My Hogwarts Day

Chapter 267: Ludo And Crouch

While Richard and Charlie were eating egg sausages and discussing how many dragons there are in Romania, a so-called important person came to their camp.

"Hello, Ludo." Mr. Weasley greeted a middle-aged fat wizard in a Quidditch robe enthusiastically.

"Arthur, my old buddy." Ludo came to the campfire panting, although he was very tired, he was still in good spirits.

"What a beautiful weather, isn't it? There is nothing better than this. The sky will be clear at night, and everything has been properly prepared. Look, I have nothing to do now."

At this moment, a group of staff from the Ministry of Magic, who looked very haggard, hurried past, and it was obvious that another master was casting magic.

Because Percy got a job in the Department of International Magical Cooperation of the Ministry of Magic during the holidays, he now wants to show himself in front of the Ministry of Magic staff. Although Ludo Bagman is in the Department of Magical Sports, he is always a Secretary.

Just when Percy was jumping up and down around Ludo to answer the conversation, Mr. Weasley also took the initiative to introduce to Ludo.

"This is my son Percy. Just started working at the Ministry of Magic, these two are George Fred, they are Bill, Charlie, Ronald, and my daughter Ginny, these are Ronald's friends, Richard Harris, Hermione Granger and Harry Potter."

Hearing Harry's name, Bagman showed a slightly surprised look, his eyes immediately flicked to the scar on Harry's forehead, but that was all he wanted, and he focused more on Richard, as a As a politician, he is quite familiar with the spirit of the Minister of Magic, and he also understands the importance that the Gospel places on this little wizard.

Mr. Weasley continued, "This is Ludo Bagman, you know who he is, and thanks to him, we can get such a good ticket."

Ludo smiled all over his face and waved his hand, as if to say that it was nothing.

"Want to place a bet on the game, Arthur?" Ludo asked Mr. Weasley in a low voice while shaking the purse inside his clothes, "They all participated."

Although Mr. Weasley didn't want to participate, he still said with the idea of ​​being a group. "Okay, then shall I bet on Ireland to win with a Galleon?"

"A Garen?" Ludo looked a little disappointed, but he quickly adjusted and said to Sirius

"Anyone else want to bet? Why don't you come, Blake?"

Sirius obviously didn't want to have any contact with these officials of the Ministry of Magic, and he hadn't eased up about Regulus, so he ignored Ludo and returned to the tent.

In order to avoid Ludo's embarrassment, Mr. Weasley said quickly.

"Others are too young to gamble

Before Mr. Weasley had finished speaking, Fred and George spoke at once.

"We bet thirty-seven Galleons, fifteen Sickles, and three Knuts on Ireland, but Viktor Krum will catch the Snitch. Oh yes, and we'll add A false wand."

Ludo took the wand from Fred, it croaked and turned into a rubber chicken, and he immediately burst out laughing.

"It's really good, I'll buy it for five Galleons!"

"I don't want you to gamble, boys, and it's all your savings," Mr. Weasley whispered to the twins.

"Don't spoil the fun, Arthur! They're old enough to know what they want! And it's just a game."

"I offered a thousand Galleons, and Ireland would win, but Viktor Krum would catch the Snitch.

Hearing this sound, the scene suddenly fell silent, and Charlie, who was still biting the sausage, was also stunned. After he swallowed it hastily, he said to Richard in front of him.

"Did you call it just now? Richard, that's 1,000 Galleons." Charlie has a good impression of this little wizard he just met, after all, everyone 'likes' fire dragons.

"It's me, I'll offer 1000 Galleons, Mr. Bagman, can you?"

"Yes, of course, Mr. Harris, I will definitely give you a very high odds. After making sure, Ireland wins [Victor Krum caught the Snitch?"

After seeing Richard nodding and handing over 1000 Galleons to him, his face flushed with excitement. As a former professional hitter, his professional perception told him that this situation is impossible, that is He said that the 1,000 Galleons were already in his pocket.

Just when Ludo was bouncing away from the Weasley family's camp, Mr. Weasley realized that he ran to Richard anxiously and said.

"Richard, that's 1,000 Galleons, why don't you think about it, don't worry, if you don't want to gamble anymore, I'll tell Ludo, I believe he will give me back this face.

Under the gaze of the others, Richard calmly took a bite of the sausage, looking at the anxious middle-aged wizard in front of him, Richard still felt warm in his heart.

"Don't worry, Mr. Weasley, this is my savings for the past two years. It doesn't matter if I lose. Besides, I believe George and Fred's opinion, they are very powerful.

It’s okay if Richard didn’t say anything. After speaking, Mr. Weasley became even more worried. If it weren’t for his two sons, Richard might not have gambled. Thinking of this, he gave the twins a hard look, and then began to mutter, if Richard loses Yes, the Weasley family has to pay a little bit of compensation.

Richard ignored others and continued to speak to Charlie with ulterior motives.

"Charlie, next summer, can I go to Romania to find you and see those dragons.

"Of course," Charlie said softly after looking around. "Don't you also know that we're going to Hogwarts?"

Richard also followed in a low voice, "I know about the Triwizard Tournament, but it's rare after all. How spectacular you have so many dragons there."

"Three strong.... Hearing Richard's words, Charlie cried out in surprise, but just halfway there, he realized it immediately and covered his mouth.

"What? Don't you know about the Triwizard Tournament?" Richard asked curiously.

"Of course I don't know. I only know that after you start school, we need to let us transport a few fire dragons over there. This is still an absolute secret and you are not allowed to tell anyone. I didn't expect it to be a Triwizard Tournament. You really are Lucky."

"Mr. Crouch!" Percy suddenly stood up excitedly, causing everyone to look at him.

I saw a wizard coming to their camp. It was a man in his fifties, with a straight waist and stiff movements. He was also wearing a neat suit and tie, and his leather shoes were polished to a shine. It is in stark contrast to most wizards.

Percy leaned forward in a bowing gesture that made him look like a hunchback. "Would you like a cup of tea?"

Crouch frowned and glanced at Percy, as if he had seen this person somewhere, and by the way, who was it.

"Well, thank you, Wetherby."

Hearing Crouch's words, the twins burst out laughing, and Percy also turned red.

After Crouch was finished, Mr. Weasley also came over to greet him, and then introduced everyone to him.

Originally Harry thought that the wizard would also look at his own scars, but he didn't expect that Crouch's reaction would be even more violent when he heard Richard's name.

"Richard Harris!" As an old man of the Ministry of Magic, he also knew some things that others didn't know. He even knew that the matter of Sirius was the idea that Richard gave Fudge, which made him, who was in a better situation, suddenly become the target of public criticism.

"Mr. Harris, I wonder if we can have a chat." Crouch stood up suddenly, then walked to Richard, and said to Richard.

Richard nodded, first gave Mr. Weasley and Hermione a reassuring look, and then followed Crouch into the forest.

"Mr. Harris, I know that the matter about Sirius was your idea for Fudge. To be honest, although it makes me very uncomfortable, it doesn't have much impact." K90 Rauch said forcefully.

"However, I appreciate such an excellent little wizard like you. Let me tell you, what benefits does Fudge give you? If you help him, I can give you more. After all, he is not our pure-blooded nobleman.

"What's the matter with pure blood, what do you have?" Before Richard could speak, Sirius' voice suddenly sounded from behind them

It turned out that after Richard followed Crouch into the forest, Harry quickly ran into the tent and told Sirius about the matter, and Sirius didn't talk nonsense, and hurried in too

"Sirius Black!" Crouch saw Black's appearance, and his expression turned pale. Regardless of whether Sirius was innocent or not, he was the one who got him into Azkaban, and now Crouch More than anyone wants to lock Sirius back in.

"Just ask me if you have anything to do, don't bother Richard anymore." Sirius said forcefully to Crouch.

And Richard, who has been standing on the side, is a little confused now, what is the situation, didn’t he let me come? Why did these two people talk about it, or should I go?

But obviously Crouch didn't want to continue talking to Sirius, he said directly to Richard stiffly.

"For me, you can think about it. I will come to you again after the Quidditch World Cup."

After saying that, Crouch left without looking back, and when he passed by the Weasley's tent, Percy came to say hello excitedly, but he didn't respond.

Seeing Richard and Sirius come out, Harry hurried over.

"Well, what did he say? I just found out that it was this man who took Sirius in." Harry looked at the two anxiously. After all, Sirius was his godfather, and he didn't want his only relative to come out again. what is the problem.

"It's nothing, at first I wanted to see what bargaining chip he could give, but now... Seeing Harry's nervous expression, Richard comforted him.

"Don't worry, your godfather will have no problems, and he won't be arrested again."
