0273 The finishing touch

"...Mr. Fudge, in view of the serious aging of some Hogwarts facilities, a Ministry of Magic staff member was injured by a falling candlestick and fell into coma. In order to ensure the safety of students and avoid the recurrence of such incidents, we are applying for special funds of 20,000."

Galleons, used to repair aging facilities..."

After reciting the application attached to the letter, Anishi picked up Lin Lu and took a big sip.

Very cool.

Dumbledore and McGonagall had strange expressions on their faces. Their mouths were pursed, but their eyes were crooked. It was hard to tell whether they were angry or smiling.

Especially McGonagall, a student who has been reckless since she was a child, but after two years as a professor, her temperament seems to be much calmer, and she is happy about this. Who would have thought that this matter would be done today...

Forgive me, she is just a transfiguration professor and does not have the vocabulary reserve of a Chinese teacher. I really don’t know how to describe it.

But if I just talk about my mood, besides being surprised, I’m also...

Very cool.

She had never thought that quarreling with the Ministry of Magic could lead to such an operation.

After calming down a little, the witch's face was full of smiles.

What an excellent boy.

"By the way, where is Umbridge?"

After feeling secretly happy for a while, Mag remembered the initiator.

Recently, she has vaguely touched the threshold of a great wizard and has been in a state of semi-reclusion. Otherwise, she would not leave the troublesome matter of quarreling with the Ministry of Magic to Aini, and naturally she would not care about other things.

"I don't know. Umbridge woke up very early, but she refused to leave. Instead, she wanted to accuse Hogwarts of being injured. No matter how I explained, she refused to believe that the aging facilities caused all this."
Seeing Aini's serious face talking about something irrelevant, the expressions of the two elders opposite him became weird again.

Believe it? Unless your brain is filled with water, you still have to drink bubbling soda water. Normal saline water has no effect.

"Umbridge said that the castle would have magic power to maintain and it would not age. She kicked the wall to prove that she was right, so I sent another letter to Minister Fudge, which contained a bill for repairing the wall."
p>

The expressions of Dumbledore and McGonagall became more and more exciting. Has Umbridge offended Ernie before?

"Then what? How is Umbridge?"

"The wall collapsed and broke her leg. This time she was willing to believe that the facilities at Hogwarts were indeed aging, and then she ran faster than when she was not injured. I don't know where she went."

Ani's tone was slightly regretful, as if she was a little concerned about Umbridge running too fast.

He left a Jerry on the chandelier, but unfortunately he never took the chance.

"Ah... isn't this a bit too much? After all, she is just following orders."

Although he didn't like Umbridge at all, Professor McGonagall still felt a tremor in her heart after listening to Ani's story.

"Follow orders?"

Seeing that the teacher's position was a little wavering, Aini said haha, if you were asked to go through the original trajectory again, Umbridge probably wouldn't be able to get out of Hogwarts this time.

"The last time the dementors attacked the train, it was Umbridge who led the team, and it was she who gave Fudge this bad idea. If you dare to touch my students, you must pay the price."

Aini's tone was calm, but the two people present were both human beings and could hear his hidden meaning - this matter is not over yet.

Mag's lips moved, but after all, she still didn't say any words of admonishment.

Thinking about it from another perspective, if he was following the car that day and encountered Umbridge leading the dementors to attack the students, the method might be even more violent than his.

Minerva McGonagall has never been a good-tempered person.

After listening to these words, Dumbledore also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Ani's method of dealing with Umbridge was indeed a bit harsh, but his starting point was for the students, so it didn't matter.

Hogwarts is not something that can be manipulated by anyone. Over the millennia, there have been many principals who were more protective than Ani, and during the tenure of these people, it was also the period when British wizards were most united.

From Dumbledore's point of view, as long as he could stand upright in the face of big rights and wrongs, he was, after all, an informal person.

After saying this, Umbridge's name never appeared in the subsequent conversation. She was just a clown, not worthy of much attention.

But there is one thing to say, although Umbridge looks miserable this time, in fact, there is not much loss. There is no need to go to St. Mungo's for wounds that do not involve magical infection. A bottle of magic potion can be solved.<

/p>

On the contrary, when Fudge knew that she had toughened Dumbledore, he could get substantial benefits.

Why not raise a dog that can bite, has no foundation, eats little, is easy to use, and even easier to throw away and take the blame for?

What's more, Umbridge has at least completed half of this mission. Although she didn't take the opportunity to intervene in the internal affairs of Hogwarts, she at least showed Fudge's attitude and separated him from Dumbledore's shadow.

Putting aside their intrigues with the Ministry of Magic, the three of them talked about transfiguration. They were all transfiguration masters, so it was easy to find common topics in this regard.

There is also a gap between masters and masters. Dumbledore was McGonagall's transfiguration professor when she was in school. Whether it was the overall level of magic or the number of years he had been immersed in transfiguration, the old man had an absolute advantage.

From the very beginning, Minerva was the one to be taught.

But Ani is different. A few years ago, it was McGonagall who helped him embark on the path of transfiguration, and now Ani has been promoted to the Grand Wizard. During the discussion, he talked more with Dumbledore, while McGonagall said less.

Even sometimes the witch can't keep up with the other two's thoughts.

Although she understood Aini's talent and knew that sooner or later this disciple would surpass her, when that day came, the witch was still relieved and a little disappointed.

After looking at Ernie and then at Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, who had always been loyal to his duties, secretly made up his mind.

"Albus, I would like to take some time off."

The conversation between the two stopped abruptly, and Dumbledore blinked, as if he didn't hear the witch's request clearly.

Aini was also shocked. He had known Professor McGonagall since he was a child, and he had never heard of her asking for leave.

"I feel like I'm about to cross that barrier, and I want to find a clean place to study for a while."

The witch glanced at the two of them angrily. She had never asked for leave, but that didn't mean she wouldn't ask for leave. Is she so surprised?

Although the teacher gave him a dirty look, Aini showed a happy smile on his face.

Professor McGonagall is incredibly talented, and she definitely has the potential to become a great wizard.

However, due to changes in life in her early years, she did not long for strength, and spent much more time on teaching than improving herself over the years.

Magic is not a pursuit for her, but a hobby.

Teachers can also verify what they have learned in the process, and outstanding disciples like Aini can bring her more additional benefits. Many of the other party's ideas make this transformation master feel bright.

.

In addition, Aini shared part of the teaching tasks two years ago, so Mag can devote more time to hobbies, and magic progresses much faster than before.

Now he is about to break through that barrier and become the third direct line wizard of Hogwarts.

All that's missing is a finishing touch.
