Study Days at Hogwarts

"Peeves is really a genius."

Fred hummed a light tune happily, sat down next to George, picked up his fork and put a few boiled potatoes on the plate for dinner.

"You think Peeves knows how to make up songs?"

Lee Jordan reached over and helped Fred move the pepper shaker.

"Isn't it?" Fred asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, of course."

Lee Jordan was quite speechless, could he say that he wasn't?

Peeves sings "The Toad's Song", which is obviously a tune specially composed by Albert to disgust Umbridge. This tune is simple and has a brisk tone. Everyone can hum a few lines. The tune of "The Song of the Toad" can be heard everywhere, and it probably makes Umbridge quite sick.

"That guy disappeared again?" George suddenly asked.

"Probably went on a date again." Fred was not surprised that Albert was habitually missing.

"Today is not Friday..." George reminded.

"I'll probably be back in the evening." Lee Jordan turned to look at Fred: "By the way, how are you and Angelina doing?"

"What else." Fred said speechlessly, "We spend most of our time together."

"I gave up on my own initiative and gave you the opportunity." Lee Jordan muttered dissatisfied, "What a useless guy."

"I remember that you gave Albert a copy of "Twelve Tips for Convincing Witches" before." George opened today's newspaper and joked with a smile, "Now you should learn from Albert. "

"Angelina's mind is filled with Quidditch." Fred was helpless. It wasn't for his efforts, but Quidditch was his strong opponent.

"It's so shameless." George, who had just read the front page headline, couldn't help but say.

"How shameless am I?" Fred turned his head dissatisfied and found George reading the newspaper.

"I'm not talking about you."

George read the headlines in the Daily Prophet carefully, mumbling something.

Fred and Lee Jordan both looked up curiously and discovered that the headline of today's "Daily Prophet" was actually a report about Umbridge.

The newspapers were full of reports on Toad's experiences during his tenure at Hogwarts, and several anonymous Slytherin students were even interviewed. However, the Daily Prophet reported on Umbridge's series of atrocities at Hogwarts. Not a word was mentioned.

The entire report came close to directly stating that Dumbledore instigated these thugs to try to prevent the Ministry of Magic from implementing the education order.

"The Daily Prophet has now become the scumbag of the Ministry of Magic." Lee Jordan said angrily: "If it doesn't even report the truth, what's the point of the newspaper's existence?"

"This is called knowing current affairs." George shrugged and said, "I wouldn't be surprised even if the Daily Prophet turns to the mysterious man."

All three of them understood this, but the content in the newspaper was still irritating.

"Maybe, we can give everyone a little surprise." Fred suggested.

"It's a good idea. Anyway, we have enough funds. Let's test our new gadgets by the way." George agreed. In a few days, they can go to Hogsmeade Village, and they will meet Mr. Thief.

"By the way, where did that guy ask us to meet?" Lee Jordan asked.

"He didn't say."

The surroundings suddenly fell into dead silence.

"We'll meet eventually. That guy might be more diligent than us." George muttered.

"Has any of you seen Albert?" Cedric appeared out of nowhere.

"I don't know, that guy disappeared again." George put down the newspaper, raised his head and asked, "What do you want from Albert? I can help you tell it."

"I was wondering if I could buy a Self-Defense Guide from Albert." Diggory said after looking around to make sure no one was eavesdropping.

"I guess there's no chance, and neither do we." Fred shrugged.

"When is your birthday, you can give Albert a little hint. He will definitely not mind sending you a copy." George suggested.

"I just celebrated my birthday." Digory was a little depressed. His birthday was at the end of September.

"I'll ask you when the time comes. Otherwise, you can also borrow it from the champion. I remember her name." George thought for a long time, but couldn't remember the young champion's name.

"Ola Quirk." Li Jordan looked at the two of them speechlessly: "It has only been a few days and you have forgotten her."

"I'm not familiar with him. I didn't expect you to remember it." The Weasley twins looked at Lee Jordan with surprised eyes.

"This is not nonsense. Every champion will be recorded on the champion list. Her name is what I wrote on it." Li Jordan couldn't help but sigh. These two guys didn't care about the wizard card at all. Albert Likewise, it seems he can only rely on himself.

"By the way, Cedric, how did you catch Qiu Zhang?" Fred asked in a low voice.

"What?" Cedric looked at Fred with a surprised look on his face for a while, then lowered his voice and said, "You can first ask her to go to the teahouse in Hogsmeade alone, and then find an opportunity to open up your relationship with her. , generally as long as she doesn’t refuse to date you alone, she won’t refuse you.”

"that's all?"

"That's it!" Cedric was a little surprised, "I thought you had already got Angelina."

"how do you know."

"Qiu Zhang told me that there were many couples born at last year's Christmas ball." Cedric explained.

"You have to work harder." George sighed, "You can go to Hogsmeade soon."

"Remember to ask for me." Cedric lowered his voice and said, "The matter of the "Self-Defense Guide" has been spread in the school. Sooner or later, Umbridge will focus on the "Self-Defense Guide." It's best to find a way. , so that guy can’t get the book.”

"It's easy, I'll tell Orla Quirk." Lee Jordan said with a smile, "I guarantee there's nothing the toad can do."

"What are you going to do?" Fred asked, putting down his fork.

"Ask her to throw the book on the table and let someone borrow it. Then she won't know who borrowed the book." Li Qiaodan said: "Even if the book is really lost, how can Albert be sure? Also, just give me another copy."

All three of them knew that the "Self-Defense Guide" was sold very cheaply, only two galleons, the same price as most textbooks.

Since the truth about Umbridge not allowing everyone to practice Defense Against the Dark Arts was made public, more and more senior students in advanced classes have chosen to temporarily abandon the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Those so-called theories are really useless at all, read aloud Books have become a joke.

Most students believed that Umbridge had no idea what Defense Against the Dark Arts was except for having a ridiculous title.

On the contrary, it was the "Guide to Self-Defense" that Albert took out to reward the wizard card champion, and it became a book sought after by students at Hogwarts.

Although most students have never read this book, they are all asking where to buy it, thinking that they can learn useful knowledge about black magic defense from this book, because everyone has read the "Self-Defense Guide" Students admire it very much.

Even Umbridge had received the news. What annoyed her most was that although she knew that Albert Anderson had written a book on defense against the dark arts called "The Self-Defense Guide", which was sought after by countless students, no one Know where to buy this book.

Because this book has not been officially published yet, let alone sold to the outside world.

Umbridge tried to take the "Guide to Self-Defense" from the new champion of the Wizarding Card, Miss Ola Quirk, and cut off the spread of the "Guide to Self-Defense" in the school. However, she was told that the book had been Not where she is.

"Miss Ora Quirk, can you tell me where the Self-Defense Guide is!" Umbridge still maintained a fake smile on her face.

"I don't know. Everyone is saying that you might have taken the book, and suggested that I lend the book out to avoid being..." Quirk looked at Umbridge with some fear, lowered his head and finished the sentence. : "Lest you take it away."

"So, you lent that book?" Umbridge's expression turned ugly. "Tell me, who did you lend that book to?"

"I don't know. They asked me to leave the book in the library and said they would return it to me during the holiday." Orla Quirk whispered, "Many people are here to testify for me."

Umbridge's face turned darker. This was definitely the Hogwarts students deliberately targeting her.

I can't cause trouble with Albert yet, because this does not violate the laws of the Ministry of Magic, otherwise all the writers in the British wizarding world will be imprisoned.

The emergence of "Self-Defense Guide" has made Umbridge's waste even more obvious. More and more students believe that Umbridge and "Magic Defense Theory" should stay in the trash can.
