Sirius was lost in thought, staring at the table, "I think we're thinking wrong." He said, then turned to Ron: "You said your brother is Crouch's personal assistant? Can you ask him if he has See Crouch?"

"Give it a try," said Ron hesitantly. "But it's best not to let him hear that I think Crouch is doing something shady. Percy is in love with Crouch."

"By the way, you may ask if they have tracked down Bertha Jorkins," said Sirius, pointing to the second copy of the Daily Prophet.

"Bagman told me not yet," said Harry.

"Yes, he was quoted in the article," said Sirius, nodding at the paper, "and he was saying excitedly how bad Bertha's memory was. I used to know Bertha, unless she'd changed altogether. But in my I don't remember her being forgetful at all--quite the contrary. She's a bit muddled, but has a first-rate memory for gossip. This often gets her into a lot of trouble; she never knows when to shut up. Mouth. I can imagine that she must be a nasty liability in the Ministry of Magic... Maybe that's why Bagman didn't set out to find her..."

Harry thought hard, he felt a small thing in his head, hiding there, but very important.

"Okay." Sirius said, throwing the last chicken leg into his mouth: "You have stayed here for a long time, it's time to go back to the castle-I still want to remind you, be careful Sne P. Ever since I heard that Snape taught here, I've been wondering why Dumbledore hired him. Snape was always fascinated by the Dark Arts and became famous for it in school. He was a greasy, slick Slick, oily little boy,"

Ron laughed when he heard it, and he went to look at Harry again, but Harry didn't listen at all, he was frowning and thinking about something.

"When Snape first came to school, he knew more spells than half the students in the seventh year, and he was a member of a gang of Slytherins that almost turned into Death Eaters."

Sirius raised his hand and began to twirl his fingers to name people one by one.

"Rozier and Wilkes - they were killed by Aurors a year before Voldemort's downfall. The Slatranges, in Azkaban. Avery - as I understand him, Deceived himself out of it by saying he was under the Imperius Curse and acted involuntarily - he's still at large. But as far as I know, Snape was never accused of being a Death Eater - which can't Tells a lot. Many of them were not caught. Snape was undoubtedly cunning and clever, and he could clean himself up."

"But—" Sirius snorted coldly, and said "However" in a drawn out tone

"He is indeed very talented in potions...or is it aura? He can probably be regarded as the most powerful master of potions in the entire magic world right now?" Sirius thought in his heart, and said the same thing in his mouth—— I am not the kind of good person like Slytherin who can't face up to his old enemy.

Ron curled his lips, and before he could say anything, Harry suddenly spoke.

He pondered: "You tell me, if——if Mr. Crouch pretended to be sick, sneaked to Hogwarts, and searched Professor Snape's office—what is the probability?"

Hermione frowned a little incomprehensibly: "This is not the plot of a novel, besides, why would he do this?"

Ron reluctantly replied: "Maybe he had been eyeing Snape for a long time, and then his sense of justice prompted him to—" He himself felt a little ridiculous, so he couldn't continue.

Sirius stroked his chin. He was still not used to himself without a beard. Should he grow a little beard... He stopped thinking about it, and said instead: "Harry, what are you doubting? What do you want to say?"

"When I was discussing with Daniel..." Harry felt that his train of thought was a bit confused, so he paused for a while, organized his train of thought a little bit, and then continued: "Uh, he came up with a train of thought, that is, Barty The name Crouch does not belong only to Mr Crouch...his son is also named."

"But it's impossible to mark 'This is Barty Crouch Jr.', 'This is Fake Alastor Moody', 'This is Ron Weasley sleeping' on the Marauder's Map, so we Guess the person who entered Professor Snape's office was probably Barty Crouch Jr. "

"But just now Sirius said that Barty Crouch Jr. died in Azkaban." Hermione said.

"But nobody knows—is that the real Barty Crouch Jr., is it?" Harry retorted. "Just now Sirius said that Professor Snape is good at potions. I suddenly remembered that there is a potion called Polyjuice Potion, isn't it? Become someone else entirely?"

"But...but...how is this possible?" Ron felt his mind was going to be confused: "Which thing are you talking about that might have the effect of compound soup?"

"I guess Harry meant to say, both?" Sirius' voice dropped.

Harry nodded quickly: "That's what I thought, but it feels a little..." Unbelievable.

"Barty Crouch Sr. can find another person through Polyjuice Potion to completely become Barty Crouch Jr. to suffer in Azkaban, and "Barty Crouch" can be tortured through Polyjuice Potion Potion, turned himself into Mad-Eye Moody, and went looking for Snape's office in the middle of the night. ' said Sirius to himself, 'so why Mad-Eye Moody? "

"...Could it be because he found out that Moody can teach at Hogwarts?" Hermione was cautious, but reacted quickly: "If Professor Moody is really replaced, then maybe it was just now that Professor Moody was replaced. Back in school - Ron! Do you remember when there were rumors about Professor Moody?"

Ron was shocked: "Of course! Of course I remember! Let me think... the night before he was going to leave for Hogwarts, there was a bit of a commotion in his house - that's what Dad said - and there were not many people." Mind, thought it was just old magician Moody going nuts again. When Dad just shrugged and went to see if he was in any trouble, he said 'I'm fine!'."

"Could it be then? He was actually attacked? But isn't he powerful? And doesn't Polyjuice have a duration? Any time you see 'Moody' is Moody?" ' asked Ron again.

"Probably because he's old," said Sirius. "He's about to retire. As for Polyjuice Potion..."

Hermione stared at the empty wine glass on the table, a flash of inspiration flashed in her head, and a small object that Moody carried with her appeared in her mind-"It's a wine jug!"
