Chapter 39: Questioning
Professor McGonagall's office, Daphany was not missing. In the past, Professor McGonagall was pleasant—teachers were always kind to good students.
Today, however, Professor McGonagall's expression was unusually ugly. Of course, this wasn't for Daphany, or for Harry, who looked indignant, but at Umlich, who was sitting at the café by the door, drinking tea.
"Miss Lestrants, and Mr. Potter!" Umlich glanced at Harry and Daphany. The former glared angrily, while the latter ignored it entirely. Umlich was a little upset, and said in an indifferent tone: "I don't know if you two have read the latest news." ”
"If you're talking about the Daily Prophet, I did read the latest issue!" Daphine replied casually.
"So, Miss Lestrantzi, is there anything she would like to say?" Umlich stared at Daphine, as if trying to put pressure on Daphany.
However, Daphany was completely unmoved: "There has been little news worth watching since Merlin's will. Now the Daily Prophet is not as readable as "Singing the Opposite"! Daphany replied casually.
The expressions of the other people in the room suddenly became a little strange.
Umlich's face flushed, and he exclaimed, "Dafanie Lestranzie, don't mess around here!" ”
"Lord Umlich!" Daphany spread her hands, still with an indifferent expression: "I have no idea what you're talking about." You asked me questions, and I answered you. Is there something wrong? If you feel like I shouldn't be here, I can leave. In fact, I have a lot on my plate. The weekends are very enriching for students! ”
Daphine's tone of voice was nothing special, and her expression was normal. But only her eyes!
It was a pair of eyes with undisguised contempt, just looking at Umlich. It's like a dragon looking down on a filthy mouse.
How could Umlich stand this anger? In the semester that Daphany was away, she was already on her toes at the academy! There are countless students who have been physically punished, and they are completely unable to adapt to a student treating her like this.
"What kind of attitude do you have!" Umlich shouted loudly.
The corners of Daphne's mouth hooked, revealing a bright smile: "I don't understand what you mean!" ”
Daphany was happy, very happy! Watching Umlich blow up her hair, she thought it was very interesting.
As a high-ranking member of the Ministry of Magic, Umlich may not be strong. But is emotional intelligence really so low? Of course not! The reason why she behaves so badly and irritable is entirely because Daphany has been influencing her.
The slight mental power influence stirred up Umlich's emotions. It works great! An angry person is always easier to deal with than a sane and calm person!
Maybe Daphany had restrained her mental influences, or maybe she really didn't have anything to say. Umlich was speechless for a moment. Yes, Daphany didn't do anything, didn't say anything drastic, did she say: I don't like the look in your eyes?
Taking a deep breath and calming down his emotions, Umlich said indifferently: "What do you think about the escape of ten dark wizards from Azkaban from prison, Lestranzey?" ”
"Well, apparently Voldemort has recovered enough magic to start reining in his former henchmen!" Daphany said calmly.
"You talk nonsense!" Umlich was furious: "That man is long dead, dead!" ”
"Really brave! Lord Umlich! Defanie smiled, and the smile was beautiful, and she was happy: "You said Voldemort is dead!" This is a very vicious curse! I praise you! ”
"I didn't, I ......" A hint of panic flashed on Umlich's face, but then he forced himself to calm down: "Lestranzi, you want to talk nonsense and change the subject!" That man was gone fifteen years ago! This prison break can't have anything to do with him! ”
"If you think anything, I don't have a position against it!" Daphany smiled and spread her hands, still not caring.
"I suspect their jailbreak has something to do with you!" A hint of viciousness flashed across Umlich's face: "After all, there are two of them who seem to be your parents!" ”
"Proof!" Fun read
"The proof is that no one saw you in the castle for two hours from eight to ten o'clock last night!" Umlich suddenly smiled, and a flash of sharpness flashed in his eyes: "You didn't return to the Slytherin common room until half past ten, a few minutes before the lights went out!" So where did you go in the first two hours? ”
Daphine was stunned for a moment, then frowned slightly. She suddenly realized that she might be underestimating Umlich! Her concern may not necessarily be Azkaban's. No one would really believe that Daphany would go back to prison. What she cares about is an underground student organization!
Daphany had heard from the twins that several student organizations had been forcibly banned by Umlich. That's why it's so hidden. Could it be that Umlich is already aware of the presence?
Despite her thoughts, Daphany still reacted quickly and smiled, "I've been proficient in invisibility and confusion since I was in first grade, and it's normal for no one to see me. ”
"Is it necessary for you to use the Invisibility Charm and the Confusion Charm to conceal during the normal activity time of the students?" Umlich asked.
"There's no rule that says it's not allowed!" Daphine spread her hands.
Umlich gave Dafanie a deep look, a little frustrated. But then he turned to Harry: "Mr. Potter, where were you before ten o'clock last night?" Again, almost no one knows where you are between eight and ten o'clock. ”
"Professor Umlich, you don't think I'm the one who took prisoners of Azkaban, do you?" Harry was a little nervous, but seeing Dafanie lift her weights lightly, she calmed down. The little brain grasped quickly, and replied with a grin: "I really can't think of any reason why I am going to be an accomplice to a group of thugs who killed my parents!" ”
"Maybe your motive isn't obvious, but you're still suspicious. Your godfather, Blake, is the only one who escaped from Azkaban before! Umlich said through gritted teeth.
"Then you can go to him! Although my godfather is the only one left in the Black family, it's not hard to find, right? Harry asked with a wicked grin.
Umlich found out she was wrong. You shouldn't have asked Daphany first! Just now, I just thought that it would be much easier to deal with Harry's relative toughness first. But the result was different from what she had imagined, Daphany didn't eat her set at all, and Harry became calm because he broke in front of Daphany. You know, at first, Harry could clearly see that he was very nervous!
Glancing at Daphany with a resentful gaze, Umlich finally waved his hand and let the two out.
Although Lestranzi didn't directly confront herself after she came back, it was because of her presence. Some of the students who had already been subdued began to jump out again. And the Slytherin students, who used to work well together, are starting to be a little less obedient this week! This girl is really troublesome, why didn't she die in the first place! Umlich thought.
"Umlich is paying attention to us!" As soon as he left Professor McGonagall's office, Harry couldn't wait to speak to Dafanie.
"It looks like it's not sure yet, but I've found a little clue." Daphany frowned slightly, the party was still very careful, it was supposed that Umlich should not have found out so quickly. Unless......
"Could it be that there are students who are informing?" Harry asked in a low voice.
"It's not impossible!" Daphany also had some headaches. Although it seems that the vast majority of the students in the academy are on good terms with Dafanie. But that's just scratching the surface. I don't know how many people are unconvinced. Blaise Sabini, for example, almost had disobedience written on his face. However, this thing knew that it would definitely not be able to beat Daphany, so more often than not, it was a battle with Draco. In the fifth grade, he didn't compete for the prefect, and he was unhappy for a long time.
But it's not Sabini who whistleblows. If Hermione mistakenly got into Ravenclaw in Gryffindor, Sabini definitely got into Gryffindor in Slytherin. Although this product is a bit reckless, but the heart is quite real!
As for the others, Daphine couldn't think of anyone for a moment. Except for those who have signed a contract, it is possible for almost everyone! After all, Daphany, as the eldest sister of the academy, is joking to say that everyone has no opinion.
"Wait and see!" Unable to think of a clue, Daphany had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being.
Harry was about to say something, but only to see Hermione waving at them from the other side of the hallway.
Harry and Dafanie walked over, and Hermione looked happy, looking like something good was happening.
"Hey, hey, we were taken to the office by the teacher to talk, why are you still so happy. Can we have fun together? Daphany joked. She didn't care about Umlich's interview or attention. Unlike the original, Harry-led will be afraid of Umlich, and in the face of Daphany's dominance, even if Umlich really catches the current, what he can do is very limited! After all, the most important thing in the wizarding world is strength! And Daphany is very confident in her current strength. At least not something Umlich or Fudge behind her can deal with!
"If Harry had been interviewed, I would have been a little worried. But since you're with you, it's not a big deal! Hermione said with a grin, she had a deep understanding of Daphany's strength when she was in Ilvermorny. Even many professors in Ilvermorny sighed that Daphany was unbelievable!
Harry didn't have any resentment about Hermione's apparent belief in Daphany's strength, and grinned and asked Hermione if anything was good.
It's a good thing indeed, Hagrid, who disappeared for a semester, is back!
