Jingyan of HP

Chapter 65 The Man in the Cloak and Dumbledore's Disorder

After Cheng Jingyan returned to the tent, he was surprised to find that only Snape was sitting in the living room reading a book, and the others were nowhere to be seen. He couldn't help but asked in doubt, "Where are they?"

Snape replied without looking up, "Going out to play."

"Well, Sev..." Cheng Jingyan leaned over to kiss him, and said teasingly, "I met George and Fred just now, and they called me Mrs. Snape. Do you feel anything?"

Snape glanced at him contemptuously, and said flatly, "Of course."

Cheng Jingyan laughed out loud.

After the three people who went out to play came back, his dinner was ready.

Dumbledore wore a green cap supporting the Irish team, which made Cheng Jingyan laugh violently when he saw him.

The old man was terrified by his strange gaze, and kept asking him why.

In the end, he couldn't hold back anymore, so he leaned next to him and whispered the meaning of the hat, and then asked: "Albus, you seem to have been single all these years, right? Could it be that you used to..."

Dumbledore tossed his hat aside angrily, "Who said that! He wouldn't..." Then he froze immediately.

"Who is 'he'?" Cheng Jingyan was immediately interested and asked gossip.If he heard correctly, the old man just said 'he' instead of 'she', tsk tsk tsk...

But no matter how much he asked, Dumbledore remained silent, and just kept his head buried in eating.

Not long after dinner, somewhere in the distance of the woods came the sound of a low-pitched gong. Immediately, thousands of red and green lanterns bloomed brightly on the trees, illuminating the way to the arena.

A group of people packed up their things and walked into the woods along the path illuminated by the lantern.The two children walked among several adults holding hands, chattering all the time, not to mention how excited they were.

They walked in the woods for 10 minutes, while listening to the loud chatter and jokes of the people around them, even Cheng Jingyan, who had no interest in Quidditch, was a little excited by the frenzied atmosphere.The stream finally came out on the other side of the woods when the shadow of a huge gymnasium loomed over them.At present, only a part of the magnificent golden wall around the arena can be seen, but according to Cheng Jingyan's visual inspection, the space inside the stadium is definitely not small.

Snape booked a first-class ticket, and the female Ministry of Magic staff at the entrance pointed out that their box was on the top floor, and the group followed the crowd up the stairs covered with purple carpets on both sides of the gymnasium.Finally, at the top of the stairs, I came to a small box, located at the highest point of the gymnasium, and facing the golden goal post.There are twenty or so purple and gilded chairs, arranged in two rows.

As soon as Cheng Jingyan entered, he found his two red-haired friends.After saying hello to them, I sat in the row behind them.

One hundred thousand wizards are taking their seats one after another, and those seats surround the oval gymnasium and are arranged upwards in a ladder shape.Everything here is shrouded in a mysterious golden light, which seems to come from the stadium itself.From their commanding vantage point, the playing field looked smooth as velvet.On either side of the field were three pitching hoops, fifty feet high; to their right, almost at eye level, was a huge blackboard with gold letters flashing on it, as if a Unseen giant hands scrawled and erased words on the blackboard.

Cheng Jingyan took a closer look and found that it was an advertisement.All this was almost the same as what he saw in his own world in his previous life, and he suddenly felt a familiar trance.

"Yan, what's the matter?" Snape who was sitting next to him asked in a low voice.

He recovered and looked over, seeing the worry in his lover's eyes, he couldn't help but hold his hand and smiled in relief, "I'm fine, I just think it's quite spectacular."

In the next half an hour, the box gradually filled up with people.After Minister of Magic Fudge brought in the Bulgarian Ministry of Magic, a middle-aged man with a goatee walked in with a man in a black cloak and sat in the last two seats in their row.

Cheng Jingyan glanced curiously at the man in the cloak, but couldn't see his face at all, only a few golden strands of hair hanging down from the hood.

Snape noticed his gaze, and explained in a low voice: "The man with the goatee is Durmstrang's headmaster, Karkaroff, who used to be a Death Eater. The person next to him couldn't tell who it was. , but we'd better keep an eye out, if it's one of those who escaped, we'll be in trouble, and they're likely to find him."

Cheng Jingyan nodded, and waved over the two children to Dumbledore who was sitting on the other side, and pointed to the man in the cloak secretly.

Dumbledore smiled back knowingly, but didn't look away, just put his hand into the wide sleeve of his robe.

At this moment, Minister of Sports Ludo Bagman rushed into the box, and after obtaining Fudge's consent, he drew out his wand, pointed to his throat and said, "The voice is loud!"

Then his words thundered through the packed stadium.His voice echoed above people's heads, loudly spreading to every corner of the stands.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome! Welcome to watch the final of the 422nd Quidditch World Cup!"

The audience burst into cheers and applause.Thousands of flags were waved at the same time, accompanied by the chaotic national anthem, the scene was really lively.On the blackboard across from them, the last line of advertising (Bibi's Beans - every bite is an adventure!) has been erased and now reads: Bulgaria: 0, Ireland: 0.

"Okay, without further ado, allow me to introduce... the mascot of the Bulgarian national team!"

On the right side of the stand was a neat bright red square, and loud cheers erupted at this moment.

A group of veela danced and slid into the arena.

Most of the men in the box showed obsessive expressions on their faces, and the youngest boy in the Weasley family in the front row even stepped over the fence with one foot, but fortunately his mother stopped him in time.Cheng Jingyan and his group were not affected at all. With Dumbledore, Snape and Snape's advanced level of magic, they would not be so easily confused, and Cheng Jingyan's attention was all on his lover, and Harry was another Naturally, Draco is so narcissistic, of course it doesn't matter.

The veela performance ended quickly, and the arena was filled with roars of dissatisfaction, and people did not want to see them exit.But soon, the Irish mascot Leprechauns sprinkled gold coins to dispel their anger.

Harry was hit on the head by the gold coins sprinkled by the leprechauns. He muttered and picked one up for a closer look, and then threw it out angrily, "It's so light! It must not be real gold! It hurt me so much !"

Draco leaned over tiredly and rubbed his sore head.The two children met and chatted.

But soon, Ludo Bagman began to introduce players from the Irish and Bulgarian teams.The two children immediately became excited, and searched for the figure of Viktor Krum they admired with the binoculars.

The game begins.Everyone began to focus on watching the wonderful performance of the players.

Because he was thinking about the man in the cloak, Cheng Jingyan glanced at it from the corner of his eye from time to time.The man sat not far from them, only six people away from him, and even closer to Dumbledore, only three people away.Just when he looked over there again, he was surprised to find that Dumbledore's body was trembling slightly. Although the expression on his face was still calm, his blue eyes were wide open, showing nothing. Looking forward in focus, the back is straightened, and it looks very wrong.And the man in the cloak was facing them, his face was shrouded in the shadow of the hood, revealing only a perfectly lined chin and a few strands of golden hair.

Cheng Jingyan pushed Snape beside him suspiciously, motioning him to look over.

Snape glanced at it briefly, and asked in a low voice, "Why don't you sit over and ask?"

Cheng Jingyan shook his head, "No, that person is paying attention to us, so don't act rashly at this time." He glanced at Dumbledore worriedly, "Albus looks so strange, even if that person is really a Death Eater, he The reaction is not so big, right? It looks like it's about to collapse..."

With a sullen face, Snape quietly took out his wand and stood on guard.

Although the two had been hanging on their hearts, nothing happened during the entire game.Until finally the Irish team won the match, the man in the cloak remained motionless with his face turned in Dumbledore's direction, and Dumbledore was still sitting tense.

Harry and Draco were completely unaware of the strangeness of the adults, and were still excitedly discussing how Viktor Krum finally caught the golden snitch.

"If you ask me, although the Bulgarian team failed to win, they are not ashamed with Krum's wonderful performance." Draco said straightforwardly.

"Yes, yes, his last fake move is really cool!" Harry clenched his fist excitedly, "I must work hard to learn that move!"

"I said, we played bravely," said a heavy voice not far from Harry's front row.He poked his head and saw that it was the Minister of Magic of Bulgaria.

"You speak English!" said Fudge, irritated, "but you keep me gesturing here all day!"

"Hey, that's fun," said the Bulgarian minister, shrugging.

Harry couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Now, with the Irish players walking around the field in the company of their mascots, the Quidditch World Cup trophy is delivered to the top box!" Bagman said in a bell-like voice.

People were suddenly blinded by a bright light, and the top box was magically illuminated, so that all the spectators in the stands could see the situation inside the box.Everyone squinted at the entrance to see two panting wizards carrying a large golden cup into the box and handing it to Cornelius Fudge.Fudge was still looking unhappy because he had been gesticulating all day trying to get the Bulgarians to understand him.

One by one, the Bulgarians entered between the two rows of seats in the box, and Bagman called out everyone's name as they took turns shaking hands with their minister and Fudge.Krum was last in line, looking very embarrassed, with two dark circles under his eyes standing out on his blood-stained face.He still had the Snitch in his hand.When Bagman called out Klum's name, the entire stadium gave him a deafening, deafening ovation.

Harry and Draco stared at him wildly, as if they were going to jump up and ask him for an autograph the next moment.But in the end, under Snape's cold eyes, he gave up this idea dejectedly.

When Fudge presented the championship trophy to the Irish team who came next, they left the box and rode brooms around the field.

Cheng Jingyan was surprised to find that the man in the cloak had disappeared at some point.And Dumbledore slumped on the chair with a weak face, his originally straight back was a little bent, and his expression was unprecedentedly dazed.

The author has something to say: Everyone can guess why the old devil suddenly escaped from prison at this time...
