Eight hundred and seventieth chapters confrontation
"It's just some simple tricks..."
Hermione glanced at Luna who was hesitant to speak, and seemed to read through her thoughts.
"Yes, I dare say you should have guessed the reason." She said, "Obviously, at least not all courses require full attention - for example, some self-study courses by copying notes - Elena and I
It’s my deskmate.”
"Professors at Hogwarts are not so easily deceived. Isn't she worried about being put in jail after being discovered?!"
Luna's eyes widened in shock. Under the nose of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, she secretly wrote assignments for other subjects using binary rewind structure transformation magic. This daring magical operation turned out to be that white-haired dumpling.
style of.
If you think about it carefully, there are indeed not many wizards in Hogwarts Castle today who are capable of seeing through her illusions.
Then, Miss Lovegood suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked expectantly.
"Hermione, do you think I can try this? Professor Umbridge's class is really difficult..."
"Luna!" Hermione said, "It's not a good idea to blindly imitate Elena. She's not like us -"
"It can't be just the two of you who can do homework in class," Luna said. "At least tell me a little trick, the best head coach in the world, Hermione Granger. For example, how do you accomplish those things?"
Excerpts from class...
"Okay, I can tell you a little trick."
Hermione thought for a while, made up her mind and said softly.
"I don't know about the construction of the illusion, after all, I spend most of my time inside the magic light curtain, but as for how to quickly deal with the boring course copying of that Ministry of Magic official, there is a very simple way - transfiguration.
"
She dragged the school bag next to her, took out the parchment, ink and textbook, and looked at Luna seriously.
"But you know our previous agreement, if you want to create an illusion, you have to let Hannah come in, not alone."
If you wear a mask for too long, it’s easy to forget what you look like under the mask.
This is a warning that Elena once seriously mentioned when teaching Luna to learn the magic of binary reversion structure transformation.
Not only Luna, Hermione, and Hannah also gave similar instructions when they mastered certain powers, and asked them to supervise each other to prevent each other from becoming strange in unfamiliar areas.
Unlike dark magic in the open, seemingly harmless "everyday" magic can often be more dangerous once abused.
"Well, I haven't forgotten that."
Luna wrinkled her face, pouted slightly, and complained in a distressed voice.
"How could Professor Dumbledore let such a bureaucrat teach us Defense Against the Dark Arts? If we just copy books every day, we might as well buy our own books and teach ourselves. I heard from senior students that Professor Lupin's class is not like this...
…”
"Cherish the precious time now. When you want to be lazy later, you will miss Professor Umbridge."
Hermione imitated a certain inscrutable tone and replied with a naughty blink.
"Don't ask me why, this is what Elena said a few days ago. She has always been very well-informed, but I really can't ask her. If you have any guesses later, we can discuss it together."
"Well! By the way, speaking of Professor Luping, I discovered a strange thing..."
Luna nodded vigorously, and then whispered with some uncertainty.
At this moment, the training of several other Quidditch players in the sky finally ended, and they landed lightly on the edge of the stands where Hermione and Luna were. After hesitating for a few seconds, Luna did not move.
Finish the rest.
Forget it, maybe it was her illusion...

Meanwhile, Dolores Umbridge's office.
Due to the limited number of vacant rooms on the fourth floor of the castle, or for other reasons, she did not move near the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office, but found an empty room on the sixth floor as her office at Hogwarts.
Remus Lupine took a deep breath and walked to the wooden door marked [Umbridge].
He knocked on the door and heard a sweet voice shouting: "Please come in."
Lu Ping opened the door and walked in. He was greeted by a dizzying heat wave and a strange incense.
This was the first time he had come to Umbridge's office. It didn't feel like he was in Hogwarts Castle.
Different from the plain rooms of other professors, everything here is covered with lace covercloths and tablecloths, and there are several vases filled with dried flowers, each placed on a separate small cushion. One wall
Hanging is a set of decorative plates, each with a large, brightly colored cat wearing a different bow around its neck.
These things were so disgusting, Lu Ping frowned, the divination classroom seemed more comfortable than here.
At this moment, Dolores Umbridge's voice suddenly sounded again.
"Good evening, Professor Luping, what can I do for you?"
Lu Ping withdrew his gaze and looked at the place where the sound came from.
He didn't notice Umbridge at first because she was wearing a sweet pink printed robe, and the color blended in with the tablecloth on the desk behind her, making it almost indistinguishable.
"Good evening, Professor Umbridge."
Lu Ping nodded politely and said calmly.
"I remember we should have mentioned before that there are some issues I would like to have a serious discussion with you about the teaching methods in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. After all, the new semester at Hogwarts has started for more than a month."
"Okay, please sit down and talk first..."
A formulaic smile appeared on Umbridge's pale, droopy face, and she pointed to the straight-backed chair next to her.
This is a hardwood chair that looks beautifully made without any fabric or cushion decoration.
Whether in Hogwarts or the Ministry of Magic, she has such a chair in her office. The cold, hard chair, and the deliberately uncomfortable structure can save her a lot of energy in chasing away guests.
.
"Well," Lupine said in a deep voice without moving, looking at the witch with a fake smile on his face seriously.
"Professor Umbridge, well - let me put it bluntly, I hope you can change your current teaching methods, or let me directly formulate lesson plans - because in my opinion, your previous teaching methods are not good enough.
A way for students to learn the knowledge they should master in this course——"
