【HP】I don’t want to fall in love, I just want to mess around

"So, you did it on purpose?"

On Sunday, Draco waited for Esther outside Umbridge's office.

He grabbed Esther's wrist with an anxious look and whispered: "You deliberately showed off your flaws and made Umbridge suspicious of what you were going to do? At least tell me, so that I can help you no matter what."

Esther patted his shoulder comfortingly and said softly: "I'm going to touch her later, you just need to be a spectator."

As she spoke, she quickly scanned the surroundings. When she saw a figure walking in the distance, she immediately distanced herself from him: "If possible, you can let more people pay attention to the situation here. The more people there are, the more people will be affected later." The more people pay attention to it.”

Draco frowned deeply and whispered, "Be safe, and use the double-sided mirror to notify me if anything goes wrong."

"After notifying you, will you rush into Umbridge's office to save me?" Esther looked at him with a smile and asked.

"I will rush into Umbridge's office and tell her that I saw Potter breaking school rules." Draco knew that Esther didn't want her to worry, so he managed to say a half-joking sentence, but there was not much on his face. smile.

He didn't understand why Esther did this.

He also knew that she had many secrets that she had not told him.

Just like when she was attacked last semester, it was later revealed that it was Crouch Jr. who disguised himself as Moody and sneaked into the school. Esther accidentally discovered his secret and was used by him to forget it.

This was on the surface, but apart from that, he was sure there were other things she was hiding.

Professor Snape and Dumbledore must know these things.

In addition, there is also...the resurrection of the mysterious man.

He had been unwilling to think about this, and even hoped that everything was just a lie made up by Potter after he was frightened out of his wits during the Triwizard Tournament.

But he knew otherwise.

Even if his parents hid it from him and Esther didn't tell him, he could still feel the turmoil hidden under the peaceful life.

He didn't know what to do. He could only ignore these things and pretend to live life as usual.

He had already vaguely sensed that Esther's family should be more supportive of Dumbledore. And his parents will undoubtedly follow the mysterious man.

He was panicking inside, and when he thought of this, he forced himself not to continue thinking about it.

Esther saw his expression changing unpredictably and didn't know what he was thinking. She just thought he was worried about his safety.

"Don't worry, I won't risk my own safety. If I dare to do this, I must have my own plan." Esther continued to comfort him.

Draco came back to his senses, hid all his emotions, and showed his usual relaxed expression: "I hope you will do what you say, otherwise I will be angry."

Esther smiled at him.

Before she could say a few more words, she and Draco separated and walked to Umbridge's office alone.

She knocked on the door, and soon Umbridge's annoying voice came from inside: "Please come in."

Esther pushed open the door and entered.

She has been to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office many times. Because the teacher changes every year, the style is different every year. But it has never been like this.

At first glance, the whole room is filled with pink.

The walls turned into a highly saturated pink color, and there were many pictures of cats hanging on them. At first glance, they looked messy and eye-sore.

"Sit down, I'm glad you came on time."

Umbridge, also wearing pink wizard robes, gave Esther a sly expression.

Esther sat down calmly, and Umbridge acted very kindly and said without doubt: "Let's have a cup of tea first."

She said, pointing to the teacup filled with tea in front of Esther.

Esther held it up obediently, and instead of drinking it immediately asked her: "Professor, is there any sugar in it?"

Perhaps thinking of what was about to happen to me, Umbridge nodded patiently: "Of course."

"Forget it, I don't like drinking tea with sugar."

Esther deliberately put down her teacup.

She could tell with her toes that there must be veritaserum in this cup of tea.

Fortunately, she had known this would happen and asked Professor Snape for the antidote to Veritaserum in advance.

Umbridge's expression did not change: "Maybe you can give it a try. There's not much sugar in it."

"Forget it, I have mysophobia and I don't want to use other people's cups."

Umbridge's expression twisted, and her tone became dangerous: "Do you think I don't like to be clean? If you think so, I will be very sad. I just want you to have a cup of tea. You are not willing to accept my kindness. do you accept?"

As she spoke, she picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip.

Also kind.

Do you have this thing?

Esther complained silently, then pretended to be embarrassed and raised the tea cup again, took a careful sip, and then immediately put down the tea cup, looking like she was thinking silently: "To be honest, you don't have good taste. This tea is not good." It was said that too much sugar was added to cover up the original fragrance, and the technique was also very problematic.”

Umbridge's smile didn't reach her eyes, and she laughed dryly before continuing: "It seems that Miss Mayne has quite a lot of knowledge about tea. Why don't you take a few more sips and taste it to see if I have any questions?"

The words were polite, but the look in his eyes seemed to give her a Cruciatus Curse.

Esther just wanted to drink a few more sips to ensure that she would be able to tell the truth later.

Of course she will do what she wants, but before that she has to say a few words to poke her heart: "Of course you can, but Professor, I still want to remind you, don't eat so many sweets when you get older, it's not good for your health."

Umbridge was so angry that her hand holding the tea cup was shaking.

Esther took another sip and didn't want to drink anymore.

Umbridge no longer forced herself, suppressed all her anger, and tried her best to pretend to be a good teacher and asked, "Do you think the fourth grade courses are too onerous?"

She won't ask the questions she wants right away, but will chat with you first. When you relax, the effect of the truth serum will begin to show.

Esther said: "It's okay."

"So which class do you think is the most stressful?"

"Defense Against the Dark Arts class."

"...Why?" Umbridge pretended to be hurt: "I think my classes are already very easy, and I never give any homework."

"Because you standing here is stressful enough." Esther said honestly.

"Well, that's a sad answer." Umbridge thought the Veritaserum was starting to take effect.

She changed the topic and asked: "Then please tell me truthfully, what is your quill for?"

Esther pursed her lips and smiled: "Of course it's for writing."

"So, those false reports about me were written by you?"

She said through gritted teeth, especially emphasizing the word "untrue".

Esther answered her: "I didn't write it. Who would be willing to gossip about your disgusting life?"

The smile on Umbridge's face disappeared instantly. She had a sullen face and said in a bad tone: "You will be punished if you disrespect the teacher. I thought you were a good student, but now it seems you have a big problem."

Esther smiled at her nonchalantly: "I haven't seen you respect other students, so why should we respect you? Are you a pink toad?"
