Chapter 358 Dumbledore may have been assassinated

"Mike, it's bad!"

As a familiar voice sounded behind them, both Mike and Franklin turned around instinctively, and saw the three Harrys rushing towards this side with anxious expressions on their faces.

"Have you read today's Daily Prophet? Umbridge has become a senior investigator!"

"We were still talking about this just now."

"Yes, it seems that our life will be difficult in the future." Franklin imitated Mike and spread his hands in a helpless manner, "But fortunately Umbridge is not too harsh on us Ravenclaws. , after all, she doesn’t dare to mess with Mike.”

Harry's expression was ugly when he heard this. He had suffered a lot from Umbridge in the past few days, and he felt firsthand that Umbridge's attitude towards Gryffindor House was much worse than that of other houses.

Holding on to his last hope, Harry forced out an ugly smile and said:

"Actually, things may not be that bad. Maybe the newspapers are all nonsense. Think about it, Hogwarts is an ancient school that has been around for thousands of years, and there is Dumbledore here. How could he Are Umbridge allowed to run amok in Hogwarts? We may just wait for Dumbledore to come back and tell him what Umbridge has done."

After the words fell, Harry's expected echo did not appear. On the contrary, everyone's expressions became worse than before, especially Ron, whose expression was so gloomy that he seemed to be dripping with water.

"I feel like Dumbledore may not come back."

Ron's voice made everyone present look surprised, and it wasn't until everyone's eyes fell on him that Ron continued:

"As you all know, my brother Percy had a big fight with his family, and then went to the Ministry of Magic to become Fudge's assistant. As an assistant, he often knows some information that others don't know.

And just last night, I received a letter from him. In the letter, he first congratulated me on becoming a prefect, and then told me a shocking news! "

Perhaps because the following news was too shocking, Ron stopped suddenly, swaying his body and looking extremely nervous.

Mike and others were hearing the key points, and they were very anxious to be so intrigued.

Finally, Harry, who understood Ron best, spoke:

"What's written on it?"

Hearing this, Ron took a big breath like a fish deprived of oxygen and was thrown into the water again, and then said:

"He said that if I want to continue to be my prefect, or if I want to enter the Ministry of Magic and have a bright future, I should stay away from Harry and Dumbledore! At the same time, I have to actively help Umri Strange, leaving a good impression in her heart! Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that he said that Dumbledore will step down soon, and the Ministry of Magic will soon take control of the entire Hogwarts. !

And then you look at now, Dumbledore went to France to visit old friends, which is not too special. But the strange thing is that he can't be contacted! The headmaster of Hogwarts, Dumbledore, who was busy with everything, has now lost contact in a foreign country, and no one can contact him! Now let's combine the news that Percy told us yesterday, and we can draw a very simple and scary conclusion! "

Ron and Harry took a breath of air, then said in unison:

"Dumbledore was assassinated while traveling!"

Hearing this, Mike, Hermione and others looked confused. All three of them were shocked by Harry and Ron's genius reasoning!

Looking at Harry and Ron, their faces were pale, their lips were dry, and they had panic expressions on their faces. They were obviously convinced of the results of their reasoning!

Seeing this, Mike and Franklin couldn't bear it any longer.

"Pfft! Hahahahaha!"

A burst of laughter came from the mouths of Mike and Franklin. The two people were laughing while still punching the table with their fists.

"Why are you laughing! This is a very serious matter!"

Ron said angrily, but it was okay if he didn't say it. As soon as he said it, Mike and Franklin laughed even louder.

Hermione slapped herself on the forehead and said coldly:

"Harry, Ron. Dumbledore cannot be assassinated. You must know that he is a legendary wizard who can rival Voldemort. If the Ministry of Magic can really kill Dumbledore without anyone noticing, then as early as ten Voldemort should have been wiped out years ago!"

"But, but..."

Ron stammered and wanted to continue to quibble, but he couldn't think of a retort and could only keep talking.

Hermione sighed, shook her head helplessly and said:

"Okay, didn't you say that Percy sent you a letter? Just take it out and read it?"

"I...I was so angry that I burned it!"

"Snapped!"

There was a crisp sound, and Hermione slapped herself on the forehead again - she was already desperate for Ron.

"Okay, phew! In short, Dumbledore can't be assassinated." Mike, who had almost recovered his breath, said, "Percy probably means that Dumbledore hasn't been at Hogwarts for a long time. Umbridge will find evidence of Dumbledore's corruption and oust Dumbledore from the position of Headmaster."

"This is impossible!" Harry said categorically, "How could Dumbledore embezzle public funds?! This is obviously a frame-up! The Ministry of Magic has used this trick for a long time. This is what they did to me during the summer vacation! "

"Yes! This is for sure!"

Ron hurriedly echoed, while Mike and others just remained silent.

It was difficult for him to tell Harry and Ron that judging from the current situation, Dumbledore was very likely to have used some of Hogwarts' public funds to some extent.

"Let's not dwell on these issues. Instead of worrying about Dumbledore, we should take good care of ourselves!" Hermione said, "You must know that Umbridge is not only investigating Dumbledore's embezzlement of public funds this time. But professors still need to be reviewed to improve student performance! What do you think she will do?"

"It should be listening to lectures, asking questions, etc. Anyway, this is what I did in the Muggle school I stayed in before, and Hogwarts should be similar in this regard."

Harry nodded hastily, maintaining the same opinion as Franklin in this regard.

When Hermione heard this, she frowned and said:

"I mean, Umbridge's own class was a complicated and boring garbage theory class, but the Daily Prophet called it a successful reform. If this is the definition of success, then in Umbridge Will other professors’ courses become that bad under Qi’s ‘guidance’?”

As soon as this statement appeared, everyone fell into silence again, and even Mike's expression was not very good. Compared with the rich and interesting practical magic class, the simple and complicated theoretical class was really boring.

The faces of Ron and Franklin next to them were even uglier. They were not good students, and they hated cramming and rote theoretical teaching.

If you take more subjects that you can practice, they might be able to give you a decent score, but if you really turn all of them into theoretical classes, their scores will definitely be disappointingly low.

"If things really turn out like this, I'm afraid I won't even have the heart to go to class!" Harry covered his face in despair, "What's even worse is that Voldemort has come back, and not only are we not learning more for the future, Instead of defensive methods, I’m learning those terrible theoretical knowledge!”

"Yeah, I can't even imagine that if this continues and Voldemort really starts to attack Hogwarts, what will we use to protect ourselves? Thick textbooks?"

Ron complained with a frown on his face.

But upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Mike's face, and he said deliberately:

"I have another good idea. Since Umbridge is not willing to teach us more Defense Against the Dark Arts classes, she even organizes other professors to teach us. So why don't I find someone else to teach us?"

"good idea!"

"Why didn't I think of that!"

Hermione, Harry and others' eyes lit up, and they all expressed their agreement.

"But now there is one most important question." The smile in Mike's eyes became thicker, but he still pretended to be distressed and said, "That is who are we going to find to teach us? After all, we have this There are not many people with this ability.”

Harry, Hermione and others looked at each other, and smiles appeared on everyone's faces.

"Isn't this candidate far away and right in front of us?"

"who is it?"

The smile on Mike's face could hardly be suppressed.

"Of course..." Everyone pointed at Mike in unison, "You!"

"I?"

"Yes, powerful power, amazing prestige!" Ron said excitedly, "I simply can't find a more suitable candidate than you!"

"But what I'm good at is fighting, and I'm not very good at other things."

Seeing that Mike was still refusing, Harry became anxious.

I saw him grabbing Hermione and saying anxiously:

"You don't need to worry about this at all. Hermione will assist you with other aspects of knowledge. You must know that Hermione is a genius in this area! So, just agree, Mike, I beg you!"

Mike raised his eyebrows and looked at Hermione, who rubbed the hem of his clothes and finally said under the hint of Harry and Ron's eyes:

"Yes, I will assist you, so please don't worry."

"If that's the case, then I promise you!"

As soon as this was said, Harry and Ron immediately cheered, while Hermione beside them frowned and said:

"But where are we going to have class?"

Harry and Ron's cheers stopped abruptly. After a while, Harry replied with a slight embarrassment:

"How about going to the transsexuality classroom. Professor McGonagall lent it to me as a practice venue during the Triwizard Tournament last year. I'll beg her later and she will probably lend it to us. Maybe……"

Harry's voice grew weaker and weaker, until it was almost inaudible.

Anyone can hear the uncertainty in it.

Hermione sighed again, and was about to think about it when she heard Mike chuckle next to him:

"Don't worry about the venue. I know a place that is most suitable as a teaching venue."

A trace of surprise flashed in Franklin's eyes, and he said in a daze: "Could it be that you are talking about..."

"Yes, that's the place."

"What place are you talking about?"

Harry looked confused, but Mike was not prepared to tell the truth. He just shook his head and said:

"You will know then."

"In that case, I'll leave the venue to you." Hermione immediately agreed. She still trusted Mike very much. At least compared to Harry and Ron, Mike was much more reliable. "As for us , just try your best to pull people in!"

After saying that, Hermione, Harry and Ron, the three-person savior team, looked at each other and then left the auditorium as hurriedly as when they came in. They didn't even bother to eat breakfast.

But as Mike looked at the retreating figures of several people, a sneer appeared on his face.

"Look, isn't the opportunity here?"

"What did you say?" Franklin looked at Mike with a puzzled face, "What kind of opportunity is this?"

"An opportunity for expansion!"

"Well, I don't quite understand what you mean. Can you explain..."

"You don't need to understand." Mike twisted his neck and made a crunching sound of joint friction. "You just need to know that from now on we need to expand crazily."

"Umbridge won't allow it, right? Even if you have some leverage over her."

"It doesn't matter, you just need to carry out my orders."

"Then...that's okay!" Franklin knew Mike very well, and at this time he stopped asking questions very knowingly.

At this moment, Mike was still sneering.

In Fudge's view, Hogwarts is a huge arsenal. Many people, including Dumbledore, firmly deny this. From the perspective of professors, students should enjoy their campus life, not Learn about fighting and killing all day long.

However, Mike's point of view is the same as Fudge.

Hogwarts is different from ordinary Muggle schools. Due to the special nature of the spell, every student here has certain combat abilities.

Not to mention those outstanding students, almost every one of them is an efficient killing machine.

And Mike's purpose is to completely hollow out the soldiers in this arsenal!

In fact, Fudge thought so too, which is why Umbridge was sent to Hogwarts.

But Umbridge was too underestimating the enemy. She completely ignored all the students in Hogwarts, including Mike. Although she had powerful power, she could use high-pressure policies to rule Hogwarts. , but when she exercises high-pressure rule, she will also create dissatisfaction in the hearts of her classmates.

At that point it’s time for Mike to appear!

In this battle for soldiers, the winner will definitely be you!

In Mike's heart, this idea was extremely firm!
