Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

"……so,"

Avada responded quickly: "So when the school first started last year, you told me that in the third plan of the pure-blood family, the person to be taken away was Harry?"

"That's right."

Dumbledore nodded approvingly: "They sent someone to pretend to be Professor Moody and sneaked into Hogwarts, and planned to do it on the day when the third event of the Triwizard Tournament started, that is, everyone in Hogwarts When that accident attracted attention, he secretly took Harry out of Europe, then deleted his memory, modified his appearance, and turned into a completely different person..."

"...It's so cruel."

Avada couldn't help but shudder - if Barty Jr. in the original book also used this set of operations and deleted his memory about Harry afterwards, I'm afraid Voldemort would really be unable to die from now on...

"Fortunately, the man pretending to be Professor Moody was my man from the beginning."

Dumbledore seemed to want to smile, but suddenly put away all his expressions, as if he remembered something bad: "And that person's name is Peter Pettigrew, you may have heard of this name—— It was he who gave me a surprise that sealed the victory... Of course, there are also the doubts I have now."

"Doubtful? What happened?"

Avada asked curiously - he had personally modified Peter's memory and witnessed the oath he and Dumbledore swore. What could happen under such strict measures?

"he died."

"..."

Dumbledore frowned slightly: "I just got the news this afternoon that he died from the backlash of the Unbreakable Vow - and that oath was made by him voluntarily with me."

For some reason, Avada was not surprised by this incident at all.

"Let's talk about what he did first."

Seeing that Avada didn't express an opinion for a long time, Dumbledore sighed softly, and then explained: "This man was thought to have died thirteen years ago, when Voldemort just fell... The story during this period was a bit complicated. , and the authenticity has yet to be confirmed, so I will skip it for now... You only need to know that this person actually joined the Death Eaters thirteen years ago, and suddenly returned last year, and then sent I received a lot of information about Voldemort and the Death Eaters, including the location of the Horcrux Cave, and made an oath to me, expressing my willingness to sneak into the pure-blood sect again, lure them to reveal their flaws, and completely eliminate them at the same time. "

"Then not long after, he contacted me again and told me he had come up with a bold plan..."

"Is this this year's Triwizard Tournament?"

"That's right."

Dumbledore nodded and said: "At that time, the pure-bloods already knew that Harry was Voldemort's Horcrux and were planning how to secretly pick him up. And Pettigrew had just provided them with a lot of secret information in exchange for full trust. I believe that instead of letting them continue to plan like this and only increase the variables, it is better to take the initiative in our own hands and directly formulate a known and controllable plan for them... This is the origin of this year's Triwizard Tournament."

To be honest, the truth revealed by Dumbledore was somewhat beyond Avada's expectations - it was not within the settings he had made for Pettigrew.

At that time, the task he assigned to Pettigrew subconsciously was not clear. He just wanted to find a way to make the temporarily dormant pure-blood faction active again, expose their flaws to Dumbledore, and shorten the cycle of their demise... But he didn't expect that Pettigrew would die. Dwarf Star actually taught himself without a teacher and brought up the Triwizard Tournament that already existed in the original work again?

But if you think about it carefully, this is reasonable - firstly, resuming the competition is what the three schools have been doing for a long time, and in recent years, with the stability of society, the right time has indeed come; And this time the purpose of the pure-blood faction is exactly the same as in the original work - to take away Harry Potter and resurrect Voldemort.

It's just that in the original work, only Barty Jr. and Pettigrew took action, but this time it was the entire stubborn pure-blood camp that exerted their power, so the scale, investment and goals of the plan were naturally of two different magnitudes - this They even planned to kill Dumbledore!

"Then, under their operation, the Triwizard Tournament was successfully resumed this year, but the location was changed from Hogwarts to Durmstrang, and the age group was also canceled unlike previous years. limits."

Dumbledore said solemnly: "Because they need to lure the two most obstructive people, me, and you, who has the ability to predict, out of Hogwarts together, and cannot detect or hinder their actions at the critical moment - I started Their estimate was wrong, and you were indeed within their calculations."

"Moreover, the way they let you participate in the tournament was really by influencing Ludo Bagman. He had already been selected as the referee at that time, and owed a large sum of money because of the bet, and then the pure-blood family People came to him and made a suggestion to him - they suggested that the student who defeated Voldemort twice join the Triwizard Tournament, and then buy him to win in the bet, and those pure-blood families would cooperate with him Adjusting the odds, he can also operate behind the scenes as a referee, and finally make a fortune together... As you can see, under his influence, you were successfully drawn into the game, and Bagman was also drawn into the game. The kidnapping of Barty Jr. became a disguise for his identity.”

"...What about Mr. Crouch? How did he come to be the referee?"

"His son has always been by his side, controlled by the Imperius Curse - this is something Pettigrew has investigated over the past ten years, and it became their plan to rescue little Barty to cooperate with their actions. A crucial part.”

Dumbledore replied: "So at Karkaroff's invitation, Crouch agreed to come to Durmstrang as a referee, and worked with them to develop the script of 'The Murder of Bagman'." Then During Bagman's "death", Karkaroff secretly swapped the looks and positions of the real Bagman and Barty Jr., allowing Bagman to be controlled by Crouch's Imperius Curse instead of Barty Jr. …”

"……so,"

Avada thought for a while before reacting, and asked with a strange expression: "Bagman just watched Crouch use the Imperius Curse on him for several months??"

"That's right."

Dumbledore also seemed a bit dumbfounded: "His magic level is not enough to escape Crouch's Imperius Curse for even a second, and Crouch's order for the Imperius Curse is very simple, which is to stay in the room honestly. , not allowed to speak, not allowed to make noise, not allowed to act without authorization... So, poor Bagman was controlled by Crouch for more than three months without being noticed by him. Until two months ago, we informed the plan Crouch, he realized that his son had been transferred..."

"..."

Avada didn't know what kind of expression was appropriate right now.

"So, in the next two months, Crouch has been adjusting Bagmanna's memory, trying to let him forget this experience naturally - he does not want to let this thing that can ruin his reputation be used by more people. Many people know about it.”
