Chapter 28 - Chapter 27: Visitor from the Ministry?? 3.

Liam and burton started heading back to the castle, some students were rushing to the stadium to watch the match. The students from Gryffindor house and Slytherin House were also excited to see who would win.

"No matter who wins. Slytherin is going to beat them anyway." Said a Slytherin boy with a smug smile.

A Gryffindor boy heard this statement and started laughing, "Don't get ahead of yourself. Slytherins should worry if they will even make it to the finals. Don't forget that the next match is Gryffindor against Slytherin."

Liam and Mr. Burton were just walking past these group of young wizards, Burton looked at them and started laughing.

"Hogwarts will never change, the gryffindors and the slytherins are still at each other's neck. This bring back memories."

Liam was not interested in the quarrel of these young wizards he wanted to know what Burton knew about the white lady. He had a long list of question he wanted answered and Burton had one of the answers.

"Mr. Burton wouldn't you want to roam around a little bit more. The match is yet to start. We still have time."

Liam wanted more time with Burton so he could talk with more, he trusted his skills in communication enough that he could get some information out.

A loud announcement could be heard from the stadium, "Welcome to the Quidditch matches of Hogwarts, today we will witness the match between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw…"

"I am afraid the match has already started"

'Could my luck get any worse, I also promised Michael that we will watch the match together.'

"Here to see the quidditch match… Should have told me you were coming."

Both Liam and Burton looked back to see who had said this, it was Quirrell who spoke just now. Liam very much wanted to avoid meeting him, but what he could do now.

"Quirrell how have you been, I heard about what happened to you. Who would have thought that the trauma you suffered would make you such a coward." Burton said to quirrell laughingly.

"Mr. Gremory, you can go now I will accompany Mr. Burton." Quirrell giggled, "He is a very old friend of mine. Go now enjoy the matches."

"If you say so professor." Liam replied.

Burton stopped Liam, "Wait a second Liam." He reached out to his pocket and took out a piece of paper which had been folded four times. "Take this, consider this as a gift from me for showing me around. We had a lovely chat I hoped we could talk more. You can go now, we'll meet again soon."

Liam took the paper form Burton's hand wondering what was written on the paper.

"Thank you. Mr. Burton." He was going to open the paper to see what was written but he decided to see what was written on the paper later and left.

After Liam left Quirrell changed the way he talked, "What are you doing here Burton? The last time we met you weren't so much keen to come to Hogwarts. What changed your mind, I though you hated Dumbledore."

Burton's way of speaking also changed, "I was sent by the Ministry for an investigation." He spoke as he didn't want to talk anything more with Quirrell.

"I remember, once you said that you would rather die than come back to Hogwarts yet you are here." Quirrell mocked Burton.

"I came to Hogwarts because of a complaint and to find a problem in Hogwarts so that I can trouble Dumbledore, you think I would get such an opportunity again." Burton showed an evil smile.

"The people from the Ministry of Magic are rotten to the core, come with me. The quidditch match has started. Your matters can wait till after the match."

Burton looked offended, "Me and rotten, look at you acting so high and might. Just one word from me to Dumbledore can get you into trouble. How would Dumbledore's reaction be after hearing that one of his professors was looking the dark arts"

Quirrell showed a very angry face, 'How did he get to know this? I was sure that no one knew. This burton's intelligence circle has become very strong.' "Don't even get me started, I know about your corruptions as well. How will the ministry act? I hear they don't spare anyone like you. One word and you will be off to Azkaban for life."

Burton smiled, "Jokes.. Quirrell these are just jokes I wouldn't really do such a thing. Let's hurry or the best seats will all be taken by the others.

'There's something off about him.' Voldemort said to Quirrell in his mind.

'My lord what seems to be the problem? I can assure you nothing would be found out. I didn't leave any traces behind. No one will know it was me behind the troll incident.' Quirrel replied to Voldemort in his mind.

'Fool that's not something I am worried about, I sense a spell from him a 'dark spell'. I am sure this person is hiding something. Hmm… its… it's a concealment spell Ahha.. I see now, this is a spell used to hide the use of poly-juice potion. Your friend here isn't your friend he is someone else. Who would have thought that this spell is known by someone else other than me.'

'My lord what should I do then. Should I take him somewhere and interrogate him?'

Voldemort fell into deep thought, 'No we mustn't act on impulses, he can be anyone. If I would have even a glass of unicorn blood we could have captured him, but we currently don't know his identity nor his strength. So not acting on it is the best option. Just act normal when I regain my power I shall investigate this matter myself.'

'As you wish my lord.'
