Witcher at Hogwarts

Chapter 190 The Incompetent Minister of Magic

"In addition, Barty Crouch Jr. also told some other things." Ethan said to Fudge in a low voice.

"What is it?" Fudge asked Ethan expectantly.

"After my many investigations, it is now almost certain that Voldemort is still alive." Ethan said to Fudge,

Fudge seemed to be suddenly shocked by an electric shock, and his face immediately turned pale.

"Ethan, are you kidding? How is this possible?" Fudge asked with a trembling voice, and his expression was very unnatural.

If someone else said this, Fudge would be dismissive and even think that person had some other intention.

However, this sentence was said by Ethan now.

Now Fudge trusts Ethan very much, and he doesn't think Ethan is trying to scare him by saying this.

"I told you before that Voldemort made Horcruxes."

Hearing what Ethan said, Fudge nodded quickly, he was very impressed by this matter.

"I discovered that Voldemort not only made one Horcrux, he used these Horcruxes to preserve his soul, which made him almost immortal." Ethan said to Fudge.

"More than one?" Fudge's voice was a little sharp. Voldemort's having one Horcrux was enough to scare him. Now that he knew that Voldemort had more than one Horcrux, Fudge was already feeling horrified.

"So, where is that mysterious man?" Fudge asked with a trembling voice.

"I don't know, Barty Crouch Jr. is even willing to use the Forgetting Curse on himself in order to protect his master's secrets," Ethan said.

Fudge's expression turned even worse. He leaned on the back of the chair and tried to sort out something.

He had no ability at all and had no idea how to deal with Voldemort.

"But there is good news. Voldemort's current situation must be very bad." Ethan saw that Fudge was about to collapse emotionally, so he comforted Fudge.

"What's going on?" Fudge asked quickly after hearing what Ethan said.

"Voldemort was very seriously injured by Harry, and that injury almost killed him, so Voldemort is currently in a state of neither life nor death."

"What does this mean?" Fudge asked cautiously.

"Voldemort is currently in a strange state of neither life nor death. He can only survive by hiding in a corner and will not cause any harm to us for the time being." Ethan said.

This news made Fudge look slightly better.

"Minister, the most critical question now is that there are still many former Death Eaters in the Ministry of Magic. If they hear the news that Voldemort is not dead, what will they do." Ethan asked Fudge.

Fudge's expression gradually became worried. Most of those who had been Death Eaters were from various pure-blood families. That's why the Ministry of Magic could not arrest so many people during the trial.

That's why they acquiesce to those people using lame excuses like "being under the Imperius Curse" to excuse themselves.

At that time, everyone thought that Voldemort was completely dead, but now that Fudge learned that Voldemort still existed, the identities of these "former Death Eaters" suddenly became dangerous.

"Ethan, listen one by one. I'm going to give you a new task. You have to monitor those former Death Eaters. If there is anything strange about them, you have to tell me immediately."

Fudge said to Ethan somewhat uneasily.

"Okay, I'll do it." Ethan replied.

An imperceptible smile appeared on Ethan's lips, inducing Fudge to say that he would monitor the pure-blood family, which was the real purpose of Ethan's words.

Fudge has finally accepted the news that Voldemort is not dead, and Ethan's hard work has finally paid off.

At least now Fudge will not refuse to believe in the existence of Voldemort like he originally did, and will hinder others from tracking Voldemort.

"By the way, in order to prevent Barty Crouch Jr. from escaping or having other Death Eaters come to rescue him, I used some tricks on him."

Ethan said to Fudge.

"How is it? Is he dead?" Fudge asked hurriedly.

"No, I just lost the ability to escape." Ethan replied calmly.

Hearing this, Fudge breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand to show that he didn't care what little tricks Ethan used on Barty Crouch Jr.

Ethan was extremely disappointed in Fudge at this time. If he were a competent Minister of Magic, he would execute Barty Crouch Jr. as soon as possible to avoid future troubles.

But even now, Fudge is still planning to use Barty Crouch Jr. to attack Barty Crouch.

Fudge, who was thinking about how to deal with Voldemort, lost interest in continuing the conversation and told Ethan that he could leave.

After leaving the minister's office, Ethan continued his mission and arrived at Barty Crouch's office.

Ethan searched Barty Crouch's office carefully and found nothing else, which proved that Barty Crouch indeed had nothing to do with the Death Eaters.

But Ethan unexpectedly found a thick stack of letters, all written by people who tried to curry favor with Barty Crouch during this period.

Ethan saw many letters written by pure-blood families to Barty Crouch, including several letters from Lucius Malfoy, who had always had a close relationship with Fudge.

Interestingly, Ethan even saw a letter from Dolores Umbridge in the pile.

Ethan collected all these letters into his bag. These letters have a lot of work to do.

After taking the letter, Ethan quickly returned to his office.

After returning to the office, Ethan opened the letters and read them carefully one by one.

As expected, most of the letters were deliberately intended to build relationships with Barty Crouch, the future Minister of Magic.

Especially Umbridge's letter, which actually hinted that Barty Crouch could be given some "unknown information" about Fudge.

A cruel smile appeared on Ethan's lips, and he couldn't wait to see Fudge's expression when he saw Umbridge writing these letters.

Umbridge has always been Fudge's confidant, and Fudge has never been a generous person. Ethan knew that Fudge would never tolerate the betrayal of his confidant.

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door in Ethan's office.

"Come in," Ethan said. He was a little curious about who would come to him at this time.

Unexpectedly, the person who entered the door was Lucius Malfoy. He was wearing an elegant black robe and an exquisite cane with a snake head.

Lucius Malfoy walked into Ethan's office naturally and sat on the sofa without waiting for Ethan's invitation.

"Mr. Ethan, I accidentally left some letters in Barty Crouch's office. Can you please return them to me?" Lucius Malfoy's cold gray-blue eyes tightened Staring at Ethan's face.

The moment he learned that Barty Crouch had been arrested, he regretted the letters he wrote to Barty Crouch. He also knew that Fudge was a person who could not tolerate betrayal and was very petty.

If Fudge knew the contents of the letter, there would definitely be a big rift in the relationship between the two.
