Chapter 523: Its so hard (2/2)
Perhaps, the reality has been exaggerated to the point that there is no need for the woman to continue exaggerating.
After Bertha Jorkins sorted out the information, he took the things to the director's office, but Mr. Barty Crouch seemed to be away.
”I don't know if he will take it seriously.” Bertha Jorkins doubted this, and Barty Crouch hoped to restore friendly relations with the American magic world.
”Jorkins.” Ludo Bagman asked. ”Is Batty there?”
”The director is not here.”
”It's really bad. I have a document here that needs his signature.” Ludo Bagman said distressedly: ”When Barty comes back, remember to remind him to sign. You will need it tomorrow.”
”Ok.”
Bertha Jorkins immediately agreed, and as an employee of Barty Crouch's office, this is also one of her jobs.
However, after get off work, when Barty Crouch did not show up, Bertha Jorkins could only send the document to the house of his boss, Mr. Barty Crouch, for signature.
Crouch is a famous family of wizards. When Bertha passed by, her boss, Mr. Batty Crouch, was not at home.
The house elf told Bertha that the master Barty Crouch would be back soon, and asked her to wait in the hall for a while.
Bertha Jorkins agreed. She thought it was better to hand the document to the other person in person, watch her sign, and then send it to Ludo Bagman.
Putting the document on the table, Bertha drank the tea from the family elves.
Just as she was looking at the furnishings in the hall of her boss, she suddenly heard a low voice of conversation, as if someone was talking.
Bertha stood up suspiciously and walked towards the kitchen in the direction of the sound, the sound becoming more pronounced. In the kitchen, the house elf seemed to be talking to a man, but there was no one in the kitchen.
Is someone hiding in an invisible cloak?
”House elves call that man's master?” Bertha Jorkins immediately realized something. Could it be Barty Crouch Jr., the son of Barty Crouch Sr.?
But ~ Barty Crouch's son has died in Azkaban prison.
”Could it be...”
It's hard for Bertha Jorkins to believe that Barty Crouch Sr. would do something like that.
”How will you be here?”
The house elf noticed someone behind him, suddenly turned his head and looked at Bertha Jorkins nervously.
”Who were you talking to just now, it was Barty Crouch Jr., right!” Bertha Jorkins took a step forward.
”I don't know what you are talking about?” The house elf was very nervous, trying to prevent the other party from coming forward to uncover the invisible cloak.
”Jorkins, what are you doing here?” Barty Crouch appeared behind Bertha Jorkins without warning.
”Mr. Barty Crouch, did you save your son from Azkaban?” Bertha Jorkins looked at her boss in disbelief. In her memory, Barty Crouch was a hateful person, he even almost became the Minister of Magic, because his son was a Death Eater that made him miss that opportunity.
”Jorkins, you shouldn't be nosy, this is a terrible mistake, sorry.” Barty Crouch sighed, raised his wand and pointed at the witch in front of him, preparing to make him forget this memory.
However, if you want to keep the secret completely, you have to use a powerful forgetting curse to make her completely forget what happened today.
Bertha Jorkins, who was under the Forgotten Curse, was completely stupid.
”Master, she will forget what happened just now, right.” The house elf was shaking all over.
”Yes.” Barty Crouch looked at the woman in front of him, shook his head helplessly and said: ”I use a very strong forgetting spell, which is very likely to cause permanent damage to her memory, but this is also impossible. , Who makes her like to be nosy.”
