With the official face-to-face with Dumbledore, Zhang Cheng immediately felt the pervasive hostility around him when he returned to school.

Whether it was Snape, who had a very bad relationship before, and other professors who usually maintained a neutral attitude, they all adopted an isolated attitude, and even did not refuse to greet each other.

Maybe if you change to someone else, you will have complicated psychological changes, and even can't stand such a living environment and voluntarily resign.

Unfortunately, Zhang Cheng didn't care about any of this, and instead encouraged his two students, Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy, to take the initiative to show their talents and establish a high prestige among the students.

After all, Hogwarts is a school of witchcraft and wizardry, and the most important thing is not the professors at all, but these students, who are hailed as the future of British wizarding.

As long as they can be dealt with, they can influence the attitudes of the parents behind them, and thus change the attitude of public opinion and the bureaucrats of the Ministry of Magic.

That's why, I couldn't wait for Lido to refuse to be the Minister of Magic, and hid here as the headmaster, and he did it for half a century.

Fortunately, this bloodless fighting lasted only a little more than a month before a truce was declared.

Of course, it is not because the conflict between the two sides has been alleviated, but that the whole semester is over, and all students take the express train home to enjoy a relaxing and enjoyable summer vacation.

Disgusted with the Dursleys, Harry Potter did not return to the home where he had lived for twelve years, but instead chose to accept Draco's invitation to spend the entire holiday at Malfoy Manor.

I have to say that this is really full of irony, and it also makes Albus Dumbledore angry enough.

It wasn't long ago that Lucius had united the school board and Ministry of Magic officials with his brilliant political skills to severely limit his rights as a headmaster, especially to weaken the power to appoint personnel and control finances.

Taking advantage of the fact that the old man was busy appeasing the professors' uneasiness and dealing with the messy trivial matters in the school, Zhang Cheng easily got rid of the little tail that followed him, and came directly to the door of a house that looked very ordinary on the surface, raised his hand and knocked lightly.

Bang! Bang!

After a few taps on the wood, a white woman who looked to be thirty-four years old opened the door and asked in a rather polite voice, "Hello, sir, may I ask for any help?"

"Hello, Mrs. Granger. I'm Hermione's professor, is she at home right now?" Zhang Cheng politely bowed to show his intentions.

"Professor?!" the woman paused for a moment, then quickly reacted and covered her mouth in surprise. "Oh, my God! you...... You're a wizard, I'm sorry, come in, Hermione is upstairs in the room. ”

"Thank you very much!" Zhang Cheng said politely, and walked into this house full of British style.

But before he could sit down, Hermione's mother shouted at the top of her voice, "Granger, come down, there's a professor at school looking for you!"

"What...... What?!"

The companion screamed in surprise, and the girl in a casual T-shirt and denim shorts quickly ran down the stairs.

When she saw who it was, her pupils suddenly contracted.

After all, what happened in the tree hole more than a month ago, she still remembers it vividly, and even occasionally has nightmares.

"Looks like you're having a good holiday. How about it, would you mind talking to me alone?" asked Zhang Cheng with a smile.

Hermione obviously hesitated, but finally nodded slightly: "Okay!"

"Then you talk, I'll go out for a walk first, and I'll be back in half an hour. ”

When her mother saw this, she immediately picked up a coat and planned to go out for a walk to make room for privacy between the two.

Seeing her mother gradually walking away, the girl raised her head and asked in a not very sure tone, "Professor, what do you want to talk to me about first?"

"Quite simply, I want you to join my side like Harry. In return, I can teach you about esoteric magic that Hogwarts will never learn, and protect your parents from future wars. Zhang Cheng did not hide his consciousness at all, and generously stated his conditions.

Because as he studied the power of creation, he felt more and more that he needed an assistant.

Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy obviously don't have the talent to do so, so he has to target Miss Jack-of-all-trades.

It is not difficult to see from her academic performance that Hermione is very talented in theory and research, and she is a near-perfect candidate.

"War?!" the girl's eyes widened in surprise, as if she couldn't believe that she could hear such a terrible word from the mouth of a professor.

"Yes, war, war in the magical world!" Zhang Cheng replied in the affirmative. "You should know that the history of mankind is a history of war, especially the war in the wizarding world, which has never stopped. The ambitious Voldemort, in particular, is not really dead, he is planning to return and start a new war. At that time, the British wizarding world will be divided in two, either joining Dumbledore against Voldemort, or joining Voldemort to start a revolution and destroy everything that exists and establish a new order. I am the only one who is qualified to shelter some people with neutrality. ”

"Why are you telling me this, and what is your purpose?" Hermione shuddered, undoubtedly knowing for the first time that this was hidden behind the scenes.

"I need you, exactly, you need your talent to assist me in a great study. And can you bear to watch your parents die in murder, or to erase their memories once and for all to avoid danger, and to immerse yourself in misery for the rest of your life? A silver light flashed in Zhang Cheng's pupils, and through his psychic ability, he began to exert an influence on the other party's brain.

In just a few seconds, Hermione seemed to see the bleak scene of the future separation from her parents, and she couldn't help but shed tears.

When she returned to reality, she quickly wiped away her tears, bit her lower lip and replied in a categorical tone: "No! I will never let that happen! I promise your terms, Professor." ”

"Awesome! I promise you won't regret the choice you made. Here's a copy of the experimental data, and your first task is to find ambiguous patterns from the chaotic results. As long as you finish this quest before school starts, then I will give you two amulets, enough to protect the life of the wearer. ”

With that, Zhang Cheng stood up and took out a tissue, gently wiped the girl's tears, and then left a thick notebook to cast a teleportation magic and disappear in place.

He knew very well that as soon as he opened the lab notebook, Hermione would be immediately drawn to the contents.

It's human nature to be curious and explore the unknown, and some people are particularly obvious in this regard, and Miss "Jack-of-all-trades" is one of them.
