Chapter 157 Being Cheated

【Thank you readers for the gifts and add another chapter (＾?＾)?】

Rowling watched this fierce sporting spectacle, and could not help but feel an indescribable excitement in his heart. This was a real showdown! The thrilling scene made him, who was not interested in Quidditch games, excited!

It can be imagined that the people in the audience were in an uproar at this moment, with cheers and shouts rising one after another, deafening!

Countless fireworks bloomed in the sky, and the colorful lights illuminated the entire stadium, like the brightest stars in the night sky. The noisy cheers resounded through the sky, as if they were going to overturn the place.

In the sky, the Irish team’s mascots, the leprechauns, were dancing gracefully and taking cheerful steps to celebrate this grand victory!

"We're rich! We're rich!" Suddenly, there was an excited shout behind Rowling, the voice full of joy and excitement. He turned around and saw George and Fred hugging each other tightly, their faces flushed, their eyes flashing with uncontrollable excitement. Yes, they won the bet!

After a burst of excitement, George and Fred looked at Rowling in disbelief, because everything was just as he predicted. The Irish team defeated Bulgaria with a score of 170 to 160!

At this moment, the two of them wanted to kneel down and worship Luo Lin, and the heat in their eyes seemed to want to eat him alive. They never thought that Luo Lin could actually predict the result of the game, and it was so accurate. They were full of admiration for Luo Lin.

With the successful conclusion of the game, Bill went with the Ministry of Magic's Sports Enforcement Department to hand over the live broadcast. This game will surely cause a huge response on the Internet, and will undoubtedly make them a lot of money. They have uploaded the video of the entire game to the Internet and set up a paid column.

This business model is like point card recharge. Users can buy a certain amount of point cards from Luo Lin, and then these amounts will be displayed on their personal Internet accounts and can be used to watch games or purchase other items.

George and Fred said goodbye to Rowling excitedly and couldn't wait to claim their prize.

After the game, Rowling took the little wolf back to the Weasleys' tent. At this time, Mrs. Weasley had already prepared a sumptuous dinner, waiting for the children to come back and enjoy it.

The match was extremely long, lasting for several hours. As time went by, Harry, Ron and the others returned to the camp one after another. As a staff member of the Ministry of Magic, Mr. Arthur naturally had to go to maintain order after the match.

Just as Harry and Ron were excitedly discussing the game that had just ended, George Fred returned to the tent with an excited look on his face.

They excitedly shared their betting results with Harry and Mrs. Weasley, and proudly showed off the gold coins they exchanged. Everyone cheered for George and Fred, but at this moment, Rowling and the little wolf suddenly looked at each other, because they both recognized that these gold coins were made by the leprechaun.

George noticed that Rowling was frowning and couldn't help but teasing, "Haha, Rowling, don't be jealous. This is your one gold Galleon and ten silver Sickles!" As he spoke, he took out the bonus he had just exchanged from the Ministry of Magic from his pocket.

At this time, Rowling picked up the gold coin in his hand with great interest and looked at it carefully. The delicate texture and heavy feel all proved that this was a real gold Galleon.

The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes. Then, he moved his gaze to George Weasley, who was fiddling with the gold coins he won from the private gaming table with a smug look on his face.

Luo Lin smiled slightly, picked up the gold coin on the table calmly, and played with it in his hand. Suddenly, he flicked his fingers lightly, and a weak magic power was injected into it, followed by a "bang" sound.

The coin that was originally shining with golden light suddenly exploded and turned into countless golden powders that floated in the air. However, there was not even a trace of residue left in his hand.

Everyone was stunned, especially George and Fred. They stared with wide eyes, looking at the "gold coins" in their hands turning into nothingness in disbelief.

"What's going on?" Fred asked stutteringly, his mind full of doubts and confusion. At this moment, their brains seemed to have suffered a heavy blow, and everything went blank.

Luo Lin smiled and explained: "These seemingly realistic gold coins are actually made by leprechauns. They love to play tricks on people. It seems that you have been deceived."

Hearing this, George and Fred were immediately furious, and as if possessed, they began to frantically inject magic power into these "gold coins". As expected, they all burst like balloons, but nothing was left!

In the end, it turned out that except for the 800 gold Galleons exchanged by the Ministry of Magic, the rest were all fake!

When Ron saw this, he couldn't help but throw out the gold coins he had just put in his pocket!

The more they tried, the angrier they became. Even Harry, Ron, and Percy were infected by their emotions. They rushed out of the tent to settle accounts with Ludo Bagman! However, when they arrived, the place was already empty! There was only a group of wizards who were as angry as they were!

"Damn it! How dare he lie to us?" George said angrily.

"I'm going to make this liar pay the price!" Fred also clenched his fists, his face full of anger.

"We must find him and not let him get away!"

They searched everywhere for Ludo Bagman, but to no avail, so they returned to their tent.

George Fred seemed to have lost his soul and returned to the tent like a zombie! They bet a total of 4500 gold galleons, and after deducting the 800 that they got back, they were cheated out of 3700 gold galleons!

I really regret it! If only I had listened to Luo Lin's advice at that time!

"I really regret not listening to Rowling..." George muttered to himself, his face full of regret. His voice was filled with deep self-blame and regret, as if he was blaming himself for being so stubborn.

"What's the point of saying this now?" Fred slapped his head in frustration, his heart filled with endless regret. He realized that it was useless to regret now.

"We have to find a way to get the money back!" George frowned, his eyes firm and decisive. He knew that only by finding the person who cheated them of their money could they recover their losses.

"But how can I find him? That guy has already disappeared without a trace!" Fred sighed in despair, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He knew it was not easy to find that person, but he was unwilling to give up.

Just as the two were lost in thought, there was a sound of brisk footsteps outside the tent. Then, Bill walked in happily. His face was filled with a joyful smile, which was in sharp contrast to the heavy atmosphere in the tent.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you all so depressed?" Bill looked at the two curiously, and felt the sadness around them. He couldn't help but ask in confusion: "What happened?"
