On Monday, a story suddenly spread at Hogwarts Castle.

It is said that during yesterday's Quidditch training match, the Kyle and Weasley brothers got into a fight in the locker room over some conflicts.

At first, everyone didn't believe it, after all, everyone knew that they were best friends, and even if there was a conflict, it was impossible to fight.

But it soon became clear that Fred and George seemed to be really injured......

There was a black mark on each of their eyes, as if they had been smashed by something.

At this moment, the castle was completely fried.

The rumor was suddenly confirmed, which also aroused the curiosity of countless people, wondering what was the reason for the fight of the former friend.

But neither the Weasley brothers nor Kyle said a word about it, and there was no explanation at all.

Kyle was in Umbridge's office.

"Professor......" he said, looking at Umbridge who was fiddling with a vase of dried flowers, "I already know what they were going to the Hog's Head Bar for." ”

"What's it!" Umbridge immediately stopped what he was doing and said eagerly.

"Canvassing." Kyle said, "They're going to mobilize their families to support Dumbledore as Minister for Magic." ”

"Damn it!" Umbridge yelled angrily, not at all suspicious of Kyle's words.

Because of the rumors at school, she naturally knew that Kyle and the Weasley brothers had a fight.

She also knew that the Weasley brothers had been to the Hog's Head Bar.

The fact that his friends for many years can turn against each other and fight each other is enough to prove that Kyle is on the side of the Ministry of Magic, so the news he brought will naturally not be fake.

Parents can be mobilized to support Dumbledore...... If Minister Fudge had found out, he would have been furious.

Umbridge spun around like a potato spinning top, and said to himself, "No, this kind of thing must be stopped later, and there must not be a second time." ”

"What are you going to do?" Kyle said.

"Dissolve all student organizations, associations, teams, and clubs so that they don't have the opportunity to get together again." Umbridge said.

"But Professor, then everyone will complain." Kyle said, "Isn't it a bit too radical for Hogwarts students to participate in clubs and teams. ”

"It's okay, it's just that the previous student body has been disbanded, and they can completely regroup." "But only if you have my consent." ”

As she spoke, she took out a piece of parchment and prepared to issue an education order, which was a stricter school rule.

As a senior investigator designated by the Ministry of Magic, she has that right.

"Professor, I still think something is wrong." Kyle continued, "There are so many organizations, associations, and clubs in the school that it would take at least a week to investigate and reorganize, and the students at the back of the line will still complain. ”

"It's an order from the Ministry of Magic." Umbridge said proudly, "They have to take it." ”

"Of course," Kyle said...... "but I have a better way." ”

Umbridge stopped the quill in his hand and looked up at him.

Kyle cleared his throat and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if they want to support Dumbledore, as long as more people choose to support Minister Fudge?" ”

"What do you mean?" Umbridge asked.

"I've inquired, and there were only about fifty people at the party last time."

Kyle continued, "That's not a lot of people compared to the whole of Hogwarts, and we can even say it's very small, and we can co-opt the rest of the people to choose to support Minister Fudge.

"Come to think of it, Professor, if the hundreds of remaining students in the school all choose to support Minister Fudge, then these fifty or so people don't matter."

Umbridge's eyes lit up for a moment, and then she began to think about Kyle's words.

If Fudge knew that a student was openly supporting Dumbledore, he would be angry, there was no doubt about that.

But if she could get more supporters for the Ministry, the nature of the matter would be different.

Kyle was right, for the whole of Hogwarts, more than fifty people was really insignificant.

And even if she can't get everyone else to support the Ministry of Magic, even if it's only half, it will be a great achievement for her.

"We're going to be ready to do it." "How about having a party too, we can set the venue in the school auditorium and let everyone come and attend," she asked. ”

Kyle shook his head. "Don't bother, Professor, that would make us look like we had a purpose.

"Just let them know who is really good for students."

"Then what can you do?" Umbridge asked with interest.

Kyle didn't speak, a hesitant expression on his face.

"How?" Umbridge raised an eyebrow, "Don't worry, if it succeeds, I'll give Secretary Fudge credit for your work." ”

"You're mistaken, Professor." Kyle hesitated, "That's it...... You know, our Hufflepuff house points were surpassed by Slytherin today ......"

"Kyle, there's something I have to say......" Umbridge looked at him with a pretended seriousness and said, "Even if I'm a professor, I can't just give students extra points, it's shameful cheating." ”

"Yes, Professor, I know." Kyle whispered, "But if we can win the Academy Cup this year, it's six in a row......

"Either way, this kind of cheating is not advisable." "But, because you caught some people doing something wrong, I can make an exception this time to add twenty points to Hufflepuff." ”

"Thank you, Professor." Kyle said with a smile.

"Can you tell me your thoughts now?"

"Of course." Kyle said, "As long as we can make the students feel the kindness of the Ministry of Magic, we can start with Quidditch." ”

"Quidditch?" Umbridge frowned, a little confused as to what this meant.

"That's right, it's the most popular sport at Hogwarts, and it's the largest group."

Kyle said, "Dumbledore was too stingy, or he didn't pay much attention to Quidditch, which also led to the school's broomsticks being old-fashioned comets and sweeps, slow to fly, and a terrible experience, which the team members complained about a lot of times."

"If the Ministry of Magic is willing to pay for a new batch of broomsticks for the school, I think everyone will be so excited that they will jump."

"Change the broom?" Umbridge hesitated, then shook his head, "No, that's a lot of money. ”

"It doesn't need to be too expensive, as long as it's new, like a new sweep." Kyle laughed and said, "And if the Ministry of Magic comes forward to procure it, you should be able to get another discount, you can do it yourself." ”

Umbridge seemed to think of something, her eyes flashed, she didn't answer, but she didn't object any more.

"I'm still saying that, Professor......" Kyle said while it was hot, "there are a lot of people who like Quidditch, and every member of the team has a lot of influence in the house."

"For a small amount of money, you can easily gain a lot of supporters, and at the same time, you can also set off Dumbledore's stinginess, this is a good deal."
