The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

The person who came in this time was Umbridge.

Wearing an earth-colored cloak, she stepped into the banquet hall surrounded by a group of inspection team members as if on an outing.

"Good afternoon, gentlemen and ladies," Umbridge said in a high voice, "I hope I didn't interrupt your party."

Listening to Umbridge's greetings, both the Weasley brothers and the Ravenclaw boy's side all changed their expressions.

At present, they have not yet discussed among themselves how to deal with Umbridge exactly.

At the moment, they are still gathering illegally.

If this was strictly pursued, they would all be expelled!

But the next problem arises.

How did Umbridge get here?

You must know that this secret DA meeting was only held in a small area, and the level of confidentiality was far higher than before!

And soon, everyone's doubts were answered.

Because the Harry trio were pushed out from behind by several grinning inspection team members.

"Aha!"

A rare Slytherin DA member said with a sarcastic face, "It seems that our argument is meaningless at all, because our savior has already made a decision!"

Hearing this, Hermione couldn't bear it anymore, and she said aggrievedly:

"We originally wanted to come directly, but Umbridge...she sent someone directly to say she wanted to see Harry, and then took us all away."

"So, this is the reason why you betrayed us?" A Ravenclaw said angrily, "Oh! You are really amazing!"

"Shut up! Toros! I believe Harry and the others are not like this! There must be...there must be something hidden in this!"

George retorted angrily.

However, his words sounded a little lacking in confidence.

Everyone around them didn't care about their words.

After all, the ironclad fact has been put in front of everyone, and no matter what George and Fred say, they can't overturn it.

At this moment, Harry, who was being supported by Ron and Hermione and looked extremely weak, suddenly raised his head, first glared at Umbridge with a look full of hatred, and then said slowly:

"Umbridge...she tricked me into drinking Veritaserum. She wanted to know Dumbledore's whereabouts and information about Link. Sorry...I really didn't mean to..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the banquet hall, including the inspectors, looked at Umbridge again.

Veritaserum is a forbidden drug strictly prohibited from private manufacture and use by the Ministry of Magic.

Of course, no one doubts that Umbridge, as a senior official of the Ministry of Magic, has the ability to obtain Veritaserum.

But if Umbridge really used Veritaserum on Harry, then what was revealed here would be a bit too scary.

You know, no matter what, Harry is still Umbridge's student.

Since Umbridge can use Veritaserum on Harry today, can she use it on others tomorrow?

Umbridge is naturally very clear about the meaning of this matter.

She raised her eyebrows and said very naturally:

"This is a slander! As the new principal of Hogwarts and the senior examiner of Hogwarts at the Ministry of Magic, how could I test the law and use such banned drugs on my own students?

Seriously, Harry Potter, you should find a more believable excuse instead of just making it up.

You really disappoint me! "

After Umbridge finished speaking, the inspectors immediately burst into laughter.

Ron and Harry angrily tried to rush towards Umbridge, but were forcibly restrained by the inspection team.

It's just that... the way most people looked at Umbridge didn't change much, they were still full of fear.

Because everyone knows that with Umbridge’s character, she might be able to do this kind of thing!

This made Umbridge's expression look a little ugly.

She coughed twice and started to change the topic:

"Ah! This is really a gorgeous banquet hall. I really didn't expect that there was such a room next to my office."

She turned to look at Link and said in a cold and dangerous tone, "However, private gatherings seem to be against school rules, right? Mr. Foley, could it be that you haven't given up yet and are still continuing to do what Dumbledore did?" Army?"

"Oh, Umbridge, your imagination is really amazing." Link sneered, "But do you have any evidence for what you said? Or is this just your wishful thinking?"

Having said this, the sarcastic look on Link's face became even more intense, and he continued:

"Of course, if you still don't believe it, you can feed us truth serum. Anyway, this is your normal operation, isn't it?"

"Confronting the principal! 50 points deducted from Link Foley!"

Link had just finished speaking, and before Umbridge could even speak, an inspector next to her sternly announced the decision to deduct points.

One deduction is still 50 points!

This also reminded Umbridge.

Indeed, just as Link said, although Umbridge gave Harry Veritaserum, she actually had no evidence that Link was still working on the DA army.

Because what Link asked Hermione to convey was just to tell them to meet at the factory banquet hall in half an hour, and did not say that they were attending a small gathering of the DA army.

But that doesn't mean she can't fix Link.

You know, Umbridge is no longer the little Defense Against the Dark Arts professor she was before.

She is now the principal of Hogwarts!

Whether Link is guilty or not, and what kind of guilt he has, it all depends on her words!

After thinking about this, the gloom on Umbridge's face disappeared.

She smiled and said:

"For organizing an illegal gathering in private, Link Foley will deduct [-] points. You will also be detained for one month in my office! Well, I will punish you with one month of voluntary labor. The specific labor content is to clean up girls. bathroom."

As soon as he said this, Link's eyes became deep and terrifying, and a trace of coldness appeared on his originally expressionless face.

As Link's subordinates, John, Cedric and others reacted even more excitedly than Link.

They stood up almost instantly.

But at the next moment, Umbridge's sarcastic gaze fell on them again:

“Don’t worry, you have a share too.

Everyone present will be deducted 50 points for participating in the illegal assembly organized by Link Foley!In addition, there is still half a month of confinement! "

Upon hearing this, every DA member in the banquet hall clenched their fists tightly.

They don't really care about the points deduction.

Anyway, now that the power to add points and deductions is rampant, the two things of Academy Points and Academy Cup have actually lost their fairness.

And when a game loses its fairness, not many people are willing to play it.

Once there are fewer people, the value of this set of things will naturally plummet and become less valuable.

Everyone has even already had a tacit understanding.

From now on, let Umbridge play her own part, and no one else will get involved.

It doesn't make much sense anyway.

If possible, they would continue to brag about winning the Academy Cup.

Gu</span>Just see if anyone laughs at them.

What is truly unacceptable is the punishment of confinement.

Umbridge's torture-like confinement method has long been famous throughout Hogwarts after being promoted by Harry, Neville and others.

I was really tortured by that thing for half a month.

Many people may have spontaneous hand pain just by seeing a quill in the future.

What's more, Link was punished by cleaning the women's bathroom!

This damages not only Link’s face, but also the DA army’s face!

Under everyone's gnashing of teeth, Umbridge laughed triumphantly.

She really enjoyed the feeling that others wanted to bite her to death but couldn't do anything.

"The decision to deduct points will take effect now. As for other punishments of confinement and compulsory labor, we will start the day after tomorrow." Umbridge deliberately pretended to be compassionate and said, "You are really lucky! Hogg tomorrow Watts is going to hold a principal induction ceremony that belongs to me, so your punishment can only be postponed for one day."

Perhaps noticing the mocking expressions of the people around her after hearing her words, Umbridge continued:

"Of course! The main purpose of this ceremony is not to celebrate my becoming the Headmaster of Hogwarts. It is to judge those members of Dumbledore's Army who were captured last night.

Do you want to know what kind of punishment they will receive?

Fired?No no no!Of course I wouldn't do that!They were just bewitched by Dumbledore. How could I fire them?I didn't even fire Link Foley, the main accomplice, did I?

They only need to recite their confession in front of all the students at tomorrow's induction ceremony.

Then just accept the traditional Hogwarts punishment.

What is traditional punishment?

oh!It's all my fault!I forgot that you are too young to have experienced the education before Dumbledore.

You know, if you made a mistake in that era, you would be hung up and whipped!

This fine tradition was not canceled until Dumbledore became the Headmaster of Hogwarts.

Fortunately, our key keeper, Mr. Filch, is a real man who knows his stuff.He has preserved a complete set of torture instruments from that time very well.

I think you will definitely like it in the future. "

She raised her eyes and looked at Link at the top of the long table, her eyes flashing fiercely and said:

"Especially you, Link Foley, you'd better be a good student who abides by the law, otherwise, you will definitely enjoy all this. Of course, you don't have to rush to refute or get angry now. Let’s wait until you finish watching tomorrow’s trial!

Finally, I wish you a happy day!

let's go! "

Under Umbridge's shouts, the inspection team walked away behind her.

Some of them were bolder and even raised their middle fingers at Link and others.

Perhaps before they think about it, the current situation has been settled.

Link can no longer be as unscrupulous in Hogwarts as before, because as the principal, Umbridge can throw the iron whip in his face!

bang——

As the door of the banquet hall was slammed shut, George and Fred, who had reached the limit of their patience, also stood up and said:

"Do it! Link! We can't sit around and wait any longer!"

George and Fred's words were like a signal.

Many people on the side who had been silent at first also echoed loudly.

Soon, there were voices in the banquet hall about fighting with Umbridge.

But this time, the group of Ravenclaws who had made peace before also remained silent.

After all, among the group of people that Umbridge will hold a public trial tomorrow are their brothers, sisters, friends and seniors.

Looking at the angry and twisted faces in front of him, Link smiled.

He shook his head and said to George and Fred:

"It's true that we have to do it, but we can't do it with the method you two suggested."

"Why not? We are not afraid of sacrifice!" George and Fred were angry, "I think you are just afraid! But it doesn't matter, if you don't want to do it, then we will go it alone! Anyway, instead of suffering here, the two of us can It’s better to run out and start a business!”

After he finished speaking, there was another burst of echoes.

Although there are a lot less echoes, and most of them are from Gryffindors, it is undeniable that this is a considerable force.

That's the nature of Gryffindor.

They are brave, not afraid of hardships and sacrifices, but at the same time, they are also very susceptible to temptation.

Under the influence of this trait, you will most likely not be able to ask them to seek refuge with Voldemort, but it is not too easy to ask them to do something stupid that is within the scope of their three views.

Faced with the almost offensive words from George and Fred, Link smiled instead of getting angry:

"I mean, your idea is so petty and boring.

Just like what Toros said before, once your idea is implemented, it will only make Umbridge uncomfortable at best.

It has no essential impact on Umbridge's rule at all.

This is not what I want. "

George and Fred, look at me and I look at you. The anger on their faces has faded away, replaced by shock and disbelief.

As smart as they are, they have roughly guessed what Link wants to do.

It's just...that's too crazy?

It was so crazy that even the two 'madmen' couldn't believe it.

George said in an uncertain tone:

"So...you mean to..."

Before George finished speaking, he heard Link stand up with a sinister smile and said:

“If we want to do it, we must remove Umbridge from power, or even put Umbridge in Azkaban!

Didn't Umbridge hope to hold a grand induction ceremony tomorrow?

Then let's help her!

Make things worse! "

As soon as these words came out, the entire banquet hall fell silent at first, and then burst into cheers like a mountain roaring and a tsunami!

Surprisingly, Toros and others who had previously opposed George and Fred's opinions were actually the most excited at the moment.

But that's not surprising.

Because Umbridge has obviously put them within striking range now.

On the other side, once Link's plan succeeds, they will recover far greater benefits than they had with Umbridge before!

Amidst the deafening cheers, Link looked at the closed door with a sneer.

Umbridge will probably never know that she is just a crop.

And now, the crops are ripe.

Naturally, it’s time to harvest!
