On Thursday, after a tiring day, Harry went back to confinement after dinner. Due to time conflicts, he could not participate in the activities of the small classroom. Although most of the activities in the small classroom were spell exercises, sometimes Solim would still play the role of a tutor, after all, the difficulty of the fifth-grade curriculum had risen sharply, and not only the ordinary students were not used to it, but even the students who were ahead of their learning progress such as Hermione also felt the pressure. In particular, Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class and Professor Flitwick's Charms class are learning new spells while reviewing old knowledge, and there is a lot of homework every day. The vast majority of students take more than three electives, and a slap in the face of Solim and Hermione.

The main content in today's small classroom is the paper exchange of professors of various subjects, which is commonly referred to as after-class homework help. Vanishing Charms and Anti-Spell designs weren't easy stuff, especially Neville, whose mind had been a mess lately.

After helping Neville and Draco review their papers, Hermione hesitated:

"Solim. "

"What's the matter? I don't think there's a problem with that anti-spell you've designed, Professor Fliwick will give you an excellent one. "

"Not this one. Hermione shook her head, "It's Harry's business. "

"What's wrong with him?" Draco asked with interest.

"He was ...... by Umbridge," Hermione hesitated, "I found the inscription on the back of Harry's hand at lunch today......" Hermione told him what he found out at noon and what happened to Harry when he was locked up at Umbridge.

"So what?" said Solim, "are you telling me this to get me out of the way?"

"Is it better to tell Professor McGonagall about this?" Hermione asked, "Umbridge's behavior is something that Hogwarts will never allow. This is no longer punishment, but abuse. "

"Do you think things will get better after telling Professor McGonagall?" Solim said, "I guess, Harry didn't take the initiative to tell you the truth, did you?

Nodding, Hermione said, "It's true, he's been unjustly mistreated, but ......"

"Unjust abuse?" Solim interrupted Hermione, "If you haven't forgotten, I warned you before, right? I told you not to provoke Umbridge, you didn't listen, and Harry didn't listen. He said something inappropriate on an inappropriate occasion, and he did it on himself. "

Solim's is heavy, and the stance of this sentence is somewhat strange, more like speaking for Umbridge. Hermione looked at Solim in disbelief.

"But Harry is telling the truth!"

"It's true, but it's anachronistic. Solim said, "Umbridge, you know who she is, do you think that just what she says will solve the problem?

"Umbridge's pen and Harry's ...... on the back of his hand"

"To be honest, I think it's a good thing for Harry. Solim laughed, "He's always been too impulsive, and if Umbridge can teach him what 'forbearance' is, I don't think it's unacceptable to make him pay a small price." "

Seeing that Hermione wanted to speak, Solim waved his hand and said, "That's not a dark magic item, if she can't bring a dark magic item into Hogwarts, Dumbledore will focus on her." "

"And you know, Harry has been tortured much worse than that. Solim looked at Hermione, "I don't know if Harry told you anything about that night—the night Voldemort was resurrected. "

Hermione shook her head.

"Harry's torture that night was much worse than any inscription on the back of his hand, and Voldemort's own Diamond Curse was still twice, once a Reimber Curse. Do you know that pain that you can't scream at, but Harry resisted, and though it was miserable, he did carry it. "

Solim took a deep breath, "For someone who was hit by the Diamond Heart Charm for the first time, Harry did quite well. I don't think Umbridge's little tricks can cause much physical torture to Harry, and with Harry's unrelenting nature, his will will will not be weakened by Umbridge's torture. The more Umbridge tortured him, the more he strengthened and honed his will—what's so bad about that? Except that he had to rest late to catch up on his homework. "

"According to you—is that a good thing?" Hermione looked at Solim suspiciously.

"In my opinion, that's a good thing. Solim corrected, "In your or Professor McGonagall's opinion, this is an intolerable atrocity." Everyone looks at things from a different perspective, so don't easily define what is good or bad. "

"Of course. It doesn't hurt if you want to tell Professor McGonagall. Solim said, "Umbridge will hold back a little for a while, but when the next education order comes out, she will start to get worse." "

"Education order?" Draco thought for a moment, "the kind you put up on the notice board last time?"

"That's it. That's only going to get more and more, now it's the Inspector of Professors - that's the power of the Headmaster and the Board, and then what? The Headmaster's power will be stripped away little by little, and if it is done well, maybe Dumbledore will be ousted from the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts. "

Solim was right. The next day, Friday, a new education order came out again, much faster than Solim had remembered.

Education Order No. 24: The Senior Inquisitor will henceforth have the supreme authority over all punishments, sanctions, and deprivations of authority involving Hogwarts students, and will have the power to modify such punishments, sanctions, and deprivations of rights imposed by other teachers.

Why so quickly? Because Ron went to see Professor McGonagall after lunch, and not surprisingly, Professor McGonagall went straight to Umbridge after seeing the back of Harry's hand and had a big fight. Umbridge did relent, and Harry's confinement that night did not use the pen that Umbridge had provided.

But just one night later, Umbridge posted another education order, and this time, Professor McGonagall could no longer interfere with Umbridge's punishment of Harry.

As soon as the new education order came out, not only the professors, but also the students began to be a little nervous. The new education order meant that Umbridge could do with the students at will, and the other professors could not interfere - far beyond the power of a normal Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.
