Chapter 484 Yes, I Want to Report Principal Dumbledore!
Dumbledore was also looking at Malfoy, his brows raised slightly, knowing in his heart that if Lupin's identity as a werewolf was exposed, the Ministry of Magic would definitely use this matter to attack him.
In full view of the public, Malfoy seemed a little triumphant, enjoying the feeling of being noticed.
However, after noticing the lonely look on Lupine's face, Malfoy still hesitated.
"Mr. Malfoy! If you have something to say, you'd better hurry up. We don't have so much time to waste." Umbridge waited for a while and did not wait for Malfoy to speak, so she had to urge her.
"I want to report it," Malfoy said in a loud voice. His eyes stayed on Lupine for a while, then turned to look at Ivan, and finally said.
"I want to report Principal Dumbledore!"
When Malfoy finished speaking, everyone in the audience was stunned.
Harry, Ron, Lupine, and Snape all looked at him in shock. They didn't expect Malfoy to target Dumbledore. Did he want to accuse him of recruiting a werewolf to teach at Hogwarts?
Dumbledore looked thoughtfully at Malfoy with interest.
Umbridge was so excited that she asked quickly.
"Mr. Malfoy, you want to report the headmaster of Hogwarts, what is the reason? What is the reason? Embezzling the teaching funds provided by the school director and the Ministry of Magic? Or you have done something very outrageous."
Umbridge looked at Malfoy with great anticipation, even gave some examples, and said that the Ministry of Magic admired his spirit of not fearing power the most, and would definitely deal with it impartially!
However, Malfoy's next words made Umbridge smile stuck on her face.
“I want to report that as the principal, he treats students from major colleges differently.
As far as I know, Hogwarts has never had a record of adding 300 points at once. He is clearly favoring Gryffindor House! Otherwise, this year’s Academy Cup should belong to us, Slytherin! "
Malfoy's words were filled with deep resentment. Originally, their Slytherin house had won the House Cup for many years due to its strength, but since Ivan entered this school, the House Cup every year has become Gryffindor's.
"Is this what you want to say?" Umbridge asked word by word with her eyes widened.
"Of course, what else do you think?" Malfoy said casually.
"You misunderstood me, Mr. Malfoy!" Before Umbridge could reply, Dumbledore stepped forward. He looked at Malfoy and replied solemnly.
"I think it is necessary to explain here. I give Mr. Hals an unprecedented three hundred points. It is not just that he successfully captured Peter Pettigrew and made Mr. Black, the hero who resisted the Death Eaters, avenged.
It was also because I received a letter from the Knights of Merlin at that time, confirming that Mr. Hals was about to receive the Order of Merlin, First Class, so I counted the two things together."
Having said this, Dumbledore's eyes turned to Ivan.
Ivan nodded quickly, yes, that's what he thought at the time!
Lupine, who was watching, was relieved. He glanced at Malfoy gratefully. Although he didn't know why Malfoy changed his mind temporarily, the other party did choose to let him go.
Snape's face turned black. His lips trembled slightly, but he made no sound.
The most angry person was Umbridge. She didn't come here just to hear trivial things like Dumbledore favoring Gryffindor House.
"Malfoy, I remember when Mr. Crabbe brought me here, he said you had something important to report to me!"
Umbridge deliberately emphasized the word "significant" and then said it even more threateningly. "You should understand that fooling the Ministry is no fun!"
"Whatever you think, that's all I have to say. At worst, you can tell my dad!" Malfoy curled his lips, not caring about Umbridge's threat.
"Ms. Umbridge! Please be more tolerant when treating a child." Dumbledore said in a helpful voice.
"Malfoy dared to point out some of my mistakes. Although there were some misunderstandings, this attitude deserves recognition! I am willing to apologize for my negligence and promise to treat all colleges more fairly in the future!"
Dumbledore said apologetically and took the lead in applauding. His eyes swept over several professors, and the professors immediately understood and applauded together.
Also doing the same was Ivan who understood Dumbledore's thoughts.
Harry and Ron were a little unhappy at first, until Hermione whispered to them that Malfoy still had Professor Lupin's handle in his hand, and they reluctantly clapped their hands a few times.
The classroom suddenly burst into enthusiastic applause.
Malfoy was confused when faced with this situation, his cheeks turned red and he was a little at a loss.
This was the first time that he was praised by Dumbledore in public, let alone his sworn enemies applauding him, which made Malfoy feel very uncomfortable.
Umbridge stared hard at Dumbledore. She was sure there must be something fishy about it. She even suspected that Dumbledore had tampered with Malfoy under her eyes, which forced Malfoy to change his story!
Thinking of this, Umbridge turned to look at Goyle and Crabbe and questioned them.
"Two gentlemen, what about you? Is there anything you want to tell me?"
Goyle and Crabbe shook their heads hesitantly.
In fact, they were confused now. Malfoy had told them before that he wanted to expose Lupine as a werewolf wizard, but who knew why in a blink of an eye he had turned into accusing Dumbledore of being unfair to the major colleges.
However, as a qualified follower, no matter how bright your mind is, one thing is still very clear, and that is not to violate the followers' wishes.
"Very well, very well! Let's go!" Umbridge glanced around the classroom and turned away angrily with the Aurors.
There was nothing she could do against Dumbledore, let alone force the only son of the Malfoy family to speak. She would only bring humiliation to herself by staying here any longer.
Malfoy didn't stay long. He always felt a little uncomfortable staying in this classroom, but before leaving, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Ivan, opened and closed his mouth, and spoke in spoken language.
[The favor I owed last time is now settled! 】
Regardless of whether Ivan figured it out or not, Malfoy walked over the door and left. Goyle and Crabbe hurriedly followed.
Ivan shook his head dumbfounded. Of course he could understand Malfoy's spoken words, but he didn't know whether this awkward little devil wanted to find a way out, or was really struggling with repaying the favor.
