HP: The Shadow Returns

With the deepening of intelligence in West Asia, the first day of school at Hogwarts has arrived, and Virta has left this matter to Voldemort for the time being.

On weekdays, he has nothing else to do except creating some terrorist activities and handling affairs. He also recruits some dark creatures to serve as an army, although it seems that these things are not of much use.

But Huerta didn't say much, he just hoped that the strength of the internal Death Eaters would match their status.

Like Peter Pettigrew...she has nothing to comment on.

But when she left, she also knew that Voldemort wanted to take action on the prophecy of that year.

He seemed to have some thoughts, but he didn't think it was very important. It was just a false prophecy. Paying too much attention to it might cause some unnecessary trouble.

Unfortunately, Voldemort was too paranoid. Sometimes even he couldn't persuade him about certain things. He would have to tie him up and throw him in a castle to be honest.

She wouldn't do that now, but if at some critical points...

That's another story.

The Hogwarts train clanked forward on the track, pulling out a long line of white smoke and making a loud whistle.

At this moment, it was extremely quiet in the Slytherin carriage.

Daphne had always been afraid of Huerta and didn't say a word along the way. Astoria was not that unfamiliar. Her and Draco's engagement date was set for Christmas.

The blond girl is now happily sharing the news with Virta, her eyebrows shining like stars.

"Should we not call you by your name in school yet?"

"Yes, Astoria, not yet."

Virta's expression was as calm and gentle as ever. She was holding hands with Theodore and sitting across from them. She saw Pansy through the reflective glass.

Speaking of which, I haven't chatted with her for a long time.

"Okay, you're coming to my engagement party, right?"

Astoria saw herself nodding, and she was extremely happy.

When Daphne saw this scene at this time, she suddenly felt that maybe the relationship between Gaunt and Gaunt was not with their parents or Malfoy.

But Astoria.

She turned to look at her sister who was adjusting Draco's bow tie, and she couldn't help but feel more relaxed. Blaise silently held her hand next to her.

The two looked at each other, but quickly looked away.

Vierta leaned against Theodore silently, half-closing his eyes as if taking a nap, and began to make plans for this semester.

As soon as he got out of the car, Draco couldn't wait to find trouble with Harry Potter. He knew that Harry Potter was almost expelled for using magic spells without authorization, and he wanted to use this to ridicule Harry Potter.

Originally, he wanted to take Astoria with him, but the girl disliked his naivety and refused. In the end, Malfoy had no choice but to bring his two little followers.

"When will he grow up?" Daphne looked at his sullen back and whispered to Astoria in a disgusted voice.

"I don't know, but it's enough for me to grow up. It doesn't matter to him." Astoria curled her lips, indicating that she didn't care about this.

Daphne sighed when she heard this. These two people really had nothing to say.

The opening dinner was held daily, and the new branch sorting ceremony also ended in an orderly and perfect manner under the auspices of Mag.

Virta and Hermione looked at each other for half a second after their eyes met in the air, and then her eyes quickly turned to the two unfamiliar people sitting in the teacher's seat.

Among them was a fat woman sitting next to Snape, picking at the food on the plate with different movements, and wearing extremely weird clothes, covered in pink from head to toe.

It should be Fudge's confidant, Dolores Jane Umbridge.

However, Virta still glanced at Snape twice more, because the man was very vigilant, and she quickly withdrew her gaze.

Snape only felt a chill on his back, and there was no unnecessary feeling at all.

When he still wanted to explore, Dumbledore coughed twice and started to speak.

"Children, there are two changes on the teaching bench today. First, we welcome back Professor Grubblan. She will continue to be in charge of the Care of Magical Creatures class during Professor Hagrid's temporary leave."

"In the meantime, let's welcome our new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Dolores Jane Umbridge! You will all be happy to join me in wishing her good luck."

"As usual, Administrator Filch asked me to remind everyone..."

Then Umbridge, who was sitting in the seat, suddenly interrupted Dumbledore with a little girl-like moan.

Sure enough, it doesn't leave a good impression at first glance.

Virta watched her slowly stand up and thought with an expressionless face, if she can achieve her goal, it doesn't matter who she is.

"Thank you, Headmaster, for your welcome speech..." Umbridge clasped her hands, her mean brows filled with a false smile.

"It is really pleasant to see you smiling brightly at me. I believe we will become very good friends. The Ministry of Magic has always believed that the education of young wizards and witches is very important."

"Although successive principals have injected a lot of fresh blood into this school, the stagnant educational methods are not worthy of encouragement. Let us inherit what needs to be inherited and improve what needs to be improved."

The smile on her face is even brighter

"Abandon what should be abandoned"

After she finished speaking, she slowly walked off the stage, and Dumbledore applauded her.

"Thank you so much, Professor Umbridge. It's so inspiring."

"Enlightenment? What enlightenment? It's just like nonsense." Ron's little complaint reached her ears.

Huerta looked at all this calmly.

.....

The weather this winter seems not to be very good. It may be due to many reasons, but Harry Potter thinks it is most likely because of Voldemort.

Although many people don't believe him.

The Daily Prophet was full of negative news about him and Dumbledore, whether it was Voldemort's resurrection or the trial that day.

Harry felt himself getting more and more irritable, and he even had a big fight with Seamus in the common room over this.

But Huerta knew very well that it was because of the Horcrux, the most important plan of this semester.

Let the savior go crazy...

In the new semester, Snape has reduced the workload of teaching assistant Huerta. He only occasionally goes there once or twice a week, and even grading homework has been cancelled.

This can be considered an extremely beautiful thing.

In the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Umbridge's teaching quality was comparable to Lockhart's.

It's just another way to get rid of dangerous practices and switch to reviewing after class or reading in class.

She stepped on pink high heels and burned the paper cranes that were flying in the sky as soon as she came in from behind the door.

"Good morning, kid, let's talk now about the Ordinary Wizard Owls Level Examination that will be held this semester~"

"Why was she so disgusted when she read those letters?" Daphne frowned and whispered, watching the woman in pink gradually walk to the podium.

The smile on Umbridge's face continued, and she stared at everyone and said

"Study hard and you will be rewarded. If you do the opposite, the consequences will be very serious."
