Surprised and delighted to complete the first task, Draco and the others had a low morale at first, but now they felt as if they were playing Quidditch when they were clearly behind but caught the Snitch and directly won the whole game.Now the morale is high, and the reorganization of the team seems to be at full speed, swimming towards the direction of the mermaid village.

The audience on the lake also cheered up the entire Black Lake for this good deed, especially the students of Hogwarts, seeing that their team took the lead in finding the first thing, they danced happily.

We can’t be so biased towards the organizers, so let’s report to the other two teams. After Durmstrang’s communication, the current situation is still very good. They are looking for bugs, and they are very close to the algae area where Harry and the others caught bugs just now. , It's just that in addition to algae and bugs, there is a grumpy octopus that has broken free from the algae. Everyone really hopes to remind them to bypass that area and find another safe place.

As for the Beauxbaton team in the all-female group, under the leadership and command of the professor, they no longer moved forward blindly like they did at the beginning.They united and worked hard to explore, and now they are also swimming towards the algae area. I don't know if they can also escape the riot of the octopus and catch the little bugs they are looking for.

Beauxbaton's team seems to be lucky today. Of course, it is also possible that the octopus likes beautiful women and does not like handsome men. Durmstrang team.While Octopus and the Durmstrang team were chasing after each other, Beauxbaton's professor representative had sent three students to the algae area, and Liz and the others quickly swam over to avoid this opportunity.And their professor, she stood by to prevent the octopus or Durmstrang team from coming to harass.

Probably because of Harry's big move before, and now that the octopus and Durmstrang teams are constantly chasing after them, the place is too chaotic, and the little bugs are hiding very tightly. It took the three girls a long time to catch up. The arrest was successful.Durmstrang, who was chasing with the octopus, took some time to get rid of the octopus, and also worked hard to catch the small bug, making up for the delayed time as soon as possible.

When the teams of the three schools were still completing their tasks in the dark and surging black lake, when almost everyone on the edge of the black lake was attracted by the huge magic screen on the lake, Snape and Rogers slowly Backed away from the crowd, avoiding the sight of those who were interested in them, and walked steadily towards the Forbidden Forest.

When they came to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, under the tall trees, little Kate was waiting for them there.Kate was noticing Snape and Rogers walking towards it, and it ran towards Rogers with small steps.

[Steve, Prince. 】Little Kate, who was watching the game of the friends by the Black Lake today, was called by the equally important friends in the Forbidden Forest before the game started, and now she wants to call the friends by the Black Lake to help.

"Kate, are you okay?" Rutgers and the others didn't know what was going on. He had been wondering why Kate didn't come since this morning.Having just received the message from Biscuit, he and Snape explained to Professor Flitwick next to them, and immediately came towards the Forbidden Forest.

[Kate is fine, it's Ganymedes and the others, they found a strange person. 】Kate shook her head, then turned and walked towards the Forbidden Forest, and motioned for Rogers and the others to follow.

When they entered the Forbidden Forest, they saw a man lying on the ground in a wet and mossy place. Standing not far from that man was Ganymedes the centaur.Ganymedes noticed that someone was coming, and he looked up at Kate and the others. Unlike other centaurs who were alienated from wizards, Ganymedes has always been cheerful and likes to make friends of different races. He often has a smiling face at this time Frowning.

[Ganymedes. 】Kate walked up to Ganymedes and kissed him affectionately, but this couldn't make Ganymedes smile again.

Ganymede looked at Rogers and Snape, and said in English, "This wizard fell down suddenly."

Being vigilant, Rogers and Snape stopped not far from the fallen man, Rogers first asked Ganymede: "When did he come here?"

"In the morning, it was full of darkness, and I was still talking all the way, and finally sat here. Kate went to find you just now, and he fell down not long after." Ganymedes and Rogers met several times We have interacted several times, especially with Professor Snape who regarded the Forbidden Forest as a library of natural materials, and even chatted several times.Ganymedes' English is not very good, and then Ganymedes spoke to Kate in a round of centaur language.

[Ganymedes said that it was too late for this person to keep talking, what little Crouch, and what mysterious person was mentioned. 】Kate acted as an interpreter, telling Rogers and Snape what Ganymede said.

"Little Crouch?" Snape drew out his wand and asked Rogers to wait here with the two beasts. He slowly walked towards the lying man who was lying dead or alive.

Slowly approaching Snape, he also felt the aura of black magic, which is only caused by long-term use of black magic. He did not believe that a person who had died a long time ago would appear in Hogwarts, let alone a Hogwarts could let him in with such a strong dark magic aura.It's just that no one has mentioned this name for a long time, and there are really not many people who can still remember this fanatical Death Eater who died in Azkaban long ago. Could it be that he is not dead and controlled?So if this person is really Crouch Jr., what happened when he appeared at Hogwarts?

With all kinds of questions like this, Snape approached the lying person, squatted down slowly, and could clearly see the person's face from his direction.Snape took his unicorn hair gloves out of his pocket, lifted the man's head, then took off the gloves again, resting his fingers under the man's nose to measure the man's body. Not breathing.

"Steve, tell Minerva to bring a few people here. This is Director Crouch who has been missing today." Snape stood up again, and then continued: "He's not dead yet, but if he Sooner or later, he has been under the Imperius Curse for quite a while, I'll tell Bobby to get ready." Snape used the Patronus Charm to tell Madam Pontrey to get ready.

Not long after, Professor McGonagall came over with two people who seemed to be Lucius in the Ministry of Magic. It seemed that Lucius also understood the situation. To the surprise of Rutgers and the others, Dumbledore also came. .After Dumbledore said hello, he walked to Crouch who was still lying on the ground and breathing weakly. He waved his wand and cast a few tranquilizing spells to stabilize Crouch's mood and prevent the Imperius Curse from ruining his mind. brain.

"Minerva, please take Batty to Bobby for an examination, and send him to Saint-Germont after the examination is complete." Dumbledore sighed, stood up, and his good assistant Professor McGonagall said.

Professor McGonagall nodded, and directed two Ministry of Magic staff to take Crouch out of the Forbidden Forest.

Looking at the back of the three people leaving with Crouch, Ganymedes felt that there was nothing wrong with him. It said goodbye to the three people and one beast, and ran back to the depths of the forbidden forest after a while.

"Why don't you come here, the competition is not over yet." Rutgers asked Dumbledore, how did Dumbledore, one of the judges, leave the judge's seat with half an hour before the stipulated hour of the competition.

"The old man will always feel a little uncomfortable, but I should go back, please take a look around here, so as not to miss anything or details." Dumbledore swept away the depression just now, and blinked mischievously After blinking, he checked the time, and he was indeed going back to the Black Lake.

When Dumbledore was using Apparatus, Snape could still be vaguely seen saying, "Look out for those little trolls."

Leaving Rogers, Snape, and Kate in the Forbidden Forest, they followed Kate along the route that Ganymede had said before, and walked all the way to check around.While walking in the Forbidden Forest, Rutgers and Snape were still guessing about Crouch, wondering if he was controlled by Death Eaters, and whether it was his that Harry and the others were called warriors. handwriting.However, Crouch's mind was very clear at that time, and he didn't seem to be controlled by the Imperius Curse.

Rogers, Kate and Snape walked out of the Forbidden Forest slowly, and when they were about to walk back to the lively Black Lake, they saw Sirius and Lupine not far away, looking like they were waiting for them, Roger Si guessed that Dumbledore might have told them about the Forbidden Forest and told them to come here and wait. If they found anything, there would be helpers who could rush there as soon as possible.

"How? Did you find anything else?" Although Sirius had matured a lot, he still couldn't change his temper. He stepped forward and immediately asked about the situation.

"I didn't find it all the way. Now I can only confirm that Crouch's situation is not optimistic. I hope he can wake up." Rutgers briefly talked about the situation. They had enough doubts along the way. I just can't figure it out.The most important thing now is Crouch himself. He can solve his doubts when he wakes up. If he is really like the worst outcome Severus said, he was driven into a lunatic by the Imperius Curse, then what? I can't understand it anymore.

"Well, let's put this in advance. It's better for us to rush back before Harry's game is over, so as not to arouse suspicion." After hearing this, Lupine probably understood that even his son, who was serious and old-fashioned, could helplessly watch Barty Crouch, who was determined to be tried and imprisoned, did not expect to be so carelessly controlled by someone with the Imperius Curse, and he was under control for a short time. It is unbelievable.

Everyone can only wait for the time being, hoping that Crouch can wake up.
