New Professor at Hogwarts

At night, Xia Ran, together with Moody, Hagrid, Snape, and Professor McGonagall, apparated to Grimmauld Place, London, and entered the old mansion of the Black family. Amidst the ear-piercing howls of the old Mrs. Black, , go through the corridor and enter the kitchen.

Lupine pulled the curtains firmly, and Old Mrs. Black's curses immediately disappeared.

"Here, do you want something to eat?" Lupine said, following him into the kitchen.

Sirius was busy at this time. It seemed that there were rarely so many people in this place. He expressed welcome and joy, and also helped Kreacher carry things. Mrs. Weasley also helped.

"Let's have a beer," Hagrid said, accidentally sitting on another chair - he had his own chair because of his weight - and the chair shattered into pieces, causing Hagrid to apologize.

"It's okay, Hagrid." Sirius said. While waving his wand and bringing the dinner plate over, he touched the broken chair and it was instantly intact.

Xia Ran scanned around and saw that there were many people in the room. In addition to a few wizards from Hogwarts, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Bill Weasley, Lupine, Sirius, and Mundungus. In addition, Tonks was also there, but Kingsley was not there. Like Dumbledore, he was probably participating in a meeting of wizards held by the Ministry of Magic.

"Wait a little longer." Mr. Weasley noticed Xia Ran's movements and said with a smile, "After Dumbledore and Kingsley come back, we will know the content of the wizard meeting at the Ministry of Magic and make a series of decisions. supplementary or other measures.”

"Yes, Xia Ran, would you like some sausage?" Mrs. Weasley said and sat down. She was smiling and seemed not to be bothered by the external situation at all.

But if you look closely, you can find that there is always a glimmer of worry in her eyes.

"Well, have some." Xia Ran had not eaten anything in the afternoon, and she was hungry now.

Bill looked at his parents and said, "Dad, Fred and the others said they wanted to come in here during the summer vacation."

"Welcome!" Sirius said, "Fred, George, Ron, Ginny, Hermione, I warmly welcome them here, and I will also personally invite Harry. His aunt and uncle are not good to him. , Harry would be better off living here with me."

"I'm afraid not, Sirius," said Moody.

"Why?" Sirius said, "I am his godfather, and I believe Harry is willing to live with me."

Snape suddenly let out a sneer.

"What are you laughing at, Snotlout?" Sirius immediately glared at Snape.

"Okay, let's all stop for a while." Xia Ran rubbed her forehead. Whenever Sirius and Snape met, there would always be quarrels and conflicts of one kind or another, which was really a headache.

Others were not surprised.

Xia Ran whispered: "Sirius, Harry must stay at his aunt and uncle's house before he reaches adulthood..." Seeing Sirius open his mouth as if to refute, he raised his right hand to interrupt Sirius, and continued: "Listen I'm done."

"I believe you all understand the reason why the mysterious man broke into Godric's Hollow more than ten years ago and wanted to kill Harry as a baby. Sirius, you should know the prophecy."

Sirius nodded slightly uneasily.

Snape's eyes flickered.

"The prophecy about Harry and the mysterious man has completely connected the two of them - well, the mysterious man may not be called a human being, his nature has indeed changed greatly - but in any case, Harry, the mysterious man In the end, only one person can survive." Xia Ran said softly, "Lily's magic is maintained by blood, and only Lili's sister - and of course Lili's sister's children - have the same magic as her. Bloodline. Sirius, you are Harry's godfather, and you are a good friend of the Potters, but you do not have that bloodline, so Harry must go back to his aunt and uncle's house to ensure that the magic continues to work."

Sirius was silent and replied after a while: "I know, I just hope he can come to my place to relax for a while during the summer."

"That's definitely no problem." Xia Ran smiled, "Harry will probably be happy to see you too."

Sirius seemed relieved.

"Come, eat quickly. Dumbledore and the others are probably arriving soon. I wonder if they have eaten?" Mrs. Weasley said, and suddenly there was a knock on the door in the hall, "They are here!"

"I'll open it." Lupine said. He sat near the door, got up and opened the door. Dumbledore and Kingsley followed him into the Black Mansion.

"Dumbledore, Kingsley, would you like some?" Mrs. Weasley asked.

"Thank you, Molly. We happened to be hungry. We had a meeting all day, and the Ministry of Magic didn't even provide a glass of water. It's really uncomfortable." Dumbledore said with a smile.

Professor McGonagall asked: "Albus, how is the situation? What was said at the wizarding meeting?"

Everyone listened attentively.

"About the trial and handling of Fudge and other former high-level officials of the Ministry of Magic, as well as how to deal with Voldemort and Death Eaters, and how to maintain stable order in the wizarding world." Kingsley replied, "Fudge has been sentenced, one hundred years in prison. He is locked up in Azkaban Prison, where he will spend the rest of his life."

"It's an advantage for him!" Sirius said, "All the dementors have left, and Azkaban prison has lost all its original terror."

"By the way, Arthur, you may be busy later." Kingsley looked at Mr. Weasley and said.

"What?" Mr. Weasley looked confused.

"This wizarding conference has rectified the departments of the Ministry of Magic and added many new emergency offices. Arthur, you will be responsible for one. Of course, your original office for prohibiting the misuse of Muggle items will also be responsible for it." Kings. Lai said decisively, "In short, your burden is heavier."

"Congratulations, Arthur." Lupine said with a smile. He was in charge of one more office and still held his original position. In fact, he was promoted.

Mrs. Weasley and Bill were also beaming with joy.

Xia Ran remembered that such a thing happened in the original time and space. After the news of Voldemort's return was completely exposed and Fudge stepped down, Mr. Weasley was transferred to a new office as the office director.

"What office?" Mr. Weasley asked.

"Let me think about it." Kingsley seemed to have forgotten his name and said apologetically, "That name is a bit long, I forgot it."

"Office for the Investigation and Collection of Counterfeit Defense Spells and Protective Supplies." Dumbledore added, "The wizarding meeting initially decided on a full staff of ten people. Arthur, you are really busy in the future."

"Fortunately, I'm not unfamiliar with it." Mr. Weasley breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the name, it was similar to the duties of the Office for the Prohibition of Misuse of Muggle Items where he originally worked, but the scope of items targeted was slightly different.

"By the way, Dumbledore, has the new Minister of Magic... been decided? Who is it?" Xia Ran asked, this is the question that everyone is most concerned about.
