Ch 631-635
This is also OK?
Ivan looked at Fred and Angelina, who were so tired of being together, very dubiously, wondering if it was Fred deliberately pretending to advertise their new charging items.
Watching this scene, Harry was a little moved. One Gallon didn't seem to be very expensive...
After dinner, several people returned to the Gryffindor lounge together.
When passing through a corridor, Ivan remembered that he still had to practice sanctuary with Luna today, and said to the two of them.
"Harry, Hermione, you should go back first, I think of something else! Go back to the bedroom later."
Hermione looked at Ivan's leaving back, looked at Harry thoughtfully, and asked. "Is Ivan busy these days?"
"I don't know, but sometimes I can't find him in the evening..." Harry shook his head and said casually.
...
"Patient mind!"
On the eighth floor, in a quiet classroom, Ivan waved his magic wand again, and his thoughts flooded into Luna's mind.
The scene constructed in memory this time is in Ravenclaw's lounge.
Ivan silently witnessed several Ravenclaw girls teasing Luna, pulling out the airship Li she had worked so hard to plant and throwing it in the ground, or hiding her favorite piece of clothing...
Although they were all trivial things, they appeared very frequently in memory. Ivan accumulated anger. After he withdrew from the memory, he asked angrily.
"Have they always treated you this way?"
"It's not always the case, at least this year they rarely tease me." Luna shook her head, and then looked at Ivan lightly. "I think they will figure it out in a while!"
Ivan sighed, not knowing how to evaluate Luna's innocent thoughts, but on the surface he still echoed the girl's mind and spoke.
"Well, I believe they will too!"
He decided to find a time to have a good talk with Luna's roommates and let them reflect on.
After making the decision secretly, seeing that it was not too early, Ivan put out the idea of continuing to practice magic, and left this empty classroom with Luna.
Along the way, Ivan opened the system bar to check the progress of the magic practice. With the help of Luna, his mind of panic has successfully reached the fifth level.
Because of this, when he used this magic on Luna in recent days, the growth of his proficiency has been slower and slower.
Thinking of this, Ivan suggested that Luna could try to fight against herself in the next practice magic.
If you are too obedient, it will be difficult to increase your proficiency in mindfulness.
"These are my notes for studying Occlumency, you can take a look if you have time." Ivan took out a thick book from the pocket of the extended curse and handed it to Luna.
Luna stretched out her hand and took it. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Ivan who was opposite suddenly turned around and looked towards the end of the corridor.
"What's wrong?" Luna asked strangely, and she also turned her gaze, but she didn't see anything.
"It seemed that someone was following us..." Ivan said uncertainly.
Will it be Crouch? Ivan suddenly thought of this possibility, and the one who was most likely to follow him was the internal response sent by Voldemort.
"Do you know who it is?"
Luna's ethereal voice sounded in the corridor again.
"No, it's not clear for the time being. Anyway, let's meet in another place in the future!" Ivan said cautiously, although in his opinion Voldemort should not do anything to reveal his identity at will before he achieves his goal, but he must not do anything to reveal his identity. Not guarding.
Luna nodded and nodded.
"Also, thank you for these few days..." Ivan looked at Luna again, and said with some embarrassment.
"It's fine if you can help, aren't we friends?" Luna said quietly.
"En, yes!" Ivan laughed.
Saying goodbye to Luna, Ivan walked alone in the aisle of the castle, taking out the map of the spot to check it with a solemn expression.
——At this time, Crouch is in the employee's office, while Moody's is near the auditorium. Calculated according to time, they should not be tracking him.
Of course, it does not rule out that Crouch slipped back to his office in just a few tens of seconds through a special secret passage.
Then Ivan glanced at other places in the castle, there was no suspicious name, so he had to give up, put away the map of the live spot, and temporarily left the matter behind. He still had time to look at it today. Look at Norbert.
...
Forbidden forest, in the fire dragon paddock.
Charlie, who had just fed the fire dragons a dinner, saw Ivan walking towards this side from the entrance of the paddock before he had a good rest.
He wiped the sweat from his head and greeted him with a big smile.
"Ivan, why do you come here free? Will you come to see Norbert?" Charlie said with a smile.
"Well, you can say the same." Ivan replied casually, and then solemnly asked. "By the way, Charlie, when are you planning to ship these dragons back?"
"After a while, these big guys are not easy to handle. Every long flight with them is a troublesome job. When I came this time, I was almost spotted by Muggles! So we were going to magic The Ministry applies for a transnational door key so that they can be sent directly to Romania!"
Charlie talked eloquently, and by the way Ivan complained that this kind of transnational transmission needs to go through layers of approval, and it is estimated that it will take more than a month to send these dragons away.
Ivan nodded and sighed secretly. One of the prerequisites for fusion of blood is that he must have fresh blood, and he cannot be separated for more than three days.
This is why he is eager to find Charlie to confirm when they will leave.
Now it seems that time will be a bit more abundant than he imagined.
"Charlie, when you leave, remember to let me know in advance. I want to say goodbye to Norbert." Ivan looked at Charlie and begged.
"No problem~www.mtlnovel.com~ Don't worry..." Charlie agreed without hesitation, after all, this is not a violation of the rules.
"Go, I'll take you to see Norbert now!" Charlie took Ivan's arm and walked towards the side of the paddock, his mouth didn't stop for a moment, and excitedly said that Ivan was in the paddock yesterday. Wonderful performance.
"Do you know? I used to dream of fighting a fire dragon head-on. In this year's Top Three Cup, you did what I wanted to do the most." Charlie gestured excitedly with his hands, extremely excited.
Then Charlie lowered his voice as if thinking of something again, and said tentatively. "Of course, I think Norbert also worked very well together, and you two acted very well!"
"You know?" Ivan raised an eyebrow and asked in surprise.
"I'm a professional researcher on dragons..." Charlie shrugged and said with a smile. "After that game, I checked Norbert's injury and found that it only suffered some skin injuries. You must know that such an attack can't bring down a dragon."
"But you don't have to worry, I helped you fool it, and only I know your relationship with Norbert! No one else will doubt it..."
Thanks, Charlie! "Ivan said gratefully.
When he designed the battle before, he was only concerned about how to fight more excitingly, trying not to hurt Norbert, but ignored that some professionals could analyze whether they were acting from Norbert's injury.
"Ha... thank you no need, but I saw a wonderful performance for free, and with this appearance, I think Norbert will be famous in the future!" Charlie laughed, and then continued with emotion.
"Harry also performed very well. Firebolt and Eye Curse. I can see that you have planned well. I was a little worried before that George and Ron would not be able to tell you the specifics of the first game in time... "
"George? Ron?" Ivan looked at Charlie in surprise.
"What? Didn't you get the news from them?" Charlie was also a little surprised.
"No, Harry and I have been following Hagrid that day, so we saw these dragons!" Ivan explained.
"Well, it seems that I am too worried!" Charlie smiled bitterly, and then talked to Ivan about the reason.
He saw Hagrid bringing Maxim to the paddock to watch the dragon that day. He was worried that this would be unfair to the warriors of Hogwarts, so he secretly told George and Ron them, hoping that they would be responsible for the report, lest Ivan and Harry was unprepared for the first game, and he was inferior in intelligence.
No wonder... Ivan recalled for a moment. He remembered that the day before the game, George and Fred had come in very diligently and asked if they were ready for the game.
Ron also spent most of the night waiting for himself and Harry in the dormitory without sleeping, but actually he wanted to talk about the fire dragon's information?
"Okay, let's not talk about it. Anyway, you can pass the first level smoothly! Let's go and see Norbert, it's ahead." Charlie pointed to the front and said.
Ivan looked towards Charlie's direction. Although there was still some distance away, he still saw Norbert's huge body at a glance.
It has to be said that fire dragons are really deterrents. Adult dragons are often more than 15 meters in length. Some female fire dragons can even grow to 20 meters. The mouth is full of sharp fangs and the back is hideous. The thorn is even more daunting.
It's just that this mighty image is completely destroyed by Norbert. It will be struggling to compete with a tall pine tree, constantly hitting the tree with its forelimbs and body, seeming to want to knock it down, surrounded by a circle of wooden fences. It's even more messy, and it's obvious that it's usually harmed by it.
Charlie had a headache when he saw this scene. Compared with other dragons, Noble was so active. As long as he stayed in one place for a few hours, it would be impossible to find a good thing nearby.
Ivan was also very speechless. Looking at Norbert was like looking at a large husky. It took a while to calm it down, stop it from harming those fences, and stay in place obediently.
Then Ivan invited Dobby again and served a barbecue banquet that had been prepared long ago.
Norbert has helped so much before, of course he must be treated well.
Ivan even feeds them personally, sprinkling the roasted rabbits and beef legs with spices, and then throws them into Norbert's mouth.
In order to get closer to Noble and get the dragon's blood after a while, Ivan is extremely patient.
"Ivan, it seems that you are really talented to be a dragon trainer, don't you really think about coming to Rome after graduation?" Charlie couldn't help but ask, watching the scene of friendly coexistence between one person and one dragon. .
"You can forgive me. I was going to be bored just by taking care of Little Norbert a few years ago!" Ivan shook his head, and threw the last piece of roasted beef leg into Norbert's big mouth. .
"Better don't say that, Norbert doesn't like someone scolding him in person..." Charlie shrugged.
Sure enough, when Norbert heard Ivan's words, he was obviously a little unhappy. It tanned a small amount of flames from its mouth and almost burned Ivan's hair.
"Hey, Norbert, don't do that, I'm just kidding! I actually like raising dragons the most..." Ivan hurriedly changed his words, patted Norbert's head comfortably, and said a lot of good things. After I promised to watch it more, he calmed down Noble's little emotions.
Charlie watched this scene funny, and then talked to Ivan about Norbert's experience in Romania.
"When you and Hagrid sent Norbert a few years ago, we thought he was a young man by the name. We didn't expect that when we checked it later, we discovered that Norbert was actually a female dragon!
Later, I felt that the name Nob was really inappropriate, so I planned with my colleagues to change it to a new name... Nobetta! "
"Noberta? Then why didn't you hear this name?" Ivan asked curiously.
"Because it prefers people to call it Noble compared to the new name. Every time we change the name, Noble is not willing to talk to us." At this point, Charlie was very helpless. They tried many methods at the beginning. There is no way for Norbert to recognize his new name.
"I really don't know how you did it. Just a month of getting along can impress Norbert with the name, and after four years, it can quickly recognize you and Hagrid." Charlie Interestingly, he asked, he has been raising a dragon for several years, and this is the first time he has encountered such a situation.
"Probably Norbert is inherently smarter than ordinary dragons!" Ivan said casually, but he thought of a possibility in his heart.
Noble can clearly remember what happened in the first month of his birth. Most of it was because Professor McGonagall was too rough when he started his hands. Coupled with Dumbledore's anger, he left a deep impression on Noble. So far Long Sheng was shrouded in the shadow of the wizard.
"That's ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Norbert is the smartest dragon I have ever seen." Charlie didn't refute Ivan's statement, only thinking that Norbert is a different kind of dragon, so his memory is better than similar. many.
The two of them kept chatting about the past in Romania, and when the sky was completely dark, Ivan said goodbye, bid farewell to Charlie and Norbert and returned to the castle alone.
All the way to the door of the boys' dormitory, Ivan opened the door and didn't even go in. He saw Harry sitting on the bed with a pale face and dazed in a daze.
"What's wrong with you, Harry?" Ivan asked suspiciously.
Harry looked up at Ivan, and said slumpedly after a long time. "I just invited Qiu Zhang!"
"The result failed?" Ivan could guess the result after seeing Harry's appearance.
"I went too late. Zhang Qiu had already agreed to Cedric's invitation this afternoon..." Harry said in a sullen voice, "I don't know at all. It took George and Fred... "
"Oh my god, how could I do such a stupid thing?" Harry's body trembled, remembering the embarrassing scene in his mind.
It would be okay if no one else saw it, but there happened to be some Ravenclaw girls passing by in the corridor at that time. Harry felt that this incident would soon be spread out, and he would have no face to see anyone in the future!
Ivan patted Harry on the shoulder mercifully. Although Harry didn't clearly describe the situation at the scene, he could imagine what the scene was like-it must have been embarrassing at the time!
"Since Qiu Zhang has rejected you, do you think about whom to invite next? It will be the prom in a few days!" Yifan reminded him.
"I haven't decided yet... I can't ask one by one in the hallway tomorrow? I don't know who else hasn't been invited." Harry muttered. He felt that if he experienced such an embarrassing thing again, he would surely do it. Rushed to the paddock to find the fire dragon to commit suicide.
"Someone will definitely not refuse you, Harry! If no one else invites her yet." Ivan said after thinking about it.
"Who?" Harry asked hurriedly as if grabbing a straw.
"What do you think of Ginny?" Ivan asked with a smile.
"Ginny?" Harry hesitated for a moment, his face turned flushed, and he said vaguely. "But she... but she is Ron's sister."
"What's the matter, Ron is Ron, and Ginny is Ginny. What does your conflict with Ron have to do with Ginny? I remember that you and Ginny had a good chat last time?" Ivan did not Can understand Harry's brain circuit too much.
"You know, I didn't mean that." Harry said helplessly.
He and George are friends, Mr. Weasley and Mrs. Weasley are also very good to him, the Burrow is like the second home to him, Ginny is like his sister-too close, no Good start, awkward!
"Then you think about it slowly!" Ivan rolled his eyes, and he thought Harry was too hypocritical.
Ginny is very beautiful among the girls in the third grade, and she is his little girl again. What's so awkward about it?
Ivan didn't bother to pay attention to Harry who was hesitating, making the bed ready to go to bed, but before going to bed, thinking of what Charlie had said to him, he spoke again.
"By the way, Harry, I just heard Charlie mention that he told Ron about the fire dragon the day before the game."
Harry's thoughts were interrupted by Ivan's words, and he turned his head. At first he didn't understand what Ivan was talking about, but soon he thought of Ron's strange situation that night.
Harry hurriedly wanted to find Ivan to confirm his thoughts, but it was a pity that Ivan had already closed his eyes and lay on the bed with a quilt, and he didn't know if he really fell asleep.
Harry couldn't bother Ivan, there was only one person sitting by the bed waiting for Ron to return.
Just waited until eleven o'clock in the evening, when Harry couldn't help but want to sleep, the door of the bedroom was gently pulled open.
The person who came in was Ron.
He probably didn't expect that Harry would be waiting for him in the dormitory, so he stood at the door so bluntly, hesitated, and didn't step in for a long time.
The atmosphere in the bedroom became very weird, and Harry tried to break the atmosphere with words repeatedly, but the words that came to his mouth could not be smoothly spoken.
Ron probably thought that Harry would not speak to himself, so he closed the door and walked into the bedroom, walked silently to his bed, and when he took off his shoes, a sound suddenly reached his ears.
"Did you want to tell us that the first game of the game is related to the fire dragon that night?"
Harry's words were very blunt, as if they were forced out of his mouth. He even felt that speaking these words was even more difficult than the words he said when he invited Qiu Zhang to the ball before.
Ron's movement of taking off his shoes stopped, he looked at Harry with a very awkward expression, and finally replied in a low voice. "En~"
Harry didn't hear well, but he believed his guess, so he asked angrily. "Then you still think I threw my name into that broken cup?"
"I don't know." Ron turned his head and dared not look at Harry's face, whispering. "Maybe, maybe someone wants your life..."
When he learned from Charlie that the first game was to deal with the fire dragon, he became sober. Dumbledore said at the banquet that the Triwizard Tournament is only suitable for outstanding graduates who can participate in their own ability The Triwizard Tournament was undoubtedly suicide, and Harry couldn't make fun of his life.
So after struggling for a long time that night, Ron decided to remind him because he was worried that the two would be injured or even killed in the first game.
But the result was beyond Ron's expectation. Ivan and Harry seemed to have known about the fire dragon a long time ago and didn't need his prompt at all.
In the game, both of them also cleared easily. Harry got the golden egg on the broom without injury, and Ivan subdued the dragon on the spot.
At that time, the enthusiastic cheers in the paddock made Ron uncomfortable. When he remembered to congratulate the two in the Warriors Lounge, he found that there were already many people around them.
It's like... I'm superfluous.
"Maybe? So you are still doubting me?" Harry didn't know Ron's thoughts, and was so angry that he couldn't accept such ambiguous words.
"Yes, yeah! That's what I think, can't it? Anyway, you don't need friends like me..." Ron couldn't help breaking out, and he shouted loudly.
After speaking, Ron didn't take off his shoes, so he turned over and lay down on the bed, pulling the quilt and covering his head.
...
December, midwinter.
The sky gradually turned cooler, but the atmosphere in the castle became more restless. The air was filled with the sour smell called love. From time to time, you could see a pair of witches and witches walking together in the castle~www. mtlnovel.com~ The rest of the people are also actively discussing the Christmas dance party.
The new toll business created by George and Fred did not sink into it after losing the first battle. On the contrary, they received more orders and were well received.
Harry thought about it for a whole day, and finally made up his mind to invite Ginny, and the other party was very pleased to agree directly.
During lunch, Harry shared the good news with Ivan.
"It seems that it's not that difficult to invite a girl to the dance..." Harry said with emotion, solving the choice of the dance partner is like taking off the burden of his whole body.
"Of course, as long as you take the initiative, you won't be alone." Ivan said with a smile.
Harry nodded, then asked curiously. "What about you, Ivan, did Hermione agree to your invitation?"
"Not yet. I didn't see where she is this morning. I will go to her and ask after dinner." Ivan didn't worry at all, and replied easily. He thought Hermione would definitely agree to the invitation .
After eating lunch, Ivan pulled out the live map and took a look, and walked to where Hermione was.
When passing by a corridor, the two happened to meet each other.
Ivan stepped forward quickly, but Hermione looked a little absent-minded. She just walked forward with her head down and didn't seem to see him.
"Hermione!" Ivan greeted, the latter did not respond, he had no choice but to stop in front of the little witch.
"Ah? Ivan, what's the matter?" Hermione raised her head, as if she had just discovered him, her eyes were a little red.
Ivan saw that something was wrong with Hermione, but couldn't tell what was wrong, so he bit the bullet and asked. "Did you think about the prom? Hermione?"
Listening to Ivan's words, Hermione's face became very cold, her brown eyes stared at Ivan in annoyance, and then hummed softly after a while. "Didn't you already invite others? What are you asking me to do?"
Ivan was at a loss. When did he invite others?
Before he could understand, Hermione slammed his shoulder hard, held the book in her arms, and ran away angrily.
Ivan hurriedly turned around to look at Hermione's leaving figure, but the little witch was no longer there, replaced by the sound of "puff" wooden legs on the ground-a few seconds later I saw Moody's growth from there. The corridor came over.
"Hals, I found you, I don't have time to explain to you, hurry up and walk with me!" Moody quickened his pace the moment I saw Ivan, and said solemnly, holding his arm. .
"Did you not see that I have something to deal with? Professor Moody? Can you wait for me a few minutes if you can, it will not be too late for us to act later." Ivan rolled his eyes and said with a sigh. He had to do it. Understand why Hermione felt that he invited others, and if there was any misunderstanding in it.
"No, we can't delay, Hals, there are not many opportunities like this..." Moody shook his head and said eagerly. The expression on his face was very dignified. His magic eye swept around and saw the surroundings. There was no one, so he lowered his body, lowered his voice and continued.
"Crouch will go to discuss with Bagman this afternoon about the next game. He happens to be out of his office! This is a rare opportunity... We only have half an hour of safe time at most!"
Ivan hesitated, but did not move.
"Did you invite Miss Granger to the prom just now?" Moody asked slightly irritably.
If he could, he didn't want to waste time doing emotional coaching for a little boy at such an important moment, but now it seems that he has no choice.
Ivan didn't want to answer this question very much.
Moody on the side did not hesitate to expose it. "Obviously easy to see, you failed?"
"You can't say that!" Ivan shook his head firmly.
"It's not a big deal to be rejected by a girl. Even if you are a warrior at Hogwarts, you won't be so famous for everyone to like you!" Moody said quickly. "You may be able to change a goal, there are too many girls waiting for your invitation, they will be ecstatic about it!"
Ivan's brows frowned, and Moody changed his tone of voice, seeing that he didn't like listening to it.
"But I don't think things are that bad. Everyone at school can tell Miss Granger treats you..." Moody rarely looked at Ivan with normal eyes. He didn't go on talking, but turned. And suggested.
"I think you should learn to be tough, Hals! Sometimes a hug is more real than any words. Those witches are always insecure and desperately want to know..."
"Are you going to provide me with some emotional guidance? Professor Moody?" Ivan interrupted Moody's words, and then looked at him with a very strange look, "But if I am not mistaken, You should have been single to this day, right?"
A lonely old bachelor provides emotional advice to a teenager who is experiencing emotional entanglements. How weird it is...
"Make no mistake, being single doesn't mean that I have never been liked, Hals! I was an admirer of countless admirers when I was an Auror at the Ministry of Magic. I just put all my energy into it. How to catch those dark wizards." Moody retorted, with a bit of pride in his words.
"Really? Are you sure?" Ivan looked at his face that seemed to have been shaved with a knife, and doubted Moody's statement.
Moody saw Ivan's thoughts, and the hideous face twitched.
"I suddenly understand why Miss Granger rejected you... Hals!" he said.
"En?" Ivan looked at him in surprise.
"It must be because you spoke too hurt!" Moody groaned.
Ivan was speechless, he was silent for a moment, and finally said with a sigh. "Well, according to your plan, we are going to search Crouch's office now!"
"That's right! It's too late to go now! Deal with this matter, you will have enough time to comfort your little girlfriend." Moody raised his eyebrows and couldn't wait to pull Ivan's wrist upstairs. Go.
Ivan didn't resist either, so Moody took him to Crouch's office.
He already wanted to understand why Hermione said that, and Ivan hadn't forgotten that someone was following him in the evening two days ago.
Now I want to follow Hermione. She saw the farewell scene of herself and Luna in the Ravenclaw tower—perhaps more?
It doesn't matter how much you see, what's important is that Hermione may have misunderstood ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Thinking of this, Ivan's heart is very upset, even though he has figured out the reason, he also understands that as long as he explains clearly, he can make Hermione calmed down.
But... this was the second time Hermione was so angry this semester. Ivan wondered if there would be a third or fourth time after he explained it.
He admitted that it was his fault the first time, and repeatedly broke his promise and forgot to write to Hermione (though he didn't think it was a very serious mistake).
This time it was different. Hermione was unwilling to accompany him to practice dementia. He understood Hermione's difficulties and recognized her memory protection behavior, so he chose Luna as the object of practice...
Ivan didn't expect to be bumped into by Hermione, nor did Hermione's trust in him be so weak, even if she rushed over and questioned herself at the time, it was much better than wanting to be crazy.
Ivan became more depressed the more I thought about it, which was why he was willing to find clues with Moody instead of going to Hermione to explain immediately.
He thinks everyone needs time to calm down, think about it, not only Hermione, but also himself...
Just as Ivan was thinking in his mind, Moody's pace suddenly stopped, causing him to almost hit the wall.
Ivan raised his head angrily to ask, only to find that Barty Crouch's office was in front of him, and they had arrived!
"Hold the wand, Hals!" Moody was putting his hand on the doorknob, and he whispered.
Ivan nodded, he was ready before Moody's reminded him.
"Alohomora~ (Alaho Cave opens Moody waved his wand, and with a crisp sound, the door lock automatically unlocked.
Moody opened the door cautiously, his expression nervous as if someone would pounce at any time.
But things were obviously not that bad, as Moody said, there was no one in it. It seems that the intelligence is not wrong, Crouch did go to discuss the game with Bagman.
Ivan didn't enter immediately, so he glanced outside.
This temporary office is not too wide, only half the size of a classroom, with a warm red carpet on the floor, and the flame in the fireplace still not extinguished, all of which prove that Crouch has just left.
Moody's gaze was placed on the surrounding walls for the first time. When he saw that there were no portraits on it, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked in with a cane.
But before that, Moody hadn't forgotten to impose a silent spell on his wooden legs, which made his stepping sound a little quieter.
Ivan followed in, and walked to the work table in the center for the first time.
Some documents were scattered on the table, and quill pens and ink bottles were pushed to the corner of the table. In addition, there was a daily prophet in a prominent place!
Ivan directly stretched out his hand instead of taking it, but adjusted his position and stood to the front so that he could read the specific content of the newspaper.
But when he saw the cover of the newspaper, he was stunned. This was not the latest issue of the Daily Prophet. He was pretty sure he had read it!
Because what is reported above is exactly the summer Quidditch World Cup, Sirius's big face is still printed on the photo, and below is the news about the Dark Mark and Death Eaters gathering to set fire in the camp.
On the other side, Moody was carefully flipping the documents, frowning from time to time, and there was no sound for a long time.
The actions of the two also disturbed the little creatures here. A fox flew out from the crack in the corner, accompanied by a few snuff box-like creatures.
All of this naturally couldn't escape Moody's constantly turning magic eyes. He stepped on the soles of his shoes as soon as he raised his feet, and then grabbed one of the undead little ones with his hands.
"Hey~ It looks like it is seriously under-maintained, otherwise they wouldn't dare to be so rampant." Moody looked around and noticed dust accumulating on the chairs leaning on the corner.
"Don't forget, Crouch has often been out of school in the past few months, you told me!" Ivan reminded.
"Yes, but he has been back for several days this time! Crouch has not touched the document that needs to be signed on the table either..." Moody continued solemnly. "Moreover, he definitely doesn't want others to come in at will! So those house elves can't help him tidy up!"
Listening to Moody's words, Ivan was lost in thought, and he increasingly believed that Barty Crouch was a disguise for Little Crouch.
After all, Little Crouch is not the real director of the Department of Communication and Cooperation, so naturally he can't handle these documents. If he is not at Hogwarts, he may be visiting Voldemort.
"What kind of people do you think will have no time to take care of their office? Even if they just move their fingers to release a cleaning spell?" Moody asked suddenly.
"Busy person? Like you? Or someone in a particularly bad mood?" Ivan looked at the Daily Prophet, distracted and replied casually.
"It's all possible!" Moody nodded, and then noticed that Ivan seemed to be thinking about something else, and said with dissatisfaction. "Well, don't think about Miss Granger, Hals, we need work now!"
Ivan glared at Moody's, and explained lazily, but pointed to the file Moody was holding. "If you go through his things like this, Mr. Crouch won't find out when he comes back?"
"Do you think he still has that thought?" Moody glanced at Ivan and turned the file in his hand to show him.
It was a document from a few months ago. It was a bill. As the director, Crouch should have signed his name at the end and wrote yes or no, but there was no word at the end, and it was even passed. The deadline indicated on the bill.
Ivan understood what Moody meant, which meant that Crouch had probably never looked at this document, or he might have thrown it aside after reading it.
"What if he just wants us to think that way?" Yifan still retorted, he wouldn't underestimate the anti-reconnaissance capabilities of a former executive director.
If the other party is fake, it is more worthy of vigilance. An undercover who sneaks into the castle alone will be more cautious than anyone!
"You are careful enough!" Moody smiled, his eyes full of admiration when he looked at Ivan.
"Then we will wait and don't forget, remember the location of these things, if we don't find any important information this time, we have to put them back..."
Moody was also going to continue speaking, the expression on his face suddenly changed, and the weird blue eyes turned straight to the door, their mouths closed and closed, as if they were saying--
He came back early!
Ivan's face changed, and he suddenly became a little nervous. He was ninety-nine percent sure that Crouch must have a problem, but they have not found enough evidence to correct each other, such as a bottle containing a compound decoction, or Other things that are sufficient to prove the identity of the other party.
He suddenly regretted that he was wary of Moody and didn't reveal the map of the live spot, which made them unable to accurately grasp the specific whereabouts of Crouch, and they were blocked in the room.
It's obviously not the time to regret it now~www.mtlnovel.com~ Ivan only used the method that he thought of in a moment. He backhanded his wand and tapped his body, and the whole person seemed to be shrouded in a thin film and disappeared. In the same place.
Moody on the other side almost simultaneously used the phantom spell, and this small room seemed to be empty again.
Ivan also noticed that the documents on the table had been sorted out, as if an invisible hand was playing with them, and Hu Meizi, who had died underground, was also stepped on by Moody's.
The next second, the sound of turning the door lock came.
Ivan's mind was tense to the extreme. Don't look at them now in a state of invisibility, but the effect of the Phantom Curse is not as powerful as that of the Deathly Hallows Invisibility Cloak, and some smart wizards can easily see through it.
Not to mention that they are standing at the table now, if the other person wants to come over and sit down, they will definitely bump into each other...
