Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

"Umbridge—'Senior Investigator'?"

Hannah frowned, regaining her human form from a koala state, and looked at the newspaper in Hermione's hands, "What does this mean?"

Hermione glanced quickly at the pink toad who was still talking to Dumbledore, and whispered:

"Magic education is at the door of a new era. Stable and correct guidance of educational reform is the core demand of the Ministry of Magic. Therefore, in an interim high ministerial meeting last week, the Ministry of Magic passed a new decree: "The Twentieth "Two Educational Orders" to strengthen the control of all circles of magic over the process of Hogwarts’ new curriculum standards, so as to better **** the reform of the level of magic education—"

"Escort? They almost took the professors into Azkaban." Hannah raised her eyebrows and said with a weird expression.

"Wait, the real highlight is here." Hermione said sullenly.

"- It is reported that the senior investigator exists as a member of the Hogwarts faculty team and is not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic. She has the right to review her faculty and colleagues to ensure that they all meet the basic teaching standards. Professor Umbridge is in In addition to her teaching position, she was awarded this position. Considering the importance of the new curriculum standard teaching reform, she decided to temporarily remove the post of senior vice minister and devote herself to teaching and review."

"These new measures of the Ministry of Magic and Professor Umbridge's decision soon received warm support and praise from the parents of Hogwarts students."

"'Understanding that Professor Umbridge chose to return to teaching, the admiration in my heart is beyond words.' Mr. Lucius Malfoy, thirty-nine, was in his Wiltshire mansion last night. Dili said,'Hogwarts' Defence Against the Dark Arts course has always lacked systematic guidance. Now that Professor Umbridge has not been affected by the previous rumors, we are relieved.' "

"The so-called rumors are undoubtedly referring to Deputy Minister Umbridge’s emergency arrest of Quirinas Quirrell last week. There were a lot of controversies and ultra vires in that operation by the Ministry of Magic. There have been relevant reports and comments."

"On the other hand, in a recent temporary operation initiated by Deputy Minister Dolores Umbridge, the Ministry of Magic successfully raided three unregistered illegal werewolf gathering points to control the werewolf population in the UK. The intensity has reached an unprecedented level. The Sir Merlin jury is discussing the award of honors, and the Anti-Dark Magic League has recently announced that Ms. Umbridge has become their lifetime honorary member..."

Hermione scanned the content behind, shrugged, rolled up the newspaper and placed it on the plate.

"Well, the latter is to tout her specialty in Defence Against the Dark Arts, there is nothing nutritious — there are two core points, she can now review and even fire professors; and the success of fighting against werewolves offset the previous controversial behavior. Incidentally, she became an anti-black pioneer."

"Dismiss the professor?! I can't believe it, this right is too terrible!"

After listening to Hermione's voice announcement, Ginny looked shocked, and watched Hermione shortly for further interpretation.

However, this time she was obviously going to be disappointed.

Because the confusion in Hermione Granger's eyes was less than hers.

Hermione frowned and looked at Elena.

She originally thought that after the fiasco was defeated by Professor Apocalis last week, even if Professor Umbridge returned to Hogwarts, he would at least keep a low profile for a while. Who knows that from this point of view, the Ministry of Magic's treatment of Hogwar On the contrary, Ci's intervention intensified.

This is too unreasonable, right? Did the officials of the Ministry of Magic all hit the Forgotten Curse? !

"Generally speaking, there are two ways to deal with mistakes."

Elena picked up the napkin and wiped her mouth, raised her **** unhurriedly, and said softly.

"Repent and find a way to make up, admit your mistakes and apologize but continue to do your own way, but for the politicians of the Ministry of Magic, the first kind will greatly reduce the reputation, and the second kind will be questioned and corrupted. Then, now there is only one answer left. …Try to prove that you are right."

"This is the law of survival in the political arena. If Hermione intends to enter the Ministry in the future, you have to learn these things."

"No, I won't even consider going into politics in my life." Hermione refused without thinking.

"Oh, maybe—"

Elena glanced at the future Minister of Magic in the original world line, shrugged noncommittal, and continued with a smile.

"However, the addition of a senior investigator is a good thing, especially for Hogwarts."

"What do you mean?"

"Hogwarts now has a total of eight grades. At present, in addition to flying classes that are only available in the first grade, there are now a total of nine compulsory courses, that is, 72 different syllabuses... If the class factor is taken into account, Then you have to multiply by two, that's 144."

After negotiation and discussion, grammar and mathematics classes were temporarily divided into compulsory courses.

Perhaps the future will be adjusted accordingly, but in a short time, it should still become one of the students’ nightmares.

After a short pause, Elena glanced at the course selection sheet that she had just received from Cedric.

"...Then, there are currently six elective courses, and the first and second grades are rubbing courses. If you count it, there are about 36 different syllabuses. If you add compulsory courses, there are roughly 108 to 180. Different syllabus planning."

"On the other hand, due to the current status of the new curriculum standards and new curriculum reforms, many courses have enriched a lot of content on the original basis. Therefore..."

"So, Professor Umbridge alone cannot take care of all Hogwarts courses at the same time?"

Hermione nodded thoughtfully, and asked tentatively on Elena's words.

"Completely correct-"

Elena snapped her fingers, and Dumao shook it triumphantly, and said softly, rather happily.

"But outside the school, whether it's the Magic Society, the school board, or the Ministry of Magic, don't think so. According to the current rules, subjects that fail to raise questions or raise questions this semester will be considered as qualified for the first term acceptance. What's more, Professor Umbridge still has courses..."

"All in all, the explanation is over-it doesn't matter if you don't understand it, anyway, you won't be able to test this."

Ginny and Hannah turned their heads to look at Elena, and then at Hermione, still blank expressions.

However, compared to the other two idiots, Miss "Calculator Ji" clearly understood the explanation and nodded thoughtfully.

It makes more sense to think about it this way. This is a teaching game between Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic.

Umbridge's rights and the damage she might cause are not as great as they seem.

No matter how great the right of censorship is, it will eventually be limited by the constraints of time and energy and cannot be truly liberated.

If she focuses on reviewing those subjects that have undergone more changes, she will have to spend a lot of energy to understand new knowledge.

Maybe Umbridge doesn’t have to grasp the concept as accurately as a student, but she has to rely on some knowledge points to raise objections. This is not a simple task. It is foreseeable that many of her attacks may follow. "Curriculum revision" is easily resolved.

On the other hand, from the information that Elena just revealed, Hogwarts should be a grade that intends to split the subject.

This means that if Umbridge wants to stagnate or even dismiss a professor, the scope of her review must cover all the courses that the professor is responsible for, otherwise her "evidence" may only stop her. The courses of the grades reviewed.

After all, this school year is almost halfway through, and the long Christmas holiday will soon be ushered in, and Professor Umbridge is running out of time.

"Well, don't frown and think about these unimportant things, let's study how to choose courses—"

Elena clapped her hands and ended the discussion about the pink toad. Don't talk about disgusting things while eating.

"There is only one Fantastic Beast to choose from every week, and this is best to grab it directly... This time the course selection is selected together for the first and second grades. The competition is not small, and it is best to set it before the end of breakfast. Muggle Research studies can also be considered, and ancient Rune studies also suggest learning..."

"Ancient Rune study?" Ginny was stunned for a few seconds.

The ancient rune script is a type of script used by wizards hundreds of years ago. In her impression, this course and the history of magic are called the two major hypnosis courses at Hogwarts. After all, not many people would find it interesting to study the magical manuscripts of ancient runes and their related translations.

Anyway, almost no one at Gryffindor College will take this course after entering the third grade.

"Well, Elena and I's strength and healing abilities come from the magical effects of Rune Mowen, Rua..."

Hannah nodded her head, and happily took the initiative to explain, while picking up the metal spoon and bending it into a bracelet easily like plasticine.

"But I'm not sure if I will teach it in class, because the content is actually—sizzle—"

"There are many secrets hidden in ancient magic texts. It is not only power, but more importantly the inheritance of ancient knowledge."

Elena calmly released her hand pinched on Hannah’s waist, and quickly continued, “Anyway, Hannah, the ancient magic text class, you have to sign up for it. You lack basic system understanding. On the other hand, it is best not to fall behind in Muggle Studies."

"Muggle Studies... do we need to take electives too?"

Hermione frowned, slid her fingers on the parchment, and said hesitantly.

"This course is mainly aimed at children of wizarding families? To understand Muggles from the perspective of wizards, I heard that most of the content in the class is also some basic common sense of life. In comparison, I am more curious about divination and Arithmetic divination—"

If a wizard wants to work in Muggle liaison after graduation, he must obtain excellent results in the Muggle Studies subject of NEWT (Advanced Wizard Start). However, there is an exception to this requirement-if the wizard was born in Ma Melon World, the so-called hemp wizard in the magical world, can skip this level of screening indicators by default, which is directly equivalent to an excellent grade in Muggle Studies.

So for Hermione, what she needs to consider more is whether class time is meaningful.

You know, there are a total of six elective courses open at Hogwarts this round.

From the time point of view, even if it is full from Monday to Friday, a student can only choose four elective courses at most—the elective course is shown in accordance with the official course schedule of third-grade students. Because the original course conflicts are also taken into account, the lower grades You can choose in the afternoon and part of the evening.

"Divination? Arithmetic divination?"

Elena softly repeated a sentence with a subtle expression, and shook her head slightly.

"Unfortunately, then you may have to consider giving up one. Muggle studies after that may be different from what you imagined. The confrontation between Professor Umbridge and Professor Quirrell, Hogwarts period The teaching changes and the response of the Ministry of Magic, and... well, combined with some off-campus information you know... Hermione, you are so smart, you should be able to guess what is going on in magic education, right?"

"Magic and science, are trying to merge?" Hermione whispered.

"Yes."

"Understood, then I will choose divination."

After Hermione's eyes hovered for a few seconds on the selection table in her hand, she finally made up her mind.

She took out a pen from her schoolbag and drew √ on the four courses of Muggle Studies, Fantastic Zoology, Ancient Runic Character Studies, and Divination.

Arithmetic divination can wait until the next semester, after all, she still has a math class. Regarding mysterious divination, Hermione has always had high expectations and curiosity, especially after meeting Elena and Luna, she gradually believed that metaphysics might exist.

"But, if you choose Muggle Studies..."

Ginny said hesitantly, subconsciously raising her head to look at the faculty seat at the end of the auditorium.

"Since Professor Umbridge is back, then Professor Quirrell's class after—"

"What are you worried about? Ginny. Professor Umbridge once again took Professor Quirrell, or fired Professor Quirrell, and then everyone didn’t have to hand in the Muggle research assignments for the next week? Professor Apocalis can substitute for the class."

Hannah grinned, rubbed Ginny's cheek like Elena, and continued.

"If you want me to say it, that's great-I can see her being beaten once every time, and I don't have to go to class or hand in homework. To be honest, I can't wait to see Professor Apolkalis being censored. The scene, that must be quite interesting!"

Since Professor Apolkalis defeated the Auror of the Ministry of Magic easily with a one-to-six, the low-key and domineering old castle administrator quickly replaced Dumbledore and became a ruthless, low-key and domineering old castle administrator. Became a new idol among students.

Many students even began to imitate the movements and lines of the old devil.

As the first Hogwarts Commissioner of Discipline, Hannah’s greatest wish is that one day Professor Apolkalis can replace the class again.

You know, as long as Professor Apocalis's class, homework is never assigned.

"Professor Umbridge is not that stupid..."

Hermione gave Hannah a blank look, and looked at her as if she was an idiot, and resisted not pouring cold water.

"Okay, hurry up. If you want to choose a few more courses, then you have to hand in the form this morning, and you will have to go to class later. If Professor Umbridge happens to check our class in the first round, and You happen to be late, maybe it's not great, right?"

Great!
