Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1036: Anti-toad party
What happened to Cedric was a wake-up call for everyone.
In order to prevent himself from becoming a victim of Umbridge's abuse of Veritaserum, Harry had to urgently hold a DA meeting to discuss with everyone how to deal with this matter.
Under the gaze of DA members, Cedric described in detail his experience of being called to drink tea by the toad, and reminded everyone to be vigilant.
"The toad should have no reason to suspect us, and we didn't take the "Guide to Self-Defense." A Ravenclaw girl said.
"That's what I thought at first. However, after visiting Umbridge's office, I feel that she may not be able to bear it anymore. Mass screening will happen sooner or later." Cedric shook his head and said, "I dare say she must be very sure that Dumbledore's Army does exist."
"I'm not surprised that the toad would do that, don't take any chances." Fred reminded.
"The toad has already used Veritaserum. This thing is an illegal item. Even the Ministry of Magic is very taboo to use this kind of thing, but she just took it out and used it on a student?" Harry glanced at everyone present, Said calmly, "If you still have any luck with this, you can only pray that this kind of thing doesn't happen to you."
"We signed a contract, before the end of this semester, there will be a price to pay for betrayal." Hermione reminded.
The expressions on everyone's faces were a bit ugly, and they even glared at Hermione.
"This is a voluntary risk, and no one has forced you from the beginning to the end." Harry reminded calmly.
Yes, it's completely voluntary, and I double-checked before joining, but unfortunately some people have forgotten.
"Okay, let's talk about everyone's ideas, one by one." Hermione changed the subject to avoid embarrassment for everyone.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for someone to offer to distribute a Veritaserum antidote to Umbridge's Veritaserum.
"I think the focus now should be to stop the toad from continuing to use Veritaserum on the students." Burns said, raising his hand. "We should report it to the Ministry of Magic. The toad will definitely have some scruples and dare not act recklessly."
As soon as Burns put forward this somewhat naive idea, it was rejected by most members.
"The toad is Fudge's minion, and now the entire Ministry of Magic is at Fudge's discretion. Isn't it self-inflicted if you report it?" Ernie McMillan directly vetoed this absurd decision, "If you dare to do that , I dare say that the next one to be invited to drink tea by Toad will definitely be you."
"We can tell Headmaster Dumbledore about this."
Hermione also didn't agree with Bones' proposal, because Toad was with the Ministry of Magic. As for whether telling Dumbledore would be useful, Hermione didn't know, but this is a good idea, you can try it.
"I don't think the effect will be great, so it's best not to have too much expectations. The toad has already used the education order to control Hogwarts. Even Dumbledore can't do anything to the toad." Cedric is not optimistic Hermione wrote to the headmaster about this matter, "I am more inclined that Dumbledore plans to wait for Cornelius Fudge to step down, and then let Umbridge go out by himself. That is undoubtedly the best way. After all, Dumbledore is the headmaster. There will be concerns in some aspects, and it is impossible to be unscrupulous like us.”
"Just tell Dumbledore about this, maybe he's too busy recently and may not have time to pay attention to what's going on in the school, otherwise he will definitely not allow the toad to use Veritaserum to torture the students." Harry In fact, he agrees with Cedric's statement more, but he still found an excuse for Dumbledore. If it wasn't for the toad who went too far and targeted himself everywhere, Harry actually didn't want to do this, ignoring him like Albert did. Toad, wouldn't it be better to wait for the toad to leave after watching the other party's jokes?
It's a pity that Toad obviously won't allow him to do that.
Fred and George raised their hands and said, "Do we have a one-shot solution?"
"What way?" Someone immediately asked
"We can turn the toad into a real toad and let her disappear temporarily for a few months. After Fudge steps down and gets out, we can turn the toad back. I think Professor Dumbledore will definitely not continue to let her Stay at Hogwarts." Fred and George looked at each other and said their proposals.
"Is this going too far?"
"As if her use of Veritaserum was not too much for us." George didn't expect everyone to agree to the plan, but just said it to remind everyone.
"Who will do it?"
"We can do it." Fred said, "My Transfiguration Charm is not bad."
"It's very risky to do this." Cedric frowned and reminded, "It will definitely alarm the Ministry of Magic, and there will be at least six months until the holiday."
"I think that's a good idea."
"Yes, it's normal for something to happen to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and we can only lock up the toad temporarily."
The proposal of the Weasley twins was immediately recognized by everyone, and even they almost praised the Weasley twins as heroes.
However, no one expected that George suddenly said: "Of course, if it is going to be done, everyone must sign."
Obviously you can't do this kind of thing by yourself. If you really want to do it, you have to pull everyone here into the water.
It can only be said that the Weasley twins are smarter than before in the years of living in the same dormitory with Albert.
As soon as George finished speaking, the original voice of echo stopped abruptly, and the atmosphere at the scene became very awkward.
"This is a backup plan. Whether to do it or not will be discussed at that time." George didn't care about the embarrassment of other people's expressions, he already knew who most of the people here were.
Hermione didn't give everyone time to continue the discussion, she shook her head and said, "I don't agree with doing this either, it's a bit risky."
"Any other ideas?" Harry asked, looking around the crowd.
"I think the antidote for Veritaserum is good." Someone immediately suggested.
No way, although Fred and George's solution can solve the problem, it is too extreme, and they obviously don't want to get involved.
Of course, if Fred and George didn't ask for autographs, most people would definitely agree with them and regard them as heroes.
It seems to be to alleviate the embarrassment. Everyone agrees that the antidote of using Veritaserum is not all for the purpose of alleviating the embarrassment, but because this method is simpler and can match wits with Umbridge , not long ago, Cedric just explained to everyone how he was called to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.
"It's unreliable to distribute the antidote for Veritaserum to everyone. None of us know how to make that kind of potion." Hermione directly poured cold water on everyone, "Of course, if any of you can If we make an antidote, we will provide you with medicinal materials as much as possible."
The voices in the responsive room stopped abruptly again, and they turned their attention to Cedric.
"Don't look at me, I don't know how, the antidote for Veritaserum was given by Albert." Cedric said that he could do nothing about it, maybe because he felt the atmosphere of the scene, he asked, "Do you have any? Who knows how to cook..."
There is no doubt that no one knows how to brew an antidote.
"We can find Albert, I think he..."
"He's not free..." Hermione interrupted helplessly, "So, give up that unrealistic idea, Albert has already provided us with a lot of help."
"As for the antidote formula for making Veritaserum, we have already obtained it." Fred explained, "If you want to see the antidote formula and steps, you can come to me and copy a copy."
"Is it difficult to make it according to the formula?" Naturally, there is no shortage of students who are good at potions.
"The difficulty is very high, and even if other people really brew it, I can't guarantee that everyone will dare to drink that semi-finished product." Cedric shook his head and said, he was too clear, most students dare not drink it at all Potions prepared by myself.
In the end, they failed to reach an agreement, and Hermione recorded everyone's proposals one by one.
"Then what should we do, the toad may use Veritaserum on everyone at any time?"
Problems need to be fixed anyway, as they say, the toads could add veritaserum to their drinks at any moment.
"Don't worry, we have a backup plan." Harry looked at Fred and George.
The Weasley brothers walked in front of everyone under the complicated eyes of the people.
"The method is actually very simple, that is to delay time and buy time for everyone." Fred began to explain to everyone how to deal with Umbridge, and there are many ways to delay time, such as secretly Cast a spell on the toad, causing her to fall unconscious.
"Anyway, as long as you send someone to the school hospital, whether it's Umbridge or yourself, time will be bought for coming and going." George echoed.
What if the toad doesn't give up?
"If Toad still doesn't give up, take someone to make trouble and throw poison gas bombs into his office, so that Umbridge can't interrogate you." Fred said without thinking, they have done similar things a lot .
"If Umbridge really insists on it, we can only try the Oblivion Curse to make the toad forget about it." George added, "Although we have only practiced the Oblivion Curse on mice, But I think it should be no problem to use it on a toad."
"Anyone know this spell?"
"I probably know the principle, but I haven't used it." Hermione said, besides Hermione, there are several people who can forget the spell.
"You'd better practice your hands with a mouse first."
"This is probably the case. Although it may be troublesome, at least it can avoid drinking Toad's Veritaserum." Harry clapped his hands, took out a few boxes of candy and said, "Fred and George are willing to give you free Provide two quick-acting skipping candies, one for practice and one for emergency use. Of course, if you use them all, you will have to pay for them yourself."
"Okay, everyone come here in order to get your favorite candies."
People were a little surprised by the generosity of Fred and George. You must know that there are quite a few DA members today, and this batch of quick-acting class skipping candy costs at least 7 Galleons.
Moreover, what surprised them was that there was going to be a live drill later.
"The other thing is that we should spread this method to the entire castle, so that the toad can't figure out who is the DA member." George reminded.
"No problem!" Harry looked at Lee Jordan.
"Should be no problem, I think everyone will find it very interesting." Li Qiaodan said with a smile, "Nowadays there are many people who hate toads in school."
"Next, let us show you what to do when you encounter that situation." George signaled everyone to disperse, and then he will cover up how to delay for everyone.
The demonstration of the two is actually very interesting. For example, after secretly using the leg-lifting spell to knock someone down, they are using the stun spell, pretending that Umbridge was knocked unconscious.
I don't know why, but everyone feels that this scene seems familiar.
After Lee Jordan on the cushion was awakened, there was a burst of warm applause from around.
"To do this, you need to be concealed enough, and you can also complete it with the help of others. Don't let others find out that something is wrong, otherwise it will be very troublesome." George explained to everyone, "If you can't do it, Another way is the easiest."
When the two were walking, Fred, who fell behind, suddenly stuffed a quick-acting skipping class candy into his mouth, and then passed out on the ground.
Then, there is no after.
"In this case, the toad can only send you to the school hospital." George continued to explain, "I can guarantee that a simple recovery spell will have no effect on the stun effect caused by the stun sugar. Of course, if you are afraid of falling If it hurts, you can also try Nosebleed Nougat or Tutu Tang, anyway, there are many types to choose from.”
Hermione wrote down what they explained on the blackboard, and Harry summed up some of the prank spells that might be used in it. At that time, they need to practice various spells that may come in handy, and conduct actual drills separately. Avoid revealing stuffing at that time.
As long as you learn it, it's not a problem even if you want to secretly bully Umbridge.
Although the solution given by Fred and George is not the best solution, everyone finds it very interesting and eager to try.
"I suggest that you don't try it casually." Cedric had to stand up and remind everyone, "These are just emergency plans. If possible, it's best not to encounter such a thing. Of course, if you are good at forgetting If it is a curse, maybe it would be the best choice to give the toad a Forgetting Curse, but... it is best not to encounter it, no one can guarantee that their luck is good enough."
"Okay, now everyone come one by one, in pairs, one pretends to be Umbridge, and the other pretends that you are about to be taken to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office." Harry clapped his hands and said, " Let's start grouping now!"
There is no doubt that the party ended smoothly.
Although many people's acting skills are very exaggerated, they all leave the Room of Requirement with a smile.
"Do you think this method is reliable?" Hermione who stayed at the end asked.
"I don't know, but at least it's a way." Harry shook his head.
"I'd say there's a way to make Toad disappear for a few months," said Fred.
"Or, a few months in the hospital," George added.
"You guys actually came up with so many quick-acting skipping candies this time." Ron was a little surprised that Fred and George would provide everyone with candies for free.
"We don't suffer. If we want people to buy candy, we must let them know the effect of the candy." Fred shrugged, "Albert calls this an advertisement."
"It's worth spending a few Galleons on an advertisement." George echoed, "It can also solve the problem of Veritaserum and give everyone a good impression."
"Albert called it killing three birds with one stone," said Lee Jordan.
"This group of guys are really rich~IndoMTL.com~ No, it should be said that Albert is really rich, let them squander like this." Ron shook his head puzzledly, he really couldn't understand what killed three birds with one stone.
"They actually made a lot of money."
Harry felt that they were not at a loss, and Albert Anderson was not one to suffer.
"They're accumulating popularity." Hermione glanced at Ron and explained, "They're going to open a joke shop, and the customers in the shop must be Hogwarts students, so they're going Accumulate enough popularity for the store before leaving school, I think this is probably Albert's reminder to them, don't forget, there are also advertisements they advertise in the "Daily Prophet."
