Facing the furious Scrimgeour, Penello's attitude was very polite, but it seemed more like she was sarcastically saying:"Director, please forgive me. You don't have to worry about the commotion outside, I haven't lost my mind yet. This is Direct orders from Deputy Chief Jaina Proudmoore"

"Deputy Director Jaina’s order? Scrimgeour frowned,"Are you kidding me?" What command requires you to do this?"

Penello's tone remained calm:"Just now, at the Triwizard Tournament, more than ten Death Eaters and their wizards controlled by the [Soul-Impering Curse] launched an attack on the audience. The mastermind of all this was Barty Crouch Jr. With the help of Barty Crouch Sr., he faked his own death and successfully escaped from prison."

"How is that possible that Barty Crouch Jr. is still alive?"

Not only Scrimgeour, but also the Aurors present expressed disbelief.

But Penello said with certainty,"In fact, he is indeed still alive. Fortunately, Captain Cirilla has successfully arrested him. Combined with the evidence collected previously, he himself, his father Crouch Sr., and none of their Death Eaters hidden in the Ministry of Magic could escape.

Even after hearing this, Scrimgeour"583" remained unmoved and expressed his position in a strong tone:"As the most senior director of the Auror Office, why was I not informed of this event?" I want to see Secretary Fudge. Penello pointed to the seat in the conference room with his chin,"Director, I suggest you take a break in the conference room." These are extraordinary times. Someone within the Ministry of Magic is colluding with the Death Eaters, and our colleagues are conducting intense arrest operations. If you go out at this time, you may run the risk of being accidentally injured."

As she spoke, she made an invitation gesture:"Director Scrimgeour, you'd better take a seat."

"Do you dare to order me? Scrimgeour's eyes widened and he said angrily,"You are my subordinates and should obey my orders!""

"Sorry, Director," Penello bowed slightly to apologize,"Aurors do have to obey the command of the Auror Office, but the Auror Office is under the jurisdiction of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. Minister Fudge is currently away from the Ministry, so we must now obey the orders of Deputy Director of Magical Law Enforcement, Jaina Proudmoore."

Whether Scrimgeour was furious or offered good words, Penello pushed back with such a gentle tone without any sharpness, leaving him alone to sulk.

In Cirilla to capture Little Crouch, Ji While Anna was conducting a purge at the Ministry of Magic, Onyxia was also acting secretly.

She found Karkaroff with the precise positioning provided by Gwen, the artificial maid No. 1.

However, this Durmstrang The headmaster had already left the"lively" Quidditch pitch and was having a heated argument with Snape in a secluded corner.

"I...can't go see him!"Onyxia noticed that Karkaroff's whole body was trembling slightly.

The Dark Mark on his bare left arm had now turned into a dull, burnt black.

This was Voldemort summoning him. A sign that the Death Eaters have returned to him.

According to the rules, when this dark signal is conveyed, all Death Eaters must immediately disapparate and appear next to him.

"I must...escape.……"Karkaroff whispered desperately,"Severus, I still ask as I did last time. Let's escape together, hide anonymously, and hide in a distant place, so that we can still take care of each other."

Snape was silent for a moment. , then shook his head, his voice calm and firm:"You go... I want to stay in Hogwarts"

"Why, why don't you run away? Do you think it's safe to hide here? Karkaroff asked eagerly:"Dumbledore is old!" He can protect you for a while, but he cannot protect you forever! The Dark Lord will kill you sooner or later, there is no need to sacrifice your life for Dumbledore!"

Snape didn't answer.

Seeing that Karkaroff's persuasion was fruitless, Karkaroff said no more, turned around and left in a hurry.

Snape's black eyes kept staring at Karkaroff's retreating back.

He suddenly murmured Saying to herself:"Lily."

Snape's voice revealed deep desolation, and his back looked a little stooped in the dim light. When he turned around again, his face had returned to that expressionless indifference.

"Human emotions are really complicated."Onyxia sighed softly, then turned around and quietly followed Karkaroff who was escaping in a hurry.

It was also an escape, but the situation faced by Karkaroff was not as urgent as Crouch.

After all, Voldemort had just It takes time to resurrect and sort out the relationship between his subordinates. His disobedience will not be noticed for a while, and he will not come to hunt him immediately.

This provides sufficient preparation time for his escape.

So Onyxia witnessed Karkaroff hurried to Durmstrang's ship.

He really wanted to run away, but before leaving, he needed to collect the gold and silver. He couldn't just leave empty-handed.

He took over as the principal of Durmstrang and ran it. Over the years, saving money on school expenses has caused the level of wizards who graduated from Durmstrang to drop so much. Is it because they want to save more Galleons and find a strange place to retire in the future.

Now, although the principal's His term of office was forced to end early, but before fleeing, he was obviously unwilling to let go of the wealth he had worked so hard to save.

As well as all Durmstrang's teaching funds, grants from the Ministry of Magic of various countries, and donations from students' parents , are now in his hands.

These funds are his pension and cannot be taken advantage of by others.

As for how Durmstrang will maintain operations after he takes the money and runs away, it is obviously not within his consideration

"Bang!"

Just as Karkaroff quickly put the valuable things in the room into a box with the [Space Expansion Spell], the door was suddenly exploded by a huge force.

"who?"Karkaroff raised his wand in panic and fired a magic spell backwards almost instinctively.

Entering the room was a graceful black-haired woman. She turned sideways lightly and avoided the oncoming attack. The curse came, and an unfathomable smile appeared on his face:

"What are you doing, Karkaroff? Karkaroff recognized the identity of the visitor at a glance, and his attitude immediately softened:"It's Ms. Katlana. I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you... I just... I just have something to do at home. I need it." Go back to Norway"

"Are you sure it's as simple as going home?"Katlana's smile became even weirder,"I heard some interesting news, Igor..........Your old master, Voldemort has been resurrected. Are you in a hurry to show your loyalty to him?!" (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Don't mention that name again!"Karkaroff's voice revealed an instinctive fear.

But soon, the fear of the woman in front of him overcame the fear of Voldemort.

Voldemort was far away, but the woman in front of him could capture him immediately..Reminiscent of Ms. Catlana’s status in the Ministry of Magic of the Underworld, the headmaster of Durmstrang’s face turned pale.

"Ms. Katlana, you have misunderstood." He explained eagerly, with deep fear in his voice,"I had no intention of meeting him... I'm just packing up now to escape!"

"Really? I do not believe."Onyxia shook her head suspiciously.

Her eyes were like sharp blades, as if they were going to pierce Karkaroff's heart.

"What I said is true!"Karkaroff's face was full of begging, and his voice was trembling,"I really didn't go to see him. I betrayed so many Death Eaters, how could I still have the courage to face him? He will kill me!"

"kill you? Then you can escape to the Ministry of Magic of the Underworld, which should be the safest place for you!"Onyxia pointed out sharply.

Her words were like a hammer, hitting Karkaroff's heart hard, blocking his intention to find a reason.

Indeed, if you don't want to cooperate with Voldemort, you can go Find the Ministry of Magic.

Before the appeasement policy became popular and Fudge showed his lower limit, the Ministry of Magic in the Underworld still had a certain credibility.

Karkaroff was silent.

He knew that he had been forced into a desperate situation, and his heart was full of struggle.

If he really went If he goes to the Ministry of Magic, then his embezzlement of funds and running away with money will be exposed, and he will have to pay back the money at the last possible time.

He won't do it.

The thought of all this golden Galleons being ruined by students , Karkaroff had to say:"What a sin!"

Of course, it's not like Karkaroff has never thought about killing Ms. Katlana 0.5 Presto in front of him - she is alone anyway, and there will be no proof if she kills her.

As a former Death Eater, Karkaroff He is also a good user of black magic.

Otherwise, he would not be qualified to be the principal of Durmstrang.

But he gave up this idea as soon as he was born.

At the end of the first game of the Triwizard Tournament, the opponent relied solely on momentum. The scene of taming three violent fire dragons was still fresh in his memory.

In front of such a fierce man who could subdue fire dragons, a mere former Death Eater was nothing. He didn't dare to fight, but he couldn't talk about it. This scene was He suddenly froze.

Karkaroff thought hard about how to make the humanoid monster in front of him give way.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

He raised his head and said to Onyxia in as flattering a tone as possible:" Ms. Presto, I really have an emergency and need to leave now. If you can hold your hand high and let me live, I will be very grateful."

"Thank you very much."Onyxia nodded after hearing this.

Just when Karkaroff thought the other party was going to refuse, she suddenly asked:"How much does it weigh?"

The picture shows Onyxia.
