Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1108 Only routines win people's hearts

The news that Umbridge was sentenced to life imprisonment has been quickly spread in the wizarding world through the "Daily Prophet", but it has not caused any waves. People are indifferent to what Umbridge has done, and they are more worried about the biggest issue at the moment. Question: Voldemort.

Since the third escape from Azkaban, Voldemort and the Death Eaters are still at large, but the Ministry of Magic has never been able to come up with effective countermeasures. Everyone is in danger, and there is no time to care about Um Rich thing.

Perhaps the biggest reaction to the news of Umbridge's trial was that many felt that the current Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, should be thrown into court and that Fudge should be given Veritaserum to find out who he really was. Not Voldemort's minion, everything he did was buying time for Voldemort.

  In the eyes of most wizards, the ineffective Minister of Magic is indeed suspicious, especially because he was holding back Dumbledore and missed the best time to fight Voldemort.

   Everyone suspected that Fudge was Voldemort's minion, and he was not wronged.

When the entire magical world was muttering for Fudge to step down, the former Minister of Magic was completely panicked and didn't know what to do, because he might be brought to court at any time, becoming the first person ever to be tried Minister of Magic.

  In contrast, the Hogwarts students who were busy preparing for their final exams paid more attention to Umbridge's fate than the entire wizarding world.

When Harry and Albert brought the news back to Hogwarts that Umbridge had been sentenced to life imprisonment, the whole castle erupted completely, and the Hogwarts students who had been persecuted by Umbridge were all in Celebrating the pink toad's comeuppance at last.

  Lee Jordan was even a student of the Anti-Toad Alliance, and took time out of his busy review to hold a small party to celebrate that Umbridge could only spend the rest of his life in Azkaban.

Harry and Albert, who have attracted the most attention so far, were also invited to this party. Even Fred and George, who had already left school early, appeared out of nowhere. The umm they brought Rich screamed at the puppet, which pushed the atmosphere of the whole party to a climax.

   "How did you do it, I mean how did you go back to school?" Angelina gave Fred a warm hug and curiously asked everyone's doubts.

   "In Hogwarts Castle, there are actually many secret passages leading outside the school." Fred smiled and nodded in Albert's direction, "However, we use the fireplace in Professor McGonagall's office."

  Fred lied.

   It was actually Dobby the house-elf who took the two back to Hogwarts quietly, but Albert asked Fred and George to keep it a secret.

   Although they didn't know why they kept it a secret, they did and made up an excuse.

   "You really opened a joke shop?" Cedric asked curiously.

"Yes, the storefront has been negotiated. The store is under renovation. It is located at No. 93, Diagon Alley." George introduced to everyone confidently: "When you leave later, there will be advertising magazines at the door. Remember to take one for each of you." Ben, there is a coupon on it, you can use the coupon to buy at a discount in the store, the good things in the store will definitely surprise everyone's jaws."

   "How much Galleon does it cost to open a store? It shouldn't be cheap to rent a storefront in Diagon Alley, right?" Marietta Aikemo asked curiously.

   "Albert funded it, and the four of us jointly opened the store." George explained, "However, you are right, it is really not cheap to rent a store in Diagon Alley."

   "Everyone, everybody..."

  Lee Jordan walked through the crowd holding a glass of wine, and shouted: "Let's drink to the health of Professor Toad, and hope that Professor Toad can spend the rest of his life in Azkaban."

  People raised their glasses and said loudly: "I wish Professor Toad good health and spend the rest of his life in Azkaban."

   Immediately, a burst of laughter resounded through the Room of Requirement. Since Umbridge's tenure at Hogwarts, everyone has not been as happy as today.

  Even Peeves came to join in the merriment of the dinner party, dropping toad papers over everyone's heads and setting off fireworks.

  Finally, with joyful music, everyone sang "The Toad's Song" in unison.

  The era of Toad is over, but her story will still remain in the school forever with her statue, becoming a legend of Hogwarts.

The statue of Umbridge was finally removed from the foyer because it was too eye-catching, and moved to the small swamp outside the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom. The professors agreed that the statue should be left to commemorate this great event. victory.

  As for the unlucky Auror's robe hung by Albert in the corridor, it can't be removed no matter what, and it will stay there forever.

  The robes and related stories will also be passed down from generation to generation along with Hogwarts students.

  Happy time is always very short.

  After the weekend holiday, everyone is ushering in a new round of exams again.

  Monday's potion practical exam, as expected, the test is to analyze the mixed poison and prepare the antidote.

In Albert's opinion, the difficulty of the exam is not very high. It is just a mixture of three poisons, and it will not take too long to prepare the antidote. However, many students in the seventh grade feel that this year's potion practice exam is extremely difficult, including Katrina was complaining about the potion practical exam. Most students hoped that the practical exam would be about preparing potions instead of antidote. At least they would still have a chance to get high marks.

  As for the content of the arithmetic and divination test is relatively simple, it requires the calculation ability of wizards. Candidates need to accurately predict the outcome of certain events by calculating the probability of the event occurring.

  Of course, for students with average computing skills, they will undoubtedly encounter difficulties again.

   Not surprisingly, Albert scored high again.

  After finishing the arithmetic divination, Albert finally finished all the exams. He felt very refreshed and walked with everyone in the sunny place.

  As for tomorrow's history of magic advanced class exam, under normal circumstances, history of magic is very difficult to recruit students for the advanced class.

  As the most boring course in the past, almost no one wants to take history of magic.

  In fact, it is still an unsolved mystery whether Hogwarts has advanced courses in the history of magic in the past.

   "I'm going to throw a wizard card party!"

   While resting in the shade of a tree, Lee Jordan mentioned his plan to Albert.

"It's been a long time since the last wizarding card gathering. If we don't strengthen the wizarding card club before we leave school, I'm worried that the wizarding card club will disband immediately, so you must attend and leave the seat for Lu by the way. Na's matter is confirmed."

Lee Jordan is very clear that the reputation of the Wizard Card Club in the school is entirely derived from Albert. Once Albert graduates from school, the club will be like that, and it can only use competitions and bounties to promote the development of the Wizard Card Club. Although Albert has been doing that for a long time, but without Albert, it is really hard to say how much vitality the club still has and whether it can continue.

  In the eyes of Lee Jordan, Luna is not a qualified club manager.

"The time is set on Friday, when the final exams are over, everyone can relax, and remember to tell Luna in advance." Albert finalized the specific time, and they still have several days to go Leisure time.

"no problem."

  Lee Jordan is very experienced now, so he almost patted his chest and said: You just need to remember to come when the time comes, and I will take care of other things.

   "By the way, I'm getting married next month, remember to help!" Albert suddenly lowered his voice.

   "What, get married!"

   "Shh." Albert made a shh gesture. He didn't want the whole school to know about this.

"So fast!"

  Lee Jordan was very surprised. Albert was going to get married just after graduation, which was unimaginable.

   "For some reason, the time is a bit rushed." Albert said.

   "Is the time set?"

   "It's settled, look at the information on the card when the time comes."

   "I dare say that many girls will be sad because of this." Lee Jordan touched Albert with his elbow and joked with a smile.

   "As long as you don't spread the word, they won't know." Albert stared fiercely at the biggest rumor maker in Hogwarts in front of him.

   "You think too highly of everyone's sense of secrecy. Even if I don't tell you, the whole school will know about your marriage in a short time." Li Qiaodan shook his head and said.

   "I heard, who's getting married?" Shanna asked. She handed a letter to Albert.

   "Of course it's Albert." Lee Jordan turned his head and asked, "You haven't sent them an invitation yet?"

"I originally planned to wait until the holidays." Albert gave Lee Jordan a hard look, and after taking the envelope from Shanna, he took out the silver card from the deformed lizard leather bag and handed it to Shanna, standing up. The index finger said: "Remember to keep it secret for me for the time being."

   "Oh, of course it's fine, but..." Shanna took the card and asked, "What is this?"

   "Invitation." Albert said.

   "Invitation?"

"Yes, it's a special invitation card. The specific time and place will appear on the card." Albert explained, "Because I was blacklisted by mysterious people and Death Eaters, in order to avoid accidents, I did a very strict Although Dumbledore agreed to attend the wedding very early, I think the safety of the invitees must be considered."

   "Oh." Shanna nodded and said, "I see, and congratulations."

"Thanks."

   "I think she is very disappointed." Lee Jordan looked at Shanna's leaving back and touched Albert with his elbow.

   "Shut up, if you're envious, hurry up and find a girl you like." Albert glanced at the letter in his hand and frowned slightly. There was no sender on the envelope, only RS was marked.

   "Who sent it? Do you want me to open it for you?" Lee Jordan knew that Albert seldom opened letters from strangers, especially those that only left initials.

   "Not for now, there should be no curses in the letter." Albert had already guessed who the sender was.

   "How do you know there are no jinxes?" Lee Jordan asked curiously.

   "Generally, magic will leave traces, and a skilled wizard can recognize them through the traces." Albert didn't explain too much. Lee Jordan's magic level has not reached that level, and he probably wouldn't understand even if he explained it.

   As he spoke, Albert waved his wand, directly causing the envelope to open automatically.

  There is very little content in the letter, only saying that he hopes to meet Albert.

   Sure enough, it was Rufus Scrimgeour.

   It seems that the disappearance of Ollivander still made Scrimgeour unbearable.

  Actually, as long as you have a normal mind, you will realize the importance of this wand maker. However, before Ollivander disappeared, no one noticed it. Even if the Ministry of Magic can find a new wand maker, it doesn't mean that every wand maker is like Ollivander. excellent.

  The most important thing is that most Death Eaters lost their wands when they were arrested, so the Death Eaters have the highest probability of catching Ollivander. After all, they need Ollivander's help to make a handy wand.

   Regarding Scrimgeour's letter, Albert did not intend to reply to the letter immediately, let alone meet with him before graduation. That would undoubtedly be quite a risky thing.

  Although Albert has prepared a win-win plan from the beginning, it is beneficial to the next plan to put people aside now.

  Who makes most people guilty?

  Sometimes the more enthusiastic you are, the more counterproductive it will be.

  He planned to ask Scrimgeour to speak first, and when the other party asked him to help divination the location of the Death Eaters, he would come up with the plan.

   Serves multiple purposes.

  The Ministry of Magic got the chance to capture the Death Eaters, and he managed to solve a big problem.

   It can only be said that only routines can win people's hearts.

   "You seem to be in a good mood."

   "Of course, after the exam, I'm in a good mood."

   "I feel that it has something to do with that letter. Someone is going to be unlucky." Lee Jordan muttered. He still knew Albert quite well, and usually the more important letters would be burned on the spot.

  When the two of them were walking through the corridor on the first floor, they happened to meet Harry and his group pouring out of the boys' bathroom.

   "What are you guys doing, going to the bathroom together?" Lee Jordan asked.

   "It was Malfoy, they wanted to sneak up on Harry, so we just..." Ernie McMillan shrugged, "Teach them a little lesson."

   Everyone hasn't forgotten Malfoy's domineering virtue when he was a member of the investigative operation team when he troubled various colleges, let alone now he has the title of Son of Death Eater.

"They seem to have been greatly stimulated, thinking that it's my fault that old Malfoy and his gang have become wanted criminals!" Harry said helplessly, "Probably want to beat me up when I'm alone Bar!"

   "So, you left alone on purpose."

   "Ahem." Harry coughed dryly softly, "I must give them a chance."

"Be careful, don't kill people, even if they are the descendants of Death Eaters." Albert reminded kindly, he knew what was going on in the toilet now, the first thing to do was to stuff people's heads into the toilet They made it.

"yes."

  Harry looked in the direction of the bathroom, and said softly: "Now everyone knows what despicable fellows they are, and they are all descendants of Death Eaters, yet they are still so arrogant!"

   "Perhaps, in a few years, they will join in and become one of the Death Eaters."
