Hogwarts behind-the-scenes big boss

Moriarty won three games, completed the "Prepare for the World Cup (1)" task issued by the system, and gained 100,000 points and ten years of magic.

At the same time, he also received a letter from Ludo.

"Dear Mr. Moriarty, after watching Slytherin's three games, Captain Roman spoke highly of you. He spoke very highly of you, Jericho Branch, and the Slytherin team you led!

Roman even came up with a bold idea: He said that he found that Hogwarts has too many talented players, and with a little experience, you can be on your own.

So why can't you form a team?

Roman claims that he can find a perfect opponent for you, yes, that’s right, you may have guessed it, how about the England national team?

Professional players led by Roman compete against the Hogwarts luxury dream team!

What do you think, Mr. Moriarty?

Your loyal companion, Ludo Bagman."

Moriarty put down the letter and smiled.

Playing Quidditch with the national team has only advantages and no disadvantages. His star-making plan can start in advance.

Moriarty agreed to Roman's proposal and wrote a reply, agreeing to start this dream showdown on Friday afternoon.

Little did he know that Ludo was overjoyed after receiving his letter. He picked up his quill and started writing to Roman.

"Dear Roman, our captain.

After the Slytherin game, Moriarty Slytherin praised you very much!

He told me that he specially formed a luxurious Hogwarts dream team.

He gathered the top players from four academies under his command - and yes, he claimed he had a bold idea:

Before the start of the World Cup, an excellent warm-up opponent was found for the England national team.

Yes, when you see this, you should have thought, how about the Hogwarts Dream Team?

What do you think, Captain Roman?

Your loyal companion, Ludo Bagman."

After writing the last word, Ludo put down his quill, knowing that Roman would definitely agree to the competition - Roman was a conceited wizard.

Ludo looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction, a triumphant smile appeared on his lips, and his true nature as a treacherous businessman was fully revealed.

"Two letters with roughly the same content resolved a dream showdown. Simple!

Haha, Moriarty, Roman, it's not as difficult as you think, right? Everything is a routine.

Okay, okay, I have to go to the Daily Prophet office quickly and ask them to work overtime to publish this news!"

The smile on Ludo's face did not stop. He mailed the letter, then grabbed a handful of Floo powder and headed to Diagon Alley.

Seeing the sky darkening outside the window, he couldn't help but sigh that he didn't even have a house elf to run errands for him.

"I'm going to make a big profit this time! Let's open a gambling market first, and buy a house elf immediately after making the first money, hum!"

When Ludo arrived in Diagon Alley, he received a reply from Roman. As expected, Roman agreed to the game.

However, the letter stated that Roman's teammates would not be back for another week and hoped that the game would be postponed to Friday next week.

Ludo acted as a echo box, and this time he explained the situation to Moriarty in a practical way, and agreed on the exact time of the game with both parties.

November 11, 1989, Friday at nine o'clock in the morning.

Once the news was announced, the British wizarding community responded enthusiastically.

Quidditch's status in the hearts of wizards is equivalent to football, the largest sport in the Muggle world.

If the national team represents the dreams of most wizards, then the Hogwarts academy team represents young youth.

A piece of news about the competition once again awakened wizards' nostalgia for their youth and touched the softest piece of heaven in their hearts, which was their love for Hogwarts.

The wizards discovered that the incident involving Moriarty being accused by the French Ministry of Magic had just subsided and they saw Moriarty's name in the Daily Prophet again.

But Merlin bless you.

It's much better to report about Moriarty playing Quidditch than to report about Moriarty hitting someone.

So people habitually shift the topic to the Quidditch game, including a series of issues such as players on both sides, spectators, referees, playing fields, game brooms, etc.

In fact, Ludo has traveled between Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic countless times in recent times. He and the school and officials have been discussing the above issues.

After many discussions and negotiations, Ludo also obtained the consent of the players from both sides and published the game rules in the newspaper.

Wizards gathered in groups in Diagon Alley. They bought the latest Daily Prophet with great anticipation and started reading it.

"1. Competition time: 9 a.m. on November 11, 1989.

2. Competition location: Hogwarts Stadium.

3. Match referee: Peter Rees, a British referee who is well-known in Europe and was recruited for the World Cup.

3. In view of the nature of the competition, which is a warm-up match and a guidance match, this competition is not open to spectators.

Hogwarts students can use their wands to enter the stands to watch the game, and the Daily Prophet will record it in real time.

4…

Damn number three!"

The wizards threw away the newspapers angrily, and they loudly asked why they couldn't go to watch the game.

There was no official response to this.

When the news reached Hogwarts, Moriarty sneered.

He was currently holding a meeting with the players in the classroom occupied by the QC club. The players raised their heads when they heard the sneers.

"The Ministry of Magic is so scared of me that they don't even dare to let the public watch the game, in order to prevent the news that the national team lost the game from spreading!"

Moriarty said to his players, Jericho, Leon, Tonks, Marcus, Charlie... They are almost the best players since the founding of Hogwarts.

Now they have gathered under Moriarty. With them and Moriarty's mind, Moriarty is confident of defeating Roman's national team!

Apparently, the players thought so, too.

They leaned back on the soft chairs easily. Jericho held a pudding popsicle in his mouth and said carelessly: "Are you not afraid of the Ministry of Magic? Look at what you have done in the past two years.

Last year's novel with Mr. Lockhart, Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets, this year's bet, wand set, and the Eiffel Tower!

What's one thing that doesn't scare the Ministry of Magic? Good fellow, of course those politicians have to be on guard against you!"

Leon and Marcus laughed. The deeper the Ministry of Magic's fear of Moriarty, the more stable their family's status will be!

Tonks patted the table: "Okay, okay, what we should focus on is not the Ministry of Magic, but the national team, okay?

Haven't you noticed that the specific names of the players on both sides have not been announced?

This means we don’t know who Roman will send into battle!”

"Well, that's really bad news." Charlie said with a smile, "But there is also good news at the same time."

He deliberately hung them up without saying a word. When everyone looked at him, Charlie cleared his throat: "Roman will definitely start, he took away a spot, so we still have six unknown candidates.

"

Tonks raised her hand and threw a copy of "Quidditch Teams of Britain and Ireland" at Charlie's face, making a crisp "snap" sound.

"It's full of nonsense." Tonks clapped her hands in disgust.

Jericho and Marcus burst into laughter: "Senior sister is domineering."

Charlie touched his nose, looked at Moriarty and said: "Sir, I ask you to carefully consider your romantic partner. At least you can't have a girl like Tonks. She is not suitable for dating."

"Who said I'm not suitable?" Tonks glared at Charlie, turned to look at Moriarty with a dimple-like smile, and said softly: "Little boy~ you..."

But she was interrupted before she finished her words. The professor's door was pushed open by a force, and a thick stack of parchment floated into the classroom. Lilith followed behind and walked in with brisk steps.

When she saw the scene in the classroom, she blinked her eyes and said innocently: "Did I come at the wrong time?"

Tonks rolled her eyes, not only was it not the right time, I suspected you were eavesdropping outside, and you deliberately broke in when I got to the point!

"It doesn't matter, what are you doing?" Moriarty started talking to Lilith. He knocked on the parchment half a person's height and looked at Lilith doubtfully.

"Ahem," Lilith raised her little face and said somewhat complacently: "Listen up, listen up~

I know that the Ministry of Magic has not announced your opponents, so I specially asked Uncle Barty to find the information of the national team players! It is the information of every player~

Hey hey, what are you doing!"

Jericho waited for the boy to not hear what she had to say, so he rushed over, snatched away the information, and started reading with his head down!

Lilith curled her lips, sighed, and said to Moriarty: "Well, it seems you don't welcome me, so I'm leaving. Finally, I wish you victory - don't forget to invite me to the celebration party."
