After being taught a lesson by Peeves, Umbridge, who returned from St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, seems to have become a lot more "honest", and he didn't dare to go to everyone's troubles or talk about it again. This time, it seems that after the last lesson, Umbridge has become "well-behaved" and harmless, no longer as aggressive as before.
However, what made everyone's jaw drop even more was that Umbridge actually asked Filch to take off the pile of education orders hanging on the notice wall.
Many students couldn't believe their eyes, let alone the changes in Umbridge. Even Hermione hesitated about the previous plan to discredit Toad, and came to ask Albert if he wanted to continue the previous plan. Harry had always insisted that everything Umbridge was doing was just a disguise.
"Even if the venomous snake puts away its fangs, it is still a venomous snake. She is just waiting patiently for the opportunity to show its fangs again, instead of being beaten stupidly. I don't believe in the nonsense of putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha on the spot.
"Hermione, don't be fooled by the appearance of the toad." Harry raised his hand, looked at the shallow scar on the back of his hand, and said coldly, "Don't forget, I'm still suspended, and don't forget, my fire The crossbow is still with her. I'd rather trust Anderson's judgment than trust her."
"I didn't... I just felt weird." Hermione looked at the empty bulletin wall in front of her and fell into a brief silence, "Maybe, she's brewing some conspiracy again."
A few days passed, and no new education orders appeared on the notice wall. Umbridge also became very low-key, and did almost no other extra things besides teaching the students.
Hogwarts returned to its usual peaceful and comfortable life, as if the nightmare that lasted for half a year had finally ended.
Especially when Harry got his Firebolt back and was allowed to return to the Quidditch game, even he was instantly shaken, suspecting that Umbridge had really reformed, but the scar on the back of his hand But Harry couldn't believe Umbridge anyway.
"What do you think Umbridge is going to do?"
George got his broom from Umbridge and asked Albert suspiciously.
Has the toad really reformed?
This kind of thing makes the Wesley twins hard to believe.
However, the current situation looks very strange, what the **** is Umbridge doing?
"It's called retreating to advance. In that case, he can only admit his cowardice first and wait for the opportunity to grab your tail. Trust me, she will show her fangs again soon." Albert could guess Wu What Murich was going to do, he was just a little surprised that Fred and George would have doubts.
Lack of experience?
It is estimated that he has never been scammed, or has never encountered a similar case, so he can't understand Umbridge's operation.
Of course, this may be related to the fact that most ordinary people are easier to satisfy.
There are many similar eucalyptus cases, and they have to be pitted before they can be deeply remembered.
"It turns out that the toad is really insidious enough."
Fred and George, who just got their broomsticks back, felt bad all of a sudden, because they found that Umbridge's operation had successfully made many people put down their vigilance.
"Is it insidious?" Albert looked strange.
Presumably, after this time, we can give free lessons to all students in the school.
"We have to talk to Harry about this, and let him be vigilant so that he won't be fooled." George handed the broom to Fred and hurried to find Harry.
He has already guessed that Umbridge's purpose is to let everyone relax their vigilance in order to seize the handle of the Anti-Toad Alliance and the Defense Association.
It can only be said that most people are forgetful, especially when faced with things that have nothing to do with them. Now, many students are turning their attention to the next Hogsmeade weekend, which happens to be the Valentine's Day holiday. Many couples are planning to spend Valentine's Day in Hogsmeade Village.
Albert watched all this silently. When will Umbridge make a bad move?
Probably...won't make everyone wait too long.
No way, the number of DA gatherings today is too large. Once the number is too large, the difficulty of keeping secrets will increase rapidly, especially when everyone is less prepared.
It's not too easy to grab Harry's tail, especially the acronym for DA, it's really hard not to make an association.
Unless Harry goes to Umbridge and sets up a legal DA club, but this is undoubtedly a sheep's mouth, and there is no return.
Nobody is stupid.
After some discussion, everyone decided to set up a Defense Against the Dark Arts study group to test Umbridge's attitude.
Strangely enough, the Defence Against the Dark Arts study group was allowed, with the only requirement being not to practice dark magic, and not to use curses indiscriminately in school.
After some discussion, everyone finally changed the name of the "Defense Association" into a Defense Against the Dark Arts Study Group, so that the gathering could be carried out normally and legally without worrying about being targeted by Umbridge.
This time, even Harry was confused.
No way, everything was like a dream, as if everything was back to normal.
Hermione even suspended the original plan for Umbridge, and some of the previously sorted information fell into Albert's hands.
"You guys help me send these things to Rita Skeeter first." Albert was very surprised at the innocence of this group of people, maybe students who haven't been beaten by society are like this.
"If all this is really faked by a toad, it's really terrible." Lee Jordan muttered after taking the document.
"It's normal. She has been in the Ministry of Magic since graduating from school. If she doesn't even have this scheming, why do you think she can become the Director of the Office of Prohibition of Abuse of Magic before she turns 30 and climb to this position?" Ai Burt was amused by the innocence of the crowd, but he was a little helpless. Perhaps, the same was true of his former self.
Fortunately, several of his roommates didn't look so stupid after being influenced by him.
Regardless of whether Umbridge is disguised or not, going to Hogsmeade for Valentine's Day over the weekend has dominated the discussion among the students, and no one has turned against Toad anymore. Even Peeves was persuaded by Albert and didn't go looking for it again. Umbridge was in trouble, as if all had passed with the wind.
But, is all this really over?
I don't think so.
"Are you really going to do that?"
Hermione already knew that Albert still didn't intend to give up, all plans were still going on in an orderly manner, they had made an appointment with Rita Skeeter, and Luna had also established a relationship, "The Quibbler" was willing to A whole issue is set aside for this article.
"Be prepared, even if you don't need it, it doesn't matter. It's just a fee for Miss Beetle, and what I need most now is Galleon." Albert's words caused Ron next to him to open his mouth. Finally, I don't know where to look.
"All that Umbridge looks like in disguise?" Harry asked.
"What do you think?" Albert asked.
"I think so, but now that the Defense Against the Dark Arts study group is considered a legal gathering, what can she do to us?" This is where Harry is most puzzled. They are no longer illegal. If so, Ukrainian What is Murich planning?
"Don't ask me about this kind of thing, think and guess for yourself." Albert continued to flip through the Defense Against the Dark Arts notebook at hand.
This is where he got it from Professor Flitwick, a note left by the former dueling champion, which contains many of Professor Flitwick's thoughts and experiences.
"Do you think Hogwarts will fall in the future?" Hermione no longer bothered about the previous matter, but asked her own doubts.
"The odds are very high. In the prophecy, the Ministry of Magic has collapsed. If You-Know-Who really controls the Ministry of Magic, it is easy to influence Hogwarts." Albert answered Hermione's question calmly, as if it were only a sparse The usual little things.
"I felt like my brain was messed up by Snape, and learning Occlumency didn't make me... In short, I had nightmares more often than before." Harry also expressed his confusion.
"You yourself thought about blocking the connection between you, didn't you?" Albert bluntly pierced Harry's mind, "If you really want to learn Occlumency, you have to spend more time, More energy to study hard, rather than half-understood, it will be worse."
"Harry, Professor Dumbledore hopes you can learn Occlumency to protect yourself from the influence of the mysterious man." Hermione persuaded bitterly after several people left the Room of Requirement.
"Hermione, you don't understand how bad it feels, the powerlessness of being constantly invaded and being watched, and I've been trying to learn it, but to no avail." Harry I have to admit that I may have no talent for Occlumency.
Of course, it might also have something to do with Harry trying to figure out what happened to the hallway he saw over and over again in his dream.
"I think Albert's right, Umbridge may have some secrets, Hermione, what do you think..." Harry quickly changed the subject.
Ron noticed Hermione stopped and looked at the end of the hallway, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
"nothing?"
Hermione saw a somewhat familiar figure heading towards the Room of Requirement, and she thought it was most likely their student council president.
Even though Katrina was the sister of Albert's girlfriend, Hermione always felt that those two might have... a woman's intuition.
"Hermione?" Harry called.
"By the way, Harry, have we forgotten about Hagrid?"
This time it was Hermione's turn to digress.
"What?" Harry and Ron were both puzzled.
"Hagrid is still under observation, and we can use this to test Umbridge."
"Do you really want to go?"
Harry didn't really want to go to Umbridge, and even though she was harmless now, Harry still didn't want to go to the Defence Against the Dark Arts office, which would give him a bad memory.
"We've got to go and ask Hagrid about the observation," Hermione said to Harry. "You don't want Hagrid to be expelled, do you?"
"Ok!"
After much hesitation, Harry finally agreed. The three walked towards the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, and soon rang Umbridge's office, and said their intentions under Umbridge's surprised eyes.
"As long as Hagrid doesn't bring any dangerous magical creatures into the classroom, I think he can stay in the school." When confronted with the question of the three of Harry, Umbridge gave a very confusing answer. Eucalyptus.
However, this made Harry and the three find no fault.
Because Hagrid did have a bad case of bringing hippogriffs and bomb-tailed snails to class, Umbridge didn't even know that Hagrid had dragons, three-headed dogs, and probably still in the Forbidden Forest. There is a giant hidden in it.
"What do you think?"
After leaving the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, Hermione asked.
"I can't tell, but her smile still makes me sick." Harry still didn't like Umbridge, the fake smile.
"Actually, I think worrying about Hagrid being fired is purely superfluous, don't forget the old liar, that guy is still waiting for Toad to go back to Hogwarts to continue his job, even if Hagrid is really fired, unless it's not Dumbledore Be the headmaster, otherwise he will definitely let Hagrid continue to serve." Ron reminded, "I am more worried about what Hagrid is hiding in the Forbidden Forest, we better remind him, and Dumbledore knows about this Is it the matter?"
"Isn't Dumbledore the headmaster? Shouldn't it be..." Hermione suddenly thought of something, had a bad premonition, and immediately walked in the other direction.
"Hermione, where are you going?" Harry asked, looking at Hermione who hurried away. "Aren't we going to find Hagrid together?"
"I suddenly remembered something, see you later."
Hermione hurriedly returned to the Room of Requirement, intending to chat with Albert, just now, she suddenly had a terrible guess.
When Hermione arrived on the eighth floor, she quickly found that the Room of Requirement couldn't get in. She tried several times, and the door of the Room of Requirement opened by itself.
She was stunned, opened her mouth slightly, stretched out her hands and pushed the door in.
In the room, Katrina was practicing magic, and Albert was apparently teaching each other himself.
For some reason, Hermione felt a little pantothenic, didn't it mean that she didn't have time to teach others about Defense Against the Dark Arts?
"Is something wrong?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded.
Katrina also stopped practicing magic and cast a suspicious look at Hermione.
Hermione froze for a moment, looked at Katrina, and talked about what happened when they went to Umbridge.
"She didn't agree to anything. UU read www.uukanshu.com" Albert thought that Hermione might have other reasons for finding him, but he still reminded, "In fact, most of the verbal words can't be taken seriously, even if they bring A signed contract doesn't necessarily work either."
"that"
Hermione glanced at Katrina, but in the end she didn't ask, she was actually afraid of getting the worst answer.
"You are really welcome."
After Hermione left in a hurry, Katrina asked curiously, "I've always been curious, Yin Zebel is not angry, jealous?"
"Because good boys are always popular, because she knows that no one can take me away from her, so why is she angry, why is she jealous?" Albert turned his head and asked, as if he was just telling the truth.
Katrina ignored Albert and continued to hurry up to practice magic. Albert did not have much time to guide her personally, so he had to hurry up.
