Since he dealt with Fred and George, Filch's previously accumulated depression has been swept away. Now he is not only happy and healthy, but even his food tastes better than before.
After dinner, Filch walked towards the dungeon where the Weasley twins were imprisoned, preparing to let the hungry Weasley twins clean the chamber pot in the school hospital. He had always believed that as long as he worked more, he would eat more.
A little pain can help them get rid of their naughty habits.
Just when Filch thought he would see the languid Weasley twins, he found that the dungeon was actually empty, and the Weasley brothers who were originally locked inside were missing.
Filch looked at the empty dungeon and was stunned. He couldn't help but tremble all over. He didn't know whether he was angry or just too excited.
For Filch, the twins' "prison escape" was actually not too bad news.
Because those two ungrateful little beasts must still be at Hogwarts, and as long as they are still at Hogwarts, they will not be able to escape punishment. Their new principal is not as tolerant as Dumbledore, and he will definitely not
Allowing someone to get away with it.
The series of changes happening in Hogwarts today are really wonderful for Filch.
Filch immediately went to the principal's office and reported the news to the lady. The naughty little beasts must be punished even more severely. He would definitely beat them to pieces with a whip so that no one would dare to violate the school rules again.
Already.
After learning the news about Fred and George's "prison escape", Umbridge not only didn't get angry, but became angry, and the smile on her face actually became brighter.
"So, they didn't want to accept the punishment and ran away?"
After listening to Filch's report, Umbridge glanced at the two wands on the shelf and continued to ask: "Do you know who helped them escape from the dungeon?"
"I don't know yet." Filch bowed his head and said respectfully, "But I think it will be very difficult for those two little beasts to escape on their own after losing their wands."
"That's it, you go post a notice and let them go back to the dungeon to accept the punishment. If they don't go back to accept the punishment tomorrow, they will be punished more severely and even be expelled from Hogwarts." Umri.
Qi picked up the quill, scribbled an announcement on the parchment and gave it to Filch, asking him to take it and put it on the bulletin board.
If Weasley is unwilling to give in, then he can take this opportunity to fire them, and also give everyone a warning. They must know the price to pay for disobeying her.
The news of the Weasley brothers' "prison escape" spread quickly in Hogwarts Castle like wings. Everyone was extremely angry at Umbridge's actions, but there was nothing they could do about it.
Several people dared to challenge the authority of the new principal.
After this incident spread, Fred and George never appeared in front of people and simply ignored Umbridge's threats.
For this reason, everyone was surprised by Fred and George's boldness, and they were all discussing whether they would really be fired if they didn't show up.
After Professor McGonagall learned the news, she almost went crazy and asked Albert to be called over to learn about the situation.
"They probably escaped."
Facing the gloomy Professor McGonagall, Albert said lightly: "Those two guys have always wanted to drop out of school and open their joke shop."
"Open a store? You mean..."
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Professor McGonagall frowned slightly, walked over and opened the door, and found Umbridge standing outside with a fake smile on her face.
"What's the matter?" Professor McGonagall asked impatiently.
"I'm here to talk to you about Weasley." Umbridge said her purpose with a smile. She obviously enjoyed enjoying Professor McGonagall's anger and helplessness.
"I'm understanding the specific situation with Mr. Anderson." Professor McGonagall said expressionlessly, "If you want to hear the reason, come in and hear what the situation is now!"
Umbridge glanced at Albert who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, walked up to Albert with a smile, and coughed twice. However, Albert didn't seem to hear it and directly told Umbridge
I ignored it, as if there was nothing more worthy of attention than the black tea in my hand.
"You can continue, Mr. Anderson." Professor McGonagall ignored Umbridge and sat opposite Albert.
"What did you say just now? Oh, I think Fred and George couldn't bear it anymore, so they just dropped out of school." Albert took a sip of the black tea and continued: "They had thought about it before.
Leave school and start a business..."
"Ahem..."
Umbridge coughed again, this time louder.
"As you can see, their products are selling well at Hogwarts, so there is no need to worry too much about the failure of the business." Albert comforted: "Maybe they will live more comfortably than those who work at the Ministry of Magic.
.”
Umbridge coughed loudly again, but both Albert and Professor McGonagall continued talking as if nothing happened.
"So, you think they have left school and dropped out on their own." Professor McGonagall's expression was extremely complicated. She knew about this when she gave them employment consultation, but she didn't expect...
"It's impossible for them to leave the school." Umbridge interrupted with a dark face, "Besides, it's impossible for them to break free of the chains and leave the dungeon alone."
"There must be. Everyone knows that Fred and George are more familiar with the various secret passages in the school than Filch, and there are secret passages in Hogwarts that can leave the school. If you don't believe me, you can ask Filch."
Albert put down his teacup, turned his head and looked at Umbridge with a smile, "This is actually common sense. Many people know that Sirius Black broke into Hogwarts through the secret passage, but most people don't know
The specific location of the secret passage.
"It was you who let them go." Umbridge stared at Albert and said suddenly, "They don't have wands and can't break free of their chains. It was you..."
"Do you need evidence for slander?" Albert responded to Umbridge's gaze with a smile, and reminded him kindly: "If there is no evidence, I will sue you for libel. Well, it seems that the Ministry of Magic has not perfected the libel crime.
You should complete the laws in this area. I think it is reasonable to compensate for mental damages."
"Ahem, if it's okay, you can go out first." Professor McGonagall coughed lightly, not wanting to cause an unpleasant conflict between Albert and Umbridge.
She knew very well that Albert didn't pay attention to Umbridge at all, or he didn't care at all.
"They actually don't care. I'm sure of this, so don't worry about them. They are all adults and have to be responsible for their own choices." Albert left these words, opened the office door and left.
Already.
"It seems that they have to be fired in advance. I hope you can write a letter to inform..."
"It hasn't been officially determined yet, has it?" Professor McGonagall interrupted impatiently, "Just because we suspected that they dropped out on their own, we directly announced that they dropped out..."
"It's not dropping out, it's expulsion." Umbridge corrected.
"What if we encounter other situations?" Professor McGonagall said impatiently, "At least we need to confirm the specific circumstances of the whole thing first and make sure that they have left the school and were not knocked unconscious and hidden."
"You mean they didn't leave the dungeon on their own, but someone forced them to leave?" Umbridge raised her eyebrows slightly, seeming to find Professor McGonagall's statement very ridiculous.
"Who knows?" Professor McGonagall continued without even looking at Umbridge, "This is not the first time this has happened. At least, I think that as a professor who teaches others knowledge, you need to do your best to
Handle everything impartially because we are role models for our students."
With these words, Professor McGonagall almost pointed at Umbridge and scolded Umbridge for not being worthy of being a professor.
Umbridge's face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye, and before she could speak, a sharp sound of fireworks suddenly sounded outside.
I saw that something seemed to explode in the night sky, and the sky outside the window showed a forest-green fluorescence.
Professor McGonagall walked to the window and looked out, and saw something that looked like the Dark Mark shining in the sky above Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Unlike the Dark Mark, the poisonous snake does not emerge from the mouth of the skull, but from the mouth of the toad.
"what is that?"
Professor McGonagall turned to ask Umbridge. That voice, that tone, that tone seemed to confirm that the strange mark shining over the castle was caused by Umbridge.
"How would I know."
Umbridge's face was very dark because the mark on her head looked too much like Voldemort's Dark Mark, except that the original skull turned into a toad with an open mouth.
"You don't know? But it says that the Toad Alliance is recruiting members." Professor McGonagall pointed to a line of words that just appeared next to the mark, as if she was sure that this matter was related to Umbridge.
"It must be them, it must be those two bastards, I must expel them." Umbridge was extremely annoyed by Professor McGonagall's suspicious eyes, and kept nagging and cursing in her mouth.
"We have no evidence." Professor McGonagall glanced at the furious Umbridge and reminded calmly, "Albert is right, everything must be based on evidence. We cannot slander other people, let alone let them go.
Get past the culprits."
"I don't need you to preach!" Umbridge slammed the door and left in frustration.
"Toad?"
Professor McGonagall looked at the mark on the sky and sighed softly. She actually guessed who did this. There were not many students who had the courage to do such a thing under Umbridge's eyes.
The sharp sound of fireworks and the flashing marks in the sky made more and more students pay attention to the toad mark on the Quidditch pitch. Especially after the "Toad League Recruiting Members" appeared, the entire Hogwarts Castle was completely blown up.
After that, the whole Hogwarts heard the cry of wolves and howls of ghosts, and people were responding to the toad mark in the sky.
It really made Umbridge very angry.
As long as you stand at the window and look up, it is not difficult to see the toad marks and waving advertisements on the Quidditch pitch.
People are discussing who did this.
After people came to their senses, they quickly locked onto the target.
Fred and George.
This matter was most likely done by the Weasley brothers. People were discussing this matter loudly and did not forget to mock Umbridge's toad mark. Some students even drew it and planned to use it as the symbol of the Toad Alliance.
mark.
At this moment, Umbridge was rushing to the Quidditch pitch in a rage to eliminate the toad mark floating over Hogwarts School. She knew very well that she could not let this matter continue.
Just when Umbridge took out her wand and prepared to dispel the mark on her head, she suddenly heard the click of a camera around her.
Then, a light shone in the darkness, and before Umbridge could turn her head to look, she felt her whole body spinning. When she reacted, she was already hanging head-down in the air, as if there was an invisible hook hooking Umbridge.
Richie's ankles and hung him upside down.
Umbridge struggled in panic, and the wand in her hand fell to the ground in panic.
However, the attackers never appeared or made a sound. They left quietly without leaving any evidence.
There are various indications that this matter could not have been done by the Weasley brothers, because they did not have wands at all, so how could they attack and subdue Umbridge?
However, Fred and George's wands were indeed temporarily confiscated by Umbridge. However, it was indeed them who attacked Umbridge in a hurry.
The two borrowed new wands from Albert, hid on the Quidditch pitch to finish their work, and were about to leave. Unexpectedly, Umbridge came here alone, and she didn't bring her gang of thugs with her.
Fred and George both thought this was a good opportunity. After discussion, they decided to give each other some surprises, which led to the scene where the upside-down golden clock was used.
As for the wand confiscated by Umbridge, it was quietly taken away by Albert when Umbridge left the castle in a hurry.
