Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

Almost immediately after delivering the message, Avada felt a light touch under her feet, and her whole body was suddenly lifted up by an unknown number of hands...

"I knew you could!"

"Well done, first place!"

"Haha, who would have thought that the first project would be a competition to solve crimes... Isn't this just hitting Ken's gun!"

"That's right, even Voldemort's conspiracy has been cracked, and the rest are just childish in comparison..."

In this way, Avada was carried back to the Hogwarts Express, surrounded by her excited classmates. The restaurant car there was already filled with rich and delicious food and drinks - before just now But no one knew that all of this was a competition, and no one knew that Avada would win first place. This was obviously something Dumbledore had arranged for the elves to prepare in advance...

No wonder his mental state was so subtle when he went to find Dumbledore with the two warriors this morning.

In fact, long before Karkaroff announced the truth, Avada had already vaguely realized that everything that happened before was probably part of the Triwizard Tournament - when he, Fleur and Krum analyzed the case and revealed When each shocking "revelation" was revealed, the behavior of those in the classroom, such as Karkaroff's nervousness, Crouch's uneasiness, Maxim's doubts, Dumbledore's readiness to attack... basically all of them It was a performance, but actually their mental state was very relaxed.

But Karkaroff and Crouch were really a little nervous - after all, the secret deal between the two of them and Crouch's erasure of files were real. And this is one of the things that Avada is still wondering about to this day - Karkaroff and Crouch are actually willing to expose this matter?

He is not afraid of any warrior with special skills. Can he really uncover any irrefutable evidence for him on the spot?

And not only that, during this competition, Avada also discovered something extremely important, which gave him a lot of urgency...

"Dong dong dong."

The banquet in the Hogwarts Express lasted until late at night. Everyone, including Dumbledore and the house elves, were celebrating Avada's wonderful performance and praising the magical ideas of the production team of this competition. Of course It is inevitable to discuss what the second project will be, and whether it will unfold in some unexpected way like this time...

It wasn't until everyone was so exhausted that they almost fell asleep in the restaurant. Then people dispersed and returned to their rooms to fall asleep...

Except Avada.

He was now secretly knocking on the door of Dumbledore's temporary office while no one was around.

"...I knew you had to come over."

Dumbledore, still wearing the clothes he had just worn at the banquet, sat behind the table and looked at Avada with a chuckle. After this trip, he almost packed his entire office directly onto the Hogwarts train. Whether it was those wonderful silverwares, the tree branch where Fox had been living, and other random little things, They are all arranged exactly as Avada remembers...

"I still have some doubts, and I did find something..."

Avada closed the door with his backhand and lowered his voice: "You know my ability - if this game is really a disguise and a performance from the beginning, there is no way I can't detect the clues... "

"Because I almost arranged it myself."

Dumbledore smiled and replied: "No matter how deep the water behind you is, on the surface this is just an international competition that is safe, exciting, and of extraordinary historical significance - since you finally became a warrior , I naturally have to find a way to let you enjoy the game."

"..."

Avada's expression froze.

"That……"

After being silent for a long time, he cautiously asked tentatively: "Ludo Bagman's body?"

"I made it."

Dumbledore replied happily: "All the materials are made of real flesh, flesh and bones, and no magic is used to modify the appearance. After the vitality is eliminated, it is completely like a body that has been hit by the killing curse." Consistent - in fact, if you observe carefully, you will find that the difference between the appearance of the prosthetic and Bagman is quite big, so I deliberately drew the blockade farther away."

Avada's face darkened.

Principal, you are plotting against me! !

"...Dirty information about Karkaroff and Bagman?"

"Oh, those are true, whether it's Karkaroff's identity as a Death Eater or the agreement reached between him and Crouch."

Dumbledore's expression calmed down a little, but he still acted quite relaxed: "But people with higher levels in the magical society have basically heard of these things, plus so many years have passed, and Voldemort I have also been arrested, so no one cares about these old things... To be honest, even if these things are really exposed, Karkaroff and Crouch will not be greatly affected - Crouch back then Everyone can understand Qi's choice; and Karkaroff...he has already secured his position, and Durmstrang is also very tolerant of dark wizards."

"That's why they dared to add this to the game."

Avada touched her chin: "And after such a fuss, more people will believe that the previous rumors are really just false conspiracy theories, and they will have a positive publicity effect on Karkaroff and Crouch. After all, the parties involved dared to openly add them to entertainment projects without any hesitation..."

"That's it."

Dumbledore nodded with satisfaction: "Oh, also, in order to circumvent the special talents of you and Miss Delacour in mental power, a few of us deliberately modified some of our memories before starting the performance, so that Our performance is more natural... Is it not easy for you now to see the traces of memory modification? "

"...Those investigation teams?"

"They are actually the staff who came to arrange the second project, and they just made a temporary cameo."

Dumbledore said with a smile: "Of course, their memory was temporarily modified - Durmstrang would eventually erase their memory of the school address anyway, so they had nothing against it, they just asked for twice as much. It’s just reward.”

"I see."

Avada nodded thoughtfully: "In other words, the first competition event was actually under your observation and control from beginning to end. The conspiracy against you has not been exposed at this stage?"

"You can say that."

Dumbledore smiled faintly and stroked his beard.

"In that case, you already knew that Ludo Bagman, who just came back, is actually a fake?"

"Of course?"

Dumbledore's palm stopped stiffly on his beard.
