Hogwarts: Me? Fight Voldemort?
Page 158
"Lohart took the magic from there, so Gringotts abandoned Göbekli Tepe. After the protective magic was removed, Muggles quickly went inside to study it. That's the gist of it."
Jimmy, recalling the animated murals in the Chamber of Secrets, said, "Lockhart's magic is still at Hogwarts. You can go back and take a look if you're interested."
Let's end this topic here, since it's not a big deal.
Charlie then asked Jimmy, "Yanglongchang in Romania is temporarily closed. Jimmy, is your Cyber Group still hiring?"
"Of course, what kind of work do you want to do?" Jimmy countered.
A little embarrassed, Charlie said, "I think Dragon Gym is good; I've been in contact with dragons for a while now."
"There are no dragons there, but does the potion containing dragon-related ingredients count?"
"I've corresponded with Hagrid, and the gym is great!"
"No problem, you can become a coach."
The two completed the interview in just a few words, and everyone at the table laughed.
Charlie was already tall, and he was very envious of Ron's current physique. Considering that the Dragon Farm was temporarily closed, he wanted to go to the gym to freeload off the Dragon Farm.
A bottle of Qunbolong costs 16 Gallons. It would cost him a lot of money to get the physique Ron has now, and his salary can't support such a high expense.
Is there a way to get Qunbolong for free and also get Cyber Group to pay him?
I'll just work.
Jimmy then told Sirius Black about Lupin's recent appearance in Nottingham Village, and even gossiped that an Auror girl was pursuing Lupin, which amused everyone at the table.
"I'm so happy for Lupin!" Sirius Black, a little tipsy from drinking, exclaimed that he wanted to write to Lupin to ask when they were getting married.
As the dinner party drew to a close, the table was a mess of cups and plates. Harry helped Sirius Black back to his room to rest.
The waiter came in to clear the table, and the dinner party ended.
After a satisfying meal, Jimmy and Hermione rode their broomsticks away from the bustling Quidditch World Cup camp and back to the equally lively Nottingham Village.
There were also many wizards wandering around the village; the usually quiet Nottingham village had never been so lively.
Tom, the owner of the grocery store, had to set up his table outside and send old Jack from the same village to town in his beat-up pickup truck to restock.
They've been overjoyed these past few days; although they've been very busy, they've made a lot of money.
As Jimmy passed by a house, he overheard two old men chatting.
"I don't know where all these idiots from outside came from. They're willing to pay money to buy all of Old Tom's liquor, even though it's all watered down."
"Who knows..."
In the following days, the Quidditch World Cup proceeded as scheduled. Because the event was extended to seven days and included many exhibition matches, tickets were sold for each match.
The seven-day event also gave many people who needed to work and didn't have time to come a wide range of options.
They can choose which game to watch, or which game not to watch.
Wizards can travel across states and back in just half a day. The efficient transportation brought a massive influx of people, with at least 15 people moving around during the event.
Sales in each store naturally soared with the influx of people, and Jimmy's wealth increased several times over.
Foreign wizards are far wealthier than he imagined, or perhaps they are like Ron in the original story, saving up all their money for the Quidditch World Cup.
The event was drawing to a close, and the final competition was about to begin.
The Quidditch World Cup camp also attracted more than 15 people.
Chapter 273 Final
The finals were held as scheduled, and the campsite was busiest today.
Jimmy and Hermione changed back into their formal attire and came before the employees for their final pep talk.
"Today is the last day of the event. The previous six days were very successful without any unexpected incidents, thanks to your hard work."
Jimmy stood with his hands behind his back, his expression unusually serious.
"Because of the success of the previous six days, we must be even more careful on the last day! Absolutely, absolutely no problems can occur! From the beginning to the end of the entire process. Even after the competition is over, we cannot relax until the last tourist leaves, understand?"
A group of employees, exhausted from six days of work, responded listlessly, "Understood..."
The Aurors were one thing, but the cattle and horses of the Round Table were also in this half-dead state.
He glared at them, and the cattle and horses immediately became obedient, replying in a strong voice, "Understood!"
To ensure their work efficiency, Jimmy also prepared a batch of energizing potions, which would guarantee that they would be in top condition all day long.
Jimmy distributed the potions, and most people drank them on the spot, but some people were still in good spirits and didn't want to drink them.
When Spence, whom I had met before, passed by the door on his way to work, he smiled at Jimmy and said, "Thank you, Jimmy, this Quidditch World Cup event was fantastic!"
"If you finish today, everyone will get a bonus." Jimmy gave Spencer a pep talk, and Spencer grinned, but the dark circles under his eyes made the smile look very tired.
The final was originally scheduled for the evening, but due to the extended event time, it has now been moved to noon.
In the afternoon, the fans can go back to where they belong.
There are the fewest evil spirits during the day, and holding the competition in the morning is also for safety reasons.
In the morning, all the fans were rushing to the center of the Quidditch stadium. Many of them were waving Irish and Bulgarian flags, painting their faces in the colors of the flags, and singing excitedly to the music.
Harry and his friends all climbed up to the VIP stands, which offered the best seats and views, and excitedly waved their flags.
Ludobagman did not host the final match from the main stand; he had been organizing betting since the first exhibition match.
Over six days, the bookmakers opened betting odds on every match, and I lost 160,000 Galleons in those six days...
Today is his last chance to turn things around. He's so desperate that he's stopped caring about the finals and is now constantly going from one private room to another, trying to persuade people to place bets.
The only people hosting this match are Barty Crouch and Jimmy. Hermione is not in the stands either; she is in the control center managing and resolving any issues that arise.
Once the stadium was packed, Hermione signaled to Jimmy in the main stand.
Upon receiving the signal, Jimmy raised his wand and launched plumes of colorful smoke into the sky, which served as both fireworks and a signal. Members of the two teams, who were already prepared, immediately burst through the smoke and descended from the sky.
The arrival of the two teams elicited cheers from the fans that nearly lifted the roof off.
"The 422nd Quidditch World Cup Grand Final is about to begin!"
After the start of the match was announced, the players from both sides began to move around the field.
Bulgaria was determined to win, and Ireland was equally determined not to let their opponent win.
After studying the opponent's tactics, both sides made adjustments, consciously targeting each other's weaknesses and strengthening their own advantages. The first ten minutes of the match were particularly intense, with the score widening continuously.
Jimmy turned away from the main stands and went to patrol the area around the stadium himself.
The Golden Eye Mantra remained activated, observing those who harbored ill will towards him amidst a dazzling light.
He never revealed this spell. Perhaps Dumbledore could guess it from the changes in his eyes, but those dark wizards would never have imagined that he had this trick up his sleeve.
He had already discovered these malicious individuals hiding in the crowd three days earlier.
There weren't many of them, and he planned to take care of them secretly while everyone's attention was focused on the game.
After entering the staff entrance of the stadium, Jimmy was surrounded by more and more tattooed wizards. After receiving their tasks, they would quickly leave and sneak towards the vicinity of the suspects.
Half of the people were inside the stadium, while the other half, who hadn't bought tickets, were in the camp.
Halfway there, just as Jimmy was about to head to the top-floor suite, a person suddenly appeared at the corner ahead, making him squint. "Mrs. Narcissa."
The elegant Narcissa Malfoy suddenly appeared and blocked his way, her smooth forehead glistening with sweat, and a hint of nervousness in her eyes.
Jimmy, who appears harmless, is a million times more evil than Voldemort. At least Voldemort's Dark Mark doesn't enslave a person's soul.
"Long time no see, Jimmy." Narcissa Malfoy gave a somewhat forced smile and rambled on, "The weather might not be too good today, I wonder if any dark clouds have drifted into the stadium... School starts in two weeks, I'll have to take good care of Hydra next semester."
Jimmy's expression was strange as he nodded and said, "I've also considered the weather. After all, safety comes first, and we don't want dark clouds to drift in. Hydra is my friend, so of course I'll help her if she has any difficulties at school."
What kind of weather is this? Your words are quite suggestive!
Hydra was a key supporter of the Cyber Group at its inception, so I had to help her out of both goodwill and reason. Mrs. Narcissa doesn't really understand me!
Narcissa Malfoy's expression softened slightly. She had also come to appreciate the benefits of talking to intelligent people. Her voice softened a little as she said, "I heard the sounds of wild animals nearby last night. I hope to prevent them from harming anyone."
"Wild animals nearby?" Jimmy's expression changed slightly. "I'll keep an eye out."
After delivering the message, Narcissa Malfoy leaned against the wall as if she had completed a difficult task. Her plump body sculpted a shapely curve against the flat wall, resembling a piece of snow-white, sweet rice cake.
She pulled her wand from her dress pocket, pressed the tip to her temple, drew out a wisp of white memory and tossed it around, then turned and left nonchalantly.
Once Jimmy could no longer see Narcissa, he signaled to a black slave, "Take a small team and go to Nottingham village to keep watch. In case of any emergency, prioritize protecting the villagers."
The black slave obeyed and ran away, while Jimmy continued walking upstairs to the VIP box.
The private rooms facing the stadium were soundproofed, so no sound came out.
Jimmy searched the corridor room by room according to the numbers, and finally found Harry and Ron's family's private room.
In the original book, Barty Crouch's house-elf, Shiny, is in the story, and next to Shiny is the famous Death Eater, Barty Crouch Jr.
But when he opened the door to the private room, there was no house-elf Sparky inside, let alone Barty Crouch Jr.
Jimmy had actually anticipated this unexpected turn of events, given the significant changes he had made to the Quidditch World Cup.
Not wanting to disturb the Weasleys' enjoyment of the game, Jimmy quietly closed the door and began searching through the private rooms around the circular rooftop.
Chapter 274 Victory and the Werewolf
Jimmy searched the top-floor private room but couldn't find the house-elves Sparkle and Barty Crouch Jr.
Since he couldn't find it, he stopped looking. He figured what was meant to come out would come out eventually.
There were two Round Table Wizards on guard at the dispatch center. When they saw Jimmy approaching, they bowed obsequiously and opened the dispatch center door.
Hermione was still checking the remote monitoring that Jimmy had set up, while holding a notebook in her other hand.
Wizards are not without remote communication tools or tools for recording images; they simply believe that what they have is sufficient and therefore do not develop new ones.
The telescopes sold by vendors outside the Quidditch World Cup have rewind and recording functions, and the Wizarding World also has radios and broadcasting stations, including several professional radio programs.
The knowledge he had acquired through in-game purchases was already vast. With a little more thought, Jimmy created a walkie-talkie and surveillance camera that could be used without electromagnetic interference.
These products will be sold in a separate security store in the future, while Raccoon Alchemy will specialize in selling games.
Hermione heard the door open and footsteps, and when she turned around and saw Jimmy, she breathed a heavy sigh of relief. "Now that many people have been taken into custody, what should we do next?"
