By the time Kyle arrives at the Defence Against the Dark Arts office, there's no one around.

He knocked on the door.

"Come in." Umbridge's voice came from within.

Kyle pushed the door open and walked inside.

It's still the same place as the last time I visited, and it's full of beautiful handicrafts, but there seem to be a lot more cat plates on the wall.

"I'm disappointed......"

When the office door was closed, Umbridge, who was still smiling, immediately looked at Kyle with a strange look that he couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or proud.

"I was in this office yesterday, waiting for you to come and tell me something interesting, but you didn't come.

"This may prove that you are not as faithful as you said you are, but are still on Dumbledore's side."

"I don't understand what you're talking about, Professor." Kyle was surprised and said, "Is there anything I should know?" ”

"Oh?" Umbridge chuckled, "Well, I can give you a little reminder.

"As far as I know, yesterday in Hogsmeade, dozens of people went to the Hog's Head Bar together, can you tell me what they went there for?"

"And what's going on?" Kyle was surprised, "How I didn't know. ”

"Lie!" Umbridge's voice grew cold, "As far as I know, many of those people are your friends, how could you not know, maybe you were there at the time." ”

"It can't be." Kyle shook his head, "I've never been to the Hog's Head Bar, and I don't know what the party is there. ”

"It looks like you're not going to tell the truth." Umbridge smirked again, and said in a smirk voice, "How about lying to the professor and putting you in confinement for another week, I think you'll be willing to tell the truth when that happens." ”

"What I said is true." Kyle's expression remained the same, "I went to the Wizard's Costume Store yesterday after I arrived in Hogsmeade, as Miss Daphne Greengrass of Slytherin can testify, she was also in the store at the time. ”

"And after that!" "I remember it wasn't too early, you could have come out of the clothing store and go there," Umbridge said. ”

"I've been in three broomsticks since then, and I've never been anywhere." Kyle said.

Umbridge gave him a skeptical look, "Can anyone prove it?" ”

"Anyone who has been to three brooms will do."

Kyle said, "I was sitting across the door and a lot of people should have seen me." ”

Umbridge was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Kyle to say that.

"You're not lying?"

"Of course not." "And Ms. Rosmerta can also prove that I didn't go out before noon."

"Or you can ask the people who went to the Hog's Head Bar that day and ask them if I was there at the time."

Umbridge was silent for a moment.

When she raised her head again, the smile on her face became even more fake, making people feel uncomfortable at first glance.

"No, I'm sure I believe you." She said in a strange tone, with a hint of mockery, "However, your so-called friends don't seem to be like that. ”

"Ah, yes." Kyle resisted the urge to punch her in the face and said, "I didn't expect them to hide so much from me, it's so disappointing." ”

"So, I need you to help the Ministry of Magic investigate this." Umbridge continued to smile and said, "Dumbledore chose to hold the meeting at the Hog's Head Pub, and those people also chose the Hog's Head Bar, maybe there is some connection between that." ”

"Is it possible, it's just a coincidence." Kyle said.

"Absolutely not." Umbridge said firmly, "I don't believe there is such a coincidence, those people must be Dumbledore's secret army among the students." ”

Kyle didn't speak, mainly because he didn't know what to say...... It's rare for him to tell the truth, and Umbridge still doesn't believe it.

Dumbledore chose the Hog's Head Bar because he felt it was safe enough for his own people. Cedric: They went purely because there were few people and they wouldn't be eavesdropped on by others.

So it's really just a coincidence, that's all.

Also Dumbledore develops students as a secret force?

I have to say that Umbridge and Rita Skeeter should be able to talk, after all, they both have unpredictable and outrageous ideas.

However, seeing Umbridge's convinced look, Kyle didn't say anything, just nodded and said, "Leave this matter to me, Professor, I'll definitely be able to ask." ”

"That's up to you." Umbridge said, "Don't let me down. ”

"I'll look into it." Kyle said, "For the Ministry of Magic." ”

Umbridge's expression immediately turned serious.

"For the Ministry of Magic!"

……

"So, you're going to report us?"

During the afternoon Quidditch practice, Fred asked in the locker room.

This is the Hufflepuff locker room, and it stands to reason that the Gryffindors shouldn't be there, but now that they're the only ones here, it doesn't matter.

"Theoretically, I really should." Kyle wiped the broom from his hand and said, "Give you to Umbridge in exchange for house points." ”

"Tell Umbridge what we're going to do, and she'll give you how many points."

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be less than fifty."

"So little?" George was a little disgusted, as if he thought Umbridge was too stingy, "We're Dumbledore's secret army, and we're only worth fifty points?" I thought it was at least 100 points. ”

"No wonder you didn't go to the pig's head bar that day." Fred said, "Didn't you already know this was going to happen?" ”

"It's not too early." Kyle shook his head, "I didn't remember until I got to Hogsmeade. ”

"Haha, let you investigate the matter of our party." George couldn't help but laugh and said, "She'll never want to know the truth." ”

"But I still don't get it." Cedric said, "Why would Umbridge be looking for you, and you seem to have to help her."

Also, what did you mean yesterday when you said that you were going to stand in opposition to Professor Dumbledore? ”

"It's part of the plan, and it's hard to explain in a sentence or two." Kyle said, "Just remember that we're against each other now...... At least convince Umbridge that it is. ”

George's eyes rolled. "So...... We can't beat you up here, that's what we did against Slytherin. ”

"That's right." Fred smiled sadly, "The current situation is three against one, you have no chance of winning." ”
