Nan Shan Dou Xi
Harry was cornered.
"What are you doing in my office?" Umbridge's face was always twitching unconsciously because he had been bitten by a dog.
This made her already slack old face even more ferocious.
"I-I want my Firebolt back," Harry said hoarsely.
"lie!"
Umbridge looked very agitated, and aimed her wand at the five.
"I just heard, who are you talking to?"
Umbridge twitched her cheeks, and she lost even that artificial smile, and said sharply, "You're talking to that big man!"
"No, I didn't."
Harry wanted to retort, but Umbridge wouldn't take it.
She stepped forward and grabbed Harry by the collar, throwing him onto the table with a thud.
Feeling a surge of anger, Harry reached for his wand in his pocket.
With sharp eyes, Umbridge snatched the wand away in advance and held it in his hand.
"Don't try to lie." Umbridge swung Harry's wand aside.
"You don't care who I talk to!" Harry growled.
"Very well, I gave you a chance, Mr. Potter." Umbridge said hypocritically in that annoying whining voice, "I have no choice but to force your mouth open."
Pointing her wand at Harry, she went to the desk and opened the drawer.
Seeing the empty bottle inside, her cheeks twitched again, she caught a glimpse of the cat plate on the table out of the corner of her eye, and shot at Ginny.
"Expelliarmus"
The wand that Ginny took out bounced off and landed in Umbridge's hand.
Not only that, even the wands of other people flew out.
"You're still trying to attack me?" Umbridge let out that nasty laugh. "You're all going to be fired now."
Her eyes lingered on the two redheads for a moment, "The next Weasley student is gone."
Ginny glared at her angrily, and Ron was even more surprised that his sister was so bold.
But in front of an adult wizard, Ginny was still caught.
Umbridge pointed to the parchment on the table with his wand, and the quill automatically wrote on it.
"Professor Snape, please come to the office, I caught Potter."
After writing a sentence, the parchment folded automatically, turning into a paper airplane and flying out.
"Next, we have a lot of time to talk slowly." Umbridge said.
Harry's expression became a little dull.
Snape, yes, Snape!
He forgot, he even forgot, there was another member of the Order of the Phoenix.
Snape walked in with a grim expression, and Harry could even see...sadness on his face?
"If you have nothing to do," Snape said coldly, "I don't think I have that much time to worry about what Potter does."
He said so, but Snape still came over.
"I want another bottle of Veritaserum, the sooner the better, Professor Snape." Umbridge's face twitched, but he still forced a smile.
"You took my last bottle for interrogation." Snape glanced at several people in the office. "It only takes three drops to make a person tell all the secrets."
Harry's eyes widened, meeting his gaze, trying to make it read his inner thoughts.
"You can concoct some more, can't you?" Umbridge was desperate for revenge.
"It will take a lunar cycle," said Snape impatiently. "You can wait."
"I still have the right to rate you." Umbridge directly threatened.
Snape turned indifferently and was about to leave, his steps hurried.
Harry yelled, "He's got Padfoot! In that hiding place!"
Snape paused slightly, then left even faster.
"Padfoot? Good, good." Umbridge panted like a bull when he saw Snape go.
"You forced me to do this," Umbridge said with a grim expression. "Using the Cruciatus Curse should allow you to say it."
"Wait, Harry, we'll just have to tell her," Hermione yelled anxiously.
Harry stared at Hermione with wide eyes, not expecting Hermione to say that.
Even Ron and the others couldn't believe it. Ron wanted to tell Hermione not to say anything, but when Umbridge's wand pointed at him, he fell down.
"Hagrid, Hagrid wants us to go to the Forbidden Forest, where he has something for Dumbledore."
"Something, what is it?" Umbridge was taken aback for a moment, and then his eyes were filled with surprise.
She has always wanted to make a contribution to Dumbledore, and if it can be confirmed that Dumbledore wants to harm the Ministry of Magic, then she will receive unprecedented attention.
"Wu, weapon." Hermione buried her face in her hands, sobbing.
But Ron could clearly see the corners of her mouth curled up.
Umbridge couldn't wait to do the work, and she said, "Show me that weapon."
Hermione was trembling, and Umbridge was very satisfied. She pointed her wand at Ron and the three of them, and the three of them were bound by the flying rope.
"Now, you go with me and Potter," Umbridge warned. "Don't try to play tricks!"
Harry didn't know what Hermione was talking about, but he knew that now he could only follow Hermione's words.
Two people were held hostage and walked out of the office.
Umbridge's face twitched from time to time, and sometimes he barked out of his mouth.
Hermione and Harry walked ahead, and they looked at each other.
I hope some professor will show up on the way.
It's a pity that everyone is not here at this time.
Both wands had been thrown again, and now they were no match for Umbridge at all.
Soon they left the castle and reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest.
"Where the hell is it?" Umbridge snapped.
Hermione pretended to be timid and said, "Forbidden Forest, it's in the Forbidden Forest, that weapon is too powerful."
Umbridge was dubious, but the thought of taking Dumbledore down just kept her going.
The two walked ahead, and Harry was eager to ask what the plan was.
Hermione said loudly that she was going to use the centaurs against Umbridge.
However, do not know why.
It seems that because of the last time, none of the horsemen showed up.
This made Hermione a little anxious.
"What kind of tricks are you playing!" Umbridge realized that something was wrong, and he had already entered the Forbidden Forest very deep.
She pointed her wand at the two people, "Where is the thing? Where is it?"
Hermione was sweating finely on her forehead, and she faltered, "Yes, yes..."
"Wow—!"
A group of white shadows descended from the sky, and instantly spurted blood from Umbridge's hand holding the wand, causing the wand to fall.
"Roar—!"
There was a loud bang, and the three of them froze.
Umbridge's screams were caught in her throat, and she quacked like a duck.
Feeling the wind whistling behind his head, Harry turned his head carefully.
The big tail like a peony flower is very long, and a huge monster blinked at them.
Hermione was so stiff that she forgot to breathe.
That big guy like a big cat was there, and no one dared to move.
At this moment, the group of white shadows fluttered down.
Unbiased, right on the head of the big cat.
Now it's the big cat's turn not to move around.
Hermione's eyes widened, that was...
"Basil?"
She called out, and Basil looked at her, then tilted his head.
"Basil help us," Hermione yelled anxiously.
Harry thought it was too risky for her.
Umbridge picked up the dropped wand and cursed at the big cat, "Get out of the way, you ugly beast!"
She shot a rope from her wand to bind the big cat, but the rope broke before it could fly.
She froze for a moment, and a black shadow had come before her. The sharp bird's beak pierced through her wrist, and her sharp claws were embedded in her shoulders. She flew up.
This time, Harry was dumbfounded.
It was a black long-eared owl, and it flew up with a person.
Umbridge yelled and flew farther and farther away, before finally disappearing.
"Sirius!" Harry roared, hurrying back and forth.
Hermione looked back at Basil who was on top of the big cat's head, and she followed.
As soon as he reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest, Harry met the three of Ron who broke free.
"How did you get out?" Hermione asked in surprise.
Ron handed the retrieved wand to Harry and Hermione, and said, "It's Basil, it flew into the office, and it cut those ropes."
"What do we do now?" Ginny asked.
Harry said, "Running to save Sirius, of course."
"But how?" said Ron, embarrassed.
Harry froze.
"We can fly over" the ethereal voice sounded, it was Luna.
"Yeah, but we don't have enough brooms!" said Ron grumpily. "You might be able to fly without a broom, but we can't grow wings!"
"Besides the broom, there are other ways." Luna said calmly.
"Then what can you do, go snoring on a crooked ride?" Ron asked.
"The Horned Snork doesn't know the way, it only knows the places it has been." Luna said proudly, "Remember what Hagrid said, they are good at finding the place the rider wants to find."
Harry turned to see two Thestrals standing between two trees.
Thestrals stared straight at them, as if they understood what they said.
...
"What are you doing in my office?" Umbridge's face was always twitching unconsciously because he had been bitten by a dog.
