Chapter 519
Harry felt as if he was seeing a pale world.It looked like a station. After looking around, he found that except for the color, everything else here was very similar to Platform Nine and Three-quarters of King's Cross Station.
This discovery made Harry smile bitterly.His wizarding career began on this platform.Now when I pass away from this world, I also leave from this platform.It does seem a bit fateful.
"what……"
A weak but unpleasant moan.
Harry heard the sound and looked around again with some confusion. Finally, he found the source of the sound.
It was a swaddle under the couch where he first woke up.Inexplicably, he felt that the baby was familiar.Lying down and taking out the swaddle from under the bench, Harry took a look among the swaddle and saw a baby whose whole body looked like it had been scalded with boiling water and then burned again by fire.The baby's face was very similar to the one he had first seen when Voldemort was a baby.
Harry was startled and immediately threw the swaddling clothes out.The swaddle, along with the baby inside, hit the bench and rolled to the floor.
Harry was confused for a moment.Is Voldemort also dead?Luke avenged him?
And at this moment, he suddenly saw where the baby had just fallen, a man wearing a gray-white robe with a hood covering his face. Only a pale, beardless chin could be seen. He bent down and picked up the ugly baby from the ground. baby.
The moment he appeared, Harry felt like he couldn't move.His hands and feet were completely out of control, and his heart was beating faster and faster, as if it was beating a drum in his ears.
However, this feeling gradually faded away when the man in gray robe carried the baby away.The baby's moans could still be heard in my ears.It seemed to be getting more and more urgent, but it might have been Harry's imagination.
In short, after He left, Harry finally breathed a sigh of relief.Then I felt a huge sense of fatigue.So within a moment, he fell asleep on the ground.
………………
"Harry! Harry! Wake up! Harry! Nothing happens to you! Harry!"
Harry felt a crying voice coming from his ear.This voice was quite familiar to him.When he opened his eyes, he did see Sirius' face.
Sirius had no manners at all now. When he saw Harry open his eyes, he couldn't hold back the tears and fell from his eyes.
"You're alive, you're alive!"
He pulled Harry into his arms, as if his most cherished treasure had been found.
Harry could feel his excitement, so he hugged his godfather without resisting.He somewhat longs for care from his elders.It's a pity that he doesn't have any other elders who can care about him like this.
Harry opened his eyes and found that many people were paying attention to him. After seeing him wake up, everyone looked relieved.But at this time, the deep love between father and son really made it impossible for others to come forward and talk to him.
Harry noticed that Luke glanced at him and was not too surprised to see him wake up. He just nodded slightly and continued talking to Dumbledore and Cornelius Fudge over there.Fudge was blushing and had a thick neck, like a bluffing fighting cock.
"No! Absolutely impossible! He is already dead!"
Cornelius Fudge looked at the young man in front of him with excitement on his face.He looked completely different now, without the majesty of being the Minister of Magic.Maybe this kind of thing doesn't exist in the first place.
Fudge is very clear that he can only take over his position under the condition of social stability.If Voldemort was resurrected during his reign, those who supported him would quickly reject him.After all, most of these people have no way to deal with Voldemort.So if they want to find someone to vent their anger, it must be the leader of the British wizarding community.
Luke looked at Fudge's reaction now, his eyes unchanged.He knew exactly what Fudge was afraid of now.But he could only say that Fudge was thinking too much.Are you still thinking about support rates?
If Voldemort is allowed to expand his power, then Fudge's Minister of Magic will not last long.Because Voldemort needs to sit in this position so that he can demonstrate his authority as much as possible and cover his power with a layer of legality and compliance.
At that time, it was unclear whether Fudge had a chance of dying normally.Based on Luke's knowledge of the Death Eaters' ways.The most likely way they would deal with Fudge is to directly eliminate Fudge.As a result, if the Minister of Magic is vacant, it will naturally be necessary to select a new one.
Therefore, Fudge's reaction now somewhat shows that his brain is insufficient.
Fortunately, Luke didn't want to waste time with Fudge at first.He continued to look at Dumbledore and said: "Although I captured Karkaroff, if I read correctly, Miriam John and Randolph Mendy should still be with him. They took advantage of my absence. Attention, take away the injured Voldemort."
After listening to Luke's story, the people around him couldn't help but start talking to each other.Luke noticed that the family patriarchs who were frightened by his conditions seemed to have other ideas.This satisfied Luke.He has enough people on board now.Although a few more is still not much, but it is definitely a good thing to have less.
Now is the time to test the judgment of these people.
Dumbledore was not at all frightened by Luke's thrilling story.Dumbledore could tell how powerful the newly resurrected Voldemort was from reading between the lines of Luke's words.After making a basic judgment on Voldemort's strength, he knew that Luke must have let Voldemort go on purpose.
Therefore, his face was particularly ugly at this time.He knew that in Luke's eyes and in Grindelwald's eyes, people like Voldemort had never been looked down upon.After all, Voldemort's structure was too different from theirs.However, Dumbledore has always attached great importance to the harm that Voldemort will cause.The reason is also very simple. Both Luke and Grindelwald are going to do big things.They know very well that brutal methods are the way to go, but if they can't really act unscrupulously, they will lose the support of the people and some potential supporters.If you want to do great things, you cannot do without the help of these people.
But Voldemort is different.That guy doesn't have that many scruples.He doesn't have any too lofty dreams or realms.He supported his men in bullying those half-blood wizards, Muggle-born wizards, and Muggles.
Therefore, Voldemort's thoughts are not dangerous, and will become less and less dangerous as the pure-blood forces decline day by day.But Voldemort is dangerous, and so are his men.Because they have no bottom line.
In the eyes of others, Dumbledore looked ugly at this time because Voldemort appeared. The resurrection of this difficult enemy made Dumbledore feel troublesome.They also believed that Luke's statement about barely repelling the newly resurrected Voldemort was putting gold on his face.Maybe he managed to hold on with some special magic props, and then managed to escape with Harry and Karkaroff.
Only Luke knew that Dumbledore's face was for him to see.
He looked a little tired and said to Dumbledore: "Professor, I have something to say to you alone later."
When he spoke, his tone was weak, as if he was frightened and exhausted.Dumbledore could tell at a glance that Luke was acting.Still he nodded.Now that the matter was over, he still wanted to hear the reasons given by Luke.It’s not that he is obsessed with anything, he just wants to find out how far Luke intends to go.
"it is good."
He couldn't calm down his mood for a while, and responded somewhat stiffly.After everyone saw Dumbledore's reaction, they talked to each other more frequently.Some even withdrew directly, presumably for separate discussions.
No one cared about Fudge's reaction at this point.No one cared about Harry's condition.The reporters who were invited did not pay much attention to the Three Witches Tournament.What they were more concerned about was whether Voldemort's resurrection was true or false.
Although there is the Dark Mark, there is also Luke's narration.But most people still reject this fact in their hearts.Therefore, it is normal for them to have reservations about this truth that they have not witnessed with their own eyes.Not giving up before reaching the Yellow River and being lucky are things that humans are good at.
However, faced with such a situation, Lucius reacted quickly.The media invited by him and Batty quickly unified their steps.This thing definitely exists.And Luke is the hero who defeated Voldemort head-on, rescued his friends and captured a Death Eater.
It basically follows the story told by Luke.But Luke couldn't be as reluctant and embarrassed as he said.Not to mention relaxed and freehand, at least it must be evenly matched.
Journalists still know the rules of taking people's money and doing things for them.Even they themselves have doubts about this matter, but Lord Malfoy has said so, so they will write it like this.
Anyway, writing like this, there is no shortage of traffic.Of course, everyone will definitely not write too much.Not too disparaging of Voldemort.As a human being, you still have to leave room for yourself.
Luke noticed Lucius's movements and couldn't help but nodded.He did do the right thing by bringing Lucius Malfoy on board.After all, he didn't have time to deal with many things himself, and others didn't have the ability or awareness to deal with them. Lucius Malfoy was the experienced person who could do something for him.
Barty Crouch can certainly do this.But in terms of sensitivity to this kind of thing, that is, in terms of cleverness, Barty Crouch cannot match Lucius.Barty Crouch's talent lies more in politics.
After Ludo Bagman announced that Luke was the champion, and a perfect champion, the Triwizard Tournament seemed to come to an anticlimactic end.
But everyone knows that this is the beginning of making waves in the British wizarding world, and even in the world's wizarding world.
………………
"sit."
Dumbledore took Luke into his office.The portraits of the principals hanging on the wall all looked at the young and old again.They had seen a lot of scenes of these two people walking in one after another.But because of this, they easily felt the gap between the two of them at this time.
This is quite common at the beginning of a conversation between two people.Later, the way the two got along gradually approached the state of being friends for many years and being old friends for many years.What is happening now?Let the relationship between these two suspicious people return to before liberation overnight?
The principals couldn't help but pricked their ears, hoping to hear something interesting.
These people are indeed absolutely trustworthy.After all, although they seem to have their own thoughts, they can even move freely in the two-dimensional world in the painting.But in fact, their thinking is also locked.They were programmed the moment they were drawn not to betray Hogwarts.So this concept will be implemented in all their next actions.
They may know a lot of secret knowledge and things.But they themselves are not creative.It is also impossible to rely on existing information to infer a possible outcome.
Paintings are not people after all.
"Tell me, tell me the real situation at that time."
Dumbledore waved and the teapot poured a cup of black tea for both him and Luke.It was already getting late.It's good to drink some black tea to refresh yourself, after all, I don't know when I can go to bed tonight.
Luke was also unambiguous. After taking a sip of tea, he began to explain his previous actions to Dumbledore in detail.He knew that if he still wanted to gain Dumbledore's support now, the best way would be to tell everything frankly.
Let’s start with those things about the Quidditch World Cup, talking about Harry’s strange dream, and talking about Harry’s assigned quota, and the subsequent things that Luke secretly arranged, plus the confrontation between Luke and Voldemort. The real situation, and some of the gains Luke gained from these things.
"You mean..." Dumbledore looked a little serious, "Your traitor gave these special door keys to the enemy."
Luke nodded and said: "How many people in this world can study the door key so well? After I seized the door key and you explained the characteristics of the other party's spell to me, I paid attention Put it on my Kane family."
Ryan Kane, this person has no logic in turning to him.Everything now is questionable.
