Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

Chapter 358 Night Attack

Just when Umbridge was smug about punishing an ugly cat.

In the darkness, a pair of large dark hands suddenly stretched out and put a cloth pocket over Umbridge's head.

The people surrounding Umbridge were all taken aback, a few girls screamed instinctively, and everyone immediately dispersed, looking in horror at the almost invisible figure in the dark and the pair of exposed pairs. The big black hand under the light was full of fear.

To know that they were by Umbridge's side just now, it stands to reason that the person who attacked Umbridge was so close, they should have been discovered by them long ago.

But the man came to him unwittingly.

'This must be a stealth master! ’

Thinking of this, Harry suddenly felt a cold sweat on his back.

Umbridge, who was suddenly attacked on the other side, was also panicked at the moment, and in a hurry, he wanted to reach out and grab the sack over his head.

However, more people emerged from the darkness. They all wore Hogwarts robes, but they didn't wear anything that could prove that they belonged to the Academy, and each of them had a mask on their face. The snow-white baseball mask looks terrifying.

Several of them punched and kicked Umbridge, and Umbridge screamed repeatedly.

And it wasn't until then that Umbridge remembered that he was a wizard. In the confusion, Umbridge waved the wand that was still shining in his hand.

Seeing that the light on Umbridge's wand became more and more intense, he saw a red light flashing away, and then the wand in Umbridge's hand spun and flew out.

The wand went out in mid-air, and the hallway was plunged into invisible darkness again.

In such darkness, the sound of fists hitting the flesh and the screams of Umbridge came constantly. These two sounds were mixed together, and Harry and others were excited to hear it!

They didn't plan to save Umbridge!

"You are dead! You are dead! Ah! Whoever you are, I will send you to Azkaban!"

Umbridge shouted, and I don't know if it was an illusion. After Umbridge said the threatening words, Harry felt that the frequency of the collision of fists and flesh in the darkness seemed to be faster.

"Fight! Fight!"

In the dark, Ron was clenching his fists to cheer for the masked people, wishing to go up and kick Umbridge himself.

On their side, there are actually many such people, but none of them really dare to take advantage of the chaos to take revenge.

They were all terrified of Umbridge's punishment!

Less than five minutes into the tragic beating, Umbridge began to beg for mercy, and Harry could hear her voice getting weaker and weaker.

Seeing the mask, the people stopped one after another.

Umbridge finally stopped, stopped talking, and lay on the ground gasping for breath.

Seeing that, she seemed to have no strength to reach out to lift the cloth bag on her head.

"Go to sleep."

Mike, who was also wearing a black robe and a mask, walked out of the darkness while speaking, and gestured with his right hand in mid-air.

A gray light burst out from his fingertips and hit Umbridge directly, knocking her unconscious.

Harry and the others looked curiously at the masked man who finally appeared and could cast spells silently and without a staff.

For some reason, Harry always felt that the voice of the masked man in front of him was very familiar. In addition, the other party was able to cast spells silently and without a stick, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on Harry's face.

He felt that he should already know the identity of the other party!

"wheat……"

Harry instinctively wanted to call the other party's name, but Hermione next to him suddenly covered his mouth and made a 'shush' gesture at him.

Harry, who had calmed down, also understood that if he had just called out Mike's name in public, it would definitely cause Mike a lot of trouble.

You must know that among these people present, there are many big mouths!

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, a flame suddenly burst into the dark corridor.

Harry looked closely and saw that the masked man who first put the sack on Umbridge was walking towards this side with a bunch of flames in his hands, and the source of the flames in his hand was a lighter!

"Listen! No one is allowed to tell what happened tonight!" The man deliberately lowered his voice and threatened Harry and the others, "I already remember your faces! If you let me know who of you dares to go out Nonsense, you will be the next to be beaten!"

Hearing that, many people looked at Umbridge, who was lying on the ground and didn't know if he was alive or dead, all looked horrified and kept nodding their heads.

Harry wanted to laugh very much, because based on the color of the man's skin, he already knew who he was - Franklin!

Mike on the other side did not approach Harry, but instead came to Mrs. Norris, who was still struggling and screaming on the ground while Franklin was brainwashing Harry and others.

Umbridge used the ear-folding spell on Mrs. Norris. This is a curse that can be classified as a mischievous spell. As the name suggests, its function is to fold the ears of creatures. For humans, this kind of magic The curse is not a big deal except that it can cause some discomfort, but for a cat like a creature, this curse can cause a lot of pain to it, which is why Mrs. Norris is still screaming. s reason.

And because the ear-folding curse is a curse, it is extremely difficult to get rid of this kind of curse, and the ordinary curse does not work on it at all!

Seeing the tragic state of Mrs. Norris, Mike frowned under the mask.

He couldn't understand why Umbridge would do anything to such a cat.

"All curses end."

With the incantation, Mike's fingertips floated out strips of light, wrapping Mrs. Norris in it.

At the beginning, Mrs. Norris was still struggling with pain, but when the light strips quickly dispelled the curse, Mrs. Norris gradually calmed down.

Finally, Mrs. Norris regained her freedom, and the first thing she did after she regained her freedom was a swooping jump on Umbridge's body, and two claws on Umbridge's exposed calf!

The fainted Umbridge didn't respond, Mrs. Norris claws down again when she saw this, and didn't stop until she caught Umbridge's calf into blood.

At this time, Franklin's ideological education for Harry and others also ended, and the masked people dispersed one after another, and Mike himself quickly left the crime scene after nodding at the three of Harry, leaving Harry alone. People stayed where they were and looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Meow meow!"

Mrs. Norris kept shouting in the direction where Mike left, sounding like she was thanking him.

Hermione's love became so great that she instinctively wanted to squat down and touch Mrs. Norris' head, but just as she reached out, she was more deftly pulled away, and the latter even hissed at Hermione. tooth.

"What should we do now?" Looking at Umbridge lying motionless on the ground, a boy said worriedly, "Why don't we tell Professor McGonagall? Or should we send her to the infirmary yourself?"

"You're crazy!? She tortured us just now, and you're sending her to the infirmary now? Doesn't the wound on your hand hurt?"

Ron retorted angrily, and others around him were desperately agreeing.

"If I say, let's just go back as if nothing happened? As for Umbridge, let her sleep here for the night."

"That's right! Let's do it!"

"Yes, anyway, the masked man told us just now that if we talk about it, we will beat our sap. If the professors really ask us this question, we can use this excuse to fool us!"

"that's right!"

"Just do it!"

The classmates quickly reached a consensus, so everyone left the fourth floor happily, leaving only Umbridge lying on the cold floor of Hogwarts with a burlap sack over his head.

...

Near noon the next day, Umbridge was finally discovered by Slytherin's classmates and sent to the infirmary.

After Madam Pomfrey's rescue, Umbridge's injuries were also announced.

Internal bleeding, multiple fractures, severe head bruising, severe concussion...

One after another professional terms came out of Madam Pomfrey's mouth, and Mag's head hurt a little when he heard it.

Shaking his head, Mag turned his attention to the onlookers who were whispering outside the door of the infirmary. These people were having a heated discussion about Umbridge's injury, and there were even special people who were talking to him. Everyone described the tragic state of Umbridge, and as each wonderful adjective flew out of their mouths, there was laughter all around.

Seeing this, Mag's head hurt even more.

In fact, Slytherin was not the first to discover Umbridge. The other three Houses had discovered Umbridge passed out in the hallway long before them, but none of them chose to report to the professor. Instead, they chose to watch the fun, and some bold people even stepped forward to lift the sack on Umbridge's head, so as to take a closer look at Umbridge's swollen pig head.

That's why these people are now able to describe the scene at that time so carefully.

Afterwards, McGonagall also asked Filch. After all, the latter is a cleaner at Hogwarts. It stands to reason that he is the latest person to discover Umbridge. After all, Filch can't do magic. Cleaning He has to get up every day before dawn and clean all the hallways and walls.

The answer from Filch, however, was quite bizarre, because he actually said that he didn't go to the fourth floor hallway to clean that day, because Mrs. Norris tried so hard to stop him from going to the fourth floor.

McGonagall still believed Filch's words. After all, Hogwarts was Filch's only home. He didn't need to tell such a lie at all, because once the lie was exposed, he would be kicked out of Hogwarts. Be a homeless tramp.

Thinking of this, Mag's lips pursed tightly.

Dumbledore disappeared without a sound, and he did not appoint an interim headmaster before leaving. Now that Hogwarts has no leader, he can only let himself be on top.

But judging from the current situation, this job is not easy!

"Umbridge is awake, she wants to see you!"

Madam Pomfrey came out of the ward and said so to McGonagall.

Hearing this, Mag took a deep breath and followed Pomfrey into the ward.

She had no clue about the whole thing at all, and now she could only see what kind of intelligence Umbridge could provide her.

Umbridge on the hospital bed was extremely miserable. Her face was wrapped in layers of gauze, leaving only her mouth and two eyes exposed. From the irregular bulge above, the flesh under the gauze should still be swollen.

And from her neck down to her ankles, she was covered with a large amount of white plaster, which made Umbridge now look like a beautiful figure from ancient Greece.

"She is coming."

Madam Pomfrey spoke indifferently in Umbridge's ear, and the latter immediately became excited when she heard the words, her eyes kept rolling, and her lips were trembling, as if she wanted to tell someone something .

However, due to the injuries and gauze on her body, the sound she said was just an inaudible murmur to others.

Mag frowned, and he waved at Umbridge with a loud voice.

"Eh... can buy... sugar... greedy..."

Umbridge's vague words echoed in the ward, and Mag and Pomfrey looked at each other, both shocked by the answer.

"Are you talking about Mike Townley?" McGonagall confirmed. "He attacked you?"

Hearing this, Umbridge blinked frantically, and there were even tears in it, looking extremely aggrieved.

"I see!"

With pursed lips, Professor McGonagall strode out of the ward and said to a first-year Ravenclaw student under the curious eyes of countless students outside the door:

"Let Mike come to my office, come now!"

As soon as these words came out, the students who were onlookers exploded. Everyone shouted excitedly and cheered that a hero finally stood up to resist Umbridge!

Professor McGonagall left after giving the order, without any intention of dispersing the crowd.

Harry, who was hiding in the crowd, clenched his fists and said excitedly to Hermione beside him:

"I'll just say it, that person must be Mike last night! Who else can use the Silent Charm and the Wandless Charm so well besides him at Hogwarts?!"

"What are you happy about?" Hermione rolled her eyes, "Now that Professor McGonagall asked Mike to go to the past, he must have found evidence. Mike is not good this time!"

Hearing that, the fiery color on Harry's face quickly cooled down, and he stood there frowning.

Ron next to the two looked at Harry and Hermione with contempt, and said triumphantly:

"I don't know what you're worrying about? Don't you know what kind of person Mike is? Professor McGonagall and Umbridge can't do anything about Max! Let me tell you, we're not here to worry about him. Why don't you hurry up and find someone to join our cram school!"

Hermione and Harry nodded and slowly squeezed out of the crowd, but the worry between the two of them still did not disappear, and it seemed that they did not easily believe what Ron said.
