What happened to Cedric was a wake-up call for everyone.
In order to prevent himself from falling victim to Umbridge's abuse of Veritaserum, Harry had to hold an urgent DA meeting to discuss how to deal with the matter.
Under the watchful eyes of DA members, Cedric recounted in detail his experience of being called by a toad to drink tea, and reminded everyone to be vigilant.
"The toad should have no reason to doubt us, and we didn't have the Self-Defense Guide," said a Ravenclaw girl.
"That's what I thought at first. However, after going to Umbridge's office, I feel that she may be unable to bear it anymore, and mass screening is a matter of time." Cedric shook his head and said, "I dare to Said she must be pretty sure Dumbledore's Army did exist."
"Toad would do that, I'm not surprised at all, don't take any luck," Fred reminded.
"The toad has already used Veritaserum. This thing is illegal. Even the Ministry of Magic is very taboo to use this kind of thing, but she took it out and used it on a student?" Harry glanced at everyone present and said calmly. , "If you still have any luck with this, you can only pray that this kind of thing doesn't fall on you."
"We signed a contract. Before the end of this semester, betrayal will have to pay the price." Hermione reminded.
The expressions on everyone's faces were a bit ugly, and they even glared at Hermione.
"It was a voluntary risk, and no one forced you from beginning to end," Harry reminded calmly.
Yes, it is completely voluntary, and I have confirmed it again and again before joining, but unfortunately some people have forgotten it.
"Okay, let's talk about everyone's ideas, one by one." Hermione changed the subject so that everyone would not feel embarrassed.
Sure enough, someone soon proposed to distribute the antidote to Umbridge's Veritaserum.
"I think the focus now should be to stop the toad from continuing to use Veritaserum on students," Burns said, raising his hand. "We should report it to the Ministry of Magic. Toad will definitely have some scruples and will not dare to act recklessly."
As soon as Burns proposed this slightly naive idea, it was rejected by most of the members.
"Toads are Fudge's minions, and now the entire Ministry of Magic is in Fudge's hands, so aren't you throwing yourself into the net?" Ernie McMillan directly rejected the absurd decision, "If you dare to do that, I dare Said that the next person to be invited to tea by Toad will definitely be you."
"We can tell Headmaster Dumbledore about it."
Hermione also disagreed with Burns' proposal, because the Toad and the Ministry of Magic were in the same group. As for whether it would be useful to tell Dumbledore, Hermione didn't know, but it was a good idea and you could try it.
"I don't think it's effective. It's best not to have high expectations. Toad has already used the Education Order to control Hogwarts, and even Dumbledore can't do anything with the toad." Cedric was not optimistic about Hermione's The headmaster wrote about this, "I prefer Dumbledore's plan to wait for Cornelius Fudge to step down, and then let Umbridge get out of office. That is undoubtedly the best way. After all, Dumbledore is the headmaster, and in some There will be concerns on the side, and it is impossible to be as reckless as we are.
"Why don't you tell Dumbledore about it? Maybe he's been too busy recently, and he may not have time to pay attention to what's going on in the school. Otherwise, he certainly won't allow Toad to use Veritaserum to torture students." Harry actually agreed. Cedric's statement, but he still made an excuse for Dumbledore. If it wasn't for Toad doing too much and targeting himself at all times, Harry didn't want to do it. He ignored the toad like Albert, look. The other party's joke, wouldn't it be better to wait for the toad to get out?
It's a pity that Toad obviously won't allow him to do that.
Fred and George raised their hands and said, "We have a one-time solution?"
"What way?" someone asked immediately
"We can turn the toad into a real toad and make her temporarily disappear for a few months, and when Fudge steps down and get out, we can change the toad back, I think Professor Dumbledore will definitely not continue to let her stay in Huo Gwartz in office." Fred and George looked at each other and said their proposal.
"Would it be too much to do?"
"Say as if she wouldn't overdo it on us with Veritaserum." George didn't expect everyone to agree to the plan, he just said it to warn everyone.
"Who will do it?"
"We can do it," Fred said. "My Transfiguration is not bad."
"It's very risky," Cedric reminded with a frown. "It's bound to alert the Ministry of Magic, and there are at least six months until the holiday."
"I think it's a good idea."
"Yes, it's normal for something to happen to the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, and we can only lock up the toad temporarily."
The Weasley twins' proposal was immediately accepted by everyone, and even they almost made the Weasley twins heroes.
However, no one expected that George suddenly said: "Of course, if it is to be done, everyone must sign."
Obviously, this kind of thing can't be done by yourself. If you really want to do it, you have to pull everyone here into the water. When you run into trouble, someone will help fight the mine together.
It can only be said that the Weasley twins are more savvy than ever before in the same dormitory with Albert.
As soon as George's words fell, the original echoing sound came to an abrupt end, and the atmosphere at the scene became very embarrassing.
"This is a backup plan. Whether to do it or not will be discussed later." George didn't care about the embarrassed expressions of others. He already knew what most of the people here were.
Hermione didn't give everyone time to continue the discussion. She shook her head and said, "I don't agree with doing this either. The risk is a bit high."
"Any other ideas?" Harry asked, looking around.
"I think the antidote for Veritaserum is good." Someone immediately suggested.
No way, Fred and George's solution, although it can solve the problem, is too extreme, and they obviously don't want to get involved.
Of course, if Fred and George didn't say they wanted to sign, most people would definitely agree with them and see them as heroes.
It seems to be to relieve embarrassment, everyone agrees to use the antidote of Veritaserum, of course, not all to relieve embarrassment, but because this method is simpler and can fight wits and courage with Umbridge, just in Not long ago, Cedric explained to everyone how he was called to the Defence Against the Dark Arts office.
"It is very unreliable to distribute the antidote to everyone, and none of us know how to prepare that kind of potion." Hermione poured cold water on everyone, "Of course, if anyone of you can brew the antidote. If so, we will provide you with medicinal materials as much as possible."
The voices in the Room of Requirement stopped abruptly again, and they all turned their attention to Cedric.
"Don't look at me, I won't either. The antidote for Veritaserum was given by Albert." Cedric said that he couldn't do anything about it, maybe he felt the atmosphere of the scene and asked, "Who of you knows how to boil system"
There is no doubt that no one knows how to cook an antidote.
"We can find Albert, I think he..."
"He's not free..." Hermione interrupted helplessly, "So, let go of that unrealistic idea, Albert has already provided us with a lot of help."
"As for the antidote formula for brewing Veritaserum, we have already obtained it." Fred explained, "If you want to see the antidote formula and steps, you can come to me and transcribe a copy."
"Is it difficult even if it is formulated according to the formula?" There is naturally no shortage of students who have learned magic potions well.
"The difficulty is very high, and even if other people really cook it, I can't guarantee that everyone will dare to drink that kind of semi-finished product." Cedric shook his head and said, he was too clear, most students did not dare to drink their own preparations. Potions.
In the end, they could not reach an agreement, and Hermione recorded everyone's proposals one by one.
"Then what should we do, toad may use Veritaserum on everyone at any time?"
The problem needs to be solved eventually, as they say, the toads can add veritase to their drink at any time.
"Don't worry, we have a backup plan." Harry looked at Fred and George.
The Weasley brothers walked up to everyone under the complicated gaze of people.
"The solution is actually very simple, that is to delay time and buy time for everyone to help you." Fred began to explain to everyone how to deal with Umbridge, and there are many ways to delay time, such as secretly giving toads. Curse, so that she accidentally fell unconscious.
"Anyway, as long as you send someone to the school hospital, whether it's Umbridge or yourself, you'll be able to win the time as you come and go." George echoed.
What if the toad doesn't give up?
"If Toad doesn't give up, take someone to make trouble and throw gas bombs into his office so that Umbridge can't interrogate you." Fred said without hesitation, they did a lot of similar things.
"If Umbridge really sticks to it, the only option is to try the Oblivion Charm and make the toad forget it," George added, "Although we've only practiced the Oblivion Charm with mice, I think It should be fine for toads."
"Does anyone know this spell?"
"I probably know the principle, but I haven't used it." Hermione said, in addition to Hermione, there are several people who can forget the spell.
"You'd better practice your hands with mice first."
"That's probably the case. Although it may be more troublesome, at least you can avoid drinking Toad's Veritaserum." Harry clapped his hands, took out a few boxes of candy, and said, "Fred and George are willing to give you two for free. Quick-acting escaping candies, one for practice and one for emergency use. Of course, if you use them all, then you can only pay for them."
"Okay, everyone come here in order to get your favorite candy."
People are a little surprised at the generosity of Fred and George, knowing that there are a lot of DA members today, and this batch of quick-acting skipping candies will cost at least 7 Galleons.
And, to their surprise, there was actually a live rehearsal later.
"Also, we should spread this method to the entire castle, so that Toad can't figure out who is the DA member." George reminded.
"No problem!" Harry looked at Lee Jordan.
"It shouldn't be a problem, I think everyone will find it very interesting." Li Jordan said with a smile, "There are many people who hate toads in school now."
"Next, it's up to us to show you what to do when you face that situation." George motioned for everyone to spread out, and then he would cover up how to delay time for everyone.
The demonstrations by the two were actually very interesting. For example, after secretly using a leg-moving spell to fall down, they used a stun spell to pretend that Umbridge was knocked out.
I don't know why, but everyone always thinks this scene seems familiar.
There was a round of applause when Lee Jordan on the cushion was awakened.
"To do this, you need to be concealed enough, and you can do it with the help of others. Don't let others find something wrong, otherwise it will be very troublesome." George explained to everyone, "If you can't do it, another way The easiest way."
When the two were walking, Fred, who was behind, suddenly stuffed a quick-acting escaping candy into his mouth, and then fainted to the ground.
Then, there is no then.
"In this case, the toad can only send you to the school hospital." George continued to explain, "I can guarantee that a simple resuscitation spell will have no effect on the stun effect caused by the stun sugar. Of course, if you are afraid of falling and hurting, You can also try nosebleed nougat or spit candy, there are many types to choose from anyway.
Hermione wrote down what they explained on the blackboard, and Harry summarized some of the mischievous spells that might be used in it. At that time, they needed to practice various spells that might be useful, and conduct practical exercises separately to avoid the time. revealing.
As long as you learn it, it's not a problem even if you want to sneak up on Umbridge.
Although the solution given by Fred and George was not the best solution, everyone felt very interesting and eager to try it.
"I suggest you don't try it at will." Cedric had to stand up and remind everyone, "These are just emergency plans, if possible, it's best not to encounter this kind of thing. Of course, if you are good at forgetting spells, Maybe giving the toad an oblivion spell would be the best choice, but... it's better not to encounter it, no one can guarantee their luck is good enough."
"Okay, let's all come here now, one by one, in pairs, one pretending to be Umbridge and the other pretending you're going to be taken to the Defence Against the Dark Arts office." Harry clapped his hands and said, "Start now. Group!"
Without a doubt, the party ended successfully.
Although many of them acted flamboyantly, they all left the Room of Requirement talking and laughing. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
"Do you think this method is reliable?" Hermione, who stayed at the end, asked.
"I don't know, but at least it's a way." Harry shook his head.
"If I say so, I should find a way to keep the toad missing for a few months," Fred said.
"Or, a few months in the hospital," George added.
"You guys have come up with so many quick-acting escaping candies this time." Ron was a little surprised that Fred and George gave everyone free candy, which was a huge loss.
"We don't suffer. If we want people to buy candy, we have to let them know the effect of candy." Fred shrugged. "Albert calls this an advertisement."
"It's worth it to spend a few Galleons for an advertisement." George echoed, "It can also solve the problem of Veritaserum, and it can give everyone a good impression."
"Albert called it three birds with one stone," Lee Jordan said.
"These guys are really rich, no, it should be said that Albert is really rich, let them squander like this." Ron shook his head puzzledly, he really couldn't understand what three birds with one stone mean.
"They actually made a lot of money."
Harry didn't think they were at a loss, and Albert Anderson wasn't someone who would suffer.
"They're building popularity." Hermione glanced at Ron and explained, "They're going to run a joke shop, and the shop's customers must be Hogwarts students, so they're going to leave school before they leave the school. Accumulate enough popularity for the store, I think this is probably Albert's reminder to them, don't forget, there are advertisements published by them in the "Daily Prophet"."
