Link's gesture seemed to be mocking whether Umbridge couldn't understand humans.
As soon as the words came out, the surrounding Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors burst into laughter.
Laughter resounded throughout the auditorium, and the Christmas ribbons that hadn't had time to disassemble on the shaking walls shook for a while.
This scene is so similar to when Draco and the others laughed before, but the laughter was countless times louder.
Umbridge felt that the laughter was like a big slap on her cheek.
She screamed with her red eyes open:
"Shut up all to me!"
There was less laughter in the audience, but it was only less.
More students are not afraid of Umbridge at all under the idea that the law does not blame the public, but laugh more loudly.
It wasn't until Link made a silent gesture that the terrifying laughter in the auditorium gradually subsided.
In this scene, Umbridge's teeth were cracking, but he was helpless.
Link sighed long and said in a helpless tone:
"Umbridge, since you really don’t understand, then I’ll reluctantly explain it to you. I, Link Foley, are not using the status of an ordinary student to veto your decision, but using I am the power of the Hogwarts school manager!"
Umbridge's complexion froze, but Link continued mockingly:
"As a professor hired by Hogwarts, you should know what powers the board of directors have? As the only board of directors at Hogwarts, I alone can represent the entire Hogwarts board of directors! And the board of directors has The power to dismiss any student or professor. And this power has no scope limit! That is to say, if necessary,
I can even dismiss the principal of Hogwarts! "
Link's expression became serious, and two steps forward, he pointed at Umbridge and shouted, "Do you still think I have no right to veto your decision? Remember! Hogwarts is the Huo of the school board. Gwarts is the Hogwarts of all teachers and students, but it will definitely not be the Hogwarts of the Ministry of Magic!"
Umbridge was horrified by Link's forced expression, and backed back again and again.
The students in the audience gave Link the most violent applause and cheers when they saw it. Among them, George and Fred were the two guys who worked hardest.
The hands of both of them were red.
Umbridge, who reacted, wiped the sweat off his face, and his heart sank to the bottom.
She was a student of Hogwarts before, and became a professor at Hogwarts after a few years in the Ministry of Magic, so she knew exactly what power the school board had.
What Link just said was indeed the power of the school board, and it was written in black and white on the original Hogwarts contract.
Because the original members of the board of directors were actually only the Big Four who founded Hogwarts.
In other words, the so-called school board is just a tool created by the Big Four in order to ensure that they can control Hogwarts for a long time. It is naturally how power comes from.
It was only later that Slytherin's departure caused the Big Four to fall apart, which led to the outflow of seats on the Board of Trustees.
But now the times are different.
Any power and contract need strength to master and control.
In the face of such a behemoth as the Ministry of Magic, the Hogwarts Board of Trustees has become a matter of simply providing funds to Hogwarts in exchange for fame and a little bit of preferential treatment in the past few hundred years.
As for the remaining powers, the school directors simply do not have the courage to use them.
Because even if they give an order, no one will execute it, it can only increase the jokes.
This is also the reason why Lucius Malfoy looked at Dumbledore so unhappy, but they still couldn't drive Dumbledore away from the position of headmaster—the power gap between the two sides was too great.
But now Link has moved out of this old-fashioned rule again!
"Aren't you afraid of the Ministry of Magic at all?"
Umbridge gritted his teeth and said what was in his heart.
"I actually haven't understood why the Ministry of Magic can point fingers at Hogwarts." Link shook his head. "It used to be forgotten, but now it's clear that the entire Hogwarts finances depend on my Folly family. In support, even your salary is paid by me. As far as I am concerned, I am your boss. As an employee, you dare to make irresponsible remarks with your boss?"
When the voice fell, the people around were applauded again.
Umbridge was stunned.
She wouldn't take Link's words as pure rebuttal or ridicule.
In fact, she heard a strong threat from it.
That's right, power does require enough strength to be able to use it, but now the power contrast between the Ministry of Magic and the Hogwarts board of directors has been reversed.
In the current situation where the Ministry of Magic has been hit hard, the Foley family, which still holds a huge amount of wealth, is undoubtedly the real powerhouse.
Once the Foley family divested, the current Ministry of Magic would definitely not be able to support such a behemoth as Hogwarts.
In the end, there is a high probability that the Foley family and the Ministry of Magic will lose out in the fight, and Hogwarts will be caught in the middle, completely deteriorating.
And Umbridge herself, as one of the culprits that directly led to the downfall of Hogwarts, even if she was only implementing orders from the minister, could she be regarded as a scapegoat in the end.
After figuring this out, Umbridge's red and hot heart was finally cooled down, replaced by regret.
Umbridge closed his eyes in pain.
As the school manager, Link is her best partner!
If she can get Link's help, then with the joint efforts of the Ministry of Magic and the school board, Dumbledore can be easily dismissed as long as she finds a little excuse!
Unfortunately, it is too late to talk about cooperation.
Judging from the relationship between Harry Potter and Link, after she has treated Harry Potter in this way, she and Link will probably only be enemies in the future.
That being the case, let's take a break and do it!
Umbridge opened his eyes.
At this time, her eyes had returned to coldness, and she said blankly:
"Mr. Foley, you will regret what you did today!"
After that, Umbridge turned and left with a group of volunteers.
And before their shadows left completely, there was another deafening cheer in the auditorium.
The people in Hufflepuff and Gryffindor were all crazy.
The previous defeat of Umbridge was definitely a great victory in their eyes!
They screamed frantically and gathered around Link, and surrounded Link on the speech platform, freeing Harry and the others who were bound by the curse.
"Link--"
Hermione stood not far away and whispered in tears.
As for Harry and Ron, they hugged Link's thighs and arms early, and would not let go no matter how others pulled them.
What just happened was really horrible, and now Link is like a savior for them.
"Link, this kid is really good!"
Professor Sprout on the faculty seat said with emotion.
There was also a mist in her eyes. Hufflepuff College has not seen an outstanding student for a long time, but in the past few years, not only Cedric but also Link has appeared. Such a task.
This made her feel extremely relieved.
The professors around also nodded when they heard the words.
Especially Professor McGonagall.
She was so happy that even the two guys, George and Fred, were standing on the Gryffindor table dancing and celebrating.
They knew how difficult it was to deal with Umbridge, and even Dumbledore would sometimes retreat in front of her, but they didn't expect to fall into Link's hands this time.
With Link's help, Dumbledore's plan to drive off Umbridge should become smoother.
This thought of Professor McGonagall just appeared, but the scene before her left her face without a smile.
Because Link commanded the crowd to rescue Harry and the others and sent Hagrid to the infirmary, instead of sitting back in his seat like this, he stood in the place where Umbridge was speaking before. .
He pressed his hand lightly, and the noisy auditorium instantly quieted down.
Then Link looked around, smiled and said:
"Now, the dinner begins!"
Link didn't speak loudly. In theory, he didn't have the authority to command and announce the opening of the banquet, but the house elves at Hogwarts responded to his instructions as soon as possible.
Countless delicacies instantly appeared on the dinner plate on the long table, and the entire auditorium plunged into a sea of joy with the cheers of the crowd.
...
The dinner after the Christmas holiday should not last too long.
Most of the food standards on the table should be leftover materials for the Christmas dinner, not too high.
But today's dinner seems to never end under the influence of the crowd's high emotions.
In the meantime, George and Fred have yet to show their latest research results-Weasley swish fireworks!
This special magical firework takes into account the beauty and simplicity of strenuously drawing fireworks, and at the same time the effect is more dexterous and vivid, especially the fire dragon that was turned into the first phase of the exhibition, which is almost lifelike, and won a lot for the Weasley brothers. applause.
Of course, while having such excellent effects, the shortcomings of this kind of fireworks are also obvious.
That is the lack of security.
George made a clear statement about this-his hairstyle was blown into explosive heads in the process of lighting the fireworks.
But such a shortcoming will naturally not hinder everyone from buying Weasley's whistling fireworks, and everyone feels that they will not be as unlucky as George.
Everyone played this night very happily, which to a large extent offset the fear that Umbridge brought to everyone.
The only unhappy person may be Professor McGonagall.
She didn't stop George, Fred and the others from the mischief, but when the dinner was halfway through, she moved away with a face.
Before leaving, he gave Link a cold look.
She appreciated almost all of Link's actions tonight, except that Professor McGonagall felt that something was wrong when he went directly to the stage and announced the banquet.
If you insist on explaining, Link's behavior can actually be explained. It is nothing more than that the young people are so excited that they have not estimated the faces of them as old people.
But Professor McGonagall doesn't think that Link's mentality and maturity will fail to consider these issues.
After contacting Dumbledore's previous disclosures when he was still at Hogwarts, she had some unpleasant premonitions.
Professor McGonagall's steps outside the auditorium began to get faster and faster.
She felt she had to urge Dumbledore to come back soon.
Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be some things that I don't want to see happen.
Link's indifferent gaze has been watching Professor McGonagall until the other person's figure disappeared outside the hall before he chuckled and drank a glass of pumpkin juice.
"what--"
With a refreshing breath of heat, Link put down the cup.
The next moment Hermione leaned over with a big teapot, eagerly helping Link refill the cup, and when it was over, she looked at Link with a puppy's eyes.
"Thank you, Hermione."
Link took the cup and bowed to Hermione.
Hearing that Hermione’s smiling eyes were almost out of sight, she kept shook her head, and asked Link if there was anything else she needed to do?
This situation has been going on for a while.
In some places next to her, Harry, Ron, and the rest of George and Fred were not members of Hufflepuff College.
In fact, these guys started eagerly leaning towards Link not long after the dinner started.
For this reason, several kind Hufflepuff first-year students could only move their positions semi-actively.
As for the intention.
Naturally, they all came to thank you.
Especially George and Fred, after they demonstrated Weasley’s whistling fireworks and received a lot of praise, they told Link that they could share all the patents and manufacturing processes of this product with the Foley family for free. The only prerequisite is that the Weasley’s whistling fireworks made by the Foley family cannot be sold in the country.
Judging by Link's understanding of their two stingy personalities, George and Fred were really cruel this time.
It's a pity Link directly refused.
Money is meaningless to Link now. Instead of taking such a patent from George and Fred, Link is more willing to let them continue to owe this great favor. Until every moment, Link will Some form requires them to honor.
In addition to expressing gratitude to Link for the surprise, the three of Harry also took comfort from Link.
This is not to ask Link to speak softly~lightnovelpub.net~ but to stay with Link for long enough.
After all, Link's just coming forward made them feel a strong sense of security.
Now they can only make their heart hurt by Umbridge feel better when they are by Link's side.
But it's just a little better, Link is still far from letting them heal directly.
Just like Ron.
This guy's hands are still shaking too much to hold the knife and fork, and he can only eat with his hands.
After finally eliminating a large piece of barbecue, Ron caught a glimpse of Hermione holding the big teapot in front of Link with great diligence.
Inexplicably, Ron felt his heart twitch.
