The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

After reading the letter, Link's eyes became a little cold.

The content of Percy's letter is actually very simple. As a spy inserted into Fudge's organization by Link, he noticed some secrets, and then wanted to use early warning to help his brother get through the difficulties.

But the information revealed to Link was that his ambition and the purpose of a series of events were no longer a secret in the eyes of some people.

Just imagine.

If a little person like Percy can obtain such information, then to what extent can other people with far better information channels and abilities than him grasp the matter?

Under such circumstances, can his plan still go as smoothly as expected?

Link was silent, with a serious and cold expression on his face. Harry and Hermione, who were so depressed that they wanted to plead for Ron, both quietly closed their mouths. They felt that Link gave people a feeling similar to that of Mike at this moment. Professor Ge has a completely different and powerful oppression.

After a long time, Link closed the letter.

Of course, he didn't return the letter to Ron, but put it in his pocket.

Link has always been a rather cautious person.

He planned to return the letter to Percy in person when he had the opportunity later.

This is both a warning to Percy and a signal to Percy that his family is not trustworthy.

Link knew Percy too well, or he knew a beast of power like Percy too well.

This kind of person can be regarded as a very pure egoist.

Even though he did something stupid like sending a letter to warn Ron, the original motivation that drove him to do this was not how much he really cared about his family, but for self-satisfaction—to eliminate the guilt he felt towards his family. , and generate emotional value.

Once he learns that the letter he sent to warn Ron and his family may cause substantial damage to his interests, people like Percy will immediately wake up, immediately cut off any connection with his family, and become the two-eyed man again They were all blinded by the word "profit" and only focused on the beasts charging forward.

The majestic aura gathered around Link was slowly dissipating, which caused Harry and others to feel a sudden reduction in pressure.

"Ron, I've read the letter. Where did you come to the conclusion that I deceived you?"

Link said expressionlessly.

As he spoke, the restraint on Ron's head had been lifted, and an angry Ron said loudly:

"Does this need to be said? If he is really from our side, how can he tell me not to associate with Harry? He also said some stupid things about Dumbledore's resignation! The most outrageous thing is that he wants me to listen to Umri What did that old witch say? Do you know what she did to Harry? I think Percy is not a spy at all, but a complete traitor! And! He wants me to be careful about you! From this, you are not either What a good thing!”

"It's unreasonable," Link said with a frown, "You said Percy is a traitor who cannot be trusted, but then you think he can be trusted when he says he must be careful about me. What is your logic?"

As soon as these words came out, Ron's face turned even redder, and he opened his mouth to continue speaking.

But Link waved his hand and directly restored the restraint on his head:

"Because of our past friendship, I don't want to argue with you. Take him out of here."

As soon as Link finished speaking, the house elves immediately waved their fingers, causing Ron to levitate and be taken out of the corridor together with the rest of the construction debris.

Link didn't have time to argue with Ron.

Just like Link said before, Ron's logic is now in chaos and his words are completely unreasonable.

Coupled with the strong hostility exuding from the other party, Ron's behavior seemed to be deliberately causing trouble with this letter.

The reason for this cannot be understood just from the current Ron.

Watching Ron and the house elves disappear at the end of the corridor, Link's eyes fell on Harry and Hermione again.

"What the hell is going on here?"

Link asked in a softer tone.

Hearing this, Harry shook his head with a wry smile, while Hermione explained with some annoyance:

"Ron has gone crazy since the last time we went to George and Fred's black workshop to order them to make rectifications! He insists that we lured you there specifically to destroy the good things he and his brothers have done, and have a good relationship with us. If you have a bad temper, you won't listen no matter how we explain it.

If it's just like this, forget it. We don't just know that he likes to lose his temper. He will get better after a while.

But something happened in George and Fred's workshop in the past two days.This time not only was the workshop stopped, but George and Fred were severely punished by Professor McGonagall.Moreover, your new factory is being renovated with great fanfare.

After Ron heard the news, he thought that you were deliberately messing with his brothers in order to steal business.

Then, it got out of hand. "

After saying this, Hermione glared at Link with some resentment.

The purpose of taking Link to George and Fred's black workshop last time was to stop the Weasley brothers' bad behavior in time, but in the end, Link just gave an order for rectification in an understatement.

So in Hermione's opinion, Link was also responsible for the big incident between George and Fred a few days ago.

Even these combined with Link's strange behavior of preparing to open a factory really make people doubt whether Link is really trying to steal business as Ron thought.

Of course, Hermione herself knew that this was completely illogical, but fueled by resentment, she still couldn't help but think like this.

"I'm afraid there are quite a few people who think the same as Ron Weasley, right?"

At this moment, Emily, who had been silent beside Link, said with a smile.

Hermione could naturally tell that there was something else in Emily's words.

However, she didn't feel guilty when her ridiculous idea was called out. She frowned and retorted:

"Do you Slytherins always think everyone is as bad as you?"?

After Emily finished speaking, the smile on her face became even brighter, she reached out and took Link's arm and said:

"Do you dare to swear that you didn't think that way?"

"you……"

Hermione was so angry that she was speechless.

But she also knew that she was no match for Emily in terms of eloquence, so she could only ignore Emily and said to Link:

"Link, I never thought of it that way. The other students were the same. They were very angry after knowing the actual situation in George and Fred's workshop. Now George and Fred are simply in Hogwarts. Just like a rat crossing the street, everyone yelled and beat him up, and Ron was also implicated in some ways. And this is one of the reasons why Ron is so angry."

Link nodded and said nothing, but Cedric next to him snorted coldly when he heard this:

"As a stakeholder of George and Fred's black workshop, it's normal for Ron Weasley to dislike us, and we don't care what he thinks. But we will never allow him to slander us!

I will report today's events to Principal Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall. It is simply ridiculous that such a person can be elected as a prefect! "

Even a fool could understand the meaning behind Cedric's words.

Hermione's expression suddenly changed when she heard this, and she said hurriedly:

"Don't! President Cedric, Ron was just impulsive. He didn't really want to do anything!"

Cedric shook his head, completely unmoved.

At this time, the expression on Harry's face was a bit tangled and hesitant.

Emily and Cedric were both looking at him with interest.

They all knew exactly what Harry was hesitating about.

On the one hand, it is the morality of friends, but on the other hand, it is the imbalance in the heart.

What will Harry choose?

Emily and Cedric were both curious.

Only Link showed little interest in this.

Because he knew Harry far better than anyone here.

It's normal for Harry to hesitate, but if he really chooses to abandon Ron, then he won't be Harry Potter.

Sure enough, that look of hesitation only stayed on Harry's face for a short moment before being replaced by determination.

He took a deep breath and said to Link:

"Link, Ron is my friend and your friend. You should be able to understand that he is just, just..."

Harry couldn't speak anymore, and Link answered naturally:

"Of course I understand what the status of prefect means to him. Don't worry, Cedric just wants to warn him and doesn't really want to do anything."

After saying this, Link looked at Cedric, who nodded in understanding.

Link continued:

"But it's not an option to continue to let him get into trouble. Well, since he can't listen to what we say, then I'll try to contact George and Fred and ask them to persuade him. After all, they are brothers."

As soon as these words came out, Harry and Hermione's expressions became a little strange while relaxing.

They all know how bad George and Fred's characters are, and this kind of behavior is basically their daily operation.

Link asked the two of them to persuade Ron.

The effect must be there, but Ron may not be too happy.

But this is the best result they can achieve.

Hermione and Harry looked at each other and smiled and thanked Link.

Link waved his hand and said:

"But there is one thing I am very concerned about. According to Ron, Umbridge seems to have done some very bad things to Harry?"

Harry's expression suddenly became stiff, obviously he didn't want to say anything.

Hermione was a little angry when she saw this, and grabbed his right hand directly, showing the back of Harry's hand in front of everyone.

Everyone looked at it curiously, only to see that there was nothing special about the back of the hand except for a reddish mark.

"That's enough Hermione, there's no need to say that."

Harry, who had a gloomy expression, was about to withdraw his hand as he spoke, but Hermione angrily explained to everyone:

"You should all know that Harry has to go to Umbridge's office every night for a whole week to be locked up, right? But do you know what punishment Umbridge gave Harry during the lockdown?"

The empathetic Cedric answered 'What'?

"It's writing! Umbridge asked Harry to keep writing the words 'I must not lie'!" Hermione was so angry that she was shaking. "Of course, writing itself is nothing, but the key is that Umbridge is Harry had tampered with his pen! Every time Harry wrote a letter, wounds of the same shape would appear on the back of his hand, as if someone had carved them with a scalpel! These wounds usually healed and disappeared quickly. , but the pain has always stayed on Harry's body!"

While Hermione was speaking, Harry had already withdrawn his right hand and covered it tightly with his left hand.

If you look carefully, you can also see that his right hand is shaking unconsciously.

Obviously, this suffocating pain has been deeply imprinted in his brain, so much so that whenever he thinks of the scene at that time, phantom pain will appear in the scar area.

"You're talking about this kind of quill pen, right?"

Emily said suddenly.

In her hand she also held a long, slender black quill pen with a particularly sharp tip.

"No, that's right!"

Harry stammered, his right hand shaking even more.

"This is a Honduran vampire finch. The feathers of this dangerous magical creature have a rather vicious ability. They can easily cut open the skin of other animals and automatically absorb the blood in the wound directly into the body through the hollow tubes in the feathers. ." Emily said quietly, "And the quill made of this kind of vampire bird feathers naturally has the same effect. If you add powerful healing magic, then a perfect pen specially used to punish wrongdoers. The props are made.

Using this kind of quill pen to copy sentences was the most popular method used to educate students more than ten years ago.The effect can be said to be immediate.Because those sentences you said you copied will be forever imprinted in your mind together with the severe pain, making you unable to forget them even if you want to! "

"How did you know so clearly?"

Hermione asked with a suspicious look on her face.

She had some doubts that Emily had used this quill to torture others.

In her opinion, a Slytherin house boss like Emily could definitely do such a thing.

But Link realized something, and held Emily's right hand that had begun to tremble slightly with a distressed look on his face.

Emily smiled at Lin Keqiang and then said:

"Because I was punished as a child."

Link squeezed Emily's hand a little harder.

And Hermione immediately exclaimed, covered her mouth and said with a guilty look:

"I'm sorry, I didn't know...I meant..."

"Needless to say, this is not your fault." Emily shook her head, and then said to Link with a firm expression, "Just because I have experienced it myself, I understand how heartbreaking this kind of punishment is. So. , Link, we must not let Umbridge continue to punish students in this way!"

Now Hermione became even more ashamed, and even Harry, who had always had a prejudiced attitude towards Slytherin, looked at Emily gratefully.

When Link heard this, he turned to look at the other side of the corridor and said slowly:

"Now is not the time to say that."

"Link, what do you mean?"

Harry said angrily.

Link's weird attitude really made him feel angry.

However, in the face of his questioning, Link just made a silence gesture towards him, and then continued to look at the other side of the corridor.

Harry almost laughed in anger. He was about to say something, but he only heard a crisp and rhythmic sound of high heels tapping the ground.

Everyone looked towards the source of the sound, which was the direction Link was pointing.

Then they saw Umbridge slowly walking towards them with a false smile on her face.
