Chapter 242 WOMBAT Test
·
Liu Yue Zhi Yuan Fei
Exam week, Monday.
Professor McGonagall told all the professors to assemble in the auditorium at eight o'clock in the morning.
After Douglas and Lupine had breakfast in the office, the two came to the auditorium together.
Snape was talking to Professor Sprout, when he saw the two of them coming together, he frowned slightly, not hiding his disgust at all, and glared at Lupine.
Then he walked towards Douglas, lowered his voice and said with a sneer:
"I've been urging you to keep your distance from him, but you never seem to listen.
While the wolfsbane potion works well, I guess you've heard that damn Black is a werewolf, how do you think he turned into a werewolf? "
After speaking, Snape flicked his robes and walked directly towards Dumbledore.
Douglas looked at Snape in surprise, and then at Lupine who was smiling wryly.
"Is the credibility of this rumor so high? The Ministry of Magic believes it, your former friends believe it, and the people who hate you the most also believe it."
Lupine sighed and said:
"This is what everyone thinks of werewolves in reality, but the reality is that there are not a few relatives and friends who were hurt by werewolves.
If it wasn't for every time they used an Animagus to get close to me, maybe they would turn into werewolves too. "
At this moment, a high-pitched and thin voice suddenly came:
"Professor Holmes, long time no see. Dear Mr. Minister of Magic, let me say hello to you on his behalf."
Hearing this familiar voice, Douglas felt goose bumps all over his body.
He turned to see Umbridge stepping from behind a group of Wizarding Examinations Authority staff.
She squeezed out an uncomfortable sweet smile towards him.
Douglas took a deep breath, immediately put a smirk on his face, and responded loudly:
"Aha, it turned out to be Minister Umbridge. It's been a long time."
Many people heard Douglas's sincere-sounding Minister Umbridge, and everyone looked at Umbridge.
Especially the people from the Wizarding Authority and the reporters and photographers sent by the "Daily Prophet" had different expressions on their faces.
The smile on Umbridge's face froze for a moment, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, the photographer of the "Daily Prophet" shot her...
After the flashing lights passed, Umbridge immediately realized the problem, his expression immediately became serious, and he explained seriously:
"Professor Holmes, I have emphasized before that I am only a deputy minister, and there is only one minister in the Ministry of Magic."
Douglas waved his hand indifferently and said:
"It's just an adverb, and Minister Umbridge can take it off whenever he wants.
I wonder why Minister Umbridge is here. Is there any important instruction? "
......
Many keen onlookers discovered that Douglas was not simply flattering Umbridge.
They all slowed down what they were talking about, pricked up their ears or squinted their eyes, trying to see what was going on between these two people.
Percy and Penello, the male and female student union presidents closest to the professors, also pricked up their ears.
Percy whispered in Penello's ear:
"Boss has conflicts with this new senior deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic. I heard from my father before that when the school was about to start, the Ministry of Magic once banned the publication of a novel by the boss. It was this deputy minister Umbridge who did it. of.
It's a pity to hear from my father that our names are still on that book. "
Penello looked curious and asked in a very expectant tone:
"What kind of role does the professor arrange for us?"
Percy blushed and said:
"It seems to be a couple of wizards. Specifically, after I graduate, I will ask my father to borrow a book and read it. I will write to you when the time comes."
Penello's heart: What the hell, why did you just write letters after graduation?
......
Umbridge heard Douglas's murderous words again, took a deep breath and said:
"Of course it was commissioned by Minister Fudge of the Ministry of Magic to inspect the preliminary results of the Hogwarts curriculum reform. Minister Fudge is very concerned about wizard education..."
Before she finished speaking, Douglas looked directly at Professor McGonagall standing aside and asked:
"Professor, the first class is about to start, what are your arrangements for calling everyone here?"
Umbridge was enraged by Douglas' behavior, and those protruding eyeballs seemed to protrude a little more.
Professor McGonagall was about to listen to what Umbridge had to say when he was suddenly called by Douglas and said in a daze:
"Oh, I'm sorry. I just received a notice from Deputy Minister Umbridge that all our students need to temporarily add an exam for this exam..."
Umbridge took a step forward at this moment, and interrupted directly:
"Sorry, Vice President, I think it's more accurate to use the word "testing test", but I almost forgot that this word was first proposed by Professor Holmes, heck...
To be precise, the added test is called the wizard general magic and basic aptitude test (wombat).
The wombat test only has a written part, it contains many subjects at Hogwarts, and is divided into three parts, it can test whether the testee can live safely and effectively in the wizarding world..."
Following Umbridge's description, three parchments flew from a person from the Wizarding Examinations Administration to the professors present.
Douglas glanced briefly. These three test papers included contents such as magic law, magic traffic
Everyday magic, nature, magical creatures, wizarding current affairs, magic items, Muggle studies, history of magic, international wizarding, magic theory, dark arts.
And most of the above questions are related to the Ministry of Magic, such as:

Douglas scoffed at this. He looked at a few people from the Wizarding Examination Administration. Obviously, the other party also guessed why the other party looked at them, showing helplessness.
Not only Douglas, but other professors who noticed this content also showed disdain.
Of course, this test paper is not useless, and there are some common sense questions in it. Although these questions also appear in other test papers, there is no such test paper that summarizes all kinds of common problems in the magical world.

......
Not all exams are required for every grade. There are four exams for grades one to two, eight exams for grades three to five, and eight exams for grades six and seven.
Douglas faintly sensed a hint of conspiracy from this test question, especially what Umbridge said.
He looked at the eloquent Umbridge again, although the professors basically ignored her, only Dumbledore echoed, seeming very interested.
Only Douglas looked weird because he heard Dumbledore say:
"Ouch oh hey!"
"Yeah, this is it!"
"That's right, that's what it means!"
"Hey! How fresh!"
Umbridge also had a look of enjoyment, as if it made what she said meaningful.
