Chapter 126 The 2nd Draco
A... little guy with a head full of naive ideas actually believed the nonsense told by Death Eaters.After sending Draco away, Marn thought.
He packed up his things and took out the small flying carpet he had just made from the storage room. Although this thing was not small, there was no place to grab it, and the most important thing was that it was soft. When lying on it, you would always feel Some are unreliable.
Just as he was hesitating, Esther pushed the door open and said, "Marn? Sorry, I just came back. Professor Snape didn't let me go until the end of get out of class."
Ma En was stunned: "Why are you back?"
Aster was also stunned: "Didn't you wink at me and ask me to take leave? I was deducted 5 points by Snape because of this matter. Fortunately, he allowed me to take leave after class."
Ma En held it in for a long time without saying anything, and finally pointed at the flying carpet: "I...it's okay. Now that you're back, please come with me for a walk. It just so happens that I can't sit still very well on this thing."
I silently prayed in my heart that the next evolution would give me the ability to read words, which makes the use of my eyes a bit difficult.
Esther responded softly, and then asked: "What's going on? I think Malfoy knocked away your candy."
"It's nothing. It's just that Draco was coaxed by Barty Crouch Jr., and he regretted it ever since. He stopped me when he saw me eating candy."
"Crouch?" Esther frowned: "So, you found where this guy is and are you going to find him?"
"Yes, he is in Hogsmeade. Last time Professor McGonagall asked me to investigate, I had always ignored this place. In fact, now that I think about it, Hogsmeade Village is actually part of Hogwarts. "
"Okay, then... let's go?"
"Let's go to Honeydukes Candy Shop. He is there. There is a tunnel there leading to Hogwarts. He probably wants to knock me out and sneak into Hogwarts."
"No way," Esther asked strangely: "He can come in at night. Does he think you won't sleep?"
"It's not his fault...it's my fault. I placed mines in every secret passage that allowed me to sneak into the school from the outside. I guess he didn't dare to go in, so he came up with this idea. "
"..."
Without saying anything else, Esther pulled the flying carpet to the yard, lightly tapped it with her wand, and the flying carpet rose to the level of her knees.
She first sat in the front seat in the middle of the flying carpet, while Ma En ran up behind her and hugged her waist as a matter of course.
Esther sighed, grasped a small protrusion of the flying carpet with both hands, and controlled the flying carpet to fly towards Hogsmeade at a high speed. Marne asked her to slow down on the way, but she just pretended that she was in a hallucination. Listen, no response at all.
It is now morning, and many wizards who came here are wandering around Hogsmeade. However, the door of the candy store is abnormally locked, which makes some wizards who are not sure why are slightly disappointed.
Ma En was not polite and just blew up the door of this place with an explosive spell. It was not because of his violence, but because there was magic on the door to open the Alajo hole. He didn't have the key, so he could only use this simple and crude method.
In front of the counter, three middle-aged faces were playing cards with cigars in their mouths, making the entire candy store full of smoke. The sound of Marn and Esther opening the door obviously startled them, and they looked at the dust flying together. door.
After seeing someone they didn't know coming in, they reacted quickly and quickly pulled out their wands and cast a few spells. However, their skills were obviously limited, and Marn didn't even do anything. Esther, who had been holding the wand, cast their The magic was blocked.
"Marn, you go upstairs, I will deal with these people." Esther said after casually releasing a disarming spell and taking away a wizard's wand.
Marn knew that Esther's combat ability was good. After all, Old Walder taught her... It was strange that her combat ability was low. After hearing what she said, Marn didn't say much and casually put an iron armor spell on her body. , turned around and walked towards the second floor from the side.
The door on the second floor was locked tightly, still with a simple and crude iron armor spell. After the explosion, there was a short corridor and several room doors. In the first room were the boss here, Mr. Frum and his wife. Mrs. Froome, Ma En stepped forward and took a look. She was not dead, just unconscious.
Although I don’t know why Barty Crouch Jr. didn’t kill them, but no matter what, people can always get some clues here.
After using several water spells and splashing them on the couple's faces, they woke up quickly and screamed in despair. Ma En had to use magic to shut them up and explain the matter clearly. Unlock the throat lock and ask them if they know anything else.
These two people...how should I put it? It can't be said that they don't know anything. It can only be said that they have no useful information at all. They kept repeating how many things Barty Crouch Jr. smashed after meeting and what he used on them. What kind of magic? When I asked where this person was going, I didn't know and passed out. Moreover, they were very hungry now, so hungry that they could almost eat a cow.
When Ma En's questioning was about to end, Esther had already dealt with several people downstairs and came up. Seeing that he couldn't figure it out, he simply went to open the doors of other rooms one by one.
There was no one in the first few rooms, but there was a room that seemed to be a cloakroom with a large amount of change scattered on the floor. She would check for traces every time she opened a room, and then left a little disappointed.
Until the last master bedroom...
"Ma En, come on!" She exclaimed as she looked at the middle-aged man who was tied to the chair and struggling.
Hearing the noise, Ma En hurried over and took a look: "Barty Crouch Jr.!?"
He knew this Death Eater and showed Marn his photo when Professor McGonagall arranged for him to investigate Hogwarts.
Pulling off the patch on his mouth, Marn was about to ask a question when he saw "Barty Crouch Jr." speaking in a frightened and very fast voice: "Marn, go back to Hogwarts quickly. , Barty Crouch Jr. read my memory, turned into me, and arranged for his men to come up every once in a while to give me polyjuice potion. I will be tied up here when I come back from the United States, he thought. Lure you out of school!"
"You are…"
"I'm Draco!"
Ma En looked at him in disbelief: "How is it possible, I used Legilimency at that time!?"
Esther next to her waved her wand, and the middle-aged man on the chair turned into a thin Draco. His hair, which was not much, was missing part of his hair on one side of his forehead, and the rope on his body was too loose. It fell off, she frowned and said:
"It's Occlumency. That guy used Occlumency to forge his own memory. Marn, let's go!"
