Chapter 403 Camp

Nian Gao Pei Ma Tuan
The old boot door key was thrown carelessly into a large box where many used door keys were already piled.
After Mr. Weasley briefly chatted with the two strangely dressed wizards, everyone headed to the predetermined camp according to the records on the parchment.
Shrouded in thick fog, they passed through an uninhabited swamp. After about 10 minutes of journey, the fog here became lighter and the scenery in front of them gradually became clearer.
Here is a gentle slope, with a large number of tents of various kinds densely planted on it, extending to the woods at the end of the sight in the distance, like a mushroom field that sprouts up after the rain.
There was a stone house in front of them, which should be the place where the Muggle administrator lived. They bid farewell to Diggory and his son and came to the stone house.
The administrator, Mr. Roberts, was standing here looking at the tents, with a look of confusion on his face.
This also makes sense.
He has been working here for many years, but he has never experienced so many people gathering at the same time, even if it is the end of summer, which is more suitable for camping.
After saying hello, Mr. Roberts looked at the registration form posted on the door, pointed in the direction of the woods and said: "Is your location there, near the woods, only for one night?"
"Yes," Mr. Weasley replied.
According to the plan, the Ministry of Magic had reserved one day and one night for the finals, which was supposed to be enough.Of course, based on past experience, it is not impossible for the competition to last longer. As for whether the Ministry of Magic has an emergency plan for this special situation, it is not something Glenn and Mr. Weasley need to consider.
When paying, although he was very interested in Muggle things, Mr. Weasley, as a wizard, was still confused by the various Muggle bills. Fortunately, Harry helped to prevent Mr. Roberts from paying. Too suspicious.
Despite this, he still asked a few more questions out of curiosity.
While the two were talking, a Ministry of Magic staff member wearing bloomers apparated and appeared next to everyone with a "pop" sound.
Mr. Roberts was startled, but fortunately the man seemed to have been prepared. He skillfully drew out his wand and easily used an Oblivion Charm.
After getting the camp plan, everyone walked towards the forest.The Ministry of Magic staff member who had just appeared and looked quite tired walked with them for a while, complained a few words about the trouble the administrator and Ludo Bagman had caused them, and then disapparated and left again.
Everyone passed through two rows of long tents. There was only a thin layer of fog left, which basically had no effect on the sight. However, the air was still a little damp and the ground was a little muddy, so it was not easy to walk.
Along the way, most of the tents were quite normal, no different from ordinary Muggle tents. After all, according to the principle of confidentiality, it was best to follow Muggle habits.
Of course, some people don't know much about Muggles, so they come up with some superfluous things like chimneys, bell ropes or weather vanes.
In addition, there are a few pure-blood families who love to show off, almost as if they have moved their entire estate here.
"It's always like this. When everyone gets together, they can't help but want to show off." Seeing them pointing at the exaggeratedly exquisite tents, Mr. Weasley explained with a smile, "Ah, Here we are, look, this is our camp.”
He seemed to be in high spirits and told everyone not to use magic, but to set up the tent manually like a Muggle.
Hermione and Harry were the only two people in the group who had lived with Muggles, but Harry had never been camping, Hermione was a girl, and Wei was always unhelpful and got extremely excited when using tools. Mr. Sly, the whole process took a lot of time.
Fortunately, Glenn experienced many team-building activities in his previous life as a social animal, including several wild camping experiences.Relying on his slightly vague memory, everyone finally managed to straighten the two tents.
After being toured inside and out, Glenn and the trio were sent off to fetch water from the taps on the other side of the camp, while Mr. Weasley stayed behind to light the fire.
Ron thought he could take a rest, but resisted and said: "We obviously have a kitchen and a stove, why do we still-"
"Safety regulations for Muggles, Ron!" Before he could finish speaking, Wei said
Mr. Sly interrupted, "On Muggle territory, you have to follow their habits. When Muggles camp, they all light fires outdoors. I have seen it."
He spoke righteously, but he still couldn't hide the eagerness in his eyes.It can be seen that he is quite interested in this Muggle lifestyle.
After a whole morning of hard work, the fog dissipated and the sun had risen. The wizards who had come a day earlier were getting up one after another, and the whole camp became lively.
Not only Hermione and Harry, but also Ron had almost never experienced such a scene. They stopped and looked around with interest——
A little boy crying "You crushed the bug!", a middle-aged witch from the Salem Witches' Society, an African wizard roasting hare, a gathering place for fans of the Irish and Bulgarian teams, etc...
They also met many Hogwarts classmates - Seamus and Dean of Gryffindor, as well as Ravenclaw's supporting character Marcus and others.
And, of course, autumn.
She was sitting at the door of the tent, playing with an Irish support hat decorated with shamrocks out of boredom. When she saw Glenn passing by, she immediately smiled and waved vigorously.
After a few words of greeting, Qiu turned back and shouted towards the tent: "Dad, Mom! I'll accompany Hermione and the others to fetch water, and then go to their camp for a walk!"
Her parents heard the sound and came out of the tent.Seeing Glenn standing next to her, Mrs. Zhang had a look of understanding on her face.
As a mother, her thoughts were always delicate. Although Qiu said that she was with Hermione, she could tell at a glance that her daughter was not interested in drinking.
Mr. Zhang, his daughter, wanted to speak, but was stopped by his wife.
"Go and be safe." She asked softly, then looked at Glenn, "There are many people here, so I need you to take good care of Qiu, Glenn."
After hearing what she said, Glenn blushed and quickly agreed.
"Don't worry, Mom!" Qiu smiled and waved goodbye to her parents, "See you in the audience!"
Originally, their family could only buy tickets for ordinary second-class seats. They were located in the middle of the auditorium and the view was not very good. However, with the help of the Ollivander family's connections, they also bought first-class tickets for three top-level boxes. ticket.
Of course, the help Glenn provided was just a personal connection, and the tickets were paid by themselves.
For Chinese families who are good at saving money, although the price of first-class tickets is high, there is no problem if they occasionally spend a lot of money once or twice.
