"Ginny, are you okay?" "Are you feeling unwell anywhere?" The three Weasley brothers who were at school saw Ginny lying on the bed and hurried forward to ask about her condition. After a long while, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Ginny was fine.

"Why did you faint in the bathroom alone? Where's Harry?" Ron asked the question in his mind at this time.

"Harry? I passed out in the bathroom right after I entered the Three Broomsticks, and was only carried out just now. How would I know where Harry went?" Ginny answered in confusion. "Isn't he with you?"

"No." Ron's eyes showed fear. "You said you wanted to give Harry a gift after you came out of the bathroom, so I left with Ryan, Hermione and the others. If you didn't come out after entering the bathroom, then who was Ginny who pulled Harry and said she wanted to give him a surprise?"

"Alastor, I need your help. We just counted the students returning to school and found that Harry is missing. We have to find him now." Dumbledore's voice came from the door.

"I've already guessed it, and that person took Harry away disguised as Miss Ginny." Moody turned his head and looked at Dumbledore. "The only thing I don't understand is why the guy hiding in the shadows also took Ryan and Hermione away."

"I guess it might be to divert attention, because the Aurors just rescued Madam Rosmerta's nephew from the wine cellar of the Three Broomsticks. According to his description, he was imprisoned in a large box after being attacked this summer. His kidnappers would pull out some hair from his head every once in a while. It was not until today that he was fed a potion and hidden in an empty wine barrel. The only reason he survived was because the man said before he left that he didn't want the pure blood to bleed anymore.

"It seems that he has also been replaced. The guy who sneaked in has been lurking under our noses for more than one semester and has never been discovered." Dumbledore said word by word. Ron and the others could feel Dumbledore's anger at this time.

"It should be this person who threw the note into the Goblet of Fire." Moody continued. "For this kind of activity, we always order drinks from the Three Broomsticks, and they often deliver the goods to our door after the school curfew at night. That person happened to be able to sneak into the castle as a cargo escort. With his magic level of confusing the Goblet of Fire, he could easily use the Imperius Curse to control the house-elves who were inspecting the goods, and then use more than ten minutes to go up to the hall, throw the note, and then go back. Most wizards in the UK graduated from Hogwarts, so it is not difficult for these wizards to quickly complete such an operation if they are familiar with the terrain."

Everyone present agreed with Moody's reasoning, but as the saying goes, good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes alone. Just as the school hospital fell into silence, Cedric rushed in and said in panic, "Professor, it's bad. Madam Pomfrey was knocked unconscious outside Hogsmeade, and the girl is missing. But the strange thing is that after we counted the number of people, we found that no one knew the girl."

"Damn it." Even Professor Dumbledore, who had seemed calm just now, stood up. "Inform the Ministry of Magic immediately about the missing student, and mobilize all the people who can to look for him. I want to see who is behind this."

Just before everyone in Hogwarts was busy looking for the three missing students, Harry was still walking away from the three broomsticks with a happy face, because Ginny said she wanted to give him a special gift, and she didn't want others to see her when she gave the gift.

Harry didn't suspect anything, because Ginny was always shy in front of him, even after they started dating. He just regarded Ginny's current behavior as his girlfriend's shyness.

After avoiding the sight of students and tourists coming and going on the street and arriving at the woods behind the Three Broomsticks, Ginny took out a gift box wrapped in beautifully wrapped paper from her pocket.

As we all know, lovers are always willing to find some places with not very bright light so that shyness can be quietly covered and those love words can be easily revealed. Of course, this may also be related to the fact that people naturally feel that dimly lit places can hide themselves and do things that are not convenient to do in public. However, Harry was obviously unlucky today. After opening the wrapping paper of the gift box, he was kidnapped in the dim bushes by a cross-dressing man who drank the Polyjuice Potion with an illegal portkey disguised as a gift.

After confirming that Harry was successfully sent away, this "Ginny" drank another mouthful of Polyjuice Potion and turned into a country witch who came to town to purchase more than a month ago. She then used her wand to modify her clothes to pretend to be a senior Hufflepuff girl. Finally, after conjuring a mirror to confirm that there were no flaws, she walked directly towards the Three Broomsticks Inn, muttering to herself.

"Those lowly creatures actually dared to make demands to the great master. They should just crawl at the master's feet obediently. But it's good this way. I can kill those mudbloods who cover up the glory of purebloods and let all mudbloods know that they are not worthy of touching the power of magic." After saying this, the handsome face suddenly turned ferocious.

Soon he adjusted his expression and cast an Imperius Curse and a Curse on himself, because he knew that only in this way could he act more realistically. Everything that happened next was in his plan. After teleporting Ryan and Hermione, he used this method to deceive Moody who was hastily checking himself. Then he knocked Madam Pomfrey unconscious in a place with few people outside the town and used Apparition to return to his master.

When he came to the clearing at the edge of the forest, the sound of the waves and the smell of the sea in the distance made him relax a lot. He knew that he had arrived at the scheduled island. In front of him, Harry was tied to a tree stump.

In a few seconds, the effect of the Polyjuice Potion ended. A man with pale skin, a few freckles, and messy light yellow hair, who was between middle-aged and young, stood there wearing a Hogwarts girl's school uniform that didn't fit him well. If Professor Dumbledore was here, he would recognize this man as Barty Crouch Jr., who was sent to Azkaban by his father.

"Huff," Little Batty panted. Although he had prepared for the curse in advance, it still had some side effects after it was lifted, especially for someone like him who had been imprisoned at home for a long time and had a very weak body. He was already out of breath after just completing a long-distance move.

However, there was a somewhat frightening smile on his face, because he successfully kidnapped Harry under the heavy surveillance of the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore. In addition, he also kidnapped two Mudbloods who had their dirty hands on the Order of Merlin.

The Ministry of Magic must be corrupt to be able to give the Order of Merlin to a mudblood. He shook his head to get rid of this unpleasant fact, and his loyalty to his master increased a little. Thanks to his master's wise planning, he was able to complete this seemingly impossible task.

Just as he thought of this, his eyes suddenly froze, and then an excited look appeared in his eyes.

Although it was dark, Little Batty saw a short man walking towards him from the darkness, wearing a hooded cloak that covered his face. In his arms was his master, who was temporarily in a baby state.

As he approached, little Barty found that his master was looking at him with approval, which made him feel extremely excited, as if a warm current flowed through his body.

Because that adult actually came to pick him up in person!
