Chapter 385 383. Granger's Bureau
Snape didn't make a sound, he just listened quietly to Barty Jr.'s continuation, he knew that he didn't need to be a fan, and Barty Jr. would tell all his plans by himself, because tonight was the final result of his knowledge when.
"I told you before that I investigated a lot of information about Jon Green, not only before he entered the carriage, but also after he entered the carriage to go to school. I also specifically went to the Ministry of Magic. The Sly fools have learned a few things. Among them are the girls Jon Green was closest to at school."
"From him, I learned that the only mudblood girl he rescued from the castle in front of everyone in the whole carriage—Hermione Granger has a closer relationship with him, that fool thought I was He wanted to hear his grievances, and told me that when he had a quarrel with Jon Green, this girl surnamed Granger defended Jon Green from the sidelines. Such a thing is perfectly normal, The hero saves the beauty, and love at first sight is not uncommon in the magical world or the dirty society of Muggles. If you have to choose a dance partner to participate in the ball, then Jon Green's most likely choice is this girl named Herbert. Min's girl."
"After reaching this conclusion, it couldn't be easier to investigate Hermione. She lived in the castle for more than a year, and not all the Mudbloods who were at the same level as her were rescued together. I extracted a few memories of Mudbloods who knew her, and it became very clear what kind of character this girl is. Brave, kind and compassionate, ha, at first glance, they are all weaknesses, and she is a simple and easy target It may not be easy to deceive Jon Green about some things. That boy doesn't look like a student of this age at all. Some things seem to be clear to him at a glance, and such a boy is also fifteen years old. It’s much easier to attack a little girl whose name doesn’t change.”
Little Barty squinted, looked through the crowd with a smile on Hermione's right hand raised to the candlelight, and a white bracelet on it was not conspicuous.
"See, the bait has been successfully hung on the hook. As long as the bait you made is sure that there will be no problems, then we will have a good show tonight."
Snape's voice was calm, he didn't look at the bracelet Hermione made by himself, but looked at the candlesticks floating in the mid-air of the auditorium, the bright candlelight reflected on his hands Empty eyes.
"The potions I have refined have not made a single mistake so far. If you had doubts about my ability, you would not have approached me to share the credit that should have been all yours. "
Little Barty crossed his legs and leaned on the back of the chair relaxedly. He watched the dancing candlesticks gradually gather in the center of the auditorium, and after a band wearing tattered non-mainstream clothes appeared, the entire auditorium began to panic. became quieter.
"Then let us appreciate it slowly."
As his voice fell, melodious music sounded softly in the already quiet auditorium, which also indicated that today's dance was about to begin.
When the lantern on the table went out, Jon pulled Hermione up from the chair, and Diane and George stood up beside them.
Not only them, but also Draco dragging the girl named Pansy, and Emil holding the girl named Selwyn in his arms, and danced to the center of the auditorium with the sad and quiet music.
They were being watched by everyone around them, and Jon always felt a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, the dance steps he had practiced with Rozier for two full months finally played a role, and he didn't accidentally step on Hermione Such stupid things as those white feet.
"To be honest, I always feel that you and Professor Dumbledore are hiding something from me."
Jon's face was very close to Hermione's, and he could even clearly feel each other's warm breath. It was the first time he was so close to a girl, and he had no interest in dancing itself. So simply find some topics to talk about at this time.
"It's not hiding from you, but the professor said that you have already occupied enough energy to deal with the game, so there is no need to let you know about some things we can handle."
Jon put his arms around Hermione's slender waist and turned around in a circle.
"Then do you have any actions tonight?"
"You really want to know?"
Hermione looked at Jon, she blinked her long eyelashes, and her eyes reflected by the candlelight were like stars twinkling in the dark night.
"Maybe you can talk to me about that part of me?"
Hearing what he said, Hermione couldn't help laughing, and the corner of her mouth curled into a beautiful arc, as if it overshadowed everything around her.
Jon was a little puzzled by Hermione's answer. He felt that he had been living a leisurely life these days, either going fishing or on the way to go fishing. How could it all have something to do with him.
"We will take a break in the middle of the dance, and then I will go to the bathroom, and then there will be another one who will come back and sit with you in the auditorium for a while, and finally go out for a walk in the garden."
Hermione didn't continue to play charades, she stuck to Jon's ear, and whispered while changing dance steps following the melody.
"There will be a lot of people staring at us, especially those two who are behind me now."
Jon pretended to raise his head inadvertently, and then he saw Barty Crouch Jr. who was leisurely leaning on the recliner on the high platform, and Severus Severus, who seemed to have been expressionless for three hundred and sixty-five days. snape.
"They have plans to target us today?"
Just a simple turn of his mind, Jon can guess that the reason must be that these two people are playing tricks.
"Remember the half-blood girl in the castle who had a good relationship with me before?"
"Yes, I still remember her name is Asia Conrad."
"Why do you remember people's names so clearly? Especially when you danced with a lady, you said it so openly."
"Ahem, cough, it's nothing, I just thought you were too close to her, don't be tricked by others."
"She's not a liar, she's just been used by a group of bad liars. I've always kept a distance from the students in the castle, no matter who they are. At that time, you didn't wonder why I suddenly met with Asia Is it that close?"
"I thought you were bored in the carriage."
"No matter how boring I am, I know how to measure it. It is dangerous to come into contact with anyone or anything in the castle at this time. You were also there on the day I saved her from those pure-blood students. Wait for Asia to go back From now on, I will always pay attention to her movements and who she has contacted in the castle on the Marauder's Map. This is the greatest advantage we have. With the Marauder's Map, these people in the castle are equal to We have no secrets, and they don't even know it."
"So you saw Crouch or Snape contacting Asia on the Marauder's Map?"
"To be precise, there is only Barty Crouch. He has been in contact with Asia, but each time the contact time is very short, and it seems that the two just met inadvertently in the castle, but even if It's just that, it also allowed me to make a conclusion, that is, regardless of whether Asia knew it or not, the contact between her and me must have something to do with Crouch. After confirming this matter, I immediately went to Deng Professor Bullido, that is, the evening of the day we rescued Asia."
"The professor asked you not to speak up?"
"Professor Dumbledore said that their ultimate goal must be you, and using Asia to contact me is probably just using me as a springboard. The professor didn't say how to deal with it. He said he wanted to hear my opinion. I was still skeptical about whether Asia knew what she was doing, so I decided to spend some time with her before taking a look, and then I discovered the second problem."
Hermione slightly shook her hand on his shoulder at Jon, and the sound of the white beads on the bracelet hitting each other was very crisp.
"My mother used to wear this bracelet, but I also remember it very clearly. When my father gave this gift to my mother, he said that it was a commemorative item of that year. There were not many sold in total. This one is still mine. Dad was lucky enough to get the qualification to buy it, and after that, the same style was never sold again. But at that time, Asia told me that it was given to her by her mother on her 11th birthday. It is certain that this was definitely not given to her by her mother, but someone found the exact same bracelet as my mother and handed it to her, in order to attract my attention, and the whole Hogwarts The only person in the Castle who has ever met my mother is Barty Crouch who took me away from home."
Jon couldn't help feeling a little lost when he heard Hermione's calm analysis. He didn't forget that Hermione was really only fifteen years old!
"It was the day when I found out that there was a problem with this bracelet. I was sure that Asia was kept in the dark from the beginning to the end. She was bullied in Hogwarts Castle and planned to sacrifice herself in exchange for the safety of her family. Ordinary girl. At the same time, I found Professor Dumbledore, told him all my discoveries, and discussed with him that maybe we can use this as a springboard to finally plot against you to complete some We have been struggling with how to complete the plan."
