Chapter 1278 School Rules Revision and the Third Kind of Contact
Hermione's confusion was quickly answered.
The Hogwarts Great Hall on the day the results for the "Acting Headmaster" of Hogwarts were announced.
"I announce that Ms. Minerva McGonagall has been elected as the 'Acting Principal' - score 83:17."
As most people knew in advance, Professor McGonagall was successfully elected as the "Acting Principal" with an overwhelming majority.
As for Umbridge, she was still dealing with the chaotic flock of owls, and Scrimgeour's counterattack made the Ministry of Magic even more chaotic.
Cornelius Fudge was also busy dealing with questions from all walks of life, as well as the impeachment inquiry of the Wizengamot. Naturally, he could not free up his hands to help Umbridge win the principalship. Umbridge's support rate was at
It began to collapse rapidly overnight.
However, just when everyone was about to applaud and cheer, Professor McGonagall suddenly stood up and walked to the stage in the center of the auditorium.
"Please be quiet, everyone. I have several new school rules and resolutions to promulgate - I have this power, right?"
Professor McGonagall turned her head, glanced at Scrimgeour at the head of the faculty's table, and asked calmly.
"Of course, you are now the 'acting principal'."
Scrimgeour shrugged and replied, "According to the Education Order and the discussion results of the Hogwarts School Board, you enjoy all the powers of the official principal, revise the school rules and some supplementary rules, unless Professor Dumbledore returns to the school, no one will
You can veto your proposal."
"Very good... then, I just said it directly——"
Professor McGonagall nodded, looked at everyone, and let out a breath.
"I propose that the title of acting principal be cancelled."
"Until Professor Dumbledore returns, the campus will be temporarily jointly managed by the deans of the four colleges."
As she spoke, she took out a long piece of parchment from her sleeve and unfolded it like a freshman roster at the opening party.
"At the same time, I am revising Article 19 of the "Hogwarts School Rules" to redefine the replacement rules for the principal's failure to perform his duties and special circumstances. The new rules will clearly indicate that when the current principal is still alive and has not designated the next successor,
Under certain circumstances, Hogwarts does not accept the appointment of acting management from third-party personnel outside the school. The transitional manager for special periods should be selected from the deans of the four houses. If the four deans jointly nominate and guarantee, they can also be nominated by the deans.
The person is responsible for the management of school affairs..."
In Umbridge's gradually enlarging pupils, Professor McGonagall read the long piece of parchment unhurriedly.
You know, before coming to Hogwarts Castle to teach, she was also an elite member of the Ministry of Magic.
Drafting a rigorous and compliant supplementary documentation and agreement is not complicated for Professor McGonagall, and she has assistants to help.
"...At the same time, I announce that the review of all Hogwarts courses will be moved to the holidays, and there will no longer be any suspensions during this semester."
"The prefects of each college will go to the staff lounge to collect the class schedule later and check the adjustment of class time for each grade."
After Professor McGonagall finished reading the parchment she had collected, she took a deep look at Elena who was not far away.
Obviously, her move will anger the Ministry of Magic and the school board, but at the same time, it will also prevent any subsequent troubles from the regulations and school rules.
Unless the Ministry of Magic responds and counterattacks immediately, as time goes by, this proposal will soon become a formality and solidified in the tradition of Hogwarts.
It is difficult to revise the Hogwarts school rules because "maintaining tradition" is the only position of the school board and the Ministry of Magic.
As for counterattack...
Professor McGonagall recalled the front page of yesterday's newspaper and raised her eyebrows slightly.
The biggest headache for Cornelius Fudge and the officials at the Ministry of Magic now should be Lockhart, who suddenly ran for high-profile election.
Compared with Crouch who is in jail, Fudge who is plagued by scandals, and Scrimgeour who has left his post sadly, Lockhart's chances of succeeding in the election are really not small.
Mag didn't know what role Elena played in this, but she was certain of one thing:
That kid is on the same side as Hogwarts and will never harm this magic school.
…………
At the same time, Hufflepuff sat at the long table.
"Professor McGonagall is looking over again. Does she know about that?"
Hannah glanced at Professor McGonagall not far away with some worry, and whispered.
"After all, we..."
"Don't worry, don't worry, it's not a big problem——"
Elena said calmly, patted Little Tie Niu's waist gently, and replied in a low voice.
"We are just doing some renovation of old houses on the castle walls and empty rooms. This is actually similar to general cleaning."
"But - during general cleaning, we won't tear down the entire wall, let alone dig holes along the corridor..."
"That's called wiring, and...suspended ceiling."
Elena corrected her seriously and looked around at the brightly lit auditorium.
"Hogwarts has a history of more than a thousand years. Some designs can be preserved, but some designs need to be updated."
"Furthermore, there will be a large-scale expansion of enrollment in the next semester. We must clear out enough classrooms and school buildings in advance, and surveillance networks and magic book signal transfer points must be set up in the castle bit by bit. Anyway, Dumbledore is not here for the time being.
, we just take this opportunity to let the wind of science blow in the magical world."
"Then what if... Hogwarts Castle doesn't agree?" Hermione asked in a low voice, "That energy... is obtained from the castle's 'magnetic field', right?"
"Hogwarts Castle will agree. The institute has found a suitable band -"
Elena blinked, tapped her fingers on the magic book beside her, and replied with a disapproving smile.
"It can be negotiated. Anyway, we have evaluated the castle's mentality in advance - it can't escape here, so we will definitely agree."
