My Understanding Is Incredible, I Built A Floating City In Hogwarts
Chapter 582 Cat And Mouse Game
The only thing Harry can do now is to double down on D.A. activities.
In his mind, the secret organization they formed was not only a bastion against evil forces such as Umbridge, but also a source of confidence and hope for him.
Whenever Harry stepped into the Room of Requirement and participated in the D.A.'s special training activities, he felt like he was in another world, and all the worries of Hogwarts were swept away.
Although he was exhausted from several hours of hard practice, the inner joy and satisfaction made him feel that everything was worth it.
Whenever he looks around and sees the D.A. members making continuous progress, a sense of pride arises in his heart.
In one-on-one duel practice, although some members cannot fully master advanced defensive spells such as [Iron Armor Curse], basic attack spells such as [Disarm Curse], [Stun Curse], [Confinement Curse], etc. Even a novice like Neville is already comfortable using it.
Harry often imagines a scene like this:
What will happen to Umbridge's mean face when all D.A. members achieve "Excellent" in Defense Against the Dark Arts in their O.W.Ls?
He could almost predict her look of surprise and unwillingness, which was undoubtedly the biggest irony and blow to her.
In addition to the heavy academic load and Slytherin's provocation, there was another person who made Harry feel upset - the administrator Argus Filch. This bad old man is very bad. He keeps a straight face all day long, as if the whole world owes him.
Recently, Harry could feel Filch's malicious gaze every day, as if he was secretly observing him every day, waiting for him to make some mistake.
"It's really unlucky to have such an administrator." Harry complained in his mind.
He knew that Filch was loyal to Umbridge, and now that Umbridge was sparing no effort to win over him, he was likely to become their top ten threats.
After all, Filch was second only to the Weasley twins in his familiarity with the school's secret passages and hiding places.
Harry had to be more cautious, fearing that Filch would discover his secret.
Fortunately, he had the treasure of invisibility cloak, otherwise he was really worried that Filch would catch him when he went to participate in D.A. activities.
Meanwhile, in Umbridge's office, she was worrying about the same thing.
She recently discovered that Hogwarts students often disappeared in droves, especially Gryffindors.
From this point of view, there is actually a related organization behind the "Anti-Toad Association".
She sent Filch to follow him, but failed every time.
She had no idea where these students had gone or what they were doing, but they were able to come back on time before curfew.
The investigation team established by Umbridge seemed to have deliberately let loose on this matter and turned a blind eye to Harry's whereabouts. This made her even more convinced that Dumbledore and Harry Potter must be brewing some conspiracy behind the scenes.
The investigation team obviously cannot be trusted in this matter.
Umbridge sat at his desk, frowning and thinking a lot.
"Levin Green's influence in the circle of outstanding students is too deep. The Polytechnic Society includes almost all the best students in the college."
She murmured to herself, "If you want to recruit a group of elites, you can't go around the people of the Erudite Society. Although Levin seems to be indifferent to these people, the members of the society will still be subtly influenced by him, and they will habitually Doing things based on his personal preferences, if he wants to let Harry and the others go, I won't be able to catch them at all, which is not a good thing for Minister Fudge."
She rubbed her sore eyebrows, feeling an inexplicable anxiety in her heart. She begins to wonder if she should switch to Levin and Gianna?
Umbridge seems to be overthinking.
She didn't even think about it, with her appearance and reputation, who else would want her besides Fudge.
But no matter what, she still had to do her best to complete the tasks assigned by Fudge.
So, she decided to change her strategy.
Since we can't catch Harry and the others through conventional means, let's just give it a try and find an opportunity to give them a big one.
She believes that as long as she waits patiently, she will always find a breakthrough.
Sure enough, within a few days, an excellent opportunity came to her.
That day, Filch was busy nailing new injunctions to the wall.
The wall was almost covered with nails, and there was a dazzling array of prohibitions.
"I've told Dumbledore a lot."
Filch muttered as he nailed the ban,
"He's too kind to you. If you only knew I had the power to beat you to pieces with a whip, you despicable little beasts would never throw stink bombs again. If only I could hang you by your ankles and hang you upside down. No one in my office is going to throw a Wolf Fang Saucer in the hallway anymore."
"Just wait, I will have the power to do that soon... As long as I catch those little troublemakers... Professor Umbridge also asked the minister to sign an order to expel Peeves... ...Haha, when she takes power, this place will have to be reorganized..."
He chuckled unpleasantly, completely unaware of the mocking winks from the Weasley twins below.
After completing his inspection of the castle, Filch returned to his "observation post" below the mural of the troll beating Barnabas silly on the fourth floor as usual.

This location was carefully chosen by him because here he witnessed the mysterious disappearance of young masters many times.
He made up his mind to get a result today.
However, not long after he sat down, Filch found an extremely tempting box of heart-shaped chocolates lying quietly on his seat. He picked up the chocolate with confusion and looked at the label on it - it was indeed a gift from Professor Umbridge.
Filch's heart instantly felt warm. Could it be that Professor Umbridge finally noticed his hard work and decided to reward him in this way?
With trembling hands, he was about to put the chocolate into his mouth, but suddenly he felt a burning pain on his face.
He subconsciously threw away the chocolate and covered his cheeks with both hands. An unbearable pain came from deep in his skin, as if something was growing crazily under his face.
Filch was horrified to find a mirror, and saw that his face was covered with yellow oval-shaped herpes at some point, and those herpes continued to grow and swell until the yellow pus broke through the surface of the herpes, like A series of disgusting water arrows were sprayed out.
Filch's face had changed beyond recognition, and he could hardly believe that the monster in the mirror was himself.
0…Please give me flowers…
Overwhelmed with anger and fear, he stumbled out of the room and headed straight for Umbridge's office.
"Professor! Professor!"
Filch opened the door to Umbridge's office with a bang. Pus was still spurting out from his face, looking very scary.
"Someone poisoned me! It must have been those little wizards! You have to make the decision for me!"
Umbridge was working on documents, and was startled by Filch's sudden intrusion and the herpes covering his face.
She looked at Filch in shock, and was speechless for a moment.
"Professor! You must severely punish those perpetrators!" Filch's voice trembled with anger. He waved his arms, but accidentally caused the sores on his face to burst, and yellow pus splashed out like a disgusting waterfall. came out and splashed directly on Umbridge's face.
Umbridge felt a strong sense of nausea welling up in her heart. Her face instantly turned pale, her eyes filled with disgust and anger, as if she had swallowed a fly.
But she was not angry. She knew very well that the top priority was to appease the other person. After all, Filch was one of the few people in Hogwarts that she could win over for her own use.

So, she endured the discomfort and tried to make her voice sound softer: "Filch, calm down first. What is going on?"
Soon, she understood the whole story from the other party's chatter.
After calming Filch's excitement, Umbridge asked him to go to the school hospital for treatment first.
Snape walked into her office with a cold face, a hint of displeasure in his eyes.
However, Umbridge couldn't care less. She couldn't wait to tell him about Filch: "Professor, do you think this can help us track down the perpetrator? We must find the student who pranked us!"
After hearing this, Snape frowned and pondered for a while before slowly speaking: "This sounds like a prank potion. I can try to analyze the pus. However, anyone can make the potion. I think It may be quite difficult to find the real culprit through this method."
Umbridge's heart suddenly sank, and his disappointment was palpable.
However, at this moment, Snape suddenly changed the topic: "Actually, in this case, I don't need any analysis to guess who is responsible."
"Who is it?" Umbridge's eyes immediately lit up and he asked eagerly.
Snape's lips curved into a sneer: "Who else could it be besides the Weasley twins?"
He didn't notice that when Umbridge heard the name, a hint of imperceptible joy flashed in his eyes.
Umbridge nodded, secretly happy in his heart. She realized that this was the opportunity she had been waiting for!
Umbridge immediately purchased a batch of potions from Snape in the name of the Ministry of Magic.
Soon, a new announcement appeared on the school's bulletin wall, requiring all students to be interrogated on suspicion of illegal behavior.
Umbridge brought the students to his office one by one for questioning based on the list provided by the investigative action team and Filch.
Her attitude was very kind, and she poured a cup of steaming tea for each student with a smile on her face. Of course, whether students want to drink the cup of tea or not, Umbridge has a way to make them drink it.
Soon, she found the person she had been looking for for a long time. .
