Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 261 Crouch is crazy

Istel Carrow did not break his promise. He re-invited Draco back to the Slytherin team and remained the Seeker. They started training shortly after the Easter break, as Nydia was still a member of the Gryffindor team, so she couldn't watch the other teams training.

However, Nidia's days are not idle. In addition to completing homework in various subjects, she also brews some potions and practices some spells by herself. Now the remote abandoned classroom has become Nidia's dormitory. The place where I spend the most time outside.

"What are you doing?" Draco suddenly quietly walked up behind Nydia, who was brewing the potion, and hugged her from behind. Perhaps to make up for the time they spent apart in the past few days, Draco would stay with Nydia whenever he had free time.

"Draco! You scared me!" Nidia breathed a long sigh of relief and almost spilled the potion in her hand. "Why are you here? Didn't you say there is training today?"

"Cancelled!" Draco buried his head into Nydia's neck and shoulder and rubbed it. "Our venue was requisitioned by the Ministry of Magic to serve as the venue for the final event of the Triwizard Tournament."

"The last project? Requisitioning the Quidditch venue, what do they want to do!" Nydia said with some confusion.

"I don't know...it looks like they are building a maze. They made a lot of low walls." Draco said casually.

"Maze? It shouldn't be just as simple as a maze, right?" Nidia sighed in her heart. Is she already about to start the third project? Time flies so fast!

Draco raised his head and looked at Nydia, his expression slightly unhappy, "Are you going to start worrying about Potter's third project again?"

"Of course not! You mentioned it, so I just asked casually." Nydia smiled and said, "Draco, are you jealous?"

"I was just talking casually..." Draco looked aside, trying to find something to change the topic, and then his eyes stayed on the potion that Nydia was brewing, "Are you boiling it?" What? It doesn’t look like Poisonous Wolf Potion.”

"This is Polyjuice Potion. The incident of Snape losing the bark of the African snake reminded me that I have never successfully brewed Polyjuice Potion, so I wanted to give it a try." Nydia once tried to brew it in the second grade. Polyjuice Potion, but finally gave up only halfway through.

"Then have you decided who you want to become?" Draco asked curiously.

"Well... I didn't plan to turn into anyone, I just wanted to try brewing this potion." Nidia really didn't think about the question of who she wanted to turn into. "Do you have any good suggestions?"

Draco shook his head, "To me, you look the best. You don't need to look like someone else!"

"This is not permanent, it will only last for an hour..."

Nidia lowered her head to check the potion in the crucible. Nidia was stunned by the smell of the potion. This smell... seemed to be very similar to the smell in the medicine bottle that Moody carried with him! But too much time has passed, and Nidia is not sure if she remembered it wrong. Many potions will smell similar when brewing. The polyjuice potion is not completely brewed yet, and maybe it will smell better after it is finished. It will be different...

"What are you thinking about?" Nydia's sudden daze made Draco very unhappy. He was obviously beside her, so why couldn't she pay more attention to him?

"This potion smells..."

Nydia was about to express her doubts about Polyjuice Potion when Draco suddenly breathed softly into her ear, and Nydia felt a numbness all over her body.

"Draco, don't be like this..." Nydia wanted to push away Draco who was kissing her neck, "I have something serious to do!"

"That's right...!" Draco turned Nydia to face him, leaned forward and leaned close to her cheek, "But I'm also doing business..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Draco kissed Nidia's lips. Nidia wanted to push him away, but Draco held her too tightly. The hot kiss made her gradually give up her resistance, and in her brain His thoughts became more and more blurred, and his body began to respond to Draco involuntarily.

Through the hole behind the Fat Lady's portrait, Nydia walked into the Gryffindor common room. She lowered her head all the way because she could still feel the burning sensation on her cheeks. She was least aware of it at this time. What she hoped for was to meet someone she knew, but as soon as she stepped into the common room, she saw Hermione and Ron sitting there, and they had already noticed her.

"Hey! Nydia!" Hermione waved to Nydia, as if hoping she would pass by.

"I feel tired, Hermione. I have to go back to the dormitory. Let's talk about anything in the dormitory!" Nidia waved her hand to Hermione, and then walked quickly towards the spiral staircase.

At this time, the portrait of the Fat Lady was opened again, and Harry walked in with an anxious look. He first looked at Hermione and Ron, and then turned to look at Nydia, who was about to leave.

"Nidia, wait, I have something important to tell you." Harry walked quickly to Nidia, grabbed her wrist without any explanation and pulled her to the corner where Hermione and Ron were. "It's about Crouch."

Nydia originally wanted to refuse, but she changed her mind after hearing Crouch's name. She followed Harry and tightened her collar with her other hand that was not being held.

"Today, after Mr. Buckman showed us the site of the third project, Krum asked me to go for a walk in the Forbidden Forest..." Harry began to tell the three of them about the period that had just happened.

"Krum asked you to go to the Forbidden Forest?" Hermione asked in surprise.

"Yes, Hermione, he made an appointment with me, but this is not what I want to say. Please don't interrupt me and listen to me first." Harry said impatiently. He looked really urgent. The way he wanted to talk about what he encountered.

"Sorry..." Hermione said.

"We were talking in the Forbidden Forest, and then Crouch suddenly appeared. He seemed..." Harry tried hard to find the right adjective, "Insanity! Yes, he had been talking nonsense intermittently. He It seems that he recognized me as Percy..."

"Is he crazy? You are nothing like Percy!" Ron said in surprise.

"Don't interrupt him!" Nydia said sternly to Ron. She was listening carefully to what Harry said.

"He did seem to be crazy, but when he regained his senses, he was eager to see Dumbledore. He said that he had escaped. He said that he had done terrible things. He said that Voldemort had become stronger. He also mentioned his son...it was all incoherent words," Harry recalled the situation at the time and said, "I don't know what he wanted to express, but the only thing that is certain is that he wants to see Dumbledore. Lido, so I went to find Dumbledore. I asked Krum to stay and watch him, but when I returned there with Dumbledore, Crouch had disappeared and Krum was also found. Knocked unconscious."

"According to this, either Crouch attacked Krum, or a second person attacked them both!" Hermione said.

"I didn't know it was Crouch who attacked Krum because he looked so weak." Harry shook his head.

"Is it possible that Krum was lying? He attacked Crouch and then gave himself a coma spell!" Ron guessed.

"What about Crouch? Where did he hide Crouch?" Hermione said coldly.

"So Crouch is indeed in school, right!" Nidia looked at Harry, "You did see his name on the map that night. He said he escaped, so he might be imprisoned. Somewhere in the school."

"Imprisoned in school!" Hermione frowned, "This is such a terrible idea! Dangerous people are around us!"

"That's just my guess! You can't apparate in Hogwarts, so he can't leave so quickly, so he's probably still somewhere in the school!" Nydia said, "If the Marauder's Map That’s fine, we can look for his traces on the map.”

"Yes! Map, we can ask Moody tomorrow if he has discovered anything." Harry said excitedly, "He is investigating this matter now."

"Moody! Is he also there? I thought you only called Dumbledore...you didn't mention him." Nydia asked doubtfully.

"It's like this. When I went to find Dumbledore, I met Snape. He kept stopping me from going to Dumbledore, saying that Dumbledore was very busy. To be honest, I thought this about him was very suspicious." Ha. Leigh said, "It seems that Snape met Moody after Dumbledore and I left. He told Moody what happened, so Moody rushed to the scene."

"You said Snape told Moody..." Snape hated Moody, and Nydia didn't think Snape would take the initiative to tell Moody these things.

"Yes, yes." Harry nodded, "What's the matter?"

"Nothing..." Nydia shook her head. Harry and the others would definitely trust Moody more than Snape.

"Anyway, let's see what Moody finds out tomorrow!" Hermione said.

"By the way! Harry, maybe you can tell Padfoot what happened. I think he would really like to know about you." Nydia said to Harry.

Harry nodded, "I understand. I will write to him later and tell him everything."
