Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 384 Dumbledore Escapes

Dumbledore, with his back to the window, seemed to have noticed Mike's gaze, and he suddenly smiled and winked mischievously at Mike.

Mike's slightly opened mouth closed immediately, and the admiration he had originally had completely disappeared.

This action of Dumbledore is really out of harmony!

In Mike's impression, a person as powerful as him should be taciturn and ruthless, but Dumbledore's performance is so... approachable, and even a little dumbfounding!
"Are you all right?"

Dumbledore said with a smile.

"It's okay!" Professor McGonagall helped Ron and Neville stand up, and then looked at Fudge and the others who were lying silently on the ground, "Are they all right?"

"Don't worry, I'm very measured. Dai Lisi and the others can testify for me." Dumbledore smiled and nodded to the portraits of previous headmasters on the wall, and then looked worriedly at the man named Jin beside him. Sly's black man, "But I had no choice but to attack Kingsley. He was still speaking for me just now. Promise me, Minerva, and apologize to him later.

Also, Fudge and the others should be waking up soon, we'd better not let them know that we had a conversation.So you'd better pretend to be knocked out by me too, in this way..."

"Where are you going?" Mag interrupted suddenly, "Is it Black's place?"

"Oh, no." Dumbledore pursed his lips and shook his head, "Don't worry, I won't run away and hide. It won't be long before Fudge regrets that I kicked me out of Hogwarts , I'll be back when the time comes, I promise you."

Professor McGonagall frowned and nodded worriedly.

And Mike stepped forward and said:
"Dumbledore, I don't understand why you..."

"No, Mike, I have to do this. This is the best solution." Dumbledore smiled kindly, "Of course, I also have something to ask you."

"Tell me!"

"Okay." Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction, "I hope you can teach Harry how to seal his brain. Oh! Don't rush to refuse, I know you have already learned Occlumency, and the level is still high. Not low.

Listen, Mike.You gotta teach Harry Occlumency, it's important, understand? "

Mike looked at Dumbledore's serious expression, and finally nodded.

On the other hand, Snape, who had already got up, became very ugly after hearing Dumbledore's words.

You must know that Harry Potter's original Occlumency instructor was him, and now Dumbledore has entrusted someone else, which is a great shame to him!
Of course, he also understands very well that it is most correct for Dumbledore to ask others to teach Harry Potter, because Harry Potter is extremely resistant to him, and in this state Harry cannot learn the brain at all. Occlusion.

So the most fundamental reason why he felt unhappy was that in this way he would not have a reason to bully Harry in a blatant manner.

It's just that Dumbledore didn't pay attention to Snape's expression. After seeing Mike nod, Dumbledore smiled with satisfaction, and then said:

"Okay, I should go too."

After saying that, the phoenix Fawkes lying on Dumbledore's shoulder flapped its wings and screamed, and then a lot of flames erupted from its body, enveloping it and Dumbledore!

Gradually, the flames disappeared, and Dumbledore and Fawkes also disappeared.

Mike and the others were taken aback for a moment, and Ron and Neville were even more eager to catch up.

However, at this moment, several people lying on the floor suddenly moved.

Professor McGonagall quickly pushed Ron and Neville to the ground, and at the same time signaled Mike with his eyes to do the same.

But without her reminding him, Mike was already lying on the ground, pretending to be unconscious.

Not long after they lay down, the senior Aurors first got up from the ground, and then Fudge and Umbridge woke up one after another.

"Where did he go? Find him quickly!"

Fudge rubbed his head and cried anxiously.

Dawlish and the others quickly reacted and began to observe the surroundings.

However, there was no sign of Dumbledore at this moment, and the surroundings were full of messy garbage and various wood fragments.

"Quick! Quick! Stairs!" Fudge yelled. "He can't Apparate at Hogwarts. He must be running down the stairs. Go after them!"

Dawlish shook his head helplessly, and said:
"It's useless, Mr. Minister. I'm afraid you forgot that Dumbledore also has a phoenix, and the phoenix can apparate people with him. And worse, the anti-apparition in Hogwarts The curse has no effect on the phoenix. That means Dumbledore should have been sent away by the phoenix."

Fudge stared blankly at Dawlish for a while before reacting. He kicked viciously on the wall. While kicking and shaking the magic portraits on it, he also got a burst of curses from the portraits.

At this time, Mike, Mag and the others also pretended to have just woken up and stood up.

"Hmph! Minerva." Fudge patted the dust off his body, and said viciously, "He won't always be so lucky, I promise!"

"Really? I don't think so."

As if he was irritated by Professor McGonagall's words, he waved fiercely at McGonagall, Mike and the others, and said:

"We'll see when the time comes! And now, you'd better take them out of here!"

Professor McGonagall did not continue to say anything, and silently led Mike, Ron and others towards the door.

Mike took a deep look at the embarrassed Fudge, with a meaningful smile on his face.

……

Today is Friday, and Mike and the others were supposed to go to class normally.

But after leaving the principal's office, Professor McGonagall asked Mike and the others to return directly to their respective lounges so that they could make up for the fatigue from last night.

Mike didn't have any psychological burden, so he slept soundly.

And when he woke up and went to the auditorium to have dinner, he found that a notice had been posted all over Hogwarts.

Order of the Ministry of Magic
Dolores-Jane Umbridge (Senior Inquisitor) hereby replaces Dumbledore as Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

The above regulations comply with the "No. 20 No. [-] Education Order".

signature:

minister of magic

Cornelius Oswald Fudge
Seeing that Mike woke up, the members of the Mutual Aid Society dutifully began to report to Mike the changes in the school that day.

It was only then that Mike discovered that Hogwarts now has all sorts of opinions about this notice.

Someone swears that Dumbledore and the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic launched a terrifying battle, and even retreated after killing several Aurors.

Some people also said that Fudge and the others attacked Dumbledore, but they were all defeated by Dumbledore. Poor Fudge was seriously injured, his head was swollen as big as a pumpkin, and he was lying on St. .

But no matter what the statement is, one thing is confirmed.

That was when a violent conflict broke out between Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic, and then Dumbledore left Hogwarts.

As for the punishment of Mike and others, the members of the Mutual Aid Association also inquired about some news.

The new principal Umbridge doesn't seem to have any intention of punishing Mike and others.

Mike guessed that she had just taken over Hogwarts and was immersed in the feast of power and had no time to take care of them.

Shaking his head, Mike came to the corner of the auditorium, where Harry, Hermione and others were gathering to comfort the masked Ron and the disappointed Neville.

"Mike, are you okay?"

Hermione stood up excitedly from her seat and groped for Mike vigorously.

"I'm fine, Hermione." Mike stopped Hermione's movement and said with a smile, "I've slept and I feel great."

"You actually fell asleep?"

Ron said in disbelief.

"Of course!"

"Oh! That's great, I feel terrible!" Ron lowered his head in frustration, "I never closed my eyes at all."

It was said that Harry and Hermione looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes.

Obviously, they had persuaded Ron long before Mike's arrival, but the effect was not very good.

"Dumbledore is gone, and it's all my fault! If it weren't for my inability to keep a secret, that old toad Umbridge wouldn't be able to be Headmaster at all!"

As soon as this remark came out, Mike noticed that Hermione on the side lowered her head very disappointed.

Mike knew very well that she must be blaming herself at this moment.

Because the list full of members of the DA Army has actually been kept by her.

But in order to save trouble, she didn't hide the list properly, but hung it directly in the Response Room and used it as an ordinary roll call booklet.

And this also allowed Umbridge's men to easily find the list, which indirectly forced Dumbledore to leave Hogwarts.

Mike didn't speak, but patted Hermione on the back lightly, and gave her a comforting look.

The latter squeezed out a very reluctant smile at Mike.

"Oh! I can't blame you!" Harry frowned. "We all know very well that Umbridge used horrific torture on you in order to make you speak, and the result will be the same no matter who you choose!"

Hearing that Mike's eyebrows trembled, he looked at Neville and said:
"Not always."

Harry also noticed Neville, and the expression on his face immediately became very embarrassed.

"No, I'm just a waste!" Ron hung his head in frustration, "They used the same torture on Neville, but Neville insisted on not saying anything, but I... woo woo woo!"

Mike and the others looked at each other silently, while Neville raised his hands a little at a loss.

After crying for a while, Ron raised his head again and said to Neville:

"Neville, if anyone still says that you are not worthy of Gryffindor College, I will definitely kick their ass! Your courage is stronger than all of us! If only I had your courage!"

Mike nodded silently. As a traveler who has read the complete original work, he has a deep impression of the role of Neville.

This little chubby boy, who seemed cowardly and incompetent at first, actually had great courage hidden in his heart. He is definitely the little wizard who best represents the spirit of Gryffindor in Hogwarts.

Such a role is worthy of any boast!

Harry and the others also nodded when they heard the words, but they didn't speak. It could be seen that their moods were not very good because of Dumbledore's departure.

Mike shook his head and said to Harry:

"Harry, are you still learning Occlumency with Snape?"

As soon as this remark came out, Harry glanced at Mike in surprise, and the expression on his face became very strange.

"Uh, yes." Harry said awkwardly, "but recently I had an accident, and I found out... Hey! Forget it, let's not talk about it!"

Seeing Harry's dejected look, Mike suddenly understood what was going on.

The plot of the original book should have already happened. Harry should have used the armor to bounce back the Legilimency spell that Snape used to test the effect of his brain closure, so he knew what happened between Snape and his father.

As for the experience between Snape and Harry Potter's father, James Potter, in Mike's view, it was a tragedy.

The young Snape entered Hogwarts with his beautiful childhood sweetheart Lily Potter, and the two entered Slytherin College and Gryffindor College respectively.

Then James Potter took Lily away from Snape with his humorous character, handsome appearance and prominent family background.

And because of jealousy and Gryffindor's natural dislike of Slytherin, James, together with Sirius and others, brutally bullied Snape.

Of course, this is completely McGonagall's personal opinion. The love-hate relationship between them is too complicated to say who is at fault and who is not. The whole is miserable.

And what Harry saw was exactly how his father bullied Snape.

That's why Harry's expression was so tangled.

After all, his father had always been a righteous and good man in his fantasy, and now he suddenly discovered his father's dark history when he was young, which made Harry completely unacceptable for a while.

Shaking his head, Mike went on to say:

"Well, what I want to say is that I actually know Occlumency. I didn't tell you because Snape's teaching skills are better. Now if you think Snape can't teach you, then You can try to let me teach you."

Hearing this, the expressions of Harry and Hermione became brilliant.

"Really!? This is really great!" Harry jumped up from his seat and shouted excitedly, "I can finally stop putting up with Snape's old bat!"

"Then come to my dormitory directly after class tomorrow, and I will have classes with you there. Originally, the Room of Response was the best choice, but now... hey, let's not talk about it."

"Got it, I'll be there on time!"

Mike nodded in satisfaction and was about to leave, but at this moment Hermione said weakly:
"that……"

"What's the matter, Hermione?"

"Can I go? I want to learn Occlumency too."

"Of course, I welcome everyone who wants to learn." Mike said with a smile. "You too, Ron, Neville. If you want to learn, you can come too."
