Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 359
What's the trick to winning any fight?
Mike once thought about this question for a long time, but because of his worrying cultural level, Mike never thought of an accurate answer until he accidentally heard a famous saying - unite the majority and strike a small group .

To this day, Mike can’t remember who said this sentence, but he always believes that the person who created this summary must be a great person, and his greatness is even greater than that of scientists like Einstein. What's more, because he pointed out a clear path for all the careerists in the world in the future.

The wizarding world apparently hadn't heard of it, least of all Umbridge.

Therefore, she has been wooing the rich and powerful Slytherin house since she entered Hogwarts, and used high-pressure policies to force students from other houses to obey her orders.

This behavior undoubtedly pushed her to the opposite of most people.

And this also created an excellent opportunity for Mike.

But whatever Umbridge suppressed, Mike would try his best to win over, but whatever Umbridge wooed, Mike would desperately suppress.

Under the ebb and flow, Mike believed that almost all the students in Hogwarts' three houses except Slytherin would be taken under his command, and by that time, it would be time for Umbridge to perish.

Of course, Umbridge didn't know about Mike's plans.

In fact, at this moment, she was staying in her newly renovated office, looking over and over again a letter with ink pads from the Ministry of Magic.

This is the commission from the Ministry of Magic to designate her as a senior Hogwarts investigator, and it is also the reward for her hard work during this period.

Minister Fudge took Dumbledore's possible corruption very seriously, and not only directly appointed her as the 'First Senior Investigator of Hogwarts', but also made a big splash about her in the newspapers.

The next thing is very simple, she wants to dig out the evidence of Dumbledore's embezzlement of public funds!

Come to think of it, that's Dumbledore!
The strongest white wizard of this era, if he can send him to Azkaban, what a great achievement it will be!
With this astonishing performance and relationship with Minister Fudge, after Fudge retires, he can go to other departments to be a leader with real power. Even the position that represents the highest power in the country's wizarding world says Might as well try it out!
Minister Umbridge!

What an intoxicating appellation!
In a trance, Umbridge seemed to see the glorious moment when he successfully ran for the position of minister and was surrounded by flowers and applause!

But when Umbridge fell into fantasy, there was a sudden knock on the door of the office.

"Boom boom boom!"

Accompanied by the rhythmic knocking sound, Umbridge's body trembled violently, and he woke up.

Immediately afterwards, Umbridge breathed out a long breath, and then squeezed the orchid finger to put away the commission in front of her—she was going to frame it as a tool to show off in the future.

"coming!"

After finishing all this, Umbridge finally stood up. Since she was about to meet an extremely important guest, she even arranged the pink dress on her body.

But Umbridge opened the door, and what appeared in front of her was a tall young man with a head of brown hair. He was wearing a neat Hogwarts school uniform, and the Slytherin prefect badge on his chest was reflected by the fire in the fireplace. Glittering underneath.

"Good evening, Professor Umbridge."

The teenager smiled and nodded to Umbridge, both in appearance and manners were impeccable.

"Come on in, Chris, I'm waiting for you."

There is a strange light in Umbridge's eyes. In fact, apart from liking everything about little girls, Umbridge also has an unspeakable secret hobby.

That's handsome man!
Young handsome man!
Relying on the power in her hands these years, Umbridge has used various methods to 'mutilate' many people. Now that she saw Chris, she suddenly felt her heartbeat speed up again.

It's a pity that the man in front of me is different from the usual fresh and handsome men who just graduated from Hogwarts. The other party is the patriarch of a holy pure-blood family, and he is the actual talker of almost all the Slytherin students right now. .

Now Hogwarts is very chaotic, and it is difficult to complete the task by myself even with the help of the Ministry of Magic, so I must get the help of the person in front of me!
Thinking of this, seeing Chris who was looking around after entering the office, the smile on Umbridge's face became even brighter.

"I have to say, your decoration here is really beautiful!" Chris exclaimed, "At the same time, it can be seen from these, Professor Umbridge, you are definitely a lovely lady!"

Unlike ordinary bragging, when Chris said it, his expression was sincere and his tone was firm.

Coupled with his handsome appearance, Umbridge felt his heart beat faster!

"Yes... thanks! Please sit down, I've already made black tea for you." Umbridge started to stutter, but her long-term experience in dealing with politicians quickly calmed her down again. .

Looking at Chris who sat on the high chair and began to taste black tea after saying thank you, Umbridge gritted his teeth, intending to make a quick decision, and said:
"Chris, you should know that I am now a senior Hogwarts investigator, and my main task is to investigate Dumbledore's corruption."

"Of course, I haven't had time to congratulate you yet."

"It doesn't matter about the congratulations, as long as you have the heart." Umbridge said, "My priority now is to find evidence of Dumbledore's corruption. For this, I need your help."

After saying that, Umbridge put away his smile and looked at Chris seriously.

For Chris, she also did some homework.

She knew that the young man in front of her was not as gentle and refined as he appeared on the surface, he was actually a very cruel and greedy person, otherwise he would not be able to unify the family and Slytherin House in a short time .

Therefore, she was ready to be slaughtered by Chris!

However, to her surprise, Chris actually said after hearing the words:
"How can I refuse a request from a beautiful lady? Well, Ms. Umbridge, among my classmates happen to be descendants of the Hogwarts trustees, and I can let them save their family money I will give you the annual reports that Hogwarts submits to these trustees."

"This is really good!" Umbridge couldn't help but exclaimed.

Hogwarts itself actually has a mechanism to prevent corruption. This mechanism causes Hogwarts to give detailed expenditure and income accounts at the end of each year while taking money from the school trustees and the Ministry of Magic. Mlitch was then able to conduct a detailed audit.

Umbridge has wanted this ledger for a long time. Originally, there were many such ledgers stored in the Ministry of Magic, but Umbridge's request was blocked by many "Dengpai", so she could only get it from Chris. Let's do it.

"Hahaha, you don't need to be so excited." Chris laughed, "Let's not say that you are the deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic, and it is our citizens' duty to cooperate with the Ministry of Magic. Just because you are a beautiful lady , it will be very difficult for me to refuse your request!"

"Oh! You are so generous, I really don't know how to thank you!"

"You're welcome, these are just a little effort. If you really want to thank me, why don't you just give me a kiss."

……

Half an hour later, Umbridge finally finished talking with Chris.

Of course, Umbridge didn't do anything inappropriate with Chris, and she didn't give him a kiss like Chris asked.

Umbridge still has some self-knowledge, no matter from any angle, he is not considered a beauty.

Therefore, she was more willing to believe that Chris was laughing with her, a slightly ambiguous joke.

'Maybe he said that to all the girls. '

Umbridge kept repeating this sentence in his heart, using it to dispel the idea of ​​actually wanting to kiss him.

In general, Umbridge can be said to have made a lot of money this time.

Not only got the account book between the school director and Hogwarts, but also got the support from Slytherin House.

This will undoubtedly be extremely beneficial to her future development in Hogwarts.

However, after Umbridge sent Chris out of the office, the gentle smile on her face disappeared and was replaced by a cruel and indifferent expression.

The free stuff is the most expensive!

Umbridge still understands this truth. In the situation just now, Chris agreed without making any request. This is really weird!
"It seems that the boy's ambition just now is not small!"

Umbridge picked up a teddy bear puppet that was on a side cabinet, and talked to the doll.

And after she finished speaking, she pouted again, and while letting the puppet's mouth open and close, she said in a twisted falsetto:

"It's okay! You are the best, Dolores! None of them are your opponents!"

"Oh! I can't thank you enough, dear Bear!"

"You're welcome, we're best friends!"

With Umbridge talking to himself, the night gradually deepened, and Chris, who was walking in the darkness, had an evil smile on his face inexplicably.

……

The next day, the sun rose as usual, and the dazzling golden sunlight shone through the glass into the castle. While illuminating the entire Hogwarts, it seemed to be driving away the evil that once existed here.

The Charms classroom on the fourth floor is undoubtedly the best-lit place in Hogwarts except for the Ravenclaw lounge. The Badgers take Charms lessons from Professor Flitwick.

As Christmas is getting closer, the temperature is dropping rapidly recently.

In this environment, the students were drowsy from the warm sunshine.

If this was a history of magic class, Mike believed that most of the people here would be dreaming within 5 minutes of the professor announcing the class.

But in this current spell class, no one is sleeping.

The reason for this is the short man on the podium who needs to step on a pile of thick books to show his head on the podium——Professor Flitwick.

"The next owl exam will be the most important exam in your life, you must hurry up and work hard..."

Professor Flitwick on the podium said so, and when he said this, he would wave his arms from time to time to increase the authority of his words.

"I bet he's said that to us no less than ten times! I'll remember it for him!"

Franklin tilted his head, secretly talking to Mike.

However, as soon as the words fell, I heard Professor Flitwick roaring on the podium:
"Franklin! What are you doing!"

"Professor! Sorry..."

"You don't need to talk about it!" Professor Flitwick said with a rare gloomy face, "A paper on the analysis of the Hardening Curse (Phantom Slate), [-] words! It must be handed over to me before seven o'clock tonight!"

"What! This is too much! Can you..."

"No! This is a punishment for not listening carefully to the lectures and affecting the others' learning!"

Professor Flitwick's words instantly turned Franklin's face into ashes, knowing that there was no room for maneuver in this matter, so he could only start thinking about how to write the paper.

When Professor Flitwick on the podium saw Franklin admitting the punishment, he turned his head and put on a kind smile and said to Mike:
"Mike, did you understand the key points of the Hardening Curse I just said?"

"Yes, Professor." McTen stood up abruptly, "The Hardening Curse is..."

"Okay, okay, I believe you, sit down quickly." Professor Flitwick still had a smile on his face, "Mike, how about I change your seat for you."

Speaking of Professor Flitwick, he pointed to a space in front of him,
"You look very good here, you can see the subtle movements of my hands more clearly when you sit here! (Flitwick gestured and waved his wand)"

Mike looked at the position that was almost close to the podium, his scalp was a little numb, and he said hastily:

"No professor! My current position is very good!"

"That's fine." Professor Flitwick sighed regretfully, "Then you have to be careful yourself, don't be influenced by the people around you!"

With that said, Professor Flitwick gave Franklin another look.

Mike nodded hurriedly, and then Professor Flitwick stopped, and continued to talk about the key points of knowledge about the Hardening Curse.

Two hours later, after assigning a lot of homework to everyone, Professor Flitwick finally announced the dismissal of the get out of class. As soon as he left the classroom, Franklin took Mike to complain:
"Has Professor Flitwick gone crazy these two days? It's okay to leave more homework every time. Today, I was asked to write a paper because of this trivial matter. That's [-] words! I won't be able to finish it until tomorrow." ah!"

Hearing this, Mike smiled awkwardly.

To be honest, Professor Flitwick's state is indeed a bit abnormal these days. He seems to be too worried about everyone's owl exam, especially for Mike. Be very gentle.

"Don't take it to heart, at most I'll help you write an outline for that thesis."

"Really?" Franklin was excited. "That would be great!"

Looking at Franklin who had regained his vitality, a smile appeared on Mike's face, and when the two were talking and laughing, a scene beyond their expectations appeared in the auditorium ahead.
