A Hogwarts dissertation guide

"I'm going to call Dumbledore. I know where his office is. I can hurry up -"

"He's crazy," Krum said hesitantly, looking down at Crouch.Crouch was still chattering to the tree, seemingly convinced that it was Wetherby - maybe Percy?

Harry could only guess this, because Mr. Crouch had always called Percy Wetherby before.

"You stay with him first." After Harry finished speaking, he was about to stand up and leave, but his actions seemed to irritate Mr. Crouch. He suddenly changed his stance, hugged Harry's knees, and dragged him again. Fall to the ground.

"Don't... leave... me!" He whispered, his eyes popped out again, "I... escaped... I must remind... I must tell... I want to see Dumbledore... it's all my fault... it's all my fault... Blame me... Bertha... is dead... it's all my fault... my son... it's all my fault... tell Dumbledore... Harry Potter... the Dark Lord... to be strong... Harry Potter special……"

"As long as you let me go, I will go find Dumbledore, Mr. Crouch!" Harry said.He turned to look at Krum angrily: "Can you help me?"

Krum looked cautious, his eyes moving back and forth between Harry and Crouch, as if he couldn't figure out what was going on.Finally, he decided to step forward and squat down next to Mr. Crouch.

"Keep him here," Harry said, struggling to free himself from Mr. Crouch's grasp. "I'll go find Dumbledore."

"You have to hurry up!" Krum shouted after Harry.Harry ran quickly out of the Forbidden Forest and across the dark field.The venue was empty.Bagman, Hermione and Fleur were gone.Harry climbed the stone steps in three steps at a time, passed through the oak door, jumped up the marble stairs, and ran towards the eighth floor.

Five minutes later, he quickly ran towards a stone monster standing in the middle of the empty corridor.

"Ice-ice lemonade!" he panted to it.

It was the password to the secret staircase leading to Dumbledore's office - at least two years ago.However, the password had obviously changed, and instead of jumping to one side, the stone monster stood motionless, glaring at Harry viciously.

"Get out of the way!" Harry yelled at it, "Hurry up!"

However, there was never anything in Hogwarts that would get out of the way if you shouted at it.

Who knew this wouldn't work.

Harry could only look around in the dark corridor.Hoping that maybe Dumbledore was in the staff room?He started running desperately towards the stairs again——

"Harry?"

Harry's feet slipped and he stopped.When he turned around, Snape had just emerged from the secret staircase behind the stone monster.Just as he waved Harry back, the wall slowly closed behind him.

"What are you doing here, Harry??"

"I want to see Professor Dumbledore!" Harry said, running back along the corridor, and then stopped in front of Snape. "It's Mr. Crouch...he showed up...he was in the Forbidden Forest. Here...he asked for——"

"Mr. Crouch? Why is he in the Forbidden Forest?" Snape said, his black eyes shining. "Speak slowly, what happened?"

"Mr. Crouch!" Harry shouted, "Ministry official! He's sick or something - he's in the Forbidden Forest and wants to see Dumbledore! Give me the password -"

"I'm afraid we must go find him together," said Snape.His thin lips twisted, showing a very complicated expression, as if he didn't quite understand what Harry said, but he chose to believe Harry.

This surprised Harry a little, but he didn't care so much and just wanted to see Dumbledore as soon as possible.

"Pile of cockroaches."

They spoke the command, and the monster suddenly came to life and jumped aside. They hurried through the gap in the wall and stepped onto the spiral stone staircase. The door closed behind them.The stairs slowly rose on their own, bringing them to a gleaming oak door with a brass ring.

Dumbledore was sitting behind his desk, looking down at something. He was wearing a long green robe, with a slightly surprised expression on his face when he saw Snape and Harry. "Something's wrong?" he asked, looking from Harry to Snape.

"Professor!" Harry said, taking a big step forward impatiently, "Mr. Crouch is here - in the Forbidden Forest. He wants to talk to you!"

Harry expected Dumbledore to ask some questions, but he was relieved that Dumbledore didn't ask any.

"Lead the way," Dumbledore said without hesitation, and hurried off along the corridor with Harry, Snape following closely behind them.

"What did Mr. Crouch say, Harry?" asked Dumbledore as they hurried down the marble stairs.

"Said he wanted to remind you...that he had done something terrible...and mentioned his son...and Bertha Jorkins...and--and Voldemort...as if Voldemort had become Stronger..."

"Really?" Dumbledore said as he quickened his pace and hurried out into the dark night. His keen eyes looked back at Snape. Snape touched his pocket, nodded secretly, and replied A look of reassurance.

"He's acting very strangely," said Harry, walking quickly beside Dumbledore. "He doesn't seem to know where he is. He keeps talking as if he thinks Percy Weasley is there, Then he suddenly changed and said he wanted to see you... I asked Viktor Krum to keep an eye on him."

"Really?" Dumbledore asked alertly, his steps taking longer, and Harry had to run to keep up. "Do you know who else saw Mr. Crouch?"

"No more." Harry said, "Krum and I were talking at the time. Mr. Bagman had just finished telling us the content of the third project. The two of us stayed behind. Later, we saw Mr. Crouch coming out of the ban room. The forest came out—"

"Where are they?" asked Dumbledore, as Beauxbatons' carriage loomed in the darkness.

"Over there," Harry said, rushing in front of Dumbledore and leading him through the trees.He couldn't hear Crouch's voice, but he knew he was on the right track. The place was a little beyond the Beauxbatons carriage...almost right here...

"Professor Rumple?" Harry shouted.

Edward was standing where Harry and Krum had just seen Mr. Crouch. Beside him were Krum and Mr. Crouch who were lying on the ground, now unconscious.

"Good evening," Edward said with a wave of his hand, "I didn't expect to see you here."

"Do you see anything?" said Dumbledore, lighting his wand and holding it in his hand.
