Chapter 350

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

"We went back to the tent," Crouch Jr. said, "and then we heard the voices of the Death Eaters. Those who have not been in Azkaban, who have never suffered for my master, have betrayed him. They weren't as involuntary as I was, and they were free to go and find him, but they weren't. They only play tricks on Muggles. Their voices woke me up. For the first time in years, my mind was so clear. I was so angry that I took my wand and wanted to teach these disloyal people a lesson. My father wasn't in the tent, he went to rescue the Muggles. Twinkle was scared to see me so angry. She used her magic to tie me to her. She dragged me out of the tent and into the woods away from the Death Eaters. I wanted to stop her, I wanted to go back to camp. I want the Death Eaters to see what loyalty to the Dark Lord is, and punish them for their disloyalty. I used my stolen wand to launch the Dark Mark into the air. "

Harry looked angrily at little Barty on the bed, he was surrounded by a circle of wizards from the Ministry of Magic, and if it wasn't for Ron's father, he would have been taken away by them.

"The wizards from the Ministry of Magic are here and cast stun spells everywhere. A spell shot into the woods where Twinkle and I stood, breaking the bond between us, and we both were knocked unconscious. "

"When Twinkle was discovered, my father knew I must be nearby. He searched the bushes where Twinkle was, and found me lying there. He waited until the rest of the Ministry of Magic had left the woods, then recast the Imperius Curse on me and brought me home. He chased Sparkle away because she didn't take a fancy to me and got me the wand, almost letting me run away. "

Harry was glad Hermione wasn't here, otherwise she would have been babbling about house-elves again, and Harry remembered Hermione saying that the house-elf named Twilight was now in the Hogwarts kitchen.

"And then, how did you break free from your father's Imperius curse?" Moody looked at Barty very calmly, as if someone else had been tortured before.

"Now it's just my father and I in the house. Afterward...... Later......" Little Crouch shook his head with a perverted smile on his face, "My master has come looking for me!"

Harry looked at Barty Jr. in horror, Voldemort! He was able to move around, Harry felt that his memory was passable, at least better than Neville's, he clearly remembered that Voldemort was still attached to other people's bodies in the first grade, did he get a new servant? Or did he get a new body?

Thankfully, Barty Jr. answered Harry's question right away.

"One night, he came to my house with the tail of the worm in his arms. My master learned that I was alive. He caught Bertha Joggins in Albania. He tortured her and made her tell a lot of things. She told him about the Triwizard Tournament and told them that the old Auror Moody was going to teach at Hogwarts. The master continued to torture her until she broke the Oblivion Curse cast by my father. Bertha told him that I had escaped from Azkaban and that my father had locked me up at home and would not let me go to my master. Thus my master knew that I was still his faithful servant—perhaps the most faithful of all. Based on the information provided by Bertha, my master came up with a plan. He needed me, and when it was nearly midnight he came to me, and it was my father who opened the door. "

The smile on Crouch's face grew even stronger, as if recalling the happiest time of his life. What could be more proud of a Death Eater like Barty Jr. than Voldemort's own rescue?

"Unknowingly, my father was cast a soul-snatching curse by my master. Now it's his turn to be controlled. The master forced him to work as usual, as if nothing had happened. I was released, awakened, restored to my true nature, and regained a vitality I hadn't had in years. Little Barty licked her lips excitedly.

"What does Voldemort want you to do?" Dumbledore asked bluntly.

Little Barty suddenly showed an angry expression, but it was a flash, and under the effect of the truth elixir, he could not show that expression and speak in a calm tone.

"He asked me if I was willing to risk everything for him. Of course I am willing to serve him, and it is my dream and my greatest wish to prove to him my loyalty. He told me that he needed to install a cronie at Hogwarts and coach Harry Potter in Triwizard Tournament, and that he needed to do it unnoticed. To spy on Harry Potter, to make sure he gets the Triwizard Cup, to steal the trophy for a portkey, so that the first person to catch it can be brought to my master, but first-"

"You need Alasto. Something seemed to be overflowing from Dumbledore's blue eyes, but his voice remained calm.

"That's right," said little Barty, with the flesh of his cheek twitching, "the master has sent another of his servants to assist me. The two of us subdued Moody. "

"Is that Peter?" Dumbledore asked.

"No, it's the master's new servant. Barty Jr.'s gasp was a little loud, and it seemed that he didn't want to talk about it.

"Is his name Christopher?" Solim suddenly snapped, "Christopher Selwyn?"

"That's right, a Selwyn. Little Barty's neck twitched nervously.

Several people around Solim looked at Solim in surprise, and Selwyn ...... Isn't that a relative who is related to Solim by blood?

Ignoring the strange or scrutinizing gazes of the others, Solim then asked, "What exactly is he doing, is he in charge of answering and cooperating with your actions?"

"I don't know, he was given another task by his master after subduing Moody with me. "

Solim frowned, if Peter was alone, Crouch's escape could be explained, after all, Peter was not a powerful wizard, but Christopher was different, if he was also by Voldemort's side, it would be almost impossible for Crouch to escape. In other words, he was not with Voldemort, or most of the time, but the available information could already confirm that this wizard with the same surname Selwyn had defected to Voldemort, so what would Voldemort ask him to do? Could Fudge's change of attitude have anything to do with this? And his defection to Voldemort is a very secret thing, at least the vast majority of people don't know, that is, he can appear in public, and Selwyn will not release the shameful news that he has defected to Voldemort, in this case, the role of Selwyn's surname is very great.

Solim shook his head, ready to look back and think about it, the occasion was clearly not suitable for the moment.
