Chapter 65: Malfoy's Invitation

A few days later, while Severus was eating breakfast in his office, an owl flew in.

Now Severus has moved out of the Room of Requirement, and at first lived there because Professor Slughorn had not yet left, and at that time, Zhang Jin didn't want to find an office to live in, and he didn't want to be watched and discussed by students in the school, plus he had just come to a new world and had a certain need for privacy, so he lived in the Room of Requirement first.

After Professor Slughorn left, although Dumbledore did not explicitly say that he wanted Severus to move out, it was still obvious that he had asked Severus to take over as Potions professor in his office a few days ago, and there should be a hint that he would move out.

To be honest, both Severus and Zhang Jin are very annoyed by this kind of way of speaking without penetration, this kind of language art that needs to be comprehended by oneself is really not liked, but the superiors prefer this kind of tone, just say it halfway, you can understand it yourself.

Comprehend the right, that's what you should, at most praise you for having understanding and being able to do things, once you understand wrong, the errand goes wrong, then the pot will definitely be deducted on your own head, when the leader will not admit that it was hinted at that time, he will say that this is all your own blind speculation.

The same applies to the treatment of girlfriends, I believe there must be a lot of people who have been mutilated by this!

Severus' current office is the one next to the Potions classroom in the original books, which was originally an abandoned classroom and later turned into the Potions professor's office.

While a classroom office would be large enough to be used as an office for another professor, it would be a mistake to make it an office for another professor, but it still doesn't meet the needs of a Potions professor.

Just like this office, from the door, you can see that the wall is lined with shelves, most of which are filled with various bottles and jars, which contain some potion materials that need to be sealed, and some are tissue parts from magical creatures, or even whole specimens.

Also because of the preservation of various materials, Severus's office is a little cold, coupled with the cellar and the specimens placed in the house, the first time I came in, I really felt like I had stepped into the lair of an evil wizard, but it looked a little crazy.

However, not all of the potions materials on the shelves were available, including many of the more convenient and inexpensive materials in the Potions classroom, while the more valuable materials were kept in Severus' private storage room.

The storage room was in the secret door opposite the entrance, and in front of it was Severus's desk, and on the shelves near it were some magic books and some potions.

Only one step away from the desk, there are two short tables side by side, which are used to prepare and boil potions, and there are several crucibles on the workbench, and the shelves next to them are all utensils for boiling potions, such as crucibles of various materials and models, scales of different sizes, and knives with different functions, etc., from the perspective of utensils, they are still relatively old, and there are not so many glassware in the later period, it seems that those should be added later.

On the other side of the desk, next to the pantry, there is a secret door, where is the bedroom, and the only place where Severus has privacy.

There is no privacy in this office, as long as the door can be opened, you can enter, and even enter Severus's private storage room, which is why Severus's potion materials are often stolen, not because Severus is mismanaged, but sometimes other professors may need to come here to find some materials or utensils, such as Madam Pomfrey in the infirmary occasionally comes to look for things.

Because of this, Severus desperately wanted to change to a larger office, just like Professor Slughorn in the original books, and the first condition that the guy put forward when he returned to Hogwarts was to change to a larger office.

This is actually related to the fact that the Slytherin Dean's office was not found, the other three houses have their own Dean's Office, but Slytherin does not, so whether it is Severus or Slughorn, and the previous Slytherin Dean, they are actually like Umbridge who can't enter the Headmaster's Office, because they can't find the entrance to the Slytherin Dean's Office, so they can only find a place to live temporarily!

This is actually the reason why the deans of Slytherin House are sometimes not respected by Slytherin, and in the opinion of some, this is because Slytherin does not recognize these deans.

And in fact it was from Salazar. After Slytherin, the Dean's office vanished, presumably hidden by Salazar himself, like the Chamber of Secrets.

I just don't know if I can find it, after all, it didn't appear in the original books, but Slytherin's headmaster's office should be the most magnificent, Salazar. Slytherin is not one to treat himself badly.

The entire Potions classroom, including Severus's office, as well as the Slytherin common room and the Slytherin students' dormitories, are all located in the underground of Hogwarts, which originally belonged to the castle dungeon, but how big can a dungeon be? Even after the expansion of the Big Four, its size was insufficient, and it was for this reason that Salazar extended many parts of Slytherin to the bottom of the Black Lake, and this part was extended.

And if the Slytherin Dean's office is here, it should probably be next to it, and further in the direction of the castle is the sewer system, as everyone knows, it is the place where the basilisk is active, and the office should be next to it.

You can wait until you find a way to prevent the basilisk from petrifying, and no one wants a small one if you have a big office, especially if this office is going to be very inconvenient for some dangerous potions research.

And because the office is in the cellar, the owl actually flew out of the fireplace, thanks to Severus's habit of lighting the fireplace.

The letter was sent by Lucius, and it didn't say much, it looked like congratulating Severus on accepting Slytherin, and the owls used were not from Malfoy's, in line with the other party's usual caution.

At the end of the letter, Joseverus went to Malfoy Manor two days later, and it is estimated that this sentence is the most important, and the others are some polite words.

Now Malfoy has also crawled out of the shadow of Voldemort's downfall, according to the other party's style, it is estimated that he will not be idle again, no, he must want to discuss what to do next.
