Chapter 670 Threesome, do you want to gossip

"Ah..." Hearing Harry's request unexpectedly, Winky froze in place.

"Is there any problem, Winky?" Harry raised his eyebrows and continued to ask, "Did Mr. Crouch say that you must deliver the trays to those patients yourself?"

"No...no!" Winky hurriedly defended, explaining with a embarrassed expression, "It's just... this is Winky's job, and she should do it by herself."

"No, this is not your job." Harry smiled and shook his head, "Winky, you are the elf of Mr. Crouch's family, and he is the only one you need to serve. In this nursing home, you You are a resident here, and you have no obligation to serve other residents, so it's fine for me to come."

"Then... thank you, sir." Winky bowed again to Harry with gratitude, handed out the plate in his hand, and walked away from here step by step.

After its figure completely disappeared at the end of the corridor, Harry looked away, and at the same time suppressed the smile on his face.

He controlled the dinner plate with a levitation spell, took out a clean medicine spoon from the ring, took a little sample of each dish, and briefly checked the ingredients with his wand.

After confirming that there was no problem with the food, he carried the plate and walked towards the separate ward.

That's right... even if that gentleman really had some intentions, he wouldn't be so stupid as to poison the food, let alone this is only the first day.

"Bertha Jorkins . . . you're connected to quite a few people."

The reason why Harry proposed to deliver food for Winky was because he had just pieced together two new clues in his mind!

Neville - Oblivion Curse - Bad Brains - Bertha Jorkins

Barty Crouch - Blinky Meals - Ward - Bertha Jorkins

And the intersection of these two clues is that Bertha Jorkins once worked under Batty Sr.!

Sirius once told Harry that Bertha Jorkins used to be a gossip who could accurately remember all kinds of gossip. She left the old Batty's department before she became the dull and forgetful person she was later. .

And this sudden change is actually very similar to Neville's situation, that is to say...she was probably also brain-damaged by the powerful Forgetting Curse!

If this inference is true, then who was the one who used the Oblivion Curse on her in the first place?

And... why did Barty Crouch rush to ask Winky to deliver the meals? Rather than trying to help Harry share the pressure, it would be better to say... he wanted Winky to spy on the situation in the ward.

And the only person in the ward who could have anything to do with Barty Crouch was Bertha Jorkins!

So, the inference from all the clues so far is that Barty Crouch used the Oblivion Curse on Bertha Jorkins!

After delivering the lunch, Harry asked Mrs. Straw to take good care of these patients, especially the food and clothing expenses must be carefully checked, and then rushed to the front desk of the nursing home.

He inquired about Barty Crouch's recent entry and exit records in the nursing home, and found that the other party had hardly gone out since he moved in, and locked himself in the house most of the time.

It was only on the day when the warriors fought the fire dragon that Crouch left the nursing home alone. The reason for registering at that time was to go to Hogwarts as a spectator.

The Triwizard Tournament... After some analysis, Harry finally discovered that Barty Crouch was actually involved in the biggest conspiracy of the year, and his role might still be important.

It's just that the old gentleman's Occlumency is quite proficient. Although Harry thought he could break through the opponent's blockade, it was hard not to arouse the opponent's vigilance.

At that time, if he seized the opportunity to tamper with his memory and blatantly turn against Harry, things might go wrong.

But... Although Barty Crouch will have trouble moving now, it doesn't mean that he is completely flawless.

Thank you Voldemort, because it was the memory of this old basilisk that taught Harry... Although the house elves are not weak in magic and are good at many special magics, they cannot close their brains.

Their consciousness can be controlled, their brains can be invaded, and even their memories... can also be tampered with!

...

After Christmas, Harry didn't go home again, but lived directly in the nursing home with Hermione and Luna.

Strictly speaking, he was lucky enough to break through the enemy's trick this time, and it was not a prepared confrontation, so he felt that now was not the time to take it lightly.

Anyway, living here is actually not bad, he already has a special room, he can study with experienced therapists every day, and the most important thing is...he doesn't have to cook.

After two days of such leisurely days, towards the end of the month, Harry received a letter from Rita Skeeter.

After reading the contents of the letter, Harry smiled wryly, and found Hermione with the letter, and the latter became popular all of a sudden, as expected.

"What the hell is going on here?" Hermione stared at Harry and asked dissatisfiedly, "That annoying woman, why did she suddenly write to you, wanting to fire the two of us having an affair with Luna?!"

"Well, although this is their temporary plan, the general intention remains the same." Harry explained helplessly, "Hermione, there is a saying that 'flies don't bite seamless eggs', we now The defense is too perfect, and those opponents will take the bait only if they take the initiative to reveal some flaws."

At this stage, Harry has almost maximized his own defense, but this is actually not entirely a good thing.

Because as the target that both the Death Eaters and the Ministry of Magic wanted to attack, if Harry didn't give the other party a chance, it would only make all the forces fall into a deadlock.

And in this way, it is equivalent to that they are all separately accumulating strength, and the final struggle will turn into a hard power stud that will do everything possible.

This will undoubtedly increase one's own losses, which is not in line with Harry's interests.

Therefore, he must think of a way to instigate the opponent to make him unable to develop with peace of mind, such as exposing his own weakness, and while luring the opponent to act rashly, his own side will follow the plan.

And if it is aimed at the Ministry of Magic, then Harry's biggest 'weakness' at present is naturally his relationship with Hermione.

Don't forget, Hermione is the chosen warrior, while Harry is the referee of the Triwizard Tournament. There is definitely something to be said for their relationship and status.

In fact, Harry originally planned to do the same with the Death Eaters, but when he decided on the first version of the plan, he gave up this plan.

Facts have proved that there is a wise man on the Death Eater side now, so they won't be fooled by such a fool.

"Even so, I still don't understand why it is necessary to fire up the scandal of three people?" After hearing Harry's explanation, Hermione was still a little sullen, and threw the letter directly on the table.

But then, she found that Harry was looking at her innocently.

"You...what's that look on your face?" Hermione frowned puzzled, "Looking at you like that, why does it seem like it's all my responsibility?"

In response to her, Harry shook his head weakly, and shook his head wildly like a rattle.

"Harry, you made it clear to me!!"

Chapter 670 Luna: Oh, the wisdom of mortals

In other words, why is this matter Hermione's fault?

Because at the previous Christmas ball, Hermione really did a good job on Harry's side.

The plan to take the initiative to expose the flaws was made by Harry early in the morning, but he entrusted full authority to the people in the magazine to handle it.

And no matter how big-hearted those guys were, it was impossible for them to decide to pass on Harry's lace without authorization.

So in fact, their plan is to take advantage of this Christmas ball to fry a wave of Harry and Hermione's CP.

After all, "The Quibbler" only needs to spend more time describing how Harry and Hermione were at the ball, what happened in private, and what happened before and after the game. Can't wait to take the bait.

Besides, there is a man named Akinbad, he is also concerned about this matter, so let him contribute to the flames.

And once they dare to openly accuse Harry of helping Hermione cheat, then Harry can use his tricks and catch them off guard again.

But to everyone's surprise, a little mistake happened at the dance, and Hermione actually asked Luna to be her dance partner!

In this way, a good CP will get married directly~

From Harry's point of view, Rita Skeeter was the one who came up with this bad idea, after all, she was the best at making things up.

But she is quite sensible, at least she knows to let herself decide before the new issue of the magazine is published.

"Is that so..." After carefully understanding the cause and effect, Hermione couldn't help showing a trace of embarrassment.

She really didn't expect that what she thought was a very clever idea unexpectedly affected Harry's original plan by coincidence.

But Harry wouldn't blame her, after all, he didn't pay much attention to it himself.

As a leader of a faction, Harry doesn't need to do everything by himself, but should control the general direction of the whole.

Besides, didn't Hermione 'apologize' that night~

It's just that the problem now is that the matter between the original two people involved a third person. Even if Hermione didn't mind, they still had to consider the other person.

"That's right... what should the crazy girl do now?" Hermione asked with a tangled face.

"I just received the news, and I haven't had time to ask her." Harry shrugged helplessly, "But in this sense, if this letter can be sent to me, it means that Mr. Lovegood should I agree..."

"How is this possible?" Hermione exclaimed in bewilderment, "Why would he agree?"

From Hermione's point of view, this is absolutely incredible. As Luna's father, Xenophilius could let his daughter get involved in this kind of thing? !

"I also think this is nonsense, but he should have agreed." Harry pointed to the seal on the envelope and explained, "This has the official seal of the magazine on it, and this thing has always been kept in Lovegood Even if Rita Skeeter had ten guts, she would never dare to steal from Mr.'s safe!"

Harry was as strange as Hermione was now, because it seemed to him that since Luna's mother had passed away, Xenophilius had definitely protected her as the apple of his eye.

If it were Harry, he would definitely not agree to make fun of his daughter's reputation.

What's more, this strategy itself has some problems.

Because even if there was an oolong from the partner, Harry and Hermione still danced in the end, and even danced and escaped, which didn't affect them at all to fire CP!

So, why...

Bang Bang Bang ~

Just as Harry and Hermione were frowning and thinking hard, there was an untimely knock on the door again... Hey, why did you say 'again'?

"This movement..." Hermione was stunned for a moment, and soon thought of who was knocking on the door.

"I just chased it~" Harry struggled to get up, "I'll go and drive."

Well, this is great, the three protagonists are all together.

But as the saying goes, disaster can't be avoided. Anyway, this matter itself has something to do with Luna. Since we have to talk about it sooner or later, it's better to hurry up sooner rather than later.

After opening the door, Luna really stood at the door, looking at the room expressionlessly.

"Are you two whispering?" Luna ignored Harry, but walked into the room on her own, "So, are you done?"

"Uh, I ran into something rather tangled." Harry picked up the envelope on the table with a sullen expression, "About this..."

"I agreed."

However, Luna didn't even read the content of the letter at all, but only glanced at the official seal of the magazine, and then leisurely opened her mouth to respond to the content of the letter.

"You agreed?" Hermione couldn't help being stunned. "We haven't talked about what it is?"

Even Harry is full of puzzlement now, secretly thinking that this girl has good four-color vision, but she is not clairvoyant either?

"Is that letter asking you to write about the scandal between the three of us?" Luna glanced at Harry, who immediately nodded weakly.

"Then are you curious why my father agreed to this plan?" She then turned to Hermione, and the schoolmaster girl also nodded weakly.

"The reason is very simple. I proposed this plan."

"What?!" The two of Hahe were stunned at the same time, looking at each other in blank dismay.

No... what's the situation?

Harry always thought that this should be Rita Skeeter's crooked idea, but why Luna? !

"Is it hard to understand?" Luna tilted her head, and there was a little more ethereal in her voice, which sounded a bit unfathomable.

"You're used to using some special events to make a fuss, and the Christmas ball is naturally included, and the only thing you can use to make a fuss about is the relationship between you and the know-it-all, and use it to extend it to cheating in the game. "

Luna looked at Harry indifferently. She didn't use Legilimency, but those big silver eyes seemed to completely see through Harry's inner thoughts.

"All of this is actually easy to guess, because... this is the wisdom of mortals."

"I'll go!" Harry suddenly shuddered, looking at Luna with a little fear.

Dear, let’s reveal the secret, it’s not scary~

"It's just a joke, it doesn't look very successful." Luna shrugged indifferently, and then turned to Hermione, "As for the know-it-all, I guessed it a long time ago, you probably won't find Harry as a dance partner. That's why I took the initiative to help you complete it." The whole plan, because... I don't want irrelevant people to interfere with our real plan."

Luna didn't mention who the irrelevant person was, but Hermione also knew in her heart...someone even moved out the Firebolts for the part of exchanging partners, and the jumping up and down was very lively.

"The following things are very simple. There was such a development at the Christmas ball. If you continue to stir up the relationship between the two of you, it will look awkward anyway. So I persuaded my father and brought me into it."

Continuing to speak, Luna shook her head lightly: "As for, you don't understand why my father agreed, it's because you don't really understand his thoughts. It's true that my father cares about me very much, but he hopes more Yes, I am free to do what I like.”

So... your favorite thing to do is gossip with us?

Harry rolled his eyes in his heart, secretly thinking that the genius is on the left and the lunatic is on the right, the genius goes crazy and instantly kills the universe~

"In short, the general situation is like this, but the reason why I came here is that there is one more thing I want to tell you... The current plan is not strong enough." Luna finally concluded, "We still need to involve another person to make things happen. Make it bigger!"

"Who is that going to involve?" Hermione asked puzzled.

"Ludo Bagman."

This time, it was Harry who answered.
