No one knows what happened last night.
At least, no one on the surface knows.
Because of being awakened by Bud in the middle of the night, Albert was not in good spirits this morning. He reached out his hand and yawned and read the "Bullfight Daily" slowly.
The bottle of fortune last night, after being tested personally by Isius, has been proven to be harmless. The other party also successfully got the final payment of 1,000 gold coins from the "Bullfighting Daily", plus the first two hundred gold coins, Albert was allocated 600 gold coins, plus a bottle of blessing for about two days, and completed it by the way. Panel task.
"You look sleepy?" The bar owner Diana came over to inform Albert of the time of the party. "By the way, where is Mr. Budd?"
"He should be still asleep. We talked late last night and then rested." Albert put down the newspaper and said.
"Yes, there's something else." Before Diana turned and walked away, she turned around and said: "After the game is over, there will be a small banquet for you and the referee. Yes, please do not have to stay here after the banquet and then leave."
Albert looked at Diana's back and raised his eyebrows slightly. He thought of something Bud had mentioned to him.
At this moment, Albert felt as if someone was spying on him. He picked up the newspaper again as a cover and quietly looked in a certain direction.
There sits a special correspondent for the Bullfighting Daily.
Albert suddenly knew why the guy was looking at himself secretly. This was to observe whether he had symptoms caused by an overdose of Fuling.
"Would you like to tease him?"
An inexplicable bad taste suddenly surged in Albert's heart, but this thought was soon suppressed by him.
It's better to disassociate yourself from this matter.
After all, everything is Isius's fault.
It was he who deceived the group of people who opened a gambling game in the Bullfighting Daily and took their money and ran away.
What does it have to do with Albert?
The tracking curse that the opponent left on Isius had long been forcibly blocked by Albert using magic. When the time comes, the frustrated man behind the scenes will find that he has been played by someone as a monkey. It must be very interesting.
"It feels really good."
There was a slight smile at the corner of Albert's mouth, and he finally knew why there were so many old men.
It's so pleasant!
After looking at each other's eyes with special correspondent Lucian, Albert smiled and nodded towards each other, then looked away from the other's stunned gaze, and re-read the latest issue of Bullfighting Daily.
Having said that, he found that the front page headlines of the Bullfighting Daily were really embarrassing.
Anyway, it's an advocacy to him.
However, at the end of the article, Albert discovered that there was a hole in it.
If Albert is found to use a lot of blessings, the eight achievements will immediately become the object of countless people spurned, and many people will fall victim to him.
Really ruthless!
If you are scorned by others, your reputation will probably be ruined!
Sure enough, the wool of those guys was right, why didn't the house elves bring more Garon back then!
What a pity.
When the time was almost up, Albert got up and followed the other players upstairs to the party.
Yesterday's living room was surrounded by comfortable sofas, and drinks and desserts were placed on the small round table in front of them.
Several referees have already taken their seats, and the players are sitting among the referees, communicating one-on-one.
Albert is very calm. He has a lot of experience in getting along with old friends. The man who was suspected of being an Auror was very adaptable, and the other woman quickly entered the state. It was the decadent Mr. Noe who stammered when he spoke, and was the most embarrassed of the four.
Albert was chatting casually with the lady next to him. The two parties spoke Italian. After a brief communication, Albert learned that the lady in front of him was called Monica, who was said to have been working as a referee for 63 years.
The two chatted casually about Italian cuisine, and the relationship between the two parties became much closer.
Monica looked at Albert, who was talking, and was surprised that Albert was a Muggle wizard. Although she has read the information, Albert does not look like a Muggle wizard, and what surprised Monica most is Albert's circle of friends. The other party has spoken about several Italian experts in various fields. Listen to him. The relationship seems to be pretty good.
Later, the conversation between the two of them was gradually led to spell-casting techniques, and Albert directly used the knowledge on the panel skills to fudge...Well, it's not a flicker.
In short, Ms. Monica has her mouth open many times, seeming to be shocked by Albert's unique insights on spelling techniques. Even Mr. Yafo, the Bulgarian wizard next to Albert, couldn't help turning his head and chatting with him.
Looking at the 17th, the most dazzling number in the whole party, special correspondent Lucian showed an imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth.
Sure enough, on the 17th, he took Fu Ling Ji, otherwise it would be impossible to talk to a few referees.
The next step is to let the opponent out.
This is also the main reason why Lucian appeared here.
As long as No. 17 is found to be disqualified from the competition by taking Fu Ling, he will get a large bonus.
Lucian can't wait.
However, what makes him wonder is why the 17th has not revealed any flaws?
Using large doses of the blessing potion should become arrogant and make the referees aware of something wrong, but why is there no sign?
"What a weird thing."
In the eyes of special correspondent Lucian, Albert's body clearly reveals the characteristics of a lot of blessing agents.
But... why?
The party lasted for two hours. Lucian left the living room behind the contestants with confused eyes. He couldn't understand why the situation was different from what he said.
Finally, Lucian quickly returned to the Bullfighting Daily to report the strange incident and asked whether to start the preparatory plan.
The so-called preparatory plan is actually pretending to be someone else to report that Albert has taken a blessing.
Yes, report it.
Then, investigate.
As for who made the report, it really doesn't matter.
Anyway, this kind of large-scale competition has a process of checking the blessing agent, which is more time-consuming and labor-intensive.
After receiving the report, the Spanish Ministry of Magic immediately took action, an image of justice that I will resolutely maintain a fair and just game.
This incident caused an uproar.
In addition, the Bullfighting Daily deliberately digs holes in the headlines.
Many people are beginning to wonder if the elixir was used secretly on the 17th. After all, he is too young. The young wizard who is jealous of him is also happy to see him unlucky and starts to fan the flames and demand fair treatment of this matter. A fair.
"I found that some people really do everything for money." Albert sighed slightly, "They did it."
"In your expectation, isn't it?" Bud thought it was getting more interesting. The Bullfighting Daily met Albert and it was a sizzling kick.
"No, I didn't expect the other people's changes." Albert didn't care about the suspicious eyes around him, and said in a very soft voice, "Do you think the magical world in England will be like this..."
"So stupid?" Bud wasn't surprised at all.
"They just don't want to admit that I am a genius. They are more willing to believe that I secretly cheated with the elixir." Albert was surprised at all.
"The same is true in the British magical world. People only want to see what they want to see. This is natural." Bud sighed. He knew what Albert was referring to. "If Voldemort returns one day, the entire British magical world will probably desperately deny that he is still alive."
"It is more because of the Spanish Ministry of Magic. They want civilians to be well managed, and fools are undoubtedly better to manage than smart people." Albert said softly, "However, I think this is more interesting."
To be honest, Albert doesn't think he is a magnanimous person.
Therefore, he is now particularly looking forward to the wonderful expressions on the faces of those who had suspected that he cheated on the blessing potion after learning the cruel truth.
After lunch, the four contestants were gathered in the living room. Several referees, the bar owner Diana, the special correspondent of the Bullfighting Daily, and three officials from the Spanish Ministry of Magic were all present.
"I'm sorry to call you all over, but I think you may also hear some bad rumors." Diana frowned, and this happened to her very upset.
"For the fairness of the game, the organizers feel it is necessary to take action."
"How are you going to test?" the wizard who looked like an Auror frowned and asked, "Using Panthera or Veritaserum?"
"We are more inclined to use pantheonism." Diana said, "Mr. Digar is a master pantheon, he can... please say Ms. Camerin."
"How can you ensure that he doesn't mess around with the memories in my mind." said the only woman in the team.
"Do you have any questions, Mr. Noe?"
"How do you guarantee that he won't lie?" Noé has already smelled the conspiracy. "Don't tell me that he is an official of the Ministry of Magic. As long as he is an individual, he may lie for some reason."
The faces of the officials from the Spanish Ministry of Magic were very ugly, especially the players who had a deep distrust of them.
"Please tell me Mr. Anderson." Diana nodded at Albert.
"As far as I know, major events have their own way of checking cheating." Of course Albert knows the way.
A small amount of Veritaserum will not cause harm to people.
However, many large-scale competitions actually don’t like to use Veritaserum, because this thing is a prohibited item, it is very troublesome to use it, and there are ways to avoid it. The antidote to Veritaserum.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became a little stiff, even Diana didn't know what to do, and she had never encountered such a situation.
"Don't worry." One of the five referees stood up and said, "Actually, the referee team has already had a way to identify whether to use the elixir."
Everyone looked at the referees.
"To be honest, we don't advocate using it." With that, a referee opened a box with a transparent medicine inside.
"As we all know, if you take Fuling too much by itself, you have some bad symptoms, and you can't drink it continuously, otherwise there will be very serious consequences." Ms. Monica introduced to everyone, "If you have taken Fuling within a short period of time, If you use it again, you may have symptoms such as dizziness and poisoning. Of course, if you don’t use Fuling, it is harmless."
"Short time means how short it is." Albert asked. "If it's a year, he feels he can just give up."
"Within a month." Monica said.
"What if you are poisoned?"
"We have first aid medicine here."
The four of them looked at each other, and finally looked at the Ministry of Magic officials.
"We need to prove the effectiveness of this medicine." The official headed by the three said, "You know, this is related to a gambling, and we have to be cautious."
"We have a blessing potion here." An elderly referee took out a golden vial and handed it to him. "Only one drop is enough, otherwise there may be trouble if the poisoning is serious."
The faces of the three officials of the Ministry of Magic were not very pretty. Finally, one of them drank a little blessing potion, and then drank the potion used for the test. As a result, the whole person panicked and almost passed out. Not only that, his face suddenly changed. It's pale, like being sick.
"Drink this, it will make you more comfortable, although it will be better after a while with the previous dose."
As they said, they took out another bottle, lowered it into the water, and let the official of the Ministry of Magic drink it, his face looked better.
"Well, do you admit it yourself, or drink some of this stuff?"
"I'll do it first." The wizard who was suspected of being Auror stood up, and he took the cup that the referee had handed over and drank it.
No effect.
The second one is Ms. Camerin.
The same has no effect.
"I'll do it first."
Noe vaguely sees that the current incidents may be aimed at the 17th.
However, he didn't feel that the other party needed to use a blessing potion.
The same has no effect.
Everyone stared at Albert, and he directly finished the cup and drank it in full view.
Well, it still has no effect.
"how come!"
Both the Ministry of Magic and the special reporter were very surprised, as if they had long ago determined that someone would take a blessing to participate in the competition.
"It seems that this should be just a joke, maybe the Ministry of Magic should carefully interrogate the guy who deliberately reported."
If you still don't see what's going on, you're really stupid.
Obviously, it was aimed at the 17th, and this matter is 80% related to gambling.
"Well, everyone has seen it. No one cheated with the elixir." A male referee team and three Spanish Ministry of Magic officials said, "I think this should be just a joke."
Just a joke?
The three officials of the Ministry of Magic left with ugly expressions. They didn't understand how this happened.
Lucian, a special correspondent for the Bullfighting Daily, looked even more ugly. He shook his body slightly, reaching out to support the chair before he almost fell to the ground.
Didn’t it mean that the number 17 used the blessing agent?
Those referees are deceiving them?
Still say...Isius' **** deceived them.
Lucian couldn't imagine how much money the Bullfight Daily would have to lose once it won the championship on the 17th.
