What the hell are you talking about? Does Mr. Crouch have another son? And why did he put Harry's name in the Goblet of Fire? Seamus didn't understand Ivan's words at all, and asked in confusion.

But Ivan didn't mean to explain, his attention was already drawn to the names of the people in the headmaster's office.

After a few glances at the map, Ivan turned to look at Harry and said solemnly. "Let's go! We're going to Professor Dumbledore now, he's right in the office, I'll explain it to you in detail on the way to Barty! ”

Harry nodded, and without changing his clothes, he ran out of the bedroom with Ivan in his pajamas.

"Wait for me! I'm going with you too! Ron hurriedly shouted, and immediately followed.

On the way to the principal's office, Ivan told him what happened a few days ago, and there was no need to hide it now.

After listening to Ivan's story, Harry and Ron were stunned for a while, and after a while, Ron stammered as if he had come back to his senses.

"Are you saying Professor Moody was controlled by the Imperius Curse? How is this possible? He's a legendary Auror, and he's captured so many dark wizards! ”

Harry also couldn't believe it, he had seen Moody's performance all this time, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was the best Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, not to mention that Moody was also very good to himself, and he was kind enough to help him scare Malfoy last time.

"Harry, have you forgotten? The more clever the dark wizard, the better at making up lies, like Professor Quirrell in the first year, who would have believed that he had done so many bad things if he hadn't exposed himself? Ivan reminded.

Harry and Ron were dumbfounded, but quickly and frustratedly asked Ivan why he hadn't told them earlier.

Harry, in particular, was even more entangled in this, thinking that since Voldemort was going to arrest him, he should at least have the right to know, but now that Barty Crouch Jr. is dead, he just knows that the other party intends to frame him.

"At first, I was just guessing, and if I said it in advance and accidentally guessed it wrong in the end, wouldn't it be very embarrassing..."Ivan shrugged his shoulders and explained in a confused way.

Harry was about to ask again, but the entrance to the Headmaster's office was already in sight, and he had to hold back his doubts for the time being.

"Chilled lemon juice!" Ivan spoke to the huge stone beast in front of the door.

In order to make it easier to report in an emergency, Dumbledore had already informed him of the orders for the entrance and exit of the Headmaster's Office in the last few months.

The huge stone beast rumbled, slowly moved to make way for a passage, and Ivan and the others immediately walked up the spiral-shaped staircase.

Before they could enter the headmaster's room, the sound of a fierce quarrel inside came out first.

Harry and Ron could faintly hear what seemed to be Fudge and Umbridge's voice.

Ivan wasn't surprised at all, he had already seen the names of the two men and some of the Aurors on the map of the living point.

Walking upstairs, Ivan unexpectedly saw a crowd of people standing in the principal's office.

The one at the head was Cornelius Fudge, the current Minister of Magic, who was pointing to the corpse of Barty Crouch Jr. on the ground, frowning.

"Albus, so you're coming to me this time to tell me that this charred corpse with an indistinct face is Mr. Crouch's son, Barty Jr.? The Death Eater who died in Azkaban more than a decade ago?

And he also hatched a plot to put Harry's name in the Goblet of Fire, intending to use the game to send Harry to the mysterious man? ”

Fudge looked at Dumbledore with a look that seemed to make me laugh, like a patient with severe Alzheimer's disease.

However, Dumbledore was not joking at all, he spoke very seriously.

"I know you're going to have a hard time accepting this, Connelly, so I've told Alastor to ask Barty to come over, and he'll tell you if it's true!"

"I don't think Barty would risk his life in Azkaban to lie to you, do you? It's even more ridiculous than what I'm telling you, isn't it? ”

Dumbledore's words were extremely sharp, and under his gaze, a heavy pressure enveloped everyone's hearts.

Fudge lost his composure, and he looked around in a slightly flustered manner, as if expecting someone to stand up and contradict Dumbledore's words.

But all the Aurors cowered, even Umbridge, who was usually the most active, did not move, her mouth was tightly closed as if someone had sewn it up, and she could not speak.

Fudge took a few steps back uneasily, until he stood in the crowd, and seemed to feel a little more relieved.

But then came an irritation, which Fudge took as Dumbledore's provocation to him, and spoke forcefully.

"Albus... Honestly, I don't know what you're up to...... Barty Jr. is long dead, and two Aurors have watched him buried in the ground!

It's the same with the mystery man, he died long ago that night, and everyone in the wizarding world knows this, he will never come back! Forever! ”

Fudge yelled hysterically, every word as if it had been squeezed out of his mouth.

Dumbledore's expression became more and more disappointed, and he opened his mouth to continue his persuasion, but before that, a familiar voice sounded.

"No, you are wrong, Mr. Minister!"

The sudden words interrupted the conversation of several people, and everyone listened to the voice.

Harry, who was barricaded in the doorway, struggled to break free from the two Aurors who stood in his way, and stood bravely in front of them.

Ivan was helpless about his recklessness, but he still followed, he chose to be there at this time only to listen to some useful information, not to be a target.

"Oh, Mr. Potter, and ...... Hals, how did you end up here? Albus didn't tell me that he would invite the two of you to come and testify. Fudge squinted his eyes and said flatly, the timing of Ivan and the others coming was a little too coincidental.

As for Ron, who was further behind, he was directly ignored by Fudge, who only remembered that it should be a Weasley ghost.

"Voldemort is alive, Mr. Minister! I once saw him with my own eyes! Harry's first words shocked everyone present.

Fudge froze, and the Aurors looked a little panicked.

But Harry didn't mean to stop at all, and he continued eagerly to speak. "He's coming back soon, planning to slaughter a Muggle village to restore his power, and if we can't stop him in time, it's all over!"
