Chapter 478

"I dare say, you must have thought it would be nice if you hadn't given up your divination class by now, wouldn't you, Hermione?" said Parvati smugly as she walked past Hermione after dinner.

"Not really. Hermione said calmly, "I'm not interested in divination at all—whoever teaches it." "

The location of the event has been announced, and the students who have recently signed the parchment have become closer – there is a common secret to keep, which can really increase the distance between them.

"Well, Professor Trelawney—Lavender and I went to see her in her office before dinner, poor man. Parvati sighed and said, "We'll give her a few yellow daffodils—beautiful ones, not the ones that Sprout would call." "

"Is she okay then?" asked Harry, beside him.

"Not so good. Parvati shook her head, "she cried, and with Umbridge here, she would rather leave the castle." I don't blame her at all, Umbridge is too overbearing to her, isn't it?"

"I have a feeling that Umbridge's domineering is just getting started. Hermione said gloomily.

"It can't be, she's already bad, she can't be worse!" said Parvati.

"Take my word to heart, Dumbledore appointed a new teacher without asking her for advice, and she'll get revenge," Hermione said, closing the newspaper, "not to mention that there are already three and a half humans at Hogwarts." You can see the look on Umbridge's face when she sees Ferenze. "

Prof. Fliwick, Hagrid...... Uh, Professor, she is still of human blood, and although Professor Babling of the Demon Pattern class is not pure human blood, her identity is very special, and Umbridge has never dealt with her, but Ferenze is a fake centaur, and Umbridge will definitely make a move.

"Okay, let's go one by one, don't get together, then Umbridge will be suspicious. When she got to the portrait of the fat lady, Hermione explained to Parvati again.

Tonight was their first time together, and both Hermione and Harry were nervous and excited. Harry, they sat in the corner of the common room, looking at the map over and over again, confirming Umbridge's location.

"Honestly, buddy, this thing is so good!" Ron looked enviously at the map in Harry's hand, "I remember you told me that this thing was left behind by your father and Sirius, right?"

"That's right. Harry's eyes were still on the map for the names of anyone who might hinder their actions tonight, "But it was in Solim's hands, and he gave me the Living Point Map as a gift last time for my birthday." "

At half-past seven, the four of Harry were the first to leave the Gryffindor common room, Harry holding the map of the living spots. Although the fifth-graders could stay in the hallway until nine, they were nervous as the three of them walked to the eighth floor.

"Wait. At the top of the stairs Harry warned, "I think it's better to determine where they are." "

"Filch is on the third floor," Harry held up the map to his eyes and looked at it closely, "Umbridge was in her office. "

"Very well, let's go. Ron rubbed his hands together.

They quickly made their way down the hallway to the place they had been last time, in front of a large tapestry depicting Barnabas trying to teach trolls ballet, opposite a stretch of white wall. Last time Harry had already learned how to properly open the Room of Requirement, and this time they went in with ease, the same room as last time - the same furnishings, the same decorations, the same size.

On the wall was a wooden bookshelf, and there were no chairs on the floor, but large satin cushions. On the shelf at the other end of the room were speculums, spinners, and a large cracked mirror that Harry was sure had hung in Barty Jr.'s office last year.

The others hadn't arrived yet, and Harry and they had to wait a little longer, Hermione pulled a book from the shelf and sat down on the cushion to read, while Ron and Neville began to walk around the room, although they had been here last time, but it was still fresh for a short time.

There was a soft knock on the door, and Harry turned to see that Ginny, Parvati, and Dean had arrived.

"Wow," Dean exclaimed, looking around, "what is this place?"

Harry began to explain, but before he could finish speaking, someone came in again, so he had to start from the beginning. At eight o'clock, there were people sitting on each mat. Harry walked to the door, turned the key on the lock, and let out a satisfying click, and everyone fell silent to look at him.

"Well," Harry was a little nervous, "that's the place we've found, and everybody—well, I mean—judging by the looks on your faces, you're pretty satisfied." "

"Wonderful!" Dean said, a few whispering in agreement.

"It's weird," Fred frowned, looking around, "we got away from Filch here, George, remember? "

George looked at Harry, "How did you know about this room?"

"Hmm...... We were helped by a friend who told us how to get into the room properly. Sensing Harry's gaze, Hermione explained, "By the way, this room is called the 'Room of Requirement'. "

The twins looked at each other, shrugged their shoulders and didn't speak.

"Hey, Harry, what is this?" Dean asked, pointing to the speculum and demon mirror in the back row.

"Dark magic detectors," Harry walked over from between the mats, "they're generally used to show if there's a dark wizard or enemy activity nearby, but don't rely too much on these instruments, they can be deceived. He looked into the cracked mirror for a moment, and there was a faint figure moving, but he couldn't really see it.

He ignored it again.

"I've consulted with Hermione before, but we'd like to hear from you. Harry glanced at Hermione, then said, "Hermione thinks we need a name - you know, it's better to keep people out there so we don't see what we're up to, so we can safely mention it outside." "

Everyone suddenly erupted with enthusiasm that Harry hadn't expected.

"How about calling it the Anti-Umbridge Alliance?" Dean said excitedly.

"It's not bad that the Ministry of Magic is a stupid group. Fred said with a smile.

Seeing that the names were getting more and more outrageous, Hermione had to stand up and say the name she had already thought of: "Defense Society, don't forget, we need to be able to talk about it safely in the outside world, Defense Society—D.A. for short, what do you think?"

"This sounds good, much better than some people's. Ginny glanced at her two shapeless brothers, "And D.A. can also represent Dumbledore's Army, I think this will keep Umbridge awake." "

There was a burst of appreciative laughter in the room.

When Hermione said the name, Harry and Ron were nervous, and they both thought of "vomiting", but fortunately, this time Hermione's name was finally normal.
