The relationship between Gryffindor and Slytherin became even worse due to Miles Blache's swan costume statue incident. Although there is no evidence at the moment, Slytherin students insist that this incident was a revenge by Gryffindor students.
Yesterday at noon, Miles Blige cursed Arya in public, causing her eyebrows to grow wildly and she was admitted to the school hospital. However, he escaped punishment due to Snape's protection, which angered the Gryffindor students. These guys, who never waited for revenge, gave the other party a big gift that day.
Who is the mastermind behind this
Who made Miles Blackie wear a ballet swan skirt to scare people, and how did they hide it from everyone and secretly put him on the sink as a sculpture decoration
All of this seems to be shrouded in a thick fog, and no one can see the truth clearly.
The biggest suspects at the moment are Albert and his friends, because Albert has the ability to do it without anyone noticing, but... such speculation cannot convince other students except Slytherin.
Few people doubted that Albert would do this. If he really wanted to make trouble for Miles Blackie, copying more education orders would be a better choice. Everyone had heard about what happened to Draco Malfoy. Many people thought that the punishment given by Albert was too light, and many people secretly gave him a thumbs up and said that he did a good job.
In fact, the strangest thing was that before Miles Blige was found, many students had used the bathroom and did not notice the unlucky guy who was fixed by the spell. Albert and his companions just happened to pass by on the way to the library and had no time to do anything else.
The most surprising thing is that Miles Blige didn't know who attacked him.
Yes.
The goalkeeper had no memory of the attackers. He did not see the attackers from beginning to end, nor did he hear their voices.
He knows nothing, like a little fool.
When he came to his senses, he found himself there.
This did not prevent Slytherin students from pointing the finger at Gryffindor students. If they could not find any evidence, they would blame Gryffindor for it.
A strong smell of tension gradually spread between the two colleges.
Unlike the minor fights in previous years, the pink toad actually took sides, and the situation was very unfavorable to the Gryffindor students. Several conflicts occurred in the corridor, most of which were deliberately provoked by Slytherin students. In the end, when it turned into a vicious incident, only Gryffindor students were put in detention and punished. This biased handling method undoubtedly aroused the dissatisfaction of the entire college, and people's hatred for the toad was rapidly increasing.
However, something magical happened to Albert. Although the Gryffindor students hated Umbridge, very few of them actually went to cause trouble for her. Instead, they blamed Albert for his inaction. Perhaps they thought that Albert should lead them to rebel against Slytherin and Umbridge.
Europeans have such a unique way of thinking.
"If you had not complained to me but had started the dispute within my sight and let the Slytherin students start it first, I would have handled the whole thing fairly."
However, few brave Gryffindors dared to challenge Umbridge's authority. They only knew how to complain to Albert, the president of the Student Union.
Perhaps, this is the norm for most people, the wailing of the weak, perhaps... There are actually very few truly brave Gryffindors, and bullying the weak and fearing the strong are their nature.
Maybe... who knows!
Anyway, Albert didn't care.
Those unwilling students would naturally retaliate against the Slytherin students in secret. The Slytherin students who dared to cause trouble would have their heads made close contact with the toilet in the bathroom. The most arrogant one was even hung in the Toad's office for a night. As a result, the Slytherin team members did not dare to be left alone, for fear that they would become the next unlucky one.
"In just one week, there were twenty-three vicious conflicts in the school." Professor McGonagall was almost furious.
"Everyone's been very angry lately." Albert's tone was relaxed and calm, as if all the conflicts had nothing to do with him.
"You are the Head Boy and Head Girl."
Professor McGonagall glared at Albert and Katrina who were sitting there drinking tea and eating biscuits. These two guys acted as if it had nothing to do with me, which made Professor McGonagall very dissatisfied.
"Professor, it's useless even if you complain to me." Albert smiled and handed Professor McGonagall a cup of tea with the aroma of chrysanthemums. "This is all trouble caused by the Quidditch game. There are always a few similar incidents every year. This year is just particularly serious because of Umbridge and Snape's favoritism..."
"Mr. Anderson." Professor McGonagall's forehead veins twitched slightly. She had never expected Albert to speak so directly and expose the truth without any concealment.
There are some things we all know, but...
"Some ugly facts cannot be covered up," Albert kindly reminded, "Umbridge and Snape's favoritism has caused some Slytherin students to want to cause trouble, and not all Gryffindor students are cowards. It is normal for people to be very dissatisfied with this, especially when they are treated unfairly, they will stand up and resist. There is a saying: Where there is oppression, there will be resistance, so it becomes the situation you see."
"It's probably hard to stop it!" Katrina put down her teacup and said, "Besides, if things get out of hand, the suppressed dissatisfaction will burst out all at once, which will only make the situation worse. By then, it won't just be a minor fight. You can't expect students to remain rational after being overwhelmed by anger."
"So, you just let..."
"Professor, your words are unfair. Anger is making you lose your mind. I suggest you drink some tea to calm down. Chrysanthemum tea can eliminate accumulated anger very well." Albert interrupted gently, "They never dare to make trouble under my nose."
"But you can't expect us to patrol the school like fire captains every day. We are busy enough every day. Perhaps you can consider mobilizing all the class leaders and professors who have free time to help maintain order in the school." Albert suggested.
"Is that what you're suggesting?" asked Professor McGonagall unhappily.
This was a bad idea, and it was just to appease her, because the prefects were simply unable to suppress those naughty students, and the professors had to teach students every day, so they had no extra time to do these things.
Well, Professor McGonagall had to admit that she was being affected by anger. She had accumulated a lot of stress and anger since Umbridge came to the school.
Everyone has a temper, and professors are no exception.
"Everyone needs to vent their pent-up emotions. As long as they don't go too far, let them deal with the little fights on their own! If there are any problems, you can find Umbridge. She likes to deal with these problems anyway, so just let her solve them herself." Albert's meaning was already very clear, he just lay down and ignored it.
"I thought you might have some useful advice."
"Useless professor, it's unfair to begin with. Any suggestions are meaningless. You should know that if you want to solve the problem, you must start from the source." Albert suggested with a smile: "How about I help you gather all the prefects and mobilize the students in the whole school to drive Umbridge out of Hogwarts and let her get out. Then, we can claim that Umbridge's experience was entirely caused by the Defense Against the Dark Arts curse."
"That's a good idea." Katrina's eyes lit up and she agreed, "The success rate should be high. As for the Ministry of Magic, we can just drive them away."
"The vacant position vacated by the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor can be temporarily filled by Professor Snape. I heard that he has always wanted to take this position."
"you… "
Professor McGonagall's cheeks twitched, and she was so angry at the two that she was speechless.
"Umbridge has messed up the school. We don't actually have much power. If she doesn't like it, maybe the student union president will be replaced someday." Katrina didn't care much. Ever since she found out that the whole school was a mess like Albert said, she didn't take the student union president matter to heart.
"I suggest that we consult Umbridge on everything. Maybe if she's happy, she'll stop bothering us." Albert added with a smile.
In the end, Professor McGonagall was so angry that she kicked the head boy and girl students out of her office. She found that the two of them were obviously the kind of people who were looking for trouble and didn't want to care about what happened in the school at all.
Perhaps they saw it too clearly.
"Is it not good for us to do that?"
Katrina looked at the wooden door that was rudely closed, then turned to ask Albert.
"Do you have any better way than to make them give up their illusions and face the facts?" Albert asked.
"This is not Professor McGonagall's fault. The whole school and the wizarding world are like this." Katrina shook her head. "Sometimes being too awake is not necessarily a good thing."
"I know, if Professor McGonagall doesn't want to wake up, there's nothing I can do. You can never wake up someone who wants to pretend to be asleep." Albert didn't care about Professor McGonagall's attitude, because he knew very well that after Dumbledore was driven away, Professor McGonagall finally gave up her fantasy and faced the reality.
"What do you think Professor McGonagall will do?" Katrina was silent for a moment and quickly followed Albert.
"Who knows!" Albert spread his hands and said, "Maybe she will stop assigning homework to everyone in Transfiguration class. She does this every time Gryffindor and Slytherin play."
Just as the two of them were walking up the stone steps, preparing to go to the library together, they suddenly heard a scream coming from the end of the corridor. They were so familiar with it.
It was Umbridge's scream, followed soon by a roar, which attracted the attention of a large group of people.
When they went to the direction where the sound came from, they saw Umbridge in impotent rage, with several large dung balls floating behind him.
These things were cast under a spell and smashed towards Umbridge. What was even weirder was that there was an image of the Anti-Toad Alliance on Umbridge's robe.
"I heard a while ago that Gryffindor students donated a large amount of Galleons to the Anti-Toad League, planning to buy a bunch of dung bombs to deal with certain people. I didn't expect it to be true."
A Hufflepuff boy, pinching his nose to block out the stench, was telling his companions the news he knew. He looked extremely excited, and a bunch of students who were watching the show were retching at Umbridge.
Amidst this noise, the Quidditch match between Gryffindor and Slytherin was gradually approaching. The number of conflicts between the two sides was gradually increasing. Every day, several students had to be carried to the school hospital due to serious conflicts. Madam Pomfrey was almost overwhelmed.
Umbridge's detention schedule was full, and later she even used an empty classroom to punish naughty students.
As a result, the keyhole was blocked on the first day, and then someone threw a laughing bomb made of Ariot leaves into the classroom, causing the punished students to laugh wildly at Umbridge.
