Chapter 382 Trelawney is fired
Chapter 382 Trelawney is fired
Umbridge received a warning from Sainz when she wanted to deal with Hagrid, but Trelawney did not have much friendship with him, and Umbridge keenly discovered this.
Without any external interference, Umbridge still used her as a breakthrough point. One evening, Sainz was curled up on the sofa in the office digesting his food when he suddenly heard a noise outside.
Looking down from the window, there were quite a few people gathered at the entrance of the hallway, sticking their heads out to look inside.
Listening carefully, I found that it was Umbridge who was confronting Trelawney.
"No, I can't accept it!" Trelawney's sharp voice came from the hallway, and a suitcase rolled upside down from the steps in front of the hall to the open space in front of the castle.
"Of course you didn't expect this," Umbridge's little girl voice came, "Of course you couldn't predict it, because you are a liar who can't even predict tomorrow's weather!"
"How dare you," Trelawney said, "Dumbledore relies on me, I've been teaching here for sixteen years, you can't sack me!"
"Obviously Dumbledore was fooled by you!" Umbridge's voice was full of pride, "But the Minister of Magic won't. Minister Fudge signed your dismissal order an hour ago."
After Umbridge finished speaking, Trelawney's crying was heard in the hallway, and Professor McGonagall's comforting voice could be vaguely heard, "...Sybill...you will not leave Hogwarts..."
While there was a commotion in the hallway, Sainz saw Dumbledore coming back from the Forbidden Forest, followed by a tall centaur. As he approached the castle, he glanced towards the fifth floor as if he had noticed something.
Sainz transmitted the message, "Professor, it seems that you are not really unaware of it. The replacement candidates are ready."
"You see," Dumbledore said calmly, "I am not yet completely senile."
"Okay, professor, as long as you're happy, just don't get too carried away. You know, I don't have much patience."
"I know what's going on." Dumbledore remained calm.
Dumbledore passed through the crowd gathered at the entrance to the hall. Umbridge was shouting, "Who, who has the right to keep her at Hogwarts? Who approved it?" Dumbledore was just in time to answer Umbridge, "I."
Umbridge screamed, "Under Educational Order No. 23, Dumbledore, I have the power to sack her! I have sacked her!"
"That's not denying your rights," Dumbledore said calmly. "You do have the right to fire her, but I'm afraid you don't have the right to kick her out of the castle. I hope Professor Trelawney stays in Hogwarts. This is the headmaster's right."
"Let me go!" Trelawney cried. "Let me go!"
Dumbledore said without question, "No, Sybil, I need you to stay in Hogwarts... Professor McGonagall, please take her upstairs..."
The subsequent events were similar to the original trajectory. Umbridge was ready to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble again, probably wanting to use the vacancy of the Divination professor to insert one of her own people into the position. However, she did not expect that Dumbledore had already prepared the candidate, so her plan failed.
Umbridge, having finally exercised her rights, remained quiet for a while.
The external affairs have little impact on Sai, and he still carries out his research as planned.
He had previously thought about using the Thestrals' ability to selectively be witnessed to develop an automatic identification spell, but it had always been put at the back due to priority. Now that many other research projects have been completed, his attention has shifted to this.
In fact, the magic world currently has items that can detect malicious intent. The peephole and magic mirror are all alchemical items with similar functions.
However, Sainz believes that their sensitivity needs to be strengthened. Taking the looking glass as an example, it is impossible that the mouse had no malice at all when facing Harry, but the looking glass only responded when the mouse was most malicious at the beginning, and it was not activated at other times.
Another thing is that the detection range of these items is a bit too short, and the Thestrals can be seen from a much farther distance, as long as a person's eyesight is good enough... Come to think of it, it is not an exaggeration for such a large Pegasus to be seen at two thousand meters.
Thestrals even allow people to use corrected vision, which means that as long as the requirements for being witnessed are met, they can still be seen even through a telescope at a greater distance.
If Sai could fully understand this characteristic of the Night Thestral, his passive detection range would be greatly expanded.
Magic, magic, if it's not magical, how can it be called magic.
At that time, even if the other party is not within Sai's subjective feeling range, as long as the other party has ill will towards him, he will be able to sense it.
To take a step back, even if we cannot achieve the ability to know the moment we think about it, at least we should be able to sense when the other person glances over here, regardless of whether the gaze is normal or corrected.
Lao Fu has a similar "thing", which is his name.
Voldemort placed a spell on the word "Voldemort". When someone said it, he would know it, and he could even give this ability to other people.
Later, Harry and his crew were caught by the dark wizards because one of them uttered that word.
This spell sounds simple, but it is not easy to implement. Apart from Lao Fu, it seems that no one else has similar magic.
Time flies when I am immersed in research. As March begins, Scotland starts to get more rainy.
One day at breakfast, Sainz was suddenly told that Dumbledore had "escaped".
"What do you mean?" Sainz asked, "What do you mean Dumbledore escaped? Professor McGonagall, do you know what happened?"
"Professor Autumn!" Umbridge said triumphantly before Professor McGonagall could speak. When she met Sai's gaze, her triumphant expression immediately disappeared. "Dumbledore is wanted for plotting to build an army in the school to resist the Ministry of Magic."
"Oh? Really? Perhaps Professor Umbridge can help me clear this up?"
Umbridge stood up from her chair. "Professor Autumn, and other professors, we have solid evidence that Dumbledore is carrying out secret activities. He has admitted this himself. When facing the questioning of Minister Fudge last night, he fled in fear of the crime."
Sainz looked at the others and said, "Perhaps you can tell me who provided that exact evidence?"
"Of course, of course," Umbridge said pretentiously, "The Ministry of Magic will certainly not accuse a person without any basis. Willy Weathersing reported to us that someone was holding an illegal gathering in the Hog's Head Inn..."
"Willy Weathersing?" Sainz said, "I seem to have heard of him somewhere."
Professor McGonagall said sarcastically, "You've heard of it, of course. He was facing charges some time ago for causing the toilet to back up. It was reported in the newspapers."
Sainz nodded in understanding. Using pardons of crimes as a profit to lure and coerce lawbreakers into serving those in power was purely their basic operation.
