Brian sat by the lake, quietly watching the sparkling water.

The students were busy taking the exam, and the lake was very quiet. A giant squid stretched his tentacles lazily in the depths, as if he was basking in the sun.

There was a sound of laughter and talking from afar. It was the warriors and their relatives who were visiting Hogwarts and gradually walked away.

Brian took out the map of the living spots and checked the names of the people on it. At this time, except for the warriors, the students were busy with the exams, and the professors were busy invigilating the exams. Only a few ghosts floated around boredly in the castle.

Nothing unusual was found, and Brian put the map of the living spots aside and lay down on the lawn.

As time passed, a noisy sound came from the other side of the venue. It was senior students who were conducting the magical animal protection class exam. Hagrid's voice was particularly loud, and he was asking students to fiddle with some magical animals covered with hard thorns, like sea urchins.

Brian stood up and looked at it for a while. The senior students were busy fiddling with them. From time to time, someone exclaimed because they were pierced. The worst thing was that a bad guy was jumped onto his head by the "sea urchin" and sat down in a panic and fell into a basin filled with sea urchin. The scene was in chaos.

Soon, the farce-like exam ended and the venue returned to peace.

Brian picked up the map of the living spots and took out a book and read it.

Midway through, several more waves of people passed by, and he also saw Harry and Cedric and their relatives walking along the lawn by the lake and greeting Brian.

As the sky gradually darkened, Brian finally saw the information he wanted to see on the Living Points map.

He packed up his things and walked towards Quidditch Stadium. There were several people guarding the door here to prevent Warriors from slipping in early. Brian waited in the shade of the tree next to him and saw Moody limping over, holding the wooden box containing the strong three cups in his hand, and walked into the stadium.

Instead of following in, Brian turned around and walked towards the castle, leaning invisibly against a corridor.

He didn't wait long, and soon he heard Moody's "clicking" footsteps. Brian played with the wand in his hand, making himself silent, and used brain closure technique to absorb all his thoughts.

Facing a legendary Auror who has experienced many battles, it is necessary to be cautious no matter how cautious it is.

As supper time approached, no one was found in the corridor. Moody slowly passed by Bryan. The demonic eye was spinning around, but he could not see through Bryan's invisibility.

Knowing the ability of the magic eye, Brian will naturally be prepared. Not to mention that his current level of the magic body curse has reached the master level, he also specially made an alchemy item to isolate the magic detection.

"Damn it!" Brian was chanting a spell in his heart, without shouting. Even with Moody's vigilance, he did not expect that an attack would suddenly appear around him.

The red spark hit Moody's forehead. When he closed his eyes, he instantly fell into a coma.

Brian casts a magical spell on him and drags him to a remote classroom.

"Then, let me see what arrangements you have." Brian looked at Moody in a coma with a smile, and the blue demonic eye was still spinning around.

"Snap God and seek thoughts." Brian pointed at Moody's head with his magic wand and chanted a spell gently.

Although his current level of spiritual engraving and chanting cannot be as free as his mind reading skills, it is still very easy to recite a mantra to view other people's memories. Even if Moody can brain closure, he cannot resist Brian's direct and rough chanting mantra.

Brian searched Moody's memory and he had to know the plans of Voldemort and Crouch Jr. If they were designing any conspiracy, Brian would always have to know.

"He was indeed controlled by Voldemort with the Soul-Snatching Curse. Voldemort had been staying at Crouch's house before, and Crouch was there..." Brian searched these memories, "No problem. Crouch was afraid of me, so he did not come to Hogwarts to take risks in person, but pretended to be Mr. Crouch to supervise the progress of the Triumph..."

"This time, Moody turned the Goblet of Fire into a door key. He will patrol outside the maze wall, help drive away some obstacles and knock out other warriors..." Brian frowned, "It seems that there is no problem?"

"No, he didn't make any other preparations?" Brian searched Moody's memory, "Well? He didn't recite the soul-taking curse to other warriors? Once other teams won the first place..."

"And, how should they guard against me?" Brian thought, "Although there is an unbreakable oath, Voldemort will always guard against me... So, the specific arrangements will be with Crouch Jr.?"

Brian withdrew from the state of taking the gods and pondered: "It seems that Moody has been abandoned by them. At that time, Dumbledore will catch him and ask him to give me something out, and cause me some trouble..."

"Although Dumbledore will know about this sooner or later, it's better for me to tell it out myself..."

"Then..." Brian pointed at Moody with his wand, "All forgetfulness is gone!"

He modified Moody's memory and made his impression of Brian fade. Later, in Moody's eyes, Brian was just a very talented student.

After doing all this, Brian awakened Moody and watched him walk out of the classroom in a daze, return to the corridor before, and walk towards the auditorium. Soon, he recovered from his awakening, his magic eyes were spinning around, his expression was alert and serious.

Brian smiled and walked slowly into the auditorium.

At this time, the auditorium was gradually filled with people. The Fleys sat next to the Slytherin table and waved to Brian.

In the teacher's seat, all the professors and referees were already sitting there, Moody didn't look anything unusual, and Dumbledore kept smiling.

Ludo Bagman looked very happy, and the Minister of Magic Connelly Forge also came, and he sat next to Ms. Maxim, with a tense face and said nothing. Ms. Maxim buried her head, her eyes looked a little red, and Hagrid, who was sitting at the other end of the table, always looked to her.

Brian focused on Mr. Crouch, who was dressed in a meticulous black suit, his hair and beard were neatly maintained, but he looked thick in dark circles and a pale face.

The dinner began, and the food was much more abundant than usual, but the warriors seemed a little restless and didn't eat much.

When the magical ceiling turned from blue to dark purple, Dumbledore stood up and everyone in the auditorium calmed down.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in five minutes, I will invite you to Quidditch Stadium to watch the last event of the Triumph," Dumbledore said. "Now, ask the Warriors and Mr. Bagman to the stadium."

The warriors stood up and left the seat, and all the students were applauding them.

"Good luck, Brian." Daphne put her hands crossed and her fingers tightly.

"Come on!" Several friends gave him a thumbs up.

The Warriors walked out of the auditorium together and slowly walked down the steps. Bagman asked enthusiastically, "How is it, do you feel okay?" He looked at Brian, Cedric and Harry with a gaze.

"It's pretty good," Harry said.

"Okay, you know..." Bagman said in a low voice, "Well, just one person needs to pick up the Goblet of Fire first, and you will win, right? Those with strong strength can completely block the Warriors of other teams and buy time for a teammate..."

"What's wrong?" Cedric asked in confusion.

"Haha, nothing, I'm just telling you the rules." Bagman said, "Well, this has nothing to do with the final best warrior selection...it's based on your overall performance in the game." He added with a hint, and then led the way forward.

Brian looked at Bagman's back and raised his eyebrows. He felt that Bagman was probably betting on: Hogwarts Warriors won the championship, Harry was the first to win the Goblet of Fire... Such a bet.

Otherwise, it would probably be difficult for him to pay off the debt he owed during the World Cup.

Brian shook his head and ignored Bagman.

He observed the warriors around him, guessing who was controlled by Crouch Jr.

"Or it's possible for Cedric." Brian glanced at Cedric with his lips tightly pursed.

They walked into Quidditch Stadium, where a twenty-foot-high hedge surrounded the edge of the field, and the gap in front was the entrance to the maze. The passage inside was dark and looked a little scary.

Five minutes later, hundreds of students sat in a row, and were noisy and excited.

Professor Hager, Moody, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitvie walked into the court and walked towards them, wearing hats decorated with glittering red stars. They will patrol outside the maze.

"If you encounter difficulties and want to get rescue, you can fire red sparks into the sky. They will have someone to help you, do you understand?" Bagman said.

The Warriors nodded together and divided into three teams to stand aside.

The referees also entered the court, and they sat in the front of the stands, talking to each other, and could clearly hear it. Brian noticed that Mr. Crouch was chatting with Fudge, which seemed very normal.

"To be honest, this game is really good. If it weren't for the Prophet Daily that always caused me trouble..." Fuji sighed.

"I just want it to end soon, I have a lot of work to deal with..." Mr. Crouch was a little impatient. His eyes widened, and he looked straight at the huge maze in front of him, with a very weird expression.

"Although I asked Weatherby to handle most of the documents,..." he said to Fudge.

Brian raised his head suddenly, staring at Mr. Crouch without listening to what happened next.

"He called Percy Weasley the wrong name..." Brian suddenly realized, "He is really Mr. Crouch!"

So where is Batty Crouch Jr. now?
