The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 491 So angry

The twins and Lee Jordan started their revenge quickly, but their revenge also affected many innocent people.

On the floor where Umbridge's office was located, the twins blocked the drain in the boys' bathroom and turned on the faucet, and the water soon flooded the floor.

One bathroom wasn't enough, so with Ginny's help they blocked the girls' bathroom as well.

The sewage in the two bathrooms accumulated more and more, and gradually overflowed the bathrooms. Under the guidance of the twins, the sewage finally gathered at the door of Umbridge's office and flowed into the office through the gap in the door.

Umbridge, who was in the office, hurried out to check, but as soon as she opened the door, a large dung egg and a stinky egg exploded at her feet, and Umbridge was immediately enveloped in foul-smelling smoke.

Umbridge waved her wand wildly and finally dispersed the smoke, but a few more fireworks flew towards her with a whoosh and a bang.

Umbridge wanted to use magic to solve the problem, but the fireworks did not dissipate after being hit by the spell. Instead, they flew faster as if stimulated, and were right in front of her in the blink of an eye.

There was no other way, so Umbridge had to run away, screaming as she went.

As soon as Umbridge ran away, the twins and Lee Jordan came out from their hiding place, all three of them with triumphant smirks on their faces.

Holding their noses, they walked to the door of the office and threw two more fireworks into Umbridge's office. Under the effect of the fireworks, the office became a mess, as if there had just been a war.

The three of them high-fived, celebrated today's victory a little, and then turned and left.

Umbridge ran wildly, chased by fireworks. Wherever she went, she was surrounded by professors and students, causing everyone to laugh. But after a few laughs, everyone rolled their eyes because of the stench on her body.

The combination of dung eggs and stinky eggs smells so good that it's almost intoxicating.

Today is just the beginning, Umbridge will suffer more in the future.

By dinner time that night, Umbridge had finally washed off the unpleasant smell on her body. She stormed into the hall, wanting to find the culprit and bring him to justice.

Umbridge certainly knew who had done all this. She had just banned Harry and the twins for life in the morning, and in the afternoon she was retaliated against. Who else could it be except the twins and Harry!

Umbridge was furious and went berserk in the hall. She yelled that she would make the twins and Harry pay for what they had done and that she would expel them.

Harry, who was eating, had an innocent look on his face. He really didn't know what was going on. Fred and George pretended to be innocent. Anyway, Umbridge hadn't caught them in the act, so the two brothers would just deny it.

Umbridge was cursing like a shrew; Fred, George and Harry looked innocent, saying, "I don't understand what you are saying"; all the surrounding students covered their mouths and noses, full of disgust.

This chaos naturally attracted the attention of the professors. Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick left their seats and rushed over.

The two respected deans jointly suppressed Umbridge on the grounds that there was no evidence. Only then did the gas-tight shrew calm down a little and leave the hall angrily.

Everyone knew that the farce in the afternoon was the work of the twins, but without evidence, Umbridge could not do anything to the brothers. Even if Fudge came in person, he could not do so.

As she left, Umbridge was still clamoring to find evidence to expel the twins and Harry.

Umbridge left in a rage, but the teachers and students in the hall were laughing. Except for Filch, everyone in the school disliked Umbridge.

Even the Slytherins who supported her only wanted to use her against Gryffindor.

It was a pity that Ada was not in the hall, otherwise she would have seen Umbridge's miserable state with her own eyes. Ada went to the headmaster's office and listened to Hagrid, who had just returned to school, talk about his experience during this period.

Hagrid's hair was a mess, with blood clots on it, his left eye was swollen into a slit, blue and purple, his face and hands were covered with scars, some of which were still bleeding. Ada really didn't expect that the tall and strong Hagrid could be beaten into such a state.

Pulling out her wand, Ada used a healing spell to simply clean Hagrid's wounds, at least to stop them from bleeding further.

Hagrid also slowly recounted his experiences during this period. In Dijon, he and Ms. Maxime shook off the Ministry of Magic's tail and began to officially search for the whereabouts of the hidden giant.

It took them a full month to find the giant among the mountains.

Hagrid and Ms. Maxime spent two days gaining the trust of the giant Gogo (leader) Kakus. But that night, a fierce fight broke out between the giants, Kakus died, and the new Gogo Gorgo rejected wizards and almost killed Hagrid.

Since the Tall Horse approach was not feasible, Hagrid and Ms. Maxime tried to persuade other giants.

However, the arrival of the Death Eater MacNeill caused the giant Googol to side with Voldemort. Googol and MacNeill attacked the cave where Hagrid was hiding and killed the giant who was persuaded by Hagrid.

The surviving giants dared not deal with Hagrid again. This cruel race of giants completely sided with Voldemort. Hagrid and Ms. Maxime had to return empty-handed.

Dumbledore did not blame Hagrid. Giants were brutal and bloodthirsty, and were natural allies of Voldemort. He sent Hagrid to contact the giants just to make an attempt.

The principal comforted Hagrid for a few words, then let him go back and have a good rest, and told him to go to the school infirmary to get some pain-relieving and blood-dissolving ointment.

After Hagrid left the office, Dumbledore asked Ada, "You seem to have a lot of dissatisfaction?"

"Yes, I am very dissatisfied." Ada said bluntly, "But before that, I want to ask Sturgis Podmore what happened. He couldn't have obeyed your or Moody's orders."

Dumbledore was silent for a while, then said, "Sturges was controlled by the Imperius Curse, so he tried to break into the restricted area of ​​the Ministry of Magic."

"Has his identity as a member of the Order of the Phoenix been exposed, or is it just a coincidence?" Ada asked. If Sturgis Podmore's identity was exposed, it would mean that the Order of the Phoenix would be in even greater danger.

"From the current situation, Sturgis' identity has not been exposed." Dumbledore said, "But whether this is a coincidence or not, the Order of the Phoenix must be careful. We are attacked from all sides and cannot afford to make any mistakes."

Ada said unhappily, "You also know that we are attacked from all sides?"

Dumbledore had anticipated Ada's dissatisfaction, or rather the dissatisfaction of the teachers and students at Hogwarts. From the day Fudge proposed that Umbridge be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Dumbledore had anticipated this day.

"What happened in school is just a minor issue. Dolores Umbridge is just an insignificant person." Dumbledore said slowly, "You should learn to keep a calm mind. Don't be impatient when encountering things or people."

Ada walked back and forth in front of the headmaster's desk. Dumbledore looked at her quietly behind the desk without saying a word.

"That's easy for you to say," said Ada. "You're not a student. You don't have to face Umbridge's annoying face all day long, and you can disappear at any time. But we can't. Her face is like a money-losing commodity that was not sold in the 19th century and was thrown away in the 20th century!"

It’s only been a little over two months since the start of the school year, and Umbridge has already caused widespread resentment and outrage in the school. Everyone is waiting for someone to stand up and administer justice!
However, Dumbledore, who was able to uphold justice, turned a blind eye to it and even told Ada to stay calm and not be anxious.

Ada now wished she could pull out all the strands of Dumbledore's beard one by one to see if he would get anxious!
"It's just Umbridge, is it worth making such a fuss?" Dumbledore asked back, "You know, reality is much more annoying and cruel than Umbridge. If you can't even cope with a little oppression or difficulty, how can you talk about the future?"

Ada put her hands on her waist, as if she would utter beautiful words in the next second.

She was really irritated by Dumbledore's attitude.
