Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2522 manonamission (fifteen)

   Barty Crouch Jr. was unremarkable when he was in school.

It can't be said that he is average, he has good grades, his father is the director of the executive department of the Ministry of Magic, and he also plays the Hufflepuff Quidditch team as a batter, but he is completely by Sirius Black and Jan. Am Potter, the two dazzling men, covered it up.

Not to mention Sirius, James Potter is a very good Seeker, although he is not as old as Victor Bloom, but when he wears a red jersey and rides on a broom chasing the Snitch , which looks like a burning fireball.

The Hufflepuff team, as always, does not have much desire to win or lose, especially after Sirius' younger brother Regulus entered the Slytherin team and served as a seeker, in order not to get injured in the game, everyone Very wisely, he stepped aside to protect himself, after all, it was not worth the effort to fight for the school-level competition.

   Bella married Lestrange a few years after graduation and became the most loyal Death Eater. Probably because of this, she prefers Regulus to inherit the Black family rather than Sirius. Regulus has shown his admiration for the mysterious man since he entered school. At that time, Sirius had no time to care about his younger brother. He was busy learning Animagus and making a Marauder's Map. For these He even quit the Quidditch team.

Regulus is riveting on Quidditch, which makes his match with James Potter a certain danger on the court. Not only are they fast on their brooms, but Regulus will occasionally use Some of the little tricks that Bella might have taught him, and Jaime came close to getting them several times. Although James did not mention these things and deliberately provoked the brother relationship between Regulus and Sirius, the relationship between Regulus and Sirius is indeed getting weaker and weaker, especially after Sirius ran away from home, they They don't say hello to each other when they meet at school.

Pomona never thought of improving Regulus's relationship with Sirius, she was still afraid of Bella, as long as she thought of Bella's beautiful, but cruelly arrogant face, she lost her courage, except to run away Without other ideas, how could she dare to spoil Bella's "good thing"?

Sirius and Bella were cousins, but they hated each other. During Azkaban's imprisonment, they were held in cells not far from each other. Bella was still mentally provoking Sirius at first, but she may not have the strength later. Food is much less.

   She is one of the few prisoners who has been imprisoned for more than 10 years like Sirius and is still alive. Even if there is no torture of the Longbottoms, Bella's crimes are enough to be imprisoned in Azkaban.

  According to the rules, dementors can only kiss people who are dying. Bella has lived for so many years, and the righteous teachers who used to follow old Buddy Crouch want to "send" her a ride. But today is different from the past. In the past, old Barty Crouch gave the righteous division a lot of privileges, such as killing on the spot, without the need for arrest and trial. Now that these are gone, if the righteous master doesn't want to become a prisoner of Azkaban himself, he can only watch Bella "jumping alive".

  Some people have also tried to use mental torture to make Bella break herself, but soon he found that this dark woman may be worse than a dementor, and a dementor can make you feel happy at most.

   Sirius didn't ask why Barty Crouch Jr would go with Bella to torture the Longbottoms, even though he had 12 years to spare.

   After having a full meal, Sirius sent Pomona away. The "noisy" just now should have alerted the Aurors. If they went to school at this time, she happened to be absent, and there might be a lot of trouble.

  Pomona didn't say no. Although she brought a lot of delicious food, Sirius was still very weak, only slightly better than when we first met last month.

   "Have you ever thought about giving yourself a bath?" When Sirius approached, Pomona smelled the stench on his body, and she held back her nose without pinching her nose.

   "How about some more shampoo?" Sirius quipped.

   "How did you become so sloppy!" she said resentfully.

   "I have other more important things to do, have you found Ron's rat?" Sirius asked.

   "I didn't find it, I used the Flying Spell..."

   "He can't be summoned by the Flying Curse." Sirius interrupted her.

   "Why?" she said in confusion. "What's so magical about that mouse? The Flying Charm can summon all animals."

   Sirius was silent, he stood at the door of the cave, looking at Hogwarts Castle in the distance.

   "Do you remember that sentence on the Marauder's map?" Sirius asked.

   "Which sentence?"

   "It's good to leave." Sirius said sullenly. "This is the first sentence that appears after the map is finished. It forms the walls and classrooms of the castle, like this is what the castle told me."

   "I didn't look that closely," Pomona said. "The Marauder's map is in Remus's hands now."

   She briefly explained how the Marauder's Map went from Harry's hand to Remus's.

   "You showed up near the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom that day to find Remus?" Pomona asked.

   "It's late, go back quickly." Sirius seemed to be about to say something else, but he changed his words.

   She did not continue to ask, and seeing the current Sirius, she felt even more that he could not be the dark wizard who blew up a street.

   She walked down the rugged mountain road for a while and looked back at the entrance of the lower cave, where Sirius was still standing.

   "After so much, do you still feel blessed to leave Hogwarts?" Pomona said in a voice he could only hear, then turned his head and continued down the mountain.

   She didn't take the path from Hogsmeade to Hogwarts, but after drinking the potion, she changed back to Professor Sprout and swaggered into Hogsmeade.

   Sure enough, there were dementors patrolling the streets, and they kept staring at Pomona, as if they would come and kiss her at any moment.

   She pretended that she didn't care, and walked into the Honey Duke with her head held high. After buying a lot of snacks, she returned to the castle through the secret passage below the Honey Duke.

   It turned out that Sirius was right, the Dementors really couldn't smell the scent, although the process of verifying it made her heart beat hard.

   Then she went to take a shower in the bathroom dedicated to teachers, intending to wash off the ashes from her body.

   However, when she took off the cloak, she found that there was actually a hairy crab stuck on it.

   "Oh, Sirius Black, it's you!" she couldn't help exclaiming.

  Although hairy crabs are parasitic on the bodies of augury and swallowtail dogs, as long as the owner takes good care of them, the dog's hair will be as smooth as Draco Malfoy's hair, and there can be no hairy crabs at all.

  Is Sirius Animagus a dog in the wizarding world after his transformation? The hairy crab seems to think so, otherwise how could the hairy crab parasitize him?

   She took a bath with this question, then hummed a song, and returned to the cellar refreshingly.

   "The door to the castle is closed, how did you get in?"

   Then a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the darkness, and she narrowed her eyes subconsciously.

   "Put the wand down!" she warned.

The    wand was put down, revealing Snape's face like spoiled milk.

   "Why are you waiting for me here?"

   "What have you been doing?" he asked.

   "I went out." As she said, she took out the large pocket full of gold coins from the flannel pocket, shook it in her hand, and there was a crisp sound inside.

  Snape looked at her calmly.

   "With this, see if you can convince Albus not to dissect the Basilisk." She said helplessly.

   "How did you get it?"

   "The plants in the greenhouse...things that are forbidden to trade." She said under his gaze.

   "You're a criminal," he said suddenly.

   She felt angry and put away the purse, "Forget it, you can find a way by yourself."

"The basilisk's hide and scales are resistant to most magic, including black magic, and Albus thinks it can make armor," Snape said slowly, "in light of the fact that the Death Eaters have become more frequent these days. Activity."

   She was stunned, clutching the purse.

  Snapmer silently took out a small bottle.

"what is this?"

   "The potion to destroy hairy crabs, you asked me to do it."

   "Oh, thank you." She took the potion, but Snape took her purse, counted 20 Galleons from it, and gave it back to her.

   "I can't believe it." She said in surprise, "You actually charge me!"

   "Trust me, it's not the price someone asks me to dispense." He said through gritted teeth.

   She was also in a bad mood and took the purse, and then the old bat walked away with great strides.

   Halfway through, he also turned off the fluorescent flashes. I really don't know how he could identify the direction in the darkness.

   "Looks like he's really turned into a bat. He has a sonar system." She said entertainingly, pushed open the door and walked into the office.

===================================================== ========

   "Why is she still here?"

  Georgianna looked in the direction of the person discussing...

   "I wonder if you've heard of Madame Estrad." Bertin said immediately before her smile froze.

   "No." She said with a smile.

"The king got used to her and liked her eloquence, even though Madame Pompidou knew that she was secretly supporting Madame Choisel to seize her position, Madame Pompidou could not expel her from the court, only the king could do that. "

  Georgianna endured the fire and looked at Bertin with a smile: "Don't always mention Madame Pompidou."

  Beltin shook his head. "Besides telling jokes, Madame Pompidou is one of the few women in the palace who knows when and how to make a fuss. Do you know who the Duke of Choiseul is?"

"Know."

"He was busy dealing with the 'diplomatic revolution', so he placed Madame Choiseul at the court, she was only 17 years old at the time, the king liked her very much and wrote to her, she was not sure what to do next, So she asked Madame Estrad for her opinion, and an officer named Gontor, and they told her that very few people at court would object to such a family-friendly relationship. But there was a little problem at the time , the young Madame Choiseul made the acquaintance of the Earl of Stanville..."

   "Wait..." Georgiana began to do mental arithmetic.

   "The Earl of Stanwell is the cousin of the Duke of Choiseul. He inherited the title of the Duke of Choisel's father, the Marquis of Stanwell." Bertin said.

   "Wow~" Georgiana exclaimed involuntarily, the young people of today, no, the young people of the past...

"She is dead," Bertin said with a smile. "The young Madame Choisel died in childbirth at the age of 19. After her errands, the Duke of Choiseul took Madame Choiseul away from the court, when she pregnant."

   "Who is the father of the child?" asked Georgiana.

"What I want to tell you is that you want to learn from Madame Pompidou, when and how to make a fuss." Bertin emphasized, "Before the plan was implemented, Madame Pompidou saw Madame Choisel, Ace Mrs Trad was as polite as ever."

   "What plan?" asked Georgiana.

   "I'll tell you later, now, you have to go over and say hello to her, remember what I just told you, and keep smiling."

  Georgianna put on a smile under Bertin's gaze, and then the two walked towards Madame de Vaudet together.
