Chapter 157: Wand Detection

After more than a week, the Triwizard Tournament finally made some progress.

Ike was in Charms class, but not long after, he was notified that he needed to go to an abandoned classroom on the fifth floor, where he needed some prep preparations for the tournament.

Professor Flitwick gave him the green light, and he walked out of the Charms classroom to a round of applause.

The abandoned classrooms on the fifth floor had actually been cleaned up long ago, originally to meet the borrowing needs of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, although for some reason, the two schools did not use these classrooms, and Ike regretted it for a long time, but these classrooms were not abandoned again.

And apparently, it has been cleaned up again recently. When he walked into the house, he first saw Ludo chatting with a witch in a magenta robe.

"You're the first, Ike!" Ludo looked delighted,

"They're not here yet!"

"Can I know what's going on, Mr. Bagman?" Ike asked with a smile, then at the witch next to him who had looked unnatural since he came in.

"And this is ......"

"Oh, this is Rita Starkey, she's writing an article about the tournament for the Daily Prophet, and I'll need you to take a few pictures and do a simple interview...... "Ludo walked over and patted Ike on the shoulder, and said,

"Of course, the most important thing is the wand testing ceremony, we must check whether your wand is fully functional and in good condition, after all, in the future competition, the wand is your most important tool."

"Dumbledore is upstairs with the expert, and will come when you're all there." As he spoke, he looked at his watch,

"Wait a minute, soon."

"Yes, Mr. Bagman." Ike nodded, and walked to the side seat and sat down.

During this time, Rita's eyes fell on Ike.

"Ms. Starkey, Ms. Starkey......" Seeing that Rita seemed a little absent-minded, Ludo said,

"What's wrong, Ms. Starkey?"

"Nothing, Mr. Bagman." Rita shook her head and smiled charmingly,

"I'm just curious, you know, like we all have a curious heart."

"Of course......," Ludo laughed,

"In fact, it's amazing that he's a warrior. Did you know, he actually ...... "While Ludo and Rita were whispering and chatting, Krum and Fleur arrived.

After greeting Ludo, Krum walked straight to the corner and quietly led it against the wall. Fleur, on the other hand, walked straight to Ike.

"You don't look like you're fifteen." Furong Shi Shiran sat on the chair next to her and said with a smile,

"If someone hadn't said it, I'd have thought you were the same age as us."

"Maybe, I'm in a hurry." Ike replied that he wouldn't say it was a time turner

One of the "side effects", this kind of thing, is completely unnecessary to talk about.

"It's really funny." Fleur said,

"I've heard a lot about you these days, did you really put that mad-eyed Moody in the hospital?"

"It's not that exaggerated, Professor Moody actually only spent one day in the university hospital, and I lay there for about ten days." Ike explained.

"yes, I haven't heard of that." Fleur nodded thoughtfully. The two of them chatted and chatted one by one, and after a while, Harry finally arrived.

He looked preoccupied, a little absent-minded, and a little dazed, and mechanically greeted Ludo and wanted to come to Ike's side.

However, before he could come over, Rita, who had always been equally preoccupied, happily pulled him away and went straight into the broom in the corner.

"This ...... Reporter, has it always been like this? Fleur seemed surprised.

"I don't know." Ike replied,

"She's a well-known journalist and very popular with people."

"But it's a pity that I don't read the newspaper often and don't know her very well." After a while, Dumbledore, Miss Maxim, Karkaroff, Crouch Sr., and Mr. Oliveantor entered the room, and after not finding Harry, Dumbledore asked, "Where is Harry?" Hasn't he arrived yet? ”

"Rita was pulled into the broomroom, and she wanted to interview Harry first." Ludo explained. Hearing this, Dumbledore opened the door of the broomroom and quickly brought Harry out.

"Alright, now that you're all here, allow me to introduce Mr. Ollivander who will check your wand and make sure it's in good shape before the game." Ollivander walked to the middle of the room with a smile on his face, bowed slightly at the five referees, and said, "So, let's get started, Miss Delacour, you come first, okay?" Fleur stepped forward and handed her wand.

"Good, good......" Ollivander carefully checked the wand, using it to release many small sparks and small streamers,

"Nine-and-a-half-inch, very elastic, made of maple, and ......"

"Meiwa's hair?"

"Yes, that's my grandma's hair." Fleur said.

"Good, in good shape." Ollivander nodded, didn't say anything more, and returned the wand to Fleur.

"Mr. Krum, it's your turn." Krum was a little listless, and slipped his wand in his hand.

"This is ......" Ollivanders frowned unconsciously,

"Grigovich's work? I don't agree with some of his sentiments, but it's a good wand. ”

"Hornbeam, dragon's heartstring, ten and a quarter of an inch......"

"Good, very good." After returning the Krum, Ollivander beckoned,

"Then Mr. Potter, it's your turn." Harry was in a much better mood than when he first came in, handing over his wand.

Ollivanders' expression changed immediately, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I remember, I remember this wand......" Ollivander examined it more carefully than Fleur and Krum,

"Very well preserved, no problem at all."

"Last, then, Mr. Strade, your wand ......" Ollivander frowned a second time as he took Ike's wand.

He examined it more closely, and glanced up at Ike from time to time.

"I recognize, it's my work......"

"Cedar wood, unicorn fur, twelve and three-quarters inches, a steady combination, loyal wand......" Ollivander waved his wand, and a white cloud floated out from the tip of the wand.

"It's magical, it's amazing, I can feel that this wand has gone through some very thrilling things, and that has made it more mature......"

"It must be your good helper, Mr. Stred, it's repelling me." Ollivander handed the wand back,

"It's like new, it's amazing."

"Thank you, I'm done."
