Although Sherlock did not mention the question of Batty, he told Kingsley about the traction hand.
“I connected the traction hand to one of the wizards who escaped, but the location was only revealed for a moment and the contact was disconnected. Someone among them should have discovered the problem. The last location was in a small town in the north of Derbyshire. You can send someone to investigate now, but there is a high probability that nothing will be discovered.”
Kingsley was naturally very concerned about Sherlock’s words. He immediately went out and ordered two Aurors who could directly move to Derbyshire to investigate the situation, and then returned to the interrogation room.
“Where did you get the thing that pulls your hand?” he asked frowned.
Sherlock didn’t tell the truth, so he spread his hands and made an excuse.
“I bought it from an unknown wizard in the Overturn Alley. You have to hide it from me. I don’t want to have multiple charges of reselling black magic items on my head.”
Kingsley nodded.
“Even if you are discovered, it’s nothing. You use black magic items to help the Ministry of Magic do serious things, and no one will hold you accountable.”
“After all, you are a civil servant, and your words are different.”
After that, Kingsley made a few brief records for them, and after applying to the above, he released Sherlock and Shilk out of the Ministry of Magic.
After coming out of the Ministry of Magic, Sherlock’s face, which was originally relaxed, gradually became gloomy.
Hilk noticed his changes.
“What accident happened?”
Sherlock frowned.
“The reason why the traction hand is included in the black magic item is not only because the materials it makes require human hands, but the traction magic attached to this thing is almost impossible to be discovered. But now the contact is broken, which means that someone has discovered the problem with Bati at a glance.”
“Being able to have such eyesight means that he has recovered some of his strength.” He murmured to himself.
Then he turned to look at Shilk.
“You help me report my safety to Weasley’s house, just say I’m fine, I’m going to Hogwarts now.”
Shilk nodded and moved away using the phantom.
Sherlock did not stay in place for too long after she left, and came directly to Hogsmeade and returned to Hogwarts Castle along Hogsmeade.
There is still one week left to study, and the castle is very deserted. He walked up the stairs and went straight to the stone monster on the third floor.
“Is Professor Dumbledore in the office now?”
The stone monster did not speak, but was silent for a moment, as if asking the person in the office.
In a few secondsAfter the clock, it jumped aside, revealing a way forward for Sherlock.
Sherlock walked all the way down the spiral staircase and arrived at the eighth floor and pushed open the door to Dumbledore’s office.
Dumbledore was holding a letter at this time, looking at the contents of the letter with a serious expression. It was not until Sherlock came in that his face relaxed.
“Wow, I just got the news that an accident happened in the Quidditch World Cup. I was thinking about whether you would come to me today, but now you are here.”
Sherlock was not as relaxed as he showed. He restrained the expression on his face, making it impossible to see his thoughts at the moment, and sat opposite Dumbledore.
“I saw Barty Crouch Jr. in the audience.”
Sherlock’s words made Dumbledore’s face solemn. He put down the letter in his hand and signaled that Sherlock would continue.
“You should know that I mastered a strange magic from what my mother left. I used this magic to find Baddy Crouch in the finals in the audience. He was surrounded by the Crouch’s house elf Shining with him.”
They are all smart people, and there is no need for extra explanation. Just by emphasizing this matter like this, Dumbledore can hear the problem.
“Barty knew his son was still alive and kept hiding him.” Dumbledore said in a deep voice.
“And Batty was in a very wrong state. He seemed to be controlled by Old Batty, and the house elf was always watching him.”
“When I went back to the past, I had a grudge between him and I always felt that it was not easy for him to watch the World Cup final. I followed him after the game.”
“The timing of that chaos was clever. Someone was helping Batty create a chance to escape. He finally succeeded, using a black magic mark on the sky and a round with three people wearing masks.”
Dumbledore spoke softly.
“Death Eaters.”
“Yes, Death Eaters, they have tattoos with the black demon marks on them, and those masks are the Death Eaters who disappeared after the Black Demon disappeared and were not liquidated by the Ministry of Magic.”
“They wanted to take Batii with him, so I stopped them, and Batii recognized me and said my mother’s name.”
