New Professor at Hogwarts

After waiting for the officials from the Ministry of Magic to pass by, most people began to live and cook in front of their tents. Xia Ran whispered: "By the way, Bill and Charlie, we will go to the other side of the camp together later to discuss something."

He was talking about what happened with Professor McGonagall earlier.

"Okay!" Brothers Bill and Charlie nodded. They have also joined the Order of the Phoenix. After all, they are both adult wizards who have graduated for many years, and their magic values ​​are not weak.

Fred and George immediately raised their hands and said, "We're going together!"

Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny also moved.

"Nonsense!" Mr. Weasley reprimanded and said, "You can just go to school and study in peace. These matters are not something you can interfere with now..." Seeing Fred and George, he wanted to open his mouth to argue again, and continued: "Wait for you. Let’s talk about it when we become adults!”

Several people had no choice but to hang their heads in depression and compete with the grilled sausages in their hands.

"Dad, Xia Ran, who do you think that person is?" Charlie said suddenly.

Xia Ran turned around and looked over, only to see a man striding towards him. He was very eye-catching. He said hello to other wizards from time to time on the way. He smiled broadly and seemed to be very popular.

"Haha!" Mr. Weasley said with a smile, "The most important person at the moment - Ludo Bagman!"

Several children also hurriedly looked over and saw a majestic man striding over. He was wearing a long Quidditch robe with a wide yellow and black stripe, and a splash of ink on his chest. Holding a huge wasp, it seems that his former strong physique has begun to decline.

The robe stretched tightly over his big belly. Just imagine that when he played Quidditch for England, his belly must not have gained weight!

Ludo Bagman's nose was flat, as if it had been broken by a Bludger in a Quidditch match, but his round blue eyes and short blond hair, And his red face made him look like an overly large boy.

"Hoo ho!" Ludo Bagman shouted happily. He walked like a naughty child, jumping up and down, as if there were springs under his feet. It was obvious that he was in a state of extreme excitement.

"Arthur, old man! Oh, Xia Ran is here too. I heard that you went to Hogwarts to become a professor. Congratulations!" Bagman came to the side of the bonfire and said breathlessly, "What a beautiful weather. Ah! Look, there are blue skies and white clouds, right? The weather is really great. Where can you find such weather? There must be no clouds at night... The preparations for the entire Quidditch World Cup are in good order... I basically have nothing to do. !”

He is the Director of the Department of Physical Education and Sports at the Ministry of Magic.

"Excuse me... Director, give way!" Suddenly a group of haggard-looking Ministry of Magic officials hurried past. There were signs in the distance that someone was playing with magic fire, and purple flames jumped up. More than twenty people feet tall!

"Ah!" Bagman quickly moved to the side of the road.

The Ministry of Magic officials passing by finally seemed to cast resentful glances at him.

He shook hands with Xia Ran and Mr. Weasley.

"Ah, yes." Mr. Weasley said with a smile, "These are some of my children..."

Bagman looked at Harry and Hermione suspiciously.

"They are not redheads...Arthur, let me ask you...could it be..."

"Of course, of course they are not!" Mr. Weasley introduced, "These red-haired ones are my children, Fred...ah, no - George, I'm sorry - that's Fred... …” He had the wrong twin.

"And Bill, Charlie, Ron, my daughter Ginny, this is Ron's friend, Hermione Granger and Harry Potter."

"Harry Potter?!" Bagman suddenly exclaimed, and his eyes immediately glanced at the scar on Harry's forehead.

Harry had a look of helplessness. Although he was used to this, he still felt helpless every time he encountered it. After all, people paid attention to his lightning scar, which would also cause trouble to him.

Mr. Weasley continued: "Come, let me introduce you all. This is Ludo Bagman. You know who he is. It is thanks to him that we got such a good ticket... "

Bagman smiled broadly and waved his hand, as if to say it was nothing.

"Want to place a bet on the game, Arthur? Xia Ran, which team do you think will win? Who will score the first goal?" Bagman asked eagerly, jingling the pockets of his yellow and black robe. "I've convinced Roddy Pontene to bet me that Bulgaria will score the first goal - I gave him very high odds because I Considering Ireland's number three forward is the best I've seen in years - little Agatha Timms put up half her Eel Farm stock on a bet that the game would last a week!"

It turned out that he was looking for gambling friends.

"Oh, okay then." Mr. Weasley seemed to be taken aback and said slowly, "Let me think about it... Well, I'll bet Ireland to win for a gold galleons, okay?"

"One gold Galleon?" Ludo Bagman was obviously a little disappointed, but he quickly regained his interest, "Very good, very good, willing to place a bet... Xia Ran, do you want to place a bet?" "

He looked at Xia Ran expectantly.

Xia Ran had no intention of gambling, and he knew that Ludo Bagman was a big gambler. He disappeared in the original time and space because he could not pay off his debts, and avoided the angry creditors for a period of time.

"No, I'm not interested in this." Xia Ran said without interest.

"Okay, okay." Bagman had no choice but to regretfully accept one of Mr. Weasley's gold galleons. "Is there anyone else willing to bet?"

"They're too young to gamble," said Mr. Weasley. "Molly wouldn't want to..."

"We put down thirty-seven gold galleons, fifteen silver Sickles, and three copper Knuts!" Fred immediately interrupted his father and said, and he and George quickly took out their money, " Bet on Ireland to win! But Viktor Krum will catch the Snitch! Oh, and by the way, we'll also have a fake wand!"

"Fake wand?" Bagman took the fake wand from Fred's hand. The wand squeaked loudly and turned into a little rubber ***. Mr. Bagman laughed, his child-like face full of tears. excited.

"That's great! That's great! I haven't seen such a realistic fake thing in many years! I'll buy it for five gold galleons!"

"Children," Mr. Weasley said in a low voice, "I don't want you to gamble - and Molly would not want to see you gambling - this is all your savings..."

"Don't be a spoiler, Arthur!" Ludo Bagman said gruffly, rattling the money in his pockets with excitement, "They have grown up and know what they want! Do you think Ireland will win, but Klum can catch the Snitch? No way, kids, no way... Well, I'm going to give you great odds... and add that funny dick to the mix. The fake wand was exchanged for five gold galleons, so shall we..."

At this time Xia Ran spoke.
