Nine hundred and eighty-one chapters default and shake people
Remus Lupine knew early on that Umbridge was quite a nasty guy.
This senior official of the Ministry of Magic has always been a pioneer in the Ministry of Magic's fight against "half-humans and half-beasts" and "dangerous animals". Since she was promoted to Senior Undersecretary of the Ministry of Magic, Umbridge has made relevant remarks in public more than once.
For example, driving the mermaids together and putting up signs.
Just last week, Umbridge even led the secret attack and arrest operation against the werewolf community.
With the promulgation of the "Werewolf Restriction Act", werewolves have almost no legal means of making a living in the magical world.
Although Professor Dumbledore has been silently supporting and safeguarding the rights of werewolves, after all, he is just the principal of a magic school.
Dumbledore tried every means to allow Lupine to receive equal access to magical education, and offered Lupine a teaching position against all objections. Whether it was his personal stance or his actions, it can be said that there was nothing that could make people complain or find fault.
place.
Sadly, there are at least nearly two hundred werewolves in the UK, and that doesn't take into account their respective family members.
Over the centuries, hundreds of outstanding wizards have been born in the wizarding world. There are many great wizards such as Newt Scamander and Albus Dumbledore who are just, compassionate, and full of wisdom, but no one has ever found them.
to the proper path to solving the werewolf problem.
The arrests made some time ago are undoubtedly a bad sign: the Ministry of Magic is about to lose its patience.
"I read about your astounding exploits last week from the newspapers, Professor Umbridge."
Professor Lupine said gently, not paying attention to the pride and provocation in Umbridge's tone, and his tone was calm.
"It seems that you have a lot of unique insights in the practical field of Defense Against the Dark Arts. I have been waiting for you to resubmit the revised Defense Against the Dark Arts syllabus. After all, in the O.W.Ls assessment score, the magic spell
The proportion of practical points is quite heavy.”
"Professor Lupin, I use the teaching methods approved by the Ministry of Magic. I don't think there is any need to revise..."
Umbridge's eyes turned cold. She didn't expect that this down-and-out werewolf professor would actually make things difficult for her.
Obviously, judging from Professor Lupine's meaning, if she fails to provide a satisfactory Defense Against the Dark Arts syllabus, then as the current head professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, Lu Ping intends to use his functions to
Suspended her future course schedule indefinitely.
The senior reviewer's own course failed to pass the school review, which is a bigger scandal than her failure to detect problems during the review.
"Oh, yes, but I remember you once expressed such a point in class"
Professor Lupine first smiled and nodded at Hermione, Elena and others, indicating that they could hand out homework first.
Immediately afterwards, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor recalled the advice of a certain castle administrator and continued clearly.
"You said, 'Letting students pass the exam is the purpose of the school.' But according to the current O.W.Ls and N.E.W.Ts exams in the Defense Against the Dark Arts course, pure theoretical knowledge is not enough for students to achieve better results.
The most important thing is that the textbooks you chose do not seem to be included in the question range of these certificate exams... This is a very bad thing, time is very precious, right?"
"Huh? So, you want to say"
"Unless the Ministry of Magic releases the latest exam syllabus changes, your previous teaching plan will not pass my review."
Remus Lupine smiled slightly, looked at the senior investigator from the Ministry of Magic and said gently.
"In accordance with the "21st Education Order" passed some time ago, the subject heads of Hogwarts have the right to reasonably regulate the overall content of the curriculum. Professor Umbridge, an excellent anti-dark magic expert like you,
I believe that with your ability you will be able to return to teaching soon."
Professor Lupine looked calmly at Umbridge, whose expression began to turn ferocious, without a trace of fear or regret in his eyes.
Last weekend night, when he just left the principal's office, he happened to meet Professor Apokalis walking from the other end of the corridor.
To Remus Lupine's surprise, this old man who usually didn't communicate much with "young people" like them suddenly grabbed him that day and meaningfully gave him some "advice from the elders".
The words still echo in his mind from time to time.
"Well, Professor Lupine, let me give you some advice."
The old wizard said this, with profound wisdom shining in his cloudy eyes.
"Never forget who you are, because the world will never forget. You have to turn resistance into help, so that you have no weaknesses. If you are smart enough, use your weaknesses to arm yourself so that no one can use them to
It’s hurting you and those around you.”
With Professor Apokalis's advice, Lupine finally figured it out.
Judging from the current situation, the confrontation between Umbridge and the werewolves cannot be eased in the short term.
The previous response of blindly giving in and forbearing could not satisfy Professor Umbridge and stop taking the initiative.
Unless Lupine is sent to Azkaban with his own hands, Umbridge's hostility towards him will never disappear. Every step he gives in will make the other party more unscrupulous and allow him to cause trouble in the Hogwarts classroom. Then
This is truly irresponsible.
"I understand. It seems that you have studied the "Education Order" and the Hogwarts School Rules very carefully."
Professor Umbridge said softly, took a deep breath, took out her writing pad and wrote a few words.
Hogwarts would not sit back and let her investigate other professors in the school, and Dumbledore would definitely set some restrictions.
It was obvious that the half-man, half-beast whom Dumbledore had hired against all odds was the method used to deal with her. Judging from Professor Lupine's different response methods and wording, he most likely learned from Albus Dumbledore.
Lido received certain promises and instructions.
As they got along with each other in the past two years, the officials of the Ministry of Magic clearly felt that Dumbledore was politically adept and sophisticated.
As the most knowledgeable, wise, and powerful wizard in the wizarding world today, he occasionally shows inhumanity and rigidity just because he feels there is no need to take into account their feelings, but this does not mean that Dumbledore does not understand political code words, politics
means.
The other party... came prepared!
Dolores Umbridge crossed out her planned review of Professor Flitwick on her writing pad.
After staying in the Ministry of Magic for so many years, she can naturally think of the following methods. The senior examiner's own course cannot pass the review. This alone can invalidate all her reports and investigation results. This is a conspiracy to drain salary from the bottom of the cauldron and delay the review.
The longer it takes, the worse it will be for her.
"Please rest assured, Professor Lupin, I will carefully revise the syllabus... and return to Hogwarts' Defense Against the Dark Arts class as soon as possible."
Professor Umbridge still had the same kind smile on her face, and her eyebrows were raised.
"Compared with the practice in the field of defensive spells, I think students' theoretical knowledge about dark creatures is still lacking. Of course, I will also add some spell teaching appropriately. As for the review ability of the subject leader, this is also advanced
One of the duties of the investigating officer.”
There was a moment of silence. Professor Luping's expression remained unchanged.
"Of course," he said softly, pointing to a row of empty seats in the corner at the back of the classroom. "Okay, we are about to start class. You can find a seat at the back...as a spectator. After all, according to the
"Education Order No. 22" stipulates that when the senior investigator reviews the school's curriculum, he should notify the professor in writing of the date and time in advance. I don't want you to violate the rules because of me."
After saying that, Professor Lupine ignored Umbridge and turned to look at the students in the classroom who were finishing their melons.
"Now please take out "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide" and turn to page 94..."
Professor Umbridge stood there stunned for a few seconds, her chest heaving violently.
Hermione quietly turned her head and glanced at Elena, looking a little worried.
She knew that Professor Umbridge was the thorn in the side sent to Hogwarts by the Ministry of Magic. Although Professor Lupin’s unbridled criticism sounded very depressing, on the other hand, Umbridge, as a senior investigator,
The rights of an official were extraordinary, and she was a little worried that Professor Lu Ping would be retaliated against.
However, with Professor Lu Ping's lively and interesting course content, she quickly put aside these unnecessary worries.
"A very beautiful repel spell, five points for Gryffindor."
Professor Lupine shouted, nodding approvingly towards Harry, who had performed well in the practice of magic.
"Then, next, Miss Granger. The requirements are still the same. Stand five meters away and hit the moving cushions next to the podium in sequence."
When Hermione once again lost to Harry in the practical operation of Defense Against the Dark Arts, she had always been weak in this aspect. Whether it was last year's spell confrontation or rapid movement and casting of spells, these more sports-oriented assessment content she
It was rare to get high marks. Her worries about Professor Lupin instantly disappeared. She had better worry about her final exam of Defense Against Darkness this semester...
During this period, Professor Umbridge was unexpectedly quiet.
She had been sitting in the corner of the classroom, writing non-stop on the notebook, without even asking basic inspection questions.
After the bell rang, Umbridge was the first to walk out of the classroom, seemingly regaining her confidence.
…………
As Elena had guessed over lunch, Umbridge wouldn't miss the rebranded Magizoology.
When "Mina", "Nana", "Nini" and other little girls gathered together, arrived at the forest farm next to the Forbidden Forest, and walked along the grass to their first period of Magical Animals at Hogwarts, Wu
Mrich's figure appeared in their field of vision again.
When they arrived at the forest farm, they happened to see Umbridge standing next to Professor Bourne with a smile and holding her writing board, humming a tune.
"I heard that you plan to retire next year, right?"
Elena heard Umbridge ask. At this time, they came to the temporary wooden fence. A dozen brown-red horse-faced creatures were curled up on the hay in the center of the fence, chewing the young grass that was dragged over.
, while looking at more and more little wizards around him with fear.
"To be more precise, I will retire after this semester."
Professor Kettle Byrne said, looking at the creatures in the fence with a gentle expression.
"There are enough old guys in Hogwarts, and I have to give some opportunities to the young people. So I plan to give myself a long vacation in the remaining time, so that I can have more time to spend time with my little naughty friends.
Stay together."
"Oh, is it"
Umbridge shrugged noncommittally and glanced at the old Care of Magical Creatures professor.
There is no doubt that Professor Kettle Byrne is a very passionate and even somewhat reckless person.
He loves the dangerous magical animals he studies and cares for so much that not only does he often hurt himself, but sometimes he may even hurt other people.
The most intuitive result is that Professor Kettle Byrne now only has one arm and half a leg left.
Due to problems related to the domestication and research of magical animals, he set a record of no less than 62 academic probations during his teaching period.
This record is still the highest value among Hogwarts professors, which is roughly six times that of the second highest value.
Therefore, at the very beginning, Umbridge originally planned to use the old professor to establish her power.
However, after learning about Professor Kettle Burn's retirement plan, Umbridge immediately changed her mind.
Other subjects at Hogwarts are too difficult to break, and Dumbledore has been running this school for nearly a hundred years.
However, if there is an opportunity to place another new professor in the school who is close to the Ministry of Magic, it will undoubtedly greatly relieve her future pressure in the school.
"Well," Professor Umbridge lowered her voice, but Elena could still hear her clearly.
"So, this course will have to be taken over by a new professor in the future? As a senior professor of the Care of Magical Creatures course, your opinions in this regard are obviously very important."
Umbridge said softly, considering her tone.
"I mean, you know, the Ministry of Magic's Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures has many excellent wizards. If you can, can you recommend them?"
Hmm? Is the big pink toad ready to shake people?
Elena raised her eyebrows slightly, pretending to be casual and took a few steps closer to Umbridge and Professor Byrne.
"I'm afraid not," Kettle Byrne said in a relaxed tone. "As far as I know, Professor Dumbledore seems to have selected candidates in advance, but there seems to be some scheduling issues now. Of course, we still have
Professor Graplan, if there is indeed a time conflict in the end, she promises to help cover the class for a period of time."
"Have you searched for a new professor in advance?"
The smile on Umbridge's face gradually disappeared, she frowned, and asked softly curiously, "Who?"
"Oh, he's a nice young man. Recently, he comes here as a temporary assistant to help whenever he has free time. Here, he is here..."
Professor Byrne said, waving behind Professor Umbridge.
