The next morning, after having breakfast early. Ryan and Hermione went straight to Professor McGonagall's office. The whole corridor was quiet at this time. Only the sound of Ryan's feet on the stone slabs was tapping.

"I always feel a little sad!" Hermione suddenly stood there, reaching out her hand and touching the stone sculpture of the little monster on the handrail of the staircase. "It's been six years, and we're going to get out of here now. ”

"No, we could have stayed in the castle for a long time. Ryan said. "Don't forget, I'm the Governor of Hogwarts and have the right to live in the castle. I've seen it before, and behind a bunch of empty classrooms on the third floor is a special accommodation for school managers. It's a big place, and I'm sure it'll be very comfortable to live in after the elves have cleaned up. ”

"Uh, I didn't mean that, forget it-" Hermione was about to walk forward when Ryan suddenly grabbed her, "Just kidding you, I know what you mean, by the way, here's a gift for you." ”

With that, Ryan took out a small favorite from his space bag and handed it to Hermione. Hermione took the collection and flipped through it, and the first thing she saw was a few pieces of parchment, old and new, with gilded letters and numbers on them.

"It's- Hogwarts Express tickets!" After taking a serious look, Hermione immediately recognized what was in the folder: all the tickets from first year to this year.

"This gift is fantastic, thank you!" Hermione carefully put away the clip in her hand. "Thank you for helping me keep these wonderful memories. ”

After this episode, two men knocked on the door and walked into Professor McGonagall's office. Professor McGonagall continued to deal with the mountain of papers as usual, and when she found them in, Professor McGonagall put down what she was doing and looked up.

"It's great to see my students pass this exam with flying colors and get their certificates. Professor McGonagall said as she removed the glasses from her face. "Fortunately, there are two of you, otherwise if none of them passed, I would have been ashamed to talk about this when I met with other professors. ”

After praising Ryan and the two of them, the conversation got to the point. Professor McGonagall asked, clearing her throat slightly. "Ryan, Hermione. Can you tell me what you plan to do when you get your exam certificate? ”

"We wanted to stay at Hogwarts for the time being and run our shop, because we found that the products we produced a while ago played a big role in the fight against the Death Eaters, and we felt that if those things were better, maybe they would have played a bigger role, and more people would have survived the war. ”

"Oh, that's a good direction for employment. Professor McGonagall nodded. "But Professor Dumbledore asked me to tell you that he wanted you to work for the Ministry of Magic for a while—"

With that, the professor reached out and stopped Hermione, who was about to say something. "Of course, I know it's a waste and a fool to have you two go to the Ministry of Magic to do those paperwork. But Professor Dumbledore is not looking for you that kind of job. ”

Professor McGonagall opened a piece of parchment with a blank letter of appointment from the Ministry of Magic. The above is to hire a person to serve as a special officer in the Department of International Magical Cooperation of the Ministry of Magic.

"This job is only a very small subsidy, so you don't need to go to the Ministry of Magic every day, so it won't interfere with your arrangements. What Headmaster Dumbledore means is that it will be a little easier for you to do certain things after you have this title. Professor McGonagall explained. "As for the specific situation, you can go to the Ministry of Magic in Hogsmeade and ask for it, and then you can decide. ”

"Okay, then we'll go to the Ministry of Magic in the afternoon and ask. Ryan nodded in agreement, and after listening to Professor McGonagall talk about her work experience at the beginning, Ryan and the others quit. Because Professor McGonagall still had a lot of work to do, Ryan and the others weren't fit to stay here for too long.

"Are you leaving Hogwarts soon?" asked Hermione, who was sitting across from hermione, whispered to Hermione as she ate at noon. "Does that mean I won't be able to see you for the rest of the semester?"

"Of course not. Hermione explained. "Just as your father is now a Hogwarts regent, Ryan is now a Hogwarts regent. As a school manager, they have some special rights, such as having their own room in the school castle, and being able to enjoy the same house-elf services as the professor. ”

"Is this true?" Ron's eyes widened. "Why didn't I ever know this? My mom and dad didn't tell me. ”

"That's because there's a restrictive clause. Ryan said to Ron, "The terms stipulate that only the school board and the person designated by the school board will be able to enjoy these benefits if they are not Hogwarts students. ”

"What does that mean, the person appointed by the school board?" asked Harry, too, as he leaned in, interested. As an orphan, he actually regarded Hogwarts as his home, and Draco Malfoy's domineering appearance when Malfoy's father was the school director, so Harry was naturally interested in the news related to the school director.

"Virtually every Hogwarts Trustee has two places to live in the castle, including their own. Ryan explained. In addition to the school manager himself, the school manager can also designate his immediate family members to use these two places to enjoy the life of the school director in the castle. In any case, one trustee's seat can only accommodate two people living in the castle. ”

"That's what it looks like. Harry, Ron, and Ginny nodded together in realization. Then Ron said, "So at least for the rest of the year, we'll be able to see you two in the castle?"

"That's right. Ryan nodded. "We'll be living at the end of the row of empty classrooms on the third floor behind Lockhart's office, where there's a lion carved into a wall with a house for the school trustees. When the time comes, if you want to find us, go there and strike the lion's left paw with your wand, and if we are there, we will open the door for you. ”

"Can't you come to the common room in the future?" asked Ron, curious.

"Yes. Hermione nodded. "According to the notice we just received from Professor McGonagall, we will be graduating from Hogwarts after obtaining our exam certificates. According to the rules, after graduation, we are not allowed to enter the common rooms of each college without the consent of the dean or president of each college. This is for security reasons as well as a range of issues. ”

"Then I'll look for you then, don't you leave the door open!" Ginny said to Hermione, who nodded repeatedly that she would never forget her best friend even after graduation.

As the two girls whispered, Ryan whispered to Harry. "Harry, has that magical ritual been going on in your headmaster's office these last few days?"

"It went very well. Harry replied quickly, then said with some hesitation. "There's one place I don't know why I feel like I'm starting to have an unprecedented connection with that black straw man?

"Well, then you don't have to worry!" Ryan comforted, shaking his hand at Harry. "That's part of magic, and it's because of the special bond between you and that person that Headmaster Dumbledore and I chose you to complete the next magical steps. In short, this connection is an indispensable part of magic. ”

"That's what it looks like, then I know. Harry seemed to be a little more relaxed, and it seemed that the feeling that the magic had given him a few days ago had really put a lot of pressure on him. This time, after getting a positive answer from Ryan, I finally put my mind at ease.
