After Umbridge became a senior investigator through the Ministry of Magic's education order, it did not add much deterrence to the students at Hogwarts.
In everyone's impression, she is still the jumping toad professor.
Because the impression was so profound and there were related photos, occasionally some students got too excited and called Umbridge a pink toad.
The outcome is predictable—imprisonment.
As a result, a few more people were lucky enough to taste Umbridge's Punishment Quill.
Even though Dumbledore had explicitly prohibited professors from using dark magic items to punish students, he was still ignored by the furious Umbridge.
The innocent principal was shot dead because of this and received a large number of letters of complaint.
In fact, the Daily Prophet receives several similar letters every day, and "someone" even deliberately sends a roaring letter to the newspaper, but it still doesn't surprise anyone.
The response of the entire British wizarding community to the Ministry of Magic's interference in Hogwarts was quite slow, or in other words, numb. In fact, wizards did not pay as much attention to the educational issues of Hogwarts as expected.
have no idea?
How can it be!
The Daily Prophet clearly reported that Umbridge became the Senior Inquisitor, and that Lucius Malfoy appeared in the newspaper on behalf of "all parents."
The only opposition voices came from the elders of the Wizengamot, Gsilda Marchbain and Tiberus Ogden, who resigned in protest against the appointment of inquisitors to Hogwarts.
This matter was included in the Daily Prophet thanks to the importance of the members of the Wizengamot.
However--
British wizards are indifferent to this matter, even if the education issue may involve their own children.
Of course, you may also be forced by life and fear that if you say one more word, you will be persecuted and expelled from the Ministry of Magic.
Wizards don't give up their decent jobs at the Ministry of Magic easily.
Albert was equally indifferent to these matters and always adhered to the attitude of "don't worry about it."
As for questions raised by doubtful students after reading the Daily Prophet, Albert asked them to write letters back to their families.
Speaking of which, the most amazing part of the whole thing is that Albert found out that he was about to become a new member of the Wizengamot.
The Wizengamot naturally has substitute members, but they are not substitutes on the surface, but substitutes who have been reserved in private.
However, Albert was the obvious substitute.
Once there is a vacancy among the members of the Wizengamot, Albert needs to fill it.
For this reason, Fudge claimed that Albert had not graduated from school and was unable to fulfill his responsibilities as a member of the Wizengamot, and was preparing to let his own people take over.
This argument obviously failed to convince other Wizengamot members.
Fudge, who once again faced direct protests from Wizengamot members, could only hold back his anger and smile.
When facing this group of elderly people, Fudge did not dare to go too far. Because he might stir up a hornet's nest. How could an old and high-ranking member of the Wizengamot not use his own methods?
If it really wasn't there, someone would have removed it from its position long ago.
You must know that there are only fifty members of the Wizengamot. If no one steps down, how can others come up?
After a vote by the members of the Wizengamot, it was decided that no new members would be added for the time being.
Now, everyone is whispering that Fudge will step down next year. Who knows whether Mrs. Marchbaan and Mr. Ogden will return to the Wizengamot after Fudge leaves the position of Minister of Magic?
As for the official replacement member Albert Anderson.
Everyone recognized his abilities and were willing to accept Albert as one of them, but Albert was too young and needed someone to lead him to get familiar with the Wizengamot instead of pushing him into that position.
Not long after Fudge left the Wizengamot meeting room with a dark face, Percy Weasley brought him another bad news.
"Some people predict that I will be kicked out before the end of next summer." Fudge's eyes widened and he roared at Percy.
"Many people believed it."
Percy took out his handkerchief and wiped the saliva from his face, and said helplessly.
Fudge suddenly understood why those old immortals wanted to leave their seats vacant.
That day, Fudge locked himself in his office, and anyone passing by the Minister of Magic's office could hear the sound of things being smashed inside.
In fact, not only did Fudge encounter bad things, but Umbridge, who was far away at Hogwarts, also encountered a lot of trouble.
The position of Senior Investigator did not make Umbridge's actions at Hogwarts smoother. On the contrary, the position caused her a lot of trouble.
A large number of "Defense Express" magazines suddenly appeared in the school and quickly became popular among students, becoming a popular publication.
Although Umbridge reacted promptly and banned "Defense Letter" at lightning speed, it still could not stop the fact that "Defense Letter" spread wildly in Hogwarts Castle.
Everyone always finds a way to hide from Umbridge. Is it possible that students will be expelled for reading "Defense Letters"?
Dumbledore is still at Hogwarts!
In order to strengthen their authority, new educational orders sprung up like mushrooms after rain.
Umbridge's series of actions seemed to completely offend the students at Hogwarts.
In the following days, one shouting letter after another kept greeting her in the face, making Umbridge extremely embarrassed.
She had to ban the Red Howler letters from entering Hogwarts, and sent wizards from the Ministry of Magic to check the letters received by Hogwarts students.
However, she still couldn't resist the crazy howling letters.
People borrowed owls from the Owlery at Hogwarts in advance and released them directly in the castle during breakfast, creating the illusion that someone was sending a howling letter to Umbridge.
The offensive of crazy howling letters finally changed completely after Umbridge used magic to brutally kill an owl that sent the letter.
From then on, no owl sent any more howling letters to Umbridge.
Because these smoking red cuties seemed to have grown wings on their own and flew quietly into Umbridge's bedroom, bringing unexpected surprises to Umbridge in her sleep.
At this point, Umbridge no longer stayed at Hogwarts overnight, but used Floo powder to go home to rest every day to avoid suffering a nervous breakdown.
She was now a little doubtful whether she was right to accept Fudge's appointment. She had not slept peacefully for a few days since she arrived at Hogwarts.
However, after just a few days of peaceful sleep, Umbridge encountered other troubles.
A student secretly leaked the news to her, saying that ghost radios appeared in the common rooms of various colleges and broadcast the wizard's lookout station's broadcasts on time every day.
To this end, Umbridge gave an order to the prefects of each house, asking them to confiscate the radios in their respective common rooms, and once again banned the use of radios by Hogwarts students.
However, there are many wonderful things this semester.
The prefects unanimously claimed that after picking up the ghost radio, they themselves disappeared.
Umbridge felt that her prefects were deliberately perverting her, so she planned to personally search the common rooms of each house.
It's a pity that Umbridge can't even enter Ravenclaw House.
With her mind filled with politics, she had long forgotten the wisdom of Ravenclaw.
For this reason, after learning that Umbridge was actually a Ravenclaw student, a large group of Ravenclaw students tried to expel her from Ravenclaw House. They did not want to admit that the idiot was actually from Ravenclaw.
Crowe.
All right!
Many students think that Umbridge is from Slytherin, and she has a good relationship with the Slytherin students.
…
"What are you doing here?"
Albert, who had just returned from the library, walked to the corridor near the Fat Lady's portrait and found that the corridor was crowded with Gryffindor students.
When Albert looked across the crowd and saw Umbridge standing in front of the Fat Lady's portrait, he guessed the reason.
"The password seems to have been changed." Lee Jordan winked at Albert and said.
Has the Fat Lady’s password really changed?
Of course not, everyone just doesn't want Umbridge in the Gryffindor common room, that's all.
In fact, a similar case also happened in front of the Ravenclaw lounge. A large number of people crowded at the entrance, but no one wanted to come forward to answer the question.
"Give it!"
Albert pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the portrait of the Fat Lady. He glanced at Umbridge, who was staring at him, and asked doubtfully, "Professor, what's the matter?"
"I suspect there are illegal items in the Gryffindor common room, and I'm going to check it out." Umbridge still had a false smile on her face.
However, the smile looked a little stiff.
"Illegal items?" Albert asked pretending to be surprised.
"Let the portrait open the door, don't tell me you don't know the password!" Umbridge stared at Albert.
"The password is: Open Sesame!" Albert said without thinking.
"The password is correct!" The fat lady turned and opened the door to the common room.
"Okay, let's go in. Don't crowd and enter the lounge in an orderly manner!"
Albert walked into the lounge first, but he didn't know who was crowding there. Umbridge, who was not tall at first, was pushed aside and bumped into the aisle.
Umbridge got up from the ground in embarrassment, and glanced at the students returning to the common room with a frustrated look. However, she was shocked to find that there were no students in the common room, and no one knew where they had gone.
When Albert carried Tom Cat downstairs, he found that Umbridge was still there, and other people were lined up in two rows in the lounge.
"What the hell are you doing!" Albert asked with a frown.
"Umbridge thinks we have hidden the radio and she is reviewing it..."
"Radio? Is that thing that appears on time every day by the fireplace?" Albert put Tom on the armchair, took out his pocket watch from his pocket and looked at the time and said, "You didn't tell her that the radio would be on time every day?"
Appear and disappear on time?"
"We said it! But she just doesn't want to believe it." One student said, winking at Albert innocently.
"If I were you, I would wait for the radio to appear on its own. If you think it is contraband, take it away instead of asking someone else for a radio." Albert waved his hand impatiently and asked for a radio.
The armchair automatically appeared behind Umbridge, and Umbridge, who was about to speak, suddenly felt her legs weaken and fell into the armchair.
"And you guys, don't stand here and get in the way. How can you let others go back to the dormitory?" Albert glanced at the others and said, "Don't you have anything else to do at night?"
After hearing what Albert said, the other students dispersed and went to do their own things.
Albert also found a seat to sit down and read the books he borrowed from the library.
Fred and George were teasing the cat with cat sticks, and everyone automatically ignored Umbridge.
At this moment, the wizard's lookout station's broadcast came quietly from the fireplace.
Welcome to Wizard's Watch.
The theme of this issue is: How much do you know about pink toads?
What do you mean by pink toad?
That is the nickname of Dolores Umbridge. According to the news that this station received a while ago, Dolores Umbridge was turned into a pink toad not long ago.
Oh my God, whose idea is this? Let us applaud him...
Umbridge's face turned an ugly pig liver color, and she suddenly pulled out her wand, preparing to blow up the radio on the fireplace.
However, just as Umbridge was about to use the spell, she found that her spell was interrupted.
"Don't use dark magic in the common room. There are many students here. It would be bad if it affects other students." Albert closed the book behind the brick, looked at Umbridge who had a look of astonishment on his face, and said calmly.
Said: "If you feel that the radio needs to be destroyed, you can take it away and destroy it somewhere no one is around, but not here. What if your explosive spell accidentally affects other people? And
The explosive spell is a more dangerous form of black magic. You should not take the lead in using black magic. This is a bad example."
The next moment, the students in the common room stood up and applauded Albert.
Umbridge's face turned even darker. She stared at Albert with a murderous look, quickly stepped forward to pick up the radio that was still chattering, and threw it to the ground, but Sirius was still playing on the radio.
Voice: Umbridge's favorite lie: My father was an outstanding figure in the Wizengamot. However, Umbridge's father is actually still alive. He actually fought at the Ministry of Magic...
The sound suddenly stopped, and everyone stared at the culprit.
Panting, Umbridge raised her wand and used the freezing spell to temporarily freeze the radio.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Umbridge hurriedly took away the radio.
Everyone felt very sorry for this. They wanted to know Mr. Umbridge's true identity and were curious about what shocking news the Wizard's Lookout was going to reveal about the pink toad.
"Does any of you have a radio?"
Someone shouted in the common room, but no one responded.
Everyone is very interested in Umbridge's gossip.
Just as people were sighing, a loud explosion suddenly sounded outside. Everyone rushed out of the common room. When they followed the sound, they were shocked to find that Umbridge, who was covered in charred skin, was being carried on a stretcher.
Apparently, Umbridge was trying to destroy the radio.
