Chapter 155 Little Crouch
"Who are you?"
"Why are you so scared of me?"
"Answer my question, or I'll kill you and no one will know."
Lu Yunkai looked coldly at the man with an evil smile in front of him and asked in a low voice.
The man who had just tried to attack him was now lying on the ground, controlled by Lu Yunkai with a binding spell, and the wand he was holding had been sold to the system by Lu Yunkai.
This is a mountainous area, and Voldemort's hiding place is not far away, so Lu Yunkai is a little nervous.
"How are you going to kill me?"
The man still smiled and didn't take Lu Yunkai's words seriously.
"Meow, he shouldn't be an Auror, but the little Crouch you were worried about yesterday. He may have heard what you said to Lucius!"
Chris, who was squatting on Lu Yunkai's shoulder, called out.
Lu Yunkai glanced at Chris.
I know this without you saying it. Aurors are employees of the Ministry of Magic after all, and they follow procedures when doing things. How can someone suddenly use a spell to attack when riding on a flying broom?
However, Lu Yunkai saw the expression on this man's face that seemed to say "I am a bad guy and you are a scumbag", which made him want to teach this wizard who has the final say now.
"This bottle is the explosive corrosion potion, this bottle is the skyfire potion, and this one is the potion that I have never used since I made it. It is said that it is specially used to deal with wizards, and the higher the opponent's magic skills, the more effective it is." Lu Yunkai flipped his hand and placed three bottles of potions on the ground, "Do you choose or do I choose?"
"Hehehe, kid, it looks good. But why don't you just use the killing curse?" The wizard still smiled evilly and didn't take Lu Yunkai's words seriously.
"Kill you? Are you qualified? My hands are dirty." Lu Yunkai also smiled, "Okay, I'll help you choose a bottle. In fact, I've always been curious about the effect of this highly toxic potion..."
"Meow! Lu Yunkai! You don't really want to kill someone, do you?" Chris looked at Lu Yunkai's light-hearted look, and suddenly felt a little goosebumps on her back, "Don't be impulsive!!"
It felt that Lu Yunkai was serious...
How could it be true!
Lu Yunkai glared at Chris.
And seeing that Lu Yunkai really picked up a bottle of potion from the ground and opened the lid, as if he was going to pour it into his mouth, the wizard's smile must have changed.
"Okay, young man, I was just teasing you just now, otherwise you would have died long ago." The wizard changed his method and admitted his weakness.
"So, how did your father get you out of Azkaban?"
Lu Yunkai still held the potion bottle in his hand and stared at the wizard and asked.
"...Do you know who I am?"
"Haha. Not only do I know who you are, but I also specifically said those words to Lucius Malfoy in front of your house elf." Lu Yunkai looked at the man in front of him coldly, "I just don't know if your ears are working well, did you hear it?"
This was not something Lu Yunkai made up, but what Chris thought of after hearing Lu Yunkai talk about the empty seat last night.
"Meow! This is a good thing! I don't believe that if that little Crouch really heard what you said to Lucius at that time, he would not come to you!"
After Lu Yunkai came to his senses, he also felt that this was the case, but he really didn't expect that this madman would actually use a sneak attack to greet him...
"If I didn't hear it, I wouldn't come to you. Brat, I didn't realize that your brain is quite good, then why are you hanging out with idiots like Malfoy?"
"Stupid? I think he is very smart. At least he knows that he can only do other things if he is alive. Unlike some guys, they run here to talk about ideals even if they are dead." Lu Yunkai snorted.
"You little brat, it's not your turn to teach me a lesson." Crouch snorted, "You told Lucius yesterday that the Dark Lord had contacted you?"
"Why, do you want to meet him?" Lu Yunkai narrowed his eyes.
"Meow! Don't tell him that Voldemort doesn't remember him!!" Chris reminded him quickly.
Lu Yunkai's mouth, which had already opened, closed.
"Of course! I heard that you need someone to offer his body to him, and I'm happy to do it!!"
Crouch's eyes flashed with a kind of fanatic light.
"You answer me first, how did your father get you out of Azkaban?" Lu Yunkai didn't pick up his words.
"My mother exchanged me for her own prison."
"...What do you mean?" Lu Yunkai didn't understand.
Crouch quickly told his story to Lu Yunkai, because he knew that if he didn't explain the matter clearly, Lu Yunkai would never believe him.
God knows whether he has "abandoned the dark and joined the light" (but in his eyes, the Ministry of Magic is not the light).
It turned out that his mother was seriously ill and had no hope of recovery, so she asked old Crouch to use her to go to Azkaban to exchange her son. Then, for some reason, the two people who drank the compound potion and exchanged their appearances completed an exchange in Azkaban, and the stupid Dementors did not even notice it.
But after being released from Azkaban, little Crouch did not feel that his life was easy.
His father was not very concerned about him because his dream of becoming the Minister of Magic was completely shattered.
He just controlled him with the Imperius Curse, put an invisibility cloak on him, and let the house elves take care of him.
"Your father is good to you, and he even agreed to let you watch the Quidditch World Cup."
Lu Yunkai snorted after listening to the story.
Lu Yunkai didn't actually care whether this story was believable or not. Although he was inclined to believe it, Voldemort had to make this judgment.
"Hmph! I want to make him look good when I get the chance! He actually used the Imperius Curse to control me!" Little Crouch didn't seem to appreciate his father's favor.
"You wait here, I'll ask the Dark Lord if he wants to see you." Lu Yunkai didn't want to get involved in the household affairs, so he changed the subject.
"I'll go with you! I really volunteered my body for him..."
"If you are willing to offer it, he will definitely be willing to take it??" Lu Yunkai interrupted Crouch Jr.
Hearing what Lu Yunkai said, Crouch Jr. quickly shook his head.
"Follow the instructions of the Dark Lord!!"
"...Well, just wait here while I leave." Lu Yunkai got on the broomstick again.
"I can use Disapparation to take you there..."
"You don't know that Apparition will be monitored??" Lu Yunkai glared at Crouch again with a shy face, and then flew away without caring about the binding spell on him.
"Meow! If you really know how to apparate, can you also use a broomstick?" Chrissy, who was squatting on Lu Yunkai's shoulder and watched him brag all the time, shouted.
"He doesn't know!" Lu Yunkai was a little annoyed. He was not in the mood to joke with Chris, "Do you think I should kill him?"
"Are you really not afraid of getting your hands dirty?"
"I'm more afraid that Voldemort will urge me to get Harry's blood!!"
Lu Yunkai shouted angrily.
"Meow, I don't think so." Chris shook the cat's head, "Even if you can believe the story he told about the Azkaban escape, do you think Voldemort would believe it? What if this guy reveals information about Voldemort? Give it to his father, it will be a great contribution to help Old Crouch regain the position of Minister of Magic!"
"...Yes!!" Lu Yunkai's eyes lit up, "You're right! Well, Voldemort must not be able to trust a person whose name he can't even remember...especially if he wants that servant to willingly sacrifice his body. A Someone who is neither a servant nor a willing servant will disturb his ceremony."
"Meow, so you don't need to kill him." Chris continued, "Keep him useful."
"I know it's useful." Lu Yunkai sighed, "But he... is really a madman! It feels a bit too dangerous to use such a person."
"That's no more dangerous than lying to Voldemort." Chris meowed, "I see you've become quite addicted to teasing Voldemort recently. Are you still afraid of this kind of thing?"
"...Okay."
Lu Yunkai sighed softly.
yes! No matter how dangerous it is, it will never be more dangerous than what I am doing now...
But there was nothing to be afraid of. Lu Yunkai didn't even think that Voldemort could do anything to him, let alone one of his little followers who might not even remember his name.
Take one step at a time!
…
"Although I don't mean to offend you, I still want to say that your subordinates are either traitors or idiots."
Half an hour later, in the castle where Voldemort was.
Lu Yunkai said angrily to Voldemort, who was still motionless on the sofa.
"Why are you so angry? I think there is nothing wrong with what they did!" Voldemort seemed unhappy with Lu Yunkai's anger, "We are not people who want to live in the shadows all the time. It may not be a bad thing to announce my return earlier."
"Then let someone else get Harry's blood for you!" Lu Yunkai snorted, "These bastards are making such a fuss, good guy, it looks like there are so many Death Eaters everywhere, but they can solve the problem of resurrection. Something about the ceremony?”
"You haven't even settled the servant matter yet..."
"Why is it not solved? I have already found a servant who is willing to dedicate himself to you, that little Barty Crouch whose name you can't even remember!" Lu Yunkai waved his hand, "But I haven't yet I was sure that I could trust him completely, so I didn’t bring him to see you.”
Then, Lu Yunkai told Voldemort the story that Crouch had just told him.
"The story this man told may not be credible." Sure enough, as Chris thought, Voldemort's suspicion broke out.
"I know! But I don't know Legilimency, and there is no other way to determine whether what he said is true." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "Otherwise, I will bring him to see you directly."
Actually, he has Veritaserum, but he doesn't use it.
"Well, you did a good job, very cautious, and very organized." Voldemort nodded, with a little appreciation in his tone, "You can contact him on my behalf. If there is anything, you can convey it to me... …”
"He believes what I said! Why should he believe me when I can't see you?" Lu Yunkai was speechless, "I don't want to be worried about that lunatic."
"Then what do you mean? Didn't you say you wanted him to sacrifice his body for me?"
"It depends on you." Lu Yunkai spread his hands, "Whether you are willing to take a risk and meet him in person so that you can evaluate whether he is really reliable. If it is possible, then I will see how to solve it. I’ll get Harry’s blood, but if that doesn’t work, I’ll keep looking.”
"Hmm. Let me think about it." Voldemort was silent.
A long time.
"Then forget it for today. When I come to see you again in two days, you can tell me your decision."
As Lu Yunkai spoke, he pretended to take out a potion bottle from his pocket, which contained a small bottle of unicorn blood.
And the snake that had been coiled up beside him, whether it was sleeping or in a daze, suddenly seemed to have been switched on, raised its head towards Lu Yunkai, opened its mouth and showed its fangs.
A drop of venom flowed out of the snake's fangs, Lu Yunkai collected it in a potion bottle, and then poured it into Voldemort's mouth along with the blood.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Voldemort, who drank the unicorn's blood, was obviously in better spirits and nodded.
"It's okay, I should do it." Lu Yunkai sighed, "Then I'll go."
"Well."
...
"So, the Dark Lord doesn't want to see me?"
"Do you think he will believe the story you told?"
"I can prove it! I can go and kill my father..."
"That's useless." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "The Dark Lord is willing to believe in a person and what that person does has little to do with it. It depends on him."
Quiet.
Crouch lowered his head.
Still in the mountain where he had just attacked Lu Yunkai, he looked quite decadent sitting cross-legged on the ground.
"But he will believe in those who are loyal to him." Lu Yunkai continued to say mysteriously, "I will also help you talk to him. When time permits, I will take you to see him."
"...Thank you." Crouch Jr. finally perked up a little after hearing what Lu Yunkai said, and then bowed to Lu Yunkai in a proper manner.
He also accepted the fact that Lu Yunkai's current status is higher than his.
"Okay, you go hide first. Don't come out to cause trouble recently, like those idiots last night, they are useless except for attracting the attention of the Ministry of Magic..."
"...I summoned the Dark Mark last night."
"..." Lu Yunkai stretched out his hand and rubbed his brows.
"I just want to prove that we are not all cowards!!"
"Then what? Hinder the Dark Lord's resurrection plan?? Do you think that the Dark Lord can be resurrected just by giving you one arm and one leg?"
"...I'm sorry."
"Forget it." Lu Yunkai waved his hand, took out a mirror from the system and handed it to Crouch Jr., "Go back and wait for my news. When he is willing to see you, I will send you a message through this mirror."
"Okay." Crouch Jr. took the mirror with care. "Then..."
"Find a place to live by yourself!!"
"Oh."
