There was a burst of firelight, Lawrence stepped on the solid floor, he felt Dumbledore's palm leave his shoulder, and when he turned around, Dumbledore was standing on the edge of the astrological tower, overlooking the campus, Fawkes did not stop, but flew around the astrological tower,

"Aside from kicking me out of school, Fudge's other biggest mistake was not using due process to fire me," Dumbledore said in a brisk tone, as if talking about someone else's business, "Perhaps, did you bring a whole team of Aurors into the school to catch me?"

"Because of the relationship between the 'Deng Bad Army'?" Lawrence asked,

"Yes, the word 'Dumbledore's Army,' Fudge won't let go of this opportunity," Dumbledore seemed in good spirits, "but there is no dismissal with the consent of the school board, which means that the new headmaster's job will not be going too well."

"Are the people down there looking for you, Professor?" Lawrence also walked to the edge of the tower, looking at the faint, running point of light on the campus lawn, which should be the wizards of the Ministry of Magic with wands, searching the campus, trying to find Professor Dumbledore,

"I think so, but alas, their efforts will be in vain, but we don't have time to talk about that," Dumbledore shook his head, and finally looked at Lawrence with a smile, "Let's talk a little bit about Miss Selwyn, Lawrence, what do you think of her?"

"She knows a lot of things, she has an impressive knowledge of herbs and spells, and she's good at locking hearts," Lawrence said, shaking his head, "Other than that, maybe dangerous?" Snape warned me."

"Like roses, beautiful, thorny, and ......," Dumbledore said, "we don't know what lies beneath them."

"Well...... Lawrence hesitated for a moment, then said, "I want to ...... I don't think she's Voldemort's man."

"For now, I agree with you, and I think - she may have a little kindness towards us," Dumbledore said with reservations, "but what lies in that kindness may be a thorn in the thorn of danger."

Fawkes let out a low warning as it swooped down from outside the tower towards Dunburito,

"Then, Lawrence, if you find anything, please warn Professor McGonagall or Professor Snape." Dumbledore raised his arm, and the fire brought by the phoenix appeared again, and Dumbledore and Fawkes disappeared from the spot,

The cold wind of the spring night blew Lawrence's robes and hunted, and he took one last look at the points of light running on the lawn, turned his head and walked down the tower, and the way back to the Gryffindor Tower was calm,

When he uttered the secret language and drilled into the open portrait of the fat lady, it was all the members of Gryffindor who participated in the Dunbury Army.

Everyone looked tired, and Harry in the crowd looked very depressed, and a group of people gossiped about what they knew about Lawrence.

Harry, who left the Room of Requirement, and four other Gryffindor fifth-year students, were surrounded by twice as many pursuers as they were, and they were forced to scatter and flee.

The chaos in the castle attracts Filch and Lady Loris, and Harry is caught by the caretaker pair, whom most students fear.

"I'll tell Professor Dumbledore at the end that you might be pestered by Selwyn." Harry told Lawrence,

"Thanks, Harry, Fawkes found me at last." Lawrence patted Harry's arm and replied,

"Professor Dumbledore is gone, who do you think will take the role of Headmaster?" Ron asked, with a pale face,

"It must be Professor McGonagall." Plum. Jordan immediately answered, "The Chamber of Secrets was like that back then, right?"

"Don't be stupid, Lee." Fred said gloomily, "Who else but Umbridge?"

No one spoke anymore, and everyone seemed to acquiesce in the possibility of this, and the crowd was silent, stepping up the dormitory stairs,

One night, early the next morning, the school's bulletin boards were plastered with "Education Order Twenty-Eight" overnight, and Umbridge replaced Professor Dumbledore as the new headmaster of Hogwarts.

However, Lawrence and the twins were clearly not on this matter, and they hurried into the hall that was not yet empty, took some breakfast casually, and then hurried away (Note 1)

After the first class, Fred and George, who were in a hurry to make the final preparations, stuffed Monty, the captain of the Slytherin Quidditch team who came to provoke them, into the vanishing cupboard on the first floor.

"Special Operations Investigation Team? It's just a joke." Fred and George commented coldly, and they closed the disappearing cupboard left and right,

At noon, as the three of them walked down the marble staircase, they happened to hear Harry's group discussing Umbridge's newly formed "Special Operations Investigation Team" and the amount of house marks they had just been deducted.

After listening to their complaints, Fred and George also told them that Montay had been sent into the Vanishing Cupboard by them.

"Are you crazy?" Hermione was dumbfounded, "You're going to get in big trouble like this."

"Trouble?" Fred sneered, "That will be for later."

"After noon today, Umbridge will see real trouble." George added,

"What did you do?" Ron cautiously asked his two brothers,

"We've got a little show in place." Fred explained,

"But it's going to make a little noise." George added,

"It might disturb your class."

"But we think it's a worthwhile attempt."

"We're going to use some sparks that don't pay respect."

"It's our compliment to Professor Dunbulido."

"And we think there's some little confusion."

"Help our new headmaster."

"I have a clearer understanding of how to manage a campus."

"That's what she deserves when she becomes headmaster."

"I don't think it's good, okay, listen," Hermione was a little agitated, "if Umbridge catches her, she's going to fire you all."

"It's okay, Hermione," George reassured, "the three of us don't want to stay any longer, just waiting for an opportune moment."

"Lawrence?" Hermione raised her voice a bit,

"yes," Lawrence replied honestly, "I'll try not to let Umbridge find evidence to convict us, but if I can't help it, that's fine."

"There's still a little time before the project starts," Fred warns them, "If I were you, I'd go down the hall for lunch so I wouldn't be suspicious of Umbridge, huh?"

On this afternoon, Hogwarts ushered in what may be the most exciting fireworks show since the founding of the school, which must also be due to the professors, who resolutely implemented the policy of finding a new headmaster to deal with problems, causing Umbridge to be exhausted all day.

In the evening, Fred and George received enough fireworks orders for them to be busy throughout the Easter holiday, and of course, this grand fireworks show has also become a topic of discussion for every student after tea and dinner throughout the Easter holiday.

The junior students, listening in awe to the older students, told the story of Lawrence, Fred and George at Hogwarts.

And on the weekend when Easter was coming to an end, Ginny brought an unexpected news,

"Harry wants to talk to Sirius." Ginny said the news to Lawrence and the twins, who were on the shores of the Black Lagoon, preparing to go on a boat trip.

Judging by the fact that the boat is full of tanks, these three guys should have wanted to catch some Grindy Low in the Black Lake.

"We've noticed something—" Fred said solemnly, looking at Lawrence,

"You've been talking to Harry since last summer." Lawrence looked at Ginny, who was frowning, and quipped,

"I miss our little girl who blushes when she talks to Harry." George sighed, then grinned and pushed Ginny's wand away with his fingers,

"Do you want to help?" Ginny faced Lawrence, Fred, and George menacingly, her hands on her waist like Mrs. Weasley.

"In short, we're more than willing to help, Ginny." George said in a good voice,

"But you see, we've got a little work to do." Fred waved his hand,

"What the hell are you trying to do?" Ginny reminded, "I think you've seen Mom's letter to you in the Easter package?"

"Of course, but." George smiled,

"But we think that as a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, it should be easy to deal with a few Grindylow." Fred winked at Ginny,

"Lawrence." Ginny ignored her two brothers, she stopped talking, and looked worried.

"It's alright, Ginny, I guess this should be a part of schoolwork?" Lawrence made a fancy bow to Ginny, then tapped the stern of the boat with his wand, and Ginny watched their boat slowly sail away from the lakeshore.

It wasn't until after dinner that Lawrence and the Weasley twins walked into the Gryffindor saloon with a smug expression.

Harry and Ron were curious, but wisely didn't ask what they were doing, and Hermione on the side let out irritated snorts from time to time, but it wasn't until Fred's first words that Hermione left the matter behind,

"You want to talk to Sirius?" Hermione looked at Harry in surprise, and Ron's expression was equally surprised, apparently Harry had only told Ginny about it,

"Ugh...... yes," Harry tried to show his composure, but his pale, nervous expression betrayed him, "There's something I want to ask......

"Even this situation in Umbridge monitoring the fireplace and checking the owl mail?" Hermione confirmed incredulously,

"We don't care," George yawned, "and we're going to have the second phase tomorrow anyway."

"Phase II?" Hermione shrewdly discovered the keyword,

"I think you must be thinking how this Easter holiday can be so peaceful." George smiled and said this, ignoring Hermione's muttering "This is how it should be",

"It's Easter after all," Fred replied with a smile, "and we still have to be considerate of people who tirelessly want to read and rest."

Hermione blinked, her expression very subtle, obviously startled by the sudden thoughtfulness of these two,

"Since Harry wants to talk to Sirius," George turned to Lawrence, "then we'll postpone our midday plans, okay, Lawrence?"

"No problem." Lawrence nodded,

"Wait," Hermione quickly interjected, racking her brains to stop the men's thoughts, "Even if you succeed in distracting Umbridge, how is Harry going to talk to Sirius?"

"Use Umbridge's office." Harry replied calmly, apparently the answer he had already thought of, "Lawrence they've used, and Umbridge said it's the only furnace that isn't inspected."

"And what are you going to do—"

"Sirius's knife." Hermione's question was only halfway through when Harry immediately asked, "Sirius gave me a knife that can open any lock on Christmas the year before."

"Ron? What do you think?" Hermione quickly turned her head and asked,

"Huh?" Ron was taken aback by the question, but replied immediately, "If Harry wants to do it, I think he can decide for himself, doesn't he?"

"Well said, buddy," Fred tapped Ron on the shoulder, then reminded Harry and the three of them, "Anyway, if you want to walk back to Gryffindor Tower from the fourth floor after five o'clock tomorrow afternoon, try to use the hallway near the Charms classroom."

"We'd love to show you what we've been busy with today," George added after a moment's thought, "but you'd better not go and watch."

"What do you mean?" Ron asked vigilantly, if they walked like this, they would have to take a detour to leave the fourth floor after the Defence Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon,

"Because I'm not sure how fast it will move." Lawrence's answer left Harry's trio confused,

The next afternoon, Lawrence stood outside the dark arts classroom on the fourth floor, and he could faintly hear the nasal voice of Umbridge and the fake cough in the classroom, and occasionally the sound of flipping a book.

Lawrence began to draw a hidden silver line with his wand, and followed the corridor to the nearest staircase, and went up the stairs to the east side of the castle, where the statue of Gray the sycophant was located.

At the other end of the hallway, Fred was holding a pitch-black glass ball the size of a dragon's egg, and George was holding a tank full of lake water, but it was clearly not a normal tank, and judging by the sharp claws that struck the tank, it was clear that it contained far more creatures and lake water than the tank could hold.

Lawrence flicked his wand and drew the last touch of the hidden silver thread, the clock rang, and the sound of glass breaking followed, Fred broke the props in his hand, and a large amount of pitch-black lake water spread rapidly in the corridor, and George was about to put the Grindello in the tank into the lake that was about to take shape.

"Are you going to leave school?"

Lawrence turned around, and he saw Selwyn tilting his head and asked,

"Not yet." Lawrence replied,

"If you get caught by Umbridge, you're going to be kicked out."

"If only Umbridge can catch us."

"Your words may be difficult." Selwyn agreed,

Lawrence hurriedly turned around, he saw that Fred and George on the other side of the corridor had been surrounded by a group of Slytherin students, and then there was a large cloud of smoke bursting there, and it was clear that the two of them were not going to be restrained, and there was a rush of confusion and shouting,

"You have so much courage to stand still."

Umbridge's angry screams could be heard in the distance, and Lawrence quietly turned his wrist to eliminate the lake,

"Don't act rashly," Selwyn's voice said peacefully, "I guess Potter is still in Umbridge's office—you don't want Umbridge to know about it, do you?"

Lawrence's eyes narrowed slightly, and he put his wand back in his pocket, but if Fred and George were here, they would tell you that Lawrence was already furious.

───────

Note 1: The description of this day in the original book is a bit wrong,

We can find that Harry's first lesson in the afternoon was Transfiguration, and then Charms.

But in the original book, it can be known that this is not in line with the course from Monday to Wednesday.

Hermione said that night, "The Easter holidays start on Friday",

So it's only Thursday, and it's Friday the next day.

Harry went to practice the Locking Mind and discovered Snape's worst memories,

But we all know that practice should be every Monday at six o'clock in the evening.
