Ever since Umbridge stepped into Hogwarts as senior investigator and Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, she has been working hard to solidify her position. Her greatest pride was in successfully exposing Lupin, and using the incident to incite fear among Hogwarts students and parents, ultimately forcing Principal Dumbledore to compromise.

However, Lupine's unexpected return disgraced her.

He just went back to the academy to pick up some personal belongings, but he was greeted by all the little wizards in class. They kept thinking about each other, and they couldn't leave each other.

In short, this is like being a boyfriend and girlfriend. Your partner is interested in your ex. The more I miss you, the more I am bored with my current position.

This made Umbridge angry and humiliated.

Worse still, as Pansy Parkinson said, law does not punish the public.

If only one or two young wizards expressed support for Lupine, she might be able to establish her authority through confinement, corporal punishment, etc. But now, almost the entire class was on Lupin's side, which left her feeling helpless.

In order to restore her prestige, Umbridge decided to find ground with other professors.

So, in the next few days, she made full use of the authority given to her by the education order, frequently entering and leaving the classrooms of various subjects, criticizing the teaching of professors in various subjects, trying to demonstrate her authority in this way.

A small group of students were happy to hear about Umbridge's action.

They had long been tired of those rigid and dogmatic professors, and were extremely looking forward to Umbridge revealing their true colors and driving them out of Hogwarts.

Everyone was looking forward to Umbridge being able to drive out several professors.

For example, Professor Binns, the unnamed Potions teacher, and a certain fortune-telling professor who was always talking about it...

To the professors, it was like they suddenly learned that a leader from the Ministry of Education wanted to Teachers who come to attend open classes feel nervous and uneasy.

Anyone who is unqualified will be fired.

Experienced teachers will make preparations in advance to let students understand the course content, and even take classes in advance to deal with possible emergencies.

Those who are inexperienced can only deal with it in a panic.

Professor Trelawney is undoubtedly a typical representative of the latter.

She is usually mysterious and enigmatic, but in fact she has no real talent.

Umbridge's actions this time made her feel unprecedented pressure.

What about the promised career bonuses, state-owned enterprise benefits, never layoffs, guaranteed income during droughts and floods?

Why did he suddenly start to have a mid-life crisis and face the risk of being fired?

On Friday afternoon, in the divination class, Professor Trelawney held a"Dream Interpretation Guide" and explained to the young wizards three methods of dream interpretation in her unique tone of voice that seemed to be communicating with another world. method.

The atmosphere in the classroom was a bit dull.

The students either held their chins or had blurry eyes. They were obviously made drowsy by Professor Trelawney's lengthy explanation.

Even Hermione, who was usually passionate about academics, couldn't help but sigh slightly at this moment.

Hermione had privately studied many prophecy spells with Levin, and she felt that she had considerable talent in this area.

However, the strange thing is that whenever she tries to perform divination according to Professor Trelawney's method, she always ends in failure.

She couldn't help but begin to wonder: Was Professor Trelawney's course too weak, or did she really have no talent in this area?

Just as Hermione was lost in thought, Professor Trelawney finally closed the thick"Interpretation of Dreams""Guide", using her ethereal voice to assign today's classroom tasks:"Now, please divide into pairs, use the"Dream Interpretation Guide" as a reference, and explain to each other the scenes that each other has seen in their dreams recently.……"

However, before Professor Trelawney could finish his words, he was interrupted by a sudden and harsh sound of opening the door.

The students turned their heads to look, and saw Professor Umbridge emerging from the trap door on the floor, with a sweet smile on her face.

"Good afternoon, Professor Trelawney."Umbridge closed the trap door and said in her unique high-pitched voice,"I believe you must have received my notification, right? It clearly says I'm coming to check on the time and date of your class."

Professor Trelawney's face immediately darkened, and he nodded with a straight face, looking very unhappy. Then he continued to explain the specific steps of dream interpretation to the students without even looking at her, as if Umbridge did not exist at all. Normally.

Umbridge didn't seem to care about Trelawney's cold attitude. She walked straight to the chair nearest to her, grabbed it and pulled it aside to sit down. She looked around in the classroom, writing the pen in her hand. The writing board kept waving, showing a critical look from time to time.

Trelawney finally ended her long explanation, and sat down to rest with a dry mouth. At this time, Umbridge, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke:

"Professor Trelawney, how long have you been in this position?

Trelawney looked a little unhappy, but still replied:"Almost sixteen years.""

"Sixteen years? Time is running out……"Umbridge repeated softly while jotting down a few strokes on the writing board,"Then," Umbridge raised her head slightly, looked directly at Trelawney with her shrewd eyes, and said provocatively," You must have a lot of experience in divination, right?" When

Professor Trelawney heard this, she immediately glared at her fiercely, crossed her arms, and shrugged her shoulders, as if it was extremely rude for the other party to say such a thing.

"I have worked diligently in this school for sixteen years. If I did not have real talents and knowledge, would Professor Dumbledore let me continue to hold this profession?"

Trelawney's voice was full of confidence,

"You can ask about my divination ability, even the principal doesn't dare to question it. Professor McGonagall would occasionally bow to me for advice, asking when Gryffindor would win the Quidditch championship; Professor Flitwick would also ask me to help with divination on marriage matters.……"

Judging from Trelawney's tone, it seemed as if she was a core figure in the Hogwarts professor team and everyone was her fan.

How much fake wine did she have to drink before she dared to say that.

But perhaps it was this confident temperament that allowed her to deceive and kidnap her for so many years without being exposed. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Umbridge was shocked by Trelawney's aura, and she jotted down a few words on the writing board to hide her uneasiness.

After coming here for a while, she asked again:"So, Professor Dumbledore appointed you?"

"That's right." Trelawney answered simply and neatly, with a hint of pride in his tone."He asked me to come out many times!"

Umbridge made a few strokes on the writing board again, then slowly raised her head and said in her unique high-pitched voice:"As far as I know, you are the famous prophet Cassandra Trelaw. Ni's great-great-granddaughter, right?"

"Yes. Trelawny raised his head, as proudly as an old hen that had just laid eggs.

However, Umbridge did not stop there.

"But I remember that none of Cassandra Trelawney's descendants seemed to have inherited her prophetic gift.……"She continued to look at Trelawney with questioning eyes:"So, do you think you will be that person?"The only exception?"

Professor Trelawney felt guilty, but she quickly calmed down and explained:"This kind of talent is usually inherited from one generation to the next, um... I mean three generations."

Looking at Trelawney's somewhat embarrassed look, Umbridge's smile grew wider.

She closed the writing board in her hand with a snap, and then said in an unquestionable tone:"Go on. Come down, I hope you can make a prophecy for me. This is not only an assessment of your teaching ability, but will also be directly related to your teacher rating."

The little wizards in the classroom were all immersed in their books, but the tense atmosphere between Professor Trelawney and Umbridge made them unable to concentrate anymore.

They put down their books one after another and looked at the two curiously. The professor looked around, wondering what was going on.

Professor Trelawney glared at Umbridge angrily, the anger in her eyes seeming to devour the other person.

After a while, she said angrily:"I didn't The law gives you a prophecy, but the third eye will not be ordered to see it!"

"Okay, I think I roughly understand what you mean!"Umbridge was very disappointed with Trelawney's reaction. She shook her head, picked up the writing board and was about to leave.

However, the moment she turned around, Trelawney's voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"If I were you I would leave this school immediately!"

Umbridge paused in her forward steps and turned her head in surprise.

At this time, Trelawney had changed her appearance, her voice was gloomy and strange, she was lying low on the chair, her body was twitching slightly, as if she was Suffering some great pain, she whispered in a low voice:

"I see... darkness in you... scars and pain... You're going to be in trouble, Umbridge!"

Her words made Um (De Wang Zhao) Rich feel a chill. She turned her head and looked at Trelawney in surprise.

Trelawney's eyes were wide open, with a sad light shining in them. Suddenly he opened his mouth and screamed,"This is a curse... This is a curse!"

The sharp sound echoed in the classroom, and the little wizards nearby couldn't help but cover their ears.

Umbridge was startled by Trelawney's scream. She took two steps back unconsciously, and then Her face was red. She shouted angrily:"Trelawney? Were you cursing me just now?"

Trelawney's face was as pale as paper, and she looked like she had spent too much energy. She was panting heavily, as if she had just experienced a huge torture.

At this time, she looked at Umbridge with more eyes. A little scared, but still said with certainty:"That's the prophecy... the prophecy team you want!"

"prophecy? But I heard many students mention that you like to scare the new students at the beginning of the semester, saying that they will die violently this year, right?"Umbridge stared at Trelawney with her sharp eyes, with obvious doubts in her tone.

Professor Trelawney did not flinch, and replied in a firm tone:"What I saw Yes, it is what I predicted. I can't change and I won't lie."

Umbridge was so angry at Trelawney's stubbornness that she threw away her sleeves angrily, turned around and strode away, her high heels making a loud rhythm on the floor.
