Chapter 409
"Event...... Probably not. Solim thought for a moment and said, "But...... Well, don't be afraid of what I'm going to say next. "
"Afraid?" Sylna tilted her head, "We're all professionally trained wizards, so we won't be afraid." "
Draco poked his head behind the book.
"Next semester, we'll meet a disgusting woman......"
"Disgusting woman?" Sylna looked at her brother suspiciously, "Who is it?"
"Dolores. Umbridge. "
"Umbridge?" Sylna thought for a moment, feeling that the name was a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it for a while.
"Oh—you mean the vice president of the Pharmacists' Guild? the one who invented the test solvent?"
"That's Sarich!" Solim said, "Also, Saric is a wizard!"
"Oh, I mean, how did the Vice President of the Apothecary Guild come to Hogwarts. Silna waved her hand nonchalantly.
"And who is this Umbridge you're talking about?"
"Not one! The senior deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic knows?"
"Got it, you go on. "I don't know if Sylna really understands or not.
"She's on the Death Eater side now, so be wary of that and don't expose too much in front of her. "
"Ho...... Ahem. Draco seemed to choke suddenly.
Solim looked back just in time to see the corners of Draco's mouth that had just been pursed into a line—it had just turned up.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Uh...... I thought of something happy about. Draco put the book down.
"What's the joy of what?"
"My Iron Armor Charm can now choose the direction of the Reflection Charm. "
"And what are you laughing at?" Solim turned his gaze to his sister.
Sylna put down the hand that was covering her mouth and said, "My Transfiguration has made new progress. "
"I'm not kidding you!"
"Okay, let's get down to business, you talk about that disgusting woman - what did she do to you?" Sylna couldn't help but laugh.
"It's not a question of what happened to me with her – it's ...... She's really that kind of ...... The kind that is rare...... She likes to wear a pink cardigan and pinch her voice to learn the tone of a little girl when she speaks......"
"Poof......" Silna couldn't hold back and laughed.
"What are you laughing at!"
"Ahem...... I thought of something happy about. "
"You're laughing all the time!
"Well, since you think it's a serious matter, go ahead and say, I won't laugh anymore, no matter how funny it is—unless I can't help it. "
Sylna adjusted her expression, looking serious.
"Wait a minute," Draco said, "You said Umbridge would be coming to Hogwarts next term?"
"What did you just do? I said at the beginning that she was coming to Hogwarts next semester!"
"Uh...... I've seen Umbridge, though her ...... Well, the image is really not very good, and many people also have opinions about her. But she's a senior undersecretary of the Ministry of Magic anyway, so how could she go to Hogwarts, and in what capacity would she stay at Hogwarts?"
"Professor, of course. Solim said, "This woman's performance at this hearing shows that she and Dumbledore are not in the same group, and that she will not have any good intentions when she goes to Hogwarts." "
"In that case...... He's the Headmaster, and the appointment of a professor as Headmaster of Hogwarts has power......
Before Sylna could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Solim:
"The Headmaster of Hogwarts only has the right to recommend. Solim shook his head, "The final decision is in the hands of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Board of Trustees, and as long as the board agrees, the Headmaster can't interfere with their decision." That's why Dumbledore had to go so hard to find the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor: he had to fight with the people on the board. "
The board members behind Hogwarts are all pure-bloods, and they provide Hogwarts with a large amount of money every year to support the school's daily expenses: food, supplies, maintenance of the building, procurement of raw materials, salaries of faculty and staff...... All the places that need to spend money are funded by the board of directors.
Since they were all pure-blood wizards, it was inevitable that most of the board members would be somewhat biased in favor of the Death Eaters, which led to one consequence: after Voldemort's return, these people's positions became very nuanced. Had it not been for the consent of the majority of the board of directors, Umbridge would not have been able to enter Hogwarts.
"But I remember that the rotating head of the board of directors has a veto power...... Draco knows this very well, after all, he is a director of the board of directors, and the rotating head of their second year is Lucius. If he had the support of the rotating head, it would have been easier for Dumbledore to deal with the school's affairs - for example, hiring Lupin, a werewolf, as a professor, had relied on that year's rotating head, a director named Longbottom. If it were replaced by a person like Lucius, it would definitely not work.
"Do you know which family this year's rotating head is?" Solim asked Draco.
Draco listened to Solim's words and began to snap his fingers, counting them one by one......
"Noether ......"
"Isn't that the end of this?" Solim looked at Draco, "You should know exactly what 'ingredients' are in that classmate's house, right?"
A Death Eater has the status of a member of the Hogwarts Board of Directors, and if Voldemort is still in the same state as he used to be, it is fine. But now that Voldemort is back, if he doesn't use this identity to block Dumbledore, is he still a Death Eater?
That is to say...... The woman with the surname Umbridge could be said to be in a sense the Death Eater's eyeliner at Hogwarts?or, more bluntly, the spy that the man planted next to Dumbledore?" Sylna finally stopped smiling, and she realized the gravity of the matter.
"Not a spy. Solim shook his head, "Not all kinds of people are qualified to be spies, in my opinion, this Umbridge is a disgusting person who came to Hogwarts, and having her to do things at Hogwarts can involve some of Dumbledore's energy - after all, Umbridge's identity and position cannot be hidden from our Headmaster." With such a disgusting thing at Hogwarts, Dumbledore still had to devote some of his attention to her. "
"And what does she teach?" Draco smelled.
"Are you a fool?" Sylna looked at him with disgust, "What else can she teach besides Defence Against the Dark Arts class?"
"That's the end of it...... Draco said dejectedly, "I'll bet you - ten Galleons." We're definitely going to be done with the dark magic next semester. "
