[HP] Five Poisons

In the days that followed, Umbridge, with Fudge as the background, rigidly implemented a high-pressure policy in Hogwarts. The various education orders she issued were densely hung on a wall.

Under this kind of power politics, the study group established by Harry has new members joining almost every day, and the current number of participants has far exceeded his expectations.

He bit the bullet and went into battle, acting as a temporary professor, explaining and guiding all kinds of fighting skills with his own experience.

"...The real battlefield is not like in school. In school, if you make a mistake, you can start over the next day. But on the battlefield, when you brush shoulders with death, or watch people die around you, you will not Wondering what that feels like…”

In the huge room, apart from the sound of breathing, there was only Harry's calm confession.

"The Stunning Spell is one of the most useful spells. It is a necessary spell for wizards in battle. Come on, let's try it now, Ron..."

……

After today's practice was over and everyone had left, the three of Harry and the others collapsed on the nearest bench exhausted, facing the roof.

The Room of Requirement, which was bustling just now, is completely silent now, with only three heavy breathing sounds that don't use the same frequency.

They looked at each other's distressed companions around them, and they didn't know who started it first, so they just laughed together, and the clear and cheerful laughter dispelled the worries and anxieties of the past few days.

Hermione leaned crookedly on the armrest, her tone was the most relaxed she had been in these days, "Today's progress is good, Professor Potter~"

"Oh don't... Hermione..." Harry, whose body was twisted into a strange angle, immediately begged for mercy, "Please forgive me...you don't even know how nervous I was."

"What are you afraid of!" Ron's upper body and lower body were resting on two different benches, and his entire waist was in the air. Although it was uncomfortable to hang like this, he was not going to get up and change positions. Merlin, he simply I'm going to get tired and get down! "Didn't you see that they look at you with little stars in their eyes?" He coughed, pinched his throat, and imitated the tone of a girl's voice, "Oh~Professor Potter~you are simply amazing!~"

Baptized by the noise, Harry moaned weakly, "Shut up, Ron."

Ron suddenly laughed strangely, "Are you shy? Harry! Hahaha!"

Harry buried himself face down in the chair, deciding to ignore Ron.

"Stunning Curse, Disarming Curse..." Hermione recalled the schedule arranged by Harry, and felt that it was not strong enough, so she suggested, "Should we arrange some more practical exercises?"

Harry dug his face out when he heard the words, and said in horror, "You don't want me to bring so many people to the mysterious man's lair, do you?!"

"..." Such an IQ, how did they become friends at that time.Hermione looked =L=. "I just don't think there is any sense of crisis in this kind of practice. They may already have the idea of ​​questioning the Ministry of Magic, but, to be honest, I don't think they have enough awareness of war."

Harry was stunned for a moment, and Hermione immediately added, "Of course, I didn't either...Compared to what you've been through, we're almost far behind, Harry."

"...I wanted to set up this group, but I didn't expect them to do anything." Harry lowered his eyes, and the words he said were lost in the air, "It's just that I don't think they can't even protect themselves... ..."

Unable to hold on to the feeling of being suspended in the air, Ron, whose body had already started to slide, tried to stabilize his figure while retorting to his good brother, "Don't underestimate them, although they may be like what Hermione said, but in your When encountering troubles, not everyone will choose to stand by and watch! Don't look like a saint! There are some things, you should find more people to carry them together, you fool!"

Hermione gave Ron a rare look of approval, nodded and said, "That's right, Harry, don't always think that this is your business alone, as long as we are still in the wizarding world, it will be with everyone here. It’s all irrelevant.”

Harry stared blankly at the two companions, his eyes flashed with emotion. They have been by his side all this time...

"...However, it's not easy to deal with such things in actual combat. Let's not mention anything else, where is the opponent? You can't really find a few Death Eaters, right? Rather, if someone is really injured by then. Let alone Umbridge, their parents won't let me go."

Hermione frowned, and it was true.

Ron, who was already in the shape of a ︶, blushed, hummed and tossed himself back to the straight line, grabbed the bench and gasped for breath, and finally he could talk properly. "I said, you guys are thinking too complicated... Hermione, what kind of actual combat do you want to do, don't you just dislike their low level... Then just find two better training partners."

The other two were stunned for a moment, which made sense. The question is, who should I ask to be the training partner?

"The professor is definitely dead, maybe, we might find a powerful senior..." Hermione pondered for a moment, and then there was a candidate, "Harry, how about finding Digory?"

If it was Digory, Harry thought about it, and felt that he was completely competent at the opponent's level, and Digory had also witnessed the resurrection of the mysterious man with his own eyes, so he was really the most suitable candidate.

Ron muttered, "He's in the seventh grade this year, so he probably has a lot of things to do, such as employment issues after graduation."

Harry was speechless for a moment, but forgot about it.

"As a sparring partner, he doesn't need to come here every day. After we get familiar with a spell, we can just ask him to come over once or twice." Hermione analyzed the situation rationally, "And I heard that there are already several job invitations. The letter has been sent to him. He is the prefect of Hufflepuff and the champion of the Triwizard Tournament. As you know, many places will rush for such an outstanding graduate. I think he probably already has made up his own mind."

The two boys nodded after hearing the words, which made sense.

Because when it comes to Hufflepuff, you can't help but think of another person.

Ron turned his head and asked Harry, "What has Chi Mo been up to lately? It feels like I haven't seen him for a long time."

"He seems to be looking for something in the restricted book area." The last time we met was two days ago, Chi Mo hurriedly took several books of astonishing thickness from the restricted book area - with Professor Flitwick's signature, the restricted book area and The ordinary area is no different to Chi Mo.

"Banned books?" Hermione asked strangely, "What is Chi Mo looking for?"

Harry shook his head, "I don't know..." Chi Mo helped him solve his troubles every time, but he never told him what happened to him...

Chi Mo's eyes fell on the opened page, and he pressed his temple in frustration.

It's no wonder that he never thought about it. Although the theory of curses has existed since ancient times, it is only a fabrication after all. It has never been heard that anyone was actually cursed to death.

But I never thought that in the magic world, there is such a thing as a curse.

The people here view the curse as an existence more evil than black magic, but they are no strangers to this existence itself.

No wonder Snape asked him that day, he took it for granted.

However, now that you know where the problem lies, it is always better than doing futile work before.

Although I don't know what kind of curse is in Regulus, but... Chi Mo stared at a certain paragraph of text and narrowed his eyes. Isn't there another one?

After the curfew, Chi Mo, who had been a good baby for a long time, found out the night parade hairstyle that had been useless for a long time, and slipped out of the dormitory.

The largest scale on the red mermaid's tail.

It is a well-known fact that there are mermaids in the Black Lake. Although I don't know if there are red ones, but since there are mermaids, we can always find out the news.

Since Umbridge came to Hogwarts, even the portraits in the castle have been quieter. Chi Mo walked all the way, but he didn't see a portrait talking, and they all nestled in their frames, or Sleep, or stare blankly with your eyes open.

While Dumbledore seems to be busy with Horcruxes, he is not at school very much during this time, which also gives Umbridge a lot of leeway to transform Hogwarts as she wishes.

"Da da--"

The unique echo of high heels sounded in the deserted corridor in the middle of the night.

Chi Mo dodged sideways behind a piece of armor, squinting his eyes to see Umbridge and Filch walking together from a distance.

"...a lot of obedience...bad student...discipline...credit..."

The distance is a bit far, Chi Mo can only vaguely hear a little bit, but from this word, it is not difficult to guess what Filch means.

Presumably he was flattering, Chi Mo curled his lips and waited for their movement to disappear at a corner in front before coming out.

This woman is very energetic, and she is still wandering around the castle with interest at such a late hour. It seems that Dumbledore is not here, and her life here is very happy.

……

The black paste under the moonlight glowed with a silvery light. A gust of wind blew up pieces of silver scales and swayed away.

Chi Mo took off his coat, put a shrinking spell into his bag, and jumped into the lake. Circles of water rippled, and after a while, the lake returned to its original calm.

After Chi Mo went into the water, while looking for the trace of the mermaid, he drove away some people who stood in the way.

The area of ​​the Black Lake is not small, Chi Mo thought for a while, released the two spirit snakes, changed them back to their original size, and asked the two pets to help them find fish.

It has to be said that Chi Mo was lucky. When he swam through a large piece of algae, he saw a sharp triangular fork in front of him.

Heidi looked at Chi Mo who blatantly broke into her territory with a bad expression, and said viciously, "Human! Go back to the shore! Or I will kill you!"

It's really hot at night.

Chi Mo pushed away the triangular fork in front of him with one finger indifferently.

Unexpectedly, Heidi, who didn't expect the other party to have such strength with one finger, stabbed with another fork in disbelief.

Chi Mo reluctantly removed the murder weapon again. He felt that the mermaid's temper was not very good. He was about to speak when he suddenly remembered that he was underwater. talk.

"Don't be impulsive, ma'am, I just want to see what a mermaid looks like."
