Magical Studies at Hogwarts

"Hermione Granger? I know." Hearing the name, a young face appeared in Fudge's mind.

Of course he knew Hermione. There were not many students who applied for time-turners, and each one required Fudge's signature before being taken out of the Department of Mysteries.

In recent years, only two students have been approved, one resigned, and the remaining one was Hermione.

"It seems that she and the Ike who threw himself into the darkness..." Fudge muttered. Percy heard the sound and quickly came over and whispered in Fudge's ear, "They are a couple, Minister."

"That's it..." Fudge nodded and said, "Dolores, please call Miss Granger over. It shouldn't be allowed to cast such a vicious curse on a classmate... What do you think? Dumbledore?"

Dumbledore didn't reply. He still looked like the old god was there, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Umbridge left, and Professor McGonagall took advantage of this brief moment to pull Marietta aside, gave her a bottle of pain-relieving potion, and removed the curse from her.It was very troublesome, even she had to put in a lot of effort.

It didn't take long for Umbridge to return, and Hermione followed behind her without any sign of panic.

"Okay, we've been delayed for some time. I think we can put the question about Miss Granger aside for now." Fudge said, winking at Umbridge.When the latter saw it, she immediately said in her sweet voice: "Yes, Minister, compared to Miss Granger's matter, Mr. Potter is more serious."

"Yes, there are so many Lores, can you please tell everyone what you know?"

"Of course." Umbridge said, "Perhaps you remember that I reported to you in October that Potter had a gathering with many classmates at the Hog's Head pub..."

"Do you have any evidence?" Professor McGonagall suddenly asked.

"We have the testimony of Willy Widdershin, who was in the pub at the time and heard every word Potter said," Umbridge replied.

"I see, that's why he was exempted from prosecution for the toilet sewage backflow he caused." Professor McGonagall raised her eyebrows, "Our judicial system is really great!"

Hearing this, Harry suddenly remembered who Widdershin was. He had heard Mr. Weasley mention his name. He was a habitual criminal who used magic to tease Muggles.

Umbridge ignored Professor McGonagall's ridicule and continued: "Potter is gathering with these students to persuade them to join an illegal organization in order to learn some spells that the Ministry of Magic has deemed unsuitable for students to learn..."

"You are mistaken about something, Dolores." Dumbledore suddenly interjected. "You are completely wrong to accuse such a group of being illegal at the time. If you have not forgotten, you should know that "No .20 The promulgation of Education Order No. [-] will be after that.”

"Yes, Headmaster, you are right." Umbridge smiled, "But all gatherings after that are illegal."

"But how do you know they had a party afterwards? What evidence do you have?"

The smile on Umbridge's face became even bigger. She let out a harsh laugh, pointed at Marietta next to her and said, "Headmaster, she is the witness. Didn't you hear it just now?"

"Oh? The curse on you has been lifted? Great!" Umbridge was very happy. She pulled Marietta back from Professor McGonagall, patted her shoulders and encouraged, "Come on. , tell me, tell me everything you know, how many parties has Potter held in the past six months?"

Harry's heart sank, this time it should be really over.Inexplicably, she actually complained to Professor McGonagall that she shouldn't have been exposed to Marietta's curse just now, so that she wouldn't have spoken out about it.

"I don't know how many times..." Marietta's voice was small, but it was enough for everyone to hear clearly, "but it must be very frequent."

"Excellent, kid!" Umbridge urged. "What else? Go on, go on."

"I..." Marietta's face suddenly turned livid, and those lines appeared again.This time there were no ugly pimples, because her face was split open, several terrifying cracks appeared, and blood spurted out.

"Oh my God!" Umbridge was startled and let out a piercing scream. There was a lot of stains on her pink coat that had not changed for thousands of years.

Fudge, who had been sitting there, was also frightened. His face was extremely ugly, and he shouted at Hermione: "Lift it! Lift it! How dare you? Lift it!"

Hermione looked very calm. She took out her wand and pointed it at Marietta. A white light flashed and Marietta's face returned to normal.But it was obvious that the experience just now frightened her, and her body could not stop shaking.

"You're so bad..." Looking at the blood stains on her clothes, Umbridge was furious. She angrily took out her wand and pointed it at Hermione, but before she could release the spell, she was hit by a red light. , the wand came out directly and fell directly into Dumbledore's hand.

Dumbledore's sudden attack startled Fudge. He jumped up from his chair and hid aside.

"What are you doing, Dumbledore!" he shouted.

"Nothing, Cornelius." Dumbledore put Umbridge's wand on the table. "No one in my school can harm my student, no matter what she did."

"You..." Fudge was furious, snorted and sat back on the chair, shouting to Umbridge, "Go on, Dolores, go on! Evidence!"

"Okay...Okay, Minister..." Umbridge responded tremblingly, glanced at the expressionless Dumbledore, took out a piece of parchment from her pocket and handed it to Fudge, "Minister, this is The list of Potter's party is pinned to their secret base."

When Harry saw the parchment, he knew he was doomed. He really didn't expect Marietta to steal this.

Sure enough, after seeing the words on the parchment, Fudge was extremely happy.

"Look what they named themselves? Dumbledore's Army?" Fudge stared at Dumbledore, "I thought..."

"You thought you could fire Potter, but you didn't expect to find a better one?" Dumbledore pushed up his glasses and smiled, "Yes, this is my army, organized by me."

"You can arrest me."

"Weasley!" Fudge shouted, looking extremely happy, "Have you written it all down? His testimony, his confession, his own admission of building an army to overthrow me!"

"Yes, I've written it all down, sir." Percy replied diligently, with a large piece of text already written on the parchment in his hand.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, Dolores, have you thought of it? I didn't expect it!" Fudge looked at the content on Percy's parchment, with a bright smile on his face, and then turned to Dumbledore Said, "You will be escorted to the Ministry of Magic for trial, and then I will send you to Azkaban."

"I think you made a mistake, Cornelius." Dumbledore's eyes were fixed on Fudge, and his tone was unhurried, "You don't really think that Azkaban can imprison me, do you? "

"Besides, what makes you think that I will be captured without mercy?"
