Umbridge had always believed in the information Marietta provided.
After all, this is not the first time that this little spy codenamed"Pangolin" has brought her key information to help her avoid those annoying pranks.
More importantly, Marietta's background gave Umbridge a little more trust in her.
Her mother is Mrs. Acmore of the Floo Network Administration of the Department of Magical Transportation, and the Department of Magical Transportation happens to be within Fudge's sphere of influence.
In short, with a prosperous background and the merits of escorting her, who else would Umbridge believe if she didn't believe Marietta?
However, Umbridge was always a bit dumbfounded by the codename"Pangolin".
She knew that this was an animal unique to the East that was good at digging burrows, but why did Marietta choose such a code name?
Umbridge once curiously asked Marietta,"Why did you choose this code name?"
Marietta blinked and replied playfully:"Spies, don't they just dig holes in the ground and collect information every day. In addition, I am currently lurking next to the Dragonborn Zhang Qiu and Levin
Green, so this code name is more appropriate."
Umbridge couldn't help laughing after hearing this, thinking that this little guy is quite good at explaining. As a result, she valued Marietta even more.
On this day, Marietta brought exciting news to Umbridge:"Professor, I learned about Levin's secret base from my good friend Zhang Qiu!"
She lowered her voice and said mysteriously Said,"That base was originally Slytherin's secret room, and the entrance was hidden in an abandoned bathroom."
Umbridge's eyes lit up after hearing this.
She knew about Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets, one of Levingreen's brilliant achievements.
It is said that at the end of the second grade semester, Levin and his two companions bravely broke into the secret room, defeated the basilisk hiding there, and successfully rescued two classmates.
It now appears that Levine took possession of the chamber after that operation and used it as his secret base
""So," Umbridge said,"Levin is usually very arrogant but never sees the end. It turns out that he is probably hiding in the secret room and plotting some kind of conspiracy.""
She smiled slightly, with a cold light flashing in her eyes.
"Yes, professor. Marietta agreed,"I think Levin must be brewing some big plan in the secret room.""
Speaking of Zhang Qiu, the little wizard, Umbridge has actually been eyeing her for a long time.
She believes that Zhang Qiu has more value in instigating rebellion than Marietta.
This is because the relationship between Zhang Qiu and Levin is close enough, whether it is He is a core figure in the Erudite Society and the Ravenclaw Quidditch team.
Umbridge knows that as long as she can win over Zhang Qiu, obtaining information about Levin will be like a treasure.
Moreover, her Her mother also worked in the Ministry of Magic, which could be considered a handle, but unfortunately it was not within Fudge's sphere of influence.
But in the end, she was unable to do that because it was a conversation brought by Marietta. She told Umbridge, Zhang Qiu was so disgusted with her that he even called her a"pink toad" in private.
What made Umbridge even more unbearable was that Zhang Qiu actually laughed at her as an unmarried old aunt because she couldn't get love. Moisturizing and twisted inside.
These words were like a sharp thorn, piercing the softest part of Umbridge's heart.
Did she really not want to have love?
She also wanted to find someone who could love and cherish her. Little fresh meat.
But reality is always cruel. Those young and handsome wizards seem to stay away from her, unable to discover the beauty and tenderness deep in her heart.
"Another spoiled little brat by Levine."
Umbridge said through gritted teeth.
She swore in her heart that if she had the chance, she would hit Zhang Qiu hard!
Back to the subject, after getting the precious information, Professor Umbridge decided to go out to investigate in person.
She is not the kind of person who will easily hand over important tasks to others. After all, this operation is related to whether she can further consolidate her position in the ancient castle of Hogwarts.
She has already planned the operation. Every detail, including the choice of time.
The banquet on Halloween Eve is undoubtedly an excellent time.
At that time, the little wizards in the castle will gather in the auditorium to enjoy the annual feast.
Even the usual dragons Levin, who has never seen the end, will also appear in the auditorium at that time to celebrate the festival with everyone. At that time, the Chamber of Secrets must be unguarded, which gives Umbridge an opportunity.
Time Soon, it was Halloween, which Professor Umbridge and the little wizards were all looking forward to.
However, as the holiday approached, everyone felt that something was wrong, and the air in the castle seemed to lack the joy of previous years. and noisy.
If you have to describe it, it’s like celebrating the New Year, but you don’t receive the New Year’s money as usual.
Although every New Year, when the juniors receive red envelopes from their elders, they will try their best to give in...or be asked to give in, as if they don’t want to at all. It looks like you need lucky money.
But that doesn’t mean that the elders can skip this step. They really don’t give red envelopes.
It’s the same thing when it comes to Halloween.
Students are still privately complaining about the monotony of Halloween activities. It seems that except for pumpkins Nothing new.
However, when the first ray of sunlight on Halloween morning shone through the windows in the castle, everyone was surprised to find that the familiar smell of roasted pumpkin seemed to be missing from the air.
"How does this work?"Many people muttered dissatisfiedly,"How can Halloween be without the smell of roasted pumpkins?"
At this time, everyone suddenly realized that Hagrid, who planted pumpkins for them every year and added to the atmosphere of Halloween, had not appeared for a long time.
In previous years, Hagrid would always plant huge pumpkins in his fields. Pumpkins with the [Expansion Spell] are transported into the castle on Halloween, and then these pumpkins will become the main part of the castle that day, either baked into pastry dishes, squeezed into drinks, or Being hung high as a decoration... in short, the whole castle was filled with a festive atmosphere.
But this year, his absence made the festival a little deserted.
Although many students were not interested in Hagrid's class, in At this moment, they all inexplicably missed that tall figure.
After all, Hagrid was also an indispensable part of Hogwarts.
It was as if year after year had passed, except for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, the professor There are always those familiar faces on the staff desk, as if they will never change.
And...there is a rule that something will happen on Halloween.
The professors probably also realized that the holiday atmosphere is not strong. Early in the morning, Professor Flitwick personally led people to Hagrid's field, hoping to find some wild pumpkins to add a touch of atmosphere to the festival.
However, unfortunately, they did not find any trace of pumpkins until the evening. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
In desperation, Professor Flitwick had no choice but to use magic to turn a handful of Bibi's multi-flavored beans into a jack-o'-lantern, and hang it in the auditorium for a while.
In addition, In order to add to the festive atmosphere, the professors also deliberately placed a group of fluttering big-mouthed bats and many colorful ball fish spraying water in the corridor.
However, these temporary arrangements could not make up for the vacancy caused by Hagrid's absence.
When the banquet was about to begin, everyone noticed that Umbridge did not appear at the staff table.
Although this was not a strange thing - she was always injured recently and did not eat in the Great Hall for many times - but it still made people feel... Curious.
Dumbledore didn't seem to care about her absence, or he was too lazy to look for her, and directly announced that the Halloween banquet had officially begun.
As Dumbledore's voice slowly fell, the lights in the auditorium gradually dimmed, creating a A mysterious and dark atmosphere. A unique Halloween banquet kicked off. The long table was filled with a dazzling array of delicacies, each dish exuded a tempting aroma, and the performances were particularly interesting, even the weird sisters The band all came to sing a song, adding a lot of joy to the banquet.
Umbridge's absence seemed to make the students more relaxed and comfortable, and they ate the delicious food. Without the stern witch present, the entire auditorium They are all full of a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.
The professors also have their own thoughts. Professor
Flitwick intends to use the wine to ask Trelawney, when did she calculate her marriage destiny? What happened in the previous divination class has already been It's spread like wildfire[]
In order to prove her ability in divination, Trelawney even insisted that Flitwick had come to her many times to divine marriage.
Now there are rumors in the school that Flitwick likes Trelawney, which is why he harasses her over and over again. This made Flitwick feel veryembarrassed.
Professor McGonagall was very happy about Umbridge's absence. She raised her glass and drank a few more sips of wine with Professor Sprout, with a cheerful smile on her face. She felt particularly comfortable without the witch who was always looking for trouble by her side.
However, it was Professor Snape who was most unhappy. He specially brewed a potion for Umbridge and planned to give her some color at the dinner party, but who knew that she didn't come tonight!
Snape felt that his efforts were in vain and his heart was filled with disappointment.
Although everyone had their own thoughts, everyone still enjoyed the Halloween party happily.
The climax of the evening banquet was the entertainment program presented by the ghosts of Hogwarts.
With a burst of mist, the ghosts quietly emerged from the walls and tables, and began to line up and glide in the air. They floated gracefully in the air, and danced a death song along with the weird and trembling notes emitted by the music saw. Waltz.
Nick, as the best among the ghosts, especially shows his experience of almost being headless.
His head was seen hanging precariously on his neck, as if it would fall off at any time, causing the students to exclaim.
The whole performance is full of the atmosphere of the underworld, making people feel like they are in another world.
After the banquet, the students walked upstairs in an orderly manner under the leadership of their prefects.
They discussed the ghosts' performance and looked forward to tomorrow's class.
However, some people feel that this year's Halloween seems to be missing something.
For example, nothing happened this Halloween!.
