Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 181: Apology letter

Views:

"Oh, my God, Mafalda, what happened? Who made her angry?" Rufus put his half-finished drink on his desk, looked up at the office where the sound came from, and asked the director's assistant.

"Someone sent a letter." Mafalda glanced at the office door and whispered, "And then, it became like this."

Unlike Rufus, Mafalda is a little afraid of her boss, and every time she talks about her, she is extremely careful not to lose her current job.

"A letter?" Rufus didn't understand, but he didn't ask any more questions because he knew his boss's character.

Yes, a letter, a letter that has been torn into pieces.

The Director of the Improper Use of Magic Office had never been so angry. She felt threatened, and the one who threatened her was Hertog Dagworth.

She was not unfamiliar with the name.

Hertok Dagworth had come once before a few days ago, but she had flatly refused him.

This time, Hetok didn't come, but he sent her a letter, which roughly meant: If you don't apologize to him, then I will have to apologize through the Daily Prophet.

Hertok even had someone write an apology and sent it in an envelope.

Even without reading the manuscript, she knew what consequences would arise if a Potions Master like Hertog Dagworth apologized for the trouble he had caused in the Daily Prophet.

No one would think that Hertog Dagworth was making a fuss. They would think why the Ministry of Magic's mistake required the Potions Master to apologize.

Then, it was her turn for bad luck.

The worst case scenario is that she loses her current position. Many people are eyeing her position, and those colleagues with whom she has a bad relationship will definitely take advantage of her situation.

Apologize, this is the only thing to do now.

Let Hertok Dagworth get his gold membership card back smoothly, otherwise... who knows what else he will do.

It is really incomprehensible why things turned out like this.

The problem still needs to be solved.

Who is the guy that Hertog wants to apologize to

"Mafalda."

The director of the Improper Use of Magic Office had long forgotten who had caused all this trouble for her, but she knew that her assistant knew about it, and that Mafalda was one of the few people who knew about it.

Finally, after Mafalda searched the archives, she wrote a letter of apology herself. Actually, she could have asked her assistant to write it for her, but... she didn't do it in the end to avoid any more trouble.

How could a person who can be the director of the Office for the Prohibition of the Abuse of Magic be a brainless person

It's just a small matter, just bear with it and it will pass, just bear with it... The feather pen in my hand bent.

On a weekend afternoon, Albert left Rowena's office. Professor Smith was good at many things and the two had a lot of common topics.

The academic exchanges and communication between the two sides enabled Albert’s skills and experience to soar.

As soon as he returned to the lounge, a senior boy called Albert and handed him a letter. There was only the recipient's name on the envelope, but not the sender's name. It was very strange, but when Albert saw the w on the beeswax, he knew that the letter was from the Ministry of Magic.

Albert had already guessed the contents of the letter, so he opened it on the spot.

Mr. Anderson:

We have received a letter from Mr. Hertok...

Albert took a quick glance and saw that they were all hypocritical excuses and the so-called apology was completely insincere, but Albert did not expect the other party to really apologize.

What Albert was more concerned about was the name of the sender, Dolores Umbridge, Director of the Department of Magic, Ministry of Magic.

"Dolores Umbridge?" Albert looked at the sender's name and repeated it softly.

Then, Albert couldn't help but frowned slightly and murmured: "Umbridge? I seem to have some impression of her. Ministry of Magic? Umbridge... Professor of Hogwarts... Defense Against the Dark Arts... Pink... Toad... Senior Inquisitor of Hogwarts!"

"Oh, it's that guy!" Albert suddenly realized and finally remembered who this guy was.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who appeared in the fifth book? Who would have thought that he was actually the head of the Department of Prohibition of the Abuse of Magic.

At this moment, Albert understood why Hertok hated this woman so much.

Calling her an ugly woman is not an exaggeration at all!

In Albert's fragmented memories, Umbridge was a self-righteous, unreasonable woman with an extreme desire for control.

Expect her to apologize

It's really difficult, and it's really hard for Hertok. It's not easy for him to get the gold membership card back.

Albert checked the envelope and compared it with the notes on the warning letter he remembered. It should not have been written by the guy named Mafalda Hopkirk.

In fact, there is another clue.

The handwriting on the parchment was so dark that it looked as if the writer wanted to poke a hole in it.

This is enough to show that the writer was very excited at the time.

If Albert knew that Umbridge had spent five quills to write this letter, he would not just be excited.

In Albert's opinion, if the other party could take all these details into account, he could only say that this was the case.

However, this is unlikely.

However, knowing that Dolores Umbridge was the head of the Abuse of Magic Department at the Ministry of Magic, it was not difficult for Albert to understand why she allowed the Dementors to attack Harry.

After all, as the director of the Department for the Prohibition of the Abuse of Magic, she was naturally well aware of the relevant laws.

"What's wrong? Whose letter is it?" Li Qiaodan asked curiously.

"Ministry of Magic, the last incident has been resolved." Albert folded the letter and put it back into his robe pocket. "Where are you going?"

"Library, together?"

"Okay, wait a minute. I'm just about to go to the library to look up something." Albert returned to the dormitory to get his things.

"Check something?" Li Qiaodan suddenly realized, "A riddle?"

"What riddle?"

"You didn't know?" Li Jordan looked at Shanna in surprise.

"Know what?" Sana asked in confusion.

"It's the bet between Albert and Katrina!" Li Jordan explained with a smile, "I heard that they bet on answering the riddles. I heard Albert and Katrina say this morning that the time is estimated to be in the middle of the month, to see who can answer the 100 riddles correctly."

"One hundred riddles?" Sana couldn't help but widen her eyes. The riddles were not too difficult for her, but answering a hundred riddles correctly was not an easy task.

There is no doubt that this is a contest between two geniuses.

"Who do you think will win?" Lee Jordan asked Shanna.

"Of course it's Albert," Sana said matter-of-factly. "That guy is a true genius. How could he lose to someone else?"
