Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

640. Chapter 636 Bagman and Goblin

    "My sister said that she recently went to the lake for a winter swim!"Gabrielle said, looking at Krum diving into the lake, "It's weird, she used to never have this habit. Is there anything in this lake?!"

    Who knows?

    When he heard Gabrielle, Hermione looked at Krum thoughtfully and felt what he had caught.

    Two consecutive champions ran to the lake to practice winter swimming, which sounded unusual.

    "You said that the second competition will be related to the lake, let the champion sneak into the lake…"She told me:

    No way!Ron said directly, "Unless they are crazy, let us go there!"

    "It’s cold to nothing, but there is a giant squid in the lake!"

    Ivan persuaded Hermione to persuade two words, and Harry and Ron didn't even think about it.

    They did not agree with Hermione's, and everyone's attention quickly shifted to other places.

    Because I will meet Sirius in a while, Sirius will also help Ivan practice Apparition.

    Although Ivan is very reassured to everyone, this matter is illegal in itself, and the best people know are as few as possible.

    So, when it comes to Hogsmeade, a few of them will act separately!

    Colin accompanied Gabrielle, Ginny and two other girls to Honeydukes Sweetshop. Gabrielle recently gave these sweets as a Christmas gift to her classmates at Beauxbatons, which is very popular. This time, she is going to buy a lot of candy for them to bring back.

    As for Ron, he wants to have lunch with Lavender, but it's not yet time.

    There was also more than half an hour from the appointment with Sirius, and Harry proposed to sit in the Three Broomsticks tavern first.

    The pub was as crowded as usual, and the four of them bought a few bottles of Butterbeer from Madam Rosmerta and found a corner.

    "Look, is he never going to work in the office?"Hermione whispered and pushed Ivan.

    She pointed to the mirror behind the bar, and Ivan saw the mirror reflecting Ludo Bagman.

    He sat in a dim corner with a group of Goblin, pressing his voice down and saying something to the Goblin.

    The Goblins all crossed their arms, and they looked like an imposing manner, shaking their heads from time to time.

    Every time the Goblins shake their heads, Bagman's face becomes ugly.

    "Things seem a bit abnormal!"Harry said, looking at Bagman in the mirror, "I think, today is the weekend, there is no Triwizard Tournament activity, no referee, how can he appear here?"

    Bagman's expression was tense and he kept looking around and seemed to be looking for a route to escape.

    Then, his eyes lit up and saw Ron sitting in the corner.

    He approached the past and whispered a few words to the Goblin, quietly pointing at Ivan and their four fingers.

    Goblin squinted at the dark eyes and stared at Ron silently, then nodded.

    "Complete, wait a moment, I will go to the child to say two words!"Bagman said that the baby's face was smiling again.

    He stood up and hurried toward Ron.

    "Children, I didn't expect to meet you here. It's a coincidence. How have you been recently?!"He said, walked to Ron, "Ron, can I tell you a few words?"

    "Well, of course!"Ron looked at him doubtfully, followed Bagman to the end of the bar away from Madam Rosmerta.

    They stayed there for more than a minute, and Ron's expression looked a little surprised, and there was a hint of joy.

    Ivan took a sip of Butterbeer. It seems that Bagman must bet with Goblin in order to pay back the money. He put all his chips on Ron and bet that Ron can win the Triwizard Tournament, when all the gambling debts he owes are written off. .

    Bagman is telling Ron about the secret of the golden egg, and Ron has accepted his help.

    As the referee and director of the Department of Magical Games and Sports, he actually took the initiative to violate the charter, cheating what is really the tradition of the Triwizard Tournament.

    "What are they talking about?"Hermione said, drinking Butterbeer with a small mouth, "Those Goblin doesn't look friendly?!"

    "Probably about the game."Ivan said that he took out a piece of dense parchment from his arms.

    He doesn't care about it, and he is going to use this time to review the main points of Apparition.

    “Apparition looks cool and easy to use!”Harry said, staring at Ivan's parchment. "I also want Sirius to pass the exam for me, so I don't have to wait until adulthood to use this spell."

    "No, Harry!"Hermione was shocked. "It's illegal to do so, and it's very dangerous. Because Apparition fails to lose your life, there are a lot of people every year. You don't have as much magic power as Ivan, you can fully master this spell…. .."

    "I know, I just said it!"Harry said.

    As Hermione said, the Apparition spell is not something that can be used to make jokes.

    Failure to use often means that the body is separated, meaning death, so the Ministry of Magic will take the test.

    Ivan has a lot of Apparition experience, but it's still a little nervous for the first time I use this spell myself.

    The quill in his hand kept writing and drawing on the parchment, marking the relevant points.

    Apparition is divided into two usage modes, one for fast movement over long distances and the other for teleporting in a duel.

    Although the spells are the same, the magic power and skill used are not the same.

    Harry and Hermione put their heads together and looked at the things Ivan wrote, and wanted to know more details.

    On the other hand, Ron and Bagman's conversation was quickly interrupted because Fred and George happened to be at this time.

    The two of them just walked into the pub and saw the Bagman in front of the bar.

    "Hello, Mr. Bagman! ”Fred hurried over and said happily, "Can we ask for a drink?"

    "Well, no more."Bagman said, patted Ron's shoulder. "No, thank you, child…"

    Fred and George seem to be very disappointed with Bagman, ready to say something, to get back their money.

    "I have to hurry."He said, "I am very happy to see you all. Good luck, Ron, don't forget what I said. ”

    He hurried out of the tavern, and Goblin stood up from the chair and walked behind him.

    Fred and George hesitated and followed.

    "What does he want?"Ron came back and sat down, Harry asked.

    NothingRon shook his head and didn't say what Bagman told him.

    He is hesitant to try this method, although it sounds ridiculous, but he has no other way!
