v4 Chapter 64: Composition of the jury

Percy, who was returning to Hogwarts on behalf of Mr. Crouch, looked extremely excited, and his shiny red ears attested to his mood. At the moment, the homecoming Percy is trying to join any conversation on the faculty bench.

As Percy's teacher, the deans other than Snape were also willing to give him this face, and it was a pleasure to chat with him. For them, it is also a good thing to have a good face when a student they know is reused by the Ministry of Magic just after graduation.

Professor McGonagall of Gryffindor House is the happiest one. Percy, a student at her house, returned to Hogwarts today as the representative of the Ministry of Magic, making her happy to speak two points higher.

"This year's opening ceremony seems to be a little earlier than the competition in history?"

"That's right," Percy would go on as soon as he opened the conversation box, to show his status at the Ministry of Magic, "We originally planned to follow the historical Triwizard Tournament format and set the opening ceremony at It's Halloween, but this year's game is a little different from previous years, and overall-"

Percy suddenly closed his mouth, because he noticed that Mrs. Maxim and Professor Karkaroff were still chatting on the surface, but he had actually turned his attention to himself.

Although Percy likes to show off what he knows, he is not a fool. On the contrary, he is very smart. A stupid person is incapable of being a prefect and student council president. Percy was really tender before, but that was only due to a lack of practical experience. The few months he worked at the Ministry of Magic after graduation had tempered him, allowing Percy, the "student leader", to lose his innocence and become a qualified Ministry of Magic bureaucrat.

Want to get information from him? wishful thinking!

"Speaking of which, it turns out that this is the point of view from the faculty seat and the audience." He bluntly changed the subject, and the other professors were also very happy, and they all made fun of Percy.

"Actually, we can see your little actions clearly above..." Professor McGonagall leaned over and told Percy about her findings.

After the first batch of dishes disappeared, desserts came to the table.

A plate of Danish pastry just happened to appear in front of Tom, so he took two of them to his plate unceremoniously.

Danish pastry is a kind of pastry bread, which is a local specialty dessert in Denmark. The crispy, crispy layers of pastry are wrapped with all kinds of fresh jams. When you bite down, the pastry rustles in your mouth, and fresh fruit The jam made is fried along with the meringue, and the taste is sweet and not greasy, which makes people unforgettable.

Hermione cut a small piece of princess cake, which is a very popular national dessert in Sweden. The outside is a layer of marzipan icing, the inside is thick whipped cream, and the innermost layer is jam, and the taste that melts in your mouth makes Hermione infatuated.

As for desserts such as crepes, cinnamon rolls, and macarons, there are many more. If he hadn't been too full before, Tom would have tried everything.

There is no lasting feast at Hogwarts, even if the little wizards are reluctant to part, the desserts still disappear from the golden plate.

After everything became clean and tidy again, Dumbledore stood up, the auditorium suddenly became quiet, and a strange emotion filled the auditorium: this emotion was a combination of excitement and tension. Everyone was excited about what was going to happen next, but everyone was inexplicably nervous.

"Classmates, with the arrival of all the guests, the Triwizard Tournament will also kick off," Dumbledore smiled, looking at the expectant faces in the audience, "I remember I once said, Warriors They will be chosen by an absolutely impartial referee...so get the box in first."

As soon as Dumbledore finished speaking, Filch emerged from the corner, holding an old wooden box inlaid with jewels. He carefully placed the wooden box on the table in front of Dumbledore, and hurried back to the corner.

"Before I reveal the mystery, I need to explain this year's event program to you, and introduce two guests from the Ministry of Magic - of course, I think it is unlikely that you do not know them, this is Mr. Ludo Bagman , Director of the Department of Sport at the Ministry of Magic."

There was a burst of applause in the auditorium. As a batsman, Ludo Bagman was very popular among the students, and was naturally welcomed by everyone.

After introducing Bagman, Dumbledore pointed his finger at Percy, "This person must be more familiar to everyone, he is the Assistant Director of the International Cooperation Department of the Ministry of Magic, the former President of the Hogwarts Boys' Union, Percy Weiss Lay!"

Percy's applause was much louder than Bagman's. Bagman is indeed a great hitter, but he was active more than ten years ago, when most of the little wizards present were not born! It's different with Percy Weasley, who was at school with everyone a few months ago!

As a fresh graduate, Percy received a grand welcome at Hogwarts. Everyone's attitude towards him is much more enthusiastic than when he was at school.

"The employees of the Ministry of Magic at have worked tirelessly over the past few months to organize the Triwizard Tournament. Ultimately, after deliberation, we have decided that Mr. Bagman will represent the Ministry of Magic. , together with me, Ms. Maxim, Professor Karkaroff, and three representatives from different schools to form a jury to judge the efforts of the warriors," Dumbledore showed a mischievous smile, "in order to ensure that To be fair, we won't reveal the names of the three representatives until now."

Hearing this, the students showed curious expressions, and they all wanted to know who the three were. Unlike the students, Percy, next to Dumbledore, was concerned with another problem. He frowned and felt a little strange in his heart: The representative of the Ministry of Magic should be Mr. Crouch? He has done so much more work than Ludo Bagman, so why is Bagman's fish madman representing the Ministry of Magic?

Percy's intuition was right. The people from the Ministry of Magic are not blind. At first, they agreed to recommend Crouch as the referee, but Crouch firmly refused. He is now reclusive and does not want to get involved in the Triwizard Tournament. As a last resort, everyone let Bagman take the post.

Dumbledore took out an envelope from his pocket, he opened the envelope, inside was a piece of parchment, and he read out the name on the parchment.

"Durmstrong's representative is - Issa May! Beauxbatons is - Barry Crowder! Hogwarts' representative is..." Dumbledore paused for two seconds, waiting Everyone was whetted before exclaiming, "Percy Weasley!"
