Chapter 259 Peter, Rush Out, You Can Do It!

Voldemort didn't know where this was.

Voldemort actually didn't care much about where Muggles lived, but when Snape said this seriously, it meant that there must be something different here.

"This is Crouch's home."

Snape glanced at the round iron door. Seeing the flash of surprise in Voldemort's eyes, Snape explained softly: "You are right, the Director of Legal Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic almost killed the Death Eaters." Mr. Barty Crouch Sr. is cornered..."

When the Death Eaters followed Voldemort and wreaked havoc in the wizarding world, in addition to Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix being their most powerful enemies, the Aurors led by Barty Crouch Sr. were also the trouble they were afraid of avoiding.

Compared to Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix, Barty Crouch Sr. personally applied for permission to allow the Aurors to use the Unforgivable Curse on dark wizards, allowing Voldemort and the Death Eaters to capture the British Ministry of Magic and get involved in it. power is far away.

There is no doubt about it.

If we are serious, during the Wizarding War, Dumbledore was the most terrifying person to Voldemort, then Barty Crouch Sr. was the most hated person by the Death Eaters, and once forced the Death Eaters to disappear. .

Although Old Barty was a big trouble to the Death Eaters, Voldemort's lips clearly had a disdainful sneer: "It turns out he is Little Barty's father..."

Barty Crouch Jr.

Voldemort couldn't help but think of his favorite Death Eaters, and Barty Crouch Jr. was undoubtedly one of them. Even back then, Voldemort was very interested in playing a father-son game with Barty Crouch Jr., and he was considered one of them. He dotes on little Barty and treats the little Barty who has taken refuge under his command as his own child, allowing little Barty to use his name to attack wizards.

later…

Voldemort possessed Quirrell and even inquired about the Death Eaters. Among them, Barty Crouch Jr. died shortly after being sent to Azkaban by his father Barty Crouch Sr. It made Voldemort feel a little regretful.

"Buddy...is my favorite child..."

Voldemort thought of the sinister young man, and the sadness in his eyes flashed: "I heard... he died in Azkaban?"

Barty Crouch Jr. liked to imitate him in everything, and finally died for the Death Eaters' beliefs. Voldemort could not help but feel a little sorry for that sinister young man, especially when a group of Death Eaters betrayed him...

"I used to think so too..."

Snape shook his head calmly, his eyes fixed on the round iron door, but the conversation suddenly changed direction: "But...I found something a little different..."

"Barty Crouch Jr....always lives."

"In a sense, I saw with my own eyes that a somewhat crazy colleague was personally sent to Azkaban by his father under the Wizengamot Court. I heard that he was fast in less than half a year. Tortured to death by dementors..."

"indeed."

"He didn't have a good father."

"But he has an enviable mother."

When Snape said this, he sighed with some sadness in his eyes: "According to my speculation, it was his mother, Mrs. Crouch, who drank a large amount of polyjuice potion and forced her husband to replace him with her. His own son."

"Because I have been looking for your Horcrux..."

"Barty Crouch Jr. is your favorite. I guess you are likely to put a Horcrux on him, so I have been paying attention to him."

"When the news of his death came from Azkaban, I tried to get his body, hoping that there would be some clues on him..."

When he said this, Snape's voice paused before continuing: "However... when I checked... I found that Barty Jr.'s body had taken a large amount of Polyjuice Potion..."

"There's no way this kind of thing could be hidden from me."

"When I restored his body to its original appearance, I saw the appearance of Mrs. Crouch. Mrs. Crouch died in Azkaban instead of Barty Jr....

She even took too much Polyjuice Potion during her lifetime, so that when she died, she still looked like her own son... It's really..."

"Pretty great maternal love."

"..."

Voldemort couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

Almost all dark wizards in the magical world have not received any maternal love since childhood, and Voldemort is no exception. His mother should be the most irresponsible.

He was given only the name of his father and dumped in an orphanage...

maternal love…

It's a luxury for them.

Fortunately, he no longer cares about those useless feelings.

"so…"

Voldemort glanced at the phantom of the magical lightsaber formed by the Shadowless Curse embedded in his body, and frowned hesitantly: "Little Barty is still alive?"

What a hassle!

The most troublesome thing about the Shadowless Curse is that the wounds caused by it cannot be healed. Only Snape's own counter-curse specially developed for the Shadowless Curse can alleviate it!

"He must still be alive."

Snape looked at Voldemort's eyes, with a smile on his lips, and continued softly: "When I realized that Mrs. Crouch died in Azkaban on behalf of her son, I vaguely guessed the truth..."

"As long as the established results are obtained..."

"It's not difficult to reason about the process."

This kind of thing...

This Snape impersonator was particularly good at it.

This is not a mathematical problem that needs to be proved. As long as the logic is smooth, any process he wants can be easily deduced from the results.

"Little Barty is still alive, which is the best news for me."

Snape continued slowly: "I have always guessed that he has a high probability of holding your Horcrux..."

"..."

A sneer flashed across Voldemort's face.

Although he was privately willing to believe that Barty Crouch Jr. was loyal to him, he also knew that Barty Crouch Jr. was deeply restricted by his father, Barty Sr., and he did not think that Barty Crouch Jr. could hide it from his father. What a Horcrux!

so…

Voldemort never gave any Horcrux to Barty Jr.!

However, Snape's next words made Voldemort's smile freeze on his face: "Unfortunately, before I had time to find his traces, Peter Pettigrew almost destroyed your Horcrux, leaving only I got the diary that he wanted to use to learn black magic..."

"..."

Oh shit!

That bastard Peter Pettigrew!

That bastard teamed up with Bellatrix to find all his Horcruxes!

The anger on Voldemort's face was undisguised. His hatred for Peter Pettigrew was undoubtedly the highest, even less than his hatred for Harry Potter and Snape...

As for Dumbledore…

I can only queue up on his hate list...

"What's interesting is that this doesn't mean it's the end of the story."

When Snape said this, it was obvious that he was talking about interesting things, and his eyes became cold again: "Little Barty is still alive in this world, and he still has his uses. He can be used to become a threat. Barty Crouch Sr., the high-ranking official of the Ministry of Magic, has a handle on him..."

"Mr. Barty Crouch Sr. has been hiding the news that his son is still alive in the world. For this reason, he even adopted the talented little guy Wesson Wright. It seems that he wants to use the well-known The adopted son covers people’s ears and eyes…”

"..."

Voldemort thought of the Hufflepuff student at Hogwarts. That little guy seemed to be a very hard-working little wizard. It turned out that he was being targeted by Old Barty Crouch?

Ah…

How sad.

When Voldemort thought of this, his brain couldn't help but start thinking.

Barty Crouch Sr. treats his adopted son with indifference. Maybe he can take advantage of this and let the brat Wesson be a sharp blade in his hand...

wrong.

Now is not the time to think about this!

Voldemort's brain quickly returned to reason. At this time, how could he think of Wesson Wright, that irrelevant kid? The only thing he had to do was to get out of here!

"What a pity."

When Snape said this, there was indeed some regret on his face: "Mr. Crouch wanted to use Wesson's innocent child as a flag to hide from others, but he still did not hide it from the eyes of those who were interested. The wizarding world has always been There aren’t many secrets…”

"That idiot Peter seems to have some unusual intuition in this regard. He also found out that Barty Jr. is still alive, and his thoughts are the same as mine. He also wants to use this matter as a threat to Old Barty Crow. What a clue to that high-level official of the Ministry of Magic."

"But what he doesn't know is..."

"Barty Crouch Sr.'s handle..."

"I've always known it, but I've never used it."

A hint of sarcasm flashed across Snape's lips, and he continued softly: "When I recovered Lily's soul and wanted to use everything I had to resurrect Lily...

"That idiot Peter..."

"I finally realized that I have always been deeply in love with Lily!"

"..."

Voldemort's eyes twitched.

Didn't Snape think about his own problems when he said this?

This bastard hides his feelings for Lily that witch so deeply. How many people can see it, but Lily Evans herself can't see it!

"That idiot..."

"I know I made a big mistake..."

Snape's voice gradually became colder, and the murderous intent in his eyes was barely concealed: "After he helped me destroy or collect all your Horcruxes...he guessed...I will definitely kill him...so he The hiding place has been prepared in advance."

"That mouse...is hiding here?"

Voldemort's eyes immediately became gloomy.

Although he also hated Snape extremely, after hearing Snape's stories before, he already knew that Peter Pettigrew, that little mouse, made his own decisions...

That timid mouse…

He is the person he hates the most!

"That's right."

Snape slowly turned his head to look at the basement and continued softly: "The whole house is full of magic traps, and there is even a safe house that is more secret than anywhere else. Even Muggle wars cannot destroy it..."

"here…"

"It should be the hiding place prepared by Mr. Barty Crouch Sr. for his son. When Peter was tracing your Horcrux, he also found out about Barty Jr., and he threatened Mr. Crouch to hide him in Here, I hope you can escape my pursuit.”

"However…"

"The handle he holds..."

"I have it in my hands as well."

"When I revealed everything to Mr. Crouch, he very much hoped that I could help him eliminate Peter's threat and change the safe house's secret keeper to me..."

"..."

Voldemort's eyes became slightly strange.

The Dark Lord couldn't help but look at the circular iron door, which was obviously where Peter Pettigrew was hiding...

There…

There is someone he wants to kill the most!

Snape raised his palm and raised his wand slightly. A ray of light flashed through the curse and landed directly on the circular iron door.

"The Alajo hole opens."

With the magic of the opening spell, the extremely thick circular iron door slowly opened, revealing a long passage.

The sound of the circular iron door opening was very heavy.

Even the two people and a house elf living in the safe house heard it.

Barty Crouch Jr., who had been living in the safe house, was lying in a mess of paper scraps. He had long torn up all the books in the safe house and no longer knew what to do with it for entertainment. The only thing that was remotely entertaining was beating up Peter Pettigrew!

But now...

Suddenly I heard the sound of the iron door opening!

Little Barty Crouch's eyes instantly ignited with hope, his skinny body jumped up, and he hurriedly wanted to run to the iron gate to see what was going on!

"Crouch!"

Peter Pettigrew suddenly grabbed his arm, his eyes widened and he gritted his front teeth and whispered: "Have you thought about it clearly! Help me create chaos and let me get out of here! As long as I can find my master, we will If you can take back the Resurrection Stone, you can go see your mother by yourself at that time without having to beg that brat, he must be playing tricks on you!"

Since Peter Pettigrew was imprisoned here, he has been trying to convince Barty Crouch Jr. to help him escape from here almost every day...

As long as Barty Crouch Jr. can cause chaos!

Peter Pettigrew looked at Barty Crouch Jr., whose eyes instantly dropped when he heard about the Resurrection Stone, and continued in a low voice: "I have clearly remembered the way outside. As long as you can create chaos, I will definitely be able to Get out of here and find your master!”

Since these days…

Peter Pettigrew never gave up.

When he was imprisoned, he remembered how many traps there were in the basement and always remembered the safest way. He would remember it a hundred times every day...

to be honest…

Peter Pettigrew is going crazy!

This is also Peter Pettigrew's only living obsession!

"do not forget!"

Peter Pettigrew gritted his teeth and whispered: "That kid is a real devil. He plays tricks on everyone in the magical world. Do you really think he will really let you see your mother like this?"

As he spoke, Peter Pettigrew gritted his teeth and continued to emphasize in a low voice: "Instead of waiting for his favor, it is better for me to escape first and find the master. That brat... is the cruelest person in the world!"

"..."

Barty Crouch Jr. was silent for a moment.

There was no need for Peter Pettigrew to tell him...

That brat Wesen is really not a good guy...

Barty Crouch Jr. suddenly raised his head, a flash of madness and sinisterness flashed in his eyes, as if he had turned into that crazy Death Eater again. He suddenly looked at the house elf: "Winky, what is it now?" time!"

"It should be...it should be night..."

The house elf Sparkle was so frightened that she could barely speak.

Barty Crouch Jr. glanced at the date marks he remembered on a piece of paper, and said coldly: "It should be the end of May and the beginning of June. Hogwarts hasn't had the holidays yet, and that brat is still here. At school, it should be the old guy who comes to deliver supplies to us...I'll help you attract his attention...You become your own Animagus and find your master!"
