When baby Hercules goes missing, Zeus assembles all of the gods and sends them on a desperate search to find Hercules. The story says that they found him, but could do nothing since he was mortal. Although Hades is in the underworld and busy working, one would think he would listen for any news about Zeus/Hercules. In addition to the plea and the news of the search outcome, wouldn't the fact that Hercules was alive be common-knowledge amongst the gods? If Hades had heard either the outcome or spoken to another god in the 18 years Hercules was mortal, he shouldn't have been surprised to hear that Hercules was alive. Also, being God of the Underworld, he could've checked for Hercules' soul to make sure that he was dead.
