Chapter 367： Harry's nightmare

"I disagree!"

Umbridge yelled, because she was so angry that she was posing.

However, now that the entire auditorium was caught in a carnival, no one cared about her speech at all, and Dumbledore, who was surrounded by a crowd in the center in the distance, didn't even look at her.

In desperation, Umbridge could only use the Loud Sound Curse.

This time, Dumbledore finally heard her call, and saw that he turned his head and looked at Umbridge in surprise, as if he was wondering why she appeared here.

"I don't agree, Dumbledore!" Umbridge repeated again, "I managed to bring Hogwarts back on track, and you can never make it look like the original one! "

"Oh! Umbridge, you misunderstood me. The purpose of everything I do is the same as you, for the students to have a good learning environment." Dumbledore said, "but I have to Say, you did a little too much in some things, like expelling Professor Trelawney. I admit that Professor Trelawney does not act like a serious professor sometimes, so you can also expel her. Exactly, but at the same time you have to know one thing. Fortune-telling is an extremely esoteric subject. It is very difficult to find a suitable fortune-telling professor. So I think we must first before expelling Trelawney You have to find someone better than her, isn't it? Otherwise, what do you ask the students who have applied for the divination class to do?"

Umbridge stood there blankly. She wanted to refute, but the reason Dumbledore gave was so impeccable that she was speechless.

At the same time, she is also very clear that she is indeed irrelevant about the punishment room and temporary inspectors. If she really wants to go her own way, then the parents of the students are likely to tear her to pieces.

Then the only benefit that can be won is the ban on associations.

Umbridge thought so, breathlessly said:

"Well, then, I agree with your decision to recall Trelawney, but I will never give in regarding the club ban!"

"Professor Umbridge, I think you must have not heard what I said before. I am not saying that you want to directly veto your club ban. I know that some clubs in Hogwarts do have some problems, so I just It is planned to reopen the Quidditch school team and the game. I believe you will not refuse this point, do you?"

After hearing that Umbridge’s complexion became darker, her most fundamental task when she came to Hogwarts was to prevent Dumbledore from cultivating his organization in secret, and once the ban on associations was opened, then according to her experience Seeing that all the efforts he has made during this period will be in vain, this is something he cannot bear anyway.

However, just when she was about to refute, she caught Dumbledore's eyes at the moment.

It was a look with strong dissatisfaction and anger. With this look, Umbridge's originally hot heart quickly cooled down.

At the same time, she finally remembered, and now standing in front of her is one of the strongest in the wizarding world today-Dumbledore!

That can turn yourself into flying ash with a casual wave!

Did he take the wrong medicine to dare to be arrogant in front of him?

Under Dumbledore's powerful pressure, Umbridge's face turned pale, his body trembling like chaff, and finally turned around and ran away.

When everyone in the auditorium looked at Umbridge's embarrassed back, they all cheered, and even Professor McGonagall, who used to be unsmiling in the past, had a smile on his face.

"Well, everyone!" Dumbledore waved his hand. "Now is not the time to celebrate, we have one more important thing to do-to tear down the punishment room!"

After hearing the words, everyone rushed out of the auditorium, cheering and walking to the punishment room.

Hogwarts' punishment room is located in the basement of the castle like the potions professor. It is almost perfectly in line with all people's illusions about the prison cell-wet, dark, and dirty.

And on the wall of the punishment room are many strangely shaped torture instruments, which not only have ordinary ropes and chains, but also have many sharp weapons.

Unlike ordinary instruments of torture, most of these instruments of torture are magical.

For example, the rope above can automatically tie people up, and sharp tools such as knives and nails have a series of functions including automatic cleaning.

In the past few weeks, Hogwarts students can be said to have suffered greatly, and now seeing these culprits is naturally angered.

"Smash them!"

The crowd didn't know who suddenly yelled at such a sentence, and then the scene got out of control. Everyone swarmed up and began to destroy everything in the punishment room, even the floor in the room.

Dumbledore stood not far away and watched all this with a smile, with no intention of stopping.

And beside him, this was Filch, who was crouching and trembling all over.

The torture instruments in the disciplinary room were all left by the previous principal. These things were originally to be disposed of, but he kept them privately and carefully maintained them, hoping that they would be seen again one day for use. Punish those disobedient students.

It can be said that the reason why Umbridge's punishment room can be built so smoothly is largely due to Filch.

If he hadn't contributed so many well-preserved instruments of torture, Umbridge's punishment room might have not been fixed until now.

So Filch was in a panic at the moment. If Dumbledore really wanted to ask a question, he would probably be driven out of Hogwarts!

However, what Filch was most worried about did not happen. Until the punishment room was completely destroyed, the Slytherins also took off the green armband representing rights. Dumbledore did not mention anything about punishing him.

Dumbledore just patted Filch on the shoulder, and then announced it was time for lunch!

The house elves obviously also received the news of Dumbledore's return in advance, so today's lunch at Hogwarts has become particularly rich, and it can almost be regarded as a small banquet.

This undoubtedly brought the joyful atmosphere to the next level. Franklin was gnawing on chicken legs while telling Mike over and over again that he would be back in Quidditch.

There are many people who are as excited as Franklin. Everyone is talking freely while eating delicious food. The laughter and joy of students echoed throughout the auditorium.

And in such a scene of singing and dancing, Mike found a different place.

Harry!

Harry didn't fill his mouth with food like Ron on the side of Gryffindor's dinner table. Instead, he covered his forehead with one hand and lowered his head in silence.

In an instant, Mike thought of a possibility, and a smile appeared on his face.

...

"Harry, I found you a little strange at noon. Is it unwell?"

In the afternoon, in the lobby of Hogwarts, Mike stopped Harry, who had put on a suit and was ready to go to Quidditch training with his companions.

When he heard Mike's words, the members of the surrounding Gryffindor school team all turned their attention to Harry.

"Um, I'm just a little tired. I didn't sleep well last night." Harry looked a little ugly. "You know, headaches and nightmares. But don't worry, this is an old problem. Mrs. Pomfrey last year. I've seen it."

The smile on Mike's face flashed away, and he put on a worried expression and asked:

"Nightmare? What kind of nightmare?"

Harry's gaze swept across the people around him, and he hesitated for a moment before he said slightly embarrassed:

"I dreamt that I became a snake, a python. In the dream, I seemed to have entered a room, and then I kept crawling inside, and kept crawling."

Hearing this, the Gryffindors around them all showed weird looks. You must know that snakes are the symbolic animals of Slytherin. Harry, a Gryffindor, would even dream of becoming a snake. This is not What a good sign.

The Mike on the side heard the words and grabbed Harry and dragged him into the castle.

"Wait! Wait, Mike! What are you doing?"

"Of course it's taking you to find Dumbledore. Your thing is not easy!"

"But I still have to train!"

Mike stopped, turned his head and looked at the Gryffindors beside him blankly and said:

"I'll take Harry to the doctor, are you okay?"

Everyone in Gryffindor shook their heads quickly, not to mention Mike's reason is normal, just because of Mike's strength and prestige, they dare not refute Mike.

When Harry saw this, he was helpless, and could only re-enter the castle slowly with Mike.

Then the two first visited Professor McGonagall, and then they were taken to the principal's office by Professor McGonagall.

Due to busy work, Professor McGonagall left after entering the password, and when Mike and Harry entered the principal's room, a beautiful flaming bird fell on Mike's shoulder.

Harry was stunned, and he also knew Dumbledore's Phoenix-Fox.

But he has not seen Fox get close to anyone but Dumbledore.

"Oh! Two gentlemen, please sit down, I should have some sweets." Dumbledore stood up from behind the eagle-leg table. "Mike, Fox still likes you so much. It's really funny. "

Although he was reluctant to come at first, Harry was still extremely excited after seeing Dumbledore.

"Principal Dumbledore!" Harry said excitedly, "Where have you been all this time!"

"This question is a long story. I visited an old friend. Since he is in a very remote place, none of you can contact me." Dumbledore's hand holding sweets and refreshments stiffened slightly. "Then Now, what do you want to do with me?"

"Harry's headaches are getting worse and he has even started to have nightmares recently."

While talking, Mike took fresh Baixian from his pocket and fed it to Phoenix Fox.

Dumbledore's expression suddenly became serious, and asked:

"What kind of nightmare?"

"Uh, I became a python and crawled in a room." Harry said, shivering, as if he would remember the feeling at the time, "I even rubbed its scales against the ground. I can feel the touch, that dream is too real, it’s so real that I’m a little creepy!"

"Other than that? Are there any other symptoms?"

"There is also a headache. Recently my scars have started to hurt again. But I think it shouldn't matter? After all, I showed Mrs. Pomfrey last year. She said it might be because of my psychological pressure. too big."

Dumbledore didn't reply, he lowered his head in thought, and Harry, who had not received a sure answer in this strange silence, was full of tension.

And Mike next to him was watching Dumbledore seriously.

Mike is actually clear about the principle of Harry's dreaming. As one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, Harry and Voldemort actually have some kind of thought link.

In other words, Harry's dreams were largely Voldemort's ideas.

As for the dream Harry had now, if nothing else, the follow-up development should be Voldemort's serpent Nagini going to attack Arthur Weasley.

Originally the plot was not important, but now it is different.

You must know that the python Nagini is actually one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, and because it stays with Voldemort all the year round, it can be said to be one of the most difficult Horcruxes to be destroyed.

If Nagini really went to attack Arthur Weasley alone this time, then this is the best time to get rid of it.

Of course, in order to improve the success rate of the plan, Mike also needs the help of Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix.

This is why Mike brought Harry to visit Dumbledore in the first place.

"I see, Harry." Dumbledore said after a long silence. "Your situation is very special, and your recent pressure is also very high. So let's go to Umbridge for the time being. The professor has been punished by confinement, and Quidditch training also needs to stop. During this time, you should concentrate on studying and rest."

Hearing that Harry immediately quit, you know that he is Gryffindor's seeker, if he is missing, the entire team can be said to be suspended.

So Harry said immediately:

"But we are going to participate in the competition soon!"

"Harry I know you are eager to win the Quidditch competition, but I think your body is more important than a trophy."

"Mike is right." Dumbledore shook his head helplessly, "Well, Harry. Let's observe for a while, so you can rest for a while. If your condition improves, then you can continue to participate. Training, of course, and confinement will also be closed. And if your condition worsens, then I'm sorry, I may temporarily leave you to go to St Mungo for treatment."

Hearing that, Harry's face was green, and the expression of Mike beside him was not very good.

Now it seems that Dumbledore obviously hasn't realized the seriousness of this incident. He even thinks that the reason why Harry has this symptom is entirely because he was hit in the head by a killing curse when he was a child.

Shaking his head, Mike has made up his mind.

If this time Dumbledore is still as indifferent as he appeared in the original book, then he can only act alone!
