Chapter 392: Singing the Opposite
"What are we going to do with these photos now that we have them?" Ryan washed up the overgrown photos the day after they were taken, but Hermione began to have a little headache when she looked at the dozen or so photos that had been selected. She felt that if she sent it by one person, if she couldn't post a few photos, she would be discovered by the old toad, and there was no way for many people to read it. I originally wanted to send it to Rita Skeeter, but thinking about her character of bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, I guess I won't send it out. If you set yourself on fire, it will be miserable.
"Then I'll have to wait until this Sunday, and I'd like to talk to the twins about it and see if we can put it in the store and distribute it.
At the weekend reading meeting, everyone went all out to complete the Q&A in the shortest possible time, so as to squeeze out more time for practical operation. Probably because the Iron Armor Spell is more suitable for private practice, everyone has mastered the spell in just one week. Even Neville was able to use this spell to block Hannah's disarming spell that was fired at him. So under the cheer of everyone, Ryan began to take out the obstacle spell he had just learned last year and share it with everyone.
"Barrier Charm, which can intercept any entity that tries to attack you. Let's start with this. Ryan stood on the podium and began to explain.
"Why don't we learn a more energetic spell, like the Stuna Charm?" asked Justin as he raised his hand. "I've heard Cedric say that this magic is also the most common use of the Aurors, not only popular but also easy to use. ”
"Because I think it's more important for us to learn to defend ourselves when we fight than to attack the enemy, after all, you can choose the next chance to attack if you fail to attack, and once you fail to defend, there is a high probability that you will never have a chance to correct this mistake. Ryan said with a tapped wand on his left hand. "Of course, that doesn't mean we're all we have to learn. When you have a good grasp of these basics, I will naturally teach you more powerful spells, such as stun spells. ”
After Ryan convinces everyone, the practice of the obstacle spell begins. With examples of success in learning Iron Armor, everyone is a little faster when it comes to learning new spells. By the time the meeting was coming to an end, a few people were already able to use the spell.
"Very good, that's all for today's practice, you can practice these spells on a regular basis, and we'll see you at the same time next week. With that, Ryan stepped down from the podium and joined Hermione in stopping the twins as they were about to leave.
"Fred, George, we have something we want to ask you about—" Ryan then laid out their plan and plan.
"Great, we didn't think of it. That's what we should do to Fudge's gang of rumor-mongers. "Wait, this may not be rumor-mongering. At least I don't think Umbridge has the qualifications to be the undersecretary of the Ministry of Magic, maybe she did get to the top in this way, and we're revealing the truth right now. The twins raved about Ryan's claim.
"Aren't you worried about affecting your business?" asked Hermione cautiously, thinking that this business should be important to her twin brothers, who were more short of money.
"Hermione, it's important to make money, but we can give it up for the sake of justice. Fred said with an eyebrow raised. "Besides, Ryan is the majority shareholder. He's decided to lose money, so what can we, the minority shareholders, do?" George added, but the smile on his face showed that he was 100% in favor of Ryan's plan.
"Then let's work on a way to spread the truth. The four of them muttered quietly, and it was not until the bell of the curfew rang that they hurried back to the common room.
"There's a great thing. Three days later, the twins stopped Ryan in the foyer as he was about to go upstairs to rest for a while. "There are magazines that are willing to put these photos in their books. ”
"What? What kind of brain-soaked magazine would send such a thing? Aren't they worried about Fudge's revenge?" Ryan stared at the twins with wide eyes, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Well, it's a magazine that might be in the water. Fred gave a somewhat strange expression. "We asked the clerk to stuff the photocopies of the photos in the boxes of the goods as waste paper for shock absorption on the packaging of the goods. As a result, the day after the shipment was sent, Xenophilius?? Lovegood approached him and asked him to publish the photographs in his magazine. ”
"Xenophilius?? Lovegood? Ryan said with two fingers tapping the back of his hand.
"He was the father of Luna Lovegood, a member of our reading club, and ran a magazine called Singing Against the Tune. George added. "Of course, we knew there wasn't much value in the magazine. They don't even have a manuscript fee, and those who submit to the book just want to see their name on the book. But it's a magazine anyway, and the photos on it always go viral faster than if we post them alone. ”
"And my father thought the magazine was a bit interesting, and there weren't too many people who wanted to read it. Finally, Fred comforted Ryan.
"Okay, then let him publish, now it's good for us to have one more person to publicize. In the end, Ryan made his own decision, which was the only option, as they couldn't expect the Daily Prophet to put the photos on their page.
"The fire has been lit, now it's up to Fudge to take it. After the twins left, Ryan whispered, and the corners of his mouth curled upward.
Contradictory didn't send out the photos right away, and during another weekend party, Luna told the twin brothers that her dad was waiting to post a brilliant long article about the recent discovery of the scimitar-horned snorer. "Of course, that's a very important article, so those photos of yours may have to wait for the next issue. ”
"Next issue, next issue. After hearing the twins' message, Ryan spread his hands, "Someone is willing to send these things out, isn't it? ”
Naturally, the following days will be calmer. Aside from Umbridge's insistence on jumping up and down and making trouble in each professor's class, nothing special happened.
During this time, Ryan also adapted to Umbridge's Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and Umbridge came to Hogwarts to prevent the students from mastering fighting skills, so naturally he didn't care about the students' progress at all. So recently, as long as he took the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, Ryan pretended to read books seriously, but in fact, after he entered a shallow meditation, he was calculating some things in the sea of knowledge.
He told the others about these methods, but unfortunately only Hermione could do the complete work in her head, like the twins who had tried it once and then just sat there and fell asleep, and Ginny had even worse results after the experiment, and there was no way to get into that kind of shallow meditation. It seems that this method needs to have enough magic to support it.
In the midst of this routine, the first month after the start of school has passed, and the first Hogsmeade Day of the semester is approaching.
