v2 Chapter 923： Intervention and guidance of the Ministry of Magic

Speaking of this, Professor Umbridge stopped talking and bowed to other teachers, and none of them returned to her.

Professor McGonagall's two black eyebrows are tightly twisted together, making her look like an eagle.

When Umbridge turned and continued his speech, Professor McGonagall exchanged a meaningful eye for Professor Sprout.

“Hogwarts’ previous presidents have innovated when they are responsible for managing this historic school. This is all right, because if there is no progress, it will stagnate and will decline. At the same time, progress for progress. The practice should never be encouraged. Our traditions are tempered and often do not require botched corrections. To achieve a balance between old and new, between long-lasting and changing, in tradition and innovation. between."

Umbridge spoke incessantly, and she probably thought of this as a work report from the Ministry of Magic.

Ai Wen quickly distracted. Aside from the meaningless words, there was only one thing she wanted to convey. That is, the Ministry of Magic is very dissatisfied with Hogwarts’ current state of operation and is ready to interfere with Hogwarts. Operation.

He knew this for a long time, and naturally he was not interested in listening to her.

The little wizards have never seen this scene, and they are not interested in listening to her chattering here.

Everyone's attention gradually became inconsistent. I couldn't keep up with Umbridge's thoughts. When Dumbledore spoke, he was silent. Now the students are whispering, whispering, giggling, and the hall is noisy.

On the left side of Ai Wen, Kate held his chin with his hand, but his head kept sliding down; on the table next to Ravenclaw, Qiu was chatting happily with friends, Luna separated from her by several seats. I also pulled out the "singing and reversing".

At the same time, on Hufflepuff's table, Ernie McMillan is one of the few students still staring at Professor Umbridge, but his eyes are dull, he can be sure that he Just pretending to listen carefully, in order to live up to the brand new, gleaming badge on his chest.

On the long side of the Slytherin on the side of the auditorium, Astoria is talking to a girl.

She is Astoria's sister Daphne Greengrass, in addition to their brother, is a Slytherin seventh grade student.

On the rostrum, Umbridge did not seem to notice the restlessness of the audience.

She turned a blind eye to everything below, and still spoke slowly with her guilloche voice.

She gives the impression that even if there is a massive riot under the nose, she won't care.

However, the teachers listened very carefully one by one, and Dumbledore kept staring at Umbridge.

On the right side of Ai Wen, Hermione also smugly listened to every word that Umbridge said, but from her expression, she didn't like to hear these words.

"Because some changes have achieved good results, and others have changed to the right time, they will be found to be mistakes in decision-making. At the same time, some old habits will be preserved. This is understandable, and some habits are obsolete. We must abandon. Let us keep moving forward, enter a new era of enlightened, efficient and reasonable, resolutely maintain what we should maintain, improve what needs to be perfected, and reject those that we should ban."

Half an hour later, Umbridge finally sat down, Dumbledore began to applaud, and other teachers followed.

There are very few responses below. Several students subconsciously followed the applause, but most students only made two or three sentences and opened the gap. At this point, they did not realize that the speech was over.

Dumbledore stood up again without waiting for them to start applauding.

"Thank you very much, Professor Umbridge, your speech is very instructive." He said, owe her a debt, "Okay, as I said, the selection of the Quidditch team will be... ..."

"Yeah, it's really instructive," Hermione said in a low voice.

"Don't you say that you listened with gusto?" Ron whispered, his sullen face turned to Hermione. "This is probably the most boring speech I have ever heard, and I grew up beside Percy." It."

“I’m talking about inspirational, not interesting,” said Hermione. “It can tell a lot of questions.”

"Is it?" Ron asked blankly. "It sounds like a big nonsense, yes, Harry, can you say that I can sign up for the Quidditch team selection?"

When he mentioned Quidditch, he came to the spirit.

"Of course, if you can come, it's great!" said Harry, and he followed him back. "Wood is gone, we need a new goalkeeper. I don't know who the captain is, wait for tomorrow. I will help you find out."

The first-year freshmen looked at them both again. Compared with Umbridge’s speech, everyone was very interested in Quidditch.

As the most popular sport in the magic world, Quidditch is more popular than you might think.

A lot of Muggle-born wizards entered the magic world, the first one to know is Quidditch.

Everyone seems to want to enter the Quidditch team. If the fair selection is open, the possibility of Ron being selected is very low.

It’s not that he’s not flying well enough, but it’s too unstable. It’s possible that he can’t show his strength at all...

"Listen to what she said, progress for progress should never be encouraged, and abandon those we should ban, the Ministry of Magic is intervening in Hogwarts." Hermione turned to Ai Wen and said, ignore They are two.

"As expected, Fudge hopes to resolve us from within." Ai Wen said, "Be careful with this woman, she is not easy."

Umbridge represents the Ministry of Magic, and before the complete break, Hogwarts can't resist the orders of the Ministry of Magic.

Hermione still wants to say something, but there is a crash of a table and chair bench.

Apparently, Dumbledore has announced that the teachers and students of the school have been dissolved because everyone has stood up and ready to leave the auditorium.

Hermione jumped up and showed a panic.

"Ivan, we should go to the first graders!" She hurriedly said, "Ron, hurry!"

"I almost forgot!" Ron shouted. "Hey, all of you! Little, no!"

"Ron!"

"Cough, it's just like it, they are so small..."

"That can't help them call a little bit, first-year freshmen!" Hermione shouted at the table and shouted, "Please go here!"

"Come on, let's get back to the common room and bedroom." Avon said, and Kate stood up.

A group of freshmen came very shyly from the aisle between the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw tables, and they all tried to shrink behind and dare not go out.

They looked at Avon, Harry, Ron, and Hermione with twinkling eyes.

There are more new students in this year than usual. They look really small and extraordinarily young.

"There are too many people. Can these guys not know how to make way for the new students?" Hermione said dissatisfied.

The crowd was crowded at the door, because Umbridge had been delayed for too long, and everyone now wants to go back quickly.

Compared with those strong senior students, the small points around the ranks are not dominant at all.

"Don't worry, give it to me!" Avon said, he took out his wand.
