Chapter 634: The New Female Dormitory Manager at Hogwarts

Mike and Harry chatted and laughed for a while, and Mike stopped joking only after Harry was completely relaxed.

He straightened his body and said to Harry:

"So when are you going to leave? When you leave..."

"Do you even need to ask?" Harry stood up and said, "Of course now! Leaving now!"

"Ah? Uh... That's not impossible. It's just that your textbooks and stuff..."

Mike's words were interrupted again. Harry made a 'wait' gesture, and then took out a bunch of textbooks and potions equipment from his invisible stretch pocket at lightning speed.

"I've actually prepared the textbooks and other things a long time ago. You know, I've been thinking about going to Hogwarts to study again since the beginning."

Seeing Harry's determined look, Mike was speechless. He nodded, stood up and took out his wand and said,

"In that case, let's go now."

"Wait!" Harry raised his hand to stop him again, "Professor Snape also wants to go back to Hogwarts to continue teaching Potions. Why don't you take him back with you?"

Mike was stunned again when he heard this, and instinctively turned his head to look at the stairs, and saw Snape and Ms. Kate hiding at the stairs and secretly looking at them.

Snape's expression was a little unhappy, which was obviously caused by the silent barrier.

Mike sighed, lifted the silent barrier and waved to let the two of them come over.

After the two of them walked in, Mike continued to say to Snape:

"I heard from Harry that you want to continue to teach at Hogwarts?"

"Oh! There are so many places where I hope to help, but I didn't say I must go to Hogwarts!"

Snape said with his arms folded across his chest, and seeing this, Mike grinned and said:

"So that's the case, then I won't bother you, anyway, Professor Slughorn also told me that he can still teach for a few more years."

"You..."

Snape was anxious, and at the same time, the smile on Mike's face became brighter.

For some reason, he now likes to see Snape's look of being furious but unable to do anything with him.

After leaving Snape alone for a while, Mike said,

"You are free to go wherever you want. Anyway, your surveillance period should be over now. But if you want to go to Hogwarts, I must let you know one thing, that is, you are not irreplaceable, and this matter is not something you and I can decide. Whether to recruit you depends on Professor Flitwick's opinion. So, are you still willing to go now?"

Mike's words made Snape a little angry, and his face turned green and red, which was very ugly.

If it were according to Snape's original character, he would definitely refuse this matter, but looking at Harry's expectant eyes, he finally nodded as if possessed by a ghost.

"Okay, since you agreed, then I can naturally take you there."

Mike clapped his hands and turned his gaze to Harry. There were some things he wanted to say just now, but it was a pity that he was interrupted all the time.

But before he could speak, another voice sounded from the side.

"That... Mr. Mike Townley..."

This time it was Ms. Kate who interrupted him. Mike was quite respectful of this maid. Hearing this, he sighed and said, trying to suppress his anger at being interrupted one after another:

"Oh! By the way! I almost forgot about you. I'm so sorry, Ms. Kate. Snape's return to Hogwarts means your current job is over. You can choose to take a break for a while and wait for our notice. Please don't worry about unemployment. We will arrange a better job for you."

Mike deliberately emphasized the last sentence and cast his eyes on Snape.

This made Snape's breathing become more rapid.

"Um... Mr. Mike Townley, in fact, I have my own opinion on my job." Ms. Kate rubbed her hands and said, "I mean, can I also go to Hogwarts to work?"

As soon as this was said, the other three people present all showed black question mark faces.

Seeing this, Ms. Kate hurriedly explained:

"Of course I know that most of the chores at Hogwarts are done by house-elves, and I, a Squib, cannot afford other more difficult tasks. But isn't there a Squib employee in Hogwarts? So I think..."

"So you want to grab Filch's job?"

Harry asked, which scared Ms. Kate. She hurriedly shook her head and said:

"No, no, no! Of course I don't think so..."

"No! You can think so!" Harry held Kate's hand and said excitedly, "We have had enough of Filch a long time ago. I dare say that if you can really replace Filch, the whole Hogwarts will cheer for it!"

"Is... is it?"

Ms. Kate said a little unconfidently, while her eyes kept glancing at Mike.

She knew very well that Mike was the only one who could make the final decision on this matter.

Mike was naturally well aware of Kate's little thoughts, but now he was not interested in teasing the two of them anymore, so he just snapped his fingers and said:

"Okay, I can take you with me, but it's the same, whether you can be admitted depends on Professor Flitwick."

"Thank you! Thank you!"

Ms. Kate kept bowing to express her gratitude, but Mike did not look at her. Instead, he turned his head and said to Harry:

"Harry, I have one more thing to tell you before you go to Hogwarts, Harry. That is about your Death Cloak, I decided..."

"No need to say more!" Harry waved his hand to interrupt, "I know what you mean, Mike. Just put the Death Cloak here for now, I have no objection!"

"Damn it! Can't you all just let me finish what I want to say?"

Mike finally exploded, which frightened the three people present, even Snape was no exception.

Seeing that everyone had finally quieted down, Mike nodded, slowed down his speech and emphasized:

"Harry, I want to say that you should keep the Death Cloak for the time being. After all, it is a relic left to you by your father. But you also have to promise that if we need it, you must take out the Death Cloak as soon as possible."

Harry looked at Mike for a long time with a "that's it" expression, and then said:

"Actually... I feel relieved to leave it with you..."

"Okay! It's decided! Let's go!"

Mike stuffed the Death Cloak into Harry's arms, and then waved his wand and pulled Harry and the others into a shadow and disappeared.

When everyone stood firm again, they were already in the hall of Hogwarts.

Harry originally wanted to complain about Mike, but now that he hadn't seen Hogwarts for a long time, he didn't have the nature of complaining, but began to look at everything familiar around him.

Ms. Kate was doing something similar to Harry, but the only difference between the two was that Ms. Kate was really coming to Hogwarts for the first time.

After all, Squibs are not eligible for admission. Just

as the two looked like they were visiting the attractions, a familiar cat's cry came over.

Everyone looked back and saw that Mrs. Norris had appeared in the hall without knowing when, and was rubbing Mike's ankle at the moment.

And Filch, who was holding a lantern and panting, appeared right after him.

He was startled to find four more people in the hall, but when he saw that the leader was Mike, his face suddenly showed joy again.

"Mr. Townley! I'm honored that you're here!"

Filch's waist, which was not very straight to begin with, became even more bent. He stepped closer with small steps and said so in an almost humble and flattering manner.

Seeing this, Snape sneered disdainfully, but Filch didn't care.

You know, Mike is the real benefactor who helped them improve their status as squibs!

Filch felt that he should be respectful to such a person no matter how much.

Mike didn't think there was anything wrong, and said directly:

"Take us to the principal's office. I have something to ask Professor Flitwick."

Filch nodded humbly again, turned around and began to lead the way for Mike.

Along the way, he didn't stop talking, and kept complimenting Mike's great achievements.

This made Snape even more disdainful.

Perhaps out of mischievous intentions, Snape retaliated by saying that Ms. Kate was here to steal Filch's job this time.

As expected, Filch was furious.

Unfortunately, due to Mike's presence, Filch finally suppressed his anger and maintained the most basic courtesy.

After a while, Filch brought everyone to the door of an office.

But this was not the principal's office on the eighth floor, but an ordinary office used by Flitwick.

Filch did not explain much about it, and Mike, who knew the reason, did not ask, but pushed the door and walked in.

Although it was late at night, the office was still brightly lit.

The petite Professor Flitwick was working on a specially made high stool, and the number of documents around him almost drowned him.

"Oh! Professor Flitwick! You haven't rested yet?" Mike pretended to be surprised and worried and said, "This is not good! You must take care of your body! I still want to accompany you for a few more years!"

Hearing this, Professor Flitwick raised his head expressionlessly, and his eyes swept over everyone, finally stopping on Mike, and said unhappily:

"Really? Why do I feel like you are hoping that I will die soon? Otherwise, you wouldn't have given me such a tiring job as the headmaster of Hogwarts!"

"Wow! How could you think so! This is unfair to me! You will always be my professor, how could I treat you like this! You must know that when we were in Hogwarts."

"Don't say these useless things! Find me a new headmaster as soon as possible! Also, have you chosen the professor I want? If you have chosen, please invite him back to me!"

"Don't worry! Don't worry! It's already happening!"

Mike said as he walked around behind Professor Flitwick and began to massage Professor Flitwick.

Although Professor Flitwick was still ruthless, his expression of enjoyment showed that he actually enjoyed it quite a lot.

The two chatted for a while, and only after Mike had completely coaxed Professor Flitwick did Professor Flitwick look at Snape and the others again and said,

"So, what is the matter with you bringing them here this time?"

Mike did not stop what he was doing, and while pressing Professor Flitwick's shoulder, he leaned over and told Professor Flitwick the matter again.

During this time, Professor Flitwick's eyes kept roaming around Snape and the other two, which made Harry and Ms. Kate smile ingratiatingly, and even Snape began to panic.

Fortunately, the result was good. After listening to Mike's story, Professor Flitwick only thought for a while and then raised his eyebrows and said:

"I can agree to your request, but don't be happy yet! I must make three rules with you! Snape! I can let you become the professor of Potions again, and I can also let you manage Slytherin again. But you have to ensure fairness and justice, and no longer discriminate based on bloodline. If I find out anything, I'm sorry, I will send you to Azkaban!

And Harry! I don't care what you do outside, and I don't care. But your truancy is extremely bad! So I am honored to tell you that you are fined 1,000 hours of compulsory labor! This punishment will not end with your graduation, which means that even if you graduate, you must go to school for compulsory labor! If you choose not to come, the remaining labor time will be doubled and placed on your descendants!"

Professor Flitwick's words made Harry and Snape's faces change drastically. After all, the punishment was really heavy.

Fortunately, Mike had already given them a heads-up before they came, so after hesitating for a while, the two of them nodded.

Seeing this, Professor Flitwick put on a smile again and looked at Ms. Kate and said:

"Ma'am, I'm so glad that you are willing to come to work at Hogwarts. As you can see, I am a fairy half-blood, so please rest assured that there is absolutely no discrimination based on bloodline at Hogwarts.

But we still cannot satisfy your wish to replace Filch. After all, Filch has served Hogwarts for so many years and has not made any irreparable mistakes during this period, so... I finally decided to let you be the manager of the girls' dormitory!"

"Oh! This... is this true? Thank you! Thank you so much!"

Ms. Kate was so excited that she almost couldn't control herself. When Professor Flitwick was halfway through his words, she almost thought that she had no chance. Fortunately, the goddess of luck was on her side in the end.

At this moment, she was obviously so happy that she didn't care what job she got. Anyway, she could stay in Hogwarts.

But Snape was not as naive as her. He instinctively sensed something wrong from Professor Flitwick's words. He frowned and said,

"Dormitory manager? I haven't heard of Hogwarts having a dormitory manager."

As soon as these words came out, Ms. Kate, who was still happy just now, changed her face instantly and stared at Snape with a vicious look.

And Snape also knew that the other party misunderstood his meaning, but he was too disdainful to explain. He just stared at Flitwick, expecting an answer.

"Well, according to the dormitory rules of Hogwarts, girls can enter and leave the boys' dormitory at will. I think you should know this, right?" Professor Flitwick asked awkwardly. Seeing everyone nod, he continued, "The problem lies here. Recently, girls have been going to the boys' dormitory too frequently! And most of them happen at night! So... in order to protect the girls from harm, and also to protect the boys, I think it's time for me to find a female dormitory manager to curb this phenomenon."

After speaking, Professor Flitwick blushed.

As a half-elf, he had been very inferior since he was a child, so he had never done that kind of thing, and he was very shy when facing such things.

Mike, Harry and others looked at each other with confusion.
