Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue Chapter 849: Toad's first lesson audio novel listen online

A quarter of an hour later, the bell for class in the afternoon rang.

Elena and Hermione walked towards the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom on the fourth floor of the castle.

In the entire Hogwarts Castle, this floor is the place that a certain road fool hates most.

Not only was the corridor on the fourth floor of Hogwarts the most forks and the most involved main courses, but more importantly, because the armors located in the main road "Armor Corridor" would move from time to time, Elena couldn't even rely on the counter to remember the route.

The corridor on the right side of the castle is now temporarily closed. Last year, this corridor was used as the entrance of the "Dark Devil End-of-Term Practice Assessment" project. Pass through the corner of this corridor and move forward. Behind a tapestry, hidden leads to the dark The passage of the magic defense class classroom...Elena has always believed that the old Tudou must secretly cheated when she was able to find the classroom during the substitute class last year.

"Hermione, you will be a little low-key in class later. You have also heard Luna say that Professor Umbridge is different from other professors. If you remember her part-time position at the Ministry of Magic, You should understand what this means."

"Meaning... the Ministry of Magic is trying to intervene in Hogwarts?"

"Well, it's not that sharp. It should be said that it is trying to adapt and integrate into the magic education system."

There is no doubt that Dolores Umbridge is a standard politician, but the bureaucracy is extremely sophisticated and sleek.

Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic are currently in the honeymoon period. As long as Umbridge does not have the Imperius Curse, it is absolutely impossible to gamble on a political career to blatantly interfere with Hogwarts’ existing educational forms as in the original book. .

But on the other hand, if she does nothing at Hogwarts, it is also a very bad situation.

As a special official with a political color, Umbridge will definitely take certain aspects as a breakthrough, and find a way to grab enough money for the Ministry of Magic and her own political career... This is probably also the task of Cornell Fudge. .

However, no one knows what her goal is for the time being.

Elena shook her head, frowned slightly, and said softly with some uncertainty.

"Since Luna specifically reminded us, let's pay more attention, don't you? At least try to keep a low profile and don't mark us as prey by the woman surnamed Umbridge..."

If Elena remembers it correctly, in the first class of the original, Hermione stunned Umbridge.

If it weren’t for Harry Potter’s silly mockery skills, it’s estimated that the little **** would become the "chicken" that Dolores Umbridge "killed the chicken" at Hogwarts, and if the same The confrontation is happening now...

This scene may be used as the fuse of the "third war of wizards" and written into the future history of magic textbooks.

"I see, I see... Are you embarrassed to tell me? I am not a problem student like you."

Hermione raised her eyebrows and glanced at the white hair dumpling somewhat inexplicably.

"Elena, you should take care of yourself first-you were locked up for a day when the class started, even if you are now the Queen of Gringotts, even if you may be rich again, you can't do whatever you want in the school... …"

"...Sorry, uh..."

Elena bit the tip of her tongue, wisely did not continue to joke, and said casually.

"Well, you are right. All in all, we can monitor each other so that we won’t lose points today... I don’t know what will be said in today’s Defense Against the Dark Arts class. I hope I won’t be in these few hours in the afternoon. Too difficult..."

History may change, but human nature is difficult to change.

In other words, the grasp of the nature of certain adult wizards is one of the golden fingers that Elena can rely on.

Especially for bureaucrats such as Dolores Umbridge and Cornelius Fudge, who have solidified the three views, Elena did not expect them to give people any surprises from the beginning-a toad is a toad, and a rice bucket is a rice bucket. .

"I hope you do it for yourself, Toad...otherwise..."

Elena urged Hermione casually, a faint light of danger flashed through her eyes.

You know, she worked so hard to change the world, not to let the moths of the Ministry of Magic sit back and enjoy it.

...

Due to the chain reaction of the delay in the morning, Elena and Hermione were the last to arrive in the classroom.

When they walked into the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom, they found that Professor Umbridge was already sitting behind the podium.

Umbridge was still wearing the fluffy pink cardigan she had worn the night before, with the black velvet bow on top of her head. She was staring down at the lesson plan on the desk at this time, whispering thoughtfully. Muttering something.

The little wizards in the classroom were silent, and Professor Umbridge was still unknown.

Regardless of whether it is for children from a magical family or a non-magical family, the senior deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic, facing such an unusually large figure, most of the little wizards have shown varying degrees of restraint.

No one knows how strict this "special professor" from the Ministry of Magic is for classroom discipline.

After all, in the description of the second-grade class b students, she seems to be more demanding than Professor McGonagall.

In a quiet and depressing atmosphere, Elena and Hermione quietly walked through the classroom hallway and sat down at the old long table directly in front of the lecture table—just like the potions class, "The scumbag died "The throne" has always been reserved for them by default.

"Oh, you are two minutes late, ladies."

Almost as soon as they took their seats, a whining voice suddenly rang from the podium.

I don’t know when, Professor Umbridge has raised his head and stared at the two little witches who had just stepped into the classroom with those two toad-like eyes with saggy eyelids. The palms with stubby fingers were on the desk. The list of students moved slightly.

"Professor, but the bell for the second class is not yet..."

Hermione, who was still sorting her schoolbag, was taken aback, and subconsciously defended in a low voice.

The class bell of Hogwarts Castle usually has two rounds. The first round is to remind students to go to the classroom, and the other round represents the official start of the class. When they enter the classroom and sit down at the desk, the second The round has not sounded yet.

"Of course I know Hogwarts will ring the bell twice, honey..."

Umbridge whispered in an intimate voice, but there was a piercing smile in his eyes.

"The first round is to notify the students, and the second round is to notify the professor...well, it means that classes can start."

While Umbridge was speaking, the Hogwarts class bell rang, and the witch paused for a while, and when the voice disappeared completely, she continued to speak softly in that whispering voice.

"...In my class, I hope you can arrive at the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom five minutes before the second round of bell rings-so that we can start the class on time, understand?"

"Since you are late for the first time, I will not deduct points, but I will record the situation on..."

Umbridge smiled and picked up a notebook, tapped on it with stubby fingers, and looked around the classroom.

"...The class records are included in your final grade assessment, and if you have any violations of discipline and regulations in the course, it will also be recorded in this book...By the way, I attach great importance to daily scores. "

"But we didn't know..."

Hermione froze for a moment, looked at the witch with a smirk unconvinced, and explained cautiously.

If she knew this rule in advance, she would rather eat a few bites of beef tongue than it would be late.

"Hermione, stop fighting!" Elena warned quietly, pulling her sleeves.

As a bureaucrat from the Ministry of Magic, Umbridge is quite adept at "killing chickens and monkeys".

Obviously, in the eyes of this old toad, the two little witches, who ranked first and second last year, are used to deter other students. Even if the reason is far-fetched, if the dispute is in the end, it is definitely them who are at the helm.

Elena stood up a bit, held the unwilling little **** beside her, and said with a smile.

"Madam Minister, I'm sorry, we will make it earlier next time."

"Oh, Miss Kaslana, it's the deputy minister! Of course, you may not know the structure of society that much."

Umbridge pursed the corner of his mouth happily, waved his hand artificially, and squeaked to correct it.

"By the way, I should be called a professor at school-don't call me wrong next time! Otherwise I will deduct points!"

"Okay, Professor Umbridge." Elena's eyes flickered, and she agreed sweetly.

Just like Cornelius Fudge's positioning of Umbridge, this is a shit-cutter used to mess up the situation.

With the power that Elena currently controls, if she wants to clean up this toad, she can make Umbridge silently disappear into this world without even ordering herself, but...

What Elena lacks right now is not talents. She has the biggest gap, in fact, the kind people who can help out.

After all, even if Tom Riddle is in the form of thousands and the power of Death Eaters is secretly scattered around the world, she can't push all the bad things, bad things, and gangsters on the "most terrible dark king ever". what!

Today, the two senior officials of the British Ministry of Magic are obviously promising wizards who can inherit the "will of the pot."

It would be a shame if such a rare and rare "talent" is directly wasted because of some childish conflicts, or forms a chain of contradictions and suspicions that may make people suspicious.

Of course, from the perspective of Dolores Umbridge, Elena's well-behaved and decent fits her mind.

"It really deserves to be a pure-blood descendant from the oldest magic family..."

Umbridge nodded softly, almost invisibly, and gave a secret approval in his heart.

As the senior deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic, she naturally knew the true identity of the professor "Otto Apocalis", and Umbridge also learned a little about the relationship between Elena and the old man through many channels. information.

As for what Muggle orphanage is said to be?

What mudblood wizard who has never learned magic?

What kind of orphan girl from the non-magical world, lacking education?

Perhaps those naive students and inexperienced professors would believe it, but as a senior official of the Ministry of Magic, Umbridge is too familiar with the routines of those hidden magic families... these are just cover-ups!

She knew at a glance that this little guy could not be those mudbloods from the non-magical world.

If he is really an orphan with no background, Dumbledore would not use his personal relationship to apply for two Merlin Medals for this child during the last semester-even in the magic world, even the Ministry of Magic It is extremely difficult for a senior official to obtain a medal, let alone a first-year student who is still studying.

"Well, this time I will give a verbal warning first, and it will not be counted in the final assessment."

Umbridge groaned for a moment, and a sweet and greasy smile squeezed out of his pale and loose fat face.

"Sit down, kids... we are about to get ready to start class!"

Anyway, the effect of deterring the little guys has been achieved, and there is no need for her to continue targeting the two little witches.

In any case, Paracelsus' face should be taken into consideration.

...

"Good afternoon, classmates!"

After the whole class sat down, Umbridge cleared his throat and said clearly. 3

There was a sparse response in the classroom, and many students murmured "Good afternoon" in response.

"Tsk, tusk," Umbridge narrowed his eyes and said softly, somewhat dissatisfied. "That's not good, is it?"

"I hope you will answer like this,'Good afternoon, Professor Umbridge.' Please do it again. Good afternoon, classmates!"

"Good afternoon, Professor Umbridge." The students answered in unison.

"Oh, that's right!" Professor Umbridge said in a whisper.

"It's not too difficult, isn't it? Put away your wand and take out the quill now. We have started class."

Many students exchanged a surprised look. In Hogwarts, there are many courses that do not use magic wands. There are also many interesting contents, such as potions, flying lessons, herbal medicine lessons, and magical animal protection lessons. ...

But judging from the situation last semester, Defence Against the Dark Arts is obviously not in the ranks of not using a wand.

Professor Quirinas Quillo also used pen and paper during class, but when Professor Otto Apocalis started to substitute, let alone books and textbooks, most of the time, there were even desks in the classroom. Neither the chair nor the chair can be seen.

Almost every time in the Dark Arts Defense class, the students wield their wands and conduct offensive and defensive drills.

Therefore, after hearing such an unfamiliar instruction, there was a burst of low voice in the classroom.

Unlike the other students, Elena did not take out the chopsticks from the beginning.

"Sure enough, it's the familiar Umbridge, the standard is so standard that it can no longer be standard written education."

She watched Hermione put away her wand, took out the quill, ink, and parchment, and raised her eyebrow thoughtfully.

And the most interesting thing is...the old turnip has no objection?

Ignoring the discussion in the classroom, Professor Umbridge opened her handbag, drew a surprisingly short wand from it, and tapped it **** the blackboard. Two lines of words appeared on the blackboard immediately.

Defense Against the Dark Arts

Back to basics

"Students, this year, what we are going to study is a well-arranged, theory-centered, and approved by the Ministry of Magic. The Ministry of Magic believes that theoretical knowledge can help you understand magic more effectively and pass the exam. "

Professor Umbridge turned to face the classmates, crossed his hands and ten fingers, put them upright on his chest, and said.

"In the final analysis, letting students pass the exam is the purpose of the school. Regrettably, Hogwarts seemed to place too much emphasis on practice before, so that many wizards did not know how to be cautious and legal after graduation. Use magic. In my class, you will learn about defense against dark magic in a safe and risk-free way."

"Of course, in the new Hogwarts curriculum standards, these issues will be improved, please copy these words."

She tapped on the blackboard again, and the two lines just disappeared, replaced by "course objectives".

"1. Understand the basic principles of magic defense."

"2. Learn to identify situations where magic defense can be used legally."

"3. Evaluate magic defense in the context of actual use."

Only the rustle of quill pen writing on parchment in the classroom.

Two or three minutes later ~www.ltnovel.com~ When every student copied down the three course goals of Professor Umbridge, she asked, "I heard that there are no books in the list of books before the beginning of this semester. Join Wilbert Slinka’s "Magic Defense Theory", right?"

There were jagged answers in the classroom.

"I think we have to do it again."

Professor Umbridge said, repeating it tirelessly in a way as if teaching a child.

"When I ask you a question, I want you to answer'Yes, Professor Umbridge'. Or'No, Professor Umbridge'. Once again, does every student have Wilbert at hand? ·Slinka’s "Magic Defense Theory"?"

"Yes, Professor Umbridge." The class replied loudly.

"Okay, very energetic—"

Dolores Umbridge nodded in satisfaction, and tapped his wand **** the blackboard.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of densely packed lines appeared in the center of the blackboard, occupying all the space.

Professor Umbridge left the blackboard and sat down on the chair behind the podium, staring at the somewhat dazed little wizards with droopy eyelids and toad-like eyes, clapped his hands happily, and said in a relaxed tone.

"I hope you will pick up your pen and start excerpting from'Chapter One, Basic Principles of Getting Started'. I will switch to the next page in 20 minutes, and then I will check your excerpts one by one when class is over. Let's start now..."
