Chapter 424

"It's not you!" Before the students were gone, Hermione came to Solim without packing up her things.

"What's not me?" said Solim, pretending to be stupid.

"That spell, don't play stupid!" Hermione looked down at Solim, "Don't forget, you taught us how to determine the direction of a spell." There are so many students in front of me, Umbridge sits on the podium, and if she uses a spell on me, it will only hit the students in front of me, and only you can hit me without obstacles. "

"It's a lot better to be able to hit you without being distracted by obstacles. Solim dropped the stuff in his bag, "Why me?"

Harry and Neville arrived, and Ron followed them.

"Why are you stopping me?" Hermione didn't dwell too much on, and asked the question she wanted to figure out the most.

"Why did you stop you? To prevent you from doing stupid things, of course. "

"'Doing something stupid'?" Hermione stared at Solim.

"Okay, okay. Solim stood up, and by this time there were no other students in the classroom, and Umbridge had left, and with a wave of his wand, Solim slammed the door shut.

"Since you have to ask, I'll tell you. Solim sat down on the table.

"I don't need you to say it, I know what you're up to. If you're just wondering why Umbridge or the Ministry of Magic chose such a textbook, I can tell you right now: they don't want their students to practice their magic skills, or rather, they don't want them to be able to resist the dark arts. "

"How is this possible!" Hermione was startled by Solim's words, "why would they do this?"

"Do you know who Umbridge is?"

"The Senior Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Magic, and now our professor. Hermione replied honestly.

"And where does she stand?" Solim asked again, "Do you know which side she's on?"

Now that Solim has already asked, the answer to this question is already very obvious.

"Then why did Professor Dumbledore agree to her coming to Hogwarts?" said Harry, who had put his bag on the table, always carrying a strange tiredness.

"You have to make it clear that the appointment of professors and headmasters is decided by the Hogwarts Board of Trustees, and the headmaster's opinion can only be used as a reference, and the final decision is still in the hands of the Board of Directors, or rather, in the hands of the rotating head. Solim explained, "and the Hogwarts Board ...... Well, I remember what I told you, and if you do, you should know who they are -- or rather, most of them. "

Several of the Gryffindors looked at Draco together.

"It has nothing to do with Malfoy's family. Solim said, "This year's rotating leader is Nott—Harry, do you still remember that last name?"

Harry nodded, of course he had an impression of the name, it was the first time he had seen someone tortured by the Mind Curse live, and that man's son was in the same grade as him.

"A Death Eater turned out to be a director of Hogwarts...... It's probably the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. Hermione shook her head as she spoke.

"So now you'd better have a point in your hearts and don't mess with that woman. Give her excuses and reasons, and she can start causing trouble. Don't you want to know what she's doing at Hogwarts?" Solim looked at Hermione, "I can tell you: Umbridge is a woman who came to Hogwarts to draw Dumbledore's energy. "

"The Ministry of Magic is not monolithic, no one can say how many people are Death Eaters in it, most of the seats on the Hogwarts Board of Directors are also related to Death Eaters, and now the Ministry of Magic and the Board of Directors have Umbridge in it...... Be honest this semester and don't mess with Dumbledore. "

Solim stood up with his bag in his hand and said, "Dumbledore has to focus most of his energy on the outside and part of it on the school now, so don't waste his energy, be honest." "

"Are we not going to do anything?" Harry's evil fire came out again, "You know that toad-like woman she is going to ......"

"Tell me, then, what are you going to do?" Solim stopped and turned to look at Harry, "Kill her at school? If you kill her, it will fix the matter, and trust me, Umbridge won't make it to Hogwarts at all." It's not about Umbridge, you know?"

Solim's gaze swept over the scar on Harry's forehead, which looked the same as usual, all the same ugly.

Hermione tugged at Harry's robe, "Calm down, Harry. "

"I think you should really thank me. Solim said, "If I hadn't stopped Hermione's childish move, you might as well think about what you'd be like now." "

Harry didn't understand what Solim meant, and Hermione watched from the sidelines, a little upset that Solim had defined her actions as childish.

"Don't understand? Solim looked at Hermione, "What are you going to say to Umbridge if she can't help it in the end?" Are you going to question her way of teaching?"

"Can't I?" Hermione said, "Defence Against the Dark Arts doesn't involve any spells, do you think that's normal?"

"If she's going to use restrictive spells like the Imperius Charm on you like last semester, then we as students can question it. Solim said, "But why should you question normal teaching activities? Just because she made us read books in class? Although the content of this book is very boring, it is not a reason for you to question her." "

Seeing that Hermione wanted to speak, Solim raised his hand to stop her.

"Also, as long as she's going about her normal teaching activities, then any questions and objections you raise are null and void, do you understand? Umbridge has the support of the Ministry of Magic and the Hogwarts Board of Directors, and as long as she doesn't leave her behind, Dumbledore can't find fault with her. "

Solim was dumbfounded by Hermione's words, as long as Umbridge did what he did in accordance with the rules of the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts, then Hermione's actions would not cause her to do anything but cause trouble for herself.

"Umbridge has been in the Ministry of Magic for more than a decade, and you think your methods are as good as hers?" Solim said, "She'll use words to provoke you into making mistakes, and then she'll have an excuse to attack the Hogwarts teaching system, understand?"

"And you're going to involve Harry. Solim looked at Harry on the side and said, "Now that you are impulsive and irritable, Umbridge can provoke you casually." So please be steady, don't get into a head-on confrontation with that woman, it's not good for you. "
