Chapter 1106: Only tricks win people's hearts
The news that Umbridge was sentenced to life imprisonment has quickly spread through the "Daily Prophet" in the magical world, but it has not caused any waves. People are indifferent to what Umbridge has done, and they are more worried about the biggest problem right now. Question: Voldemort.
Since the third Azkaban escape, 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 need to care about Umm. Richie thing.
Perhaps the biggest repercussions from the news of Umbridge's trial probably made many people feel that the current Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, should also be thrown into court, and that Fudge should be given Veritaserum to find out who he is. Not Voldemort's minions, everything he did was buying time for Voldemort.
In the eyes of most wizards, the inactive Minister of Magic is indeed suspicious, especially because he also dragged Dumbledore back and missed the best time to fight Voldemort.
Everyone suspected that Fudge was Voldemort's minions, and he was not wronged.
When the entire magical world was clamoring for Fudge to step down, the former Minister of Magic was completely panicked and didn't know what to do, because he could be sent to court at any time, becoming the first ever to be tried. the Minister of Magic.
In contrast, the Hogwarts students who were busy preparing for their final exams were more concerned about Umbridge's fate than the entire wizarding world.
When Harry and Albert brought the news of Umbridge's life sentence back to Hogwarts, the whole castle boiled over, and the Hogwarts students who had been persecuted by Umbridge were all there. Celebrate that the pink toad has finally been punished.
Lee Jordan is also a student of the Anti-Toad League, taking time out from his busy review to hold a small party to celebrate that Umbridge can only spend the rest of his life in Azkaban.
Harry and Albert, who are currently the most watched, were also invited to attend the party. Even Fred and George, who had left school early for a leave of absence, did not know where they came from. Richie's screaming puppet 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.
"There are actually a lot of secret passages leading to the outside of Hogwarts Castle." Fred smiled and nodded in Albert's direction. "However, we use the fireplace in Professor McGonagall's office."
Fred lied.
In fact, it was Dobby the house-elf who brought the two back to Hogwarts quietly, but Albert asked Fred and George to keep it a secret.
Although I don't know why it was kept secret, they did so and made a random excuse.
"You really run a joke shop?" Cedric asked curiously.
"Yes, the store has been negotiated, the store is being renovated, and it is located at 93 Diagon Alley." George confidently introduced to everyone: "When we leave later, there will be advertising magazines at the door, remember to take one Ben, there are coupons on it, you can buy them at a discount in the store with the coupons, the good things in the store will definitely shock everyone's jaws."
"How many Galleons does it take to open a store, shouldn't it be cheap to rent a store in Diagon Alley?" Marietta Aikemo asked curiously.
"Albert funded the store that the four of us opened together." George explained, "However, you are right, renting a store in Diagon Alley is indeed not cheap."
"Everyone, everyone..."
Lee Jordan walked through the crowd holding a glass of wine and shouted, "Let's toast Professor Toad's health and hope that Professor Toad can spend the rest of his life in Azkaban."
People raised their wine glasses and shouted, "I wish Professor Toad good health and a peaceful life in Azkaban."
Immediately, a burst of laughter resounded through the Room of Requirement, and everyone hadn't been so happy since Umbridge's tenure at Hogwarts.
Even Peeves came to the festive dinner party, sprinkled toads on everyone's heads and lit fireworks.
Finally, with the joyful music, everyone sang "The Song of the Toad" in unison.
The era of the toad is over, and her story will remain forever at the school with her effigy, becoming a Hogwarts legend.
Umbridge's statue was eventually removed from the foyer and moved to a small swamp outside the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom because it was too hot. The professors agreed that the statue should be left to commemorate this time. Great victory.
As for the unfortunate Auror's robe that Albert hung in the corridor, it couldn't be removed no matter what, and it was left there forever.
Those robes, and the related stories, will be passed down from generation to generation with Hogwarts students.
Happy times are always very short.
After the weekend break, everyone ushered in a new round of exams.
In the potion practice test on Monday, the test was done to analyze the mixed poison and configure the antidote.
In Albert's opinion, the difficulty of the exam is not very high. It's just a mixture of three poisons. It doesn't take too long to configure the antidote, but many seventh-grade students feel that this year's potion practice exam is extremely difficult, including Katrina is complaining about the potion practice exam. Most students hope that the practice exam is about configuring potions instead of antidote. At least they have a chance to get high marks.
As for the math and divination exam, the content is relatively simple, but it requires a wizard's calculation ability. Candidates need to accurately predict the outcome of certain events by calculating the probability of the event occurring.
Of course, for students of average numeracy, they undoubtedly encounter difficulties again.
Unsurprisingly, Albert got a high score again.
After finishing the arithmetic and divination, Albert finally finished all the exams. He felt extremely refreshed, and followed everyone for a walk in the sunny field.
As for tomorrow's examination of the advanced class in the history of magic, under normal circumstances, it is difficult for the history of magic to recruit students from the advanced class.
As the most boring course in the past, almost no one wants to take the history of magic.
In fact, it is still an unsolved mystery whether Hogwarts has an advanced class in the history of magic.
"I'm going to have a wizard card party!"
While resting in the shade, Lee Jordan mentioned his plans to Albert.
"It's been a long time since the last wizard card party. If we don't consolidate the wizard card club before we leave the school, I'm very worried that the wizard card club will immediately disband, so you must attend and leave your seat to Lu by the way. Na's matter is confirmed."
Lee Jordan knew very well that the reputation of the Wizarding Card Club in the school was entirely derived from Albert. Once Albert graduated from school, the club would be the same, and only games and bounties could be used to promote the development of Wizarding Cards, although Albert has done that a long time ago, but without Albert, how much vitality this club still has, and whether it can continue to persist, it is really hard to say.
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 come. leisure time.
"no problem."
Lee Jordan is so experienced now that he almost patted his chest and said, "Just come when you remember, and I'll take care of the rest."
"By the way, I'm getting married next month, remember to help!" Albert suddenly lowered his voice.
"What, get married!"
"Shh." Albert made a shush gesture, he didn't want the whole school to know about it.
"So fast!"
Lee Jordan was very surprised that Albert was getting married just after graduation. It was unimaginable.
"For some reason, it was a little bit rushed," Albert said.
"Is the time set?"
"It's settled. When the time comes, look at the information on the card."
"I'm sure a lot of 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 rumors, they won't know." Albert glared fiercely at the biggest rumor maker in Hogwarts in front of him.
"You think too highly of everyone's sense of confidentiality. Even if I don't say it, it won't take long for the whole school to know about your marriage." Li Jordan 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 holiday." Albert glared at Lee Jordan. After taking the envelope from Shanna's hand, he took out the silver card from the deformed lizard's leather bag and handed it to Shanna. The index finger said, "Remember to help me keep it a secret for now."
"Oh, of course it's fine, but..." Shanna took the card and asked, "What is this?"
"Invitation," said Albert.
"Invitation?"
"Yes, the special invitation card, the specific time and place will appear on the card." Albert explained: "Because I was on the blacklist of mysterious people and death eaters, in order to avoid accidents, I did it very carefully. Although Dumbledore promised to attend the wedding a long time ago, I think the safety of the invitees must be considered."
"Oh." Shanna nodded and said, "I see, and congratulations."
"thanks."
"I think she's very lost." 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.
"Who sent it? Would you like me to unpack it for you?" Lee Jordan knew that Albert rarely opened letters from strangers, especially those with only initials.
"No need for now, there should be no curse in the letter." Albert had already guessed who the sender was.
"How do you know there's no curse?" Lee Jordan asked curiously.
"Usually using magic will leave traces, which can be identified by a clever wizard." Albert didn't explain too much. Lee Jordan's magic level did not reach that level, and even if he explained it, he probably couldn't understand it.
With that said, Albert waved his wand and let the envelope open automatically.
There is very little content in the letter, except that he hopes to meet Albert.
Sure enough, it was Rufus Scrimgeour.
It seemed that Ollivander's disappearance still made Scrimgeour unable to bear it.
In fact, as long as your mind is normal, 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 does not mean that every wand maker is like Ollivander. as excellent.
Most importantly, most Death Eaters lost their wands when they were captured, so the Death Eaters had the best chance of capturing Ollivander. After all, they needed Ollivander's help to make a wand that was handy.
For Scrimgeour's letter, Albert did not intend to reply immediately, nor did he intend to meet the other party before graduation, which was undoubtedly a rather risky thing.
Although Albert had a win-win plan in place from the start, putting people aside for now would benefit the next plan.
Who makes most people scumbags?
Sometimes the more passionate you are, the more it can be counterproductive.
He planned to let Scrimgeour speak first, and when the other party asked him to help divine the location of the Death Eaters, he would come up with the plan.
Do more than one thing.
The Ministry of Magic was given the opportunity 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 is over, I'm naturally in a good mood."
"I feel that it has something to do with that letter. Someone is going to have bad luck." Lee Jordan muttered, he still knew Albert quite well, and usually more important letters were burned on the spot.
When the two walked through the corridor on the first floor, they happened to meet Harry's group who poured out of the boys' bathroom.
"What are you doing, are you going to the toilet together?" Lee Jordan asked.
"It's Malfoy, they want to attack Harry, so we..." Ernie McMillan shrugged, "teach them a little lesson."
No one had forgotten Malfoy's domineering virtue when he was a member of the investigative team when he was looking for trouble with the various academies, not to mention the fact that he now had the title of Son of the Death Eater.
"They seem to be greatly stimulated, thinking that it's all my fault that old Malfoy's group became wanted criminals!" Harry said helplessly, "Probably want to beat me up when I'm alone. Bar!"
"So, you deliberately placed the order."
"Cough," Harry coughed softly, "I have to 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, and the first thing to put people's heads in the toilet was They got it out.
"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 so arrogant!"
"Maybe, in a few years, they will join in and become one of the Death Eaters."
