Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

"Hogwarts on the tip of the tongue (

"... Carry out supplementary background checks for all relevant personnel in the education industry."

"In view of the importance of the magic school, the starting point for this supplementary background review is calculated after graduating from Hogwarts."

"Under the guidance of this Education Order, relevant practitioners in educational establishments including but not limited to official Hogwarts professors, castle administrators, hunting ground guards, and honorary lecturers shall actively seek guidance from senior investigators of the Ministry of Magic and other relevant departments, and Cooperate with the corresponding review-any act of deliberate obstruction, resistance or concealment is equivalent to failing the background review and is suspended indefinitely awaiting follow-up processing."

"In order to ensure the normal operation of education, when the principal is unable to provide a faculty candidate, the Ministry of Magic will appoint a candidate."

"The senior investigator will publish the results to the public in schools and designated newspapers the day after the investigation is over."

"The above regulations are in line with the "Education Order No. 25."

Hermione finished reading and turned to look at Elena, looking worried.

"A background check for all faculty and staff? If you fail the review, you will be suspended indefinitely?!"

Hermione’s breathing was a bit short, her eyes gleaming, "Doesn’t that mean that all the professors at Hogwarts can be suspended overnight if she wants? This kind of outrageous thing, Professor Dumbledore actually Will the Ministry of Magic be allowed to intervene?!"

"Well, in a strict sense, even extreme cases cannot be all..."

Elena said that she glanced at Luna and Hannah who were walking down the stairs holding "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight".

The grammar class in another class in the second grade just ended, and they obviously saw the big announcement posted at the entrance of the auditorium.

"The two courses of grammar and history of magic can't be changed anymore—unless the Ministry of Magic can bring in a few ghosts to compete for posts. Of course, I guess Umbridge’s goal is obviously not these two courses. . But the specifics of her target will be known after the end of today. After all, after the announcement, the senior investigator lady will definitely find one or two courses to take the initiative to attack..."

"So..."

While most of the people were still discussing the announcement, Hermione followed Elena into the auditorium first, and asked in a low voice.

"Is this also in your plan? But I still don't understand. How can this prevent us from submitting that paper on werewolves next week?"

Elena shrugged.

"Yes, and no. Umbridge will definitely get extra authorization, which is the result of stimulating her before. But the purpose of this is more to hand her a sharp double-edged sword. People will always produce Everyone has the same illusion as himself. In Umbridge’s eyes, the Hogwarts faculty team must have a lot of ill-conceived backgrounds. Both the principal and I trust every professor at the school, except for the senior officials of the Ministry of Magic..."

"What are you talking about? What double-edged sword, black material?" At this moment, Hannah leaned over, "I seem to hear that I don't hand in the paper?"

"Who gave your Defence Against the Dark Arts class this week?" Elena looked at Hanhan.

"Professor Lupin--"

Hannah said excitedly, and now the defense against the Dark Arts class in the lower grades is like a lottery.

Since Umbridge also has to take care of the work of the senior inspector, she and Professor Lupin occasionally adjust the class schedule according to the situation. For the little wizard at Hogwarts, he can draw Professor Lupin’s defense against the dark magic every week. The technical class is undoubtedly a very happy thing.

"Oh, that's okay. If it's Professor Umbridge's class, you can skip the homework next week."

"—Oh."

Hannah felt the happy balloon in her heart burst.

"Uh, but you can think of something good, such as Umbridge reviewing your teacher in the following class."

Elena smiled and comforted, "Your next class will be potions class, right? If Professor Snape's background check fails, either Professor Snape will be temporarily suspended for leave, or Umbridge will be secretly poisoned. Miracles and hopes exist after all, don't they?"

However, Hannah apparently had no such luck to meet Umbridge in the potions class.

When Elena and Hermione walked into the transformation classroom, they immediately noticed the strange atmosphere in the air.

Dolores Umbridge took the writing board and sat in the corner of the last row of the classroom. It was obvious that after the Ministry of Magic issued the latest "Education Order No. 25", she chose to take it first. Hogwarts' vice-principal, Minerva McGonagall, made his way.

"This is interesting," they sat down in the first row of the classroom, and Elena whispered, "Umbridge may have to poke a big basket."

Professor McGonagall strode into the classroom.

Judging from her expression, she didn't seem to notice that there was an unexpected guest in the transfiguration classroom at all.

"Okay, now I'm ready to start class."

As the class bell rang, Professor McGonagall spoke, and the classroom immediately became quiet.

"Miss Kaslana, please come and help distribute the homework--Miss Granger, we are learning about living body transformation today. Please take this box of mice and give it to your classmates. Or one for each group—and you too— —Observe each other and correct the spellcasting of their companions—"

"Cough, cough." Professor Umbridge coughed, which is her favorite way to declare her existence.

Professor McGonagall pretended not to hear, and continued to talk about the precautions for deformation.

And Elena also quickly finished homework with great understanding, and did not give Umbridge any chance to look around and question.

The senior investigator seemed to want to chat with Lavender, but Elena’s thesis assignment "accidentally" hit Lavender’s mouse. Amidst the rat’s squeaking and Lavender’s screaming, Neville He hurriedly helped catch the mice, and directly persuaded Umbridge's actions.

"Okay, classmates, please listen carefully-Neville, you don't need to grab that mouse so hard, they all take the medicine, they won't run around or bite you-we have learned about snails before , The simple deformation of pebbles, now we have to start to increase the difficulty, to deform mammals with spine such as mice. Today, our course goal is—"

"Cough, cough." Umbridge's cough was noticeably louder.

"What's wrong with you?"

In Elena's expectant gaze, Professor McGonagall turned around as he spoke.

The two brows of the older cat mother gathered together, which seemed to form a long, forbidding straight line.

"If you have a discomfort in your throat, I suggest you go to Madam Pomfrey to get a cure. If the school infirmary cannot cure your bronchial problem, then there is also the St. Mungo Hospital for Magical Injuries-Hogwarts It is never advocated to attend classes with illness, it is easy to infect students."

Unlike the restraint during the first confrontation in the original book, McGonagall has long seen Umbridge displeased in this world line disrupted by Elena.

Decades ago, when she was a Hogwarts assistant at the time, she witnessed the Auror break into the school, arbitrarily put on Professor Dumbledore in the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and banned Professor Dumbledore. Continue to serve as the teacher of this course.

After a few decades, the Ministry of Magic tried to rush into the school and arrested a full professor secretly.

More importantly, as the announcement at noon today was posted, the reason why Umbridge appeared here is naturally self-evident.

This senior official from the Ministry of Magic clearly intends to make her the subject of the first background check-this is undoubtedly a naked insult in Minerva McGonagall's view, and the deliberate provocation and targeting. , As long as you are not blind can see it.

Since McGonagall and Elena spent a long time together in private, her yin and yang strange irony skills have also been honed.

Maybe she couldn't keep up with that little witch irritating, but if it was used to deal with a certain senior investigator, it was more than enough.

However, Umbridge obviously did not have the corresponding psychological preparation.

"Um, uh...cough, I—"

She looked as if she had been slapped hard, and there was a vague purr in her throat.

Umbridge's chest fluctuated violently for a few seconds, resisting his anger, trying to pile up a smiling face and continued.

"Oh, Professor McGonagall, I just want to know if you have received my note. The above informs you about the arrangements for checking your class, as well as the date and date of your personal background check before coming to teach at Hogwarts. When—"

"I obviously received it, otherwise I will ask you what you are doing in my classroom."

Professor McGonagall interrupted Umbridge unceremoniously and said coldly.

"As for what background check you mentioned, I should have responded clearly to you-without interrupting my class and preparation, you can ask questions at random. You have to know, if it is not for the call of the Ministry of Magic , To help you complete the review and save each other’s time. I originally planned to let you provide a logical review plan first."

"To be honest, the requirements you made are a bit more general, and what I repeat one by one may be able to speak for a few years."

In the joy and excitement of many students, Professor McGonagall obviously won the battle~www.readwn.com~ The smile on Umbridge's face couldn't be stretched, and his complexion quickly became gloomy.

She didn't speak, she squeezed the parchment paper on the writing board, and began to scribble in anger.

Professor McGonagall looked indifferent, turned his attention to the whole class again, and continued to lecture.

"I just said: Cross-species Living Transfiguration. As the animals that are the targets of the spell become more and more complex, the overall considerations and magic skills of your spells have also increased year-on-year. The pebbles are ordinary inanimate mixtures, and the snails It is a kind of invertebrate, and mice are obviously much more difficult than them. I hope that when you cast spells, you still follow the'Meg's three-step rule of transformation' and don't jump randomly—"

"I think what Professor McGonagall said just now seems a bit like you..."

Hermione lowered her voice, raised her eyebrows at Elena, with a mischievous smile.

"No wonder you said when you came back that day that Professor McGonagall became less serious. Was this the reason?"

She finally knew why Elena looked like an enemy before going to Professor McGonagall's tuition.

Only magic can defeat magic, and Dean Gryffindor has obviously learned some special skills, so that Elena will occasionally suffer.

After all, she is a student, and when some older cat ladies put down their body to fight back, Elena will still suffer.

However, if you sacrifice a little bit of your own happiness, you can make Professor McGonagall directly smash the toad. Elena is more willing to regard the previous fearless sacrifice as an alternative investment-not to mention, in addition to Umbridge, Dumbledore will also deal with McGonagall.

Laoxin's old carrot calculated her hatred for forging her signature before, she still remembered it!
