Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

From the moment she noticed Umbridge's existence, Hermione's heart was filled with worry. She felt that this woman would definitely not just teach when she came to school. However, she seemed to be the only one who had this kind of worry. Others were not. Whether they were unaware of this situation or really didn't care, they were far more concerned about the food in front of them than Umbridge's purpose of coming to school.

Sure enough, Hermione's worries were quickly confirmed. When all the food on the table disappeared, and Dumbledore stood up as usual to tell everyone about the precautions for this school year, Umbridge stood up extremely impolitely and naturally. interrupted Dumbledore's speech.

Her voice was high and shrill, as if she had deliberately suppressed her voice to sound like a little girl's. The smile on her face seemed both deliberate and exaggerated, so hypocritical that it made people feel disgusted. What she said was very much like an official report from the Ministry of Magic. It used many vague and gorgeous words to promote that the Ministry of Magic attached great importance to education at Hogwarts, but it was vague and did not explain any specific measures. Her speech felt dull and boring, and it didn't take long for many students to become distracted. Hermione was one of the few who listened carefully to the end of her speech.

"What a very enlightening speech!" Hermione said in a low voice.

"You won't listen with interest! This is the most boring speech I have ever heard!" Ron looked at Hermione in disbelief.

"I said enlightening, not interesting! It says a lot," said Hermione.

"A lot of questions? But I think she just talked a lot of nonsense." Harry said in surprise.

"Yes, it sounds like she didn't say anything specifically, but her words contained a lot of information. What is meant by 'progress for the sake of progress should never be encouraged'!" Hermione explained, "I think What she said was an insinuation that the Ministry of Magic did not agree with some of Dumbledore's actions."

"And what she said, 'Keep what should be maintained, improve what needs to be perfected, and abandon what we should ban.'" Nidia said.

"You are also listening to her carefully!" Ron looked at Nidia even more surprised. "So what does this mean?"

"This means Hogwarts is about to change!" Nidia said.

"Yes!" Hermione nodded, "The Ministry of Magic is going to start intervening in Hogwarts. This is what I have been worried about. This woman is not just here to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts."

"Then what else does she want! Is it possible that she still wants to be the principal!" Michelle didn't listen to what Umbridge said at all, but she understood the analysis of Hermione and Nydia, "Dumbledore Lido can't let this happen, right?"

Hermione and Nydia looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of worry in each other's eyes.

"I hope so!" Nidia muttered helplessly.

The sound of tables, chairs and benches clashing announced the end of the dinner, and everyone stood up and prepared to walk out of the restaurant.

"Let's go! Ron, we're going to guide the first years!"

If it weren't for Hermione's reminder, Ron would have forgotten about this matter long ago. He seemed to be very uncomfortable with his status as a prefect. Nydia looked in the direction of Slytherin. Sure enough, Draco was busy gathering the new students in their college. It seemed like she would be better off not to disturb him.

"Let's go!" Nidia said to Michelle. She was indeed a little tired after riding in the car for a day, so it would be good to go back and rest early.

"Oh... you go back first! I will go back by myself later." Michelle looked in the direction of Slytherin, and Blaise was also looking towards her with his head stretched out.

"Okay!" Nidia felt a little disappointed in her heart, "Don't go past the lights-out time."

After Michelle nodded in agreement, she squeezed through the crowd and walked in the direction of Blaise.

"It looks like we are the only two with nothing to do, right!" Harry's tone also revealed a sense of disappointment. He had been staying with Ron and Hermione all this time, and suddenly the two of them suddenly After becoming a prefect and having other things to do, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Nitya shrugged, "At least you're not alone, right!"

"Yes!" Harry smiled helplessly, "Let's go!"

The two of them came out of the restaurant. Along the way, they noticed that people were constantly looking at Harry secretly. They were whispering and pointing, which made Harry feel very uncomfortable. In order to avoid the crowd, they finally chose to take a detour to another slightly smaller road. The longer but less traveled route leads back to the Gryffindor common room.

"It seems that many people are more willing to believe the nonsense in the newspapers..." Harry said angrily.

"Don't care about what these people think. They are just temporarily blinded by the Ministry of Magic's propaganda. We know what the facts are. Lies cannot cover up the truth forever." Nydia comforted Harry.

"Yes! But by the time the truth comes out, I'm afraid Voldemort will have become completely powerful. By then, what's the use of them believing the truth?" Harry said.

"We should be glad that we know the truth and can think of ways to stop him, right?" Nidia hoped that Harry could think on the bright side, "By the way, tell me about the Order of the Phoenix you talked about before. !what is that?"

"It's a mysterious society created by Dumbledore to deal with Voldemort. Many people have joined the Order of the Phoenix, including Sirius, Lupin, Moody, and Tonks, who you saw on the platform!" Speaking of the Order of the Phoenix, haha Leigh seemed to become a little happier, "The Order of the Phoenix already existed when Voldemort last rose, and my parents were only one of them..."

"Wait, Harry!" Nydia interrupted Harry, "You mean this is a society dedicated to dealing with Voldemort, right?"

"Yes! That's right!" Harry nodded.

"If that's the case, I think you'd better not tell me too much about the Order of the Phoenix!" Nydia said seriously, "I shouldn't know these things."

"Why? Is it because of your relationship with Voldemort?" Harry looked at Nydia in confusion, "Listen to me Nydia, no one cares about your identity. Sirius and Lupine have told you many times Dumbledore mentioned that you should be taken over, and so did Mrs. Weasley!"

"But Dumbledore didn't agree, right? If he wanted me to know this, he would do so, but since he didn't do this, it means that these things are not something I should know. There must be a reason for his arrangement! "Nitya said seriously, "So don't tell me anything about the Order of the Phoenix."

Voldemort didn't know when he would come to find him again. Although he had mastered Occlumency, as Barty Crouch Jr. said last time, some lies could be seen through without Legilimency. , so Nitya thinks it would be better for everyone if she doesn’t know too much.

"I don't understand! Everyone says that Dumbledore's arrangement certainly has his reasons, but I don't understand why he arranged it this way. Why can't he tell me what Voldemort is doing now? How do I see him? Resurrection, I think I have the right to participate in this." Harry became a little excited, and his voice became louder and louder, "I think he is avoiding me, and he doesn't even want to be alone with me. To put it bluntly, I don’t understand why.”

"Calm down Harry!" Nydia grabbed Harry's arm and looked at him in surprise. She had never seen Harry look so restless. He was full of complaints, like a bomb on the verge of exploding. , as long as he touches the slightest spark, he will be detonated immediately.

"I..." Harry seemed to want to continue talking, but when he turned around and saw Nitya's horrified expression, he immediately calmed down, "I'm sorry... I don't know what's wrong with me. I seem to be getting more and more angry recently..."

"It's okay, don't worry about it. Too many things happened at once, and it's normal to have some big mood swings." Although Nidia told Harry not to pay too much attention, in fact, she was worried about Harry's situation in her heart. Some concerns.

"I just want you to know that everyone trusts you, and I don't want you to feel like you're being left out... It's not a pleasant feeling." Harry recalled that he felt like this most of the time during the summer vacation. If it weren't for the Dementors' attack, he might not have known about the existence of the Order of the Phoenix until now. However, Hermione and Ron stayed in the Order of the Phoenix almost throughout the summer vacation.

"I don't think so. In fact, I think Dumbledore's arrangement is to protect me." The less involved with Dumbledore, the less Voldemort's worries about him.

"Okay..." Harry said a little disappointed. He thought that Nydia's thoughts were different from his own. She accepted Dumbledore's arrangement calmly, and he hoped to fight against Voldemort rather than being protected. , but what he didn’t know was that the reason why Nidia could calmly accept all the arrangements now was because she knew what she would need to do in the future.
