Chapter 631 Dumbledore's Secret Army

When Kyle arrived at the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, there was no one around.

He knocked on the door.

"Come in." Umbridge's voice came from inside.

Kyle pushed the door open and walked in.

It was still the same as the last time I came here, with all kinds of exquisite handicrafts everywhere, but there seemed to be a lot more cat plates on the wall.

"I'm disappointed..."

When the door of the office was closed, Umbridge, who was originally smiling, immediately looked at Kyle with a strange look that could not be told whether it was disappointment or complacency.

"I was in this office yesterday, waiting for you to tell me something interesting, but you didn't come.

"This may prove that you are not as loyal as you said before, but still on Dumbledore's side. "

"I don't understand what you are talking about, professor. " Kyle said in surprise: "Is there anything I should know?"

"Oh?" Umbridge chuckled and said: "Well, I can give you a little reminder.

"As far as I know, dozens of people went to the Hog's Head Pub in Hogsmeade yesterday. Can you tell me what they were doing there?"

"Is there such a thing?" Kyle was surprised, "How come I don't know."

"Lie!" Umbridge's voice gradually became cold, "As far as I know, many of those people are your friends. How could you not know? Maybe you were there too."

"That's impossible." Kyle shook his head, "I have never been to the Hog's Head Pub, and I don't know if there is any party there."

"It seems that you don't intend to tell the truth." Umbridge smiled again, In a coquettish voice, she said, "How about another week of detention for lying to the professor? I think you will be willing to tell the truth by then."

"Everything I said is true." Kyle's expression remained unchanged. "Yesterday, after I arrived in Hogsmeade, I went to the elegant wizard clothing store. Miss Daphne Greengrass of Slytherin can testify to this. She was also in the store at that time."

"What happened after that!" Umbridge said, "I remember that the party was not early. You can go to the store after you come out of the clothing store."

"After that, I stayed in the Three Broomsticks and didn't go anywhere." Kyle said.

Umbridge looked at him with some suspicion, "Can anyone prove it?"

"Anyone who has been to the Three Broomsticks can do it."

Kyle said, "I was sitting opposite the door at that time. Many people should have seen me."

Umbridge was slightly stunned, as if she didn't expect Kyle to say that.

"You didn't lie?"

"Of course not. Kyle said, "And Ms. Rosmerta can also prove that I didn't go out before noon.

"Or you can ask the people who went to the Hog's Head that day if I was there."

Umbridge was silent for a moment.

When she raised her head again, the smile on her face became even more fake, making people feel uncomfortable at a glance.

"No need, I definitely believe you." She said in a strange tone, with a bit of mockery: "But your so-called friends don't seem to be like that."

"Ah, yes." Kyle resisted the urge to punch her in the face and said, "I didn't expect that they would hide so many things from me. It's so disappointing."

"Then, I need you to help the Ministry of Magic investigate this matter." Umbridge continued to smile and said, "Dumbledore chose to hold a meeting at the Hog's Head, and those people also chose the Hog's Head. Maybe there is a connection between them."

"Is it possible that this is just a coincidence." Kyle said.

"Absolutely not." Umbridge said firmly, "I don't believe there is such a coincidence. Those people must be a secret force developed by Dumbledore among the students."

Kyle didn't say anything, mainly because he didn't know what to say... It was rare for him to tell the truth, but Umbridge didn't believe it.

Dumbledore chose the Hog's Head because he felt that there were only his own people there and it was safe enough. Cedric and his friends went there purely because there were few people and they wouldn't be eavesdropped by others.

So this is really just a coincidence, nothing more.

Dumbledore also developed students as a secret force?

It has to be said that Umbridge and Rita Skeeter should be able to chat, after all, they both have unpredictable and outrageous ideas.

However, seeing Umbridge's undoubted look, Kyle didn't say anything, just nodded and said: "Leave this to me, Professor, I will definitely find out."

"Then it's up to you." Umbridge said, "Don't let me down."

"I will investigate it clearly." Kyle said, "For the Ministry of Magic."

Umbridge's expression immediately became serious.

"For the Ministry of Magic!"

...

"So, you are going to report us?"

Fred asked in the locker room during the Quidditch training match in the afternoon.

This is the Hufflepuff locker room. Logically, Gryffindor people should not come, but now they are the only ones here, so it doesn't matter.

"In theory, I should do this." Kyle wiped the broom in his hand and said, "Hand you over to Umbridge in exchange for house points."

"Tell Umbridge what we are going to do, how many points will she give you."

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be less than 50 points."

"So little?" George was a little disgusted, as if he felt that Umbridge was too stingy. "We are Dumbledore's secret army, and only worth 50 points? I thought it was at least 100 points."

"No wonder you didn't go to the Hog's Head Inn that day." Fred said, "Did you know that this would happen a long time ago?"

"Not too early." Kyle shook his head, "I only remembered it after I arrived in Hogsmeade."

"Haha, let you investigate our party." George couldn't help laughing, "She will never know the truth."

"But I still don't understand." Cedric said, "Why did Umbridge find you, and it seems that you have to help her.

Also, what did you mean by standing on the opposite side of Professor Dumbledore yesterday?"

"This is part of the plan, and it's hard to explain it in one or two sentences." Kyle said, "You just have to remember that we are now opposed to each other... At least let Umbridge believe that this is the case."

George rolled his eyes. "So... can we beat you up here? After all, that's what we did when we faced Slytherin."

"That's right." Fred laughed sinisterly, "It's three to one now, you have no chance of winning."
