Chapter 234: For The Greater Good

Late at night, Crouch's mansion.

Alvin's figure appeared on a tree not far from Crouch's mansion.

After accompanying Cho and Luna to finish their homework, Alvin also left Hogwarts to meet Crouch.

After confirming that there was only Crouch in the mansion and there were no magic traps, Alvin walked into the main entrance.

Sensing that someone had entered his home, Crouch also greeted him.

"You finally came."

Seeing Alvin, Crouch was also relieved.

Crouch had been frightened for the past two days for fear that his son would see any flaws.

But fortunately, Barty Jr. is very confident in his curse and thinks he has successfully controlled Crouch. So he doesn't put too much thought into him.

Ignoring Crouch's complaints, Alvin went straight to the point.

"What's their plan? have you seen Voldemort?"

Crouch took Alvin into the study, closed the door, and finally took out a Magical object. After doing all this cautiously, he began to tell his intelligence.

"You're right. Barty brought Bellatrix yesterday, and the two of them besieged me directly. Seeing they didn't want to kill me, I pretended to be defeated according to your instructions and then was captured."

When Barty Jr. attacked him, Crouch sighed unconsciously. Although Alvin had said it before, he couldn't help but feel a little sadness in his heart until this happened.

As a father, he felt like a failure.

"Okay, don't sigh. Hurry up and say, I have to go back to sleep. Hogwarts has a curfew."

Interrupting Crouch's emotions blindly, Alvin said impatiently.

Crouch is choked. Does this boy have no sympathy?

You've got a plan for Voldemort. Why do you care about the curfew?

Crouch could only complain in his heart and could only continue to speak.

Alvin also understood a general idea.

As he expected. Barty Jr. used Crouch's identity to intervene in the Triwizard Tournament. They also attacked a person who Alvin also knew.

Ludo Bagman.

As the Head of the Department of Magical Games and Sports at the Ministry of Magic, he was the main participant and one of the competition referees.

Barty Jr. and Bellatrix used Crouch's identity to trick Bagman into going home, then used the Imperius Curse to control him and let Barty Jr. replace Bagman.

And Moody survived because he didn't have to teach at Hogwarts this semester.

If nothing else, they'd still do something with the Goblet of Fire and let Harry join the Triwizard Tournament.

As for Voldemort, Bellatrix was now taking care of him. They lived where no one could find him, and the other party would appear when Crouch was needed.

"Do you know what plans they have?"

Crouch shook his head. He was controlled for too short a time to overhear the conversation.

"All I know is that they're going to start from the Triwizard Tournament, and it's unclear if the target is Harry Potter."

"But..." Crouch hesitated for a moment but still said the name, "Voldemort's condition is very bad. Bellatrix asked him to control me to go to Gringotts and get some Galleons. But the two also got into a dispute."

"Bellatrix wanted me to take out all the Galleons. But he said it would attract other people's attention, so he could only participate."

When Crouch said him, he naturally meant Barty Jr. He didn't want to mention his son's name anymore.

As for Voldemort, after seeing Alvin's methods, Crouch suddenly felt that Voldemort was just a stronger dark wizard.

At least, he is relatively simple.

Hearing what Crouch said, Alvin's fingers tapped the table unconsciously again, which was his habit when thinking about problems.

Is Voldemort in such a bad state?

In fact, Alvin didn't know that although Voldemort finally escaped when he was in Albania, Dumbledore was not a vegetarian.

Coupled with the reason for making some Horcruxes, Voldemort's current state is definitely worse than he imagined.

Seeing that there was no useful information from Crouch, Alvin stopped asking.

"How are you going to help me bring him back?"

Crouch was a little worried about Barty Jr. He had already gone further on the road of Death Eaters. If the attack on the Ministry of Magic officials broke out, entering Azkaban would be a luxury.

He didn't feel bad for Barty Jr. If it wasn't for the agreement with his deceased wife, Crouch would have given up his son long ago.

But when he thought of that gentle woman who begged him at the last moment, Crouch couldn't let go of Barty Jr.

"Don't worry. I will let Barty return as a hero in the end."

Alvin smiled and said, "If he suddenly betrayed Voldemort at the last moment, then we can fully say that Barty Jr did those things for the Greater Good."

"Betraying Voldemort?"

Crouch knows his son's situation and lets Barty betray Voldemort. Crouch might as well hope that Alvin will not be in trouble.

"It doesn't matter whether he betrayed Voldemort or not," Alvin said confidently, "we just need to show the world that he did it."

After speaking, he took out a handbag and handed it to Crouch, "This is the Taming Potion. You find an opportunity to put these potions into his food. After adding up, every word you say, he will do it subconsciously."

"When Barty Jr. attacked Voldemort, everyone believed he was a hero."

"Even Voldemort would think that everything happening now is a play led by you and your son. With this credit, you can completely take over the Ministry of Magic."

Taking the handbag, Crouch felt a deep chill in his heart. Why hasn't he heard of such a terrible potion before?

And what Alvin said, all for the Greater Good, which Crouch always felt was not a good word.
