Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

"Did I hear you right, Snape?!" Moody asked slowly. "Someone broke into your office?"

"That's irrelevant," said Snape coldly, not wanting to talk about it.

"On the contrary!" growled Moody. "That's very important. Who's going to break into your office?"

"It could be anyone, someone who wants to make a forbidden potion, and the potion ingredients are missing from my private storage room!" said Snape, a blood vessel throbbing horribly on his oily temple, " I caught Mason and Granger outside!"

"You mean, Ivan and Hermione went to your office to look for potion ingredients?!" Moody continued to ask.

"We didn't!" said Hermione hastily. "Professor, we just happened to be passing by."

"Shut up, Granger!" Snape said, "About the confinement of you two..."

"We really didn't come to your office, professor!" Ivan interrupted him, "In fact, we didn't see the intruder you mentioned at all. According to what you said, he was under your magic and should run away." It's not far, but there's no one else here except us, and it's impossible for us to go to your office. I think you're delusional, having a nightmare or something. By the way, if someone actually breaks in , you should tell us what you lost?"

Hearing his words, Snape glanced suspiciously across the faces of several people, as if thinking of something.

"That's right!" Moody demanded without giving him time to react, "Snape, you don't hide anything else in your office, do you?"

Instantly, Snape's dusty face turned an ugly brick red, and the vein in his temple beat faster.

"You know I'm hiding nothing, Moody!" he said in a low, menacing voice, as if he was at the limit of his patience. "Didn't you search my office yourself?"

Moody's face twisted into a grin.

"It's an Auror's prerogative, Snape, Dumbledore told me to keep a close eye on..."

"Dumbledore trusts me!" Snape said through gritted teeth. "I can't believe he ordered you to search my office!"

"Of course Dumbledore believes in you," roared Moody. "He's a very gullible man who always thinks that people deserve a second chance. But I think there are some stains that can't be washed off, never can be washed off, You see what I mean, Snape?"

"I don't understand what you're talking about!" Snape said slowly, suddenly thought of something, his face became even uglier, "It's you?!"

"Yes, it's me!" Moody nodded, looking at Snape defiantly.

"Hmph!" Snape snorted coldly, making sure that Moody broke into his office just now.

The next second, he grabbed his left arm with his right hand suddenly, as if the arm was suddenly in unbearable pain.

Just like when Ivan mentioned Voldemort just now, the Dark Devil's Mark on his arm was hurting.

Aiwen's eyebrows twitched, can Keresis affect the Dark Mark? !

Or was Snape purely psychological? !

He's been touching his Dark Mark, which isn't a good sign.

Seeing him, Moody laughed. "Go back to sleep, Snape."

"You have no right to make me go anywhere!" Snape hissed, letting go of his arms, as if annoyed with himself. "I have as much right to patrol the school at night as you do!"

"Then go ahead and patrol!" Moody said, but his voice was menacing. "I always knew that one day I would meet you in the dark hallway, catch you, and send you to where you should go." The place……"

"Very well, I look forward to that day, to see if you have that ability!" Snape said viciously, turned around and walked down the stairs with a gloomy and terrifying expression, "Mason, Granger, you two come with me! "

"I have something to say to them, Snape!" said Moody gruffly. "Then I'll take them to Professor McGonagall and let her take care of it."

"Enough!" Snape roared loudly. "They are wandering around the castle in violation of school rules. It has something to do with the theft of my office. I want to take them to the headmaster."

"That's good!" roared Moody, louder than Snape, "I'll go too, and I'd be more than happy to tell the headmaster how often you suspect Alvin Mason and Hermione Granger Yes, I suspect they broke into your office, you know it's not the two of them at all. Dumbledore should be very interested to know who is doing evil to his students, and I am also very interested, are you in the office There is something hidden inside that no one knows..."

He limped a few steps towards Snape, the torchlight glancing across his distorted and mangled face.

The firelight made the scars and the big hole in the nose look deeper and more eerie than ever.

Snape looked at Moody, the two of them stared at each other, and for a moment neither moved nor spoke.

For a moment, Ivan thought that Snape would draw out his wand and fight Moody.

However, Snape slowly lowered his hands.

"I want to go back to sleep," he said suddenly.

"That's the only idea you have that makes sense tonight," said Moody. "Now, Filch, can you give me that golden egg?"

"No!" said Filch, hugging the egg as he would his firstborn son. "Professor Moody, this is proof that Peeves stole!"

"He stole it from a warrior, and it belonged to that warrior," said Moody. "Here it is, quick."

Snape ignored the matter, didn't even look at Ivan and Hermione, and walked downstairs quickly without saying a word.

His body was shaking with anger, and what happened tonight was an absolute disgrace to him.

Based on what Ai Wen knew about him, he would never let it go.

Chapter 654 Speculation and doubts

"Give me the golden egg!" said Moody forcefully, and repeated.

Filch hesitated, handed the golden egg to Moody, and smacked his lips at Mrs Norris.

The cat looked around blankly. It looked at Harry and Ron for a few seconds before turning and following its master down.

"Come on, dear!" Filch whispered, "We don't need that golden egg, we'll go to Dumbledore early in the morning and tell him what Peeves has done..."

A door slammed, and now only Moody, Ivan, and Hermione were left looking at each other.

"Dangerous enough, isn't it?!" He lumbered down the stairs and sat limply on a step.

Ivan also breathed a sigh of relief, and gave Keressis a hard look.

Fortunately, Snape was a little jealous of Moody's identity, otherwise tonight would have been really bad.

Judging by Snape's horrible expression when he left, he must have hated Moody to death.

"Okay, you two can come out now!" Keresis turned his head and said.

"Who are you talking to, Professor?" Hermione asked, surprised to see Harry and Ron appear halfway up the stairs.

"Thank you, Professor!" Harry said weakly.

With Ron's help, he freed his leg from the tricky step and climbed up to the upper step.

The steps returned to normal in an instant, as if they had never changed.

"Harry, Ron, why are you two here?" Hermione asked.

"We are trying to figure out the clues of the golden egg!" Ron whispered, "But you, why did you come back so late with Ivan?"

"We're doing business too!" Hermione said matter-of-factly, "So you know the secret of the golden egg?!"

"Of course..." Ron glanced at Moody and didn't continue.

"Okay, boy!" Keresis said suddenly, his magical eyes rolling wildly, "I'm not interested in your little secrets, and walking outside in the middle of the night won't give you any inspiration, take Your golden egg, hurry back to sleep. Remember, don't lose it again!"

"Professor, I want to talk to you alone!" Ivan whispered, wanting to know what the hell Keresis was doing.

"Of course, you can go to my office tomorrow morning and go back to bed now!" Keresis replied.

Ai Wen nodded, noticing that his expression was a little unnatural.

Sure enough, Snape's magic hurt him. He was completely stiff just now, but now he can't hold on anymore.

"Professor, about the confinement of Ivan and I?" Hermione asked worriedly.

"There is no confinement, you don't want me to punish you four?!" Keresis asked, showing a terrible smile.

"Of course not!" said Hermione hastily.

"That's fine, good night, everyone!" He stood up, climbed the stairs with great effort, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

"He's a good guy, although he looks scary, doesn't he?!"

A few minutes later, the four of them were walking towards the Gryffindor Tower along the familiar path.

"Professor Moody is really good!" Ivan said thoughtfully, thinking back on what happened tonight, he always felt something was wrong, "So many things happened tonight, it's so strange, he came to Snape's office after all What are you looking for in there?"

"It might be some kind of contraband related to black magic, remember?!" Harry followed up with analysis, with a hint of excitement in his tone, "Snape just said that Professor Moody searched his office, Moody is sure I think there's something in it."

"You mean, Snape hid contraband in his office!" Ron said, "Moody is not only keeping an eye on Karkaroff, but also Snape?"

"That's it, that's why Professor Moody broke into Snape's office tonight to look for those contraband." Harry said, "Moody said that the reason why Dumbledore let Snape stay here is because In order to give him a second chance, what did he do in the first place..."

It made sense, and if Moody hadn't been faked by Keresis, he probably would have done it.

"Perhaps Moody thinks Snape threw my name into the Goblet of Fire!" said Ron, eyes widening.

"Oh, Ron, it can't be Snape!" Hermione shook her head suspiciously, "He's had countless chances to kill us over the past few years, remember the last time we thought Snape wanted to kill us?" Harry, it turned out that he was saving Harry."

There was a moment of silence, the fact was true, Snape didn't have to bother if he wanted to do it.

Besides, although he might hate Ron, there was no reason to kill him.

If he insisted on killing someone present, compared to Ron, Harry should be his first target.

We all know that Snape's attitude towards Harry is very strange.

He had indeed saved Harry's life before, but at the same time he hated Harry as much as he hated Harry's father when they went to school together.

Snape liked to give Harry points, and never missed an opportunity to punish Harry, even offering to expel Harry from school.

"I do appreciate Moody for helping us, but I don't care what he says, he's too suspicious." Hermione continued, "Dumbledore is not stupid, let's take Hagrid and Professor Lupine for example, many No one would give them a job, even though Snape was kind of mean..."

"Okay, let's change our mind!" Ron shook his head and said, giving up on figuring out why Moody went to search Snape's office, "You know Keresis Slytherin and Baron Ty Crouch? I saw them on the Marauder's Map this evening."

"What?!" Ivan raised his head and looked at Ron in surprise, "Did you see Keresis and Barty Crouch?!"

"Yeah, I was holding the Marauder's Map at the time, and their names appeared on the map for a while, and then disappeared, and only I saw it." Ron said, thinking that he saw these two people tonight. The matter of the name was spoken.

Ivan was thinking while listening to him.

Kerexis's name was enchanted so that it would not be marked on the Marauder's Map.

Ivan has verified it, but since Ron saw his name on the map, it means that the magic left by Snape has worked.

That powerful spell, most likely a hybrid spell.

It broke all the camouflage on Kerexis and wounded him so badly that he was forced to flee in a hurry.

If he could still maintain Moody's appearance, that guy could stay in Snape's office openly and provoke him like he did just now.

This is easy to understand, but what happened to Barty Crouch appearing in Keresis' office? !

Chapter 655 The Wounded Vampire

The map showed Barty Crouch, and Ron thought it was Mr. Crouch, too.

But Ivan knew that, no accident, it should be Barty Crouch Jr., the craziest Death Eater.

The school's Floo network has not yet been controlled. As long as a teacher cooperates, Barty Jr. can enter and leave Hogwarts at will.

It's easy, it's impossible to guard against, and it's so easy that it's a little beyond imagination.

He didn't have to risk pretending to be someone to sneak into the castle, wandering around in front of Dumbledore, risking being discovered.

As long as Kerexis supports him, he can easily control everything.

But Keresis told Ivan not long ago that he had no contact with Barty Crouch Jr.The vampire repeatedly said that he didn't know the other party's plan at all, and he didn't know anything about it, as if he came to Hogwarts for a leisurely vacation.

That doesn't seem to be the case at all now that he may have been in touch with Barty Crouch Jr.

If Ron hadn't suddenly seen the name on the Marauder's Map, Ivan would have been kept in the dark.

The more he thought about it, the more creepy he felt, and he didn't even listen to the arguments of Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

Evil and deceit are in the nature of vampires, and their very existence is a taboo.

Aiwen remembered that he saw a description of vampires in the magic book before, and they might be planning a bigger conspiracy.

Through the Floo Network, those vampires can take advantage of the chaos and slack during the game to sneak into Hogwarts and launch an attack, capture Harry, just like what happened in the Quidditch World Cup, and retreat safely to the Forbidden Forest after the attack get away.

As for making Ron a warrior, it was completely a cover-up that made everyone focus on him.

The only problem with this plan is that Dumbledore is here, but they have Barty Crouch under control.

With Crouch's status in the Ministry of Magic, it was very easy to find some excuse to expel Dumbledore from the school.

This is really crazy, but very possible.

Whether it's Voldemort, Barty Jr. or a vampire, they're all lunatics.

Ai Wen thought about it for a while before forcing himself to calm down.

He knew it was possible, but there was nothing wrong with the contract magic he made with Keresis.
