Chapter 480 The only Person to Take the Blame, Like Mother, Like Daughter (1/2)

Chapter 480 The only person to take the blame, like mother, like daughter

The members of the D.A. looked at the Room of Requirement reluctantly and left one by one.

Aaron had no intention of leaving. He found a seat and sat down, and then focused on the task board.

[Be a diligent and responsible prefect (from now until the end of this semester);

1200 magic points will be rewarded for completing the task, no penalty for failing the task, accepted]

[Teach students who are willing to learn Defense Against the Dark Arts (required to fulfill the teacher's responsibilities); 500 magic points will be rewarded for completing the task; completed]

Seeing the second task completed, he suddenly had an urge to cry.

After nearly half a year of hard work, it was finally time to reap the rewards. Although the effort was not proportional to the labor, it was a great comfort.

"Receive it."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 500 magic points. Now there are 730 magic points in total, which is just enough for a wave of consumption." The system said in a flattering manner, "Wu Huan Naraku only has 600 magic points, right?"

"Tsk!" Aaron smacked his lips and said with disdain: "Can you have some shame?"

"The system needs to be upgraded too!

Preliminary estimates show that the host needs to consume at least 12,000 magic points to barely meet the upgrade conditions."

"12,000." Aaron took a breath of cold air, "You are really bold, but you don't have to think about it within three years.

Before Voldemort dies, I will add most of the magic points to magic power. The software has been improved, and the hardware must keep up!

So, all 730 magic points are added to magic power."

System:......

Feeling the increase in magic energy, Aaron's mouth corners slightly raised, and his sense of security was successfully increased by one.

Creaky!

More than ten minutes later, the door of the Room of Requirement suddenly opened.

Just when Aaron thought Umbridge was coming, Harry and the other two hurried in.

"Hou Lixie! What are you three doing back?"

"I was wondering who I left behind." Hermione rolled her eyes at him, "You have to go with us, you can't stay here."

"I'm afraid that won't work. Since Marietta has decided to tell on us, she will definitely sell us out.

Umbridge knows the location, got the list, and prepared the arrest team. If she gets nothing, she will never give up."

"So you plan to stay here by yourself?" Harry asked.

"It's obvious." Aaron said anxiously and helplessly, "Who made me a teacher? In other words, I am the leader. When necessary, I am the only one who can take the blame."

"But we proposed the D.A. organization." Hermione said with some self-blame, "Even if you have to bear Umbridge's anger, it shouldn't be you."

"But forget it! Even if she catches me, she may not be able to do anything to me, but if it were you, I don't need to remind you what the consequences would be!"

The three of them were speechless for a moment, and they had to admit that what Aaron said made sense.

Umbridge might be concerned about his family background, and maybe a few days of detention would be fine, but the three of them were different. If they fell into her hands, they would most likely be expelled.

"Maybe it's not that serious!" Ron said weakly.

"Do you believe this?" Aaron said speechlessly, "Or do you think Umbridge has a conscience?"

"This..."

"Okay, leave if you have nothing to do. I won't care if you get caught."

The three looked at each other and walked out with a heavy heart.

But as soon as they reached the door, the whole room began to shake slightly.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of the explosion became clearer and clearer. Aaron seemed to have thought of something and immediately pulled them back.

"What's going on?" Ron asked nervously.

"What could it be? The blasting spell hit the door." Aaron said unhappily, "I asked you to leave just now, but you didn't. Now it may not be so easy to leave."

"What should we do?" Hermione's face turned pale. She knew who was outside the door without thinking.

The worst thing happened. They were caught red-handed.

"Don't talk, don't make any noise." Aaron said very seriously, and then cast a layer of disillusionment spell on them, "Leave after she takes me away."

The bodies of the three people just became transparent, and the door was completely blown open.

In the light smoke and dust, Umbridge's pink sweater was particularly conspicuous, and she still had a smug sneer on her face. On her left and right were the administrator Argus Filch and the minister's secretary Percy Weasley.

"Where are the people? Where did they die?"

When Umbridge found that Aaron was the only one in the room, she suddenly felt bad.

This was different from what she thought. Solving criminal gangs and arresting students who violated discipline were completely different things.

"Professor Umbridge." Aaron pointed at himself embarrassedly, "I am 100% sure that I am a person."

Umbridge's mouth twitched slightly, and Toad's face was red like a volcano about to erupt. "Don't play dumb with me. Do you know what I'm talking about?"

"That's a bit too much. How can I know what you're talking about if you don't tell me?"

"Heh!" Umbridge sneered and said complacently: "Mr. Gaius, I have been tolerating you since last year, and I have always turned a blind eye to the mistakes you made, but that doesn't mean I will pretend that nothing happened."

"Understand." Aaron nodded calmly.

"It's your attitude that I hate the most." Umbridge pointed at Aaron angrily, "You are so pretentious, as if you have never taken me seriously."

"Be more confident." Aaron scratched his ears nonchalantly, "Remove the word 'as if'."

"You..." Umbridge laughed in anger, "I tell you clearly that the matter of Dumbledore's Army has alarmed the Minister of Magic, and he is now in the headmaster's office.

Moreover, we have sufficient evidence and witnesses, so don't think you can fool us so easily this time."

Aaron looked at Percy Weasley standing beside him thoughtfully, as if he understood something, "Although I don't understand what you are saying, it seems that you are here for Dumbledore?"

Umbridge snorted coldly, and could not deny it.

"I think you should go to the headmaster's office with us now."

Percy and Filch consciously stood on the left and right of Aaron, as if they were worried that he would run away.

"Don't be so nervous." Aaron smiled, "If I want to resist, you all together will be useless."

"That makes sense." Umbridge smiled and nodded, "Weasley, take his wand."

"Take it out yourself, don't embarrass me." Percy said lightly.

Aaron spread his hands indifferently and put the wand in his hand, "Mr. and Mrs. Weasley will feel..."

"Disappointed? But I don't think I did anything wrong.

If they listen to me and support the Ministry of Magic, everything will be very different."

"No, I don't mean disappointment, but heartache."

Percy was stunned for a moment, but soon calmed down.

Aaron continued, "Mr. Weasley was in the hospital during the Christmas holidays. You didn't go to see him, did you!"

"I know he's fine." Percy said proudly, "As the minister's secretary, I can easily figure out some things."

"So that's why you didn't go to see him?"

"I..."

"Enough, enough." Umbridge interrupted, "Take him over first, the minister is still waiting!"

"Thank you for reminding me, Deputy Minister." Percy said seriously, "We should go."

After confirming that they had left, Ron lifted the Disillusionment Curse and scolded indignantly, "Percy actually...too much How did he become like this, it was a dog's leg. "" He will come back, and your parents have always believed in this. "Hermione hesitated," but the premise was that he knew he was wrong. " Dear, I, George, George, and Golden, all four of us can be on that list. " "I believe it," "I am worried about another thing now. But they were too busy to take care of themselves now, and could do nothing but worry and comfort themselves.

......

Third floor, entrance to the principal's office.

"Sizzle honey candy."

Umbridge read out the command happily, and the stone beast jumped to the side, revealing a slowly rising spiral staircase.

They climbed the stairs and broke into the principal's office without even knocking on the door.

The principal's office was particularly lively today. In addition to Dumbledore and Fudge, there was also the vice-principal Professor McGonagall, a dark-skinned bald wizard, and a strong male wizard with short hair.

"Minister Fudge, long time no see."

"Mr. Gaius." Fudge looked a little unnatural, "You should know why I came here today, right?"

Aaron glanced at Dumbledore without a trace, "I barely guessed a little."

"So..." Fudge paused and asked meaningfully, "You won't hinder me, right?"

Aaron raised his eyebrows, he could read the meaning of Fudge's words.

If you don't hinder me from dealing with Dumbledore, everything will be fine, but if you decide to stand against me, don't blame me for being rude.

Fudge didn't want to offend a wizard family with great influence, but if he could keep the power in his hands, he would do it without hesitation.

"Of course." Aaron nodded slightly, "I still support the minister's decision, and I am not unable to cooperate when necessary, but... Professor Umbridge seems to have a little opinion on me."

Fudge pretended to be surprised, and then glared at Umbridge fiercely.

Chuck!

Umbridge gritted her teeth in anger, but after a moment she chose to follow her heart and forced a stiff smile, "Mr. Minister, this may be a misunderstanding, I will find a chance to explain later."

"Mr. Gaius, you see..."

"There is no need to explain, no matter how many words you say and do not mean, it is just a joke.

As long as she doesn't deliberately target me in the future, I will thank Merlin."

Umbridge:......

What do you mean? Don't I have any face to show off in front of Fudge?

"No, I can promise." Fudge didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and then looked at Dumbledore with gloating, "Unfortunately, the senior investigator found an illegal organization in this school.

I think you can explain it, I'll give you a chance to explain it."

"I really don't know about this." Dumbledore said.

"Haha!" Fudge laughed triumphantly, "I knew you would say that, but I have a witness."

"Minister, I'll go and bring the informant here now." Umbridge said.

"Go! Hurry up.

Nothing is better than a good witness, right, Dumbledore?"

"That's right, Cornelius."

A few minutes later, Umbridge hurried back, followed by a Ravenclaw witch, who was the informer Marietta Edgemore.

It's just that she behaved very strangely, covering her cheeks with both hands, and could only carefully observe the surrounding environment through the gaps between her fingers.

"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place!" Aaron sighed.

Marietta trembled slightly and almost lost her balance.

"Don't be nervous, dear." Umbridge comforted, "You did very well, the Minister is very satisfied with you, he will tell your mother that you are a good girl.

Minister, she is the daughter of Mrs. Edgemore, from the Floo Network Management Bureau of the Department of Magical Transportation. It is she who helps us monitor the Floo Network of Hogwarts."

"Very good, very good performance." Fudge applauded, "Like mother, like daughter."

"That's right, like mother, like daughter." Aaron sneered.

Fudge pretended not to hear the sarcasm in Aaron's words, but looked at Marietta enthusiastically, "Dear, don't be shy, tell us what you report."

Marietta raised her head tremblingly, Fudge's face changed immediately, and he stepped back a few steps in horror, almost falling into the fire.

Others also saw her face, the dense purple pustules on her face formed the word "snitch", which looked hideous and terrifying.

"Puff!" Aaron laughed very inappropriately, "Sorry, I don't want to laugh either, but I really can't help it."

Marietta immediately shrank her face into her robe, revealing only a pair of hazy tearful eyes.

"Okay, take off your robe!" Umbridge was a little impatient, "No one here will care about your face, tell the minister quickly."

"Hahaha..." Aaron laughed, "Don't get me wrong, I just thought of something funny, you guys continue."

Marietta seemed to be hit by this harsh laughter, she shrank her head even lower, and at the same time whimpered and cried.

"Forget it, let me tell you!" Umbridge said helplessly, "Miss Edgemore came to me tonight and said that there was a secret room on the eighth floor called the Room of Requirement, where there was some kind of party, which seriously violated the laws of the Ministry of Magic.

But when she was about to continue, the curse on her face began to work. After she saw her face in the mirror, she... was so sad that she didn't want to say anything."
