Chapter 546 544. Don’t force me!
Lucius was extremely nervous.
He carefully opened the door of the minister’s office and saw that little Barty, who was already looking tired, was lying on his side on a high-backed chair and fell asleep.
It was obvious that he had dropped something into little Barty’s tea cup.
After returning to the minister’s office, Lucius felt extremely anxious, but he had no regrets about what he had done.
The final showdown on the front line has already begun, although everyone in the British wizarding community says that their master will definitely win the final victory.
But only a very small number of people know that in the recent Battle of the Ministry of Magic, their omnipotent master was killed twice in a row in one day!
And Lucius is one of the insiders.
He didn’t understand Horcruxes, nor why Voldemort couldn’t be killed, nor why Jon was still able to compete with Voldemort after Dumbledore died.
The only thing he understands is that the direction of this war has become more confusing.
Since Voldemort can be killed once or twice, he can be killed more times, and how long can his immortality last?
In the British Ministry of Magic, Lucius is already in a high position, but what if Wu Pingxian really wins in the end?
After getting a personal promise from Jon from Draco, Lucius was willing to take a little risk. As long as he was not directly facing Voldemort, there was still room for redemption even if he was discovered.
Lucius stared at little Barty who seemed to be sleeping soundly, and whispered his name twice to confirm whether he was really asleep.
After seeing that little Barty was breathing evenly and showed no intention of waking up, Lucius took out a small bottle of potion from his pocket.
That was the truth serum he had prepared in advance.
Then he slowly walked to Little Barty’s side, opened the lid of the potion, and was about to hold down Little Barty’s mouth with his other hand!
Little Barty, who seemed to be still sleeping, suddenly grabbed Lucius’ hand!
The strength was so strong that it was like an iron pincer. Lucius was so frightened that he almost dropped the potion in his hand to the ground!
“What do you want to know from me?”
Little Barty’s expression was very cold. He grabbed Lucius’s arm tightly with one hand. The other hand took out the wand at some point and pointed it at Lucius’s forehead!
Lucius was horrified to the extreme. He didn’t understand how he was discovered.
Little Barty’s reaction at this moment was that he was obviously aware of his abnormality, and immediately took advantage of it and caught his little move on the spot!
“I”
Lucius opened his mouth, trying to formulate his words, but in fact, his hand that originally held the bottle of Veritaserum had already been hidden behind his body, and he quietly reached for the wand in his pocket.
However, before his fingers touched the end of the wand, Barty Jr. started waving the wand in his hand.
Lucius’s original hope of getting the wand was instantly shattered. He was immediately deprived of all means of resistance by this silent disarming spell!
Lucius’s face turned completely pale. He looked into Barty’s cold eyes and tried to free his bound hand from his.
“I just want to know how to divide the interests after the war. Although it is wrong, I don’t mean to harm you! Let go, Barty, please, don’t force me!”
“I forced you?”
Not only did little Barty not let go of Lucius’s arm, but he directly grabbed the bottle of Veritaserum!
He looked at Lucius coldly.
“The ready-made things are here, so let me prove what you want to do!”
“Don’t force me!”
“Drink it!”
The bottle of Veritaserum has been forced into Lucius’s mouth!
“I told you not to force me!”
Lucius was struggling, but the liquid in the bottle was poured into his throat without his control at all!
His eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at Little Barty closely. Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he suddenly crushed the ring on his ring finger with the tip of his thumb of the hand held by Little Barty!
The next moment, the extremely powerful effect of the Veritaserum hit his consciousness, causing him to completely fall into a dazed state!
But the crushed ring had quietly played its intended role.
The strictest anti-Apparition magic that had been set up within the British Ministry of Magic was quietly torn open at this second.
“Tell me what you want to know from me!”
Little Barty didn’t notice anything unusual around him at all. He stared at Lucius closely, and a terrible premonition arose in his mind. He could feel that Lucius’s purpose was definitely not simple!
“Looking for something.”
“What are you looking for! Who asked you to look for it!”
“I asked him to find it.”
A sudden voice intervened in this question and answer.
The moment he heard this voice, the hairs all over Little Barty’s body exploded, but at this time, his body could not move at all!
And this person who didn’t know when he appeared in the minister’s office was already in his sight.
Grindelwald!
Little Barty remembers this face clearly! This was a loser that his master never looked down upon!
He didn’t know what Lucius had done to allow Grindelwald to come to Voldemort’s core base camp, but what he knew was that maybe his master could look down on this old man, but no one else could do it except him. We can only look up to him!
Grindelwald didn’t give him any more time to think. He kicked Lucius aside who was still in a coma.
When Jon started planning with him, he had already considered the possibility of his failure, so he gave him an option to jump over the wall in a hurry.
The reason why Grindelwald can appear here is obviously because Lucius’s own plan failed. He triggered this method that can protect himself, but once used, it means there will be no turning back.
However, in fact, from the moment he agreed to Jon, he could no longer look back, but he didn’t know it.
Grindelwald’s method was extremely straightforward. He didn’t even look at the bottle of Veritaserum that still had some liquid remaining, but directly pushed Barty’s upper body down on the desk.
Then, he held down Barty’s head with one hand and controlled the wand with the other hand to extract memories from his mind!
“Oh, it’s exactly what Jon guessed. To be safe, he also made a precaution in your mind.”
