Link made a gesture as if he was sarcastic about whether Umbridge could not understand human words.

As soon as this said, the Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors around him burst into laughter.

Laughing ran through the entire auditorium, and the Christmas ribbons that had not yet been removed shaking on the walls.

This scene is so similar to Draco and the others before when they laughed, but the laughter was countless times louder.

Umbridge felt that the laughter was like a huge slap on her cheek.

She roared with her red eyes:

"Shut up!"

There were less laughter in the audience, but only less.

More students were not afraid of Umbridge at all, but laughed louder than others, while adhering to the idea of ​​not ruling the law.

It was not until Link made a gesture of silence that the terrifying laughter in the auditorium gradually subsided.

This scene made Umrichi look like he was shattering, but he was helpless.

Link sighed a long sigh and said in a helpless tone:

"Umbridge, since you really don't understand, I will reluctantly explain it to you. I, Link Fley, are not vetoing your decision as an ordinary student, but using the power of my Hogwarts school manager!"

Umbridge's face froze, while Link continued with a sarcastic look:

"As a professor hired by Hogwarts, you should know what power the school director has, right? As the only school director at Hogwarts, I am alone enough to represent the entire Hogwarts board of directors! The school board of directors has the power to remove any student or professor. And this power is not limited by scope! That is to say, if necessary,

I can even remove the principal of Hogwarts!”

Link's expression became serious, and he stepped forward and pointed at Umbridge and shouted, "Do you still think I have no right to reject your decision? You have to remember! Hogwarts is Hogwarts of the School Board, Hogwarts of all teachers and students, but it will definitely not be Hogwarts of the Ministry of Magic!"

Umbridge was shocked by Link's expression and retreated repeatedly.

Seeing this, the students in the audience gave Link the strongest applause and cheers, and one of them was George and Fred, the two guys who worked the most.

Both of their hands were already red.

Umbridge, who reacted, wiped the sweat from his face and his heart sank to the bottom.

She was a student of Hogwarts before. After serving in the Department of Magic for several years, she became a professor at Hogwarts. She naturally knew what kind of power the school board had.

What Link just said is indeed the power of the school board, and it is written in the original contract of Hogwarts.

Because the original school board members actually only founded the four giants of Hogwarts.

In other words, the so-called school board is just a tool created by the four giants to ensure that they can control Hogwarts for a long time. Naturally, they do whatever they can do.

It was only later that Slytherin's departure led to the fall of the four giants, which led to the outflow of seats in the school board.

But now the times have changed.

Any power or contract requires strength to master and control.

Faced with a behemoth like the Ministry of Magic, the Hogwarts School Board has become a thing that simply provides funds to Hogwarts in exchange for reputation and a little bit of preferential treatment in recent centuries.

As for the rest of the power, the school directors did not have the courage to use it at all.

Because even if they give orders, no one will implement them, so it can only be the joke of Hiratsu.

This is also why Lucius Malfoy and the others saw Dumbledore so upset, but they could never drive Dumbledore away from the position of principal - the gap in strength between the two sides was too big.

However, now Link has moved out this old antique rule!

"Are you not afraid of the Ministry of Magic at all?"

Umbridge gritted his teeth and said what he was thinking.

"I actually haven't understood why the Ministry of Magic can point fingers at Hogwarts." Link shook his head, "It was fine before, but now the entire Hogwarts finance is supported by my Foley family. Even your salary is paid by me. In other words, I am your boss. As an employee, you dare to talk to your boss?"

After the words finished, the people around him were applauding again.

Umbridge was stunned.

She would not simply regard Link's words as a rebuttal or ridicule to her.

In fact, she heard a strong sense of threat from this.

Yes, power does require sufficient strength to be exerted, but now the comparison of strength between the Ministry of Magic and the Hogwarts school manager has been reversed.

Under the current situation where the Ministry of Magic has suffered a huge blow, the Foley family, which still has huge wealth, is undoubtedly the real strong man.

Once the Foley family withdraws its investment, the current Ministry of Magic will definitely not be able to support a behemoth like Hogwarts.

The final result is highly likely to be a loss in the Fry family and the Ministry of Magic, while Hogwarts was caught in the middle and completely declined.

And she, Umbridge herself, as one of the culprits who directly led to the decline of Hogwarts, was she considered a scapegoat in the end even if she was just executing orders from the minister.

After figuring this out, Umbridge's red and hot heart, which was scorching with anger, finally cooled down, and replaced by regret.

Umbridge closed his eyes in pain.

As a school director, 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 removed with just a little excuse!

It’s a pity that it’s too late to cooperate now.

Judging from the relationship between Harry Potter and Link, after she treated Harry Potter like this, she and Link would probably be enemies in the future.

Since that's the case, let's do it completely!

Umbridge opened his eyes.

At this time, her eyes had regained their coldness, and she said with an expressionless face:

"Mr. Foley, you will regret what you did today!"

After saying that, Umbridge turned around and left with a group of volunteers.

Before their figures could leave completely, a deafening cheer burst out from the auditorium.

The Hufflepuff and Gryffindor were all crazy.

The scene where Umbridge retreated before seemed to them as a great victory!

They roared wildly and gathered around Link, surrounded Link and went to the speech platform, saving Harry and others who were bound by the spell.

"Link—"

Hermione stood not far away and murmured with tears in her eyes.

As for Harry and Ron, they hugged Link's thighs and arms early, and refused to let go no matter how others pulled them.

Everything that just happened was really terrifying. Now to them, Link is like a savior.

"Link is really outstanding!"

Professor Sprout in the faculty seat said with great emotion.

A layer of mist appeared in her eyes. It has been a long time since Hufflepuff Academy had an excellent student, but in these classes, not only did Cedric appear, but also Link have tasks like this.

This made her feel extremely relieved.

The professors around him nodded all the time when they heard this.

Especially Professor McGonagall.

She was in a happy mood at the moment and even ignored the fact that George and Fred were standing on the long table of Gryffindor to celebrate.

They knew very well how difficult it was for Umbridge to deal with it. Even Dumbledore sometimes had to retreat in front of her, but he didn't expect that this time he fell into Link's hands.

With Link's help, Dumbledore's plan to drive away Umbridge should be smoother.

As soon as Professor McGonagall's idea appeared, the next scene made her face lose a smile.

Because Link was directing everyone to rescue Harry and others and sent Hagrid to the infirmary, he did not sit back to his seat, but stood in Umbridge's previous speech position.

He pressed his hand gently, and the noisy auditorium became quiet in an instant.

Then Link looked around and said with a smile:

"Now, the dinner begins!"

Link didn't speak loudly, and in theory he had no authority to announce the banquet, but Hogwarts' house elves responded to his orders as soon as possible.

Innumerable delicacies instantly appeared in the dining plate on the long table, and the entire auditorium also fell into a sea of ​​joy with the cheers of the crowd.

...

This dinner after the Christmas holiday shouldn't have lasted for too long.

The food standards on the dining table should be mostly leftover ingredients for Christmas dinners, and they will not be too high.

But today's dinner seemed to have no end under the influence of the rising emotions of the crowd.

During this period, George and Fred have not yet shown their latest research results - Weasley's swishing fireworks!

This special magic fireworks combines the aesthetics and simplicity of the fireworks, and at the same time, the effect is better, smart and vivid. Especially the Fire Dragon turned into the first exhibition, which is simply lifelike and won a lot of applause for the Weasley brothers.

Of course, while having such excellent results, the disadvantages of this kind of fireworks are also obvious.

That is, there is a lack of security.
