Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

Chapter 297 Communication between warriors

"Ken?"

Fleur and Krum were stunned for a moment, looking at Avada who looked relaxed and nonchalant on the surface: "What's the matter?"

"That's right,"

Avada pointed to her room pretending to be distressed: "There seems to be something wrong with the faucet in my room, and I don't have a wand now. I may not be able to fix it by myself..."

As he spoke, he raised his arm intentionally or unintentionally - it had a badge made by Dumbledore attached to it.

"……All right."

Fleur and Krum looked at each other, and then, like Avada, they tried their best to look relaxed or disdainful, as if they were really going to deal with a small daily matter, and by the way, they also said to Ken " How come he can't even handle this little thing?" he said with disdain: "We are here to help you."

"Grateful."

Avada curled her lips, opened the door and turned sideways to let Fleur and Krum go in first. Then she also stepped into the room and closed the door behind her back - then, there was a crisp sound of locking the door. , after the door panel completely isolated the space inside and outside the room, the expressions that the three warriors had deliberately made disappeared in an instant.

"I have confirmed that what Crouch and Dumbledore said is true. The badge will indeed not monitor us when we are in the room."

Avada first observed Fleur and Krum's badges and confirmed that they would still automatically block the surveillance function even if they were in someone else's room before continuing: "The investigation team is lying. Ludo Bagman's The cause of death was not the so-called goblin at all, and the goblin dagger was probably used to hide his identity from others - the real cause of his death was most likely the killing curse."

"Expected."

Krum nodded unsurprisingly: "I have observed the scene of his death. Although I was too far away to see clearly, it is not difficult to see that Bagman did not resist before he died, or even noticed it at all. The arrival of death—it would make sense if it were the Killing Curse.”

"But why the killing curse?"

Fleur frowned. It seemed that she had already investigated Bagman's death scene in advance: "There should be many students outside at that time. If it was a killing curse, the perpetrator would definitely recite the curse and then be killed. Hear it. I always thought that I should first use a spell such as a petrification spell to immobilize me, and then stab me with a dagger. This can also produce the current effect..."

"It's the Killing Curse, or some other spell that has exactly the same principle as the Killing Curse."

Avada said decisively: "I have a special talent like you. I can see things that ordinary people can't see. I have seen what creatures killed by the killing curse look like before... Believe me, I know this. There’s no mistaking that.”

"Then how do you explain the incantation?"

"This is what I have always wondered about - but the point is not that. The point is that those so-called 'investigation teams from the UK' are very suspicious now..."

He subconsciously glanced in the direction of the door, then asked Krum and Fleur to sit inside again, and his voice lowered involuntarily: "You may not know that the restart of the Triwizard Tournament itself is a conspiracy. , a conspiracy against Dumbledore - this is what he told me personally, and the purpose of my participation in the competition was also to protect the students of Hogwarts at his invitation. Originally, he told me that he could solve everything by himself. , but it seems that is not the case now..."

"Is there such a thing?"

Fleur and Krum were both shocked.

"The masterminds of the conspiracy are British ultra-purists."

Avada continued: "If you have paid attention to what Dumbledore did a few years ago, you will not be surprised at all by this situation. And according to the intelligence Dumbledore has obtained, this conspiracy may even directly involve Take his life - so now that you know this, what will you think of those 'British' investigation teams?"

"It's not difficult to confirm whether he was killed by the killing curse. You just need to check the remaining vitality of the corpse. Even we can do it now. There is no reason for the professional investigation team not to check - and as long as they know about Ba Gehrman died from the killing curse, and they won't be the first to suspect the goblin!"

"……I see."

Fleur nodded solemnly: "If that's the case, it can explain why two British people were invited to be referees for a competition that was obviously held in Durmstrang. For this reason, they even did not hesitate to break the competition. Tradition."

"And our current principal is also from England."

Krum also nodded and added, but then there was some dissatisfaction and doubt in his tone: "But since Dumbledore already knew that all this was a conspiracy, why didn't he prevent it from happening from the beginning? To allow Ludo Bagman to die and to put you and me, the focus of the game, in danger?"

"So now I tell you these things."

Avada explained helplessly: "Dumbledore and I both felt at the beginning that with his strength and resourcefulness, it would be easy to crack this conspiracy perfectly, so I and others only need to enjoy the superficial experience. Calm down, Dumbledore will handle the secret crisis - but Bagman's death told me that Dumbledore is probably not that powerful. And he did not indicate anything after the incident that everything was planned. There are no signs of guilt, or any hints left, which can only mean that the development of the situation has exceeded Dumbledore's expectations."

"What's more, the three of us are obviously among those being targeted. This is evident from the coincidental suspicions we carry. That's why I need to let you know the real situation, so that at least you can It will be more possible to protect yourself in the next crisis. And if you are willing..."

"You want us to cooperate with you and take the initiative to find out the truth?"

Fleur's chin raised slightly: "I don't want to get involved in those messy fights among you British people - I just came to participate in the competition for Beauxbatons."

"But it seems we have no choice now."

Krum glanced at Fleur: "Ken is right, we are very likely to be targeted now - a referee who died suddenly happened to be related to all three of us, and even Ken, who had no relationship in the first place, was targeted. We have arranged a most suspicious position. And we don’t have a wand now, so we are being watched..."

"I remember Durmstrang seemed to be your territory."

Fleur looked at Krum with some surprise: "Don't you have any confidence in your school?"

"You don't understand Karkaroff."

Krum didn't care about the provocation hidden in Fleur's words, and said seriously: "He himself is from England, and it is said that he has some unclean background. And his usual behavior is different from what you have seen these days. Completely different, many people even rated him as the worst principal in the history of Durmstrang... If he really turned a blind eye to Durmstrang's crisis, or even had a hand in it, I would be wrong anyway. It’s not surprising at all.”

"We are a grasshopper on a rope now."
