Chapter 140 Jorkins

Although Lu Yunkai opened his mind because of a joke, his mind was soon closed after chatting with Trelawney.

It was hard for Lu Yunkai to believe that such a person had much to do with Harry's prophecy.

Considering that Dumbledore had also invited people like Lockhart, maybe the old man with white beard was not very accurate in judging people? Maybe if Ron's wand had not exploded in the Chamber of Secrets, Lockhart could have worked in Hogwarts until retirement...

In this way, he talked to Trelawney in her room for a long time about prophecy, Chris's past and other topics, and finally escaped successfully before lunch.

Trelawney seemed to have forgotten that she was going to ask about the prophecy that she had forgotten. Instead, under Lu Yunkai's suggestion, she felt that the forgotten prophecy would bring her more good luck...

After lunch, Lu Yunkai went to the eighth floor again, and after confirming that he had not found the room today, he went back to the dormitory.

Today is another day to study the communication mirror.

Just like that, at night, the huge group of people who went on a one-day tour to Hogsmeade returned.

"Here you go!"

"... I told you not to buy these for me, I don't like them very much."

"Oh! You don't want me to give them to her!" Daphne angrily stuffed a small magic toy made by Zuko into Lu Yunkai's hand.

"Sister... that person, if you don't like it, you can give it to me, I don't mind." Astoria, who was standing aside, looked at Lu Yunkai aggrievedly.

"... I want to give it to you, do you think you can have a good night?" Lu Yunkai smiled and shook his head.

Astoria lowered her head and drew circles.

"Why are you pretending! For you!" Daphne stuffed a handful of candy into her sister's hand.

The little girl's face instantly turned from cloudy to sunny.

"Thank you, sister!!"

"Okay, if you are fine, disappear quickly!"

"Then don't bother my sister and brother-in-law!"

"Stinky girl!!"

Daphne smiled and shook her head helplessly, watching Astoria holding a handful of candy and showing off to her bestie.

"What's up?"

"Oh, I went to the Hog's Head again today, wearing the necklace." Daphne lowered her voice, "I saw the witch we met last time."

"Which one...the one who wants to buy forget-me-not?"

"Yeah." Daphne nodded, "It seems that she is sent by the Ministry of Magic to protect Hogsmeade."

"Ministry of Magic...Okay." Lu Yun laughed.

This is reasonable. Although someone witnessed Sirius in the Czech Republic, who knows if he is making a feint to the east and attacking in the west? Although the Ministry of Magic is very relaxed to the outside world at this time, it is not completely relaxed internally. It also knows to prepare such arrangements during the weekend at Hogwarts. Well, it is still thoughtful.

"But she was scolded by her boss today." Daphne continued, "It seems that her boss told her clearly that she didn't need to go to the Pig's Head Bar for alert, but she still forgot. In front of so many people in the bar, she was scolded badly."

"It seems that her memory is really a big problem." Lu Yunkai laughed, "Then what?"

"Then after her boss left, she came to me again and asked me if I had any potion to treat forgetfulness."

"...Wait a minute."

Lu Yunkai's smile froze instantly.

"Why, you have medicine? Then sell her a bottle! I think she is really pitiful."

"That's not what I'm talking about." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "You said, she remembers you?"

"Yes! She took the initiative to chat with me."

"...Are you selling things?"

"You didn't go, what should I sell? The roses you gave me? Don't make a fuss! In the future, I want to pass it on to our children... Ahem, I mean, pass it on to my children!" Daphne made herself blush.

"She doesn't even remember that her boss didn't let her go to the Hog's Head, so why should she remember you? Is it because you're beautiful?" Lu Yunkai asked back.

Silence.

"I'm still beautiful when I wear a necklace!"

"You're also beautiful without a necklace! That's not what I'm talking about!"

"I know!!" Daphne gave Lu Yunkai a shy look, "It's very strange... but I don't know why."

"... This matter feels weird." Lu Yunkai nodded, "She's actually from the Ministry of Magic..."

"What's wrong with being from the Ministry of Magic?"

"How can someone who can forget the boss's requirement to be followed by the Ministry of Magic be admitted to the Ministry of Magic? How did she pass her NEWTS?"

"..."

That's right! !

Daphne found the problem.

"Do you know her name?" Lu Yunkai felt that he seemed to need to check this witch.

He began to suspect that this witch was not forgetful at all. She was pretending. It was just that when she was facing Daphne, she forgot.

If this person was acting in front of her boss, what was her purpose in acting? Lu Yunkai could only think of one type of person who could fool the Ministry of Magic officials...

Death Eaters who had infiltrated the Ministry of Magic.

Two years ago in Liverpool, that Death Eater said he could find out about him from the Ministry of Magic, which had always been a thorn in Lu Yunkai's heart.

And if that person was a Death Eater, her going to Lu Yunkai and Daphne might be a signal from that group of people: they wanted to take the initiative to approach Lu Yunkai.

Isn't this the first step in Chris's plan? Lu Yunkai didn't want to miss it.

"I don't know. How could I know? Otherwise, go ask yourself the next time you go to Hogsmeade?"

"...Oh! I know! I'll go with you next time!" Lu Yunkai laughed.

"That's not what I meant...it's just...it's settled. I'm really bored today."

"Okay! I know! I know!" Lu Yunkai took out a mirror helplessly and handed it to Daphne.

"What is this?"

"Oh, it's a mirror I tested this afternoon."

"...Or is it your communication one? I got it!"

"This can stably watch the other party talk." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "I tested it for an afternoon and confirmed that it won't crack."

"Meow, you've worked so hard!" Chris suddenly appeared at this time.

Jumped onto Lu Yunkai's shoulder.

"Then I'll go back to the dormitory." Daphne put away the mirror.

She knew that Chris jumped between them because she had something to say to Lu Yunkai, so she chose to avoid it with a tactful look.

"What's the matter?" Lu Yunkai looked at Chris, who was exhausted.

Its fur was dirty.

"That witch is Bertha Jorkins, and she's a very famous person in the Ministry of Magic."

When Chris saw Daphne leave, she jumped off Lu Yunkai's shoulder, coiled in the place where Daphne had just left and began to lick her fur.

"How do you know what I said to Daphne..."

"Meow, I followed her all day today to help you keep an eye on her in case she encounters any danger! She was always with Millicent at first, but later she secretly left Millicent and ran to the Hog's Head Bar, and then met Jorkins." Chris continued.

"Then what? Why is this Jorkins famous?"

"Last summer when Knockturn Alley was closed, I went to see Old Eli, she was in the store at the time." Chris said nonchalantly, "Old Eli told me something about this witch. He said it was a pity for her."

"...A pity?"

"Well, it is said that although she was not popular because of her straightforwardness, her professional ability in the Ministry of Magic was very strong. No one who entered the Ministry of Magic at the same time did better than her..."

"...Hermione?" Lu Yunkai thought of someone.

"It's a bit like that! And she was famous for her meticulous observation and good memory, but her brain is not very smart, which is still worse than Hermione."

"Good memory..." Lu Yunkai's expression froze instantly.

"About seven or eight years ago, she suddenly became very forgetful for some reason." Chris's tone was filled with a bit of inexplicable emotion, "Then she couldn't do things well, but she wasn't fired, she was just squeezed from one department to another, and she went around the Ministry of Magic. Basically, wherever there was a shortage of people, she was sent there... Meow, have you thought of anything?"

"... Oblivion spell." Lu Yunkai's expression was solemn.

Yes, last year he saw the effect of a powerful oblivion spell that went out of control on Lockhart.

That guy turned into an idiot.

"It is said that if the Ministry of Magic staff are cast with the oblivion spell, they will definitely be investigated to the end, but it seems that everyone knows about her affairs, but no one really investigates..."

"Because everyone more or less feels that she was cast with the oblivion spell for some reason?" Lu Yunkai continued half a sentence.

"That's a little bit." Chris nodded, "Old Eli told me that this matter is probably related to Crouch."

"...Crouch? Who?"

"Barty Crouch. The former head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, who was once one step away from becoming the Minister of Magic." Chris continued, "When Jesse was still alive, because he openly opposed Voldemort, almost everyone thought he was the next Minister of Magic, but..."

At this point, Chris lowered her voice.

"But his son is actually a Death Eater, and a very loyal one at that. Old Eli told me that after Voldemort died at Harry's hands, he still refused to believe that Voldemort was dead, and even captured two Aurors from the Ministry of Magic and interrogated them about Voldemort's whereabouts... Why do you have that expression, meow?"

"Nothing, I remembered Trelawney's prophecy. Could the most loyal subordinate be the son of this Crouch?"

"Barty Crouch Jr.? You're overthinking that, he died in Azkaban."

"Oh... So because of his son's affairs, his dream of becoming Minister of Magic was also shattered?" Lu Yunkai brought the topic back to old Crouch.

"Yes! After that, he also left the popular Law Enforcement Department and went to another department. According to old Eli, Jorkins was Crouch's subordinate during the time when she lost her memory and had a lot of contact with him. Later, she suddenly lost her memory and was suddenly transferred away from Crouch." Chris nodded, "But although Crouch was implicated by his son and no longer had hope of becoming the Minister, he still had a lot of connections and influence in the Ministry of Magic, so no one mentioned this matter at all."

"...No one has mentioned it yet! If no one mentioned it, how did Eli know about it?"

"Can it be mentioned in Knockturn Alley? There are all kinds of news in Knockturn Alley! There are so many true and false ones. If you go to Knockturn Alley today, there will be people who can tell you the story of Harry being Voldemort's illegitimate child in a vivid way!" Chris snorted, "Some people also said that the prophecy about Harry was made by his parents to increase their son's status..."

"Harry's prophecy, could it really be Professor Trelawney's?" Lu Yunkai tentatively said out his random thoughts today.

"Yes!"

"..."

"Why, don't look down on Sybil. Although she is confused, she still has the blood of a prophet." Chris didn't understand why Lu Yunkai's expression was stiff, "But don't tell her that the prophecy was made by her. It's not good for her."

"...Oh." Lu Yunkai nodded expressionlessly.

It was quiet.

After a long time, Chris finished licking her fur and climbed up.

"So, don't worry about Bertha Jorkins. It is definitely not a rational behavior to offend those who have lost power in the Ministry of Magic. Once that kind of person goes crazy, they have no scruples than those who are in power." Chris finally threw out the purpose of her talking to Lu Yunkai.

"I understand." Lu Yunkai nodded, "I am worried about Trelawney's prophecy now."

"The most loyal servant?" Chris' voice was full of laughter, "Those guys are all in Azkaban! It's not your turn to worry."

"But..."

"Meow, I'm going to the Forbidden Forest, you go back to sleep."

Chris didn't want to say anything more to Lu Yunkai, and ran away.

Lu Yunkai looked at the cat that escaped and sighed softly.

Azkaban?

That broken place is not reliable. If Voldemort really drags his diehards out of it to help him revive, what should he do?

Alas...
