Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

"Why is this happening..."

In Durmstrang's underground floor, the three warriors who had reached an agreement, decided to cooperate, and agreed on an action plan had already ended their conversation. Fleur and Krum had also returned to their respective rooms, and Avada There was no need to hide his emotions anymore - he was slumped on the bed, staring at the ceiling blankly, feeling completely confused.

"There is no record of Karkaroff in the archives of the Department of Legal Enforcement... Doesn't this mean that he was never arrested and tried from the beginning?"

"Then is he a Death Eater? How did he come into contact with Crouch? He couldn't just stand in front of the Death Eaters. Suddenly, his conscience found out, and he took the initiative to find Crouch and his accomplices. Has all the information been revealed??"

"Or... his contact with Crouch was not a standard procedure? Crouch's act of letting Karkaroff go was illegal?"

He suddenly blinked and thought of a reasonable possibility, but he immediately rejected it: "But this is not necessary? For Crouch, who was still the director of the Department of Legal Enforcement at the time , every time he catches a Death Eater, it is regarded as his achievement, and Karkaroff, who knows so many lurkers, must be at a high level. This should be regarded as an important achievement... How could he just Just secretly change the file for a list of Death Eaters?"

"Karkarov wasn't even tried... How about he be given a not guilty verdict?"

He scratched his head vigorously and rolled over on the bed with some annoyance: "If we really follow normal logic, we shouldn't have directly poured Veritaserum or put the Cruciatus Curse on him after catching Karkaroff, and then put the poison in his stomach." To extract all the information and then directly throw him into Azkaban for life imprisonment? Even if Karkaroff behaves well and is willing to actively cooperate, at most he will be able to make up for his mistakes and only be sentenced to a few years less..."

"Calm down, calm down, think carefully."

He immediately lifted the quilt and stood up, went to the bathroom to wash his face with cold water, and then started walking around the room without even wiping it: "Think about the things that can be determined at the moment - first of all Karkaroff’s personal experience.”

"He was originally a high-level Death Eater, the kind who knew a lot of information about lurking people. Then he ran away after Voldemort's fall, and was chased by Mad-Eye Moody for half a year before he was caught... Then what is his strength? He must be top-notch in terms of intelligence and resourcefulness. One-on-one, at least he won't be much worse than a legendary Auror like Moody. It's no wonder that he can become the headmaster of Durmstrang, on an equal footing with Dumbledore..."

"No, I thought too far... Then, he reached an agreement with Barty Crouch and gave out the list of other lurking Death Eaters in exchange for his immunity from punishment. In the end, even the files were erased - this It’s an established fact, but it’s also the most unreasonable part.”

"Why was he not forced to confess after being caught, but was qualified to make a deal? Why did the list he spit out allow him to be exonerated directly, instead of reducing his sentence? Why didn't he even stand trial, and there were even people in the Ministry of Magic— - It should be Crouch - take the initiative to help him delete all the files?"

"Even if Crouch is more ruthless, he can just turn his back on him after getting the information, and still throw Karkaroff into Azkaban. Anyway, he has no countermeasures!"

"..."

He suddenly froze: "... countermeasures?"

"Yes... Karkaroff had countermeasures against the Ministry of Magic at that time, otherwise he would never have been able to get away with it to that extent!"

"But what could it be...such as the Unbreakable Oath? He could force Crouch to take the Unbreakable Oath to ensure that he carries out the agreement, otherwise he would never let go and hand over the list of Death Eaters to him...but this cannot explain the torture. And the question of Veritaserum.”

"Although Veritaserum and Legilimency are likely to be ineffective against a powerful wizard like Karkaroff, they cannot withstand the torture of the Cruciatus Curse - Aurors at that time were qualified to use the Unforgivable Curse. As long as it falls into their hands, they will always find a way to make people spit out the information in their heads, unless he doesn't know the information at all..."

"Oh, right!"

Avada suddenly clapped his hands vigorously, feeling that his face was really not in vain. Not only was his mind clearer, but his face was also much whiter, allowing him to easily find the right idea: "Karkarov has escaped. For half a year, he could have extracted those memories and hidden them somewhere where no one can find them! Didn't Slughorn use similar methods back then?"

"And he can also set up some magic at the hiding place that will destroy the memory immediately if it is found that it is not him. This way, he doesn't have to worry about the Aurors asking him to find out the hiding place of the memory, and then go get it himself!"

"So the truth is..."

He pulled out his chair and sat down, took out a pen and paper and listed all the previous clues, and then carefully sorted out the relationship between all the clues, and finally saw that the whole clue fit perfectly. The logic chain showed a satisfied smile.

"Karkaroff anticipated that he might be caught in the end, so he took out the important information about the Death Eaters from his mind and hid it somewhere. So during the subsequent Auror's torture, he could Use those memories as bargaining chips to make a deal with Barty Crouch, and even force him to make a magical contract with himself, of course, most likely an Unbreakable Oath..."

"However, it was absolutely illegal to let Karkaroff go privately when he had been hunted for six months, but Karkaroff forced this, and the information in his mind was too high. It was too important... So Crouch had no choice but to reach a consensus with Moody and use his authority to privately destroy all of Karkaroff's files and records, so that Karkaroff was able to escape without trial!"

"In this way, Karkaroff not only avoided temporary risks, but also eliminated the possibility of settling accounts later - because Crouch also committed illegal acts, so even if he is not bound by an oath, he will try his best Don’t let things get out!”

"And this kind of reasoning is easy to find evidence - as long as I can find similar contract marks on Crouch and Karkaroff, it will prove that this matter is 90% true!"

"And Ludo Bagman's death...could it be related to this matter?!"

The moment she figured this out, Avada felt her heart almost stop: "Yes! He has a close relationship with August Rookwood, the Death Eater who was leaked by Karkaroff... He is very likely to have some guesses about the inside story of this matter. In addition, they are colleagues with each other this year and their relationship has become closer. Bagman also needs to pay close attention to other referees if he wants to make small moves in the game..."

"Tomorrow... we must find evidence tomorrow!"
