Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

"I disagree!"

Umbridge roared, because she was too angry, she was swaying all over.

However, now that the entire auditorium was in a carnival, no one cared about her speech at all, and Dumbledore, who was surrounded by the crowd in the center in the distance, didn't even look at her.

In desperation, Umbridge could only use the Loud Voice Charm.

This time, Dumbledore finally heard her voice, and saw that he turned his head and looked at Umbridge in surprise, as if wondering why she appeared here.

"I don't agree, Dumbledore!" Umbridge repeated again, "I managed to get Hogwarts back on track, and I can't let you make it the same bad way it was! "

"Oh! Umbridge, you have misunderstood me. Everything I do, for the same purpose as yours, is for the students to have a good learning environment," said Dumbledore, "but I have to Say, you did go a little too far in some things, like firing Professor Trelawney. I admit that Professor Trelawney doesn't act like a serious professor at times, and you're also expelling her for that. Yes, but at the same time you have to know one thing. Divination is an extremely esoteric subject, and it is very difficult to find a suitable professor of divination. So I think that before we fire Trelawney, we must first To find a better candidate than her, isn't it? Otherwise, what are you going to do with the classmates who have signed up for the divination class now?"

Umbridge stood dumbfounded, she wanted to refute, but Dumbledore's reason was so impeccable that she was speechless.

At the same time, she is also very clear that she is indeed unreasonable when it comes to the punishment room and the temporary inspectors. If she really wants to go her own way, then the parents of those students are likely to tear her to shreds.

Then the only benefit that can be won is the ban on associations.

Umbridge thought so, gasping for breath:

"Well, I agree with your decision to recall Trelawney, but I will never budge on the club ban!"

"Professor Umbridge, I think you must not have heard what I said before. I am not saying to directly veto your club ban, I know that some clubs in Hogwarts do have some problems, so I only There are plans to reopen Quidditch schools and competitions. I'm sure you won't say no to that, will you?"

Hearing this, Umbridge's complexion became darker. Her most fundamental mission at Hogwarts was to stop Dumbledore from secretly cultivating her own organization.

And once the ban on the association is opened, then according to her experience, all her efforts during this period will be in vain, which is unbearable for him no matter what.

However, when she was about to refute, she caught a glimpse of Dumbledore's eyes at this moment.

It was a look with strong dissatisfaction and anger, and when he was swept away by this look, Umbridge's hot heart quickly cooled down.

At the same time, she finally remembered, and now standing in front of her is one of the strongest men in the wizarding world - Dumbledore!

That is an existence that can turn itself into flying ash by simply waving its hand!

What kind of medicine did he take to be arrogant in front of him?

Under Dumbledore's powerful pressure, Umbridge's face turned pale, his body trembled like chaff, and finally he turned around and ran away.

And everyone in the auditorium cheered when they saw Umbridge's embarrassed fleeing back, and even the unsmiling Professor McGonagall in the past had a smile on his face.

"Okay, everyone!" Dumbledore waved, "It's not the time to celebrate, we have one more important thing to do - to demolish the punishment room!"

When everyone heard the words, they poured out of the auditorium and walked towards the punishment room cheering.

Hogwarts' correctional room, like the Potions professor, is located in the basement of the castle, and it fits almost perfectly with all the fantasies of a prison cell—damp, dark, dirty.

On the walls of the punishment room were many strange-shaped torture instruments, not only ordinary ropes and chains, but also many sharp weapons.

Unlike ordinary torture tools, most of these torture tools are magical.

For example, the rope above can automatically tie people up, and sharp tools such as knives and nails have additional functions including automatic cleaning.

The students at Hogwarts have arguably suffered greatly over the past few weeks, and it is natural to see these culprits now with rage.

"Smash them!"

No one in the crowd suddenly shouted such a sentence, and then the scene went out of control. Everyone rushed up and started to destroy everything in the punishment room, even the floor in the room.

Dumbledore stood not far away and smiled at all this, with no intention of stopping.

And beside him, this is Filch, who is hunched over and trembling.

The torture tools in the punishment room were all left by the previous headmaster. These things were originally to be disposed of, but he kept them privately and maintained them carefully, hoping that they would see the light of day again one day and be used for them. Punish the disobedient students.

It can be said that the reason why Umbridge's correctional room can be built so smoothly is largely due to Filch's credit.

If he hadn't contributed so many well-preserved torture instruments, Umbridge's correctional room might not have been completed until now.

So Filch at this moment was extremely panicked. If Dumbledore really wanted to ask his disciples to ask for guilt, he would probably be kicked out of Hogwarts!

However, what Filch feared the most did not happen, until the correctional room was completely destroyed, and the Slytherins also took off their green armbands representing rights. Dumbledore did not mention anything about punishing him.

Dumbledore just tapped Filch on the shoulder and announced it was lunchtime!

The house elves also obviously received news of Dumbledore's return in advance, so today's lunch at Hogwarts became particularly rich, almost a small banquet.

This undoubtedly took the already joyful atmosphere to the next level, as Franklin nibbled on the drumstick while telling Mike over and over again that he would be back on the Quidditch pitch soon.

There were many people who were just as excited as Franklin. Everyone talked freely while eating the food. The whole auditorium was filled with laughter and laughter from the students.

In such a scene of singing and dancing, Mike discovered a different place.

Harry!

Harry at the Gryffindor table did not bulge his mouth full of food like Ron next to him, but covered his forehead with one hand and bowed his head in silence.

In an instant, Mike thought of a possibility, and a smile appeared on his face.

...

"Harry, I noticed something strange about you at noon. Are you feeling unwell?"

In the afternoon, at the Hogwarts foyer, Mike stopped Harry, who had changed into a suit and was about to go to Quidditch training with his companions.

After hearing Mike's words, the surrounding Gryffindor school team members turned their attention to Harry.

"Uh, I'm just a little tired. I didn't sleep well last night." Harry looked a little ugly. "You know, headaches and nightmares. But don't worry, it's an old problem. Madam Pomfrey had a problem last year. I've seen it."

The smile on Mike's face flashed away, and he changed into a worried expression and asked:

"Nightmare? What kind of nightmare?"

Harry's eyes swept across the people around him, he hesitated for a moment before saying a little embarrassedly:

"I dreamed that I became a snake, a python. In the dream, I seemed to enter a room, and then I kept crawling in it, and kept crawling."

The Gryffindors around him showed strange expressions. You must know that snakes are the symbolic animals of Slytherin. Harry, a Gryffindor, would dream that he had become a snake. This is not true. What a good sign.

Mike, who was on the side, grabbed Harry and dragged him into the castle with all his strength.

"Wait! Wait, Mike! What are you doing?"

"Of course I'll take you to Dumbledore. It's not easy for you!"

"But I still have to train!"

Mike stopped, turned his head and looked blankly at the Gryffindors beside him and said:

"I'm taking Harry to see a doctor, are you okay with that?"

Everyone in Gryffindor shook their heads quickly, not to mention that Mike's reason was very normal, and just based on Mike's strength and prestige, they did not dare to refute Mike.

Seeing this, Harry was helpless and could only follow Mike slowly into the castle again.

Then the two first went to visit Professor McGonagall, and then they were brought to the principal's office by Professor McGonagall.

Due to the busy work, Professor McGonagall left after entering the password, and when Mike and Harry entered the principal's room, a beautiful flaming red bird flew on Mike's shoulder.

Harry was stunned. He also knew Dumbledore's Phoenix, Fox.

But he has yet to see Fox close to anyone other than Dumbledore.

"Oh! Two gentlemen, please sit down, I should have some candy here." Dumbledore stood up from behind the eagle-footed table, "Mike, it's so funny that Fox still likes you so much. "

Although he was reluctant to come at first, Harry was still extremely excited after seeing Dumbledore.

"Headmaster Dumbledore!" Harry said excitedly, "Where have you been all this time!"

"This question is a long story. I went to visit an old friend. Since he is in a very remote place, you can't contact me." Dumbledore's hand holding the candy and refreshments froze slightly, "then Now, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Harry's headaches are getting worse and he's even been having nightmares recently."

While talking, Mike took out fresh Bai Xian from his pocket and fed it to Phoenix Fox.

Dumbledore's expression suddenly became serious and asked:

"What kind of nightmare?"

"Uh, I turned into a python, and then crawled around a room." Harry shivered as he spoke, as if he would remember the feeling at that time, "I even rubbed its scales against the ground. I can feel the touch, that dream is so real, it's so real that I'm a little horrified!"

"Apart from that? Are there any other symptoms?"

"There's also a headache, and my scars are hurting again recently. But I guess it shouldn't matter? After all, I showed Mrs. Pomfrey last year, and she said it was probably because of my psychological pressure. too big."

Dumbledore didn't answer, he lowered his head in thought, and Harry, who had not received a positive answer in the eerie silence, was full of nervousness.

Mike, who was beside him, was watching Dumbledore seriously.

Mike is actually clear about the principle of Harry's dream. Harry, as one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, actually has some kind of ideological link with Voldemort.

In other words, Harry's dreams were largely Voldemort's thoughts.

And now the dream that Harry is having, if there is no accident, its follow-up development should be the plot of Voldemort's serpent Nagini going to attack Arthur Weasley.

Originally the plot wasn't important, but now it's different.

You must know that the python Nagini is actually one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, and because he stayed with Voldemort all the year round, it can be said to be one of the most difficult to destroy Horcruxes.

If Nagini is really alone in attacking Arthur Weasley this time, then this is the best time to get rid of it.

Of course, in order to improve the success rate of the plan, Mike also needs the help of Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix.

This is why Mike brought Harry to visit Dumbledore in the first place.

"I see, Harry." Dumbledore said after a moment of silence, "your situation is very special, and you have been under a lot of pressure recently. So let's do it, you don't have to go to Umbridge for the time being. The professor has received confinement punishment, and Quidditch training needs to stop, so you can concentrate on studying and resting during this time."

Hearing this, Harry quit immediately. You must know that he is the Seeker of Gryffindor. If you lack him, the entire team can be said to be suspended.

So Harry immediately said:

"But we're going to play soon!"

"Harry, I know you're dying to win a Quidditch match, but I think your body is more important than the trophy."

"Mike is right." Dumbledore shook his head helplessly, "Well, Harry. Let's observe for a while, just so you can rest for a while. If your condition improves, then you can continue to participate. Training, of course, and confinement. And if your condition worsens, I'm sorry, but I may have to put you on temporary leave for treatment at St Mungo's."

Hearing this, Harry's face was ashen, and Mike's expression on the side was not very good-looking.

Now it seems that Dumbledore is obviously not aware of the seriousness of the matter, and he even thinks that Harry's symptoms are entirely because he was hit in the head by the Death Curse as a child.

Shaking his head, Mike has made up his mind.

If Dumbledore is still as indifferent this time as in the original book, then he will have to act alone!
