Chapter 516 Twenty-four Teachings

Chapter 516: Twenty-Four Teachings
Xie Ling spent the rest of the weekend quite leisurely.

On Saturday evening, all the students went back from Hogsmeade Village, but Shaylin chose to stay in the Flower Dew Cottage and continue to spend time with Fleur. Anyway, he had a secret passage to Hogwarts Castle, so as long as he returned to school before Monday morning, no one could control him.

Furong was naturally very happy. The two of them cherished their time together and did many happy things together. For example, Furong made some French desserts in the kitchen and Xie Lin helped her. Also, Furong snuggled in Xie Lin's arms and the two of them watched the sunset together on the roof.

Harry, meanwhile, was feeling very happy too. Although he and Ron had spent a good deal of time on Sunday catching up on their homework, the last bright sunshine of autumn was still shining, so instead of hunching over their desks in the common room, they took their homework outside and sat under a large beech tree by the lake.

Harry felt great satisfaction when he thought that they were rebelling against Umbridge and the Ministry of Magic, and that he was the key figure in the rebellion, and that everyone, including Hermione and Ron, had to listen to him.

What he didn't know was that his ambitions and desires were also growing secretly without his knowledge.

Hermione had already finished her homework, of course, and was now reading a book called Curses and Counterspells by Vindictus Viridian. The quill beside her was enchanted, flying rapidly across the parchment, recording the various defensive magic spells that were suitable for Harry's student organization to learn.

She was very serious about the planning of this defense organization, much more serious than Harry and Ron. She had to prove her wisdom and talent, and also find a way to fight against Umbridge's authority in her own way.

In Hogwarts, in terms of reputation and popularity among students, Shaylin is already the undisputed number one in Hogwarts, but Hermione does not believe that this is an unshakable fact. As long as the method is right, she may not be unable to establish another flag among the students. And Harry, the rumored "savior", is the person she chose.

She just didn't believe it. With her strategy and planning, and Ron's help, and Harry's natural reputation was their greatest asset, plus the three of them had a deep friendship and had fought side by side for many years, the Harry trio would never lose to that Shailene Malfoy.

……

On the morning of Monday, October 10, Schelling returned to the castle from the secret passage an hour ago. When he was about to go to the hall for dinner, a large group of people gathered near the bulletin board not far from the main entrance of the hall.

They were pointing at the bulletin board and seemed to be discussing something.

The new notice was printed in large bold letters, with an official-looking seal underneath and a neatly cursive signature next to it.

The content is as follows:

"Hogwarts High Inquisitor's Order

All student organizations, associations, teams and clubs are hereby disbanded.

Organizations, associations, teams and clubs are defined as regular gatherings of three or more students. Reorganization may be requested from the Senior Inquisitor (Professor Umbridge). No student organization, association, team or club may exist without the approval of the Senior Inquisitor. Any student found to have formed or joined any organization, association, team or club without the approval of the Senior Inquisitor will be expelled immediately.

The above regulations are in compliance with the "Education Order No. 24".

- Dolores Jane Umbridge, High Inquisitor at Hogwarts

Sherin saw the group of people who came out of the Hog's Head that day. They were led by Harry and Ron, gathered together and talked a lot. Harry and Ron seemed to be very angry.

Sherin smiled. "Dumbledore's Army" had just been established for one day and it had already been discovered by Umbridge. Now it remained to be seen how Hermione would lead two useless men to overcome the first difficulty of "Dumbledore's Army".

Everything developed as Schelling had expected. As long as Dumbledore's Army was captured by Umbridge, Dumbledore would be forced to leave Hogwarts. Without Dumbledore in charge, the next stage of his plan could officially begin.

As for the impact on Mianlong Society?
Stop talking nonsense. As early as when the Dragon Society was founded, it was operated as an underground secret organization. Although the Dragon Society now has 87 members, he controls at least five secret bases, including the Ravenclaw Chamber of Secrets, Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, Merlin Chamber of Secrets, the Suitcase Space, and the Miracle Alchemy Workshop Cellar. It is more flexible than the so-called cunning rabbit with three burrows. He doesn't believe that Umbridge can do anything to him.

During breakfast, Sherin heard from the students next to him that the Quidditch team was also under the jurisdiction of Education Order No. 24. In other words, all the Quidditch teams of the colleges were disbanded, and the captains needed to apply to Umbridge for reorganization.

Schelling didn't take this matter to heart. Draco should be able to handle it on his own. This was also one of the tests for him as captain, and there was no need for Schelling to intervene.

In Gryffindor, Angelina was about to go crazy. She begged Harry desperately at the Gryffindor table to stop disobeying Umbridge, otherwise the Gryffindor Quidditch team might miss the season.

Harry and Ron were also shocked to learn about this, and Harry had no choice but to promise Angelina that he would be careful about his words and actions.

But he soon forgot his promise.

In the History of Magic class, when Professor Binns was calmly reading his lecture on the War of Giants, Harry suddenly saw his owl by the window with a serious injury on its wing. He left with the owl in a hurry to find Hagrid for treatment, but he didn't expect that Hagrid was not at home at all.

In desperation, Harry could only go to the school hospital to ask for some medical gauze, and hurriedly bandaged the owl.

The anger in his heart was ignited again.

He remembered that Hermione had said that Filch would not suspect him of ordering dung eggs for no reason, and that someone must have wanted to use this as an excuse to intercept his letters.

The first suspect was Umbridge, professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

He had no way to vent the anger in his heart and felt very uncomfortable suppressing it.

The scar on his forehead was throbbing, and every throbbing brought him a severe headache. He could also hear strange wild beast calls in his ears, which made him even more irritated.

What he didn't know was that his eyes had already turned into snake pupils, flashing dangerous light.

Fortunately, Ron and Hermione found Harry after class, and they took great pains to calm him down.

The three of them went to Hagrid's Hut together and finally found the distraught Hagrid at the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

"Hey, Hagrid," the short-sighted Ron was the first to greet.

"Are you okay, Hagrid?" Harry asked in a low voice with a sinking heart when he saw Hagrid's appearance.

"Fine, fine," said Hagrid, with mock gaiety. "Just busy, you know, with the same old stuff - preparing lessons - a couple of salamanders got their scales rotten - I kept them for observation," he muttered.

"What!" Harry couldn't accept this bad news again, "How could this happen?"

"Yeah," said Hagrid, "to be honest, that's to be expected. You may not understand, but the results of that survey were not good... never mind." He sighed, "I'll have to put some more chili powder on the salamanders, or their tails will fall off too."

"Damn it, it's all that hag's fault," Hermione said bitterly.

Several people silently accompanied Hagrid as he applied chili powder to the salamanders, and then Hagrid also re-bandaged Harry's owl.

Then, the three of them returned to the castle with heavy steps again.
