102 The Tyranny of Umbridge

Rui knew that his task was not easy since he volunteered to find out the secret from Renata.She must set aside at least one night a week to go to Renata's place to listen to lectures and discuss, and then use almost all of her spare time to do experiments.At first she thought it was impossible to go to the Astronomy Tower for a few hours a week, but Renata shocked her again-she asked Sir Cadogan to inform her that the first class was in Room No.11.When Rae arrives on time, Renata appears in a landscape painting of a wheat field.

This shows Renata's uniqueness from another aspect.Her portrait will not be discovered by the characters in other portraits, but she can wander into other portraits at will.Even more frightening is her ability to influence people in portraits, such as Sir Cadogan.Rui still remembers Sir Cadogan's performance at that time -- dazed and ignorant, and he didn't even know how to flirt with the beautiful portrait of a woman passing by.

She still had some doubts in her heart, thinking that even if Renata wasn't a Horcrux, she might not be something serious.But Rye trusted Dumbledore with all his heart, and since he said Renata was harmless, she would not be afraid either.

Getting along with Renata was a little easier than Ray expected.Because Ruiyi had already figured out the pendant made by Qiu before, coupled with her own interest and understanding of alchemy, they quickly became a pair of teachers and students who were very compatible.All the research is progressing smoothly, and Ruiyi and Renata no longer stare at each other and mock each other.

Umbridge doesn't seem to want to make life easy for Rae, though.

Rae was eating a quiche when a large photo of her bloated frame and sweet smile was published in the Daily Prophet.In the photo, Umbridge grinned widely at the camera, and a disgusted Rye dropped the newspaper on the ground.

"That's disgusting," Mon Lisa whispered to Rae. "Look at what she's been doing recently? In addition to her class, she has to get involved in other things!"

"Which professor do you think will be checked first?" Chad Bolton poked his head over to join in the fun. "I heard that Professor Swift hasn't been behaving well recently. I haven't taken Ancient Rune, so Rie, is it true that Swift's drinking is true?"

"Uh-huh." Rui responded vaguely, and Dailiana silently forked a piece of scrambled egg opposite her.

"I'm looking forward to Transfiguration." Monlisa looked at Professor McGonagall on the teacher's bench with her chin resting on her hands. "How do you think Professor McGonagall will answer her disgusting coughing sound?"

"I'm for turning her into a toad," Hannah muttered. "She's disgusting, doesn't teach us anything that's really useful for OWLs, and likes to be locked up! Almost everyone in Gryffindor has been locked up by her, especially Harry - you see the one in Harry's hand Are you scarred?"

The Badgers are immediately engaged in discussing Harry Potter and his "lies".

The first class this morning was ancient runes, and Swift was still in the same old state, piled in a chair in a daze.Rae sat with Cho, and Delena sat alone in the back row.Everyone copied the words on the blackboard and silently made their own translations.

Umbridge walked into the rune classroom in the middle of the class, accompanied by the familiar sound of her natural coughing.The whole class was taken aback, and Rae even scraped the tip of her quill when she made that sound.Professor Swift, however, did not respond to her arrival, remaining piled in his chair.

"Professor Boyce Swift," said Umbridge coquettishly. "I assume you've received my notice, haven't you?"

Swift looked up at her, then dropped his head again.

Umbridge was clearly annoyed by his actions, Rie thought, as her fat feet dangled in her stiletto heels. "I'm going to have to do some research on you, Swift." She held up a book with an iron clip on it. "So first, how long have you been teaching here?"

The whole class looked at Swift, and he spoke with great difficulty: "17 years." His voice was hoarse and unpleasant.

While writing it down in his notebook, Umbridge asked the next question: "I saw that the information shows that you were once awarded the Order of Merlin, Second Class Medal for discovering the third magic power of cuneiform writing—you can show for a while?"

Her words sparked murmurs in the class, and even Rye was surprised.She knew that Professor Swift's rune level was unfathomable, but she did not expect that he would be awarded the Order of Merlin for such a discovery.Ray firmly believes that the shocking news exposed by Umbridge will allow a large number of female students who once abandoned Professor Swift to return to his army of nympho.

Swift didn't seem to take this thing seriously, he waved his wand, and a few seconds later, a small iron box flew in through the crack of the door and fell into Umbridge's hands.Rui craned his neck to take a look, and found that the box where the medal was placed was covered with spider webs.

"It's really enough not to care about reputation." Qiu muttered.

The presence of the medal seemed to displease Umbridge.Turning over the medals, she continued to ask: "You were only under 20 years old when you taught at Hogwarts. Why do you think Dumbledore took a fancy to you?" , fingers with pink nail polish twirling the rusty Order of Merlin. "Could it be this fake?"

Everyone shut their mouths and looked at Swift together.He is sitting a little more straight now than before, but he still doesn't look energetic. "It's not fake." He defended very feebly. "There's a number on the back, or did you try a revealing spell on it?"

Umbridge tilted her head in mock cuteness.

"Go on." Swift waved his hand to signal the students what to do, but Umbridge didn't want to let him go like this.

"I've heard from some students that you seem to be drinking too much recently, and you haven't been doing well in class—oh? What are you doing? Copying texts? Ancient runes are not a language class, I think you know it well, Bo— —Y-S.”

Rye felt like she was really going to throw up, and Umbridge's big toad-like mouth was almost grinning to the ear when he called "Boyce".

Swift finally had some other reactions this time. He glanced at Qiu: "Miss Zhang, please demonstrate how the words on the blackboard work—"

Qiu picked up her wand and prepared, but Umbridge waved his hand: "Wait, Boyce, I know that Qiu Zhang is one of the best students in the whole year, and her level may not be representative of others. I think otherwise At once--"

"I'll do it." Dailiana, who was sitting in the last row, stood up abruptly, her eyes sparkling.Rui noticed that she had taken off the prefect badge she had been pinning around her collar at some point.Diliana's Defense Against the Dark Arts was mediocre, and she hadn't been able to enter the advanced class this semester, so this was the first time Umbridge saw her in class.Rae imagined that Umbridge must have thought that Delena, who sat alone at the end, was not doing very well, so he allowed her to stand up on her own initiative.

Teriana picked up the notebook on the table, wrote something on it with the tip of her wand, muttered an incantation under her breath, and threw the notebook at Umbridge.Umbridge pulled out her wand extremely quickly - to a whoosh from everyone - only to be covered in confetti by the prematurely exploding notebook.

"Ogham's Explosive Curse, Professor." Delena said flatly. "You must be able to read the words on the blackboard, right?"

Monlisa's Ravenclaw boyfriend Bout couldn't help a laugh, and the whole class laughed softly.Rae noticed that Swift's brow was furrowed, and there was a little worry in his eyes.

Umbridge was trembling with anger, shaking his wand to clean up the confetti on his body.While Rye was worried about Delena, Umbridge turned around and took the fire out on Swift.Her voice was no longer delicate, but became like a female cat whose tail was stepped on: "Boice Swift, can you tell me why my information only has your mother's name, but not your father's?" name. And, what do you think of the rumor that you're the bastard child of your mother and some unknown Muggle?"

The students were in an uproar, and Swift's eyes were narrowed, and his wand was gripped tightly.Rye blurted out, "This is private, Professor!"

"Ten points for Hufflepuff, Wood." Umbridge looked at Ree with a smile, his cheeks bulging like a toad staring at its prey. "It seems that your boyfriend Weasley didn't tell you how people who interrupted me were punished?"

"And what does Professor Umbridge think of your Ministry-sweeping father, your frivolous Muggle mother, and your lazy, dirty Squib brother?" Delena said slowly and clearly. "Oh, sorry, I almost forgot, you're a 'pure-blood'."

Rae groaned inwardly and covered her face—needless to say, it must have been Delena's mother again.And usually, what she says is the truth.

Delena was so successful at pissing Umbridge that Delena was sent to solitary confinement for two weeks after the runescape game.Ree had left her the prepared Mortra rat tentacles juice - which soothed the scar on the back of her hand a bit.

Delena's direct challenge to Umbridge cost Hufflepuff fifty points, but no one blamed Delena for it.After all, everyone feels more sorry for Professor Swift who has been exposed.What Delena said was quickly amplified by the little badgers, and Umbridge was sullen every day, picking on every student she saw in the corridors.She even started confiscating the students' communication badges outright for "spreading false rumours."

The students, who had long been accustomed to the convenience brought by the communication badge, hated Umbridge even more.The twins jumped their feet in anger, knowing that this was one of their main sources of profit.They started glaring at Umbridge and finding every opportunity to take advantage of her.Things like sticking invisible fart mats to her chair on the teacher's bench, sneaking into the kitchen to mix in a transformed pumpkin pie for her breakfast, etc.But what is regrettable is that Umbridge has a very strong anti-reconnaissance ability. The twins' tricks can only be successful the first time, and will not work the second time.

"Not a professor with a sense of humor." When the twins gave Umbridge scabies on his face and they were locked up for a week for it, the two threw their red heads in identical arcs. "I like the shape of her scabies, though," said George. "Why don't you find a way to make it spew out pus next time?"

"Good way, buddy." Fred pulled his hand out of the Mortra rat juice that Rie served, and the two of them were beaten up by their respective girlfriends.

The dislike of the students led to Umbridge's intensification in class.She became more and more enthusiastic about torturing students, leaving them with piles of scribe assignments (on uniform parchment enchanted so they couldn't use the automatic scribe quill), imposing draconian rules in the classroom, and making random excuses Punish students, leaving scars on the backs of their hands.

Among the students who were punished, Harry suffered the most serious physical injuries.Now that the scars on the back of his hands couldn't quite heal with Mortella's juice, Rye had to get him some scar remover from Mrs. Torwood.

"You'd better hold back," Rie advised Harry. "I heard from my father that the Ministry of Magic will make big moves recently."

"They're already moving a lot!" Ron crossed his arms angrily. "How can the Ministry of Magic let such a person be the Deputy Minister? She is simply a devil!"

"Keep your voice down, Ron." Hermione had to give him a tug. "You have to go, there will be training in a while."

Ron took the team uniform and left the auditorium aggressively. Rui looked at Harry in a daze, and couldn't help but feel a little sad: "Harry, don't do this." She comforted dryly. "Umbridge's arrogance won't last long, and Dumbledore won't just sit idly by."

Harry smiled bitterly: "Really."

The truth was that Dumbledore seemed genuinely indifferent to these matters, allowing Umbridge to turn Hogwarts upside down.Rui Yi couldn't help looking for him several times, but Renata seemed to see through her thoughts, and said to her with a sneer: "If you really go to him, you are a complete idiot. Even Harry Potter knows he's busy right now - you think Dumbledore's going to be in his office, expecting the Horcruxes to come to him and beg him to destroy them?"

"But you know where they are, don't you?" Rye said hopefully. "If you will reveal—"

"I've said enough." Renata scowled. "Believe it or not, I won't give you the correct prompts anymore?"

Umbridge's high-pressure supervision also affected the teachers of other subjects, and everyone behaved a little cautiously in class.Of course, the most restrained one was Defense Against the Dark Arts. Since Angelina didn't want another team member to be dragged to write on the back of her hand, all team members were ordered to behave themselves.The twins performed particularly well.

"George beat me up after Angelina beat me up last time," Fred said. "Obviously he and I did it together, didn't he?!"

"But we can't keep learning nothing like this, can we?" Hermione, who occasionally met in the library, said worriedly. "We still have OWLs, and—and the man..."

Rye thought Hermione might do something.

Sure enough, on the eve of Halloween, Hermione sent a message to Hannah, inviting Rey to join a "self-study mutual aid group".Rui understood and called Monlisa and Dora, who were very interested, and Delena, who suddenly improved after being locked up by Umbridge.

By the way, there is a line of faint scars on the back of Terena's hand, which is the mark of Umbridge's special quill.She asked Delena to write "I will never spread rumors".

Deliana has been particularly fond of showing her scars to others recently, and then added flatly: "I will always only tell the truth."
