This Hogwarts isn't normal.
Chapter 839: The abacus beads hit my face
In the British Magic Department Hall,
In front of the Magic Brothers Fountain.
Percy, who was unable to go to the scene in Italy, was watching the broadcast with his boss Barty Crouch.

The picture displayed by the magic projection is like bringing the Colosseum in Rome. Whether it is the size of the picture, the clarity or the smoothness, it is impeccable.
Due to the work habits he has developed recently, even though it is already time to get off work, Percy still took out his notebook and quickly recorded the many advantages of magic projection on it.
When he just wrote the first word, the picture in the giant light screen changed.
To be precise, it was the light screen in the light screen, the circular light screen projected over the Colosseum in Rome.
A small black dot suddenly appeared under the white background. As the picture was enlarged, everyone saw a rough-looking wooden stick.
It had a few thin branches tied to the end, which looked like a broom.
Yes, it is a flying broom, and it is a flying broom made in 962 AD, and it is also the first flying broom recorded.
It looks like a thick unpolished wooden stick, with a few thin branches tied to the end.
After a close-up shot, a big hand picked it up.
The next scene is a back view of a man in a black robe, riding a broom into the blue sky.
However, when the camera zooms in again, the broom the man is riding is obviously different.
Its surface is not as rough as before, and the branches at the end are more delicate.
The man on the broom stretched out his hand and scratched his butt.
Early flying brooms had no cushions and were not even polished, which was indeed not very friendly to the user's butt.
The man on the broom had been flying at a constant speed, but he suddenly accelerated and left the camera far behind.
But soon, the camera caught up again.
This time the broom was different again.
Its surface has been polished, a soft cushion has been added, and the fineness of the branches at the end is close to that of modern brooms.
The man riding the broom accelerated again, and the camera kept following him.
Through the background that gradually became blurred from clear, the magic projection brought an immersive sense of speed to the wizards watching the broadcast.
And the feeling of sitting on the scene was even more shocking.
The audience only needed to raise their heads slightly to see the huge circular light curtain.
Although its picture was divided into 4 parts, the visual impact it brought was far from comparable to the broadcast.
It took less than 5 minutes for the flying broom to go from personal manufacturing to standardized mass production. Wayne Enterprises fully described how it was transformed from self-production and self-use to a commodity through the picture.
Since Percy wrote the first word, his eyes have never left the giant light curtain of the magic projection.
His mouth was slightly open, and he watched the broom in the picture change constantly with surprise.
Oak Arrow 79 in 1879, Moon Dream in 1901, Sweep One Star in 1926, Sweep 140 in 1929, Sweep Two Star in 1934...
It was not until the birth of Comet 180 in 1938 that the situation of Sweep Company's monopoly was ended.
Then the Wind and Fire Flow in 1940, the Swift in 1952, the Meteor in 1955, and the Nimbus 1000 in 1967 all made their debuts.
But no matter how the flying broom developed, the man riding the broom still did not look directly at the camera.
Finally, the Firebolt appeared.
Its top performance display spread throughout the magic world around the world.
Even in the Middle East, which was not interested in flying brooms, many wizards saw the sense of speed it brought.
When Percy was guessing what the second show would be, the man riding the broom in the picture fell from the sky.
He stuck the Firebolt on the lawn, and the camera focused on the black boots under his feet.
With just a light stomp of his foot, his boots turned into long boots with a silver metallic luster.
The next second, the man actually floated up slowly.
The camera zoomed in again, to the sole of the metal boot that seemed to be ejecting air.
After a distorted picture fluctuation, the man actually accelerated and flew into the sky, leaving only a lonely Firebolt sticking on the lawn.
The giant light screen went completely black, and a white "W" icon suddenly appeared in the middle.
This is the registered trademark of Wayne Enterprises, and there is a line of small words under it.
"ββFlying boots are coming soon."
Percy opened his mouth again.
This is not a show, it is clearly a GG for the world.
Wayne Enterprises' abacus beads have hit the faces of wizards. Is it really good to be so simple and crude?
But the flying boots are really handsome, and judging from the performance of the final picture, its speed should not be slower than the Firebolt.
Percy glanced at his boss next to him, and then looked around at the Ministry of Magic employees around him.
After a brief moment of dissatisfaction, everyone was obviously quite interested in flying boots.
Flying has always been the dream of mankind, whether it is wizards or Muggles.
If there is a pair of boots that can realize the dream by wearing them on your feet, I believe it will definitely attract those wizards who hate flying brooms.
And the last Firebolt that GG left alone on the lawn, does it mean that flying boots will replace it?
Percy took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
This guess was really terrible, and he felt that Vincent's idea should not be so crazy.
But out of a habit he had recently developed, he still wrote down the pros and cons of flying broomsticks and flying boots in his notebook.
The picture of the giant light curtain changed again at this time, and it was a symbol of the magic government.
Under each logo was the logo of their national Quidditch team.
The horizontally arranged logos were finally fixed on the teams of the 27 European countries, and then Transylvania and neighboring Denmark were enlarged, and finally occupied the entire light screen.
Percy raised his head, looked at it for a moment and then guessed that it should be the process of the preliminary round.
There are a total of 27 magic governments in Europe, which means that one team will have a bye in the first round of qualifiers.
However, the two teams are determined by drawing lots on the same day, which means that no one knows which team will get a bye until the last day.
Seeing that there was nothing interesting to see, he continued to write and draw in his notebook.
Broomsticks take up too much space, but flying boots can be turned into everyday boots.
When the speed is consistent, I believe...
With a "swish" sound, Percy's quill suddenly scratched the notebook paper upwards.
Then there was a "bang" sound, and something hit him on the left side of his face.
"Sorry sorry..."
Percy pushed aside the thick papers that hit his face and saw a big, chubby face.
He suppressed his anger and said, "I'm fine, Jorkins, just be more careful next time."
The person who accidentally bumped into him was a fat female employee.
She was holding a thick stack of documents. She was about thirty years old. She was wearing an old-fashioned wizard's robe and looked reckless.
"Okay, I'll pay attention." Jorkins threw the document towards Percy again as he turned to leave.
This time he was prepared, leaned back slightly and dodged.
Muggle fighting is still very useful. If I hadn't learned it at the Court of Owls Club for several years, it would be difficult to avoid this sudden attack.
It was just a small interlude. Percy glanced at the boss next to him and found that he quickly looked back at him.
Bertha Jorkins was notoriously clueless in the British Ministry of Magic. She didn't know how to read things, and she was even more reckless in doing things.
To be able to treat such a terrible colleague so generously, no matter how harsh your boss is, he must not be able to find a single fault.
Percy couldn't help but secretly feel happy.
His boss, Barty Crouch, is a truly selfless and ruthless man who dares to put his own son in Azkaban without trial like Sirius.
In order to improve the environment at home and no longer have to endure the cynicism of Malfoy's group of wealthy wizards, he must now manage his image to be watertight.
