Chapter 390： conflict

When Ryan and Hermione returned to the common room, they saw Ron flipping over a parchment letter. And Harry said something beside him.

"Who sent you the letter?" Ryan asked curiously.

"Percy, he asked me and Harry to settle a little recently. Try to be transparent in front of Umbridge. Because he found that Foggy's ideas are getting more and more radical now, worrying that the two of us will be involved in this kind of storm. Clean up. Oh, he ran as a hero himself and is now being driven out of the office. He is now taking the risk of patrolling a place full of black wizards and evil creatures, but keeping his brother far away. " Ron uttered a loud voice in disapproval.

"Ron, your brother is also good for you." Hermione said. "At least he feels that you are still students and should enjoy campus life. And I think at least we can guarantee that there will be no chaos in this kind of thing, so that they don't have to worry about us and they have already helped them a lot."

"He's always right. This has been true since childhood." Ron shook his head helplessly. "I admit that what he said makes sense, but I don't think it means I can't do anything in this regard."

"Okay, maybe you can do well. But you'd better get a complete plan instead of just talking about it now." Ryan poured cold water on his head in due course.

"I must be able to come up with a suitable solution." Ron and Harry started to write down his homework after they finished. They had not finished the paper by Professor Snape. No matter how ambitious they were before, they would not dare not finish the homework of the potion professor.

The next morning the Owl sent a new issue of "The Prophet Daily." On the front page, a large photo of Dolores Umbridge was printed on the entire page. She smiled and blinked at them. The title was: The Ministry of Magic seeks educational reform. Dolores Umbridge was appointed as the first senior investigator.

"Fuji is too ugly to eat." Ryan glanced at the contents of the newspaper. "When he saw the benefits, he desperately extended his mouth to arch in the trough, and even some shameless people even stretched out their front hooves."

"What are you talking about?" Harry asked with some doubt.

"In an interim operation last night, the Ministry of Magic passed a new decree that brought its control of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft to an unprecedented level. For some time, the Minister has become increasingly disturbed by the current status of Hogwarts. The teaching in this school has deviated from the right track, and even most parents are affected and do not know what is the correct teaching method. "Hermione picked up the newspaper and read it aloud, attracting many people to read it.

In recent weeks, Minister Connelly Fudge has not adopted the new law for the first time to implement improvements to the magic school. On August 30th, the Education Order No. 22 was passed not long ago to ensure that if the current principal cannot provide a candidate for a certain teaching position, the Ministry of Magic will recommend a suitable candidate.

"Dumbledore couldn't find anyone, and the minister appointed Umbridge. Needless to say, she immediately succeeded--" "What did she do right away?" Harry asked with some surprise. "Wait, it's not over yet." Hermione said flatly.

"--The immediate success was a breakthrough in the Black Magic Defense class, and timely feedback to the minister on the real situation of Hogwarts. The minister tried to control the decline in the so-called Hogwarts education level. This is an exciting new initiative in the situation plan. The investigator will have the right to review her faculty and colleagues to ensure that they all meet the standard. Professor Umbridge was awarded this position outside of his faculty, we It ’s a pleasure to tell everyone that she has accepted it. ”

"But why no one asks us and our parents' opinions?" There was a voice from the surrounding people. "My father wrote a letter yesterday and still worried that I might not pass the final exam."

"I think we and the parents might be represented." Ryan took another newspaper and read, "These new measures from the Ministry of Magic have been enthusiastically supported by Hogwarts parents. Lu Xiu, 41, Mr. Smalford said in his Wiltshire mansion last night that many of us who care about the vital interests of our children have been worried about Dumbledore ’s eccentric decision-making in recent years, and now learn that the Ministry of Magic is paying close attention to this The situation is very gratifying. "

Disapproving boos rang around, especially after everyone discovered that the so-called parents were those of pure-blood aristocratic families. It's a pity they can't do anything as a student, and they disperse after venting their emotions. But when leaving, almost everyone was discussing what the newspaper would bring to the school.

At the same time, in the principal's office, Fudge was announcing the appointment of Umbridge to Dumbledore.

"I won't accept it." Dumbledore's blue eyes sparkled with flames. "Connelly, I think you should do some real things, like catching the ten jailbreaking Death Eaters, instead of—"

"You must accept, this is the Ministry of Magic's decision." Fudge said toughly, "The senior investigator is Dolores? Umbridge, Hogwarts is not your school alone! I have passed all before Of the school ’s directors and other directors of the school have accepted this decision, so you must accept it! Otherwise, we need to consider changing the principal! ”

"Okay, she can hold this position, but it must not have any influence on the school's teaching, otherwise I will drive her out without saying a word!" Dumbledore said with anger. "But I think you--"

Before he finished, Fudge disappeared from the fireplace.

In Hogwarts, like other schools in the region, the board of directors is the institution that holds the power of the school, and the principals are only their employees. As a white wizard with a bottom line, in the case that Fudge is not a black wizard, Dumbledore must also act according to the rules, and cannot rely on his own strength to directly set the table. The reason why Fudge was able to perform retrograde actions was also related to this point. This is how a gentleman can deceive him ~ www.novelhall.com ~ I hope that Fudge wo n’t be able to get in the way. When Voldemort has returned, we ca n’t stand the internal friction anymore. "Principal Dumbledore, standing by the window, looked at the students on the playground and murmured.

In the following days, things really went in a bad direction. Umbridge began investigating every professor trying to find a breakthrough that would make her stand up, but it seemed that her plan was not going well. Those professors don't see such garbage in their eyes.

"You didn't take this class before, did you?" This was in the class of Professor Grapland who replaced Hagrid's magical biology class.

"Very correct, I'm glad you found this." Professor Grapland said, with his hands behind his back and tiptoe, "I am a substitute teacher and temporarily replace Professor Hagrid. So you asked me before I really ca n’t comment on other professors. Please stop asking me this question again and again. ”Professor Umbridge, who was choked by Professor Grapland, was speechless for a long time.

"Okay, just ask if you want, and by the way, you can tell me the answer you want me to answer, so that I don't answer what you want." Umbridge looked like a pig liver, Professor Grapland Helplessly spread his hands.

The students all laughed. When she took the class for Hagrid, everyone did not find the professor so humorous.

"You ... you ... you dare ... so ..."

"You are not satisfied with every sentence I answered. I asked you to tell me what you are satisfied with. You refused to say. I have only been to France for a few months before. Has it changed? Alas, it ’s hard to be a professor this year. "

The students laughed harder now, and even some Slytherin pure-blood wizards laughed.
