Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1039: Strong onlookers
"Ahhhhhhhh..."
In the Hogwarts castle in the early morning, there was a sudden, extremely shrill scream, which woke up the students who had just fallen asleep.
"It's started, it's started!"
Listening to the movement in the room, Albert turned over lazily, and Lee Jordan's voice came from the other end of the room. He groped to open the curtains around the bed, looked at the Weasley brothers and Lee Jordan who were about to watch the excitement, stretched out his hand to cover his yawn, and murmured: "Next, that guy should be quiet for a long time. "
"Wake up!"
Lee Jordan poured Albert a cup of strong tea with a smile.
Albert looked at the cup of strong tea with disgust, wondering how he would sleep after drinking it.
Holding his yawn again, he got up from the bed, picked up the cloak hanging beside him, put it on himself, and followed other curious students to the common room.
A large group of good students in pajamas and cloaks who just got up from the bed have gathered here, and they are gathering together in twos and threes, whispering and discussing the screams just now.
"Quiet, who knows what's going on." Albert looked around and asked, "I heard screaming just now,"
"Something seems to have happened in the castle." A boy raised his hand first and said.
"It sounds like a banshee scream."
"I feel more like someone is being severely tortured."
"I suspect it was the scream of a toad?"
Everyone talked with each other, and finally the scream of the toad was widely recognized, because it was not the first time that the toad made such a sound at night, but this time it was particularly shrill.
"Prefect, is there a prefect here?" Albert raised his hand to signal everyone to keep quiet, and three cloaked prefects squeezed through the crowd and came to Albert.
"Who of you want to go out with me to see what's going on outside, you don't need too many people."
As soon as Albert finished speaking, several people raised their hands.
"Very well, the three of you, and the four of you take your wands and go out with me to see what's going on?" Albert took out his wand from his cloak pocket and said, "The rest of the prefects Stay and maintain order, don't let them run around, waiting for news."
Although many students expressed dissatisfaction with this, all dissatisfaction can only be swallowed. As the chairman of the student union, Albert has a strong authority in Gryffindor.
"There are a few of you, go back and put on your cloak, don't catch a cold and cause trouble for Madam Pomfrey." Albert said to several students who hurried over in only their pajamas.
"Okay, those who have been ordered will follow me, and those who don't want to go can stay!"
No one wants to stay, let alone the president of the student union this time.
"Is it really the scream of a toad?" Fred said with full of acting skills: "Although that guy screamed a lot the night before."
"But it's the first time I've screamed so badly." George echoed.
Ron and Hermione looked at each other and nodded in agreement with what the twin brothers said. They naturally knew what was going on with the screams just now, but they didn't expect that Albert would personally lead a team to watch the toad's tragedy, which really made them very sad. Surprised, the only regret was that Harry didn't follow.
"Is this really okay? I mean the professors should..." Shanna reminded in a low voice.
"No professor got up to check." George said, staring at the Marauder's Map in his hand.
"Professors are probably too lazy to take care of it, and everyone can't stand it again and again."
Although the seven people brought out by Albert this time were all his own people, none of them dared to act recklessly, so as not to be seen as flawed.
Now everyone is a brave Gryffindor student who heard the screams and came out to check the situation.
"I just got in touch with Cedric, and he also brought people out to...cough, check the situation." Fred quickly changed his rhetoric, and asked in a low voice, "Do you think Ravenclaw will be there? Waiting for someone to come over to check the situation, maybe it will be very interesting then."
"80% of the time, curiosity is human nature."
Albert tightened his cloak, and hurried towards the Defense Against the Dark Arts office. During the trip to the secret passage on the fifth floor, I also met Nick who was almost headless.
"You guys, this is..." Nick looked at Albert who was leading the team, frowned slightly and said, "Why did you come out at this time?"
"They said that someone might be suffering a lot, so I brought someone over to see what was going on." Albert said calmly, "Nick, do you know what's going on?"
"I don't know too much." Nick said shaking his head.
"Then come with us and help us find the way ahead. If you find anything wrong, please send us an alarm." Albert said to Gryffindor's ghost.
"You really can summon ghosts." Nick muttered, but he didn't refuse. Nick had actually heard the scream just now, it was too horrific, no wonder Albert was vigilant, worried that any dangerous elements would break into Hogwarts.
A group of people quickly came to the third floor through the secret passage. When they approached the corridor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, they heard some noises.
"Who is it?"
Albert gestured for everyone to stop and asked Nick to help them see what was going on on the other side of the corner.
"It's Filch and a bunch of Hufflepuffs," Nick said to the group.
After receiving the news from Nick, Albert led people into that corridor.
At this moment, Filch was staring angrily at the group of Hufflepuff students in pajamas and cloaks, but strangely, no professor was present.
Seeing that another group of students came, Filch looked even more annoyed, muttering about staying up in the middle of the night... all the confinement and so on.
"What happened?"
Albert ignored Filch's thoughts and cast a searching look at Cedric.
"We heard a terrible scream, and when we came to check, we saw that Umbridge had turned into a toad." Cedric had a stern face, as if trying not to laugh.
"Umbridge turned into a toad?"
Several Gryffindor students also gathered around, wanting to see Umbridge's ugly appearance.
"This appearance really fits her image." Someone muttered softly.
Umbridge's skin was rough and looked like the skin of a toad. What surprised them most was that Umbridge's face looked like a toad in the shape of a human.
Everyone started whispering, discussing what happened to Umbridge, how he turned into such a toad, completely forgetting that he should be sent to the school hospital.
Actually, Filch wanted to do this, but Cedric stopped him, suggesting that Umbridge might have a contagious skin disease.
Not long after, a group of Ravenclaw students led by Katrina appeared in the corridor outside the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, and the originally spacious corridor suddenly became crowded.
Everyone was talking to each other about what happened here, and whispers filled the corridor.
"It's disgusting, the toad really turned into a toad."
"Does she have some skin disease, will it be passed on to others?"
"I think it should be the curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."
"Quiet."
Albert signaled for everyone to keep quiet, and then asked them to leave enough space for a while so that they were not all gathered around here before drawing out his wand and using the Revival Charm on the unconscious Umbridge.
The fainted Umbridge soon regained consciousness in a daze.
"Professor, who attacked you, and what happened here?" Albert took a step back, and a ball of light flew out from the tip of the wand and hovered over Umbridge's head, allowing everyone to see See what the toad looks like.
"Ouch... the more you look at it, the more disgusting you become."
"She really turned into a toad."
"Did she faint herself?"
"We'd better stay away from her, maybe some kind of skin infection."
"It is likely to be a curse, and this is not the first time that the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor has cursed."
"Look, she's awake."
Among the whispers of the students, Umbridge opened his eyes, and at first seemed a little dazed, slumped on the cold marble floor.
"Professor, what happened, how did you become like this, and who attacked you." Albert asked again.
This time, Albert stepped back even further.
Umbridge, who had just woken up, looked around in confusion, and found that the students around her were staring at her with very strange eyes, and there were even whispers from the students in her ears.
"Professor, do you really not know what happened?"
When Umbridge raised her hand to look at her palm, a mirror fell on her palm with Albert's gentle voice.
Looking at the figure in the mirror, Umbridge was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something, threw the mirror off his hand, stretched out his hand to scratch his cheek, raised his head and let out an incomparably miserable scream.
Then, she passed out like this.
Yes, Umbridge knocked himself out.
Everyone looked at Albert in unison, it was definitely on purpose just now!
Absolutely!
"Very interesting, isn't it."
Peeves appeared out of nowhere, clutching his belly and looking at the unconscious toad, he giggled.
The others couldn't help laughing too.
Albert secretly cast a spell on Toad, causing her to fall into a semi-conscious state.
"Peeves, you did it!"
Filch immediately turned his attention to Peeves.
"There is no evidence, be careful to sue you for slander." Peeves made a face at Filch, and happily circled around the void like a fish swimming.
"What happened to Peeves!" Albert asked.
"Isn't this the little devil's boss?" Peeves flipped somersaults in the air, grinning at the crowd from between his own legs, "I just heard the screams coming, and saw her suddenly Screaming, rushed out of the office, and... fell down here."
"I've never seen anyone as interesting as her," said Peeves with a grin. "She looks like a...toad now."
"Ahem, we should send her to the school hospital, Madam Pomfrey must be able to cure her." Albert waved his wand to conjure up a stretcher, then moved Umbridge onto the stretcher, and a group of People sent Umbridge to the school hospital in such a mighty way.
Meanwhile, everyone was whispering and discussing what had happened to Toad.
As for Filch, he was left alone and ignored.
After they woke up Madam Pomfrey and put her on the hospital bed with her face twitching, Albert asked Cedric to explain the situation to her.
"Mr. Administrator, please inform Dumbledore. If the principal is not here, please inform Professor McGonagall, or other professors, to let them know what happened here."
After finishing the order, Albert turned his head and said to the students standing outside the school hospital, "Go back and rest, and don't wander around outside in the middle of the night."
"It's really restless for a moment." Albert stretched out his hand to cover his yawn, and beckoned the other Gryffindor students to go back to sleep.
…
In less than half an hour, the news that Umbridge had turned into a toad spread throughout Hogwarts at an astonishing speed like a firebolt, and even Headmaster Dumbledore was shot. Alarmed, he came to visit in the middle of the night, and several deans also appeared in the school hospital.
As for whether this group of people came to visit the doctor, it is really hard to say.
Anyway, Professor McGonagall kept a straight face, Professor Flitwick and Professor Sprout were talking in a low voice, Snape looked at Umbridge on the hospital bed with a very strange expression, and Madam Pomfrey He was talking to Dumbledore about Umbridge's condition.
"...She may have some kind of skin disease. To be honest, I suspected it was caused by a spell at first, and gave her a small amount of powerful recovery potion, but the effect was not good." Madam Pomfrey read Umbridge, who was on the eye bed, suggested: "May I suggest that she be transferred to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Wounds for more formal treatment?"
"Can it be cured?"
Dumbledore looked up and down at Umbridge's toad-like rough skin, and poked it with his slender fingers.
"It will take time, I think it should be fine to cure her." Madam Pomfrey was disgusted, but she did not refuse.
"Then I will trouble you." After chatting with Madam Pomfrey, Dumbledore walked outside, and Snape followed.
"What did you find?"
Dumbledore slowed down to wait for Snape.
"Her appearance is very strange, it seems to be caused by incomplete deformation."
"Minerva also said similar things. Even Madam Pomfrey used a strong recovery potion on Professor Umbridge, but the effect was not very obvious." Dumbledore was actually a little puzzled, but he Instinctively, Snape's words should be true.
Umbridge's appearance is indeed very similar to the symptoms caused by deformation.
Of course, Dumbledore also suspected that some of the students might have caused Umbridge to become like this. Umbridge has had a lot of bad luck lately, and even Peeves is messing with her behind her back.
"No, I'm referring to the possibility of taking certain potions, such as compound potions." Snape reminded.
"Can compound medicine cause such symptoms?" Dumbledore asked in surprise.
"I don't know, but I think the compound potion should not be able to transform into animals." Snape speculated, "Also, what are you going to do with the Ministry of Magic? I think Mr. Minister..."
"The curse of Professor Defense Against the Dark Arts." Dumbledore said without hesitation, "Before we find out the reason, Professor Umbridge's illness is likely to be attributed to the curse~IndoMTL.com~ You should have guessed , this is likely to be..."
"We have no evidence of Severus," Dumbledore interrupted.
"Evidence?"
Looking at Dumbledore's leaving back, Snape repeated in a low voice.
He suspected that a student had given Umbridge a glass of compound potion mixed with toads. Although Snape didn't know what it would look like to turn into an animal using the Polyjuice Potion, Umbridge's appearance undoubtedly fit his guess.
