Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

After relaying the information he asked from the dementors, Kyle was about to leave the principal's office. As for how Dumbledore would handle this matter, he didn't care.

After all, he didn't know the location of the sixty Dementors, and no one would tell him, so even if he wanted to help, he couldn't.

But just as he opened the door and was about to go out, Dumbledore's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Wait a moment."

"Is there anything else? Principal." Kyle asked.

Dumbledore had a strange expression and opened his mouth hesitantly, but finally shook his head, "No, not really... I just wanted to say that I might go out for a while starting tomorrow.

"Oh, I'll take Fox too."

At this point, Dumbledore was suddenly stunned. In fact, he didn't understand why he added this sentence... Maybe he was worried that Kyle would find another reason to borrow the phoenix, so he subconsciously wanted to refuse it first.

However, Dumbledore did not pause for too long, and quickly continued: "If you need to find me in any emergency, go to the Pig's Head Bar in Hogsmeade. I know you can sneak there."

"Just to deal with the dementors?" Kyle asked curiously.

There were only more than sixty Dementors in total, so no matter how you thought about it, Dumbledore wouldn't waste too much time.

And ever since the news of Voldemort's resurgence was made public, people in the castle have been panicking. Thanks to Dumbledore's presence, things have slowly calmed down.

If he leaves school now, especially if he disappears for a long time, it will more or less have some bad effects on the school.

"It's not entirely because of the dementors." Dumbledore said. "I also need to meet someone. A piece of his memory may provide us with crucial clues?"

"Who?" Kyle asked casually, not expecting an answer.

But unexpectedly, Dumbledore had no intention of hiding it, and immediately said: "Bob Ogden."

Kyle thought for a while, and after realizing that he didn't recognize him, he didn't care. He just thought he was a hidden member of the Order of the Phoenix.

After all, there were so many people in the Order of the Phoenix that Kyle couldn't possibly remember everyone. Just like Stoji, even if he was standing here right now, Kyle might not be able to recognize each other.

"Then I wish you all the best, Professor."

"Same for you."

After coming out of the principal's office, Kyle walked towards the common room. As he walked through the hall, he suddenly noticed a large group of people gathered in front of the bulletin board.

Strange, what kind of announcement is there at this time...

Out of curiosity, Kyle subconsciously walked over.

"Oh, Kyle..." someone said hello.

For a moment, the entire foyer immediately became quiet, and everyone looked over.

This was the first time Kyle had experienced this situation. He didn't react for a while, so he stood there and asked, "What happened to you today?"

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, but no one said anything. Finally, a Hufflepuff said hesitantly: "Um... I think you should watch it yourself..."

As her words fell, the students standing between Kyle and the bulletin board moved to both sides to make way.

Kyle didn't hesitate and walked over quickly.

A brand new notice was posted on the bulletin board:

[Ministry of Magic Award Announcement]

When he saw this title, Kyle was quite happy. The Ministry of Magic announced a reward to the whole school. This was a very revealing thing. I don’t know who was so lucky...

Then he saw his name.

But that's not the point. The point is the following paragraph.

"Kyle Chopper, a sixth-year Hufflepuff student, submitted his employment application to the Ministry of Magic some time ago.

Although he himself has not reached the age of office, in view of his many important clues in the resurrection of the mysterious man and his bravery to save Harry Potter from the siege of Death Eaters, the Ministry of Magic and Hogg Watts jointly decided to award him special admission.

“As of today, I officially assume the position of Senior Assistant to the Minister of Magic (Internship) and President of the Hogwarts Student Union.

"Another: During this special period, the Ministry of Magic will work closely with Hogwarts to welcome every outstanding student who intends to work. Regardless of whether their age meets the standards, we will seriously consider it."

[Signed: Cornelius Oswald Fudge, Minister for Magic

Headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore]

After reading all the contents of the announcement, Kyle felt like the veins on his forehead were pulsing.

What happened? When did he submit his employment application to the Ministry of Magic...

Kyle just wanted Dumbledore to be the minister, but he never thought about going to work in the Ministry of Magic... In this case, his mission has been completed.

And what does Dumbledore's signature mean? Couldn't he see that the Ministry of Magic was poaching Hogwarts?

no!

Kyle did not hesitate and immediately turned around and ran back to the eighth floor, arriving in front of the gargoyle stone head.

"Fluffy Tooth Mints!" Kyle said the password.

But what was surprising was that the stone beast didn't react at all.

Kyle shouted again, with the same result.

Apparently, Dumbledore had changed the password during his absence.

Kyle read the names of other candies and almost memorized the Honeydukes shopping list, but the stone beast seemed to be welded to the ground, motionless.

Kyle stood there, and he had a hunch that not only the password might have been changed, but even Dumbledore might have left the school by now.

With Fox here, it wouldn't be too convenient for him to go out.

Thinking of this, Kyle quickly walked to another corridor and stopped at the door of Professor McGonagall's office.

He knocked on the door.

"Kyle?" Professor McGonagall opened the door and asked curiously, "What do you want here?"

"That's it..." Kyle said quickly: "I have something important to ask Professor Dumbledore, but the password in the principal's office seems to have been changed."

"Ah, that's right..." Professor McGonagall's expression changed slightly.

Because just a minute ago, Dumbledore was standing in Kyle's position and told her solemnly that he could not tell Kyle the password to the principal's office under any circumstances.

"Can you tell me the new password?"

"What a coincidence." Professor McGonagall pursed her lips, and the muscles on her cheeks jumped, trying not to laugh. "The principal has something very important to do, and he left the school a minute ago. ”

"Run away?" Kyle took a few deep breaths.

"Come in first." Professor McGonagall opened the door and waited for Kyle to walk in before continuing to ask: "Do you have anything to do with the principal?"

"As for that inauguration announcement in the foyer," Kyle said, "I had absolutely no information before today."

"Oh, so that's it." Professor McGonagall said with a smile, "The principal specifically explained that this is what he should do, so there is no need to thank him..."

"Thank you?" Kyle couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Yes." Professor McGonagall said, "He said that the assistant minister is a good job and the salary is very good. He is very happy to see students sitting in that position before they graduate and provide some trivial help. .

"Oh, he also asked me to tell you that you must keep your heart and contribute more to the magic world."

"Haha..." Kyle laughed dryly, "But Professor McGonagall and the last paragraph of the announcement are obviously poking fun at Hogwarts, so you don't care?"

"No, you are wrong." Professor McGonagall shook her head, "Hogwarts is just a school. When students graduate, they will go to work in different places, including the Ministry of Magic.

"So in my opinion, not only is there nothing wrong with this decision, it is actually the best decision in recent years."

this……

Kyle was a little speechless, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

The reason why Fudge did this was undoubtedly to tie himself to his side and recruit more outstanding students to increase his prestige.

If Dumbledore really wanted to be a minister, this decision would naturally not be beneficial to him, but if it were just from the perspective of the headmaster, that would be another matter.

Just like Professor McGonagall said, students can find good jobs before graduation. It's too late for them to be happy, so how can they object?

"Do you have anything else to do?" Professor McGonagall asked.

"there is none left."

"In that case, go back quickly." She said with a smile, "I think your friends should have got the news and are waiting to celebrate for you."

Kyle sighed and left the office.

Things were just as Professor McGonagall thought.

When he returned to the foyer again, a large group of people had been waiting here for a long time, and they immediately gathered around Kyle after seeing him.

"Haha, Senior Assistant Minister, that's great..." Fred patted Kyle's shoulder suddenly.

"That idiot Percy graduated so long ago, and he just became an assistant to the minister..."

"And I only got to this position by betraying my family..."

George said, "Some time ago, he was slandering Dumbledore a lot. He also said that our support of Dumbledore was affecting his promotion, and he had a big fight with his parents over this."

"Mom was sad about this for several days..."

"If he knew that you had become his boss before you graduated, he would be so jealous that he would go crazy."

"Don't say that." Kyle shook his head, "It's just an internship. Maybe I will be dismissed tomorrow."

"Impossible." Tonks came over from a short distance away, "That's just because you haven't graduated yet. Just like me, if you graduate, you can naturally become a formal senior assistant minister."

Kyle rubbed his forehead, yes, another bad news...

"You and Umbridge are both 'senior'. Who has a higher position?" Fred asked curiously.

"There's no comparison," Tonks said, "Umbridge is the Deputy Minister, and the only one with a higher position than him is the Minister.

"But Kyle is not bad either. Senior assistant ministers have been able to participate in some important decisions in the ministry, and can even make some less important personnel adjustments when the minister is busy."

She looked at Kyle with burning eyes, "How about transferring me back to the Auror office? You have this power now..."

Kyle just pretended not to hear and ignored her.

This made Tonks so angry that her hair turned red. She even said viciously that she would cause trouble for Kyle in the next class, which caused a burst of laughter from around her.

Kyle narrowed his eyes and looked at Fred and George, who were smiling the most.

He remembered that Mrs. Weasley had always wanted them to work in the Ministry of Magic. We were all brothers. Now that he was capable, there was no reason not to take care of them.

Kyle decided to write to Mrs. Weasley when he got back to discuss letting them work in the Ministry of Magic.

He already had a position figured out, and was in the Department for the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts like Mr. Weasley.

As a senior assistant minister, it is too easy to recruit two people.

And Cedric... He also smiles happily, so come in too. Mr. Diggory should be very willing to work with his son.

Inexplicably, Fred and George felt cold all over, but they didn't pay much attention to it. They just thought it was the cold wind blowing in from outside and continued to laugh.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the foyer.

Harry, Hermione, and Ron also saw the announcement.

Ron looked at Kyle who was surrounded by everyone, curled his lips and said: "That's not fair, when it comes to providing clues... Harry, your contribution is much greater than Kyle's, isn't it.

You have been insisting on the news of You-Know-Who's comeback, why did the Ministry of Magic only give him a reward. "

"Don't say that." Harry shook his head, "Kyle really saved me, and he deserves a reward from the Ministry of Magic."

Ron didn't seem to listen and muttered under his breath: "Another Percy... Only a fool like him would want to work in the Ministry of Magic."

"The monthly salary of a senior assistant minister is one hundred and fifty galleons." At this time, Hermione said suddenly.

"How much?" Ron's eyes immediately widened.

"One hundred and fifty galleons, about the same as the deputy director." Hermione opened the newspaper in her hand, "This is today's Daily Prophet, which has more detailed content."

Ron grabbed the newspaper, and then his expression became bright.

He couldn't imagine how happy he would be if he could get a monthly salary of one hundred and fifty galleons.

"Harry, do you think it's still too late for us to write to the Ministry of Magic?"

"I'm afraid it's too late." Harry shrugged. He still had a lot of Galleons in his vault, but he didn't care much about the salary from the Ministry of Magic.

"But you can give it a try. Maybe you have a chance. Didn't the announcement say that they welcome every student?"

"Let's forget it." After struggling for a moment, Ron shook his head and said, "I don't want to work with Percy, otherwise I will go crazy, and the Ministry of Magic has slandered you before, and I dare say the school has also slandered you. Not many people want to join them..."

After saying that, he was about to return the newspaper to Hermione, but when he turned around, he found that Hermione was staring at the announcement intently.

"Wait a minute." Ron said in surprise: "Hermione, do you want to sign up..."

"Yes, I want to work at the Ministry of Magic." Hermione said firmly.

"Why?" Ron didn't understand. "Not long ago, the Ministry of Magic thought we were lunatics and refused to admit that the mysterious man was resurrected. How could you stand on their side!"

"That's in the past, isn't it?" said Hermione. "At least we're on the same side now."

"What about Umbridge," said Ron, "she's also from the Ministry of Magic."

"One Umbridge cannot represent the Ministry of Magic. Mr. Weasley and Tonks also work in the Ministry of Magic, but they are very good." Hermione said, "And there are many things in the wizarding world that are unreasonable now. For example, the attitude of wizards towards house elves...Only entering the Ministry of Magic can change all this."

"House elf?" Ron couldn't help interrupting her, "I thought you had given up on the plan to save the elf!"

"It's the House Elf Rights Promotion Association." Hermione corrected: "And I just put it on hold for the time being, I didn't give up."

"You know that's impossible," said Ron. "House elves like to work."

"But that doesn't mean they like to be shouted around roughly, like house elves in the kitchen. A simple thank you can keep them happy for days."

Hermione continued: "Kyle is right, I am going in the wrong direction, and I should call on everyone to treat house elves kindly, just like Harry did to Dobby.

"But it's also difficult. People don't listen to a student. You only have a chance if you go to the Ministry of Magic."

"I support you." Harry said with a smile: "You are the first in your grade. There is no reason for the Ministry of Magic to turn you away. Maybe you can become a senior assistant minister like Kyle."

"Thank you," Hermione said, "but I'd rather work in the Legal Enforcement Division."

"I want to be an Auror," Harry said, "but my grades may not be that easy to pass."

Ron looked at his two friends and blinked in confusion. He didn't understand why Harry, who had been slandered by Fudge and Umbridge for so long, wanted to join the Ministry of Magic now.

He felt as if he was the only outsider.

"Okay." He shrugged, "Since you all said so, I'll join in."
