Hiding in Hogwarts as a professor

“I shouldn’t be late, right?” A gentle female voice sounded in Tver’s ear.

Tver turned around and looked around. Different from her previous smart attire, Cynthia rarely let her hair down smoothly today and wore a dark blue dress.

In other words, there is elegant blue hidden in black.

“How’s it going?” She showed it expectantly.

“It’s very beautiful and suits you very well.” Tver didn’t even need to look at her to know that many students around her were amazed by her.

“Warriors please come here!”

At eight o’clock, Professor McGonagall’s voice sounded on time.

At this time, the door of the auditorium was opened unconsciously, welcoming the students.

Cynthia quickly held Tver’s hand, and like several other warriors, followed the crowd that got out of the way and walked towards Professor McGonagall.

Tver also met the dance partners of other warriors.

Harry’s dance partner was the sister of the Patil sisters, Parvati Patil. To be honest, if the two sisters hadn’t been assigned to different colleges, Tver wouldn’t have been able to tell them apart just by looking at their appearance.

Cedric brought the Chinese girl Qiu Zhang, but Viktor unexpectedly found a Beauxbatons girl.

Tver’s strange eyes searched the crowd.

etc–

Who is holding Lotus on his arm? !

Hermione Granger? !

Professor McGonagall sighed helplessly, who made her agree to the two becoming dance partners.

Also realizing this, the crowd let out bursts of exclamations.

I don’t know if it was because the two girls were walking arm in arm together, or because Hermione was particularly dazzling tonight.

After taking care of it, her messy hair became extremely smooth, and she put on a flowing light purple-blue robe with a shy but high-spirited smile on her face, which made her look completely different from usual.

Fleur next to her was also dressed up carefully, and specially chose a masculine black dress, which looked like a perfect match for Hermione.

This pair stunned everyone’s attention as soon as they appeared on the stage.

Especially students like Ron and Harry who were familiar with Hermione were so shocked that they forgot to close their mouths.

It wasn’t until Professor McGonagall shouted several times that they were allowed to enter the auditorium in an orderly manner.

“No, why did you… become dance partners?”

Seeing Tweel’s strange look, Fleur and Hermione suddenly showed mischievous smiles, and they smiled at each other before explaining.

“The main reason is that I don’t know who to choose as my dance partner. I originally wanted to find you or Cedric, but your Professor McGonagall said that warriors cannot be with warriors.”

“Later, I heard that Hermione didn’t have a dance partner yet, so I took the opportunity to invite her.” Fleur’s face was filled with a smile, and she was very satisfied with everyone’s surprised expressions on the two of them.

“McGonagall would actually agree to this?” Harry came over in surprise.

“I’m just older, that doesn’t mean my thinking is old.” Professor McGonagall came back at some point and said to Harry quietly behind his back.

After making Harry look embarrassed and leading Parvati back to the team angrily, she looked at the ten people here.

“The warrior’s seat is at the guest seat at the end, so you have to go through the auditorium, understand? Don’t stupidly walk to your friends!”

She glared at Harry one last time before letting them join their dance partners and file in in a long line.

In order to take care of the smallest Harry, Professor McGonagall thoughtfully arranged the warriors in order from short to tall according to their height.

Therefore, Tver walked at the back with Cynthia and relaxedly watched Harry at the front being stared at by everyone in the auditorium, causing him to only show a stiff smile.

At this time, the auditorium was rearranged. The walls were covered with glittering silver frost, the ceiling was replaced by a starry night sky, and hundreds of garlands of mistletoe sprigs and ivy were hung. .

To cater for the mix of people from different houses, the long desks were removed and replaced by many round tables lit with lanterns.

Fortunately, the guest seat was located in the middle and rear of the auditorium, so Harry would not be embarrassed for too long.

Dumbledore and the other two principals have been waiting here for a long time.

But Tver noticed Percy next to Karkaroff.

Yes, it was Percy. He was wearing a brand new navy blue dress robe, looking at Penello not far away with a smile.

But, how could he appear here?

Seemingly seeing Tver’s doubts, Cynthia immediately explained to him in a low voice.

“The teacher is missing now. Barty Crouch originally planned to come here in person, but Fudge caused trouble again, so he had to temporarily let Percy take his place.”

Tver knows the location

nod.

In the past six months, their side has exerted increasing pressure on Fudge, and they are almost isolating him.

If it weren’t for the fact that there was no conclusive evidence, people would probably have started impeaching Fudge.

But it is precisely because of this that he, who is essentially a minister, still has a lot of power to cause trouble for Barty, who is the first to bear the brunt.

Although these troubles are not intractable, they are not easy to get rid of.

After all, even Fudge, who is now somewhat unscrupulous, still has some brains.

Thinking of this, Tver took Cynthia to sit next to Percy and also diverted his attention back.

“Professor, nice to see you again.”

After not seeing each other for half a year, Percy nodded calmly. He was completely different from the one who yelled in the office four years ago.

If Tver hadn’t been corresponding with him, he would have thought that he had accepted a fake student.

“How’s it going? Is the Ministry busy with business?”

Twil asked an ordinary question, but Percy immediately heard something different.

“There are indeed a lot of things to be busy with. There was one just yesterday. Ms. Umbridge, the senior deputy minister, advocated raising taxes on businessmen, which aroused the opposition of many wizards.”

“Especially those international businessmen have said that if taxes are raised, they will no longer be able to do business in the UK.”

“Raise taxes? Why raise taxes? Is the Ministry of Magic short of money?” Tver asked in surprise.

“That’s not true,” Percy’s voice lowered, “Umbridge or Fudge has received a report that supplies have become cheaper.”

“We fiddled with the report so they didn’t become suspicious.”

“However, the two of them believe that wizard merchants’ profits have increased, so they should pay more taxes.”

“…”

Tver didn’t know what to say.

As businessmen’s profits increase, it is normal to increase taxes appropriately.

But that won’t be so fast!

At least until the wizarding world has adapted to the influx of Muggle supplies and most wizards have benefited from it, then is the time to increase taxes!

As a result, these two people are now clamoring for tax increases, as if they don’t think they are annoying enough. They are completely the underdogs of the Ministry of Magic.

The derogatory kind!
