Chapter 197 Karkaroff (Add more)
Karkaroff hovered behind Snape's lectern for the rest of those two sessions.He seemed determined not to let Snape slip away after class.
Harry was eager to hear what Karkaroff had to say, so he deliberately knocked over the bottle of anteater bile when the bell rang in two minutes, so that he would have an excuse to squat behind the cauldron and wipe the floor with a mop when the other students were noisily heading for the door.
Schelling also stayed in the classroom. He motioned for Daphne to leave first with the others, then walked to Harry, and drew out his wand, "Clean and new!" The anteater bile on the ground disappeared without a trace in an instant, "Okay, Potter, get out of here!" Schelling told Harry to leave with his tone beyond doubt.Although Harry was somewhat reluctant, but he lost his excuse to stay, so he had no choice but to leave.
"Malfoy, what are you doing here?" Karkaroff demanded, noticing the movement Schelling and Harry were making.
"Professor Karkaroff, I think I have the right to hear what you want to say to our dean, so I deliberately dismissed Potter who wanted to eavesdrop on your conversation, and then stayed here." Sherin said bluntly. He was not afraid of Karkaroff at all. With his current fame, power and strength, there may be some people and forces that can make him afraid, but it will definitely not be Karkaroff.
Snape also spoke at this time, "Karkaroff, let him stay, he is right, he has the qualifications."
Karkaroff looked at Snape's gloomy but extremely serious face, then at Schelling, and suddenly seemed to understand something, he could only say: "Since you insist, okay!"
"What's so urgent?" Snape asked Karkaroff in a low voice.
"Look." Karkaroff lifted the left sleeve of his robe, revealing the mark of the Dark Demon on his arm. It was a skull with a long snake spouting out. At this moment, there were faint waves of magic power. "See? It's never been so obvious—"
Karkaroff's tone was disturbed and anxious, "You should also know what this means, right?"
"The mysterious man is coming back from the resurrection." Xie Lin said this sentence suddenly.
Karkaroff's face suddenly turned pale. Although he had already guessed in his heart, it still made him feel terrified to be told in person.Karkaroff's strength is actually not weak, and he is also a high-ranking existence among many Death Eaters. Otherwise, how could he be the principal of one of the three major magic schools in Europe.However, his character is greedy for life and afraid of death, and is very weak, so he can't face the fact that the mysterious man is about to return.
"You, how can you be so sure?" Karkaroff said with trembling lips.
"It's nothing difficult to guess," Sherin said eloquently. "When the Dark Mark appeared on the Quidditch World Cup, I already started to make people pay close attention to the information from all parties..."
"Among the many reports, there are two things that caught my attention," Schelling said. "The first thing is that in a small town in England, a Muggle named Bryce has disappeared. This Muggle is in charge of guarding the Riddle House..."
"A Muggle died? The Riddle House? What does this have to do with that person?" Karkaroff asked impatiently.
The corner of Xie Lin's mouth slightly raised, "Riddle...is that person's surname, and the Riddle Mansion is his hometown!"
Karkaroff swallowed, "And then? You said that two things caught your attention, so what's the second thing?"
Schelling knew that Karkaroff had already believed his words and was convinced of his intelligence capabilities, so he continued: "The second incident happened in Albania. You should know that there are rumors in many places that the mysterious man did not die after losing power, but hid in the Albanian jungle to survive, intending to wait for his loyal disciples to find him and help him make a comeback..."
"My information tells me that someone saw Peter Pettigrew, who was supposed to be dead, appearing there, and one night he got on-line with a female employee of the British Ministry of Magic, Bertha Jorkins. After the two left the hotel, they never showed up again, and Jorkins has also been declared a missing person by the Ministry of Magic."
"Based on the above two things, I think the most reasonable guess is that Peter Pettigrew is actually a Death Eater, and he appeared in Albania because he wanted to help his old master resurrect. The missing Jorkins and the Muggle named Bryce are probably part of the mystery man's plan to return."
Karkaroff was stunned when he heard that, these two missing persons were unknown people, what did the mysterious man want to kill them for?Don't get me wrong, it's not surprising that the mysterious people kill people, but to say that killing them can help the mysterious people resurrect is a bit nonsense.
Schelling looked at Karkaroff's face, how could he not know what he was thinking, he sneered, "Are you doubting my words?"
Karkaroff glanced at Snape vaguely before hesitatingly said: "I don't quite understand, how does that man's killing these two people help his plan of returning from resurrection?"
"Hey," Schelling shook his head, "I said, your imagination is too poor. Who is Jorkins? She is an employee of the Ministry of Magic. Isn't it surprising that she knows some valuable information? At least I think the information about the Triwizard Tournament that will be held at Hogwarts this year is quite useful."
"Ah!" Snape exclaimed, and he looked at Sherin knowingly, "You mean..."
"Wait a minute, why didn't I understand what you two are talking about?" Karkaroff looked at the two who were playing charades, and his heart was about to go crazy.
Schelling looked at Karkaroff with some contempt, as if looking at a grass-headed idiot, "It's come to this point, you still can't figure it out? How did you become the head of the school?" Seeing that Karkaroff's face turned livid, Schelling also knew the truth of accepting when he was good, so he withdrew his taunt, "Let me ask you, if a person has only one remnant soul left, how can he be resurrected?"
Karkaroff muttered to himself: "Seize the house? No, it won't last long, and it will be a matter of time... The Philosopher's Stone? I heard it has been destroyed... Then, there is only one last possibility..." He seemed to have thought of something, and his face suddenly became very solemn.
"Have you figured it out? It's a blood sacrifice ceremony. This ceremony requires the bones of the father, the flesh of the servant and the blood of the enemy." Sherin smiled and said lightly, "This is the cause of the death of the Muggle named Bryce. The father's bone has been obtained from the Riddle House, and the servant's meat can be obtained from Peter the dwarf. Then there is only—"
"Harry Potter!" Karkaroff immediately understood the whole point, and couldn't help exclaiming, "What the mysterious man wants is his blood!"
