The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

After finishing his speech, Umbridge saluted the crowd, indicating that his speech was over and it was time for the audience to applaud.

Everyone cooperated very well, giving Umbridge loud cheers and applause in unison, and everyone was beaming with joy.

Of course, their joy is more likely to come from the fact that 'Umbridge's grinding speech is finally over'.

Most people didn't care much about Umbridge's speech about rectifying the treatment of student workers and corruption in management.

I also said it before.

Those who can come to watch the ceremony at this time are basically people who have a strong desire for money.

For these people, everything other than practical interests is meaningless.

Moreover.

Everyone felt that what Umbridge said was nothing more than beautiful words she threw out to support the scene.

After all, after getting along with each other for this period of time, Umbridge's teaching methods have caused people with discerning eyes to label her as a 'paper talker' or a 'practicalist'.

Such a person will seriously do those practical things?

Go dreaming!

John and Cedric were probably the only two on the scene who really took Umbridge's speech seriously.

Especially the content of the so-called rectification of corruption in the other party's mouth, which has almost clearly expressed Umbridge's desire to take the opportunity to rectify Link.

Fortunately, all of these have been guessed by them.

And Link also gave a detailed countermeasure for this.

Who can have the last laugh is really uncertain.

John and Cedric smiled at each other, and then the latter hurried forward to take Umbridge, who had finished speaking, back to the backstage, while the former put his wand against his throat again and announced:

"This is the end of today's opening ceremony, and the rest of the job fair and announcement of jobs and benefits will be carried out by our staff."

While speaking, John pointed to an office with an open door on the side, and then quickly chased after Cedric.

In the office he was referring to, four Hufflepuff Year 7 prospective graduates were waiting.

These people are all Cedric's classmates, and belong to the related households who entered the factory through Cedric's way.

Their ability to get through the relationship with Cedric has already proved their ability and character.

However, Cedric considered that they needed to focus more on their studies and job hunting after graduation as they were approaching graduation, so he arranged a more relaxed and lucrative personnel position for them.

On the other hand, although John's speech was as simple as ever, there was even a hint of perfunctory in his words.

But the crowd in the audience didn't care.

Everyone cheered and rushed towards the office, looking fiery and crazy.

John and Cedric are in a similar posture at the moment.

With their incomparable enthusiasm and bright smiles, Umbridge changed his plan to leave directly. Surrounded by them, he walked to the only office with a solid wood door in the factory.

John pushed the door open first, bent down and waited until Umbridge and Cedric entered one after another before closing the door again.

Compared with their attitude, Umbridge looked extremely arrogant.

She changed from being humble and gentle in her speeches before, and all the sarcasm and viciousness were written on her face.

But when she actually walked into this office, and Cedric waved his wand to turn on the lights in the room.

The expression on her face was nothing but shock!

Because what appeared in front of her at this moment was a magnificent and beautifully decorated huge office.

The most important point is that the decoration style of the entire office is based on the Office of the Minister of Magic.

Even the windows are equipped with artificial shadow magic curtains similar to those of the Ministry of Magic, allowing you to freely control the weather and scenes outside the windows.

Umbridge's body was shaking slightly.

She suppressed her anger and roared:

"Who allowed you to arrange this place like this?! You are arrogating! It is an insult to the Ministry of Magic and Mr. Minister!"

"what!?"

John pretended to be shocked and exclaimed, "But... But this is the office we specially prepared for you."

As soon as this remark came out, Umbridge's expression faltered and he said:

"mine?"

"Yes, yes, as the supervising professor of our m.o.m.h.l factory, how can you not even have an office space?" John continued, "From here on, it will be your office!"

"Oh, that's...that's not bad." Umbridge stopped shaking for a moment, "But it's too wasteful for you to make such a grand ceremony? I have an office in Hogwarts itself, It’s nothing more than a little farther away. Remember, you can’t do this in the future.”

John and Cedric said yes again and again.

But the corners of their mouths couldn't help but began to rise.

Because the reversal of Umbridge's attitude is too dramatic.

And even though the other party was still speaking high-sounding words, his eyes were involuntarily looking at the huge and gorgeous desk when he was speaking, and the greed on his face could hardly be suppressed.

But to be honest, it's not all Umbridge's fault.

You must know that Link had already used the power of the Foley family to investigate Umbridge's details long before Umbridge came to Hogwarts.

Of course, Umbridge's greed for power cannot be hidden from Link and the others.

In fact, the decoration style of this office Link originally planned to follow the idea of ​​a cute girl cat style. After all, this is what Umbridge likes. She is in Hogwarts and the office of the Ministry of Magic. style of.

Later, Link and others considered that doing so might make Umbridge aware that he was being investigated, so they changed to the style of the minister's office.

Judging from the results, it seems that the effect is equally outstanding.

After walking around the office with Umbridge, sitting in the office chair, and feeling the temperature of the fireplace, John finally said to Umbridge who was still in a state of excitement:

"Well, actually, this office was specially prepared for you by Link. For this purpose, he even brought a lot of antique furniture from the period of the Hogwarts Big Three from his home!"

While speaking, John tapped the wooden cabinet in front of him with his hand, indicating that it was the antique he was talking about.

And it was said that Umbridge was really hooked.

He raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly:

"Oh, is it?"

"Of course! You don't know, Link has been regretting the thing that contradicted you last time. Ulcers are growing in Sorrow's mouth!" Cedric said, "But you have to understand him Ah. Link's good friends Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and his fiancee Emily were all there!

Among them, Harry Potter is hostile to you. In this case, Link doesn't want to lose face in front of his friends, so he has to be tough on you! "

Umbridge sneered and said:

"Hehehe, you should let him come and tell me these words in person!"

"Oh, it's not that Link feels too embarrassed to come to see you again?" John took over the conversation and said, "But although he didn't come, his sincerity has already arrived."

After saying that, Umbridge instinctively turned his eyes to the desk again.

Then he shook his head sarcastically.

Obviously, sincerity is not enough in this office alone.

John naturally understood, and quickly smiled and put the traceless stretching spell bag Link gave him on the desk.

Wow——

The opening of the Untraceable Stretching Curse Pocket was not tightened. Following John's movements, a large number of golden Galleons printed with fire dragon patterns poured out of the opening, reflecting the golden light under the sunlight.

Umbridge only felt a golden light flash in front of his eyes, and then he couldn't look away.

At this moment, John's bewitching commentary sounded at the right time:

"Here is the sincerity of 10,000 Galleons. As long as you can forgive Link for his previous rudeness, then these are all yours."

After pausing for a while, seeing that Umbridge hadn't spoken, John continued, "Don't worry, the magic marks on the Galleons here are all unnumbered. And, ah, we are not bribing you, this is for you Salary! After all, you are going to manage us on behalf of the Ministry of Magic, how can we let you work for nothing? This ten thousand galleons is your salary for this month!"

This time, Umbridge finally responded.

Her eyes were still fixed on the gold coins on the table, but she said in a trance voice:

"Do you think it's reasonable for a part-time management professor like me to get a salary of 10,000 Galleons a month?"

"Hey! Look at me, I'm stupid! Of course it's unreasonable! It's all my fault!" John said hastily, "Even if Link gave you the money in private, we don't know anything, so it's okay Bar?"

Umbridge was silent again.

At this moment, she is engaged in a battle between heaven and man.

On the one hand, she can clearly perceive that Link's 'sincerity' behavior is not as simple as it seems on the surface, and even contains a little malice.

This is enough to see that John initially wanted to explain the bribe in the name of 'salary'.

After all, wages have to be accounted for. If the money is really marked as wages, it is tantamount to leaving evidence on the books.

At that time, Link will have her handle.

On the other hand, that's ten thousand Galleons! !

In this magical society where the average annual salary does not even have 600 Galleons, this is a huge sum of money!

Even though Umbridge itself is already considered a high salary, and she just said in her speech that she would deal with corruption, but the money is still enough to make her lose her sanity and integrity.

The most important thing is that although the plan John is currently proposing is very straightforward, Umbridge can't see any pitfalls in it.

It's as if Link just buried the pit in front with the mentality of trying. After being avoided by her, Link gave up the idea of ​​continuing to fight with her, and then tried his best to seek peace.

Of course, it is also possible that there are risks hidden in it that she has not been able to see.

But Umbridge was more willing to believe the former. After all, 10,000 Galleons was too much, enough to cover her eyes and mind.

"Hoo-hoo--"

Rapid breathing came from Umbridge's mouth.

She took several deep breaths in a row, and then as she made up her mind, she picked up the traceless stretching spell pocket on the table and stuffed it into her bosom.

"Then help me thank Mr. Link Foley, I'm still his friend!"

After speaking, Umbridge clutched his pockets and rushed towards the office door.

"Professor Umbridge, you have more here!"

Seeing this, John shouted, pointing at the gold coins on the table that Umbridge hadn't picked up.

However, Umbridge ignored him at all, and said, "These will be given to you as pocket money!" After that, he rushed out of the office as if fleeing, and went straight to the office of his original Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. run away.

This scene fell in the eyes of John and Cedric, making both of them laugh out loud.

After a long time, John, who finally regained his strength, panted heavily and asked:

"Hmm... Phew!~ Cedric, did you record everything just now?"

The other side also breathed a little fast and said:

"Oh, of course, you can rest assured."

After speaking, Cedric took out a small magic tape recorder and shook it in front of John.

"Then let's hurry up and send it to Link. He should be very happy that things are going so smoothly."

John said with a smile, and then went out with Cedric towards the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle.

This time, the place where Link and them agreed to meet was very weird, and a mysterious ceremony would even be held if they wanted to go in, which made them a little nervous despite being excited.

After all, that place can be said to be next door to the principal's office.

And until they left, there were still a large number of students gathered at the door of the office responsible for recruiting workers.

...

An hour later, the study room was in the room of Response.

Link, who was sitting on a soft chair, put down the careful magic tape recorder in his hand, and Neumrich's voice stopped abruptly.

"You guys did a great job, I really feel sorry for you."

Link said with a smile.

Emily beside him also nodded in agreement to John and Cedric when he spoke.

Such an action may seem nothing to Link, but it is too rare for others.

Because Emily's nickname on the outside is 'Cruel Ice Beauty'.

It's an absolute pleasure to have her smile at you!

However, at this moment, John and Cedric did not feel the existence of this honor at all.

Their attention was still focused on this study.

The look of looking around and touching around is exactly the same as the previous Umbridge.

Fortunately, Cedric has been a prefect for so many years, and he has seen some things in the world, so he quickly reacted and said:

"Link, this is what we should do. What I am more concerned about is, with this recording, will we be able to bring down Umbridge?"

Link nodded and said:

"This is a matter of course. Although this is just a bit of recording, and it obviously has a taste of your inducement, you only need to edit it and use the channel of "Daily Prophet" to send it out."

"Can the recording be edited?"

This time it was Emily who spoke, she was obviously hearing about this thing for the first time, her face was full of confusion.

"Recording and editing are nothing in Muggle society." Link explained, "But in the wizarding world, this technology is currently only in the hands of some newspapers in the wizarding world of the United States. It's normal for you not to know."
