Chapter 252: Quidditch World Cup
Sirius would have politely refused, after all, he felt that Harry's good was enough, and there was no need for him to go up and take a good position. But Mr. Weasley looked at Hermione, who was standing next to Ryan, and grabbed Sirius with a knowing understanding, and then smiled and said, "Of course, I wish you all a good time." After saying that, he pulled away Sirius, who was still confused.
After that, everyone walked up the fuchsia carpet on the stairs, and the flow of people continued to divide into the stands on the left and right. Ryan said goodbye to the Weasleys and Harry before following the signs in the hallway to the Black family's box.
"That reason shouldn't be the whole reason just now, right?" Ryan asked Hermione beside him.
"Not really. Hermione replied, "There are two Ministers of Magic and a bunch of celebrities in the top box, and I don't think it's appropriate for me to be there to watch the game right now." ”
Well, this answer is very British. Traditionally, the British tend to attach great importance to class divisions, such as the famous Royal Jockey Club, which is divided into the Royal Audience, the Queen Anne and the Village Audience, and the Windsor Audience. Each auditorium has a series of elaborate requirements for the identity of the person above it, yet countless Britons still regard it as a top-level social occasion. A middle-class girl like Hermione must have been greatly affected by this environment.
"But seriously, as the youngest recipient of the Order of Merlin in decades. It's not too much for us to sit there. Ryan said with a shrug.
"All right, and I don't want you to spend boring time alone with that old man. What do you think of this reasoning?" Hermione's face flushed a little, and she stamped her foot and walked straight forward.
"That's — certainly a very good reason. Ryan walked a few quick steps to the door of Black's box. Then he gentlemanly opened the door for Hermione. "Come in, my lady. ”
Hermione pursed her lips and walked into the room with a smile on her face, and Ryan followed. This is a small box of only a dozen square meters, although there is no full view of the top box, but because the view from the height of the arena is also very good,
Looking out from the railing, you can see that the box is right next to the golden goalposts, and the house is dominated by emerald green and silver. Two green and silver-plated chairs sit side by side in the center of the room, and in the center of the chair is a coffee table with a silver tray for small plates of snacks and two glasses of freshly squeezed juice.
"Is this the essence of a pure-blood family? After the two of them sat down, Ryan sighed as he took a sip of cold juice. He even found that the private rooms on this floor had magic cover against the arena, and the inside could clearly see the outside. But you can't see the inside of the box at all. As he condescendingly looked at the wizards huddled in the row below, Ryan fully felt the power of those pure-blood families.
But the Weasleys are the real bulls, with only 20 seats in the top box, but the Weasleys got half of the tickets in one go. Even outsiders like Ryan and Hermione can be brought in. You must know that in addition to the seats of the Weasleys, the remaining seats are the ministers of magic of the two countries, the director of the Department of Sports of the Ministry of Magic, Ludo, and Barty Crouch, who was supposed to be Percy's direct boss. In short, it is an important person who can start a wizarding world war after a room is killed.
I just don't know if Barty Crouch, Jr., who should have appeared there today, will still appear there, after all, he has changed too much of the plot before, and under the butterfly effect, Ryan is no longer sure that the plot will continue according to the original style.
"Of course, if Barty Crouch Jr. is not there, it means that what I am doing is not in vain, and there is no strong sense of the world that controls everything in this world. Ryan was thinking about this when a thunderous sound resounded throughout the packed gymnasium.
"Ladies and gentlemen...... Welcome to the 422nd Quidditch World Cup Final!"
Ryan easily understood that today's commentary should be in charge of Ludo Bagman, the director of the passionate sports department, and as the audience erupted into a commotion, the board on Lane's right, which had been displaying the advertisement, showed the score of the moment after showing the last advertisement for the multi-flavored bean (which is estimated to be the most expensive one in the bidding ranking).
Bulgaria: 0, Ireland: 0
Ludo's voice continued to sound in the field: "Okay, without further ado, allow me to introduce ...... The mascot of the Bulgarian national team!" Lane was a neat bright red phalanx below the box they were in, and at this moment a loud cheer erupted.
The mascot Ryan's first reaction was the cute panda from the Asian Games the year before he entered Hogwarts, but suddenly his mind remembered the part in it, so he quickly gathered his mind. After all, this kind of occasion is not a good place to take a closer look at the mascot of the Bulgarian team.
If you think about the Chinese translation of Meiwa, you can roughly guess what kind of magical creatures it is, but Ryan thinks they should be considered a subhuman race.
After all, they are very close to humans most of the time, and more importantly, they are not reproductively isolated from humans. Hibiscus is an example. This also proves that the earliest source of blood power of some pure-blood families may come from this kind of intermarriage with magical creatures, after all, according to the information he knows, half-blood girls tend to be beautiful, can eat, have relatively strong mana, and have some kind of innate spell-like ability, such as some kind of charm.
When these girls came to the field, Ryan really felt a strange magic temptation. It's just that with Ryan's mind fully defended, this temptation has no effect on him. But even if all the magical factors are filtered out, Ryan must admit that the unified characteristic of these charms is that they are beautiful, very beautiful, very beautiful.
At this time, the green phalanx on the opposite side of the box was already in chaos, and many people were tearing the green flowers on their chests and the forgiveness-colored hats on their heads. In such a comparison, Ryan's performance even seemed too calm.
"Do you think Meiwa is pretty?" As Ryan watched them dance in mid-air with interest, a voice came from beside him.
"It's just some kind of powerful magical effect, and to me a good-looking skin is far less attractive than an interesting soul. It's just that this kind of legendary dance may not be seen once in a lifetime by ordinary people, and if you don't take advantage of this time to take a look, you won't have a chance in the future. Ryan replied naturally.
Then a refilled glass of chilled juice was handed to Ryan.
A whole hundred babies, and the Bulgarians probably hope to attract enough supporters. They looked like they should have done it: a large number of supporters of Ireland ripped off their hats and trims, and expressed their full displeasure with Meiwa's departure.
The Irish team quickly salvaged the situation, first a large golden and green comet flew into the field, then turned into two small comets and scattered, and finally formed a huge green clover in the air.
As the clover floated in the air, countless gold coins crackled and fell from the sky. These gold coins are numerous and dense, as if there was a gold rain on the ground.
One uses color, the other uses money. These two ministries of magic are really good enough. But it was clear that everyone liked it, and Ryan saw that most of the people underground were picking up gold coins, and even the dissatisfaction with Meiwa's departure disappeared.
Ryan picked up a few gold coins that had fallen in the box, and Hermione teased her, "Don't you know it's a leprechaun's gold coin?"
"Of course I do, but I'm curious as to why their gold coins disappear after an hour. Ryan sat back in his seat and began to study the coins.
