"Hey, listen to this - Dolores Umbridge has been appointed as Senior Inquisitor with authority to investigate all the teachers on the job. They're in trouble, aren't they?" Draco shook the Daily Prophet, taunting looked over at Gryffindor.

Most of the Slytherins didn't respond. For them, whoever manages the school means that there are some differences in the way. They just need to adapt. It's not like Gryffindor's troubles are already unbearable. .They are more concerned with the things at hand, such as——

Pan Xi held Rong Jiu's arm tightly: "What did that woman stop you from saying!"

"Just a little chore." Rong Jiu felt his head was as big as a bucket.Why did she have to deal with Pansy? "She wants to chase Harry Potter, but she heard from somewhere that I have a good relationship with him, so she asked me about him."

"Oh?" Pansy let go of her hand slowly, "It sounds like her eyesight is getting worse?"

Without waiting for Rong Jiu to ridicule, she continued: "But it's none of my business, as long as I don't stare at my Draco... Huh, you have to help her catch Potter, or if she gets up again one day What should I do if I get jealous?"

"I beg you, Pan Xi, can you have some confidence in yourself?" Rong Jiu was about to cry.Can you stop looking for so many things for me?

In the arithmetic and divination class in the morning, they accidentally found Umbridge sitting there, apparently about to perform his duties as a senior investigator, wandering around the classroom twice from time to time, asking Professor Victor and the students in a low voice. some problems.Although this is very annoying, the result is still good. Everyone is full of praise for Victor. Rong Jiu sneaked a glance at Umbridge's notepad, and it is estimated that she will not disturb his class again, because This teacher is almost perfect.

"Suddenly I want to see her check the professor's class." Rong Jiu said in a low voice, "If she dares to walk around like this, will the professor miss her food?"

"You're not worried about your professor?" Draco glanced at her, emphasizing the "your".

Rong Jiu blinked: "If Uncle Lucius wanted to continue his potion business, he wouldn't watch the professor have an accident."

"Girls are outgoing." Draco sighed.

But the potion class in the afternoon did not have one more guest as Rong Jiu wished.Moonstone's paper came out with a big "O" on top.

"This grade I'll give you is what you'll get if you turn in something like that in your OWLs," Snape sneered, walking briskly among the class to hand back homework to them , "This should give you a clear idea of ​​what to expect on the exam."

He walked to the front of the classroom and turned to face his classmates.

"The general level of homework this time was abysmal. If it were an exam, most of you would not pass it. I hope, in this week's paper on various types of antidotes, you will put a little more effort into it, Or I'd have to put some of those stupid 'D's in detention."

He was full of sneers.Draco was always very sharp at such times, turned his head to look at the Gryffindors behind, and taunted in a clear voice: "Anyone else got a 'D'? Ha!"

"However, it is gratifying that there are still some good-quality assignments." Snape changed his tone, lowered his eyes, and let his eyes fall on the person under his nose, "even with the most inhuman standards of the OWLs exam Let’s see, they are all perfect. If you are still a little self-motivated, you can take a look at Jiu’s thesis, and then compare what you have written... Slythering is very good.”

There was a sudden murmur of discussion from below, which was extremely rare in Snape's class.Most people are for this terrible high score. After all, although Snape is a eccentric teacher, he still has his own opinions in his studies.Cruces, for example, never deducted points from Slytherin, but never got a grade higher than one (out of [-]) for a class assignment.When he said that, he meant that now that Rong Jiu is allowed to take the OWLs potion test, she can also get an O?

And a small group of people talked about such an intimate title.

"Tsk tsk tsk, 'Jiu'." Draco wore a wretched smile, "I have known the professor for so many years, and he still calls me 'Mr. Malfoy' in class."

Rong Jiu pretended not to hear, and looked uprightly at Professor Snape.Needless to say, he must be in a good mood at the moment, otherwise he wouldn't call her by her name directly; when he was in a normal mood, he would usually call her by her last name; She is "Miss Malfoy".

"Perhaps you remember what I said at the end of last term." Snape didn't bother to greet discipline at all, because no one dared to continue talking when he opened his mouth, "Potter, Weasley, come forward... yes , the middle of the first row."

Rong Jiu subconsciously wanted to stand up and make room for them, but was stopped by Snape.

"You and Mr. Malfoy are sitting here. Random test, you four. I will give you a small vial of poison, and you have to concoct their antidote in this hour or so. Remember... to test their results , yourselves."

Draco grinned suddenly, looking at Harry and Ron who were walking up with malice.

Letting the two best scorers in Slytherin Potions take the exam with these two bastards from Gryffindor is obviously humiliating them!

So when get out of class was over, Rong Jiu and Draco won ten points for Slytherin alone.And Ron and Harry, two unlucky ones, not only deducted [-] extra points from Gryffindor and won a month's confinement for themselves, but also had to walk around with rashes all over their heads and bodies.

"Until you can concoct an antidote yourselves," said Snape softly. "Hopefully it will teach your poor brains something."

Draco laughed.

For the next month or so, the situation of the Gryffindors was still very bad. Basically, except for Hermione, everyone had more or less small rashes on their bodies.And perhaps worse, Umbridge disbanded every student organization, association, team or club.

"Yeah, Umbridge kept the Slytherin Quidditch team going, I asked her about it early this morning. Hey, it's almost automatic. Let me tell you, she and my dad are very close." Well, my dad is in and out of the Ministry of Magic a lot... it's up to Gryffindor to keep going, isn't it?" Draco boasted loudly outside the classroom before a Potions class.

"I mean," he continued seeing no response from Gryffindor, "I don't think they stand a chance in terms of impact on the Ministry of Magic. According to my dad, the Ministry has been looking for reasons to get rid of them for years." Arthur Weasley... As for Potter, my dad said it was only a matter of time before the Ministry sent him to St Mungo's, where they apparently have a special ward for people whose minds have been corrupted by magic..."

Draco grimaced, his mouth was long and his eyes rolled around.It made the Slytherins laugh.

"It's not necessarily the impact on the Ministry of Magic, but that they still can't learn to know the current affairs." Theodore commented.

Rong Jiu shrugged: "I think they may have gone in the wrong direction. Courage and recklessness are obviously two different things."

While the two of them were chatting, there was a sudden commotion from Gryffindor.When Rong Jiu turned back, she found that Harry and Ron were grabbing Neville's robe, and Neville looked... wanted to beat Draco?

"What am I missing?" she asked Pansy blankly.Now that Theodore, Blaise, and Cruces had stood beside Draco, it seemed that if Neville rushed over, they would roll up their sleeves.

"I don't know, maybe he's crazy?" Pansy commented hesitantly.

Just then, the door of the basement classroom opened.

"Fight, Potter, Weasley, Longbottom?" Snape said coldly, full of sarcasm. "Ten points from Gryffindor. Let go of Longbottom, Potter, or you will be put in detention. All in the classroom."

"What's wrong with you?" Rong Jiu still didn't understand until she sat down in the seat, and asked Draco.

Draco looked angry, as if he hadn't recovered from the shock: "How would I know! He's probably crazy!"

"Everyone will notice," Snape walked to the front of the classroom, at this moment, everyone shut their mouths, not daring to make a sound, "We have a guest today."

He pointed to the dark corner, and everyone looked along, and found Umbridge sitting there, looking at everyone with a smile.

"Continue to mix the enhancer today, and you will see the mixture left over from the last class. If you mix it right, it should be ready after the weekend. The operation method is on the blackboard. Start."

While taking the materials she needed, Rong Jiu said, "If Umbridge dares to treat that... who? Professor Trelawney? If it's the same, I dare say, her name will be engraved tomorrow On the tombstone."

Pansy giggled, "You have great confidence in Professor Snape!"

"Of course, he is the best and most powerful professor in the world." Rong Jiu said without hesitation.

Apparently, Umbridge also knew that persimmons were soft, so she stayed there for the first half of the class.She didn't take any action until Rong Jiu had completed most of the progress.

"Geez, the class seems to go pretty deep," she said sweetly, "but I doubt it's advisable to teach them potions like enhancers. I think the Ministry will want to drop it from the curriculum. "

"Then what do we take to test OWLs?" Rong Jiu raised his eyebrows and mocked in a low voice, "This standard cannot be changed by the Ministry of Magic."

"Now... how long have you been teaching at Hogwarts?" The girlish voice sounded again.

"Fourteen years," said Snape.There was obvious indifference and disgust in the voice.

"Tsk, did you hear that?" Draco kicked Rong Jiu, "He's almost as old as you in teaching. Is the taste so strong?"

Rong Jiu glanced at him with obvious dislike on his face: "Looking at what boys my age look like, it's not surprising that I like him at all."

While the two were talking, the questioning over there continued.

"You apply to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts first, don't you?"

"Yes."

"But didn't apply?"

Rong Jiu pouted and said softly, "Obviously."

"Obviously," Snape replied at the same time.

Rong Jiu winked at Draco and looked at him triumphantly.

"You've applied to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts many times since you came to school, haven't you?"

"Yes." Snape's voice trailed off.Rong Jiu knew that this meant that his mood was getting worse and worse.

"Do you know why Dumbledore repeatedly rejected you?"

"I suggest you ask her." Snape's voice was almost a whisper.Rong Jiu couldn't help shrinking her neck.

"That woman must be unknown in the near future. I think Trelawney is right." Pansy whispered, "For example, a serious illness or something... If the professor doesn't move his hands and feet, my last name is Parkinson."

Rong Jiu said with a low smile, "Heroes see the same thing."

She looked at her cauldron.Now just add the last bit and you're ready for the finishing touches.Just then, she felt her vision go dark, and Umbridge walked up to her.

"Miss Malfoy, can I have a moment of your time?"

"Of course, Professor Umbridge, it's my pleasure." Rong Jiu carefully added a few drops of pomegranate juice, watching the potion turn blue, showing a satisfied smile.After adjusting the flame intensity, he raised his head and looked at Umbridge innocently.

"Well, how would you rate your Potions teacher?"

"He is the best and most responsible teacher I have ever met. I like him very much." Rong Jiu said with a smile, "At the same time, as the dean of the college, he is also a good teacher who cares about every student in every possible way."

"Oh, from the way you sound, you really like Professor Snape, don't you?" Umbridge was scribbling something in her little notebook.

"Yes." Rong Jiu replied firmly.

"Then how do you evaluate your current course progress? Will it be difficult?"

"The professor will arrange everything, I just need to follow his steps." Rong Jiu replied, "As for whether it will be difficult... What do you think?"

She stirred gently three-and-a-half times clockwise and a quarter-turn counterclockwise.The potion immediately turned into the pure and clear blue color mentioned in the book.

"Okay, I see." Umbridge nodded, turned a little further away, and began to question Cruces.

Rong Jiu let out a long breath.

"Hey, you don't look like you're answering a question, like you're swearing a confession." Pansy joked, "It's just a pity that the professor didn't hear it..."

"Perfect enhancer." At this moment, a deep voice sounded from behind the two, "Slytherin plus five points."

Pansy: "..."

Professor, did you do it on purpose? !

After class, Rong Jiu planned to go back to the dormitory to put things away, while Draco and the others went to the auditorium to wait for her.As a result, she was dragged into the shadow of the armor by a hand as soon as she left the door of the lounge.

"Who the hell?...Hermione? What's wrong?" Rong Jiu almost took out his wand, looked down on the person in front of him, and then slowly let go.

"I have something to tell you." Hermione whispered, "I want to ask... Would you like to join DA?"

"what is that?"

"I don't think I can learn anything in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, so I plan to learn something by myself." She said, "You have always been very good... I want to ask, would you like to join us?"

"Me?" Rong Jiu pointed at himself in surprise, "but I don't have time. I have classes during the day and Professor Snape at night...uh, make up classes."

"It doesn't have to be at night, as long as everyone has time." Hermione said earnestly.

Rong Jiu looked at her in embarrassment: "Give me some time to think, can you?"

"Of course." Hermione laughed.

The author has something to say:

Second update -0-

Well, in fact, Xiao Jiu is not much better than Hermione, but Hermione has been self-taught, but Xiao Jiu was pulled up by the professor all the way, I think it is natural that he is better than others ha233

And... There are high abuse and high sweetness within a week.I finally figured out the progress hahahaha
