Chapter 160：

In the crystal ball, the Irish team lifted the trophy.

Tang Mi naturally knew what a huge amount of money this was. You must know that there are not only 50,000 but also 50,000 to 60,000 people watching the Quidditch World Cup every year. Each person paid ten Galleons, which is an astronomical figure.

This needs to be handled by trustworthy people, so Tang Mi took some of his men to the Department of Magical Sports.

You can open it directly and secretly, but it is not necessary.

Appropriate outflow of some profits can save you a lot of trouble.

John wouldn't care about this little money.

It’s just that the application process was very fast. Ludo Bagman, Director of the Department of Magical Sports and Sports, was not very happy when he heard that the opening was about to be made.

He even asked vaguely whether there were any discounts for officials when placing bets.

"Ludo Bagman is a gambler. He has gone bankrupt and is still keen on these things." Tang Mi came back to inform the results. He couldn't help but shook his head and said: "He used to be the best hitter of the Hornets. Now his You can even fit a wine barrel in your belly.”

"Do you know him?" John heard a different meaning.

Tang Mi hesitated for a while and said honestly: "I used to be a fan of the Wimbourne Hornets. At that time, I played for the Ministry of Magic with Oz and Lippi."

Tang Mi felt a little melancholy when he mentioned the past events.

If he hadn't been bitten by a werewolf that time, he might still be struggling for promotion in the Ministry of Magic.

This time when I went to the Ministry of Magic, I also met my former friends, Oz Hilde and Lippi Korbel. They were still stuck in the same place, which made Tang Mi sigh.

John picked up the Ministry of Magic document and looked at it. When he heard this, he said without raising his head: "You can have a good time catching up with your friends. Now you don't need to hide around, right?"

Tang Mi was startled.

After confirming that the documents were correct and putting them away, John looked at Tang Mi who was still in a daze and said speechlessly: "You haven't been looking for them all day, have you?"

Tang Mi was embarrassed. He scratched his head, his face was stunned, and he looked like a shy big boy.

Walking into the fireplace, John glanced at Tang Mi and said, "I don't exclude you from having your own friends, Tang Mi. Everyone has their own social interactions. I don't have to care about everything."

After saying that, blue flames engulfed John.

He disappeared into the office.

That bright face appeared in Tang Mi's mind. They were once inseparable. Before being bitten by the werewolf, he never even thought about being separated.

In the past, he had great ambitions, but now he is wasting his time in the Ministry of Magic.

He made up his mind and walked out of the Johnny Silverhand store without even hearing his subordinates calling him.

Walking to a flower shop, he reluctantly bought a bouquet of flowers.

"We haven't seen each other for so long, why should I bring some gifts." He said to himself.

…

Dudley has been losing weight recently, and John can often see Dudley jogging along Privet Drive.

When passing by the door of his house, Dudley ran as fast as if a dog was chasing him.

Apart from the eyeball Watson found while mowing the lawn a few days ago, John felt that it was also because of his four vicious uncles.

Now the Dursley family has completely believed that the Wick family is the same as those big guys. After all, on the day of the holiday, they saw with their own eyes several ferocious people getting out of the car.

​A person who can tell at a glance that he needs to be in jail.

Harry's treatment at the Dursleys has become better, and Uncle Vernon will no longer yell at every turn, although sometimes he will yell subconsciously, and then panic and apologize afterward.

Aunt Petunia no longer kept her cold face.

When he saw Aunt Petunia buying him clothes that day, Harry felt that someone had cast the Imperius Curse on them.

His room is no longer locked, and he doesn't need to do his homework carefully.

But because Dudley was losing weight, he needed to eat vegetables with him.

This made Harry, who had been eating vegetables for a month, miserable. He wrote to his friends, hoping to get some delicious food.

Of course, the premise is not to be discovered by Dudley.

Dudley couldn't control his mouth now. Several times he 'sleepwalked' directly to the kitchen. When he opened the refrigerator, there was nothing in it, which made him almost cry.

Harry gave him a suggestion and asked him to go to John's place. There would be a lot of delicious food.

Dudley had a heartbeat, but it was soon overshadowed by the shadow of his childhood.

Even if he shook his head and beat him to death, there were three children who snatched John's Chinese dumplings. John directly pressed the children's hands and performed the pencil disappearing technique.

That incident cast a huge shadow on Dudley.

During that time, I even dreamed of shouting "Don't come over here with the pencil" and slept with my parents for a week.

Harry also wrote letters very frequently, mostly to Sirius.

He always has endless things to talk about with his godfather.

For this reason, Hedwig's originally somewhat round body became slim.

Basil's favorite thing was to stay in front of the window and cast a disdainful look at Hedwig who was busy flying around.

If it weren't for the window, the two snowy owls would definitely fight.

As Harry waited expectantly, his birthday arrived as scheduled.

Hagrid, Hermione, Ron, and Sirius, they sent four big cakes.

And on that day when Harry was happy.

But John stared at the "Daily Prophet" in his hand, and the atmosphere was eerily quiet.

"Did the Ministry of Magic lose Peter Pettigrew?"

John raised his head and looked at Pierce.

Pierce said with fear: "One week after leaving for Azkaban, Peter Pettigrew disappeared."

"Escaped, as expected of a mouse." John put down the newspaper expressionlessly.

He should have thought that if Sirius could run out, then Pettigrew should also be able to.

…

Chapter 182 Invitation and Invitation

Peter Pettigrew disappeared without a trace after leaving Azkaban. Unlike Sirius, Peter Pettigrew this time just disappeared from the world.

He took advantage of the leaderless period in the Ministry of Magic, and Pierce was afraid that this incident would affect his position as Director of the Auror Office.

"Don't worry, this matter will not affect you."

After being comforted by Johnny Silverhand, Pierce finally felt relieved.

Speaking of which, it really has nothing to do with him. This has been handed over to Azkaban. The Aurors have fulfilled their duties, and the blame falls on the Dementors of Azkaban.

Because dementors had attacked students before, many officials from the Ministry of Magic had doubts about dementors.

This time Peter Pettigrew escaped again, which made them need to re-examine the dementors and whether they have the ability to continue to hold this position.

But it will have to be replaced after the new Minister of Magic takes office.

For this reason, the Ministry of Magic spared no effort to pour all dirty water on the Dementors.

Rita Skeeter has successfully gained the position of editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet because her outstanding articles have attracted the attention of public opinion in recent days.

She has much more say, and the amount of public opinion she can generate has also increased.

Under the instructions of John and the hint of the Ministry of Magic, Rita struck decisively. She wrote an article "Is it necessary for the uncontrolled Dementors to continue to stay", directly blaming Peter Pettigrew's escape entirely on the inaction of the Dementors. superior.

There was a heated discussion in the magical community, and people were excited. Some people wrote to the Ministry of Magic asking for the removal of dementors.

They have accepted these letters. When the new Minister of Magic takes office, what to do will be a new problem.

It is also because of this attitude that the public's dissatisfaction with the Dementor incident has escalated again.

Had it not been for the news of the Quidditch World Cup, there would have been tens of thousands of people requesting orders to expel the Dementors.

Barty Crouch, who released the news, successfully increased his presence. He needs to negotiate with the ministers of magic of various countries regarding the Quidditch World Cup.

People from the Bulgarian Ministry of Magic always wanted more good positions, so Barty Crouch had to send them back.

He is even a little lucky. Although his current position is not the core, it happens to be the most visible one at the moment.

Compared with him, the Department of Magical Law Enforcement is not that good.

No one even cares what Amelia Bones is doing now.

With the help of the Quidditch World Cup, Barty quickly returned to the public eye.

…

When Heinrich came to Johnny Silverhand's store, John wanted to say you had a good time in Ilvermorny, but seeing the gloomy face, he still didn't say anything.

"How are you and Jin getting along?" John saw that he was silent and asked.

It's okay not to mention it. When he mentioned that guy, Heinrich couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This made John curious. Even the twins had never made Heinrich so unhappy.

"I hate that man," Heinrich said.

Kim Ledislay is like his opposite, completely opposite to Heinrich's character.

Like a bright sun, it radiates its own light all the time, making vampires who hate sunlight feel dazzling.

But this person always came over. No matter where Heinrich was, Jin would always appear in the next second.

The time spent with Jin was the most unpleasant time for Heinrich.

John didn't expect the two people to be so repulsive. He calmly looked at the letter Jin wrote to him. It clearly stated that he and Heinrich had a great time and that the two were good friends.

"Did you duel with him?"

Knowing that Heinrich hated the weak, John guessed that there was a fight.

He also guessed correctly, Heinrich and Jin had a fight.

As mentioned above, the two people are completely opposites.

Heinrich was proficient in jinxes and all kinds of black magic, while Kim Ledisley was a student with perfect marks in Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Heinrich was best at fire spells, and Kim Ledisley was best at flame-extinguishing spells.

So facing Jin, Heinrich felt a sense of being restrained and aggrieved.

This also made Heinrich train harder. Seeing him like this, John sighed: "Okay, but I have tickets for the Quidditch World Cup. Do you want to go with me?"

John sent an invitation to Heinrich, but Heinrich said with a look of suppressing nausea: "That guy gave me one."

Okay, it seems that it will be difficult to give away the extra one.

Thinking about the people he knew, Fleur was going to the World Cup with Beauxbatons School, Hermione and Harry had made an appointment with the Weasley family, Luna was going with her father, Neville was going to accompany his parents in the hospital, Cedry Gram with his father.

That kid Malfoy sent a message to everyone as soon as he got the tickets.

After counting, John thought of Daphne.

Taking off the badge, John knocked it, and eight names appeared on it.

Selecting Daphne, John sent a message.

After a while, Daphne sent a message.

Even though the handwriting was a bit hasty, "Great, John, I want to go too, thank you for the invitation."

"See you at the Quidditch World Cup."

When Daphne saw the words on the badge, she couldn't help but toss and turn on the bed.

Covering her face with a pillow, she was wearing pajamas and her feet were dangling out of the bed.

My sister, Astoria Greengrass, opened the door and came in, and saw her sister looking like a young girl in love with her child.

"Sister, mom and dad have tickets for the Quidditch World Cup."

Daphne stopped rolling, took the pillow away, and said expressionlessly: "Tear up the tickets!"

Astoria: "Huh?"
