Together [HP]

"You're just lucky." Jacqueline said dryly. "Most people put traps on their office doors to prevent others from entering uninvited."

"Let's look for it and see if there are any clues." Hermione said while looking around the office. On Moody's desk, there was something like a cracked glass spinning top.

"That's a looking glass." Jacqueline walked over and picked it up. "It can be used to monitor the surrounding environment. If something abnormal happens, it will turn."

As she spoke, she picked up an odd object sitting on the corner of a small table. It looked a bit like a golden TV antenna, but it was twisted so badly that it hummed softly. .

"I always wanted this from him when I was a kid." Jacqueline picked up the golden antenna and showed it to Hermione. "This is a dark magic detector, but it can not only detect black magic, as long as there is Trembles when there's a plot or a lie."

"Oh, and this." Jacqueline walked to the opposite side and looked at a mirror-like thing hanging on the wall, but what was reflected was not the scene in the room, there were many dark figures dangling inside , but they are all blurred and indistinct. "That's a magic mirror,"

She looked at Hermione, who was rummaging through boxes and boxes, "He told me, the real Moody told me that if I could see the whites of their eyes, I'd be in real trouble. But other than that, Norm was more than happy to lend it to me when I played hide-and-seek with him."

"Jacqueline," said Hermione impatiently, opening a drawer in Moody's desk, "would you be kind enough to help?"

Jacqueline ignored her, she looked at the mirror very intently, the shadow in the mirror began to become clear, it was the silhouette of two people, they were getting closer and closer, one of them was half dragging and half hugging the other.

"Someone's coming, Hermione," said Jacqueline, frowning.

"Oh, yes," said Hermione impatiently, looking at the big trunk under the window with the seven keyholes in a row, "you just stare at the magic mirror. "

"No, Hermione!" Jacqueline screamed, pointing to the mirror. "It's Moody, he and Harry are here."

Hermione turned and they all saw that Moody and Harry were clearly in the mirror.

"We have to go!" Jacqueline ran to open the door, but Hermione stopped her.

"We can't go out." Hermione gasped, trying to calm her voice. "We'll meet them as soon as we get out, and then he'll know we searched his office."

"Then do you have any solution? Miss Know-It-All!" Jacqueline said irritably, "How many times have I told you to make a plan before you act! Look what you have let us fall into! We Nowhere to hide! They will kill us if they come in!"

"Shut up, Jacqueline!" Hermione yelled at her, "Calm down, I'm trying to figure something out!"

"Then you'd better hurry up!" Jacqueline stared at the mirror closely, "They must be outside the door, and they will come in soon!"

"We're going to hide in this box," Hermione squatted down, looking at the box in front of her.

"This box can only be opened with the key he carries with him!" Jacqueline said, she tried her best to restrain herself from shouting, she didn't want people outside to hear it. "Arajo hole has nothing to it..."

Jacqueline opened her mouth in surprise, and Hermione had already opened the box, which was full of various broken looking glasses, some parchment and quills, and a silver invisibility cloak.

"What are you still doing?" Hermione looked at her anxiously. She had already stepped into the box and was putting a knife into her pocket. "Do you want to be caught?"

"How did you do it?" Jacqueline stuffed herself into the box, and they had just closed the box when they heard the door open.

"Sirius gave Harry this pocket knife for Christmas, and it can open any lock. We've been using it to get in and out of empty classrooms these days."

Hermione's breath sprayed on Jacqueline's ears when she spoke, it was hot and itchy, Jacqueline wanted to reach out to scratch, but the box was too crowded, she couldn't move at all, and when she opened her mouth, Hermione All the hair went to her mouth.They could only curl up and listen carefully to the sounds outside.

"Drink it... you'll feel better... drink it, Harry, I need to know exactly."

It looked like Moody had given Harry something to drink, and it must have been bad, because Harry coughed violently.

"Voldemort is back, Harry? Are you sure? How did he do it?"

Jacqueline's body trembled involuntarily, and Hermione waved her palm slightly and patted her knee to comfort her.

"He took a little from his father's grave, and Wormtail, and me."

"What did the Dark Lord take from you?" Moody asked.

"Blood."

Moody let out a long hiss.

"Where's the Death Eaters? Are they back?"

"Yes," said Harry, "a lot of people..."

"What did he do to them?" asked Moody softly. "Did he forgive them?"

"There's a Death Eater at Hogwarts! There's a Death Eater here, and the Death Eaters put my name in the Goblet of Fire on purpose for me to win last."

"I know who that Death Eater is," he said quietly.

"Karkaroff?" Harry asked eagerly. "Where is he? Have you caught him? Locked him up?"

"Karkaroff?" Moody gave an odd smile. "Karkaroff ran away tonight because he felt the Dark Mark burn on his arm. He betrayed so many loyal supporters of the Dark Lord." , afraid to meet them...but I suspect he won't go far, the Dark Lord has a way of tracking his enemies."

"Karkaroff isn't here? He ran? So, he didn't put my name in the Goblet of Fire?"

"No," said Moody slowly, "it wasn't him. I did it."

"No," said Harry, "you didn't...you couldn't..."

"It was me," said Moody.

"So he forgave them, did he? Forgive the Death Eaters who got away and escaped Azkaban captivity?"

"What?" said Harry.

"I ask you," Moody said calmly, "does he forgive those scum who never looked for him? Those traitors, cowards, who dare not even enter Azkaban for him. stuff. They had the audacity to mess around at the Quidditch World Cup with their masks on, but one by one they slipped away after seeing my Dark Mark launch."

"You fired... what did you say...?"

"I told you, Harry... I told you. If there's one thing I hate, it's letting a Death Eater get away with it. They betrayed my master when he needed them most. I I hope he punishes them, I hope he tortures them. Tell me he tortured them, Harry... tell me he told them that only I have been faithful... willing to risk everything to help him get what he wants most ,you!"

"You didn't... no... it couldn't be you..."

"Who put your name in the Goblet of Fire as a student at another school? It was me. Who scared away everyone who might hurt you or get in your way? It was me. Who egged Hagrid on to let you watch dragons? It was Me. Who made you think of the only way to defeat the dragon? Me."

"It's not easy, Harry, getting you through these projects without arousing suspicion. I have to use all my scheming to make it invisible to people. If you win too easily, Dumbledore will rise Suspicious. Once you're in the maze, it's best to start first, so I'll have a chance to take out a few other warriors and clear the way for you. But I'll have to deal with your stupidity. In the second project... I'm particularly worried that we'll fail. I've been watching you, Potter. I know you haven't found a clue to the golden egg, so I must give you another hint."

"You didn't," Harry said hoarsely, "Cedric reminded me..."

"Who told Cedric to open it underwater? It was me. I'm sure he'd tell you. Decent people are easily manipulated, Potter. I know Cedric wants to repay you for telling him first This project is a fire dragon thing and he did. But even then it seems like you could fail. I've been keeping an eye on you... You've been in the library for so long and you haven't found that book you need right there in the dorm I set it up and I gave it to the boy named Long Marton, do you remember? The Amazing Aquatic Plants of the Mediterranean and Their Properties. It will tell you everything useful about gill grass. I Thought you'd turn to everyone around you. Longbottom would tell you right away. But you didn't, you didn't, and your pride and sense of independence nearly ruined everything."

"What can I do? Get another naive person to remind you. You told me at the Christmas ball that a house-elf named Dobby gave you a Christmas present. I called the elf to The teachers' common room to collect the laundry. I talked loudly to Professor McGonagall about the hostages, wondering if Potter would think of using gillweed. Your elf friend immediately ran to Snape's office, and hurried I hurried to find you..."

"You've been in the lake too long, Potter. I thought you'd drowned. Fortunately, I'm relieved that Dumbledore took your stupidity for nobility and gave you a high score."

"Of course you were taken care of in the maze tonight," said Moody. "I patrolled around the maze, could see through the hedges outside, and cast spells to drive many obstacles out of your way. I knocked out Fleur Delacour, cast the Imperius Curse on Krum again, and asked him to kill Digory and clear the way for you to win the cup. And you two little bugs have heard enough!" Moody turned around , grinning, pointing his wand at the box where Jacqueline and Hermione were hiding, "Come out, you two eavesdropping mice!"

Hermione shuddered, she wanted to turn to look at Jacqueline, but she couldn't.Jacqueline put her hand on Hermione's back and patted it lightly, "Don't move," she said softly.

"No, Jacqueline." Hermione grabbed Jacqueline's sleeve tightly. "Maybe he's just putting on airs."

"His magic eye can see through all invisibility cloaks, Hermione." Jacqueline smiled at Hermione, then opened the lid of the box and walked out, then closed the lid. "Why do you think you can't see through such a small box?"

The author has something to say:

About why Jacqueline went out alone and locked Hermione in the box.

1: Because she knew that the rescuers must be on the way.It is impossible for Dumbledore and the others to suspect that Harry and Moody disappeared.So she just has to stall for time.It was better for her to do this kind of thing than for someone from Gryffindor to do it.

2: In case she doesn't manage to stall long enough, Moody kills both her and Potter.It also takes time for Moody to take the key to open the boxes layer by layer, because Moody doesn't know which layer of the box they are hiding in.

that's all.
