Chapter 370 Ludo Is Captured

It was hard to get through another long day.

Sherin couldn't help but sigh that since the end of the Goblet of Fire, he had not rested much except for a short morning of playing slacking the next day.

It was June 27, the third day after the end of the Goblet of Fire, and there were still five days before Hogwarts closed for the holiday.

After breakfast in the Great Hall, the Slytherins first took a History of Magic class with Ravenclaws taught by Professor Binns.

The results of History of Magic were also announced on this day. Daphne, who hated memorizing, only got a pass, but Murray got an excellent. According to Professor Binns, because Sherin and Harry did not take the exam this year, only Murray and Hermione from Gryffindor succeeded in getting an excellent in this course.

After the History of Magic class was the Alchemy class.

This year's Alchemy class mainly learned to make some simple and lightweight items, such as peepholes, memory balls, automatic error-correcting quills, etc. These small items can only be engraved with a simple magic rune to perform some simple functions. If more than one magic rune is engraved on an item, the items as carriers will not be able to withstand the magic and will be damaged.

To solve this problem, we must start with the material and rely on the combination of different materials to enhance the toughness of the carrier, but this is the learning content of the next grade, so let's not talk about it here for now.

In this course, Nott, who came from an alchemy family, performed very well, followed by Draco, Daphne, Murray and Susan, all of whom received excellent grades.

Professor Ibinos Burke, who is in charge of this course, has always been strict with students. In addition, the content of alchemy is difficult to understand, and those tedious and complicated practical operations also require patient review and research many times. Even he did not expect that so many people would perform beyond his expectations.

Susan's academic performance in this school year can be said to have made great progress. She also received excellent grades in the Hufflepuff History of Magic and Charms class the day before. Even her Hufflepuff classmates were surprised by her changes.

Sherin was very pleased when he knew about this.

The Sleeping Dragon Society was indeed an organization created to fulfill his ambition, but he never thought that all members would live only for him.

After all, he is not Voldemort.

He hopes that outside the Sleeping Dragon Society, everyone can have their own life and live their own wonderful life.

While the members contribute to the Sleeping Dragon Society, the Sleeping Dragon Society can also become a platform to support their growth. In addition to the learning atmosphere of friendship, mutual assistance and mutual encouragement, it also provides them with learning opportunities outside of school and access to knowledge that is monopolized by pure-blood families.

Susan is the best example. She was originally unknown in the original world, but under the influence of the Sleeping Dragon Society, she began to become active and diligent, and she also had a desire for knowledge and strength. She was not willing to become a dispensable supporting role in this magical world, and finally she could stand out.

There were no other classes in the afternoon.

Sherin, who thought he could finally take a breath and rest, saw an unexpected scene when he returned to the dormitory room.

Dobby and Winky, who had not seen each other for a long time, stood respectfully beside Sherin's bed, as if they had been waiting in Sherin's room for some time.

At their feet, lay the unconscious Ludovic Bagman.

"Master, Dobby has fulfilled his mission and successfully brought Ludovic Bagman here." Dobby puffed out his chest and said proudly.

"Well done, thank you for your hard work." Sherin said.

"It's not hard at all. It's our honor to serve the master." After saying that, Dobby and Winky bowed at the same time.

"This guy has been missing for two days. Tell me where he has been hiding?" Sherin said with a smile.

"Yes, during the Triwizard Tournament, we were ordered by the master to keep a close eye on Bagman's movements. Compared to the time when he was blocked by goblins in the World Cup, he obviously learned his lesson this time-" Dobby said loudly: "As soon as the game was over, before the goblins had time to find him, he used the Hogwarts Floo Network to sneak away..."

"He didn't know that we had been following him invisibly, and heard the destination he shouted by the fireplace completely-his first destination was to return to his home. He planned to pack up the valuables first to avoid being robbed by goblins again..." Dobby said here, with a disdainful sneer on his face, without any respect that other elves should have for humans.

"We then Apparated to his doorstep and waited for him to pack everything up and prepare to take action when he left. But we didn't expect that this idiot didn't leave directly, but chose to hide at home for a day." Dobby said.

"Ah, do you know why he did that? Knowing that he was in trouble, he didn't leave as soon as possible?" Sherin frowned.

Dobby sneered and said, "We were also puzzled at the time. Later we found out that this guy was reluctant to give up his comfortable home and the power of the head of the Ministry of Magic. Once he really started to escape, he would lose these, which put him in a dilemma of hesitation."

"It's stupid." Sherin shook his head and said.

"We waited for him for a whole day, and the moment he opened the door, we sent him a Stunning Curse on the head." Dobby sneered and said.

"No one saw you?" Sherin said. Since they were doing it outdoors, they had to consider the risk of being exposed. House elves attacking human wizards was an act of rebellion. If they were seen, it would cause a great disturbance.

"Master, don't worry," Winky took over the conversation. "Winky is not only here to assist Dobby, but also responsible for monitoring the surroundings. Winky dares to guarantee with his life that no outsiders saw our actions."

"Very good, then start the next step of the plan!" Sherin ordered.

"Yes, Dobby (Winky) obeys!"

With a loud crackling sound, Dobby and Winky immediately cast Apparition and left.

Sherin fed Bagman a whole bottle of Hell Potion to ensure that he would not wake up in a short time, and then conjured a rope to tie him up before putting him into the suitcase space.

Then, he carefully used magic to open the suitcase that Bagman carried with him - the things that Bagman insisted on taking with him when he was preparing to escape must be his most precious private collections.

Well, unfortunately, after browsing the items in the suitcase, Sherin couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Most of the things inside were collections related to Quidditch - such as the limited edition jerseys he wore when he played for the Wimbledon Wasps and the England Quidditch team. If these things were auctioned, they would still be worth a lot of money, but they were not what Sherin really wanted.

Don't look at Ludo Bagman's sloppy and unreliable appearance. Which family of the head of a department in the Ministry of Magic doesn't have a little background?

In the original book, the reason why Bagman was involved in the Death Eaters and was tried by Crouch was that his father was a close friend of August Rookwood of the Department of Mysteries. Schelling was not so naive as to think that Ludo leaked the secret to Rookwood simply because of his father's friendship with the latter.

According to Schelling's guess, his father, Mr. Bagman, was probably also a supporter of pure-blood supremacy. Although he did not directly join the Death Eaters, he also supported their ideas.
