Chapter 356 Barty Crouch and Umbridge
·
He Dian Bai Kai Shui
Before Percy and Ludo Bagman could move, there was a sound of air exploding on the road beside the tent, and a wizard appeared out of thin air.
"Barty, you came just in time, I was looking for you." Ludo Bagman waved.
It turned out that he was Barty Crouch, Suer cast his eyes over curiously.
Barty Crouch wore a meticulous black suit and tie like a Muggle bank manager, and his leather shoes were polished.
Suer felt the temperature suspiciously. Yes, it's summer now...
Although Barty Crouch was wearing a crisp suit, his condition did not match the suit at all. His eyes were sunken, his hair was a little messy, his breathing was heavy, his back was a little rickety, and his whole body was filled with a heavy of loss and exhaustion.
Every official who is forced to fall from a position of real power is like this. Although there are some with a good attitude, Barty Crouch is obviously not one of them.
Barty's current result has something to do with him. Soul rubbed his nose, but he didn't regret it at all. The Sirius matter itself was Barty Crouch's mistake. If he had interrogated him at the time, he would have been wrong. There will be no such result.
What's even more interesting is Percy. Even though Barty is his immediate superior, he just perfunctorily called him "Deputy Director." This subtitle is very essential.
"Sit down and take a rest, Barty. You must have been very busy during this time, right?" Ludo Bagman said with a smile.
"No, Ludo, thank you." Barty Crouch waved his hand, "I have been looking for you, and the Bulgarians insisted that we add twelve more seats to the top box."
"So that's it." Ludo Bagman nodded suddenly, "I thought they wanted me to prepare a pair of tweezers for them. The accent is too strong."
At this moment, Percy shouted excitedly, "Ms. Umbridge!"
Everyone followed his gaze, and not far away, a woman wearing a pink hat, pink eye shadow, lipstick, and a pink skirt walked over surrounded by a group of people.
Soul noticed a look of disgust flash across Barty Crouch's old face.
"Oh, dear, good afternoon." Umbridge's voice was full of affectation. She seemed to be speaking with her voice in her throat. Sol didn't know how other people felt, but he thought this woman's words were contained in her voice. Airy.
Percy was so excited that he leaned forward and bowed, with a flattering smile on his face, "Would you like a cup of tea? Ms. Umbridge."
"Oh! That's so sweet of you, my dear, but I don't think so. I have other things to do." Umbridge said, raising her orchid finger, "Thank you, Weatherby."
"Pfft, cough, cough, cough." Fred and George almost spit out the water in their mouths, bending over and coughing hard.
Percy's ears suddenly turned pink and he looked down at his toes.
"Barty, I have something to ask you. This is very important and affects the image of our Ministry of Magic in the world." Umbridge said sternly after she 'declined' Percy's invitation to bring tea.
"Can you please wait a moment? Ms. Umbridge, I still have some important matters to communicate with Arthur." Barty Crouch sighed and said helplessly.
"Is there anything more important than our international image?" Umbridge said with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone, "You'd better think carefully before speaking, Barty."
Oh, what's Barty Crouch's position in the Ministry of Magic now?Soul touched his chin and looked at Umbridge's posture as if she was ordering a servant.
Barty Crouch's face turned green and red, and he seemed a little embarrassed, but in the end he still said with a gloomy face, "Okay, Ms. Umbridge, let's deal with your important matters first."
"Where are those Bulgarians?"
"Top box." Umbridge hummed in satisfaction and replied.
"I'll come back to you later, Arthur." Barty Crouch left a message to Mr. Weasley before leaving, and disappeared on the spot.
"Okay, it's time for me to go." Umbridge said to Mr. Weasley somewhat arrogantly, "You know, Minister Fudge thinks highly of me and lets me take this position, so I have to take responsibility for it. , everything now has to make way for the World Cup and the next big things.”
"See you later, dear Weatherby."
"Go slowly, Ms. Umbridge." Percy paused for a moment, then immediately bent down to say goodbye.
Umbridge nodded with satisfaction, twisted her hips and turned away, and the group of people cheered and disappeared.
After Umbridge disappeared, Ludo Bagman chuckled, "It's really majestic."
Mr. Weasley looked at Percy, sighed and shook his head without saying anything.
"By the way, Arthur, I guess you haven't told the children yet, a big event will happen at Hogwarts this year..." Ludo Bagman smiled and winked at Soul and the others.
"Ludo!" Mr. Weasley interrupted Ludo Bagman and reminded him, "Don't forget, we all signed."
"Oh, details!" Ludo Bagman waved his hand disapprovingly, as if to ward off buzzing flies,
"We just can't reveal some details, don't worry, Arthur, I bet the kids will get the news soon, I mean, right at the start of the Hogwarts school year."
But seeing Mr. Weasley's serious expression, Ludo Bagman still shook his head, "Okay, okay, then I'll leave first and see what unrealistic ideas those Bulgarians have proposed." Require."
"Boys, I'll wait for you to come to me after the game to redeem your bonus. I wish you good luck."
"see you later."
Ludo Bagman walked to the side of the road and disappeared with a pop.
Except for Soul and Hermione, who knew the inside story, the others were completely confused about the big events that were going to happen at Hogwarts.
"So what's going on, Dad?" Fred asked immediately.
"You will find out soon." Mr. Weasley smiled mysteriously, "We have signed and can't say anything."
"This is a secret. We won't know until the ministry decides to make it public." Percy seemed to have recovered from the embarrassment of remembering the wrong name last time.
"Dad was right not to tell."
"Oh, it's top secret again!! I will hear this word calloused during this summer vacation." George shouted.
"Oh, shut up, Weatherby!" Fred said too.
"You guys!!!" Percy was respectful to his superiors, but not so respectful to his younger brother. He put on a straight face, not to mention a bit majestic.
"Okay, kids, we'd better fill our bellies quickly. The camp will be very lively in a while, and you won't want to miss this event." Mr. Weasley immediately smoothed things over.
"I see that you and Hermione are not curious at all. Do you know what is going to happen?" Harry said quietly to Soul.
Soul and Hermione looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths curled up. Since no one said anything, it was better to keep it secret until the end. Anyway, it wasn't long before school started.
"Professor Dumbledore will announce it when term starts."
"Barty, you came just in time, I was looking for you." Ludo Bagman waved.
