Chapter 181 Chain Reaction
Umbridge's handling of the "sickness" of the students during the class has attracted the attention of many students.Not only Roger who proposed to go to the medical wing was stunned, but other students who were about to eat the prank candy also looked at Roger and Umbridge.
The students are going to see how things go, if they continue to leave the Defense Against the Dark Arts class because of the "Umbridge Syndrome", will they be repeated?
Roger didn't expect that Umbridge proposed to make him repeat a grade. His eyes were a little flustered for a moment, but soon his expression became painful because of a nosebleed: "Professor, I feel...some I'm a little dizzy..." His speech continued intermittently.
Umbridge did not wave Roger away impatiently as usual, but stepped forward with concern: "Mr. Davis, you need to go to the medical wing quickly. After you are cured by Madam Pomfrey, Let's talk again about you going through seventh grade again."
After hearing Umbridge's words, Roger's expression became more painful, and he rushed out of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.
Halia noticed that there were some changes in Umbridge today compared to usual, first in her voice, then in her attitude towards sick students in class.Halia didn't eat the comatose marshmallow as planned, and she planned to observe Umbridge's changes again.
Not only Halia, but other students did not eat the prank candy either. They may want to continue to observe Umbridge, or they may be intimidated by Umbridge's "proposal" to let them study for another year.
No student in Defense Against the Dark Arts class got sick anymore.Umbridge looked at the students reading the textbook content in the classroom with satisfaction. Before get out of class was over, she raised her hand and knocked on the podium to signal the students to look at her.
Halia noticed that in the past Umbridge would only get the attention of the students by feigning a cough - like when she interrupted Dumbledore at the start-of-term dinner.But today Umbridge didn't have a fake cough. After knocking on the podium and noticing that the eyes of the students were all looking at her, she started talking.
"It's still some time before the end of this class. I'm glad that everyone's physical condition has recovered well after the Christmas break. Except for Mr. Davis, no other students were unable to attend class today due to some syndrome.
"However, as I told Mr. Davis before, the number of absences from Defense Against the Dark Arts class due to illness has reached half. Do you need to study for another year?"
Umbridge smiled kindly at everyone, but it seemed to everyone that she seemed scarier than usual.
After the get out of class was over, the students walked out of the classroom, and Candice complained to Halia: "Why didn't she just say that if she misses a class, she will come back for another year, instead she has to wait until the end of the semester to make a judgment!"
Halia smiled wryly: "She has such a tool in her hand that can be used to threaten us, how can she use it so easily, telling us how many classes we miss before re-reading."
What Halia didn't say is that this is the same as Umbridge's threat to reorganize the Gryffindor Quidditch team before, and she holds the right to make specific decisions in her own hands.
Candice also sighed after listening to Halia's words. It was she who also saw the intention of Umbridge's threat and complained to Halia.
It wasn't just Ravenclaw in the seventh grade. Soon, news spread throughout Hogwarts that Umbridge threatened students to re-read because of absenteeism.
After dinner, when Halia was walking in the corridors of the castle, she saw several lower grade students gathered together to discuss the few lessons they had missed in Defense Against the Dark Arts since the start of school.
"I'm missing about two-thirds of my class, and I don't know how Pink Toad will assess it," said the third year, wearing a red Gryffindor scarf.
"I'm probably missing a half? But she really didn't teach us anything in class, did she? Not as much as I did in the library on my own. Shouldn't we be judged by whether or not we passed the exam?" One said the third year in the blue Ravenclaw wizard robes.
When they saw senior students passing by, they automatically lowered their voices to speak.
Halia glanced at them and walked briskly to the empty classroom where she and the Weasley twins had agreed to meet.Sure enough, the expressions on their faces didn't look as happy as usual.
"Leah, did Pink Toad threaten you with 'rereading' in your class?" Fred looked annoyed.
Halia nodded: "You've heard that too?" She knew that Fred and George had no Defense Against the Dark Arts class this week, and Umbridge only caught Lee eating right after leaving the classroom in their class. The prevalence of antiemetic sugar.
George smiled wryly: "The students in the lower grades asked us to order a batch of prank candies in advance before the start of school, but they came to us to refund the money one after another this afternoon. They told us that the pink toad threatened them that they might go back to school for another year, so they bought it There is no way to continue eating prank candies in class."
What George didn't say was that because of this batch of advance orders, they purchased during the Christmas season when the raw materials were relatively high, and they spent a lot more than usual, but because of the large number of chargebacks, the products on this batch Basically everything is a loss.
Fred curled his lips: "Listen to them, Pink Toad is still announcing in class, 'The best way to fight disease is to learn her Defense Against the Dark Arts'. I don't know what's going on in her head. Listen The Leitlins said..."
"You still have contact with Slytherin students?" Halia was surprised.
"No." Fred shook his head, "It's Seid, he heard from the Slytherin students that Umbridge wants to organize her 'investigative action team' to help her catch the non-compliant students in the castle Umbridge also assured the Slytherins that her group membership was equivalent to that of a prefect."
"Wow—oh—" Halia opened her mouth exaggeratedly, just about to say something.
The door of the classroom where the three of them were was opened, and a Slytherin student walked in proudly: "You can't stay in an empty classroom, go back to your common room."
Halia saw that this person was Montague, the captain of the Slytherin Quidditch team, and there were several other figures behind him.There has been a lot of tension between the Slytherin and Gryffindor players because of the Quidditch match.
Fred stood up and mocked, "We're here to do our homework. Of course, you gorilla may not know what 'doing homework' is all about."
"Go back to your common room and write." Montague's eyes fell on Fred and George, as if he just saw them, "Oh, I forgot, you two Weasleys are suspended, Greg You are not welcome in the Ryffindor common room. But, I repeat..."
"Is there a rule that you can't do your homework in an empty classroom?" Halia saw Fred and George tightly gripping their wands, worried that the two of them would conflict with Slytherin's montage, which would lead to another Bigger trouble.
Montague heard Halia's words, snorted coldly, and pointed to a silver "i" character on his robe: "I am a member of the 'Investigative Action Team' selected by Professor Umbridge, and I said that I cannot You can’t do your homework in an empty classroom. If there wasn’t such a rule before, there is now. So, get out.”
