Because of the previous explosion and hearing that Potter was taken away by Filch, everyone was curious about what the Toad was doing
Didn’t you say you wanted to expel Peeves
There was an explosion right after, but why did everything suddenly stop
Are you all looking forward to Aurors vs. Peeves
What a bummer.
However, they soon found new sources of happiness.
When passing through the hallway, everyone could smell a foul odor, and their attention was drawn to something covered with black cloth.
Someone was curious and reached out to lift the black cloth to see what was hidden inside.
The toad statue hidden under the black cloth instantly shocked the students passing by, and whispers surged like a tide, becoming the hottest topic among people.
The toad looked so much like... no, it looked exactly like Umbridge.
The news spread quickly throughout the school, and the lobby was soon crowded with people, even professors came to watch.
The only problem is that the toad seems to be a bit smelly, and it is located next to the hall, which may affect the students' appetite.
Originally everyone wanted to move the statue to another location, but the spell not only failed, it was actually bounced back. They finally knew why the statue was here.
Otherwise, given Umbridge's personality, she would have smashed the statue instead of covering it with a black cloth. Toad's level of spells was obviously no match for the statue.
By the way, where did the toad go? Now that this kind of thing happened, she didn't even jump out, which made everyone feel incredible.
What surprised everyone even more was that no professor tried to move the stinking toad statue away, as if the professors had tacitly agreed to put it there to pollute everyone's sense of smell, and also intended to use the statue to make Umbridge a complete laughing stock and be remembered by future students.
Several curious students went to the corridor outside the Defense Against the Dark Arts Office to inquire for useful information.
However, as soon as I arrived at that corridor, I smelled a disgusting stench.
Several brave men held their breath and used the unlocking spell to secretly open the wooden door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, trying to find out what was going on inside.
The moment the wooden door of the office was pushed open, everyone opened their mouths and widened their eyes in surprise, and were all stunned by the scene inside the office.
The stench that came towards them made these brave men cough repeatedly, and one of them even vomited on the spot because of the disgust.
There’s nothing we can do, it’s just too miserable!
Not only had the Defense Against the Dark Arts Office turned into a foul, filthy swamp filled with a foul smell, but even their new headmistress Umbridge and the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic who had come to deal with Peeves had fainted, and their bodies were covered in all kinds of filth. If you didn't know better, you would have thought they had just been fished out of a cesspool.
People don't know what exactly happened here, but the result is not difficult to guess. It's nothing more than Umbridge and her gang of unlucky people being wiped out by Peeves again.
The scene inside the Defense Against the Dark Arts Office once again attracted a large number of students. If it weren't for the stench in here, the entire corridor would probably be crowded with students.
Even the professors were unwilling to step forward to help clean up the mess because it was so stinky and disgusting.
Another reason is that the professors are also willing to see Umbridge in trouble, and the more unlucky Umbridge is, the more comfortable they feel. Seeing Umbridge and the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic so miserable, I wonder how many students and professors cheered in their hearts.
As for Madam Pomfrey of the school hospital, she directly stated that she could not cure the injuries of Umbridge and the Aurors, and suggested that Professor McGonagall should immediately send Umbridge and the Aurors to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries for more formal treatment.
However, Professor McGonagall didn't want to care about it. She dispersed the students who were watching, used magic to isolate the corridor outside the Defense Against the Dark Arts Office, and sent a notice to the Ministry of Magic in the name of Hogwarts, asking them to send someone to solve the problem of the toad.
No one was surprised by Umbridge's failure. After all, there weren't many things that a toad could accomplish. But it was the first time they had seen Umbridge mess herself up so badly.
"Perhaps the Anti-Toad League is also secretly involved in this matter?"
This was the true thought in the minds of many members of the Anti-Toad League. In the entire Hogwarts, only the Anti-Toad League dared to stand up and fight against Umbridge. Moreover, the swamp in the Defense Against the Dark Arts Office was very similar to the portable swamp that Fred and George had mentioned.
Did Fred, George and Lee Jordan kill Toad and the Aurors together
How on earth did they do it.
Everyone was curious about what happened in this office.
However, there were others who were more surprised than them and wanted to find out what was going on.
After receiving the urgent letter from Hogwarts, Minister of Magic Fudge was almost driven crazy by the contents of the envelope. Fudge never thought that twenty Aurors, those were twenty elite Aurors, could not even handle a naughty Peeves
It was not difficult to see from the photos that Professor McGonagall sent him how miserable those unfortunate guys were. They were far more miserable than the last time Fudge was driven out of Hogwarts by a dung bomb.
"Investigate, investigate for me. I want to know who is buying up the dung bombs in large quantities and who is behind this!" Fudge gave the order to his right-hand man Percy Weiss. He was determined to find that guy.
"Yes, Minister," Percy said respectfully.
"Very good, you can help me with this matter as well." Fudge patted Percy on the shoulder, handed him the parchment and said, "I have confidence in you."
He took the parchment handed to him by the minister, read the contents on it, then bent down to pick up the photo thrown on the ground by the minister, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
"Do you want an Auror to accompany you?" asked Fudge.
"I'll take care of it!" After Percy stood up, he left the minister's office and prepared to go to Hogwarts.
Cornelius Fudge was very self-aware and naturally did not dare to go alone, fearing that he would be attacked by someone, and even with the protection of Aurors, he would not be safe. Judging from what happened to Umbridge, she must have been attacked by someone, so it was undoubtedly the best choice to find a responsible young man to do this, and the hardworking Percy Weiss was his best helper.
What Fudge did was quite correct, as Percy Weiss was indeed chased by Peeves using dung bombs.
However, Percy still completed the task assigned by Fudge very well and sent Umbridge and the Aurors to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries.
Some unpleasant things happened during this period.
St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries almost refused admission to the smelly Umbridge because they were so smelly and disgusting that they seriously polluted the hospital environment.
Well, no matter who they are, they will stay away from them.
"Minister, I found Dawlish and his gang at the school gate. It is said that they are here to hunt down Hagrid..." Percy was about to report the information he had obtained to Fudge when he was interrupted by the other party.
"Thank you for your hard work, Weiss. I think you need to get some rest." Fudge covered his mouth and nose and said to Percy, "Go back and take a good bath and have a good night's rest. We will talk about this tomorrow."
"It's the Minister." Percy was also a little embarrassed because he was filled with a foul smell, which was indeed a bit...
All in all, Percy got a short vacation.
However, before Fudge could receive Weiss's report, he received the bad news first. All major newspapers were scrambling to report the incident. It was said that someone had sent them photos and news. Even the news that the Ministry of Magic Aurors were wiped out at the gate of Hogwarts was reported in a rush.
Fudge was once again pushed to the forefront.
Not only that, even Albert, who had been holding back on a big move, also threw it out. Under the deliberate guidance of some people with ulterior motives, the voices calling for Fudge to step down have become louder and louder recently.
People were disappointed with the stupid minister, and even they had to admit that trusting the Ministry of Magic in the first place was the stupidest decision.
