Sirius was taken away by someone from the Ministry of Magic?

When he first heard the news, Kyle thought they were joking, but he soon realized that it couldn't be all the fifth-graders.

In addition to Hufflepuff, the fifth-year Gryffindor students were also talking about it, and Harry, Ron, and Hermione didn't even come to the auditorium to eat.

Kyle looked at the nearest fifth-grader and asked, "Susan, you said Professor Black was taken away by the Ministry of Magic?" ”

"yes." Susan Bones said: "Our last session of the morning was Defence Against the Dark Arts class, and when the class was about to end, a few people suddenly came, and the one in the lead said that someone had gone to the Ministry of Magic to complain about Professor Black, saying that he had not done his duty as a professor, and that several students had been injured in class.

"Oh, Headmaster Dumbledore was there at the time."

Kyle frowned, and was about to say something when the door to the auditorium suddenly opened.

Dumbledore walked in with a serious face, followed by a witch in a pink cardigan.

Behind the two, Ron and Hermione pulled an angry Harry left and right, dragging him hard to Gryffindor's table.

But at this time, not many people noticed this scene, and everyone's eyes invariably looked at the two people walking in front, and whispered to each other about something.

Dumbledore stepped over to the front of the classroom, turned around, and spoke in a very calm tone.

"I'm sorry, please be quiet, I need to take some time to announce two things before you can enjoy your meal."

The auditorium fell silent in an instant.

Dumbledore said, "First of all, Professor Blake about Defence Against the Dark Arts, because he needs to cooperate with the Ministry of Magic to investigate some things, so he won't be able to give lectures in the meantime. ”

"But......" Dumbledore gestured to the witch next to him, "in the meantime, Professor Umbridge will teach you Defence Against the Dark Arts in his place." ”

There was a moment of silence in the auditorium before there was a sparse round of applause.

The sound was quiet, and almost always coming from the direction of Slytherin.

"They're!" Harry stood up angrily, unusually conspicuous in the crowd.

He seemed to want to say something more, but the next second he was dragged back to his seat by a few people next to him.

In the classroom seat, Dumbledore didn't seem to see it, but Umbridge next to him turned his head to look at Harry, and then showed a fake smile that couldn't be faker.

"Thank you, Headmaster." She turned her head and took two steps forward.

Dumbledore smiled and gave up his position in the middle.

Umbridge cleared his throat and shrieked, "I have to say, it's great to be back at Hogwarts. ”

"Oh, her voice is so uncomfortable." Cedric frowned and rubbed his arms, "Why does she have to talk like that, and that fluffy pink cardigan, it's really not for her." ”

"Personal preference." Kyle said, "That's what she looked like when I saw her at the Ministry of Magic before. ”

"You've seen it?" Cedric asked, "How's she, would she be a good professor?" ”

"Let's put it this way." Kyle thought for a moment and gave a more pertinent answer, "Even Professor Quirrell and Lockhart were much better than her. ”

"Oh......" Cedric groaned.

He couldn't imagine anyone worse than those two...... If there were, it would probably be a troll with a door in its head.

Kyle sighed as well.

He thought Sirius might not be there until the end of the school year, but he didn't expect to leave so soon.

It's been less than two weeks since the start of school.

On the classroom seat, Umbridge was saying in a dry, emotionless tone:

"The Ministry of Magic has always believed that it is important to educate young wizards, to nurture them carefully and carefully, and to exercise some of the valuable talents you are born with......"

Gradually, some students lose their attention.

"How I feel like I'm in the history of magic." Mikel covered his mouth with his hand and secretly yawned, "Also, when the hell will we be able to continue eating...... Today's lunch is pork cutlet, what if it gets cold for a while. ”

No one answered him.

Ryan looked like he was going to fall asleep in the next second, and McMillan next to him stared at Umbridge with unblinking eyes, looking very serious, but his gaze was glazed, obviously thinking about something else.

Umbridge continued to speak slowly and logically about her tirade.

The students around them had already started chatting with each other, and only a few of them and the professors were still listening, but their expressions were all intriguing.

Professor McGonagall's eyebrows were tightly twisted together, and Professor Flitwick seemed to take a keen interest in the fork in his hand. Even Snape didn't look very happy that Sirius had been taken away.

The more Connor listened, the more she felt that something was wrong, and she tugged at Kyle's arm and whispered, "How do I feel, it looks like the Ministry of Magic is interfering with Hogwarts." ”

"No, that's what they think." Kyle said, "Look at what she said...... Some decisions are outdated and therefore have to be discarded?

"In previous years, even last year, the Ministry of Magic would not have dictated the decisions that Hogwarts had made."

At this point, Kyle suddenly notices that Umbridge's head is tilting this way.

Although it was only for a moment, he still noticed the undisguised resentment in the other party's eyes.

Well, it seems that it is not only Dumbledore who has become the target of the other party himself.

This is ...... It's so interesting.

Kyle smiled, picked up his fork, and put a piece of tonkatsu into his mouth as if no one was around.

Cedric looked at him with his mouth open and in surprise, a move that could be said to have completely ignored Umbridge.

After noticing this, some people subconsciously looked at Dumbledore again.

But the headmaster's attention seemed to be on Umbridge, and he didn't seem to notice what was going on below.

At this time, some people who are more bold and have not eaten enough can not help it, such as Fred and George.

They didn't care why Kyle was acting so unusually, they just started eating and laughing and chatting with others as if Umbridge didn't exist.

Then, more and more people joined in.

Umbridge's voice grew sharper and louder on the classroom seats, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't drown out the tinkling sound of the students as they ate.

Then she finally finished the last few words and turned to look at Dumbledore.

"Please continue, Professor Umbridge, I think you're quite right." Dumbledore said solemnly: "We really shouldn't progress for the sake of progress, the new era needs a new order, and I fully agree with that."

"You've really inspired me a lot to realize that I don't seem to be that competent as a principal."

But just then, he suddenly noticed the students who were eating.

"Oh, so you're done?" Dumbledore was surprised, "I'm sorry, I was so fascinated by what I heard just now, I didn't even notice it...... Professor Umbridge, you should have warned me. ”

Umbridge's face sank, and then he struggled to squeeze out a smirk.

"yes, I'm done." She said in a high-pitched voice, and sat down.

She had wanted to wait for everyone to calm down before continuing, but just now, she changed her mind.

Umbridge looked in Hufflepuff's direction again, and Kyle, who was chatting with the others, had a flash of resentment and ill-will in his eyes.

Dumbledore began to applaud, and the other professors clapped their hands a few times, and Professor McGonagall looked at Umbridge and then at Kyle, her eyebrows tightened.

While she didn't know why Kyle was doing that, Dumbledore didn't seem to object. So she held back, allowing more and more students to start eating while Umbridge spoke.

But this matter will definitely not be settled today.

She still knows a little about Umbridge, and it is polite to describe her with a small belly and chicken intestines.

Such a person did not attack on the spot, which can only show that she has a bigger conspiracy,

And coincidentally, she's also a substitute professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts, and it's all too easy to find trouble with a student.

Professor McGonagall was a little worried, wondering if she should find a chance to remind Kyle.
