After relaying the news he had received from the Dementors, Kyle prepared to leave the Headmaster's office, not caring what Dumbledore would do with it.

After all, he didn't know the location of the sixty Dementors, and no one would tell him, even if he wanted to, he couldn't help.

But just as he opened the door and was about to leave, Dumbledore's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Wait a minute."

"Anything else? Headmaster. Kyle asked.

Dumbledore's expression was a little strange, and he opened his mouth again and again, and finally shook his head, "No, it didn't...... I just wanted to say that I'm probably going to be out for a while from tomorrow.

"Oh, Fawkes, I'll take it too."

At this point, Dumbledore was suddenly stunned, in fact, he didn't understand why he added this sentence...... Maybe he was worried that Kyle would find another reason to borrow the phoenix, so he subconsciously wanted to refuse first.

However, Dumbledore did not pause for long, and quickly continued: "If you have something urgent to find me, go to Hogsmeade's Hogsmeade's Hog's Head Bar, I know you have a way to sneak through. ”

"Just to deal with the Dementors?" Kyle asked, somewhat curious.

There were only over sixty Dementors in total, so Dumbledore wouldn't have wasted too much time.

And since the news of Voldemort's resurgence was made public, there has been panic in the castle, thanks to Dumbledore's presence.

He is away from school now, especially if he disappears for a long time, which will also cause some bad effects in the school.

"Not entirely because of the Dementors." Dumbledore said, "I still need to meet someone, and a memory of him might give us a crucial clue?" ”

"Who?" Kyle asked casually, not expecting an answer.

But unexpectedly, Dumbledore didn't mean to hide it, and immediately said, "Bob Ogden." ”

Kyle thought about it, and when he realized that he didn't know him, he didn't care, just thought that he was a hidden member of some Order of the Phoenix.

After all, the Order of the Phoenix is so large that Kyle can't remember everyone, just like that Stojee, even if he is standing here at this moment, Kyle may not be able to recognize the other party.

"Then I wish you all the best, Professor."

"It's the same."

After exiting the principal's office, Kyle made his way to the common room, and as he walked through the foyer, he suddenly noticed a large crowd in front of the bulletin board.

Strange, what is the announcement at this time......

Out of curiosity, Kyle subconsciously walked over.

"Oh, Kyle......" someone said hello.

In an instant, the entire foyer fell silent, and at the same time, everyone's eyes were on it.

This was the first time Kyle had experienced this situation, and he didn't react for a while, standing there and asking, "What's wrong with you guys today?" ”

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, no one spoke, and finally a Hufflepuff said hesitantly: "Uh...... I think you'd better see for yourself......"

As her words fell, the students standing between Kyle and the bulletin board stepped back in both directions, making way for them.

Kyle didn't hesitate and walked briskly.

A brand new notice was posted on the bulletin board:

【Ministry of Magic Award Notice】

When he saw this title, Kyle was quite happy, the whole school of the Ministry of Magic announced the reward, which is quite a face-showing thing, and I don't know who is so lucky......

Then he saw his name.

But that's not the point, the point is the next paragraph.

"Kyle Chopper, a sixth-year Hufflepuff student, submitted an application for a job with the Ministry of Magic some time ago.

Although he himself was not of age to serve, the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts jointly decided to give him a special admission award due to his many important clues during the resurrection of the mysterious man and his act of saving Harry Potter from the Death Eaters in the face of death.

"Officially inaugurated today as Assistant Senior Minister (Intern) to the Ministry of Magic, and President of the Hogwarts Boys' Student Council.

"Also: During this special time, the Ministry of Magic will work with Hogwarts to welcome every outstanding student who is interested in employment, regardless of their age, and we will seriously consider it."

[Signed: Minister for Magic, Cornelius Oswald Fudge.]

Headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore]

After reading all the contents of the announcement, Kyle only felt the green muscles on his head jump suddenly.

When did he submit an application for employment to the Ministry of Magic......

Kyle just wanted Dumbledore to be the Minister, but he didn't want to go to the Ministry of Magic himself...... Now in this case, his task has been accomplished.

And Dumbledore's signature has a few meanings, can't he see that this is the Ministry of Magic digging the corner of Hogwarts?

No way!

Kyle didn't hesitate, and immediately turned around and ran back to the eighth floor, in front of the dripping spout stone.

"Hairy Tooth Mints!" Kyle said the order.

Surprisingly, however, the stone beast did not react at all.

Kyle shouted again, and it was still the same.

Apparently, in the few minutes he had been away, Dumbledore had already changed the password.

Kyle read the names of the other candies and almost memorized Duke Honey's purchase slip, but the stone beast seemed to be welded to the ground, not moving.

Kyle stood still, he had a hunch that it might not just be a password change, but even Dumbledore might have left the school by this time.

With Fox here, it's not too convenient for him to go out.

With this in mind, Kyle hurried down another hallway and stopped at the door of Professor McGonagall's office.

He knocked on the door.

"Kyle?" Professor McGonagall opened the door and asked curiously, "Is there anything you have to do here?" ”

"That's right...... Kyle said quickly, "I have something important to ask Professor Dumbledore, but the headmaster's password seems to have changed." ”

"Ah, that's right......" Professor McGonagall's expression changed slightly.

Because just a minute ago, Dumbledore had been standing in Kyle's place, and had told her with a solemn face that he couldn't tell Kyle the Headmaster's command under any circumstances.

"Can you tell me the new password?"

"It's not a coincidence." Professor McGonagall pursed her lips, the muscles in her cheeks darting back and forth, and she couldn't help laughing, "The Headmaster has a very important business to do, and he left the school a minute ago. ”

"Ran away?" Kyle took a few deep breaths.

"Come in first." Professor McGonagall opened the door and waited for Kyle to walk in before asking, "Do you have anything to do with the Headmaster?" ”

"About that inauguration announcement in the foyer." Kyle said, "I didn't get any news at all before today. ”

"Oh, I see." Professor McGonagall smiled and said, "The Headmaster made a point of saying that this is what he should do, and there is no need to thank him......"

"Thanks?" Kyle couldn't help but raise his voice.

"yes." "He says assistant minister is a good job with a good salary, and he's happy to see students who are in that position before they graduate and offer some small help."

"Oh, he also asked me to tell you that you must keep your heart and contribute more to the wizarding world."

"Hehe......" Kyle chuckled twice, "but Professor McGonagall, and the last paragraph of the announcement is clearly digging into the corner of Hogwarts, you don't care?" ”

"No, you're wrong." Professor McGonagall shook her head, "Hogwarts is just a school, and when students graduate, they always have to work in different places, including the Ministry of Magic.

"So in my opinion, this decision is not only not inappropriate, but it is the best decision in recent years."

This......

Kyle was a little speechless, but when he thought about it, it seemed that he was.

The reason why Fudge did this was undoubtedly to tie himself to his side, and by the way, recruit more outstanding students, so as to increase his prestige.

If Dumbledore really wanted to be a minister, this decision would not be beneficial to him, but if only in terms of the status of the headmaster, it would be a different matter.

As Professor McGonagall said, students can find good jobs before they graduate, and if they are too late to be happy, how can they object?

"Is there anything else you can do?" Professor McGonagall asked.

"Nope."

"In that case, let's go back quickly." She smiled and said, "I think your friends have already gotten the news and are waiting to celebrate you." ”

Kyle sighed and left the office.

Things were the same as Professor McGonagall thought.

When he returned to the foyer, a large crowd had been waiting for him early in the morning, and when he saw Kyle, he immediately gathered around him.

"Haha, Senior Assistant Minister, that's good......" Fred slapped Kyle on the shoulder.

"Percy's stupid guy has been graduating for so long, and he has only just become an assistant minister......"

"And it was only by betraying his family that he got to this position......"

George said, "Some time ago he didn't slander Dumbledore a lot, and said that our support for Dumbledore was affecting his promotion, and he had a big fight with his parents about it. ”

"Mom was sad about this for days......"

"If he knew that you had become his boss before he graduated, he would have been mad with jealousy."

"Don't say that." Kyle shook his head, "It's just an internship, maybe I'll be removed tomorrow." ”

"Impossible." Tonks walked over from not far away, "That's just because you haven't graduated yet, just like I did, if you graduate, you'll be a natural senior assistant to the minister." ”

Kyle rubbed his forehead, "Good news, that's bad news......

"Anyway, you and Umbridge are both 'senior', who has a higher position?" Fred asked curiously.

"There's no comparison." "Umbridge is the deputy secretary, and the only one who is higher than him is the minister," Tonks said.

"But Kyle is not bad, the senior assistant minister has been able to participate in some important decisions in the ministry, and can even make some less important personnel changes when the minister is busy."

She looked at Kyle with burning eyes, "How about transferring me back to the Auror office, you have this power now......"

Kyle just ignored her as if he didn't hear it.

This made Tonks so angry that his hair turned red, and he viciously said that he was going to trouble Kyle in the next class, which caused a burst of laughter around him.

Kyle narrowed his eyes at Fred and George, who were smiling the most.

He remembered that Mrs. Weasley had always wanted them to work in the Ministry of Magic, that they were all brothers, and that now that he was capable, there was no reason not to take care of them.

Kyle decides that he will write to Mrs. Weasley when he returns and discuss letting them work at the Ministry of Magic.

He had all the positions he had in mind, and like Mr. Weasley, he was in the Department of Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items.

As a senior assistant minister, it was too simple to recruit two people into such a trivial matter.

And Cedric...... He was smiling a lot, so come in, Mr. Diggory would have been willing to work with his son.

Inexplicably, Fred and George only felt cold, but they didn't pay much attention to it, just continued to laugh as the cold wind blowing in from outside.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the foyer.

Harry, Hermione, and Ron also saw the announcement.

Ron looked at Kyle, who was surrounded by everyone, pouted and said, "It's not fair, speaking of providing clues...... Harry, you've contributed a lot more than Kyle, haven't you?

You've been clinging to the news of the mystery man's comeback, why is the Ministry of Magic only rewarding him. ”

"Don't say that." Harry shook his head, "Kyle really saved me, and the Ministry of Magic deserves to reward him." ”

Ron didn't seem to listen, muttering quietly, "Another Percy...... Only an idiot like him would want to work at the Ministry of Magic. ”

"The salary of the senior assistant minister is one hundred and fifty Galleons per month." At this time, Hermione said suddenly.

"How much?" Ron's eyes widened immediately.

"One hundred and fifty Galleons, about the same as the deputy director." Hermione flipped through the newspaper in her hand, "This is today's Daily Prophet, and it has more details. ”

Ron snatched the newspaper from him, and his face turned bright.

He couldn't imagine how cheerful he would be if he could get a salary of one hundred and fifty Galleons a month.

"Harry, you said we were writing to the Ministry of Magic now, is it too late?"

"I'm afraid it's too late." Harry shrugged, he still had a lot of Galleons in his vault, but he didn't care much about the Ministry of Magic's salary.

"But you can try, maybe there's a chance, didn't the announcement say that they welcome every student?"

"Forget it." Ron struggled for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't want to work with Percy, I'd be crazy, and the Ministry of Magic has slandered you before, and I dare say there aren't many people in the school who want to join them......"

With that, he was about to return the newspaper to Hermione, but when he turned around, he found Hermione staring intently at the announcement.

"Wait." Ron wondered, "Hermione, you don't want to sign up......

"That's right, I want to work for the Ministry of Magic." Hermione said firmly.

"Why?" Ron didn't understand, "Not long ago, the Ministry of Magic thought we were crazy and refused to admit that the mysterious people were resurrected, so how could you be on their side!" ”

"That's all in the past, isn't it?" Hermione said, "At least for now, we're on the side. ”

"What about Umbridge." Ron said, "She's also from the Ministry of Magic. ”

"One Umbridge doesn't represent the Ministry of Magic, Mr. Weasley, Tonks also works for the Ministry of Magic, but they're fine." Hermione said, "And there are a lot of things in the wizarding world right now that are unreasonable, like the attitude of wizards towards house-elves...... Only by entering the Ministry of Magic can it be possible to change all that. ”

"House-elves?" Ron couldn't help but interrupt her, "I thought you had given up on that plan to save the elves!" ”

"It's the House Elf Rights Initiative." Hermione corrected, "And I just put it on hold for the time being, and I didn't give up." ”

"You know it's impossible." Ron said, "House-elves love to work. ”

"But that doesn't mean they like to be called around roughly, like a house-elf in the kitchen, a simple thank you can make them happy for many days."

Hermione continued, "Kyle is right, I'm not going in the right direction, and I should urge everyone to be kind to house-elves like Harry did to Dobby.

"But it's also difficult, people don't listen to a student, and you only have a chance to enter the Ministry of Magic."

"I've got your back." Harry smiled and said, "You're the first in your grade, there's no reason for the Ministry of Magic to turn you away, maybe you can be the same as Kyle as the senior assistant minister." ”

"Thank you." "But I'd rather work in the Law Enforcement Division." ”

"I want to be an Auror." "But my grades may not be so easy to pass." ”

Ron looked at his two friends and blinked a little dazedly, he didn't understand why Harry wanted to join the Ministry of Magic after being slandered by Fudge and Umbridge for so long.

He felt as if he had become the only outsider.

"Okay." He shrugged, "Since you're all saying that, I'll join in too." ”
