Chapter 356: Night Attack
Even though Darren was sitting across from him, he knew that there weren't too many scenes that would make Hermione panic, and combined with the O.w.Ls exam schedule, it was self-evident what was going on, not to mention that she immediately asked, "Oh my gosh! Is it them?
Darren turned, and a small group of wizards who looked very old were standing in the door of the auditorium, and with them was Umbridge. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Shall we take a closer look?" asked Ron.
Harry nodded immediately, Hermione looked at Darren with wide eyes, making him feel a little uncomfortable, shrugged his shoulders, and several people walked to the two doors leading to the foyer, slowed down as they crossed the threshold, and walked gently past the examiner.
Umbridge was talking to a very small hunchbacked witch, and her attitude was very respectful, and it was obvious that she must have been very unusual, her face was wrinkled, like a spider's web, and she seemed to be a little behind her ears, because she was only a foot away from Umbridge, but she answered in a very loud voice.
"The journey went well, the journey went well, we arrived quite early!" the witch said impatiently, "By the way, I haven't heard anything about Dumbledore lately! I guess I don't know his whereabouts, right?"
"Not at all," Umbridge said, glaring viciously at Darren as they grinded at the staircase and Ron crouched and pretended to tie his shoes, "but I think the Ministry of Magic might be able to catch him soon." ”
"I doubt that," cried the witch, "if Dumbledore didn't want to be discovered, he wouldn't have been caught......! When he took the N.E.W.TS exam, it was me who took his Transfiguration and Charms...... He used his wand to do things I'd never seen before. ”
"yes...... So......" said Umbridge, "I'll take you to the teacher's lounge, you might want a cup of tea after your trip......"
Obviously, the students were under a lot of pressure when they faced O.w.Ls exams, and in the dormitory, Darren could hear the sound of tossing and turning in bed, and then, he fell asleep.
The next day it was the official start of the exams, and at breakfast, the fifth-graders had no one to talk to, Parvati was practicing spells in a whisper, the salt shaker on the table twitched in front of her, Neville was dropping his knife and fork and spilling the jam, and Ron was gobbling up the song called "Cram.It! How.To.Soar.On.Your.O.W.L.S" booklet, a study guide for O.W.L.S.
Like them, Hermione was reviewing "Spell Achievement" at a rapid pace, her eyes were a little confused, and Darren put bread and fried eggs on her plate, signaling to eat them all, and the exam was also very energy-intensive!
Compared to the people around him, Darren was the only one who seemed to be stress-free, he didn't care about O.W.L.S, let alone having Penelope's memory of knowledge as a foundation, which was much better than filling in the blanks of the original prediction......
Moreover, Penelope's memories also provide an opportunity for Darren to get in touch with knowledge that he had not previously mastered and noted, and many things, as long as you look at them from a different angle, can draw new conclusions.
Although the speed of time passes constantly, human experience changes with subjective feelings, which can be regarded as another "theory of relativity", so it is almost impossible to notice that the O.W.L.S exam is coming to an end, especially because there are fewer subjects to report, and when others are busy with the exam, Darren can still have free time to relax, such as the divination exam.
That night, Darren and the others had to go to the top of the Astronomical Tower, because it was there that they could observe the sky and take a practical exam in astronomy.
The weather was fine that night, the sky was cloudless, and there was no wind, but unfortunately, the moon was also bright, and the venue was bathed in silver moonlight, which was not very good for observing the stars, but fortunately the telescopes were hopeful.
The witch I saw that day was also there, she was the Professor Marche class mentioned by Neville, and the astronomy teacher, Professor Tofodi, was invigilating the exam, but fortunately with Penelope's memory, otherwise Darren would probably only be able to draw the Big Dipper to cope with errands......
Except for the rustle of parchment, the occasional squeak of telescopes as they moved across the shelves, and the hasty writing of many quills, there was silence all around, and half an hour passed, and then another hour passed, and as the lights in the castle windows went out, so did the small golden spots of square that flickered on the field below.
However, by this time, Darren had already discovered that Penelope's memory could not help him cope with the current exam, after all, this was also an operational class, and although he knew the corresponding knowledge of words, he could not tell which star he saw in his eyes!
Darren, who had entered garbage time early, was bored and scribbling on his astrological chart, when suddenly he noticed that the front door of the castle was open, and the light was projected down the stone steps, illuminating a small patch of grass below.
He glanced down, and Darren saw five or six long shadows walking through the lighted meadow, and then the gate shut, and the meadow fell into darkness again.
Darren simply put the astrological chart aside and stared down, and he counted out that six figures were walking through the meadow, and among them was a short, fat person, whose iconic size revealed her identity, Umbridge.
Professor Tofodi coughed, but Darren didn't care, he handed the astrological chart into the other's hands, and continued to look outside, in the quiet night sky, he heard a knock through the empty field from a distance, and immediately the low barking of a large dog sounded.
The light came through Hagrid's window, and now the men who walked through the meadow were darkened by the light, and the door opened, and six figures stepped through the threshold, and the door closed again, and then there was silence.
Darren knew that there would be no good thing with Umbridge here, but he had no choice now, unless he planned to go straight out of Hogwarts like the twins, but considering Hagrid's combat effectiveness, he shouldn't suffer.
"Alright, try to concentrate, students. Professor Tofodi said softly, "Hmm...... Twenty minutes to go. ”
Just then, there was a roar from Hagrid's cabin, and Darren frowned and rushed out of the doorway, he was going back to get his wand, because this damn exam couldn't take it with him.
