Hogwarts Kryptonian

The Ministry of Magic's suppression of the news of the Azkaban prison break is a basic operation, but such a major event is circulated privately among wizards, and it seems to have become a traditional art.

Lu Yunkai waited all night and saw no relevant news in the Daily Prophet at noon the next day, so he ran to warn Hermione, let alone some sources who were worried about his children.

In fact, many people, including Malfoy, had already learned about relevant matters on the night the prison break occurred.

Of course, most of them were Slytherins, but there were also a few children of wizards whose parents had participated in the escape attempt that morning.

Most of these people have received warnings from their parents: "Don't go out and talk nonsense."

Things may not have spread so quickly originally.

Until the dinner the day after the prison break, which was also a Halloween dinner party. When he was going to see off the classmates who were going back for Halloween weekend, Dumbledore publicly stated at the banquet that because of "some reasons", the students on Halloween weekend We may not be able to go home.

And Dumbledore found an extremely outrageous excuse (Lu Yunkai even felt that he was deliberately making random excuses): the Hogwarts Express needed maintenance.

This made many students (especially first-year students) who had been looking forward to this weekend for two months very unhappy.

But there is no other way. The school won't send them off, and their parents can't pick them up. They can only stay in school...

The original homecoming weekend became mandatory detention. It was inevitable that these unhappy students did not want to ask "why." At this time, the truth of the matter came to light.

"The Death Eaters imprisoned in Azkaban escaped. Although most of them did not escape, two people managed to escape."

"This is different from Sirius Black who sneaked out of Azkaban a few years ago, but he broke in clearly and forcefully! And then they broke out of the Ministry of Magic! What does the Legal Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic do? "

"What's even more frightening is that with these two dangerous elements roaming around, the Daily Prophet is still reporting that Minister Fudge went to watch the Quidditch League and kicked off the game in person..."

The uneasiness about the Death Eaters escaping from prison and the dissatisfaction about not being able to go home to see their parents turned into anger at the Ministry of Magic's inaction.

This naturally rubbed Umbridge off her feet.

She would never allow anyone to question the authority of the Ministry of Magic.

…

"Umbridge has been idle for less than a month, and she comes out to cause trouble again??"

Malfoy slammed the table angrily.

None of the others beside him said a word.

The entire Slytherin lounge was very quiet.

Everyone seemed to be in a bad mood.

Except Lu Yunkai.

He is very calm.

"She hasn't stopped this month! She just hasn't done anything to us Slytherins."

Lu Yunkai's words didn't seem to be persuasive at all.

Malfoy was stuck.

Oh, yes! In the past month, Umbridge has teamed up with Slytherin House to suppress students from the other three houses. Can this be called leisure? Here, Malfoy is very advanced!

"What should we do? Shall we hand over the mirror?" Gower, who was standing aside, changed the topic awkwardly.

He is also an important member of Umbridge's law enforcement team.

"How is it possible!! My father spent so much money to buy me a gift, hand it over??" Malfoy glared at Gower.

Gore was a little embarrassed and fell silent.

His mirror was cheap...but Draco's mirror cost tens of thousands of galleons! !

"It's not about money." Lu Yunkai shook his head, "The main reason is that without the mirror, it is inconvenient to communicate with family members. Draco, you are doing well, your parents are in China, and Daphne's father is abroad... "

As he spoke, he gently patted Daphne beside him on the shoulder.

Daphne lowered her head, holding the communication mirror in her hand, with a very depressed expression.

"Then there's nothing we can do, right? After all, Umbridge is qualified to make school rules... This is the authority given to her by the Ministry of Magic." Crabbe joined in from the side.

Then he was dismissed by Lu Yunkai and Malfoy at the same time.

"There are reasonable and unreasonable things in school rules. Maybe the principal has the authority to abolish them, but we say it is really of no use!" Crabbe pretended not to see the eye rolls of the two people and continued, "I think we should get rid of them as soon as possible. It’s better to send all the mirrors home.”

"No." Malfoy gritted his teeth, "We can't just give in on this matter!"

"What are your plans?" Lu Yunkai looked at Malfoy and asked.

Today is the first day after Halloween weekend, and just before lunch, Umbridge announced a new school rule.

Hogwarts students are prohibited from using communication mirrors on campus.

The reason for issuing this school rule is actually well known to the vast majority of students (especially Slytherins): it is because during the past weekend, through the communication mirror and whispering in the lounge, almost the entire school Students all know why this weekend when they could go home has become a mandatory detention.

Even Lu Yunkai felt that Umbridge's ban on the use of communication mirrors in school was actually a quite "symptomatic" management method.

You must know that Sirius escaped from Azkaban the year before last and could not hold back until more than two months later. Moreover, when the news was published in the Daily Prophet, it still shocked most wizards.

But this time, the Ministry of Magic didn't even hide it for three days, and the whole Hogwarts knew about the matter...

No one believes it if it has nothing to do with the communication mirror, which was only launched this year.

What's more, Umbridge's school rule is not completely unreasonable.

You know, there are many magic spells that are fine to be used outside of Hogwarts, but are forbidden spells in school, such as the magic amplification spell used by Lu Yunkai in a duel with Hermione a few years ago.

The use of magic spells can be restricted, and the use of magic items can also be restricted.

Legally speaking, it makes sense, but naturally there is no way to do it.

Therefore, Lu Yunkai, who had figured this out, was very calm.

What's more, he had already been reminded by Snape a few days ago that Umbridge might do something that would affect him.

Although Lu Yunkai didn't expect it to be this at the time.

But looking back, Snape's guess was very reasonable.

Therefore, Lu Yunkai's dissatisfaction with Umbridge turned into admiration for Snape.

Snape's thoughts were much more meticulous than his!

Lu Yunkai, who had remained calm, did not mind thinking deeply. This time Umbridge issued this ban in the school, perhaps it was also a test: the Ministry of Magic could not ban it in a big way outside Hogwarts. The use of communication mirrors is prohibited in Hogwarts. Isn't it a big problem?

Then, maybe it would be appropriate to try extending to other places? For example, it is prohibited to use it while working at the Ministry of Magic...

Little by little, nibbling away.

Anyway, in Hogwarts, now that Dumbledore obviously doesn't want to confront her, she can do whatever she wants, so there is no problem in formulating a legal school rule as the first step.

If she can succeed for a while, and even become part of the traditional school rules of Hogwarts... Umbridge may not be uninterested in becoming the next Minister of Magic.

However, she seems to have made the problem a little simpler.

Just like after the Ministry of Magic closed down the communication mirror shop, Umbridge's school rule requiring no communication mirrors in the school also aroused the dissatisfaction of many people.

The Slytherins were the first to bear the brunt: after all, students from the other three houses combined did not hold as many mirrors as Slytherin students.

And Slytherin students... to be honest, they are not easy to mess with.

Malfoy, for example, is extremely angry right now.

Recently, his mood has become very sensitive because he is worried about his parents, and now he wants to ban the mirror through which he can communicate with his parents...

"I want my father to go to the school board to protest." Malfoy said angrily: "When will it be the Ministry of Magic's turn to have the final say at Hogwarts?"

"...I think you'd better not trouble your father at this time." Lu Yunkai gave Malfoy a friendly reminder.

Malfoy one card.

But soon.

"No, I absolutely cannot bear it."

He shook his head firmly again.

"Okay." Lu Yunkai saw that he couldn't be persuaded, so he didn't stop him.

In fact, it is more in Lu Yunkai's interests to let Malfoy go find his father...

Just do it. In front of a group of classmates, Malfoy took out a mirror and contacted Lucius.

As for Lucius, who looked obviously almost ten years older than the last time he saw him in the mirror, Lu Yunkai suddenly felt a little bit distressed...

But when he heard that Umbridge was going to ban Draco from using the communication mirror, and might even confiscate it, Lucius jumped up.

"She must not be allowed to act recklessly in school!!"

Lucius hung up the communication. It was obvious that he wanted to resolve this matter immediately.

After receiving a promise from his father that was not a promise, Malfoy's expression improved a little bit...

After the other Slytherin students in the lounge saw Malfoy's actions, they also took out the communication mirrors in their hands and complained to their parents.

…

Only this time, things seemed to be a little off.

The latest Daily Prophet at noon the next day.
