New Professor at Hogwarts

Chapter 86 The identity of the mysterious red-haired wizard

"Do you know who it is, Xia Ran?" Sirius' eyes suddenly lit up and he asked hurriedly.

"Yes, it's probably him. He is indeed very powerful, not weak at all!" Xia Ran clapped her hands, stood up quickly, and looked for something on the table.

"Yes!"

"What?" Sirius was confused by his series of actions.

Xia Ran opened yesterday afternoon's "Daily Prophet", pointed to a piece of news and said, "Sirius, look at this piece of news."

"A senior official of the Ministry of Magic - said to be a leader of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation - took a sick leave..." Sirius frowned and said, "What does this have to do with it? Do you think he took a sick leave just to Sneaking into Hogwarts in disguise? Xia Ran, this is too... far-fetched?!"

"Who is the director of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department?" Xia Ran asked.

"Let me think about it." Sirius thought for a while and said uncertainly: "It should be Barty Crouch. I have been in prison for more than ten years. I have only been released for a few months, and I don't know much about these things. I’m concerned about it, so I don’t know very well.”

"Then who is Barty Crouch's son?" Xia Ran asked again.

Sirius rolled his eyes and said, "Barty Crouch Jr., who else could it be?"

He was suddenly startled and looked at Xia Ran suspiciously. Seeing the determined look on his face, he couldn't help but shake his head and said with a smile: "Xia Ran, do you think the red-haired wizard is Barty Crouch Jr. in disguise?"

"That's right, it's him!" Xia Ran insisted, and then she calmed down and said, "Of course, I'm not 100% sure, but I'm still 70% sure."

"Xiaran, you guessed it wrong." Sirius smiled, "I recognize Barty Crouch Jr., he is indeed a Death Eater - yes, even his father Barty Crouch is especially He hated dark wizards and risked his life for it. Although he did not die in the end and survived - but not long after Barty Crouch Jr. was captured and sent to Azkaban Prison, he died due to being unable to resist the spirit of the spirit. He died due to his daily breathing. I saw with my own eyes that they took away his body, there is no way it is false!"

Sirius swore steadfastly, but when he mentioned the Dementors, his expression seemed a little unnatural.

Xia Ran smiled, Sirius would not know that the person who died in Azkaban Prison was not Barty Crouch Jr., but his mother, who died in place of her son.

This matter is also because Xia Ran has read the entire series of Harry Potter books, otherwise he would not know the truth behind it.

Barty Crouch, the current director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, has focused his life on combating black magic, yearning for power and high status, and neglecting to teach his son, which led Barty Crouch Jr. to embark on an evil path and become He became a Death Eater and was extremely loyal to Voldemort.

When Voldemort was completely destroyed by Lily Evans' ancient magic - relying on several of his Horcruxes to survive - Barty Crouch Jr., Sirius's cousin Bellatrix , and Bellatrix's husband Lestrange, they jointly captured Neville's parents and continuously applied the Cruciatus Curse to torture Voldemort's whereabouts. The Longbottoms went crazy because of this.

Later, the three of them were tried and imprisoned respectively. The fact that Barty Crouch Jr. became a Death Eater gave Barty Crouch a very big blow, not as a psychological blow to his father, but as a magician. A high-ranking official in the ministry has always been on the front line against black magic, but his son turned out to be a dark wizard?

People began to question whether Barty Crouch had fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, and the answer was of course no.

In the end, Barty Crouch, the former Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, who had great hopes of becoming the Minister of Magic, was eliminated and was transferred to the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation as Director, but the Department of Magical Law Enforcement is the third department in the Ministry of Magic. For a large part, this is actually a relegation.

Cornelius Fudge, the former Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters, took over as Minister of Magic.

Barty Crouch Jr. was imprisoned in Azkaban. His mother was very sad and sad, and she didn't have much time left and was about to go to the grave. She asked her husband, who was the director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, to use A chance visit to prison made him switch with his son in prison.

Although Barty Crouch only had power in his eyes and did not like his son, he did love his wife deeply, and he finally agreed to his wife's plan.

This plan is feasible because dementors are blind, they can't see people and can only smell a healthy person and a dying person entering the Azkaban prison, and a healthy person and a dying person Left prison again.

Barty Crouch Jr.'s mother took the form of her son through Polyjuice Potion and remained in prison until her death. She did not forget to drink the Polyjuice Potion until her death to prevent the plan from being exposed. In the end, his mother died and was buried outside Azkaban Prison.

After Barty Crouch Jr. was brought home, he lived under an invisibility cloak and was controlled by his father, Barty Crouch, with the Imperius Curse. He was not allowed to go out to avoid being seen and leaked by outsiders. The sound of wind.

However, as Barty Crouch Jr.'s health gradually recovered, and as time passed, he gradually began to gain the strength to resist the Imperius Curse, and finally escaped as he wished. However, in the original time and space, this was the beginning of Harry's fourth grade. What happened during the previous summer vacation was clearly in the first semester of Harry's third year. Normally, he would not be able to break free from the control of the Imperius Curse.

However, with Xia Ran's intervention, what happened in Harry's second grade has changed, and one more of Voldemort's Horcruxes, namely Marvolo Gaunt's ring, was destroyed. This may have led to the subsequent The reason for the change in the plot is that Barty Crouch Jr. escaped early, and perhaps he went to Albania to retrieve Voldemort - this time Peter Pettigrew was not needed - the plot has begun to go on a rampage!

Thinking of this, Xia Ran's head suddenly felt big, so his advantage in predicting the plot could not be reflected.

Of course, Xia Ran might have guessed wrong. After all, there were many Death Eaters who escaped the law.

But there were only a few such powerful wizards in the wizarding world. Every one of them was a carrot and a trap. He knew that the only one who was suspected was Barty Crouch Jr.

This man is indeed very powerful. In the original time and space, he only combined with Peter Pettigrew to subdue Alastor Moody. He was a powerful wizard at least level 6, and the second most powerful person in the Order of the Phoenix after Dumbledore. , Professor McGonagall, Snape and others are no match for Moody in terms of strength alone.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Barty Crouch Jr. can defeat Sirius.

"Because I once visited the old home of the Crouch family and discovered a secret about Barty Crouch. It was his wife who died in Azkaban, dying in place of his son, and his son was controlled in Azkaban. At home." Xia Ran told a lie, and the unlucky Bertha Jorkins in the original time and space - an employee of the Ministry of Magic, a witch who died after being tortured by Voldemort to find out all the secrets in the Albanian forest - was discovered in this way. Barty Crouch's Secret.

"Really?" Sirius was still doubtful.

Xia Ran brushed off the matter and said: "We will discuss this matter later. The most important thing now is to inform Dumbledore, and I have also thought of a way to clean up your grievances."

"Really?!" Sirius' eyes suddenly lit up.
