Chapter 476 In-depth communication in the bathroom
Hearing the voice of the opposite sex in the toilet, the first reaction of most people is probably to suspect that they have gone to the wrong toilet.
But Rove will not.
Because...he has rich experience of being blocked by witches in the men's bathroom.
Needless to say, Myrtle often went to the toilet and men's bathroom to peep openly, and Rove was her main target of persecution in recent years.
It can only be said that after dying for too long, there is really no one in this world that Myrtle cares about.
Helena doesn't let herself go like Myrtle, she always maintains aloofness and self-respect, but she also went to the bathroom to find Rove.
But no matter how you say these two are just ghosts, they belong to dead people, and Rove can barely accept it. Being blocked in the toilet by living people at this moment is really outrageous.
Also interviewing... Interviewing a dick, believe it or not, he shivered and slapped her in the face?
Rove turned around and saw a forty-year-old mature woman standing behind him, she was dressed very colorfully:
Her hair is blond and wavy, she wears black-rimmed glasses inlaid with jewels, she has a pair of flaming red lips, her thick legs are wrapped in purple stockings, and her feet are a pair of high-heeled leather boots.
Rita Skeeter...well-known British wizarding reporter.
She is well-informed and can always get important news that others don't know at the first time.
She also likes to spread rumors, distort the truth, sow discord, coerce and manipulate public opinion, just to earn traffic.
It was the first time for Rove to meet Rita, but it was not the first time to deal with him.
In the summer two years ago, Rove went to Nico's manor to attend the funeral, which was later revealed by Rita.
She spread rumors that the Order of the Phoenix is a mysterious organization almost all over the world, trying to establish a new order in the wizarding world and manipulate the world...
Rove was also in the most prominent position in the group photo. To this day, many students believe that he really joined the mysterious organization.
Rove looked at Rita, pursed his lips and said, "Ms. Skeeter, this is the men's bathroom."
"Sorry, Mr. Scamander, you can go on and ignore mine."
Rita reached into her alligator purse and pulled out a long, bright green quill.
Her eyes looked down hard, and she stuck out her tongue to lick the tip of the pen, sucking tastefully for a while, the quill tube trembled slightly, and spewed out a cloud of ink.
Rove frowned and said, "What are you doing?"
"I'm doing an exclusive interview with you." Rita took out another machine from her bag and explained with a smile:
"There is also a real-time broadcast. The conversation between the two of us will be simulcast through the wizard radio in a while, so that all the audience watching in front of the radio can hear it."
"..."
Seeing that Rove was not going to go to the bathroom, Rita Skeeter turned on the machine, waited until the red light came on, and took out a small piece of paper from her pocket.
She adjusted her thick glasses and said in the purest voice of a live reporter:
"This is the British Wizarding Radio Network. I'm reporter Rita Skeeter. I'm reporting live for you at the International Federation of Wizards Conference."
"As I announced earlier, the floating dragon boats on which the representatives of the Ministry of Magic of various countries were boarded encountered a terrorist attack.
Last year, Rolf Scamander, a young genius who helped Sirius Black clear his grievances, was also on this flight.
He managed to stop the attack, save a boatload of wizards, and participate in the General Assembly.
At this moment, Mr. Rove Scamander is standing next to me, Rove... Let's say hello to the domestic audience. "
Rove didn't say hello, but said with a stern face:
"Ms. Rita Skeeter, do you have interview permission? I remember that the Ministry of Magic is not open to reporters today. How did you get in?"
"Of course I have my own special channel, which is absolutely legal, so you don't have to worry about that."
Rita hurriedly covered the microphone, she lowered her voice and said, "Rove, stop talking nonsense, this is a broadcast for the whole of the UK, everyone can hear it..."
"Can everyone hear it?"
Rove laughed. He snapped his fingers, and saw a beam of crackling blue arcs instantly hit the machine in Rita's hand, and it released bursts of blue smoke.
"Well, now no one can hear our conversation."
Rove raised his wand again and locked the bathroom door. A mocking smile appeared on his face and said:
"Rita Skeeter, the two of us can have an in-depth one-on-one interview, and no one can interrupt us."
...
...
U.K,
Ottery St. Catchpole Village,
The Burrow.
The Weasleys huddled around the radio, listening to the British Wizarding Radio simulcast.
"This is the British wizarding radio network. I am reporter Rita Skeeter... At this moment, Mr. Rolf Scamander is standing beside me... Say hello to the domestic audience."
"Sorry, Ms. Skeeter, do you have permission to interview..."
Ginny was sitting on the stool, and when she heard a familiar voice coming from the small speaker, she immediately stood barefoot on the chair and shouted:
"It's Rove's voice, the wizard who saved the floating dragon boat is not the same name, it's really him!"
"Cool!" said Ron enviously, "but how did he end up in Germany?"
"Maybe it's for the International Confederation of Wizards?" said George, who was tinkering with Tongue Toffee.
Fred on the side nodded and said: "Rove saved the wizard of a wizard, and he is also a representative of various countries...I bet he will get two Merlin Medals at once..."
Percy said with a look of regret: "If I had known earlier, I would have given my report to Rove?"
"What report?" Ron asked.
"Write a report for the International Department of Magical Cooperation," said Percy triumphantly, "We're going to test the thickness of the crucible against the standard.
The bottom of some foreign imported products is too thin... The leakage rate is increasing at an annual rate of almost three percent..."
"Give it to Rove, and he will be able to raise this serious question at the International Federation of Wizards Conference."
"It's amazing, this report will change the world." Ron sneered. "I think the Daily Prophet will have it on the front page: Leaking Cauldron."
Percy's face turned pink, and he said excitedly:
"Go ahead and laugh at me, Ron. Sooner or later, I'll be giving a report at the union, just like Rove."
"Keep your voices down." Ginny yelled, "I can't even hear Rove's voice."
Everyone stopped talking and concentrated on listening to the radio, but the sound disappeared, and the radio only made a beeping noise.
"Why is it gone?" Ginny took the radio, tapped it vigorously, and frowned, "The radio was broken because of your quarrel?"
"That radio is too old." Mrs. Weasley's voice came from the kitchen. "Your father bought me a present when I got married."
Fortunately, the voice finally came back, but it was replaced by a strange announcer, and she said in an apologetic voice:
"Sorry for our brief hiatus. There is some problem with the signal ahead. This report can only be temporarily canceled... Next is 'Magic Hour', performed by the famous witch singer Celestina Warbeck."
A group of people sighed in disappointment, and Ginny even cursed that the wizarding radio network would close down sooner or later.
Not only the Weasleys, but all the British wizards listening to the radio at this time wanted to smash the radio.
It feels like reading a novel and suddenly seeing a broken chapter. The discomfort can be imagined, and I can't wait to send Rita a blade.
