Harry Potter’s Natural Villain

Chapter 274 The so-called truth

"Mr. Crouch?" Percy stood up from his seat and said in surprise.

It's just that this middle-aged man has lost his former vigor at this time, as if he has entered the twilight years ahead of time, his black hair is almost white now, and the wrinkles and spots on his face all reflect his old age.

He walked out of the conference room on the left side of the auditorium, wearing a black suit, looking tired.

"Oh, Weatherby." He murmured, then coughed a few times, ignoring Percy's shouts, and then came behind Dumbledore.

Dumbledore stood up, patted Crouch on the shoulder comfortingly, and said a few words in a low voice.

"This is really disrespectful." Percy said irritably. He felt that their behavior was somewhat inconsistent with their identities.

The award ceremony began. This time the host is no longer Ludo Bagman. According to him, he has some very urgent and important things to deal with.

Maybe to avoid gambling debts?This is unknown to everyone.

This task was taken over by Dumbledore, and the old man's thick voice sounded throughout the auditorium.

"The Triwizard Tournament that lasted for more than half a year came to an end not long ago. I believe that all guests from outside schools or our students at Hogwarts must have had a lot of fun during it. The four warriors also We have dedicated one after another wonderful games."

The four warriors have already stood in a clearing in front of the main guest seat at this time, ready to take the stage to receive the award.

The audience burst into applause at this time, and several warriors nodded to the audience from time to time.

As the award ceremony, the parents of several warriors were also invited as guests, but they were not with the warriors during dinner just now.

They sat at another table and enjoyed their dinner.

"However... under this unprecedented event, something extremely unacceptable happened behind the scenes." Dumbledore's voice suddenly became low, no longer the high tone of the previous one.

Those azure blue eyes scanned back and forth in the auditorium, extremely majestic.

"Listen, listen, Minerva, I guessed it, this is definitely what I said ominous!" Professor Tenilauni said excitedly.

Professor McGonagall glanced at her sideways, and then showed a not very friendly smile: "I thought you were used to the "bad habits" that our principal likes to joke."

The next moment, Professor McGonagall's smile freezes on his face.

"Voldemort is back." The old man's words echoed in the auditorium.

Most of them first heard the name Voldemort, and invariably trembled in fear, then the expression on their faces fell into numbness, as if they didn't even hear what Dumbledore was saying.

What does the Goblet of Fire have to do with Voldemort?Is it possible that he has participated in this kind of competition before?

They thought about it unconsciously, and didn't even hear the second half of Dumbledore's words.

A small number of conscious students and faculty members looked at Dumbledore in horror at this time, obviously unable to believe this fact.

The warriors also had different expressions. Harry breathed a sigh of relief, and seemed to relax for himself not to keep secrets. Krum, like most people, did not realize what Dumbledore said. , I'm still a bit confused.

As for Malfoy, he closed his eyelids lightly, as if Dumbledore had just said a not very funny joke.

Furong was completely caught in a tangled emotion, her slender fingers closed tightly, and she looked at the boy who seemed to know nothing about it, as if she had made some determination.

"Seeing is not necessarily true. In addition to the extraordinary ingenuity, sometimes we can also make some decisions based on our own hearts." A girl's words suddenly popped out of her mind.

The girl who "robbed" her established dance partner.

After that unpleasant incident, Fleur spent many days in Hogwarts for many days. She felt that the only way to ease her mentality of resentment was to aimlessly. Of walking.

Then I often found that girl named Luna appeared in all kinds of unexpected places.

At first she thought it was some kind of demonstration by this girl, but later she knew it was just a coincidence.

Luna can always get together with some weird creatures, these creatures seem to be very close to this girl, even if they look fierce, they are unconsciously gentle under her touch.

In the last private meeting between the two, Luna approached her on the initiative and started a conversation with her.

Furong didn't know why the girl suddenly said such a word to her without thinking, but she was willing to believe that this was her enlightenment.

She felt the kindness from that girl.

"Do I really want to follow my intuition?" Furong asked herself, and she slowly closed her eyes and started thinking.

"Voldemort is back." The old man's voice resounded through the auditorium again.

This time, even the slowest person knew what Dumbledore was saying.

Immediately after the audience was a nervous whisper.

"Sorry." At this time Dumbledore had quietly walked to the stage, and the people on stage changed to Barty Crouch.

He bowed heavily to the crowd.

"I'm sorry!" he said in a sad voice.

"I did not perform the duties of a Ministry official." Crouch continued.

Percy's expression was wonderful. He didn't know why Mr. Crouch would suddenly apologize to everyone. He seemed a little overwhelmed and looked around, only to find that no one was paying attention to him.

"I will resign soon and accept the trial that I deserve. As for my mistakes, I will confess to everyone today."

"The older professors here must have experienced that frightening time. Fortunately, that person fell, and then many Death Eaters were liquidated. If you still have an impression, maybe you still remember that I was not a good tool. My son is also one of them." He said slowly.

"At the time, I tried my best to show an unselfish spirit. Of course, this did not help my political future. At that time, I was a strong candidate for the next Minister of Magic. I thought that the impact of this incident had also lost competitiveness. , And finally became the director of the International Magic Exchange and Cooperation Department."

"My selfishness made things start to an irreversible situation." The middle-aged man's tone became more and more gloomy, and the audience in the audience looked at the scene in front of him with some disbelief.

"I saved my son." Crouch said flatly an amazing fact.

Many people in the audience began to whisper.

"Impossible! No one can escape from Azkaban!" A student stood up and said, only to find that there was an exception a year ago, and he blushed and sat down.

"Yeah, almost no one can escape from Azkaban." Crouch glanced in that direction and nodded.) Download the free reader!!
