name was being called wrong again, Ron was anxious again.

"Come on, I'll give you a hand."

"That's the end of the gossip."

Dudley interrupted the bickering between the two, took out another phone bug, and put it in front of Ron: "Is it useful or not, wouldn't you know if you try it yourself?" ”

"You and Draco each take a phone bug and go to the two rooms apart."

A moment later, Ron pushed open the door with a red glow.

"Brother D, it's really useful!"

Ron excitedly held up the phone bug.

"It's not just Malfoy's voice in it, it's amazing that it can even mimic the tone and demeanor."

"How, exactly? Spells? Or the Transfiguration Charm? ”

Draco followed, and while he was also excited, he was much calmer than Ron.

Dudley didn't answer Ron, and took out a few more phone bugs that had already been made: "There is no way to produce phone bugs in large quantities at the moment, but the members of the discipline team can each have one, remember to feed them regularly, and don't let them starve to death." ”

"If there's something, we'll use the phone bug to get in touch."
