"Professor Umbridge wants to see you."
Cedric had just finished class and was about to go to lunch when he was stopped by Filch in the hallway.
"What did Umbridge do with Cedric?"
Several of Cedric's friends glared at Filch, and now everyone knew that Umbridge was staring at him.
"follow me."
Filch ignored the bad looks from the others and led Cedric toward Umbridge's office.
Cedric turned to glance at his friend, shrugged his shoulders, and followed Filch out of the hall.
"Damn toad, we have to do something?"
Although they said so and knew what they had to do to get Cedric out of trouble, no one did anything about it.
Maybe they don't know what to do, maybe they don't dare to do it at all.
When he walked to Umbridge's office door, the expression on Cedric's face was still calm. He had long expected this day to come. After Filch knocked on the door three times, he said: Walk in through the door that was pushed open.
Umbridge sat in a chair behind his desk, not knowing what he was writing. After Cedric walked in, she put down her quill, looked up at Cedric, smiled her trademark, raised her finger to the chair opposite, and said, "Sit down, Mr. Cedric."
Cedric surreptitiously surveyed Umbridge's office, his first time here. The office is filled with pink decorations that don't match Umbridge's age at all, and trays of various cats are placed on shelves in a girly style.
However, the owner of the office is an old witch.
Cedric suddenly understood why Umbridge liked to speak with a girl's sharp voice. It turned out that the other party had always had a girl's heart.
Still, the thought of Umbridge's age made him sick.
On the wall behind the table was nailed a large, strong iron bolt, to which three broomsticks were being chained and locked.
Cedric recognized at a glance that it was Potter's Firebolt, and the two Weasley brothers swept five stars. Thanks to Umbridge's "help", maybe Hufflepuff can be again in the next game. Beating Gryffindor, however, Cedric was not happy.
"Professor, do you have anything to do with me?" Cedric asked directly after arranging the expression on his face.
"I heard some rumors recently and want to talk to you about something." Umbridge stared at Cedric with the usual fake smirk on his face: "By the way, what do you want to drink?"
"What?" Cedric's heart suddenly bulged, and he secretly said: Is it still here?
"What would you like to drink, Mr. Diggory?" Umbridge's smile grew wider. "Tea, coffee, pumpkin juice?"
"Then milk tea!" Cedric said without hesitation.
Hearing such an answer, Umbridge felt a little uncomfortable for some reason, but she waved her wand and conjured a cup of steaming milk tea for Cedric.
Cedric stared at the milk tea in front of him, knowing that he probably couldn't escape, so he took a sip of the milk tea and said with a stiff expression: "The taste of this cup of milk tea is really indescribable."
"what?"
Umbridge didn't react for a while.
Cedric put down the cup of tea he drank and started his own performance: "This cup of milk tea is hard to drink, and it makes me feel a little sick."
Umbridge raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Cedric with a sinister and kind smile after looking at the milk tea that had been drank, and asked, "I heard that the Self-Defense Guide is where you are. ?"
"A Guide to Self-Defense?" Cedric said quietly. "I did read that book."
"once?"
Umbridge's face darkened.
"Yes, once. I saw the book on the library desk and put it back after reading it." Cedric explained with a blank face: "This is a private rule, just for the sake of Don't let Umbridge know who took the book."
"Who came up with the rules?" Umbridge's face was very ugly.
"I don't know." Cedric shook his head.
"So, you don't know where that book is now?" Umbridge's face darkened.
"I don't know, only the person who took the book knows."
After a brief silence, Umbridge asked again, "Mr. Cedric, how much do you know about Dumbledore's Army?"
"Understand, there are all kinds of rumors about Dumbledore's Army circulating in Hogwarts school." Cedric looked at Umbridge and continued: "Some people say that Dumbledore's Army is an organization established by the Anti-Toad Alliance. , whose purpose was to kick Umbridge out of the school."
The smile on Umbridge's face disappeared completely. Cedric's words just now were undoubtedly an insult to her, but she couldn't be angry, because Cedric, who drank Veritaserum, only told the truth.
"Some people say that Dumbledore's Army is an organization established by Dumbledore. This organization is attracting Hogwarts students to join and teach them how to use magic to fight. The purpose is to overthrow the current Minister of Magic Fudge. Domination. Everyone says Dumbledore has his headquarters somewhere in the Forbidden Forest, but no one knows what it is."
"Any students?" Umbridge hinted. "Like Potter?"
"No." Cedric shook his head. "Everyone thought it was a rumor."
"Go on," Umbridge said blankly.
"Some people say that Dumbledore's Army is actually a group formed spontaneously by students, because the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Umbridge's stuff is too bad, those students who want to get good grades in the upcoming important exams They all joined, it is said to be called the 'Defense Association'..."
"You think it has something to do with Albert Anderson," Umbridge interrupted again.
"It doesn't matter, Albert is very busy. The last time I asked him for the knowledge on the Self-Defense Guide, he refused." Cedric shook his head.
"What's he up to?" Umbridge asked warily.
"I'm about to graduate, Albert is hurrying to read some of the books in the forbidden area." Cedric said calmly: "He can borrow any book in the forbidden area."
"Who gave the power."
"Headmaster Dumbledore." Cedric was silent after speaking.
"you can go now."
Umbridge looked Cedric up and down, made sure he couldn't ask any other answers, and let him go.
Looking at the reopened door, Umbridge frowned, intuition telling her that Cedric might be lying, but Umbridge couldn't see where the other party was lying.
Is there something wrong with Veritaserum?
Umbridge stared at half a cup of milk tea, frowning slightly.
Finally, she called the house elf and asked her to ask the house elf a few questions after drinking the half cup of milk tea with the Veritaserum added. After confirming that the Veritaserum really worked, she let the house elf leave.
"Am I being over-hearted?" Umbridge muttered.
If Albert was here, he would definitely complain about Umbridge's potions level, but he didn't know that Veritaserum also had an antidote.
Of course, it could also be that Umbridge didn't think Cedric would prepare the antidote ahead of time and take it quietly under her nose.
Cedric was actually an antidote on the road, thanks to Albert's way of preserving Flux.
News that Cedric had been called to his office by Umbridge quickly spread through Hogwarts Castle, immediately causing dissatisfaction among the Hufflepuff students.
If Albert is the face of Gryffindor House, then Cedric is the face of Hufflepuff, and Umbridge's actions undoubtedly hit the face of Hufflepuff House.
Hermione was taken aback by the news, and she was relieved when she was sure that Cedric had not triggered the curse she had placed on the list.
"How did you do it?" Harry asked blankly.
Due to his crush on Qiu Zhang, Harry's relationship with Cedric is not very good. However, after taking the tranquilizer, he was still able to maintain his apparent calm.
"An antidote to Veritaserum."
Cedric still holds a lot of weight among the DA members, at least the Hufflepuff students agree with him.
During the practice of separating the team, in addition to Harry, Cedric and the Weasley brothers will also help lead people separately, so as to speed up the efficiency of everyone's spell mastery. Otherwise, it will be difficult to learn the contents of the "Guide to Self-Defense" in a short period of time and let everyone get sufficient training.
"An antidote for Veritaserum?" Hermione asked with wide eyes. "Can you make an antidote for Veritaserum?"
"Of course not, it's the antidote that Albert gave me." Cedric shook his head and said, "Don't expect too much, he doesn't have much of the Veritaserum antidote left."
"There is still a risk of exposure to DA if Toad uses Veritaserum on other members.
Cedric briefly briefed the two of the three proposals Albert gave him.
"The first one is more reliable. We can't distribute the antidote of Veritaserum to everyone. As for the forgetting spell... If you are not good at it, it is best not to use it indiscriminately." Hermione said immediately: "So just find an opportunity to delay. Time, reinforcements to others, and troubles are the best results."
"This may have to go to Fred and George, they are better at this." Harry agreed with Hermione's proposal, "Start the next party as soon as possible, and everyone must be vigilant!"
"It's best to stab Umbridge's suspected use of Veritaserum on the students," Hermione added.
…
"I think the toad is trying to die, and dares to use the Veritaserum to torture the students at Hogwarts." During the herbal medicine class, George took the time to tell Albert the news.
"Really?" Shanna's eyes widened.
"Not long ago, Cedric was called by Toad to the Defence Against the Dark Arts office for tea." George said in a low voice, "Now everyone is worried about being called by Toad for tea."
"Does Dumbledore care about this kind of thing?" Shanna couldn't understand why Toad dared to be so reckless.
"No evidence."
"evidence?"
"The adult world is far more cruel than you think. It's common to use any means to achieve an end. To be honest, if necessary, I have no doubt that she would use the Cruciatus to torture students." Albert said slowly. Work on the plants on hand.
"Attention, gentlemen and ladies, you have to speed up your progress, Albert is almost done." Professor Sprout reminded him as he passed by.
"Toad still uses Cruciatus?" George doubted that Toad was acting badly.
"Cruel people are usually able to use Cruciatus, which is the source of power for most black magic." Albert has taken down a small brown ball from the tree. This thing is called an explosive fruit, which will produce after ripening Exploding, and distributing seeds in this way, has a relatively strong lethality to ordinary animals and plants. It must be picked before it is mature, and the explosive jelly must be frozen with a freezing spell before picking.
A small amount of exploding fruit extract is added to the exploding fondant in the Honey Duke candy store.
"I think she should still be hospitalized, so that everyone can live a comfortable life." George looked at Albert, hoping that the other party could give them some advice.
"Some spells can't be used in combination, otherwise there will be bad effects." Albert said after a moment of thought, "Of course, some potions can also have similar effects."
"That's a good idea," George said without hesitation. "It's not surprising that something strange happened to the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor."
"You really intend to do that?" Shanna had a hard time understanding what was going on in the world. Hogwarts was no longer a warm home for everyone. She felt that the whole world had become insane.
The relationship between Umbridge and the students was so bad that they wanted to kill each other. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
"Who made the era of chaos come."
"The era of chaos? It seems that our luck is not very good." Shanna stopped in front of the entrance hall and looked at the students who were leaning against the notice wall with a disgusted expression. There was no doubt that a new education order was born.
"Our luck is actually good, at least we graduated from Hogwarts in time." Albert looked at the education order on the notice wall, and laughed and joked: "If people copy the education order now, they will definitely give it to them. crazy."
"Umbridge is going to form an action team to say what to maintain the stability of Hogwarts and avoid some conflicts. It's disgusting!" Lee Jordan said out of nowhere, and said with disgust, "I dare to Saying that the so-called action group were all Slytherin students, Toad even forgot that he was from Ravenclaw."
"She has already dismissed the students of Ravenclaw Academy." Albert reminded kindly.
He was not surprised by Toad's series of actions. Adults value the pros and cons more, and in fact, he himself does the same.
"She should be punished!"
On the way back to the common room, George suddenly said, "If Toad doesn't get punished, she'll only get better next time.
"What's your plan?"
"I want to turn her into a toad," George said in a low voice. "Of course, you can also secretly use a spell on her to make the toad suffer from a serious skin disease and have to stay in the hospital for the next few months."
