Master Druid at Hogwarts

Chapter 606 The last step of the cat plan

"The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was attacked again, is it a curse or a conspiracy?"

Our special correspondent Rita Skeeter reported that the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts has always been a dangerous position, and no wizard has ever been able to hold the position safely for more than a year.

The author has already commented on the situation of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professors at Hogwarts in the past. For details, please refer to the relevant report written by the author in this year's "Daily Prophet" No. 68, second edition.

According to the author's visit, there are such rumors in Hogwarts that the mysterious man wanted to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, but he cast a curse on him in a rage, which led to Every year professors in this position have accidents.

Leaving aside the question of whether You-Know-Who's curse still works after he was defeated more than a decade ago.Judging from past experience, in previous years, the professors of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class would only have accidents after serving for one year or close to one year.

However, this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, who is also an outstanding official of the Ministry of Magic, and the newly appointed Hogwarts Senior Inquisitor, Ms. Dolores Umbridge, encountered an accident in less than a month after the start of school. Attack by unknown persons.In connection with the Ministry of Magic's educational reforms for Hogwarts a while ago, the real situation has to be thought-provoking.

"I have reason to believe that this is Dumbledore's counterattack against the Ministry of Magic." Mr. Pierce Thickness, Director of Magical Law Enforcement, said: "Dumbledore regards Hogwarts as his back garden, No one else is allowed to get involved at all.”

"Ms Umbridge was found at the door of the Headmaster's office," said a Ministry insider.

Poor Ms. Umbridge is now being treated at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries. Not only has she lost her memory of being attacked, but she has also been brutally turned into a half-human, half-frog ugly appearance by the attackers.

At present, St. Mungo's therapists have not been able to find effective treatment methods, and Ms. Umbridge seems to have some mental problems, which prevents the author from interviewing her.

"Her situation is very complicated," said the therapist in the spell damage department. "She was cast with several terrible poisonous spells and powerful transfiguration spells. There were some wonderful reactions between these spells, which let us treatment has become extremely difficult.”

"We used the intestine-extracting spell on her and found that she had drank at least three or more potions." A therapist from the Department of Potions and Plant Poisoning told the author: "And most of the potions isolated were from the past. The ones that haven’t appeared should be researched and prepared by the attacker himself, and the only thing that can be determined is the amnesia potion.”

According to the therapist of St. Mungory, it is basically impossible for people who have taken the amnesia potion to retrieve their lost memories. Therefore, if you want to know the appearance of the assailant from Ms. Umbridge, it is almost impossible. It is impossible.

We still don't know why the attacker wanted to erase Ms. Umbridge's memory. Could he be a professor at Hogwarts, or someone Ms. Umbridge knew?

Maybe the person who attacked Ms. Umbridge had some kind of ulterior relationship with the headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, but this does not dampen the determination of the Ministry of Magic to carry out educational reforms at Hogwarts .

Mr. Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic, said: "The Ministry of Magic will not be afraid to back down because of a little difficulty. The attack on Ms. Umbridge proves the necessity of reforming Hogwarts by the Ministry of Magic. We The management of Hogwarts will be further strengthened, and the "No.20 No. [-] Education Order" will be decided and launched as soon as possible!"

……

This report by Rita Skeeter was placed on the front page of today's issue of the "Daily Prophet". Next to the article, there were two photos of Umbridge.

One was her usual appearance, in her pink cardigan, smiling and blinking at them.

The other is Umbridge's half-human, half-frog appearance. She is wearing a large hospital gown. In the photo, she is covering her face with her hands in a panic, but because of the toad The face was too huge, and she couldn't block it all.

Hermione put down the "Daily Prophet" in her hand.

Yesterday, when Professor McGonagall asked Fish if he had done anything else, although the little cat denied it, there was obviously something wrong with his reaction.Then, under Professor McGonagall's questioning, Fish had no choice but to admit that he also notified Rita Skeeter of what he was going to do, hoping that she could help report the matter...

Fish actually didn't think too much about it, he just wanted more people to see Umbridge's unlucky appearance.

Both Professor McGonagall and Hermione were still worried about whether Rita Skeeter would betray Fish, and Snape even proposed to rush to find her and erase her memory.

But it was stopped by Fish.

Now it seems that Skeeter has lived up to Maomao's trust, and her action efficiency is still as high as ever.

While Hermione breathed a sigh of relief, she also looked at Fisch, who was eating breakfast intently, with a complicated expression.

"Meow?"

Ψ(~)

Maomao noticed her gaze, looked sideways, and then passed the fork in her hand.

"Ah~"

"...ah~"

Hermione glanced at the steak delivered to her mouth, hesitated, and opened her mouth.

"Delicious meow?"

"Yeah." Hermione nodded with a smile.

Fish also smiled and nodded his head, then continued to munch at his desk.

Except for Hermione, the other students immediately confirmed who the real attacker was after seeing Umbridge's photo in the "Daily Prophet", and they all looked at Fish...

Then I saw the scene where the cat was feeding Hermione.

The boys are okay, but the girls are a little uncomfortable. Although they have seen it more than once, there are still many little witches who wish to replace Hermione.

After looking away from Fish, everyone continued to chat cheerfully about Umbridge's new look.She was unpopular in the first place, but now that she knew that Mao Mao did it, no one would pity her.

And Hermione asked in a low voice after swallowing the steak that Fish fed her: "Fish, can you contact Skeeter and ask her to publish a report about the resurrection of the mysterious man?"

"No way, meow."

(`~≡`~)
Maomao shook her head and said, "When Fish asked Rita for help, she told Fish that all articles that speak for Dumbledore will be returned by the editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet, meow." He pointed to the newspaper Hermione put on the table, "She also told Fish that if she really wanted the article to be published, then she had to report from the Ministry of Magic..."

"Fish thought that Albus wouldn't be afraid to add this article anyway, so he agreed, meow." Mao Mao shrugged and said indifferently.

Although he usually doesn't read newspapers at all, Hermione will read him any important news, so Maomao is very familiar with the content bias of the recent "Daily Prophet".

And after getting Fisher's answer, Hermione sighed, showing a really so expression.This situation was in her expectation, but it was a pity that the truth could not be spread.

If only I could find a newspaper that dared to go against the Ministry of Magic...

Miss Passepartout thought to herself with regret.
