Chapter 145 Letter interception



Chapter 145 Letter interception

Harry also noticed that the news of the arrest of Sturgis Podmore was published in the "Daily Prophet" that day. He wanted to know if something went wrong with the mission of the Order of the Phoenix, and he was also worried about whether Sirius had been affected.Harry simply wrote the letter to Sirius, came to the owl house, and wanted to ask Hedwig to send it.

However, when Harry first entered the door, he saw Halia in the attic on the second floor of the Owl House, and he had already raised his hand to say hello to Halia, when he heard a meow behind him.

Harry turned to find Filch limping behind him.Harry assumed that Filch was also here to post a letter, and stepped sideways to let Filch in.Unexpectedly, after Filch walked into the owl room, he looked around Harry carefully, and Mrs. Norris sniffed beside Harry.

Harry found it very strange that Mrs. Norris could still smell?She is a cat.But what was even more strange to Harry was that Filch was obviously suspecting that he had done something bad.

Sure enough, Filch didn't find anything around Harry, and turned to him directly, asking, "Where's the thing? Take it out."

"What?" Harry didn't understand, and subconsciously looked up to where Halia was on the second floor.But he saw Halia waving to him, indicating that she was not there.Harry noticed that Filch's eyes had followed him to the second floor, and looked at Filch again, diverting his attention, "I don't know what you're talking about, I'm just here to post a letter."

"Aha! You said it yourself. Hand over your letter." Filch looked very pleased.

"What did I say?" Harry was even more puzzled, "I want to send a letter to my godfather, why should I show it to you?"

Filch saw that Harry seemed to be deliberately concealing it, so he asked Harry to hand over the letter angrily: "Why are you pretending to be stupid? I have a reliable source of information. I heard that you are ordering a big shit egg. Order you a big shit egg!" hand over the letter."

"I didn't order the big dung eggs, so I don't know what you're talking about." Harry shook his head, not wanting to continue entangled with Filch in the owl house, "I still have classes." Harry said, walking out of the owl house Completely ignoring Filch yelling behind him.

Halia, who was in the attic on the second floor of the owl house, also took advantage of Filch not noticing the situation upstairs, secretly got on the broomstick in the attic and left the owl house to catch up with Harry.Because she has encountered this situation before.

"Harry." Halia called Harry at the gate of the castle.

Harry was relieved to see that it was Halia who had come, and he wondered why Filch, besides Umbridge, was targeting him.

Halia told Harry: "I met Filch once when I went to the owl house to send a letter. He also asked me to take out the letter, which means that he has a channel to know that I am ordering big dung eggs."

"So did you order?" Harry asked, but seeing the look in Halia's eyes, he explained hastily, "Maybe Filch thought you were ordering for Fred and George because you were always with them. "

Halia accepted Harry's explanation, because she herself thought so before, until she saw Filch today and asked Harry to hand over the letter: "What about you? Filch also thinks that you are Are you ordering big shit eggs for someone else? Or, are you really ordering big shit eggs yourself?"

Hearing Halia's words, Harry shook his head: "I didn't order either."

Halia looked around carefully: "So I guess, someone is deliberately monitoring our letters, whether they are sent from my door or received from the owl house."

Hearing Halia's conjecture, Harry thought for a while and said, "When I went to the owl house, I saw Hedwig. Her feathers looked a little fluffy, as if someone had maliciously scratched her."

Harry looked at Halia's thoughtful expression, and raised his guess: "Could it be Umbridge? She deliberately intercepted our letter through Filch?"

Halia was a little surprised. She didn't expect Harry to directly suspect Umbridge. She thought Harry would hesitate between "Umbridge" and "Snape" for a while.

Halia nodded: "I guess it was her too. As a professor, she told Filch directly or indirectly that we were ordering contraband for Hogwarts, and Filch would stop our letters for her."

"But as long as Filch read our letter, he knew that the contents of the letter had nothing to do with the big shit." Harry didn't understand, why did Umbridge make such a fuss?

Halia smiled meaningfully: "Don't let Filch read it, Umbridge just needs to tell him that the students used the invisibility potion on the letter, and ask Filch to give the letter to her, and she will decipher the real letter The content is fine."

Harry nodded, feeling that what Halia said made sense.But he saw that he would soon be unable to catch up with Professor McGonagall's class, so he hurriedly bid farewell to Halia.

When Halia met Fred and George later, she told them what she and Harry had encountered and guessed.

Fred was surprised, and thanked them for discovering Umbridge's "little trick" so early: "After all, our main orders are through owl mail order."

George glanced at Fred: "It seems that we will have to make a few more trips to Hogsmeade in the future." Only by receiving letters from the owl post office in Hogsmeade can it be possible to avoid Filch and Umrie Odd attention.

"But you may have to go to the selection of new Quidditch members first?" Halia looked at Angelina who was walking towards them from not far away, and reminded them with a smile.

Angelina found out that Harry's confinement in Umbridge was replaced by going to Filch, and boldly accompanied Harry to negotiate with Filch, changing and adjusting the time of confinement several times, so that Harry Finally have time to participate in the goalkeeper selection together.Now to inform Fred and George of the new Quidditch selection time.

Angelina felt that one of the conditions to be observed when newcomers were selected was whether they could cooperate with all the veteran players.

Fred and George looked at the back of Angelina leaving, and Fred laughed and joked: "Maybe we should really write to Puddlemere United to see if Wood died during training."

Halia didn't understand what they meant.

"Because Angelina seems to have Wood's soul attached to her body now." George explained with a smile, reaching out and wrapping his arms around Halia's shoulders.

When it was time for Gryffindor to select new players, it happened that Halia's herbal medicine class crashed.When Halia finished the herbal medicine class, she saw Fred and George waiting for her at the door, and walked towards them with a smile.

"How is it? Who is the new goalkeeper? Does it work well with you?" Halia asked.

"It's little Ronnie." George replied, "But to be honest, he doesn't fly very well. But Angelina can only choose him. Few people who fly better than him have too many small problems."

"It's like complaining about some trivial things." Fred laughed mockingly, "What's the matter with Gryffindor not being full of Nimbus like Slytherin 2001? We still won the Quidditch trophy. "

Halia nodded to express her understanding. Having such players would indeed affect the training effect.

"Angelina, like us, feels that Ron can still become an excellent goalkeeper after a certain period of training." George shrugged and extended an invitation to Halia, "We have a training session tomorrow afternoon, do you want to come and see it?" ?”
