The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Just as Link and Emily hid in the Room of Response for a private conversation, the opening ceremony of the 'public factory' also entered the final stage of preparation.

This time, the opening ceremony of the factory was set on the corridor that runs through the entire 'factory' after being selected by Cedric.

A huge wooden platform was still placed in the center of the corridor, waiting for the main leaders of the 'factory' to come on stage and hold a ceremony.

Also waiting was the crowd that had already gathered in the audience.

Of course, since the opening ceremony was deliberately arranged to coincide with the first class in the afternoon, many students did not have time to come and participate. As a result, although the crowd in the corridor seemed to be large, it was not yet densely packed. degree.

"John, it's almost time, are you ready?"

Cedric pushed open the door of an office not far from the crowd, and said to John inside.

For today's opening ceremony, John specially conceived a new set of robes, and asked someone to borrow hair oil to comb his hair like an adult.

It's a pity that such clothing and hairstyle bonuses didn't give him much confidence. When Cedric suddenly pushed the door in and asked, John was startled at first, and then said weakly:

"Well, I'm ready, it should be..."

Hearing this, Cedric frowned.

The tension on John's body was already visible to the naked eye.

Cedric can understand John's feelings very well at this moment. He was in the same state when he first became a prefect and went to guide the freshmen.

Therefore, he is also very clear that what John needs most at this moment is not comfort, but someone who can stand up and help him sort out his messy thoughts at the moment.

Cedric closed the door quietly, approached John and pressed John's shoulder and said:

"Have you memorized all the speeches handed over to you?"

John, who was held down by Cedric, felt a little relieved for no reason, nodded at John, then shook his head and said:

"I know by heart, but I'm worried..."

"It doesn't matter if you don't recite it, or if there is an accident at that time. You just need to remember the three core purposes of our opening ceremony." Cedric interrupted with three fingers, " First, publicize the existence of our factory to everyone in Hogwarts. Second, take advantage of this opportunity to start recruiting on the spot. At this point, you must pay attention to the number of people. In order to speed up the progress of the factory transformation, we Many jobs have been promised to Hufflepuff students before. In addition, we must reserve some jobs for mobile use. That is to say, the maximum number of workers you can sign on-site this time cannot exceed 50. It's the limit.

Third, that is the plan for Umbridge. In fact this is the most important thing! The things linked by Link must be completed. This is not only related to whether Hogwarts students can get more opportunities to make money, but also related to Link's key follow-up plans.

Listen, John.

Although the factory this time was founded by the Link Union Student Union. But the student union can only play a supervisory role in essence, so I can't go up to preside over the ceremony for you.

But it's really not that big of a deal.

The so-called speech is just a form. As long as you keep the above three core points in mind, it doesn’t matter whether you follow the manuscript or not, can you understand? "

"I understand the truth," John habitually wanted to scratch his head, but just as he stretched out his hand, he remembered his greasy hair style, so he could only put down his hand and said irritably, "but Umbridge hasn't appeared yet Ah, do you think she will really come?"

"Of course she will come!" Cedric said decisively, "Didn't you notice that many people who were supposed to attend NWET Defense Against the Dark Arts class this afternoon are already waiting outside for the opening ceremony? So many people, always It can't be that they all skipped classes, right? This means that Umbridge has canceled today's class. Since she has already done so, why not come?"

Hearing that John finally relaxed a little, he took a deep breath and said:

"I understand. She deliberately wanted to be present at the finale to show her presence."

"It's good that you understand." Cedric looked up at the clock on the wall, then patted Cedric hard and said, "The time is up, it's your turn to play!"

John nodded firmly, got up and walked out of the office.

Unlike the quiet office, the corridor at the moment is extremely lively.

The students who had been waiting for a long time gathered together and chatted with each other. Their voices might not be loud alone, but together they were as shocking as thunder.

And with the appearance of the two leaders, John and Cedric, there was a deafening cheer from the crowd.

I don't know whether it is to welcome the two, or to celebrate that the long wait is coming to an end.

But no matter what, their sudden cheers were like an invisible sledgehammer, hitting John's heart hard, directly smashing the little bit of confidence he had barely built up with Cedric's help. It was smashed.

He instinctively lowered his head and followed Cedric silently.

And this situation becomes more obvious after getting on the wooden platform.

John's heart was beating violently.

It's just that the high-intensity exercise of the heart didn't seem to be able to input enough oxygen into the blood. John only felt that his chest was extremely tight, and his eyes turned black.

Fortunately, Cedric was by his side.

'If it weren't for Cedric, I would have passed out by now. '

Looking at Cedric's silhouette, John thought so.

But not long after this thought arose, Cedric shrank his pupils as if he had discovered something, and then said to John very fast:

"Umbridge is here, I'll go to meet her, and you continue to preside over the opening ceremony."

After saying that, Cedric directly got off the wooden platform without looking back.

John instinctively stretched out his hand to grab Cedric, but he caught nothing. Looking back, he saw that the crowd in the audience had become more and more tense due to Cedric's sudden departure and his delayed speech. It became noisy.

Uh--

Looking at the hundreds of pairs of eyes with different expressions, John let out a slight strange sound from his throat.

The huge pressure directly overwhelmed him like a tide, and his mind went blank. He couldn't remember the speech script that he had memorized by heart before.

At this moment, in his mind, only the three core purposes that Cedric mentioned to him before are still faintly flashing.

After taking two deep breaths in succession, John finally took out his wand and pressed the tip of the wand to his throat.

"The voice is loud."

With the use of the spell, Link's slightly heavy breathing was directly amplified and reached the ears of everyone present.

Perhaps out of politeness, most people in the audience cooperated in keeping quiet.

And John finally opened his mouth and said:

"I am the person in charge of the 'Hogwarts Link Foley Joint Public Office Factory'. Today, we are opening. After a while, we will be recruiting workers. First recruit 50. Hourly wages, starting from 5 silver Sickles per hour Up to 10 silver coins can be promoted according to the level. Well, that's it."

As the words fell, the corridor that was still whispering was completely quiet.

In this eerie silence, John felt that his heart was sinking, sinking...

He feels like he's screwed everything up.

But this really cannot be blamed on the students present.

John's speech, or the way he spoke, they had never seen in their lives.

Not only are these words dry and without any emotion, but the tone of voice is also very strange, and it is surprisingly short!

However, as Cedric had said to John earlier.

The so-called speech at the opening ceremony is just a formality.

Just as John and Cedric had three core purposes for holding the opening ceremony, these students in the audience can come to watch the opening ceremony during the class time of this weekday, and they also have their own core purposes.

That is to get first-hand intelligence about the factory.

Let's see if the actual situation is as good as the rumors say.

Although John's speech was short and strange, he told all the students in the audience wanted to know.

That's enough.

Another more important point is that the treatment offered by the public factory far exceeded the expectations of all the students present.

Ever since, the eerie silence only lasted for a few moments, followed by screams and cheers like mountains and tsunami.

John, who was overwhelmed by all kinds of praises, was directly confused.

His heart, which had fallen into the bottomless abyss, was instantly thrown into heaven. This huge sense of drop made him feel a little overwhelmed for a moment.

Suddenly, John caught sight of Cedric around the corner.

He had led Umbridge to a step on the side of the platform out of sight of the other students, and was waving at John.

Seeing this, John couldn't understand anything, so he put the tip of his stick against his neck again and said:

"Next, I invite Professor Umbridge, the management professor of the 'Hogwarts Link Foley Joint Public Factory', to speak!"

Cedric had already seen John's embarrassment, and hurriedly led Umbridge onto the platform.

When passing by John, he leaned closer to the other side and encouraged him softly:

"You did a great job!"

Hearing this, John breathed a sigh of relief, and he woke up from his light trance, only to realize that the shirt he was wearing underneath had already been soaked in sweat, and it was actually very cold when the cold wind blew at him.

But at this time John didn't dare to react too much, he could only stand beside Umbridge with Cedric and smirk.

Their performance was all seen by Umbridge.

She first gave John and Cedric a weird smile, and then turned to look at the students in the audience.

"uh-huh!"

A light cough amplified by the "Sound Loud Curse" came from Umbridge's mouth and resounded throughout the corridor.

This made the crowd who were still excited and noisy because of John's speech a little quieter.

Although they didn't like Umbridge very much, it was a matter of personal interest. They were still very curious about what Umbridge would say next, and looked forward to hearing more good news.

Unfortunately, they were doomed to disappointment.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Umbridge said in an awkward girlish voice:

"Good afternoon, dear students, I am very glad to be able to attend the opening ceremony of the factory as the management professor of 'Hogwarts Link Foley Joint Public Factory', and to attend the speech. I am also very happy to watch Seeing that some students can stand up to develop such a factory that benefits students, Hogwarts and even the Ministry of Magic, this kind of behavior is undoubtedly great. I think all of us here must thank the prefects of the student union for their hard work We, too, thank Mr. Link Foley for his efforts. Without them, we..."

Umbridge's speech was still emphatic. At first glance, it sounded gorgeous in rhetoric and far-reaching in meaning, but when you listen carefully, the content is nothing but gold and jade, and there is no substantive content at all.

Worst of all, her speech was too long!

This is in stark contrast to John's previous speech.

After hearing it for a little while, the students in the audience were already getting impatient.

If John hadn't said that there would be recruitment later, and the wages of all the positions in the factory were not low, these people would have dispersed long ago.

Of course, there are also people who just turn around and leave.

These people were not so rich that they didn't care about the next recruitment, but they were very confident that Umbridge's speech would not end even after they returned from a stroll.

And it turns out, they were right.

Just as the atmosphere in the corridor became more and more irritated, John and Cedric, who were hiding behind Umbridge, kept communicating softly.

different from others.

They were interested in what Umbridge said in his speech.

Up to now, most of Umbridge's series of speeches have been praised for Link and the factory.

This is extremely abnormal for a person who was humiliated by Link not long ago.

Judging from what John and Cedric knew about Umbridge, the other party was not a mere person who could calm down when he was on the scene.

And just as they expected, after a long 'warm-up', the main event of Umbridge's trip finally came.

"...It is true that Mr. Link Foley has made so many contributions to Hogwarts, but I still have to say that he still did something wrong in opening the factory this time."

Umbridge said in a deep voice, "First of all, there is the name. Although the name 'Hogwarts Link Foley Joint Office Factory' is not wrong at first glance, it is too complicated and difficult to remember. The most important thing is Ignoring the existence of the Ministry of Magic. You must know that the operation and management rights of production units such as factories belong to the Ministry of Magic.

It was the Ministry of Magic that took into account the actual needs of the students, which allowed the factories in Hogwarts to be lenient and delegated the relevant management power to me, the management professor.

And I think we can't forget this kindness from the Ministry of Magic.

Therefore, the specific name of this factory should be changed to M.O.M.H.L factory. That is, the English abbreviation of Ministry of Magic, Hogwarts and Link.

In addition, on the issue of personnel control and treatment in the factory, further research is needed. Fully eliminate the emergence of corruption and corruption, and strive for greater interests for the students.

I will personally discuss the specific implementation with Mr. Link Foley after the ceremony to ensure fairness and justice! "
