Chapter Forty-Six: Miscellaneous
When Holly left the classroom, he didn't know what Professor McGonagall's face was......
But fortunately, when Holly realized what she had done, she quickly used her magic to change everything back.
It wasn't anything to Holly, but to others who were also in Transfiguration class, it was just another critical hit. It's not the same level of contrast, but it's happening around me.
However, this did not attract much of Harry Potter's attention. He had been in a state of inattention all day, and the reason for this was, of course, Umbridge's confinement. But...... Perhaps Professor Graplan, the substitute teacher for the Fantastic Beasts Conservation course, didn't tell him exactly what he knew about Hagrid. All in all, even though Holly had once again demonstrated her unparalleled magical prowess in front of all the fifth-year students, Harry still hadn't noticed the brilliant girl his age.
However, for Harry Potter, Umbridge's confinement was very special, unlike Snape's constant complaining during his confinement, or Filch's use of a lot of physical labor to squeeze the students' excess energy. However, for fifth-year students, Filch's lockdown plan was not very popular, as the energetic Harry Potter would not think he would have enough energy to challenge Filch's labor package right now. Especially when Angelina reminded him of Friday's Quidditch tryout......
Umbridge's actions during Harry Potter's confinement, Holly did not get the news immediately, on the one hand, Fudge's small actions in the Ministry of Magic, and on the other hand, the savior seemed to be trying his best to cover it up, at least Holly did not get any news from Hermione or Ginny.

In the corner of the Ravenclaw common room
Connelly couldn't wait. Holly was sipping his coffee while the quill was scribbling the parchment on the other side.
"Hmm. Opposite was Erinka, who was looking at a letter, and did not raise her head, but her frown was slightly furrowed, indicating that she was not in a very good mood at this time.
"What do you want to do?" said Erin after a pause, then looked up and asked Holly.
"What can I do? It looks like Fudge has made some deal with Lucius at the moment, doesn't it?"
Erinka shrugged and didn't say anything, just a little gloomy.
"Then I won't have to reply to him......" Holly took the letter from Erinka's hand, and with a handful of it, the parchment burned in the air, turned into a little ash, and was about to fall on the carpet when it was swept into the fireplace by a light wind.
"So what are you going to do, do you need to talk to him?" Erilinka gestured to the office on the other side of the tower.
"I don't think so. Can't he notice what happened to Stoic Podmore?" Holly replied.
"Whether it's Lucius's hand or Cornelly's doing, Dumbledore should be able to realize that the Ministry of Magic is now completely out of control. Holly added, "Even if we, don't we have no way to interfere more with the Ministry of Magic now?, but there are some pawns that have been buried early, and we can ensure that our sources of information are not cut off." ”
"So be it, but ...... How are you going to deal with it?"
"It doesn't seem like we're the ones who should be in a hurry now. Holly didn't explain her plans to Erinka in detail. "Don't forget, that order didn't have a direct impact on our two special observers. ”
"That's right, I guess there are people who are more unhappy than us now......" Erinka's face looked slightly better, after all, happiness can be built on the pain of others.
While the two were chatting in the Ravenclaw common room, in the headmaster's room, Dumbledore looked at the news from the Ministry of Magic, and his brows were tightly locked, and his already wrinkled brows were twisted into folds.
However, Dumbledore didn't have much time to think about the antecedents of these things, as the news would soon be completely revealed. What Dumbledore needed to consider was the impact on Hogwarts if this information became public.
Even though there were two high-level observers in Hogwarts (Holly and Erinka), they didn't interfere or restrain Dumbledore too much. But even so, Dumbledore has been quite constrained in taking certain measures in the past few years.
As for the upcoming announcement about the senior investigator...... Dumbledore immediately sensed the threat of manipulation. It's inevitable, every time the Ministry tries to get into Hogwarts, Dumbledore feels like this, only this time...... Dumbledore found that he didn't seem to have any way to force out the tentacles that the Ministry of Magic had outstretched, and even this time the tentacles were put in by himself to a certain extent......
As for foreign aid, Dumbledore had never imagined that for him, since he had made up his mind to take the path to godhood in that way many years ago, he would have to follow the path that had been planned many years ago......
The slightest thought or hesitation, or even repentance, would destroy Dumbledore's source of strength, and when the old Headmaster of Hogwarts suddenly began to reflect on what he had done in the past, it would also be the day when he would be completely removed from the altar...... As for waiting for him to let go of all his obsessions, probably, this person who once left many marks in the wizarding world will fall in an instant.
Picking up the front page of the daily newspaper of tomorrow's prophet that he had secretly copied on his desk, Dumbledore refocused his attention on every word of the paper, trying to find any loopholes in it that would give him a way to resolve the problem.
I had a vague idea in my head, but I couldn't catch the line that would bring the idea to the surface completely. Dumbledore decided to do what he had just done again, after all, when he was old, the work of using his brain was not as easy as that of young people, and in this position, Dumbledore could not quietly find some people to help him share some work.
Maybe McGonagall was willing to do it, but Dumbledore didn't think McGonagall was capable of doing everything as well as he did, maybe Snape could, but McGonagall certainly couldn't, it wasn't a matter of strength, it was a matter of character.
