Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 1036: omen

  Chapter 1036 Omen

"If you have time, you should take a good look at the education order hanging on the notice wall instead of complaining to me about these problems. Even if you complain to me, I can't help you solve the problem. If you have any problems, just contact me directly. Go to the senior investigator, she has that power. If you want to beg our senior investigator to lift the bans of Potter and the Weasley brothers, I suggest you take the time to re-select new players."

Facing Captain Quidditch's request for help, Professor McGonagall's tone was very calm. She also knew Angelina's difficulties, but Professor McGonagall really couldn't do anything about it. Even if Toad has been miserable recently, she is still a senior investigator. It will not violate the laws of the Ministry of Magic on the surface.

  So, Angelina's attempt is doomed to fail.

   "See you later!" After greeting Albert, Fred chased after Angelina and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

   "Albert, wait a moment."

  Albert looked away from the end of the corridor, and when he was about to go to the ancient magic pattern classroom, Cedric came out from behind and walked side by side with him on the promenade, attracting the attention of many girls.

   "What's the matter?" Albert asked.

   "I've been in some trouble recently."

   Cedric raised his hand and pointed to the corner on the right, and the two turned into an empty classroom with no one next to them.

   "Why, Qiu is breaking up with you?" Albert teased.

   "No, our relationship is very good." Cedric shook his head immediately.

   "Then when will you get married?" Albert continued to ask.

   "Married...?" Cedric was a little embarrassed.

   "Or, are you just going to play a love game?" Albert continued to tease the embarrassed Cedric.

   "Of course not." Cedric said doubtfully, "But... isn't it too early to think about getting married now?"

   "It's not too early, if you can find someone you like, you have to cherish it."

"you're right."

   Cedric seemed to be seriously considering the possibility of marrying Qiu Zhang, but was completely led astray by Albert.

   "Tell me, what do you want from me."

"Ahem, I almost got you astray. It's about Umbridge, I think you should know DA too!" Cedric looked around, and after making sure no one was around, he lowered his voice and said, "I It is suspected that Umbridge already knew about the DA and was ready to take action."

   "Didn't Dumbledore's Army cause a lot of trouble before?" Albert didn't care about DA's exposure.

   "No, you know what I'm trying to say?" Cedric shook his head.

   "She doubts you?" Albert raised his eyebrows slightly, probably guessing what was going on.

"I don't know, but I received a letter from home, probably telling me to pay attention to safety, not to confront Umbridge toughly, so as not to be expelled and ruin my career." After receiving this letter, Cedric , I guessed the reason, it was nothing more than Umbridge putting pressure on her father.

   "But, how could the toad suspect you?" Albert was very puzzled, and Cedric didn't look like he had anything to do with DA.

   "It may be that the Slytherin students saw the "Guide to Self-Defense" you gave me and told Umbridge." Cedric was a little annoyed, and he didn't expect that, "I'm worried..."

   Cedric didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was already obvious.

   "Worried that Umbridge will trouble you?"

   "Yeah, that woman is really..."

   Cedric didn't like Umbridge very much, but he was helpless in certain things, just like other professors, so he chose to seek help from Albert.

   Otherwise, once exposed, you will have to bear the price of betraying DA.

   "If Umbridge is following you, it will indeed be troublesome." Albert nodded, expressing that he could understand Cedric's concerns, "That guy will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal."

"what do I do?"

   "When Toad invites you to drink tea, you have to be careful, God knows if she will add a few drops of... potion to your drink."

   "No way!" Cedric opened his mouth blankly, "It is illegal to use Veritaserum on others. She is the deputy minister, so she shouldn't..."

   "Who knows?" Albert reminded: "There has always been a saying in the magic world that as long as it is not discovered, it is not illegal."

   "What's more, she is the deputy minister, Fudge's right-hand man."

"Do something illegal in order to achieve something, as long as no one mentions it, that's it. Don't forget that bunch of **** education orders, do you think Fudge would prefer to catch Dumbledore, or give him Umbridge's trouble for her meritorious service?"

   "You're right." Cedric looked around and asked in a low voice, "How did you solve this problem?"

  He hadn't forgotten that Albert also went to Umbridge's for tea a few times.

"this is very simple."

   Albert directly gave three solutions.

   "You can get someone to mess with her, or make Umbridge forget about it, or keep some Veritaserum antidote with you."

  Cedric vaguely guessed how Albert solved Umbridge's trouble.

   He hadn't used the Oblivion Charm, though, God knows what would happen to Umbridge.

   "Do you have an antidote for Veritaserum?" Cedric asked after hesitating for a moment.

   "There is still half a bottle left, I can give you some." Albert did not refuse, he knew that if Cedric encountered Veritaserum, he would probably cause big trouble.

   "Do you think we want everyone to stop DA activities?" Cedric frowned and said, "Umbridge will definitely continue the investigation, if she wants to trouble Dumbledore."

   "If you can convince them, I have no objection." Albert doesn't care about it, but he doesn't think Cedric can succeed.

   "That guy is really annoying. If you have a way to drive her away one day, please let me know." Cedric stretched out his hand and shook his fist a few times, wishing he could punch the toad in the face.

  Before leaving, Cedric did not forget to say: "You help me tell Weasley and the others about this, let them remind Potter, and be more vigilant by the way."

"I will."

   Albert took out his pocket watch and checked the time, only to realize that he was going to be late.

  …

   "Where have you been, I haven't seen you all afternoon."

  In the evening, when Albert returned to the common room, he saw Lee Jordan smiling and greeting him. Fred and George were sitting in the corner playing with their boxes, which were full of various joke props.

  George is holding a note, and Fred is handing out dung and stink bombs. The things in the box are all gadgets they use to deal with Umbridge, many of which are joke props developed by the twins themselves, such as roaring balls, screaming frogs and so on.

  Of course, many students like to add quick-acting skipping sugar from them. No one likes Umbridge's courses. If you can skip classes, that would be great.

   "Teaching Luna, you forgot about her." Albert raised an eyebrow to remind George that he spent some time in the library answering some of Luna's questions about maintaining the Wizard Card Club.

   "If you want her to be a suitable successor, you have to invest more time and energy in her."

"There are too many things that need to be busy recently, and I have forgotten about it." Lee Jordan is indeed too busy recently. In addition to covering for the Weasley twins, he also has to spread various rumors and win over the Weasley twins. More students who hated Umbridge joined forces to take on her.

   Anti-toad alliances are very popular in schools nowadays, because no one wants toad to become the principal, it is simply a nightmare.

   "Unfortunately, we still haven't been able to drive Umbridge out of Hogwarts." Fred said regretfully.

   "It's impossible for you to drive her away."

  Albert agreed with everyone's efforts, but he didn't think they would succeed. Umbridge obviously couldn't be scared away like this, unless she was seriously injured and hospitalized.

   "Last time, Harry suggested turning Umbridge into a toad." George walked over and said, "Let her disappear completely, and then all problems will be solved."

   "This is not a good idea." Albert shook his head and rejected the proposal. To be honest, he still hates killing people, and he also hates letting a few people kill people.

   As a last resort, he would rather let Umbridge accidentally become the next Lockhart and let her live "happily" forever, rather than kill her.

   "You can spread rumors, just say that Dumbledore has a training base in the Forbidden Forest, where they train their army." Albert said without thinking: "Let the toad and the acromantula harm each other!"

   "Do you think Toad would believe it?"

  Lee Jordan feels that this plan is very unreliable, because the possibility of Toad's belief is very low.

"Isn't there Dumbledore's Army in the school?" Albert reminded, "Hagrid made those acromants. Dumbledore can give Hagrid an order, indirectly ordering the group of acromants to stop. Something's wrong!"

   "This kind of rumor doesn't sound very reliable." Lee Jordan frowned again.

"Rumours are unreliable. It doesn't matter if the toad doesn't believe it if it spreads. Anyway, as long as everyone believes it." George agreed with Albert's plan unscrupulously, "Maybe Fudge will definitely send someone over to take a look. As for the follow-up What happens next, we don’t care about our business, not to mention, even if they don’t believe it, we won’t suffer.”

"Letting the Ministry of Magic clean up the group of big spiders is also a good deed for the students of Hogwarts." Fred also supported Albert's suggestion. He did not forget the fact that he was almost eaten by spiders. And this plan is actually very simple, it is nothing more than spreading more rumors.

   How to spread rumors, the three are actually very good at it, and they have done it a lot in recent months.

   Rumors are talked about too much, even if you don't believe it, you will have doubts, doubts are enough, and you will definitely pay attention to Umbridge, who is anxious to grab Dumbledore's handle, and then he will naturally take the bait.

"are you OK!"

   Albert did not participate in the discussion between the three of them, and looked at Angelina with a tired face.

   "Not good, very bad," Angelina tore off her cloak listlessly, staring at Fred and George reproachfully.

   "We have found a substitute." Aliya said distressedly,

   "But... it can only be regarded as very reluctant." Katie muttered

   "They are just inexperienced. You can't expect everyone to be a Quidditch genius." Albert comforted.

"You are the least qualified to do this." Angelina gave Albert a hard look, and said impatiently, "If you want, we can save a lot of trouble, at least we can have a higher chance in the subsequent games win."

   "You know, I'm busy and don't have time to train." Albert said indifferently.

   "Who are the substitutes?" Fred asked curiously.

"The new Seeker is your sister Ginny," Angelina said dissatisfiedly, "She flies well and was originally a substitute for the Chaser, but since we couldn't find a more suitable Seeker, we had to Let her do it first."

  Angelina suspected that Albert had recommended Ginny to her because he was worried that she would let him play.

  It must be so!

"Andrew Kirk and Jack Sloper are the new batsmen off the bat." Alicia was a little depressed, "They are both a little slow, but better than the other woods, and they are the best batsmen we can find so far. "

"Ron's condition has not been very good. The last competition hit him hard." Angelina found a chair and sat down, complaining: "I doubt how I can lead everyone to win the first prize." Victory in the odd game."

   The Gryffindor team is almost unable to survive, which is why Angelina went to find Professor McGonagall.

  The first Ron was enough, but now there are three new players, Angelina can't believe how she can win with three oil bottles.

   "How about discussing with other teams and giving up the Quidditch match?" Lee Jordan secretly glanced at the tired Angelina and suggested.

   Not only him, but even others are not optimistic about the current team.

   Everyone knows how bad Ron's performance is. But Angelina still patiently taught each other, because they both knew that as long as they could help Ron overcome his nervousness and rebuild his confidence, they could get a qualified goalkeeper.

   Now there are two more batters who are holding back. As for Ginny, it can only be regarded as barely holding everyone back.

   Angelina was silent.

  Honestly speaking, she didn't want to give up, even if Gryffindor lost badly in the end, she didn't want to give up. If she didn't play Quidditch for a semester, it would be hard for her to imagine how she would join the team after graduation.

  However, today's training almost made her emotionally collapse, and Angelina seemed to see the fiasco of the second game.

   "Let me calm down, by the way, Albert, I have something to ask you, shall we go over there and talk?"

   "You want me to predict whether you will join a certain Quidditch club?"

"right."

   After confirming that Angelina asked him to prophesy, Albert was a little surprised, but he seemed to be expecting it.

"If you want to join the Quidditch club, I think there should be no problem. After all, there are too many Quidditch teams in Britain and Ireland. Every year, Hogwarts freshmen are not enough to replenish their fresh blood. They always need There are new members, at least the backup, but…"

   "You haven't predicted yet." Angelina looked at Albert, "This is just your guess."

"Yes, there are some things that don't need to be predicted. I'm even more curious about whether you will join the Quidditch team. After all, after we graduate from school, the British wizarding world will not be peaceful. Moreover, I can't guarantee whether you can join the team. You are satisfied with the team."

   "Well, thank you, Albert." Angelina turned and walked away.

   "What does she want from you?" Fred, George and Lee Jordan came out of nowhere.

   "Angelina wants me to prophesy for her to see if she can join the Quidditch club after graduation and become a professional Quidditch player." Albert explained to several people.

"The results of it?"

I think it's okay to join, if she really plays Quidditch, there is always a team that can let her join, your sister Ginny should also choose to become a professional Quidditch player, but girls become professional Quidditch players Life won't be too long.

   "Why?" Lee Jordan asked curiously.

   "Why? Because they always get married!" Albert said naturally: "The choice between family and career is always a problem that many girls will encounter."

   "That's a problem," Fred muttered.

   "Oh, by the way, Cedric asked me to tell you something."

"What's up?"

   Umbridge seems to be eyeing DA.

   "We know." The three said in unison.

   "No, you don't know." Albert reminded the three who looked at them indifferently, "If she wants to find clues, she will definitely use unscrupulous methods."

   "For example?" Lee Jordan raised his eyebrows.

   "Veritaserum."

   "So, you think that Toad might..."

   "It's not possible, it's certain, if Toad really makes up his mind."
