Chapter 187 The World Cup and the Turmoil
·
Nan Shan Dou Xi
Quidditch World Cup Stadium.
Before entering the arena, you can hear laughter, shouts, and intermittent singing from inside.
"It is indeed the top event in the wizarding world."
I bought a pair of panoramic binoculars from a peddler. This is a multifunctional binoculars that can replay images, slow motion, and detect the tactical formation used by the team.
John played with it curiously. His ticket was a first-class ticket, in the top box.
People here are either Ministry of Magic officials or rich and powerful.
Hagrid stood by with excitement on his face.
The purple and gilt seat was a little too small for Hagrid, who wanted to stand up, but John helped him make it bigger.
The crowd below rushed in like ants, and Daphne ran over and sat beside John.
Mrs. Greengrass glanced and said nothing, but Mr. Greengrass was a little unhappy.
Hagrid was so nervous all of a sudden that he almost broke the panoramic binoculars.
John looked and saw Mrs. Maxime, surrounded by students in Beauxbaton's school uniform.
You can also see the silver-haired heads of Fleur and her sister Gabriel, who are not in the box, but below in the all-blue silk school uniform.
Hagrid looked straight at Madam Maxime, John looked at Hagrid, and then at Madam Maxime.
Hagrid murmured, "She's beautiful."
"puff--"
Seeing him look like an old tree in spring, John's jaw dropped in shock.
When the Malfoy family arrived, the father and son looked like they were carved out of a mold. Beside Lucius was her wife, Narcissa, a beautiful woman.
In addition to them, there is a house-elf who looks similar to Dobby who is particularly eye-catching. It has a tea towel for wiping the tea set around its body and buries its face in its hands.
John looked over, his expression moved slightly.
He saw what was hiding next to the elf.
It should be the Invisibility Cloak, John stared over there, the person in the Invisibility Cloak seemed to be aware of it, and he looked over.
John turned his head, pretending not to see.
On the right side of the top box, at an almost parallel position, there is a huge blackboard.
Gold words flashed on it, as if an invisible hand was writing on the blackboard.
It was the Quidditch World Cup advertising area, and the blackboard was big enough for everyone to see what was written.
"Cornflower: A broomstick for the whole family that's safe, reliable, and has a built-in anti-theft buzzer."
"Mrs. Skoll's All-Purpose Miracle Stain Remover: Removes Stains With Ease!"
"Fengya Wizard Clothes..."
"Silver Hand Johnny Store: Provide the most exquisite and comprehensive props service for wizards."
"Silver Hand Publishing House: We do not produce knowledge, we are just porters of knowledge. We hope that every outstanding article can light up the magic world."
"Silver Hand Angel Investment: Do you want my Galleon? Take whatever you want! Bring your smart ideas and Silver Hand will guide you!"
"Silver Hand Wine Cellar: Magic 1993, delivering delicious food to every family."
"Silver hand..."
Looking at the silver-handed words that kept popping up, John carefully calculated that his business territory had already covered so much.
Hagrid smacked his mouth and said roughly, "Silverhand Wine Cellar, that's the darling of the bar. I drank a bottle last time, and it's much better than beer."
Harry noticed the house-elf and almost thought it was Dobby.
"More than?"
"Did you call me Dobby?" The elf opened some fingers, and his voice was very high-pitched.
Harry didn't quite understand the difference between male and female elves, but he guessed it was a woman.
He quickly said sorry and admitted his mistake, but the house elf unexpectedly knew Dobby.
"My name is Winky."
Winky notices the scar on Harry's head, and she screams the same way Dobby saw Harry.
"You must be Harry Potter!"
"Yes." Harry replied.
Winky lowered her hands with a very awed expression on her face.
They were talking about Dobby, and Hermione and Ron got into it.
Winky says Dobby is an anomaly because his demands for pay keep him from getting a job.
House-elves can no more live without jobs than the West can live without Jerusalem.
She also felt that it was not a good thing for Harry to rescue Dobby, which made Hermione very angry. The wizard is a slave house elf.
Shining also said that she is afraid of heights, but she must take care of the location for her master.
Hermione was even more angry. In the education she received, house elves had no human rights.
John just glanced at the situation over there and didn't pay attention.
Percy, entertaining the officials, also came to the box.
He was so busy that he didn't touch the ground, it had nothing to do with his ease of speaking.
Barty Crouch came over to inspect the work, and his eyes looked at where Winky was intentionally or unconsciously.
After a while he left.
Bulgarian wizards arrive, and they speak incomprehensible words, giving Percy a headache.
Ludo Bagman officiating the World Cup, of course, had to ignore the voices of the twins yelling at liars.
Pretending not to hear, Ludo used the loud spell to spread his voice across the pitch.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome! Welcome to the 422nd Quidditch World Cup!"
Before the game starts, the mascot enters the arena to perform.
The first to enter the field was the Bulgarian team.
John sees Bulgaria's mascot, the Veela, all of whom exude charm and dance to enchant some men.
Ron was so indecent that he almost jumped off to find a veela.
If he knew how angry these veela were, he probably wouldn't be able to fall in love.
Immediately after the appearance, is the mascot of the Irish team, that is the Irish leprechaun.
The special effects of their appearance are very cool, turning around the entire stadium and dropping a large piece of gold coins.
John caught one and looked at it, seeing the essence of it at a glance.
"Interesting, this gold coin is similar to transfiguration, it can only exist for a few hours."
Playing with the gold coins in his hand, Ludo has continued to introduce the players of the two parties.
First up was Bulgaria, whose star player was undoubtedly the gifted Seeker, Viktor Krum.
After seeing it, John just wanted to ask, what the hell is this?
The overall strength of the Irish team is balanced, and the star player is the chaser. However, this lineup also has advantages. Compared with Bulgaria, whose core is Krum, it can quickly open up the score.
The game started, and John watched it through the panoramic binoculars.
Noticing Daphne trying to crane her neck to see clearly, John realized she didn't have binoculars.
Handing over his binoculars, John smiled and said, "Here, I can see it."
Daphne blushed slightly, and took the telescope over, feeling sweet in her heart, thinking that it was a shared one.
Hagrid saw that John didn't have it, and wanted to lend him his own.
John shook his head and refused, blinked his eyes, and those eyes turned into vertical pupils, seeing everything clearly.
It is indeed a top-notch event, and the level of excitement is not comparable to that of Hogwarts Quidditch.
Krum's feint that knocked the Irish Seeker down was brilliant.
As John guessed, although the Irish Seeker was not as strong as Krum, his teammates were excellent.
Keep scoring goals in the game.
With every goal scored, the Irish supporters cheered.
The competition intensified.
It seems anxious, but in fact the Bulgarian team has no chance of winning.
Sure enough, the game came to 130:10, with Ireland leading.
The goalkeeper of the Bulgarian team was in a hurry, and a foul made the Irish team free throw.
The mascots of the two sides taunted each other and almost fought.
The Irish team scored again, Klum also saw the situation clearly, and the Bulgarian team had no chance of winning.
Krum spotted the Snitch and sprinted faster.
He wants to end the game, catch the Snitch, and restore dignity to the Bulgarian team.
The Irish Seeker spotted his intentions and gave chase.
The two sides staged a broomstick competition, but it was a pity that Krum was too strong, and the Irish Seeker fell again.
Krum had an extra Golden Snitch in his hand, the game ended, the score was fixed at 170:160, and the Irish team won.
During the chase, Krum was also injured, but he refused to let the doctor clean the wound, and he was with his teammates in a lost state.
Since the Minister of Magic has not yet been selected, the awarding fell to Barty Crouch.
Barty Crouch tried to look as nice as possible, and this was a good chance to get votes.
John saw the twins pulling Ludo Bagman to prevent him from leaving, because they hit the bet just now, and if they were betting on Silver Hand, they could have multiplied it by ten times.
The game is over and John walks out of the court.
The people on the side of the road were still discussing loudly, and the Weasley family discussed it even more fiercely.
Because several of his family are Gryffindor Quidditch.
John's tent was next door, and the noise inside didn't stop until it was almost early morning.
"John, you're working too hard." Hagrid muttered in the tent, sleeping on some hard pillows.
John wasn't sleepy yet.
He calculated how much money he had made in this Quidditch World Cup.
Heinrich kept three meters away from Kim, he had had enough of this guy.
Jin shrugged disapprovingly, and told him with a smile that he would live in the same tent with him, which made his face darken.
In the early hours of the morning, John finished his calculations and his net income exceeded six figures.
As he was about to fall asleep, he heard a noise.
"Ok?"
Going out of the tent to check, John saw a fire light up.
The wizard seemed to run away towards the woods, and behind him, a group of masked wizards huddled tightly, each pointing their wands upwards.
John looked solemn when he saw the family of three floating in the air like puppets.
"make trouble?"
His right hand caressed his face, covered by a silver mask.
With a snap of his fingers, the clothes on his body changed colors, and the emerald green cloak covered his body.
The shoes sprouted wings, and John rose like a rocket.
At 100 feet, he took out his yew wand and pointed it at the rowdy wizards.
