Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1042: Toad on the Christmas tree

"Where they've been occupying lately!"

Katrina, who was in the library doing her homework, complained to Albert that the "Defense Society" had been occupying the Room of Requirement.

As Christmas approaches, Katrina is getting busier and busier, not only juggling a lot of holiday homework, but also leading the prefects to help the professors decorate the castle.

Lately, she's been hoping to stay in the Room of Requirement and do her homework quietly, instead of being constantly disturbed.

I really don't know how the president of the student council has so many things to do. She suspects that she is so busy because the guy next to him often fishes.

Part of the reason, of course, is that Umbridge is still in the hospital, and the professors want to have a nice Christmas, or else they'll just have to deal with it.

"They're running out of time."

Albert stared at the notebook without looking up, and said calmly, "When Umbridge recovers and is discharged from the hospital, Hogwarts may not be peaceful again."

"I don't think so. God knows whether Umbridge will be hospitalized again!" Katrina glanced at Albert next to her, and continued: "By the way, I plan to stay at school for Christmas, By the way, I have done my vacation homework, and I can also do it by the way..."

"Isobel sent you back for Christmas," interrupted Albert.

"I've signed the student list," Katrina reminded with a glance.

Honestly, she's not interested in making fun of herself.

"It's just a small matter, just talk to Professor McGonagall." Albert could actually guess why Katrina didn't want to go back for the Christmas holidays, but reminded, "Mrs. McDougall will come too. Spend Christmas with us."

"At home?" Katrina asked with a raised eyebrow.

"No, somewhere else." Albert prepared a lot of safe houses, he didn't want to take the risk.

"Forget it, I'll be fine if I stay at school."

"Isobel said if you don't go back, then..." Albert looked away from the notebook, reached out and took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Katrina.

"She always likes to do this kind of thing in the name of being good for me, and doesn't care about my feelings at all." Katrina pouted and complained without looking at the contents of the envelope.

Even if she doesn't look at it, she can probably guess what it's about.

"It's really annoying." Albert nodded in agreement.

"It's just..."

Katrina just wanted to denounce Isobel when she heard Albert say again: Although I do it often.

Leave her speechless.

At this moment, a girl hurried towards this side and said to the two: "Toad disappeared in the school hospital. Professor McGonagall hopes that you can lead someone to find her whereabouts in the castle."

"Umbridge disappeared?" Katrina repeated oddly.

"Yes, she's missing. Professor McGonagall is in the school hospital." The girl gave Albert a sneaking glance and said, "I really hope she'll be missing until the end of the semester."

"I see, we'll go over here." Albert closed his note and stood up.

"Could it be the ghost of your roommates again!"

After the girl left in a hurry, Katrina cast a suspicious look at Albert. She felt that there was a high probability that Albert had ordered his group of daring roommates to do it. The purpose was to Let the toad disappear temporarily for a while, and solve the trouble directly from the source.

"The Defence Against the Dark Arts professor is already cursed." Albert didn't care about the accusation. "It's normal that something happens."

"What a waste of time."

Katrina had to put down her quill and go to the school hospital with Albert, "I'm sure you know where the toad is."

"Who knows?" Albert raised his hand and knocked on the door of the school hospital, then walked in with Katrina.

Professor McGonagall is speaking to Madam Pomfrey, and the prefects of the various houses are here, whispering to each other about Umbridge's disappearance.

"As you can see, Professor Umbridge has suddenly disappeared." Professor McGonagall looked around the two student council presidents and prefects and said, "We suspect that she is 'hidden' in Hogwarts City. Somewhere in Fort, I'm going to give you a surprise, I need you to mobilize other students to help find Professor Umbridge."

"Professor, what if I can't find it?" Ernie McMillan raised his hand and asked, "I heard... there have also been cases of Defence Against the Dark Arts professors disappearing before, maybe..."

"Whether or not Professor Umbridge is missing, we will try to find her."

Actually, Professor McGonagall's intention is already obvious, that is, it's enough to pretend.

If Umbridge is really like Rowena Smith, she can't do anything about it, she's already mobilized the entire school to help find someone.

As for finding no one, that's not her concern.

"I wish the toad suddenly disappeared."

"Is it really the curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor?"

……

After leaving the school hospital, Albert cleared his throat and said to the crowd, "Cough, as you can see, Umbridge's whereabouts are suddenly unknown."

Everyone stopped to look at Albert.

"It is obviously unrealistic for us to find Umbridge," Albert said to all the prefects, "so I hope that the prefects will share this news with the students of their respective colleges and mobilize the students of the whole school to help find them. people."

Whether others are willing to help is another matter.

As Katrina guessed, Albert did know where the toad was "hiding".

Last night, Fred, George and Lee Jordan told Albert the big news that the Anti-Toad Coalition had decided to take a big hit on the toad.

They plan to turn Umbridge into a toad and decorate one of the Christmas trees in the hall.

That's right, the toad is in the lobby, casted on an immobilizing charm, and placed on the top of the tree to act as a tree star.

There is a toad on the Christmas tree. It's really weird, so the toad was also put on a phantom charm.

That night, while everyone was enjoying dinner, the effect of the Disillusionment Charm on the toad gradually disappeared.

"What's that?"

I don't know who shouted at the toad on the Christmas tree.

With the shouting, more and more students noticed the toad on the Christmas tree.

I don't know who made it, but the toad on the Christmas tree suddenly returned to Umbridge's appearance, causing the student who was eating to almost spit the food out of his mouth.

However, something more bizarre happened.

Umbridge stood on the tip of the Christmas tree like a light feather, and began to spin in circles, and the "Song of the Toad" was slowly sung around in a merry Christmas tune.

I don't know if it was intentional or not. The professors all stood there, letting the ugly Umbridge spin around the Christmas tree, with no intention of coming forward to save each other.

Suddenly there was a sound of fireworks exploding under the Christmas tree, and above Umbridge's head, a sentence appeared: The Anti-Toad Alliance presents the "Song of the Toad" for everyone

"The Anti-Toad Alliance?" Professor McGonagall said softly.

I don't know who sang "Song of the Toad" to the tune, and the atmosphere suddenly became cheerful.

The students in the hall sang "The Toad Song" to the merry Christmas tune after they recovered.

That night, Umbridge's deeds spread throughout Hogwarts and became a hot topic of discussion. Many students suddenly discovered that the "Anti-Toad League", which they thought did not exist, had actually made such a big event. Find out about the Anti-Toad Coalition.

At this moment, the Anti-Toad Coalition, no, it should be said that the DA members are hosting a party in the Room of Requirement to celebrate their first victory.

That's right, Harry took the DA members with him for that.

They first used quick-acting escaping candy to create a flu to hold Madam Pomfrey, then they used the Disillusionment Charm to stun the toad secretly, and then Cedric, the best polymorph, turned Umbridge into a toad belt After leaving the school hospital, the toads are placed on the Christmas tree by the prefects who decorate the Christmas tree.

Umbridge can spin slowly because she stepped on a Disillusioned wooden plate, and the song is even simpler.

There's no doubt that the whole person plan, designed by the bad-lathered Weasley brothers, brought a lot of joy and laughter to everyone.

It also brings unprecedented confidence to the Anti-Toad Alliance, and by the way, it also brings everyone into the gutter against Umbridge.

Initially, Hermione didn't really agree with the twin brothers' plans.

"To fight against Umbridge together is good for the unity of the entire DA. If Harry wants to fight against You-Know-Who in the future, he needs to have his own supporters. He can't fight against You-Know-Who and his minions alone. Even adding a few of us is not enough, Harry needs more support." George said meaningfully, "Albert realized that, so he gave you the book to help form the current DA."

Hermione was eventually persuaded by George.

Harry needs supporters, not isolation.

In order to prevent Umbridge from spending the Christmas holidays alone in her hospital bed, Professor McGonagall asked Hagrid to move a Christmas tree to the school hospital and place it by Umbridge's bedside.

It's just that instead of a star, this Christmas tree has a pink toad.

"Actually, I don't think it's okay to hang the toad on the tree longer." Fred felt it was too cheap to let Umbridge go.

"Do you want to freeze the toad into a popsicle?" Lee Jordan couldn't help rolling his eyes. He felt that the timing was very good at that time, not only let everyone see the toad clearly, but also started the anti-toad alliance. Prestige, by the way, brought the toad crooked, and brought joy and laughter to everyone, it was a multi-pronged effort.

"Can't you be quiet?"

George is talking to Albert about Harry's teaching progress, which is much slower than he expected, although Harry has spent a lot of time on this, everyone's learning progress is still very slow.

"Harry is teaching everyone the Patronus Charm." George looked at Albert, who was reading a book, raised his eyebrows and asked, "You don't seem to care much about this."

"What they learn is their own, and I care what I do with it." Albert flipped through the book in his hand, which was a Christmas gift from Dumbledore: "The Story of Bedouin the Poet" set".

"What are you looking at?"

"The Tales of Bedouin the Poet, Dumbledore Edition."

"What's up with Dumbledore's version?" George raised his eyebrows.

"It is the "Tales of Bedouin the Poet" translated and published by Professor Dumbledore, and he also adds his own comments after each story." Albert handed the book to Fred.

"Dumbledore is going to publish The Tales of Bedouin the Poet?" Lee Jordan was puzzled.

"I guess not now. The book will probably be published after Fudge has stepped down. After all, it will save a lot of trouble then."

"It always feels different from the version I've read before." Fred handed the book to Lee Jordan.

Wizards in the UK basically grew up listening to The Tales of Bedouin the Poet.

"Yes, the "Stories of Bedouin the Poet" you read before have been revised. This is a literal translation. The most quintessential part of this book is actually the comment left by Professor Dumbledore." Albert reminded.

"I don't understand, what do you think Professor Dumbledore is trying to convey?" Lee Jordan handed the book to George.

"Tell us about it." George returned the book to Albert.

After turning around, "The Story of Bedouin the Poet" returned to Albert's hands.

"Everyone has their own opinion." Albert put away the "Story Collection of Bedouin the Poet", covered his yawn and said, "I'm a little sleepy, rest early."

"Good night!"

However, they didn't sleep long when they were awakened by a hurried knock on the door outside.

When Lee Jordan opened the dormitory door, he saw Professor McGonagall standing outside the door.

"Professor, what's the matter?" Lee Jordan asked, clutching his yawn.

"Tell Fred and George to wait for me in the common room, hurry up, urgent." After Professor McGonagall finished speaking, he turned and left to inform Ginny Weasley.

"Fred, George, get up." Lee Jordan looked at the back of Professor McGonagall's departure in confusion~IndoMTL.com~ turned and woke up the Weasley brothers who were still a little confused.

"What happened?" Fred and George covered their yawns.

"Professor McGonagall said she was in a hurry and asked you to wait for her in the common room." Lee Jordan frowned.

"Urgent, looking for us?" George repeated in confusion.

"Remember to put on your cloak to prevent you from catching a cold." Albert reminded: "And don't forget to bring your newsletter bookmarks, so you can get in touch when the time comes."

"Do you know what happened?" Lee Jordan looked at the Weasley brothers as they left and turned to ask Albert.

"Probably... something happened to their family!"

Albert wondered if after Nagini was killed by Dumbledore, Voldemort had a new snake to attack Arthur Weasley, with the intention of misleading Harry Potter.

Did something else happen?

"Because of the Order of the Phoenix?" Lee Jordan plans to join the Order after graduation.

"Probably." Albert said, covering his yawn. "Go to sleep, you can use your newsletter bookmarks to get in touch with them tomorrow."

"Can prophecy really do whatever you want?"

Lee Jordan glanced at Albert, who turned back to sleep, covered his yawn and lay back on the bed to continue sleeping.

That guy's words are always reassuring.

Prophecy?

No, phoenix tears can heal most wounds, even basilisk venom, not to mention Arthur Weasley's.

As long as Arthur doesn't die.

It's just that the cost of healing wounds with Phoenix's tears can be a bit high, which means Arthur could lose his job.

Even Fudge, no matter how stupid, could have guessed that Arthur Weasley belonged to Dumbledore, after all Phoenix tears are precious.
