Chapter 314 Hermione's New Changes

( ) Although Umbridge didn't want to mention Hermione's name at all, in the classroom, it is a "right" for students to ask questions. Even if she wanted to ignore it, it had to be within a limit.

Look at Hermione's swearing not to give up when she is not allowed to ask questions, Umbridge has already prepared her own set of arguments. In her opinion, that ignorant girl with a stubborn face must be trying to fight her.

Because the girl's eyes were exactly the same as that of a stubborn boss in the Ministry of Magic.

However……

"... Personally, I think it's pretty darn good!"

Neither the students around nor Umbridge sitting behind the desk could guess what Hermione said.

"Um...really?" Umbridge still had that sweet and disgusting smile on his face, but he felt uncomfortable in his heart, "My dear, since you think so, then it's best— — Sit down and read on!"

But Hermione didn't have the slightest intention to sit down, she was still standing upright behind the desk, her eyes were firm and bright.

"Of course, I really enjoy reading it, but—" She paused intentionally to draw everyone's attention, and then continued, "Actually, I would like to hear more about your Some understanding of this book, .Ls exam to get better grades."

Undoubtedly, with a variety of students and teachers of all kinds, the classrooms formed will be varied. In the final analysis, the immediate goal of students going to school is to get grades in the exams.

No matter what Umbridge planned to do at Hogwarts, she came in as a "professor", so she had to respond to Hermione's words.

Because of what Hermione said, not only was there nothing wrong with it, but it also showed her admiration for the teaching materials very blatantly.

"Oh, of course, my dear..." Umbridge suppressed the inexplicable irritability in her heart, and she smiled all over her face, "What's your name?"

"Hermione Granger, Professor," Hermione replied quickly.

"Very well, from your words, I clearly feel your love for this book," Umbridge nodded, "Of course I will give you a specific explanation, but it must be before you read it." Later—Miss Granger, I hope you'll finish the first chapter first, okay?"

"Professor, actually..." Hermione lowered her eyes pretentiously, then raised her head and said, "Because this book is so wonderful,

I didn't hold back last night, and spent most of the night memorizing it..."

"cough cough"

Harry, who was sitting by the side completely confused, choked on his own saliva inadvertently after hearing this sentence.

"Wh-um-really?" Umbridge's smirk froze inconspicuously, "Then you can recite-"

"Chapter 1, the basic principles of entry. As we all know, Magic Defense is a discipline that protects young wizards from inappropriate spells. Based on its essence, we should proceed from legal and reasonable premise to protect ourselves from..."

Hermione recited it very smoothly, without even a single stumble, but to be honest, although Umbridge read the whole book, she really didn't have the ability to memorize it without missing a single time.

But asking her to open the book and compare it, even if she is really thick-skinned, is just futile.

Because even if Hermione made a mistake, she can only be rewarded but not punished. After all, as long as Hermione starts to recite, she is correct and a "good student" who loves to learn.

"Well, that's fine, very good..." Hermione didn't carry her back for a long time before she was interrupted by Umbridge, who was in a dilemma, "Although there are some omissions, it can be forgiven, but you can't just study By rote memorization, understanding the author's intentions as you read..."

This time Umbridge spoke very fast, apparently to prevent Hermione from interrupting. Because her first two sentences were just an excuse for her to regain control of the situation. If Hermione pointed it out, then she would lose more than she gained.

However, Hermione didn't pick and choose Umbridge's two words to save face. She just stood on the seat and waited quietly for Umbridge's long-winded speech to come to an end.

A few minutes later, when Umbridge once again warned everyone to read the textbook carefully and not just look at the surface, Hermione spoke again.

"Yes, Professor Umbridge is very good! We should have a deeper understanding of the theory of the author of this book, Mr. Wilbert Slinka," she nodded very seriously, and then continued, "About On this point, I read an important point of Mr. Sculling in the book—”

"Mr Sculling stated that the use of offensive defensive magic of any kind should not be encouraged."

"Yes, my class will teach you how to learn magic defense in a legal, safe and risk-free premise, and use it to protect yourself." Umbridge raised his eyebrows and said, "Miss Granger , do you have any doubts about this?"

"For this point of view, I agree very much! Because it will neither hurt others nor hurt yourself...but..."

Having said that, Hermione rubbed the thumb and index finger of her right hand subconsciously, which was to relieve some emotions in her heart.

"However, Mr. McLean, our ancient rune professor, did not abide by this point of view—"

Her speech rate also suddenly accelerated.

"At the personal audio-visual meeting during the summer vacation, Professor McLean used a very aggressive magic to drive away Voldemort, and he even won the second class of the Order of Merlin!"

"Professor Umbridge, I think Professor McLean's behavior is disrespectful to Mr. Slinka and you, and also irresponsible to himself—his Merlin Medal is problematic!"

After the welcome dinner, Umbridge had someone send over information about Maca overnight. However, for the person "Maka Maclean", she can only say that she has no way of doing it.

Maca's resume is obviously very jumping, from positive to negative, there are many records, but no matter which one is "big", people dare not intervene at will.

Especially recently, since Maca's "spy" identity was revealed, the biggest negative cases have been completely turned back to the positive.

Even if she, Umbridge, wanted to "hands and feet" in it, it would not be done in a short while-the people and things involved were too deep.

Right now, Hermione is putting on an image of "Umbridge's supporter" on her body, but throws the most fundamental point of view in "Defense of Magic Theory", the textbook designated by Umbridge, to Mary on the head of the card.

Umbridge couldn't help but twitch his eyes.

The Order of Merlin is awarded by the International Federation of Wizards, can she say "no"?

Even if she wanted to start from this point, she had to prepare sufficient evidence secretly. If she dared to spout baseless nonsense in public, she might be invited to tea at the Wizengamot some day.

So Hermione can say these things, but she can't-who made her not only a professor, but also a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic?

"Well... I'm about to report this to the Ministry of Magic..." Umbridge was really choked by her, but at this moment he could only hold back his anger, "Miss Granger, please sit down." Come down!"

Umbridge has "struggled" in the Ministry of Magic for so many years, relying on various improper means to climb to the top. But even so, being able to climb so high in the Ministry of Magic shows that her superficial skills are quite brilliant.

At least, under Hermione's offensive, she still didn't become angry from embarrassment, but the smirk on her face was already intense to the extreme.

But this time it was Hermione's turn to ignore her will.

"Thank you, but..." Hermione said with feigned regret, "Since the International Federation of Wizards has awarded Professor McLean the Medal of Merlin, we can still continue with the book "The Theory of Defense Against Magic", which is contrary to the meaning of the Federation's award." study?"

"Of course!" Umbridge took a deep breath, "The International Federation honored Mr. McLean in recognition of his achievements and contributions. As for whether his behavior is appropriate, this requires further review and discussion. gone."

She said kindly in a sweetly sweet tone: "So, as I said just now, I am ready to report this matter to the Ministry of Magic—please sit down, Miss Granger!"

"Hermione sat down, she finally sat down!" - this was a thought that flashed through everyone's minds at the same time.

During the rest of the class, Umbridge didn't say another word, and the students also kept their mouths firmly shut.

Not for anything else, just because of Hermione's words just now, they feel that what they say now is superfluous.

People are almost denying this textbook. Could it be possible that I can do better?

In the situation where most of the students don't like Umbridge, there are only a few who can stand up and say a few more words. Not everyone can go against the professor.

But from another point of view, since Hermione can stab the old woman with a soft knife, wouldn't it be great?

As soon as the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Umbridge immediately walked out of the classroom with his book in his arms, without even turning his head.

"Hermione, what happened to you just now? Isn't that like you?"

Both Harry and Ron looked surprised, but Hermione smiled.

"Yeah, I know that too..." She shrugged, "Actually, I just wanted to argue about the content of this book at first, but Umbridge kept ignoring my raised hand and let I had more time to think about..."

"...Then I suddenly recalled the behavior of Maca and Dumbledore yesterday. I think that was telling us something—"
