Chapter 186: Excitement and betting
John's tent was lively, big enough for fifty people to fit in.
Malfoy stinks about coming with his parents, who have been invited to Ludo Bagman, the director of the Department of Magical Physical Sports.
The other party sent tickets to the Malfoy family, which the Malfoy family deserved.
John was tempted to tell him that Ludo Bagman was sending tickets to many families because he wanted them to pay more money to participate in the quiz.
This is a shrewd philistine who understands that wool comes from sheep, and he is extraordinarily generous in giving away tickets.
Fleur is intrigued by Durmstrang and Ilvermorny, and she vaguely asks the two if they know anything about the Triwizard Tournament.
Heinrich glanced at her indifferently, because of the Triwizard Tournament, he didn't have to return to Durmstrang this year.
Kim Ledisley is a pity that there is no room for Ilvermorny to participate in the Triwizard Tournament, although Ilvermorny is a world-class magic school, it is not a European school and is not on the list of Triwizard Tournament players.
Fleur was proud of this, as Beauxbatons had been around for a long time since Ilvermorny.
Cedric was gentle enough to talk to anyone, and he and Kim met and quickly became friends.
Even the proud Fleur was very fond of this gentle boy, and the two of them talked happily with each other.
Daphne stared at Fleur with a look of antiquity, this demagogic woman like a beautiful baby is definitely not easy to mess with.
Astoria takes good care of her younger sister, Gabrielle, and they are having a hard time choosing between colorful treats.
The atmosphere here was good, and Percy glanced at the time, and he had to leave first to deal with the reception officials.
Opening the tent, he saw a tall figure.
It's Hagrid.
A group of wizard kids gathered around him, talking about big trolls and the like, which made Hagrid a little difficult to move.
He muttered with a bewildered face, for fear that he would accidentally step on those little spots.
"Professor Hagrid." Percy walked over to chase away the obnoxious Wizard Bear Kids for him.
Percy is a polite man, and Hagrid is a professor of conservation of magical animals.
Hagrid was delighted that Percy had cleared him up, and he received a ticket to the Quidditch World Cup from John.
Originally, he didn't have time to attend, but Dumbledore found out and gave him a day off.
In the next tent, Harry hears Hagrid's voice and emerges, and Ron is freed from Mrs. Weasley's nagging.
A little later, in a smaller tent, Hermione ran out.
"Hagrid!"
They were pleasantly surprised to see Hagrid coming, and Hagrid laughed and asked, "Do you know where John's tent is, I think I'm a little lost." ”
"I'm sorry, Hagrid, we don't know." Harry didn't know that John's tent was next to him.
Percy pointed to the circus-like tent and said, "There, there, Professor Hagrid." ”
Following his finger, Harry had previously complained to Ron about whether the next door was a circus.
Hermione was pleasantly surprised, "John is there." ”
Several people leaned over and tentatively opened the tent door.
Inside is a luxury tent that can accommodate up to 50 people.
Hagrid was sneaky, and it was so obvious that he couldn't stand his height.
Gabrielle stared blankly at this big guy as tall as Madame Maxim, and couldn't help but open her mouth wide and said, "You are just like Madame Maxim." ”
Fleur thought it was some strange wizard who had broken in, and drew her wand with a wary expression.
Luckily for Kim, he had met Hagrid when he was working at Johnny Silverhand.
"Hagrid, it's great that you're here."
John greeted him with a smile of surprise, and Hagrid saw that the little girl Gabrielle was still looking at him, and waved his hand in greeting.
He moved very lightly, as if he was afraid that he would accidentally blow the little girl away.
Three more heads popped up from behind, three small ones.
They couldn't help but open their mouths as wide as Gabrielle when they looked at the luxury of this tent.
"Harry, Ron, Hermione."
John greeted them in turn, and the three little ones came in dumbfounded.
Ron, in particular, couldn't figure out why there was such a big tent and he thought it could be used for Quidditch matches, but of course, it was just an exaggeration.
A group of people introduce each other, and soon John notices that something is wrong with Harry and Ron.
The two of them blushed, their eyes sneaking glances at Fleur from time to time.
Fleur smiled disdainfully and stroked her hair, making the ears of the two young boys red.
Malfoy was jealous when he saw this (?) He walked up to Harry and habitually unleashed his taunting skills, causing the two boys to instantly break free from the charm of the baby's attributes.
John had learned that Fleur had a baby bloodline, and that she was born with all these charms.
Ordinary boys really can't control it, as for why the Stars Club is fine, it's because they have a strong psychological quality.
Even Malfoy was emotionally trained by John, and this psychological quality was scolded.
The others were chatting harmoniously, and the three of them were about to cast a spell.
On the other hand, Hermione approached John to talk about his holiday homework.
Daphne saw it, and immediately leaned over, and Hermione was baffled by the posture that I want to see what you said.
When Fleur saw it, she almost burst out laughing.
She could naturally see Daphne's thoughts, and it was easy for a girl of this age to regard all the girls around her as enemies.
But unfortunately, Fleur only sees John as a friend and doesn't have much thought.
Originally, she had a good impression of Cedric, but after hearing that he had someone she liked, Fleur decided to cut off that good feeling.
This is Fleur, an extremely proud woman who never disdains to rob men.
Hagrid's addition makes the tent much more lively, and the two little girls are very fond of Hagrid.
After all, who doesn't love the cute big Hagrid.
It's like a big bear doll, so secure.
It wasn't until lunchtime that Mr. Weasley couldn't find the three little ones, and called out a few times, and the three little ones remembered to go back.
Fleur also left, and she said goodbye with Gabrielle, who waved at Hagrid reluctantly.
Malfoy thought of his parents and left quickly, and the people in the tent left one by one.
Leave Heinrich and Kim and Hagrid behind.
Hagrid wants to show off his cooking skills, and John thinks that his teeth may be a little sore, so Kim offers to help with the cooking, and takes Heinrich away by the way, and he is called to help light the fire.
So angry that Heinrich wanted to draw his wand again.
Daphne didn't want to leave, but her sister dragged people away with all her strength.
Such a sister makes my sister tired.
At lunchtime, the Weasleys' eldest son, Bill, and their second son, Charlie, arrived.
When Hagrid heard Charlie, he immediately ran over to discuss the news of the fire dragon Norber.
Noble, who was sent away in the first grade, was missed very much by his male mother.
John ate two bites casually, and Kim thought it was unappetizing.
John just smiled and didn't say anything.
He hears Ludo Bagman's voice, who is egging the twins to bet and make Mr. Weasley want to get rid of him.
"As I remember, there was a special place for betting." John walked out of the tent and said with a smirk, "Mr. Bagman wouldn't secretly open an illegal quiz behind someone's back, would he?" ”
Ludo Bagman didn't know John, and he said a little unnaturally, "Haha, how could it be. ”
The twins are not stupid, and as soon as they heard this, they immediately became alarmed.
John noticed that the money they took out was quite a lot.
It seems that they made a lot of money selling props last year, and after thinking about it, John continued: "If you want to bet, there are regular channels near the stadium. ”
"Give us back the money."
"And fake wands!"
The Weasley twins immediately went to grab it, and Ludo Bagman turned around and ran, shouting as he ran, "You've already bet." ”
Don't look at it now, Ludo Bagman used to be the best hitter, with speed and reflexes.
The Weasley twins didn't catch up, and watched the yellow-and-black striped fat man disappear.
Percy came back with Barty Crouch, and they came looking for Ludo Bagman, who had gone as fast as he could.
In the evening, the Quidditch World Cup officially begins.
