Hogwarts: I'm Cousin Harry

Chapter 347 341. But I regretted it

It was still a dilapidated house on the outskirts of Newport, Wales, but after a holiday, the leaky window was finally blocked.

"What happened to the things I arranged for you to do now?"

Voldemort in goblin form is sitting on the sofa. I don’t know whether he is too short or the sofa is too high. His feet are in the air, and there are several people kneeling at his feet, hiding their faces in hoods. The black robed wizard.

After a holiday trial in the Wizengamot, many Death Eaters captured in Riddle's old house were acquitted. Of course, they all paid a huge price, such as losing their qualifications as members of the Wizengamot, such as Lose your hat as a Ministry of Magic official, or pay some wealth.

But at least they weren't imprisoned in Azkaban.

"Not even close. We still need a little time, Master."

One of the black-robed wizards replied bravely.

"Really? Is it really just a little closer?"

Voldemort's cold voice sounded, like the biting wind of the twelfth lunar month, chilling the heart.

"That's not what I heard."

"Master, I am guilty!"

The latter immediately started wailing after hearing this, but soon, he didn't even have the strength to wailing anymore.

What greeted him was a dark green light.

'Cruciatus'

"I hate cheating, it makes me feel like a fool."

"You think you can deceive your great master?"

Voldemort looked at the person being tortured with disgust and released his hand holding the wand. However, the wand was still hanging in the air and was still releasing the magic with the title of "the cruelest punishment". The other black-robed wizards around him were shocked by this scene. Trembling with fear.

"You can't enter the Auror headquarters and become the director of the Auror office. I can tolerate this. Even if that old guy Dumbledore doesn't intervene, he can't let you sneak in. You threw away the Wizengamot in order to survive. Even though I have the right to manage, I can also be generous and let things go.”

"But now you can't even keep your seat in the Office for the Prohibition of Abuse of Magic."

"Tell me, what do you have to lose?"

The largest authority in the Ministry of Magic besides the Minister of Magic is the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, which is divided into three major sections: the Office for the Prohibition of the Abuse of Magic, the Auror Command (Auror Office), and the Wizengamot Management Agency.

Among them, the Wizengamot has a transcendent status. As the predecessor of the Ministry of Magic, its members are not limited to one country and have great influence. In theory, the chief wizard of the Wizengamot is on an equal footing with England's Minister of Magic.

The remaining departments, whether it is the Office for the Abuse of Magic or the Auror Command (Auror Office), are the real authorities.

In theory, controlling these two agencies is more useful than all other departments combined (the Ministry of Magic also has a special department-the Department of Mysteries, which is the top secret agency of the Ministry of Magic, but it is not a power agency).

In fact, it is putting it mildly to say that it cannot even keep its position as the Office for the Prohibition of Abuse of Magic. Currently, the only department that the Death Eaters have complete control over is the Broomstick Management and Control Bureau under the Department of Magical Transport in the Ministry of Magic.

The rest are only at the level of two or three kittens and puppies, such as August Rookwood, one of the Death Eaters. Although he works in the Department of Mysteries, he is just an ordinary temporary employee. I got in through Lucius's relationship, and I am currently mainly responsible for the cleaning work outside the Department of Mysteries.

The main reason to blame is that the Wizengamot was too cunning this time, and the Death Eaters were too timid. They were really willing to do anything to survive.

There's no way. Who made all the hard-core Death Eaters locked up in Azkaban?

"The Gargson family is behind everything!"

"Gageson? A name I've never heard of."

Voldemort found no memory of this family.

Strictly speaking, this family is not even pure blood. They have only joined the wizarding privileged class in recent years. It would be strange for Voldemort to have an impression.

"Master, the Gargson family is a subsidiary family of the Carlo family."

Avery reminded quietly, standing next to Voldemort.

He was originally treated with the Cruciatus Curse as soon as he appeared on the scene, but now he not only escaped the sanctions of the Ministry of Magic, but also became a "popular man" around Voldemort as a blessing in disguise.

"Carlo?"

Voldemort searched the memory of this family in his mind: "Is it the family of the Amycus brothers and sisters?"

"Yes, Master." Avery explained to Voldemort: "The current head of the Carrow family, Richmond Carrow, is the nephew of the Amycus brothers and sisters."

"The recent commotions are all due to his handiwork. It is said that he now has many followers."

"Hmph" Voldemort showed a trace of contempt on his face: "Wait until I release the brothers and sisters from Azkaban and let them handle their own household affairs."

Hearing what he said, the Death Eaters lying on the ground shivered unconsciously.

Everyone will be happy if they agree to join the Death Eaters. If they don't agree, then change the head of the family.

"Master, the traitor Karkaroff found me recently."

One of the Death Eaters kneeling on the ground suddenly said.

"What is he looking for with you?"

Voldemort waved his hand and recalled his wand, and the Death Eater was twitching all over from being tortured.

"Karkaroff he said"

"what did he say?"

"Relax, Stacha, I won't punish you for what others say."

"He said you were lying."

"Say you are a thief who stole power."

The Death Eater looked at Voldemort and said cautiously.

'Boom'

The newly repaired glass was now shattered, the glass pieces were scattered on the floor, and the cold wind blew in as if it was free of charge.

"It seems that our former companion not only abandoned his master, but now he has even betrayed him."

Voldemort's tiny eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Then he changed the subject and asked the Death Eater: "What about you? What do you think?"

"Of course you are our great master, that is absolutely true."

The Death Eater said fearfully.

"is it?"

Voldemort walked up to the Death Eater. Although he was only as tall as a goblin, he was so frightened that he trembled all over.

"But how did I find out that you didn't think so in your heart."

"you are lying!"

He shouted loudly, making the Death Eaters around him even more frightened.

"You think so too! Don't try to trick me!"

Almost every powerful wizard is a master of Legilimency, such as Dumbledore, Snape, and Voldemort.

Voldemort then pointed his wand at the Death Eater.

"Master, you said that you will not punish me for what others say."

Pleading sounds continued to echo in the room.

"Yes, I did."

Voldemort smiled cruelly: "But I regretted it."

Dark green light bloomed in the dilapidated room.

A lifeless body was left behind.
