Everyone seemed to be very interested in the gossip between Umbridge and Snape, even Hermione who was usually very indifferent to such things was no exception.

Among the people present, Harry and Ron were the most excited. They seemed to have been suppressed too hard by Snape. Now they suddenly heard the dirty information about Snape, and they were all excited.

His body began to sway.

Looking at the sparkling eyes of the people present, and thinking of Ron's superb storytelling ability, Mike felt that in a few days, there would be various stories about Snape and Umbridge's school days.

The story of love, hate and hatred will spread throughout Hogwarts from Ron's mouth.

Shaking his head, Mike quickly pulled Franklin out of the Potions classroom.

He really couldn't imagine how Snape would look after hearing the story Ron made up.

However, Mike obviously underestimated Ron's creative ability.

When Mike, Franklin and others took a break and came to the auditorium to prepare for lunch, they found that Ron was already standing in his old position, with a red face and telling everyone something.

There were already many people in the auditorium at noon, and the stories Ron told were exciting and topical enough, so within a short time he was surrounded by people.

Most of these listeners are melon-eaters. They all have big, shiny eyes, listening to Ron's enhanced version of Umbridge

scene in.

But the sharp-eyed Mike discovered that not everyone liked this story.

At least the Slytherin students didn't like it.

But their expressions were very strange. According to Mike's assumption, if Ron dared to insult their dean like this, they should have stepped forward and taken action against Ron.

But at this moment, they were gathered together in small groups, all looking at Ron with gloating eyes.

'It seems that they have already filed a complaint, so Snape should be here too.'

With this thought in mind, Mike didn't even bother to eat, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Ron off the table and push him out of the auditorium.

Ron's face was full of surprise, but when he saw that the person pushing him was Mike, a smile appeared on his face again, as if he wanted to say something.

However, his smile quickly disappeared, because before Mike and Ron had gone far, they saw Umbridge surrounded by a group of Slytherins.

"She...she's here to find me, right?"

Looking at the menacing Umbridge in front of him, Ron stammered, and when Mike saw this, he loosened his grip on Ron's robe and frowned at the same time.

He did not expect that the visitor would be Umbridge.

Because according to common sense, even if Slytherin made a report, the target should be Snape.

But now Umbridge has arrived in the auditorium before Snape, which shows that those Slytherins probably did not notify their dean at all, but directly reported to Umbridge!

"Ron Weasley!" Umbridge quickly came to Ron on two thick legs and shouted with a pair of blood-red eyes, "How dare you make up lies to slander the professor!"

"I...I"

Ron stammered, his eyes kept drifting towards Mike, as if he wanted to ask Mike for help.

"Confinement! Three hours of confinement every day for one month! Implement immediately!"

After Umbridge finished speaking, two tall Slytherin students immediately walked out from beside her. They held Ron on the left and right with a grin and walked towards the hall.

The students in the auditorium who had gathered around the long Gryffindor table to listen to the story immediately dispersed when they saw this, while the Slytherins let out bursts of harsh ridicule.

Franklin looked at Mike worriedly. Everyone knew better than him that the news about Umbridge actually came from Mike in the first place.

However, what Franklin was most worried about did not happen. Umbridge just glared at Mike fiercely, and then quickly left the auditorium.

The Slytherins around him all looked unwilling, and in the end they could only make a throat-cutting gesture to Mike, and helplessly followed Umbridge's pace.

Mike didn't react at all to the Slytherins' provocation. He still stood there in deep thought.

The Slytherins are behaving so abnormally at the moment that one has to wonder if they have abandoned their Professor Snape and turned to Umbridge, a new and more powerful backer.

If it were another house, this kind of thing would never happen, but Slytherin is different.

The will that this college has always adhered to is to assess the situation, protect oneself wisely, and win first. It is not surprising for them to abandon the original dean and change the school for the sake of greater interests.

After thinking about this clearly, a smile of unknown meaning suddenly appeared on Mike's face.

If things are really as he expected, then his plan should have reached its climax!

…

Throughout the afternoon, Mike and others were taking Professor Flitwick's Charms class.

Not surprisingly, that annoying pink figure appeared again in this class.

Fortunately, compared to Snape, Umbridge's attitude towards Professor Flitwick was quite kind, otherwise Mike might really have to fight Umbridge immediately.

When Mike and others returned to the auditorium after class, they saw that there were many people sitting in the auditorium that was supposed to be empty.

Most of these people's eyes were dull, and some of them had red eyes. It looked like they had just cried.

Ron, who was taken away and detained by Umbridge at noon, was also among them, but Harry and Hermione were comforting him.

"You are..."

Mike said doubtfully, and Ron, who looked dull, saw that the person who came was actually Mike, and immediately burst into tears as if some mechanism had been triggered.

"Mike! Umbridge...she is simply not human!" Ron cried and wanted to hug Mike. "She reactivated Filch's punishment chamber and used the torture instruments in it to punish us!"

After ducking sideways to avoid the rushing Ron, Mike looked at the other people around him.

"Then why were they imprisoned?"

"Alas!" Hermione sighed, pointing to a few senior students with red marks on their faces, "They are members of the Wizards Wireless Club, and they were gathering together to listen to the wireless broadcast this morning.

The Weird Sisters’ new song resulted in the Slytherin students filing a complaint against Umbridge, and then they were imprisoned for violating the club ban. And the most egregious thing was that their magic radios were also confiscated!”

Hermione pointed to a group of younger teenagers,

"They were from the Crackle Club. They were playing Crackle at that time, and then the Slytherin students suddenly burst into their dormitory and took them all to the punishment room. The crime was also a violation of the club ban.

"

"They are from the Gobstone Club... They are from the Literary Club... They are from the Classical Club...

…”

Hermione introduced everyone in the auditorium without stopping, while Mike in front of her already looked confused.

Mike could swear that before today, he really didn’t know that there were so many weird little societies hidden in a small Hogwarts, and there was even a wizarding society that specialized in following Muggle TV series. This was Mike’s

Unexpected at all.

"There are worse things." Hermione shook her head. "Umbridge sat in on almost all the classes that she could sit in on today and reviewed those professors. She even asked the substitute Professor Grapeland

She didn’t let her go. This is really too bad. Because of her, the professors were so nervous that they couldn’t teach us properly!”

"Your focus is a bit strange, isn't it?" Harry's expression was a bit strange after hearing this, and he complained, "Shouldn't the focus we should pay attention to be that all the Slytherin students have now become Umbridge's minions?

Now Umbridge has given them great power. Malfoy has been surrounding me almost all day today, warning me not to violate school rules, otherwise he will hang me up and beat me. Fortunately, I have an invisibility cloak.

, otherwise I won’t be able to participate in Quidditch training.”

Mike and Hermione frowned again, and they shouted to Harry in unison:

"You went to Quidditch practice again today?"

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it." Harry scratched his head in embarrassment, "Angelina (the captain) insists that we go to training. If we don't go, she will beat my head to pieces."

Mike shook his head helplessly. After all, Harry was just a child, and one of the characteristics of children is that they have poor self-control.

But it’s too exaggerated to have such a low self-control, right? How much do you really like Quidditch?!

Seeing Mike's disappointed look, Harry's expression tightened and he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain.

However, before he could speak, the door of the auditorium was pushed open with a bang.

"Scarhead! You're finished this time!"

Malfoy, with a ferocious smile on his face, shouted at Harry, and behind him were a large group of Slytherins who also had sarcastic expressions on their faces.

The students in the auditorium who were still in a daze seemed to have seen something terrifying, their bodies started to tremble instinctively, and some girls even started to cry.

Seeing this, Slytherin laughed even more arrogantly.

"I have received a tip! Your group of stupid Gryffindor lions held an illegal assembly this afternoon!" Malfoy approached Harry with his hands on his hips, "Now, according to Professor Umbridge's order, I will take you

Put in the punishment room!"

"You're talking nonsense! I didn't even -"

"Stop quibbling!" Malfoy laughed loudly, "Your dear captain has already explained everything!"

As he spoke, Malfoy took out a piece of parchment, on which many names were densely written with a blood-red unknown viscous liquid, and there was Angelina's signature and a fingerprint at the end.

Harry's face turned dark when he saw this, while Hermione next to him walked out of the crowd and came to Malfoy.

Since girls develop earlier than boys, Hermione was now half a head taller than Malfoy. This height difference made Malfoy instinctively take half a step back.

"Malfoy! Who do you think you are?" Hermione said coldly, "Only professors can punish students. Who do you think you are and you have the right to take Harry away?"

"I have orders from Professor Umbridge!"

Malfoy was a little angry.

"Then you should ask Umbridge to come here in person!"

"I...I won't be nagging you, you idiot..."

Malfoy instinctively wanted to say those three words, but before he could say them, he felt a cold gaze staring at him closely. When he turned around and saw it was Mike, he immediately said the words that he had not yet said.

The three words that came out of his mouth were swallowed back.

"Give me...take this person away!"

Malfoy gave the order, and the Slytherins behind him quickly surrounded Harry. Many of them even took out their wands and looked at Mike warily.

Shaking his head, Mike stood in front of Harry. At the same time, he flipped his right wrist and a black wand appeared in his hand.

Upon seeing this, Harry's face was overjoyed, while the surrounding Slytherins were startled and began to retreat, with expressions on their faces as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Behind Mike, the students who were originally looking frightened saw Mike standing up, with shocked expressions on their faces.

They never thought that someone would dare to stand up and openly resist that old witch Umbridge at this time!

But at the same time, their eyes were also shining with hope.

They have been praying in their hearts that a hero will step forward to save them, and now, Mike has stepped forward!

They sincerely hope that Mike can win!

However, at this moment, a sharp shout pulled everyone out of the tense atmosphere.

"What are you doing!? Do you want to rebel?"

Professor McGonagall stepped on high heels and walked towards the crowd with a serious look on her face.

Seeing this, Mike put down his wand, and the Slytherins on the opposite side also let out a sigh of relief. Just kidding, Mike is notoriously strong. If he really wanted them to fight Mike, they would have run away long ago.

"Professor McGonagall!" Hermione hurriedly stepped forward, "They want to..."

"Okay! Stop talking, I already know everything!" Professor McGonagall's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. She glanced at Harry with both disappointment and anger, gritted her teeth and said, "Harry did this.

There is indeed something wrong! Let them take the person away!"

The crowd behind Mike immediately exploded, while the Slytherins looked at each other with smiles on their faces again.

Shaking his head, Mike silently put away his wand.

He was completely speechless with Professor McGonagall. When things got to this point, she still believed that rules were more important than anything else.

But she didn't know that what she did was tantamount to handing over the entire Hogwarts to Umbridge.

Sighing, Mike looked up at the sky and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
Chapter completed!
