At the weekend, the sudden wave of asylum enrollment was unsuccessful, and on Monday, two new notices and notices continued.These two notices were so big that they even covered the marble border with the notice board.
The wording in these two notices is quite official, and the rows of stereotyped black printing, the bright red seal below the paragraph, and the elegant swash signatures that go around make them look very "official" ".
Harry and Ron stood in the crowd of onlookers, staring at the second notice, a worrisome expression on their slightly pale faces.
"This...what about the Wizards Chess Club? It is the club with the most members in the school at the moment. I can go to activities every day!" A third-year student looked rather anxious beside Harry and Ron.
"Yeah! The match will be held soon again, I'm just about to take a place! I heard that the prizes this time are much more generous than the past two!" His companion couldn't help but wailed. "It's not going to be just like that..."
"Let's go to Professor McLean! He designed this wizard war game. He will definitely help us fix the old witch..."
"I think our wizards will be fine..." Ron opened his mouth with a gloomy expression, and the two little wizards were taken aback.
Yes, Ron, who likes chess games, had already become a member of the very high numbered team since the establishment of the Wizarding Chess Club.
Of course, now he has no intention of worrying about the wizards.
"...What a coincidence, what do you think?" Ron turned his head, frowning and asked Harry.
Harry didn't speak, he just read the contents of the two notices over and over again, feeling a little flustered in his heart.
He thought he could really learn something useful from Maca. Perhaps under Maca's guidance, he could really hold the Gryffindor sword in his hand again and gain the power to slay the fire dragon.
And only in that way can he pick up the heart of courage he had left behind in the top three, and use his own power to help Maca, protect Hogwarts, and maybe even fight Voldemort. .
He couldn't let go of the dark demon who killed his parents after all.It was only because of his lack of strength, in order not to be a hindrance, that he was forced to endure the pain in his heart and remained silent.
However, seeing that opportunity was about to come, Umbridge stood in front of him with a notice.This feeling caused infinite unwillingness to rise in his heart.
"...It can't be a coincidence," Harry clenched his hands.Annoyed, "She must have known it from somewhere!"
"But where did she learn it?" Ron lowered his voice, "Did it when we were meeting in the bar? Or when Hermione chose to pull people? Or... was someone among the attendees telling the news? Up?"
"Who knows?" Harry said irritably, "it's all possible... there are so many possibilities!"
"Zacharys Smith!"
Just as Harry was furious, Ron suddenly widened his eyes and squeezed the name out of his clenched teeth.
"Yeah, he's a bit suspicious..." Harry said with a frown, recalling the rather sassy and noisy yellow-haired boy in the bar.
But Ron paused, then shook his head and said, "Or...that Michael Kona might not be right...it would be too bad if it were that way! No...I have to go find him! "
"Wait!" Harry grabbed Ron.
"What are you doing?" Ron earned, "Let go, Harry!"
"Calm down first, you can't just go like this—" Harry said, looked around at the students who were looking at the two of them, then pulled Ron towards the stairs, "Ron, don't move! You are going to go. Say what? Or don’t say anything, just jump on him and beat him up?"
"That's a good idea!" Ron pulled away Harry's hand slightly irritably, but didn't feel any more impulsive. "...Well, you're right, even if the old toad already knows it, but the matter itself Can’t make it public yet."
If their secretly organizing defense against the dark arts training plan is publicly exposed, then Umbridge really has a reason to investigate and deal with it openly, which is definitely not the development direction they want to see.
"Then... I'll talk to Ginny later, is this the head office?" Ron curled his lips and muttered boredly.
"Those two notices, I don't know if Hermione has been there..." Harry and Ron said as they walked, "We have to go and tell her first."
Shortly after Harry and Ron left the hall, Maca appeared behind the crowd.He crossed the shoulders and heads of the students, looked at the two notices in the distance, and didn't know what he was thinking.
After a short while, he turned around and walked slowly towards the side corridor next to the hall.
"Rufus Scrimgeour...?"
...
On the other side, Harry and Ron hurried back to the Gryffindor common room.As soon as they arrived, when the two found that Hermione and Ginny were not in the lounge, Ron subconsciously sprinted towards the stairs leading to the bedroom.
"Ron, stop!" Harry hurriedly yelled without stopping, "That's a woman—"
Before he finished speaking, Ron, who had run up the spiral staircase, suddenly heard a sirens sound in his ear, and the stairs suddenly softened and turned into a smooth slide.
"what--"
Ron's feet slumped for a while, dancing and trying to keep his balance, but everything seemed to be in vain.Before he had time to jump a few more times, he plopped and fell on the slide, and slid down the slide to Harry's feet.
"...That's the girls' bedroom, I don't think we can go up." Harry laughed and laughed and helped Ron to his feet.
"Um..." Ron covered his nose with one hand, and supported his waist with the other, and said with a bitter face, "Merlin is on... just now my brain must have broken somewhere!"
At this moment, the two girls slid down the slide happily.
"Oh—Which warrior wants to come up? Let me see—" The two of them jumped up and giggled, staring at Harry and Ron.
"You know it at a glance, don't you?" Ron said in embarrassment, "I think... when was the last time I played a slide?"
The two girls didn't care about Ron's irritation. They circled around him, then continued to giggle and went to the port of the portrait.
"It's not fair!" Ron said dissatisfiedly, "Hermione can go to our bedroom, why can't we—"
"...Isn't this obvious?"
Hermione's voice faintly came from above the slide, and the next moment, she fell gently on the blanket in front.
"It was mentioned in "Hogwarts, a School History" that the founder of the school felt that in some respects, boys are obviously not as reliable as girls...Well, why did you want to come up just now?"
"Of course I'm going to find you--" Ron said, lowering his voice again, "You'd better go to the hall and have a look, something terrible happened!"
The three ran in a hurry again, leading Hermione back to the bulletin board in the castle hall again.There were fewer students now than before, and Hermione could easily get to the front.
When her gaze flashed up and down quickly, her face immediately became more serious.She did not leave soon, but carefully re-read every sentence in the two notices.
After a while, when Ron and Harry outside the crowd began to worry again, Hermione finally got out of the crowd.
"I think someone among the participants must have reported!" Ron leaned forward immediately and whispered.
"If this is the case, then we will soon know who the informer is!" Hermione said, and shook her head. "I am more worried about something else than the informer."
"You will know soon? Why?" Ron asked in surprise.
"I cast a curse on the parchment that everyone signed, a commonly used contract—" Hermione explained softly, "Although I haven't been able to embed a better penalty for breach of contract, but if a whistleblower really appears , Then we must be able to find out!"
"What if someone cracks it?" Harry said worriedly.
"If you can see through the curse on the parchment, then the other party will not sign the name from the beginning, because signing the name is equivalent to actively forming a contact with the contract spell." Hermione gave them a relieved look. , "The spell itself is on the parchment. If you want to crack it, you must get it first!") Download the free reader!!
