Latest website: In fact, both of them knew very well that Albert would definitely not reveal the py transaction with Kingsley easily. At least they would not mention such secretive things easily here, so the two of them did not ask about it. On the contrary, they were surprised that Albert would agree to stay in the school as a professor of Defense Against Dark Arts. As far as they knew, Albert had never been a person who was keen on teaching students knowledge, and it was very likely that staying at the school as a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was part of the py deal.

Fred and George were right. Albert staying in school was indeed one of the results of the deal with Kingsley. He himself was really not interested in staying at the school as a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and he never thought about wasting too much energy and patience on the students of Hogwarts.

The reason is also very simple. Both Principal McGonagall and Minister Kingsley hope to use Albert's reputation to stabilize everyone's confidence in Hogwarts so that the school can open smoothly in early September. One of the troubles caused by Albert.

Fortunately, the benefits gained from killing Voldemort with his own hands were satisfying enough, otherwise Albert might regret doing so.

A familiar fragrance drifted from the side, disrupting Albert's thoughts. When he looked up, he found that the girls who had just gone to deliver flowers to the monument had returned.

Seeing that Albert seemed to be thinking about something, Isobel planned to help him regain consciousness, but she didn't expect that she would react quickly as soon as she got close to Albert.

"My dear, Penelo said there is a celebration party tonight." Isobel still kissed Albert's cheek and lowered her voice to talk about another thing: "She seemed to have just dumped Percy, and she was in a very good mood. Oops, I have to stay with her.”

"Oh, did they finally break up?"

Albert looked sideways at Percy without hesitation. He originally thought that after having the valuable experience of fighting together, Percy and Penello could get together. It seemed that it was just his own wishful thinking.

"Have you expected that they would break up?" Isobel raised her eyebrows slightly.

"If they want to get together, both parties need to learn to compromise and try to integrate into the other person's life, but Percy values ​​his career and future more." Albert said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"You are indeed much more accurate at judging people than I am."

Isobel kissed Albert again and turned to join Penello, planning to take advantage of this time to chat with him.

In fact, Penelo's situation is normal.

It's common for couples from Hogwarts to break up after graduating from school.

It was a special case that she and Albert got married just after graduation and were still happily married.

"Woman!"

Looking at the girls leaving, Albert sighed softly.

"We are not suitable. Penelo and I don't have much in common anymore, and I can't give her the life she wants... Moreover, I don't allow myself to stop."

Percy appeared out of nowhere, looking at the back of his ex-girlfriend as she left, and said sadly, "I'm actually very happy that Penelo can take the initiative to get rid of me. That might make her feel better."

"Do you need me to help you divine your love fortune?" Albert knew very well that Percy's words were specifically meant for him, but he was really not interested in other people's emotional problems. ….

"Forget it." Percy hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "I want to focus on my work now. Where do you think I should develop next."

"You don't have to worry about this. Everyone's future will definitely not be too bad. You must know that most people like to use their own people."

Albert couldn't remember what ministry Percy had served as minister in the end, and he didn't bother to waste energy on divination on this matter, so he made an excuse for himself.

“It’s actually very troublesome to accurately predict the future, and I have to pay for it.”

Percy reached into his pocket, and finally let out a helpless sigh: "It seems I will have to come to you for divination another day!"

"Okay, get out of here if you don't have money, don't waste our time here." Fred waved his hand at Percy in disgust, as if to ward off flies.

After watching Percy glare at the twins and turn away, Albert asked, "What's the matter?"

"Kingsley hopes that we can customize a batch of dark magic defense items for the Aurors, but you also know that the Ministry of Magic has no money right now and plans to buy them on credit first."

George talked about it in a hushed voice on the way to Hogwarts Castle.

"According to you, after Voldemort is completely killed, we need to strengthen the connection between the Defense Against the Dark Arts store and the Ministry of Magic."

"I know you want to make this money, but the risks and benefits of doing business need to be equal." Albert gave his own suggestion: "You can give the Ministry of Magic a 10% discount and ask them to pay a deposit in advance. It is also best not to place too many initial cooperation orders. After all, the war is over, and the Aurors do not need a large number of dark magic defense items to protect themselves. Once they do not need so many dark magic defense items, it will be very troublesome to try to return them. "

"We think so too, this is their request." Fred quickly took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and handed it to Albert.

"I have enough things to do now, but I don't have the time to help them design dark magic defense items." Albert didn't even glance at the parchment, he took it and stuffed it back into Fred's hands. pocket.

"Why do I think you are more leisurely than us?" The Weasley twins felt that Albert was simply too lazy to help with the design.

"I have to help check the restoration of the castle later. Do you want to go with me?" Albert stopped in front of the noisy oak door, intending to let Fred and George experience his busy work.

"Forget it, we have other things to do!"

Fred and George were obviously not interested in such boring work, so they found an excuse and ran away.

The repair work of Hogwarts was completed by employees dispatched by the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts professors, but the result was not very optimistic because the last battle caused great damage to the castle, and ordinary repair spells were very difficult to repair. It is difficult to completely restore this ancient magic castle.

"Kingsley is already helping to find professional wizards to take over the restoration work of the castle, but it will take some time. At present, we can only barely let the school recover for the time being." Professor Flitwick asked Albert to help more because Make sure nothing goes wrong before the celebration is over, and while that's unlikely, they still need to avoid that happening. ….

To this end, everyone was busy for most of the day and had in-depth discussions with so-called professionals about the restoration of Hogwarts.

Well, how should I put it.

The professional made Albert feel like a liar.

He felt that the effect of using the Elder Wand to release the repairing spell might be much better than his troublesome method.

After the brief technical exchange, Albert was called to a meeting by Principal McGonagall to discuss teaching issues for the next semester.

He couldn't find an excuse to refuse, because Albert was now a professor at Hogwarts.

"So, the school is going to let all students take another year?"

After getting the good news from Albert, Hermione couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She was really worried that the school would continue with the unfinished classes from last semester. If that were the case, it would be very difficult for her to come back and finish seventh grade.

"Actually, it's almost the same. For courses that most students have already taken, professors will most likely speed up the teaching. If you have time, it's best to review the knowledge points in the books. After all, you have chosen a lot of courses. .”

Albert still gave Hermione some advice, hoping that she would give up some unnecessary courses to reduce stress, but Hermione still stubbornly believed that she would not be overwhelmed by the pressure of study.

Albert expressed doubts about this and just hoped that the other party would not shed tears then.

"Anything else?"

Noticing the hesitant expression on Hermione's face, Albert asked knowingly.

"The... war is over."

"Oh, you plan to go to Australia to find your family?" Albert immediately said that he had not forgotten his agreement with her.

"Yes." Hermione hoped to discuss this matter with Albert, and she also knew that Albert would not break his promise.

"Wait a few days, and after I finish my work here, I will go to Australia with you to find your family." Albert took out his notebook and looked at the recent itinerary, then raised his head and said to Hermione.

"Thanks."

"I promised you." Albert hesitated for a moment, then reminded him, "However, your family may not be willing to return to the UK, so you have to be mentally prepared."

"They don't want to go back to England?" Hermione panicked.

"My family is like this. Since they went to the Far East, they don't really want to go back to the UK." Albert said helplessly about his family affairs.

"I don't know what your family's situation is now, but you have to be mentally prepared."

Hermione planned to find her family first. As for the situation Albert mentioned, she had no choice but to be mentally prepared in advance.

Although she didn't want to admit it, Hermione's intuition told her that it might be what Albert said in the end.

After all, they are not from the same world.

After Hermione herself graduates from Hogwarts, she will stay working in the wizarding world and her connections with the Muggle world will gradually diminish.

"Thank you."

Hermione hugged Albert gently, turned and walked away.

"You guys are really popular with girls as always!"

Looking at Hermione's hurried away figure, Cedric appeared out of nowhere and sighed softly: "However, teacher-student romance is prohibited in school."…

Albert naturally understood the meaning of his friend's words and said calmly, "You seem to have forgotten that I am married."

"You guy..." Cedric was a bit dumbfounded and reminded him kindly, "Don't forget, you are a big celebrity now. I bet those gossip reporters want to get some breaking news from you."

"They can make it up out of thin air. That's one of the troubles with being famous."

Albert had no expectations for the integrity of the reporters, "Let's go and see your office."

"It's our office," Cedric corrected.

"It's yours. I don't have a few classes a week, and I have no intention of staying at Hogwarts." Albert stretched out his hand to hold down Cedric, who was about to push the door directly into the room, and reminded: "You seem to have forgotten this place. Whose room was it?"

"It shouldn't be... right?"

Cedric didn't think anyone would be stupid, but for safety reasons, he took out his dragonhide gloves and put them on himself. He also used a spy device to poke the doorknob to make sure there was no dangerous black magic on it. .

In fact, there is indeed no black magic on the doorknob, but there are many dangerous black magic items placed on the bookcases in the room. Albert can easily identify them without poking them with a spy device.

"I really don't understand what's going on in that guy's head. Isn't he afraid that he will be tricked to death someday?"

"Perhaps, this is his special hobby, just like Mr. Weasley likes to collect Muggle batteries."

"That's not funny at all."

Cedric took the spy device and poked at those suspicious-looking places, turning his head and asking, "What are you going to do with these things?"

"Let Kenneth sell it on the black market!" Albert said without hesitation, "That guy is good at this, you just need to remember to give him his share."

"This is nothing like what you would say. You should not be short of money." Cedric was surprised that Albert did not intend to destroy these dark magic items, but planned to sell them on the black market.

"Destruction is a waste, and recycling is the best way. Believe me, packing the remaining stuff and throwing it to Mundungus may not be a bad choice."

"I don't think you should discuss illegal matters in front of an Auror." Cedric reminded Albert angrily that he was still an Auror.

"You are now a teaching assistant at the school." Albert waved his magic wand to conjure a box out of thin air and began to clean up the items in the room. "If you don't need the money, you can use it to buy teaching tools."

"You are very generous!"

Cedric is considering whether to hand over this batch of dark magic items to the Ministry of Magic.

"Because I am not short of money, but you are short of money." Albert reminded kindly, "The salary of a professor is not high. You are only a teaching assistant, so the salary is even lower."

"I'm on an Auror salary."

"Believe me, Auror is a dangerous job. No one wants to keep holding that position unless you don't plan to get married." Albert knew very well that Auror's salary is very high, but he also needs to bear certain risks, " Moreover, despite the high base salary of Aurors, more than half of it is used to purchase supplies for Aurors, and you probably won’t be able to get those galleons, which means that your salary may be reduced by more than half.”….

Cedric frowned and said, "You know very well?"

"Because that's the advice I gave Scrimgeour. Otherwise, how do you think that guy recruited so many Aurors during his tenure?" Albert laughed at himself, "With just a few galleons a month, do you expect others to rely solely on it?" Are you willing to fight for the Ministry of Magic with all your passion?"

"No wonder Kingsley always wanted you to be his senior adviser." Even Cedric had to admit that Albert was right.

He does not deny that there are indeed people who are willing to fight for lofty ideals, but such wizards are only a handful.

After the two packed up their things, they went to Alecto Carlo's room for a walk. They didn't find many valuable things in the Death Eater's room.

In fact, most of Alecto Carlo's wealth is buried in a secret place waiting for Albert to dig out, so he really is not short of money.

As for plundering the dark wizard's wealth, Albert really has no psychological burden at all. It is normal to kill monsters and explode gold coins. What's more, the brothers Amycus and Alecto of the Carlo family are gone. Throwing Long directly into the Gringotts vault is the most extravagant waste.

After simply cleaning up the inheritance of the two Death Eaters, the two rushed to the auditorium in a hurry. Tonight's celebration banquet was about to begin. A large number of students who had rushed back to school in the morning poured into the auditorium and occupied all the long tables in the college. full.

Looking at the various colored curtains hanging on the wall behind the staff desk, Cedric muttered, "I thought it would be black."

"Tonight is the celebration banquet, and the UU Reading www.uukanshu.net memorial service has already been held in the morning." Albert walked towards the staff table under the gaze of people.

“It felt really inconsistent to be packed into the same day.”

Cedric muttered and went to the long table of Hufflepuff. He had already seen several familiar people waving in this direction.

"I heard you were planning to stay in school."

Truman looked away from the staff table, envious of Cedric's career plan.

"That's only temporary." Cedric lowered his voice and said another thing, "I heard that Kingsley recruited a large number of people from Dumbledore's Army for trial training."

"Yes, the number is quite astonishing." Truman shrugged. "I just don't know how many people can persist. Aurors make a lot of money, but they are also quite dangerous. Especially in this period, it is probably quite difficult."
