Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 459: Impossible Gambling

“Arthur, old man!” He came to the campfire. "What a beautiful day, isn't it? Wonderful. Where can I find it in this weather? I predict there will be no clouds at night, the whole preparation is organized and nothing to do! ”

Behind him, a group of disgraced Ministry of Magic officials rushed by.

There are signs in the distance that someone is playing with magic fires, purple sparks rising more than twenty feet tall.

Everyone doubts his predictions that it might rain tonight...

Behind Mr. Weasley, Percy hurried forward and reached out.

“This is my son Percy, who just went to work in the Ministry of Magic!” Mr. Weasley smiled, "Sitting there is Sirius Black, then Fred, George, Bill, Charlie, Ron, and my daughter Ginny, whom you've all met before, Ivan Mason, Hermione Granger, and Harry Potter. ”

He introduced everyone to Bagman, who was obviously a little surprised when he saw Sirius.

The expression on his face was complicated and looked more like he was scared.

Sirius said Bagman had been tried for providing confidential information to the Death Eater Lukwood.

During that year's trial, they had brief contact.

Seems to recall his past experience, making him constrained by Sirius.

Bagman looked slightly surprised when he heard Harry's name next.

“All right, all right, you guys want to bet on the game?" Bagman said eagerly.

After the introduction, he clanked the pockets of the yellow and black robe straight at everyone and seemed to contain a lot of gold coins.

That seems to be the main purpose of his presence here.

“I've convinced Roddy Pountain to bet with me that Bulgaria would score the first ball, and I gave him a high odds because I took into account Ireland's number three forward, which is the best I've seen in years. Agatha Tims, Jr., pressed half of her equine farm, betting it would last a week. ”

“I'll make a Gallon bet Ireland wins, okay?” Mr. Weasley hesitated to say.

“A gallon?!” Bagman was a little disappointed, but soon recovered, “good. Anyone else want to bet? ”

He looked forward to Sirius, but Sirius ignored him at all.

Bagman, embarrassed to touch his nose, did not dare to say more, his eyes shifted to others.

“They're too young to gamble.” Mr. Weasley hastily said.

“Forty-six gallons, thirty-two sikhos, eight nuts!” Fred said he and George quickly paid, "betting Ireland won, but Viktor Krum would catch the golden thief. ”

Evan's previous aid funds and proceeds from the sale of products in the store were confiscated by Mrs. Weasley, nearly 200 gold gallons.

Mrs. Weasley said she was going to give these back to the twins and that Ivan was not allowed to give Fred and George money.

But it wasn't hard for the two of them, who had asked Lee Jordan to help them sell a lot of joke merchandise when the business was hottest.

Hogwarts Wizard owls order, mostly through this method.

The two of them just went out to collect the bill.

When they got back, they secretly told Ivan about it.

Fred and George intend to use the money as a restart fund and the Higashiyama rebound.

Didn't expect that they would take it all out here and participate in a gamble that was simply impossible to win.

Ivan did not think Fred and George would be mistaken, but he expressed doubts about the character of Rudo Bagman.

“Kids!” Mr. Weasley lowered his voice and said, "I don't want you gambling, your mother...”

“Don't spoil it, Arthur!” Rudo Bagman shouted out loud, excitedly clanging the money in his pocket, "and they were big enough to know what they wanted! You think Ireland will win, but Krum will catch the Golden Thief? Impossible, boys, impossible, I give you a high odds...”

Rudo Bagman quickly pulled out his notebook and quill and wrote down the names of his twin brothers on the grass.

Mr. Weasley watched helplessly, unable to stop what was happening.

“George, calm down. You can't win!” Ivan gently pulled George's robe.

“Rest assured, we have our share!” George said indifferently.

“The two of us have carefully analyzed all previous games, Viktor Krum..." Fred said.

“I mean, even if you win, this guy might not give you the money!” Ivan raised his voice and said impolitely.

Obviously, Bagman also heard what he said and his face became a little embarrassed, but passed away in a flash.

“Kids, kids, you can go out and ask about my reputation. Old Bagman's always willing to gamble!” Bagman shouted, "I can assure you in my capacity as Director of Sports at the Ministry of Magic, but I have to say, you two are too unlikely to win! ”

Now that it's said, Ivan doesn't say anything anymore.

Let Fred and George buy a lesson and when they don't have the money, they'll know how bad gambling is.

Hopefully they will remember that in the future, that is never to gamble.

After handing Fred the signed voucher parchment, Bagman turned to Mr. Weasley, “Arthur, would you do me a favor? I've been looking for Buddy Crouch, that Bulgarian officer of mine, who's been giving us a hard time, and I don't understand a word of what he's saying. Buddy will fix this. He speaks about 150 languages. ”

“Mr. Crouch speaks 200 languages!” Percy was thrilled to say, "Including mermaids, turkeys, and trolls...”

Apparently, everyone thinks Percy's bragging.

George learned more about the troll, snoring and making everyone laugh hahaha.

Percy was the only one expressing dissatisfaction, but ignored George.

When Bagman sat down in front of the campfire and prepared for a cup of tea, the topic shifted to Pertha Jokins.

The witch has been missing for months, but nobody cares.

Especially in view of the current state of the Albanian forest, she is afraid that it is rare.

With Dumbledore bringing Ivan and Sirius back, what happened in the remains of the Horseman has been revealed.

At the initiative of Dumbledore, the International Union of Wizards will set up a special group to investigate the matter in Albania.

It is questionable, however, how useful this investigative team can be.

That place was originally a trinity of ignorance, and the forces were mixed, and the wizards killed by vampires were all black wizards.

All the bodies became flesh and blood, absorbed by evil gods and indescribable creatures, and now all dissipate.

The final death toll is difficult to ascertain, and no one will admit that Voldemort or demon had ever appeared there without seeing it.
