Hogwarts Kryptonian

Chapter 228 Useless favors

"Meow, I really didn't realize that this Umbridge actually has such a scheming mind."

In the dormitory, Chris squatted on Lu Yunkai's chest, licking her paws and said to Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai was half-lying with his hands behind his head, thinking about the conversation he had just had with Umbridge in the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, and remained silent.

"Don't you think she has high expectations for you by doing this? Calm down! She's just going with the flow!" Chris reminded Lu Yunkai, "She couldn't stay at Hogwarts in the first place. For how long, torturing Sybil is just to find something to do. If I can sell you a favor, she will laugh out of her dreams. "

"What does she want from me?" Lu Yunkai finally said, "And you know she won't be able to stay long?"

"Even Fudge can't survive, let alone her!!" Chrissy shook her head: "Your favor is so valuable, and she's not blind. Voldemort actually used a chess piece that had been buried in the Ministry of Magic for so many years. Just to cover up the matter of taking you abroad! If Voldemort comes to power in the future, she will be able to ingratiate herself with Voldemort through you!"

"But just before the Christmas vacation, she was eager to kick me out of Hogwarts. Suddenly it changed. It feels weird." Lu Yunkai understood what Chris said, but still shook his head.

"Meow, before, she was acting as a pawn for Fudge to drive away Dumbledore, so she always had to find some breakthrough. You are always trying to get someone else's gun. If you don't deal with it, who will you deal with?" Chrissy shook her head, " Now that Fudge is no longer able to protect herself, she must have more ideas, so there’s no problem!”

"...The trees fell and the hozens scattered!" Lu Yunkai let out a long sigh, "It's really dirty."

"Meow, this isn't called dirty..."

"You don't need to tell me, I know this is how the world should be." Lu Yun laughed, "But if I have a choice, I really don't want to hang out with these people."

"But you have no choice, unless you stand opposite all of them like the guy in Nurmengard."

"But even if Grindelwald is in power, these people will inevitably be used!" Lu Yunkai sighed, "Umbridge is right. Forget it, let's not worry about this. It won't do me any harm for the time being anyway."

"I've been telling you that it's not bad for you, meow! It's just like the Magical Apothecary Association. If you were asked to do it yourself, you would definitely find it troublesome and not want to get involved. But you also saw it last year. There are so many things like this. it works……"

"Stop being so nagging!!" Lu Yunkai glared at Chris, "Okay, I'm going out to find Daphne. What about you? Are you still watching over Gryffindor?"

"Aren't you worried that this precious friend of yours will break up with you?" Chris complained, "But I think it may be inevitable. When he talks about you recently, he doesn't have a good word to say. They are gathering at DA again tonight, I guess. I’ll have to say a few more words to you.”

"I really don't care about this. When Voldemort's matter is resolved, he will understand. What I'm worried about is that Voldemort lied to him about Sirius before. I'm really not sure what Voldemort means by coming here all of a sudden."

"Meow! I'll go find out for you! Let's go now!!"

"I'm not urging you..."

"I did it consciously! You have done Sybil such a big favor, I owe you."

"You tell me whether you owe me something or not..."

Seeing Chris jumping out of bed and disappearing in a flash, Lu Yunkai smiled helplessly.

Just as he was about to stand up from the bed and go to the lounge to chat with Daphne, the door to the dormitory opened.

"Yunkai!! Something happened!!"

"...What are you doing? What's wrong?"

Lu Yunkai was stunned when he looked at Blais rushing in from outside the room.

"Umbridge just ran to the Prophecy classroom and said she wanted to expel Professor Trelawney."

"……What??"

Lu Yunkai was stunned.

Didn't this woman just promise that she would let Trelawney go?

Even if you regret it, you won’t regret it so quickly! ?

"Lu Yunkai! You are here!!"

"...Don't panic! Blaise, take care of Padma and the others here."

"Leave it to me."

Blaise took a deep look at his good friend and nodded.

He remembered the scene where Daphne in the lounge wanted to follow her just after coming out of the dormitory, but was stopped by Lu Yunkai.

"What if you go with Blaise?"

At the time, Blais didn't understand what Lu Yunkai meant at all.

Now I understand!

After seeing that Blaise had moved closer to Padma and her sister Parvati, whose faces were full of worry, Lu Yunkai knocked on the door of the divination classroom.

The strong smell of alcohol hit his face, making Lu Yunkai, who was already a little confused about what Umbridge was going to do, feel even more dizzy.

"You can't do this to me!! Hogwarts is my home! I...I..."

"Ms. Trelawney, actually I can. I am the principal of Hogwarts, and I have the right to expel any teacher in the school, especially one who is not worthy of the name like you..."

"How can you say that about me! I'm Trelawney..."

"Professor Umbridge? What are you doing?" Lu Yunkai felt a little uncomfortable listening to Trelawney's grievance, anger, and helpless crying voice, so he quickly checked Sense of presence.

"What are you doing here?"

Umbridge glanced at Lu Yunkai and asked casually.

The two looked at each other, and Lu Yunkai instantly understood what Umbridge was going to do.

She wanted to "help" Lu Yunkai sell this favor.

It's just...is this necessary? To be honest, Trelawney's favors were not valuable, so there was no need for her to remember this!

But she will never understand having a relationship with someone who only cares about profit!

"The OWLS exam is coming soon. I have some questions about divination that I would like to ask Professor Trelawney for help." Lu Yunkai tried his best to put a smile on his face.

"She will no longer be the Divination Professor at Hogwarts any time soon." Umbridge shook her head.

"Huh? Why? Professor Trelawney, do you want to... resign?"

"I didn't!! It was..." Trelawney shook her head quickly, but she really couldn't say the shameful word of being expelled.

"Even if you want to resign, you should at least wait until the summer vacation, right?" Lu Yunkai gave Trelawney a wink, "We are about to take the OWLS exam. What will we do if you resign at this time? Aren't you a fool? Professor Rich put it on the fire!"

Umbridge was stunned. She really didn't know how to answer Lu Yun's conversation.

What does this have to do with me?

Stay calm and watch how round you are.

"This is Professor Umbridge's first year as the Principal of Hogwarts. If the results of this year's OWLS and NEWTS exams are much worse than in previous years, it would be too ugly to tell. Don't you think so, Mr. Principal?" Lu Yunkai gave Umbridge a look.

"...I feel that even if Professor Trelawney continues to be at Hogwarts, it will be of little use in improving the school's performance." Umbridge said half-truthfully.

"Your Excellency, Principal, I remember that the pass rates for Hogwarts' Divination OWLS and NEWTS are pretty good, right? The Defense Against the Dark Arts class that has always had poorer results... you... are really not suitable for doing this."

"..."

Umbridge almost fell over.

This brat still speaks so rudely! !

Can these two courses be the same? ?

The students taught by Trelawney all have the same virtues as her. Opening and closing their mouths are "ominous signs" and "premonitions of death". They are like curses. Those OWLS and NEWTS marking teachers generally do not Whoever has nothing to do to get into trouble gets a low score!

Anyway, except for the Department of Mysteries, there are no other job positions that have any performance requirements for divination. Even if you give high scores, it won't matter...

What about Defense Against the Dark Arts? That is one of the grades that the Ministry of Magic values ​​most! The grading rigor is not at the same level at all, okay! !

And...what does my previous poor performance in Defense Against the Dark Arts have to do with me!

"Hogwarts has been in so much trouble this year. We can't let others say that without Dumbledore, Hogwarts' teaching performance will begin to decline, right?"

"...Hmph." Umbridge glared at Lu Yunkai.

This doesn't seem to be a big problem, it's quite convincing.

It is true that Umbridge parachuted into Hogwarts on behalf of the Ministry of Magic and took Dumbledore away, but if the school's teaching performance suddenly dropped significantly this year, it would be really hard to hear.

This can be regarded as Lu Yunkai reminding himself, and giving him an appropriate reward?

Um. good.

"Professor, it's like this. When I was practicing teacup divination today..." Lu Yunkai looked at Trelawney.

"Professor Trelawney. Since you are so loved by the students, I will give you another chance." Umbridge interrupted Lu Yunkai's improvised excuse, looked at Trelawney and said, "This year's If there are any bad changes in the scores of NEWTS and OWLS exams..."

"No! No! Don't worry, Principal!!" Lu Yunkai replied for Trelawney: "You go slowly, I also want to ask Professor Trelawney some questions about divination."

"snort."

Umbridge turned around and left directly.

With a bang, the room door closed.

But soon, the door to the room opened.

The twin sisters who had been guarding the door poked their heads in worriedly.

"professor……"

Although Parvati was greeting Trelawney, she was looking at Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai nodded slightly.

Parvati rushed in immediately.

Padma moved a little slower and walked into the room with Blaise who was staying beside them.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yunkai felt very happy in his heart.

Finally some results have been achieved! ! Although only a little bit...

"Professor! It's okay! We support you!!" Parvati, who entered the room first, said seriously to Professor Trelawney.

"Okay, here...you guys comfort the professor." Lu Yunkai glanced at the twins, then gave Blaise a look and said, "I'm leaving first."

"Yunkai! Thank you!" Blaise interrupted.

"...It's not your turn to thank me. Even for Chrissy's sake, I can't ignore this kind of thing." Lu Yun smiled and shook his head, and the joy he just felt disappeared instantly.

This silly boy! You still can’t figure out when and how to sell favors! At this time, Padma needs to thank me, and then you stand up and say that you don't need to thank me, as long as I know, I won't ignore it... Only in this way can you highlight the importance of you running to call me over!

Otherwise you are just an errand boy! !

Forget it, Blaise is actually pretty good like this. So much like his mother...

It’s scary to think about.

After bidding farewell to the twin sisters and giving Blaise a look, Lu Yunkai walked out of the tower where the prophecy classroom was located and walked down the spiral staircase.

Somehow, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

This...is the eighth floor.

Lu Yunkai has not been to this place at night for a long time...

Chrissy said that Harry is currently organizing DA training inside, would you like to go and take a look?

Forget it, Harry didn't say hello to Lu Yunkai very much recently during class.

well……

Leave him alone.

Lu Yunkai shook his head.

It’s better to concentrate on dealing with Umbridge’s matters and Voldemort’s matters!

It would be better for Harry to leave it to Chris.

It's like giving Ginny to it in second grade, and to be honest, it's still pretty reliable.

Oh, and Hermione...

It shouldn't be a big problem, right?

The last chapter added some drama to Umbridge, the character with the biggest bug in the entire HP book in my opinion, because some book friends mentioned it, so I will explain it here.

In fact, I have always felt that Umri, as the Deputy Minister of Magic during the non-Voldemort period (even if she is a close confidant of Fudge, she has to follow the rules and qualify to get this position. Even though she always likes to take credit from others, but taking credit is Things are not simple, right). Later, when Voldemort was in power, she was still able to hold a position to count Muggle-born wizards (which means that Fudge's downfall did not have a big impact on her). She could be regarded as taking both black and white, and even in the end Voldemort fell. She can also have a high-end suite in Azkaban... If she is really a simple idiot, it is an insult to the intelligence of the entire wizarding world, black and white. No one who can reach such a position is simple and stupid, otherwise Hermione's future position as Minister of Magic will not be very promising...

Taking into account some descriptions of British officialdom in a drama called Yes Minister, I arranged such a plot. I think it's quite reasonable...well, I'm not pushing YM (fake), hehe

Finally, don’t worry, everyone, as the second most hated character in HP books (after Lockhart), I won’t give her a good outcome... This shouldn’t be considered a spoiler, right?
