Ravenclaw's Blue Gem

"Umbridge, is that the new professor?" Padma said. "She is an official of the Ministry of Magic?"

"Yes, it's still a deputy minister who condescends to teach at Hogwarts." Zoe sneered, "I want to see what she can do."

"My sister has her class today, and she complained to me before." Padma said, "Can you imagine she let them study for the entire class? Just read the textbook and do nothing else . There is no demonstration, no practice, but there is homework..."

"It may be a test, to test whether we are dissatisfied with such a teaching plan... Has someone contradicted her?"

"Later, almost the entire class was retorting her." Padma shrugged. "It's just that no one has resisted as much as Potter and his friends." Zoe's heart burst."Including Hermione?"

"She was the first to rebel against her." Padma then began to describe to Zoe the scene her sister Parvati told her, "She let them read quietly, but when they looked up again Granger raised her hand. She probably kept it. After the new professor couldn't ignore her and called her name, she began to question her teaching plan."

"What then?" Zoe stepped into the auditorium with her and kept asking, "What happened after the questioning? What happened?"

"They almost got into conflict." Padma said.

"They? Who?" Zoe didn't want Hermione to be involved.

"Potter, Potter, and the new professor. The new professor deducted Gryffindor's points, and then Potter's companions stopped him. He seemed to be yelling at the time, but he didn't say anything."

"This is a good thing." Zoe breathed a sigh of relief. Umbridge's teaching at Hogwarts was an unprecedented disaster. If it wasn't for lack of authority and unrealistic operation, Zoe always felt that they would be more willing. Even the students' wands were taken away, because a rebel with a wand and no wand are two different things, and the Ministry of Magic doesn't care whether these dangers are just their own imagination.

Without a magic wand and no spells, there is no way to resist.If the Ministry of Magic is determined to invade Hogwarts, then they will certainly not be satisfied with having the right to dictate in a certain class, even if Hogwarts has a long history of independence and freedom, at least from this moment on. , It will start to change.

"Knocking before entering is a basic etiquette, Siegel."

Zoe pushed aside the office that used to be the former Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. Umbridge naturally used it as an office, but probably only Gidro Lockhart’s extremely narcissistic office layout can match The colorful space full of "girly feelings" in front of me is comparable (of course in a negative sense).

The undisguised nausea on Zoe's face must have been caught by Umbridge, but she was not angry at all, or she didn't show it when she was angry.Umbridge was sitting behind the desk (with a fiery red, lace tablecloth on it), and there were many things stacked on the desk that were not known to be documents or envelopes.

"I miss you very much, Siegel. When you are there, I feel more happy and more productive than ever." She stood up with a smile and welcomed him, "I miss both of us very much. Then I suddenly discovered: I am your guardian, I can certainly ask you for help when I am in trouble. Even if you and I do not have this relationship, you, as the prefect and the assistant of the professors to maintain discipline, must I won't leave the commission of this busy poor woman, right?"

Chapter 39 The First Day (Part 2)

Zoe didn't reply with his arms, just sneered to see that she could talk vigorously by herself.

"Have you done any official duties for Principal Dumbledore before?" Umbridge sat down again and asked lightly.

"No." Zoe replied coldly, "Will you be willing to tell me the confidential information? Don't say some jokes that neither you nor I would take it seriously? What do you want to do when you come to me?"

"Of course it is to help with these letters." She pointed with her magic wand, and the snow-white envelopes flew to the table in front of Zoe one by one. "I originally wanted to deal with it by myself, but you did what I asked The activity you did... But I think just letting you read them aloud will not make you realize the truth and justice in your heart, so I decided to deepen your memory: these things need a copy, you hand the letter Copy it down and... we can do the rest later."

Zoe gritted her teeth. Umbridge said these words not to seek her opinion. She took out the quill and ink from the bag, and Umbridge sent the clean letter paper that hadn’t been written on. ."I'll give you two hours. You must write at least twenty letters. Be sure to write them correctly. Show them to me before you leave."

For the time when she hadn’t realized Umbridge’s sadistic nature, if Umbridge told Zoe that she had to write twenty long letters in two hours, then she would probably choose to put these things Throwing a brain on Umbridge's face, she still wants to do it even now, but she is even more reluctant to show weakness to the woman in front of her.

"There is no chair for me, is it?" Zoe looked around, then took out his wand and changed it for himself.Umbridge looked up at her, and then when she was about to sit down, she took out her wand and turned the chair back.

"I didn't let you sit down, Siegel." Umbridge looked at the tip of the wand, "I'm not here for you to enjoy, or I will prepare drinks and snacks for you myself. You look like you will sooner or later. Falling asleep and standing and working are better for you to stay awake. Please."

Zoe took the first envelope. The address on it was probably from a witch named Julie in a wizard's family. Without opening it, Zoe could guess what was written inside.Sure enough, as soon as I opened the letter, I saw the second row, and the attack on Dumbledore began in the letter.

"The high-ranking person can't continue to be responsible for his actions, and try to involve others and hurt them, then we shouldn't let him stay in that position anymore." This kind of remark is still very relaxed and neutral. When Zoe writes this, he just needs to bring the image directly into the Ministry of Magic.

But when the letter inevitably appeared in the letter such as "Kill the old liar who deceived the world!", "I heard that he was crazy. Before he went crazy and attacked others, send him to Saint Mungo. Go." Or lower, direct swear words, those insults and mockery of Dumbledore flooded in, even if you were so angry that you wanted to tear all these things to pieces, you had to endure them word by word. Copy it down.

Throw the paper discarded by shaking hands and throw it aside. There are already several similar waste paper balls around. If the people who wrote these letters really exist and are standing in front of Zoe, they must To pay the price for this, she didn't write a sentence, the sentence seemed to be engraved in her heart, the anger accumulated in her throat, but there was no way to vent it.

Umbridge used a similar method before, asking her to read out those letters and read out the contents of those letters that insulted her precious family members, as if they were trampling on Zoe’s own dignity, let alone. Said this old pervert now actually asked her to copy them again.

Zira.Zoe accidentally tore the corner of a letter, and she swayed, trying to make herself stand more stable.There was a blur in front of her eyes, because of the constant anger, after the storm in her mind swept through, only a high degree of fatigue remained.With correct writing, she raised her head and glanced at Umbridge. She was doing official business.

When the height of the waste paper ball on hand exceeded the good finished products, Umbridge raised his head, the smile on his face made people irritable."Time is up, Siegel. How are you doing?" Before Zoe could answer, she waved her magic wand and the letters on the table flew back to her table.

"Not so good, not at all..." Umbridge shook his head as he read the letter, "I ask you to'handwriting properly', but your things are not up to my requirements... Your eyes are not very friendly."

Zoe took a deep breath with shaking, his eyes flushed.Umbridge really knows how to make a person feel humiliated. If she punishes her physically, or insults her, she will never achieve such an effect.But she identified Zoe's weakness, she understood that Dumbledore was Zoe's family, teacher, and even faith, and Umbridge needed her to trample on this feeling.

"You know what to do." Umbridge pointed to the wand in Zoe's hand. "Come, take it and point to me." She said seductively, and waved her wand as long as Zoe was wrong. , She can find a reason to really hurt her.

There was indeed a voice echoing in Zoe's mind. She really wanted to cast an Unforgivable Curse on her loudly. Her sanity was already weak. Fatigue and anger were constantly weakening the bondage. She was shaking, her wand was just about to relax. Lift up slowly.

There was a knock on the door, and the dull sound exploded in Zoe's ears like thunder.She wiped away the cold sweat from her forehead in fear, and Umbridge looked at the entrance with dissatisfaction."Please come in."

Dumbledore's figure appeared from behind the door, with a gentle and polite smile on his face."Oh, what's the matter, Principal? I'll trouble you to run to me all night." Umbridge suddenly showed the kind of intense and hypocritical enthusiasm on his face, and stood up to meet Dumbledore.

"Of course, Professor Umbridge, I have something." Dumbledore said. He usually calls the staff by names, but there is an accident here."Regarding some of the duties, I think as the principal, I still need to explain to you. Because the ministry sent people in a hurry, we have not had a more formal conversation, and this is also Hogwarts. One of the traditions-if you have not planned to sleep yet?"

"No problem, principal. I would love to talk to you. Our minister is so enthusiastic that I didn't even have a positive conversation with you. Of course I want to integrate into this school faster. Carrying out education has a very positive impact-if you don't mind, we can also talk about the indifferent attitude of the faculty and staff to new colleagues..." She prepared a space for conversation, with a warm smirk on her face.

"Treat people with sincerity, and people treat you with sincerity." Dumbledore didn't care about Umbridge's frozen smile, as if he had only seen Zoe just now, "Zoe did she commit anything?"

"Of course not, she is a very good student. It's just that the principal, you also know-I just came here and I can't handle the work a little bit, so I asked Siegel to help me with some tasks. She is really good. You see, it took only two hours to copy so many important letters for me."

Umbridge looked at Dumbledore: "Do you think I can let Siegel help me with my work?"

"Madam, you have to ask the person's opinion." Dumbledore replied.

"Then you are willing to help me with things tomorrow, Siegel?" Umbridge said, "Of course, just after class. I also hope you can help me write back to these letters, you know, I just I'm too busy dealing with official duties, and I have to prepare the content of the next course." Zoe nodded reluctantly.

"Great, you really are a good boy!" Umbridge stepped forward and tried to pat Zoe on the shoulder, but she avoided it resistingly."When shall we start the conversation, principal? Sleeping late will be a bit inconvenient for women's skin..." Dumbledore replied that she could start now.

"Dumbledore, I..." Zoe stood by the door, trying to say something."Go back and rest, you must have not slept well, Zoe, know that everything needs a process, don't worry, dawn will always come." Dumbledore sat on the small sofa prepared for him by Umbridge , Turned around and said comfortingly.

"Will you have afternoon tea with me next time?" Dumbledore winked at her.

"If you have good tea and delicious snacks." Zoe finally showed him a sincere smile.

Chapter 40 The Mission of the Envoy (Part 1)

"One, two, three-thank God!" With the cheers of the men, the shadows on the ground trembled and deformed violently. An off-road vehicle stepped on the accelerator and finally left the deep seat that had been holding its rear wheel. pit.When the car stopped, the man got out of the driver's seat with a smile of surprise and gratitude on his face.

"Thank you so much, sir. Our family has wasted about this morning because of this problem. If it weren't for your great help... You must know that this place is a little far away from the road and the signal is not very good. God knows that we will wait for the trailer company to receive it. Call and come over again, we probably won’t be able to get to Dijon until late at night.” He shook the other’s big hand tightly, and finally managed to hold back the painful expression in front of his daughter who was poking his head out the window. When people shook hands with him, he almost thought that his hand bones were about to be crushed.

"You are really strong... just call me Oscar." Oscar pointed to the woman who was talking with someone not far away, "That's my wife Jane, and the little angel in the car is my daughter Ruth, four years old. ."

"Uh...Rubber Hagrid." Oscar found the big man in front of him in a daze, as if he couldn't understand some of the things he said. Of course, Oscar noticed that the opponent was staring straight at his SUV."How about it, Hagrid. Is this big guy cool? I insisted on buying it at the time. Jane later said that I was many times, but my little princess liked her armored knight very much." Oscar proudly flaunted. I'm used to the envious look of men at his car, although the look of this man looks strange...

"Not bad. It reminds me of borrowing a motorcycle from a friend before. Can it fly?" Hagrid regretted it as soon as he said this, because the Muggle in front of him showed an incredible expression, "Uh , I mean, it’s as fast as flying, and I don’t speak very much...thought out."

"I like this description, it sounds cool... of course, of course. If I step on the accelerator to the end, I think it will feel like flying, but it's too dangerous, at least it won't be my wife and daughter sitting in it. The experience that you should have when you are in the country." Oscar said, "I understand. The safety of the family is always the most important." Hagrid agreed.

"Really, thank you again, Hagrid. If it weren't because you happened to pass by here, and would be happy to help our family... you know that we can't get the car out of the pit just because of our husband and wife."

"We also happened to be passing by... Traveling, just to help... Just put some effort." Hagrid looked to the other side again, and Oscar asked with a smile when he noticed it."Your husband and wife are also traveling?"

"Wh, husband, husband and wife?!" Hagrid's face turned red. Even though he always wears a mess of large beards, he can still see that he is embarrassed at a glance, "Olim and I look very similar. Husband and wife?" He scratched his hair."You guys look really good." Oscar's words are not a compliment. You must know that most men can't stand up straight and look at Olim Maxim. She is too tall and taller than the average female body. The form is even bigger (even if her manners are really elegant).

Hagrid touched his chin, feeling a little confused."Are you a suitor of that elegant lady, do you go out with her? I dare say that since she is willing to agree to the invitation, you must have a chance, it's not small. Ladies won't work hard on people who don't like me."
