After breakfast that day, staff from the Ministry of Magic did come to Hogwarts, but instead of investigating cheating, they came to take Umbridge away.

As abrupt as he had come, after a day at Hogwarts, Umbridge disappeared from the sight of all the teachers and students.

According to the Ministry of Magic, the original OWLs invigilator was someone else, but was injured due to a magic error.The incident happened suddenly, and Umbridge could only act on his behalf.

As for Cornelius Fudge, as the head of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters of the Ministry of Magic, he is busy with his duties and has no knowledge of Umbridge's promotion, and the so-called improper relationship is even non-existent.

"That's all?"

"Otherwise, what else do you want?"

"Ministry of Magic, Fudge, etc..." Carrie stood on the bed in her pajamas, with her hips akimbo, "They won't believe anyone who claims to have a normal IQ."

Alice shook her head: "I've been pleasantly surprised by the progress of the matter. Didn't you see that the "Daily Prophet" has been focusing on Umbridge's family background, childhood experience and emotional discovery these days?"

What inspired Alice was a boy who shouted that day, "I will tell Dad and let him publish in the newspaper."

Although she didn't like Rita Skeeter's reports before, holding the audio and video recordings in her hands, the first thing that popped into Alice's mind was this not-so-famous but accomplished reporter.

When it comes to the Ministry of Magic, even the largest newspaper in the wizarding world may not necessarily agree to report.But Rita Skeeter is a typical entertainment reporter, she doesn't care about morality and truth, and only cares about hot spots and fame.

So, almost against the odds, Rita Skeeter, relying on her previous contributions, did it herself, wrote the article and made the front page of the newspaper.

In fact, she bet right.From that day on, the "Daily Prophet" was out of stock, and Rita Skeeter's reputation also rose to a higher level, becoming a man of the hour in the journalist world.

"Originally, the most taboo thing in the newspaper industry is to involve politics. They have taken a risky gamble, and there will be no next time."

"Okay, it's good that Umbridge is gone." Carrie rolled her eyes, "The OWLs exam is over, and you are free. We have time to do more important things now."

"What's the matter?" Alice didn't know, so let's not say that the OWLs exam is the most important thing. The end of the exam means that the holiday is coming. What else can I be busy at this time?

"It's late at night, I'm very tired after a day of exams."

"I knew it." Carrie jumped out of bed helplessly, "You must be busy reviewing and didn't see the notice in front of the lounge."

"It's not the school's notice."

"Hey, of course. In short, I don't know who proposed to the principal to hold a celebration dance after the exam, and the principal agreed."

The principal is very talkative, and it is the deans of the various colleges that need to be persuaded. Fortunately, with the help of the chairmen and seniors of the four major colleges, the deans still compromised.It just emphasizes that this is not an official event, and participation is voluntary.

"After the ship was built, everyone found that as long as the four colleges are willing, the principal and professors will be very pleased and agree to the request."

"Then I've done a good thing." Alice was also very relieved, at least now the atmosphere between Slytherin and the other three houses was no longer so tense.

"Not much nonsense, are you going to the dance?"

"What you are asking is nonsense." Alice did not hesitate, "Of course I participated."

"What time is it?"

"Eight o'clock in the evening in three days."

"..." Alice was speechless for a while, "Is there a mistake! It's only been three days, and you're telling me now?"

I didn't buy or try on the clothes, and it took at least two days to send them after I chose them, not to mention the matching jewelry and hairstyle.

"How can I go to the ball and wear wizard robes?"

"It's not that you are too busy." Carrie said confidently, "You said it yourself, let alone a few days ago, even if I told you this morning, how would you reply?"

this morning? The OWLs are not over yet.

Alice smiled awkwardly: "The exam is not over yet, how can I have the time to go to the dance? I won't go."

Carrie walked up to Alice, looked at her at the same level, and rolled a big white eye: "You should feel lucky to have me as a friend."

"The shopping guide is coming." Carrie waved her magic wand, and a brick-thick book flew over from the bookshelf. "This is the latest dress of this season. I marked the photos that I think are suitable for you."

"Carrie, I love you so much!" Alice jumped forward, intending to give her friend a loving hug.

"Come on." Carrie avoided in disgust, "I don't need hugs from handsome guys."

Regardless of her friend's duplicity, Alice opened the illustrated book.

blue?No, it was worn before.

White?Wanting to stay in winter and wear a white suit in the snow, Alice has long wanted to try it.

Purple?It seems that some are too special, and the time is tight, so it is not easy to match.

Alice was struggling while turning the pages, and suddenly she stared straight at a page of the illustrated book, and the movements of her hands stopped.

"Carrie! What do you think of this one?" Alice looked up, her eyes full of little stars.

"You chose this?" Carrie was a little surprised when she saw the photo. Alice had never tried this style, and she marked it because the dress was so beautiful.

"I'll be in the sixth grade soon." Alice became excited, "I've wanted to try this kind of more mature skirt for a long time."

Carrie studied her friend carefully.Maybe it's the effect of insisting on drinking milk. This year Alice finally caught up with the big team and grew to 1 meters. At least she still has the foundation to become mature.

"What kind of jewelry should go with the black velvet dress?" Alice was in high spirits, apparently already made up her mind.

"There can't be too many jewelry. The most important thing about black velvet is to highlight the temperament. Too much jewelry will make you feel overwhelming."

"I think I should wear a pearl necklace. What do you think about the hairstyle?"

"Come on, I'll braid your hair for you when the time comes." Carrie circled around Alice, "Put some pearls on your head, and you can always trust my skills."

"Uh-huh."

"However." Carrie frowned, "The dress and good pearl jewelry are not cheap, do you have enough money?"

Although Alice made a lot of money every year because of "Five Three", Carrie also knew that most of her money was saved for future research expenses.Being so forthright now is different from before.

"Enough." Alice blinked innocently, "Isn't there Umbridge's audio-visual income? I think it's bad luck to keep the money, so I just take the opportunity to use it."

"I see." Carrie breathed a sigh of relief, "Now that you've said that, order a few more bottles of Radiance and Hair Softener."

"How many bottles?"

"Yes, you have two bottles and I have two bottles."

"That's not necessary."

Carrie's eyes widened: "Are you not happy? Do you not love me anymore?"

"No, I just said that the money can be used this time, which doesn't mean it should be wasted."

"Waste? It's a waste to use it for me!" Carrie jumped up, showing the appearance of breaking up without a reasonable explanation.

Alice helplessly raised her forehead: "Listen to me, I mean it's too wasteful to buy these potions."

Whether Muggles or wizards, women are always the subject of consumption.Potions are inherently expensive, let alone beauty potions.Alice's skills in making this kind of beauty potion are mediocre, but she still understands its raw materials and cost.

After seeing the price, Alice could only say that although she needed it, it didn't mean she was wronged.The profit of one bottle is worth the cost of ten bottles.

"Then we don't need it?" Carrie regretted.The opportunity is rare and the funds are abundant. She should have dressed up carefully from head to toe and amazed the audience.

"I said calm down, let me finish first," Alice said slowly, "I didn't say no."

Alice planned to take advantage of Professor Snape's good mood and find a chance to ask for a few bottles of beauty potions.She has been coveting the professor's potion cabinet for a long time, and she observes it carefully every time she goes there.Although the quantity of each is not much, it is better than the rich variety.

The potion master's beauty potion will definitely have a much better effect than others.

"Snape will give it?" Carrie couldn't believe it, "It would be nice if he didn't deduct points from me."

"Actually, Professor Snape is not that unreasonable." Alice patiently explained, "And I've done things for him for free for so long, so what's the point of getting paid?"

Although Professor Snape's cold face and ridicule can be expected, the process is not important, as long as the result is good.

"Our slogan is: save it, spend it." Alice clenched her right hand, "I definitely choose the best quality potion."

……

"I sweated and bled for the newspaper. Now I'm locked out?"

Under the surprised eyes of others, the well-known Rita Skeeter was rejected by her own newspaper.

"Rita, you have to understand." The president's earnest persuasion came through the crack of the door, "Someone will not let your name appear in the newspaper. For the development of the newspaper, there is no way around it."

"As long as you give up the right to sign, I guarantee that you will not lose the salary you deserve."

Would Rita Skeeter agree?of course not.Just when she wanted to argue, a sudden voice interrupted her.

"Rita Skeeter?"

"I hope you can cooperate and return to the Ministry of Magic to participate in the investigation."

Rita looked back to see the Auror who suddenly appeared and screamed: "I have freedom of speech! You can't do this to me!"

"I think you misunderstood." The leader Auror picked out his ear, showing disdain, "After our investigation, we found that you are an illegal Animagus."

Rita's screaming stopped abruptly, her face full of panic and disbelief: "Impossible, I said hello, you can't..."

"Of course we can. The employees who took bribes have been fired. It's useless for you to find anyone."

After standing still for a moment, Rita's face turned pale, and she resignedly put down her wand.
