After going back to the dormitory to rest that night, Hugo chatted with his roommates for a while and then went to bed to rest. After all, they had spent a whole day on the train before, so they naturally felt a little tired and hoped to have a good sleep to welcome tomorrow's class.
However, after going to bed, Hugo did not go to bed directly, but contacted the company through the admiral network.
Because he knew it wasn't too easy for anyone to go to Hogwarts Castle to find a job. Not to mention that the business is now an American, and Harry Potter is attending school.
"It was very simple to find a job at that time." After hearing Hugo's questions, the company, who was putting his legs on a table in the office and flipping books, recalled Hugo's memories of what happened when he met Principal Dumbledore.
"At least I feel that his person is very good. After reading my resume and verifying it, I regret to tell me that the professor of the black magic defense science class I wanted to find before now has someone, and then asked me if I would like to take over the job as a safety officer in the school."
Hugo naturally knew that the reason why the company chose to go at that time was to avoid the curse of the black magic defense class. After all, compared with face-to-face wars, the ship girls were still a little afraid of this extremely secret curse.
Especially before the curse principle is understood, the ship girls will never use themselves as test subjects.
Therefore, the company came to Hogwarts to find a job and just a simple try. In fact, at this time, she was ready to participate in the ship girls' operation to go to the Balkans to obtain the home port. But unexpectedly, Principal Dumbledore actually kept her and gave her a job.
Soon, other ship girls also connected to the Admiral Network to discuss why companies could get involved in Hogwarts as faculty.
But after chatting for a long time, no one got a reason to convince most people, but only because the professor's sexual orientation rejected some obviously impossible reasons.
"Forget it, if you can't figure it out, you won't think about it." She racked her brains and couldn't figure out why Professor Dumbledore wanted to do this and Hugo said directly to the company."
At least based on the information we have obtained, Dumbledore is not Voldemort after all, and is not the kind of person who likes to actively set traps and cheat people. So as long as you operate according to the rules and regulations in school, you should not encounter any worse things."
Just as Hugo and the others were discussing why Professor Dumbledore would allow businesses to enter the school, Professor McGonagall was also discussing the same issue with Professor Dumbledore in the principal's office in Hogwarts.
"Albus, I don't quite understand your choice." Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore sitting opposite the table with a serious face. "Why did you allow that American wizard to enter the school to take such a position? I think there is enough people in the school, and there is really no need to add new staff."
"Minerva, don't be impatient." Dumbledore said gently with his hands pressed down.
"Do you think there is something that Miss Halsey doesn't suit her position? For example, if she is not strong enough, does not have the corresponding knowledge, or has a suspicious background in her entire life, it may cause harm to the school-"
"No, of course not." Professor McGonagall said after pursing her lips vigorously, "We have confirmed that her resume is indeed true. And it is completely fine to let the director of the Auror office say that he can be the president of the American Magic France Association in just 20 years."
"I also read the lesson plan she prepared for me before. To be honest, her level in this regard is no worse than that of the younger professors. At least I think as long as I take her for half a school year, she will be no less than some professors who have been teaching for ten years."
Although he didn't quite understand Dumbledore's approach, Professor McGonagall still truthfully expressed his inner feelings about the company.
"That's right." Professor Dumbledore nodded.
"Since you think she is a good person and has the ability to take on this position, why don't we hire her? At least in terms of expenses, I have successfully convinced the school managers to pay Miss Halsey's salary."
Speaking of this, the principal paused for a moment. As his closest comrade in Hogwarts, Professor Dumbledore decided to disclose some information to Professor McGonagall after thinking for a while.
"As for why I chose to recruit her, it's because of what happened in school at the end of last year."
"You mean - it's related to that person?" Professor McGonagall carefully asked after hearing what President Dumbledore said. As the principal's most reliable assistant in Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall naturally knew who the guy posted on the back of Quirrell's head was last year.
"Yes, that person appeared last year, indeed beyond my expectations." Dumbledore said, crossing his hands and putting his elbows on the table.
"At the beginning, I just thought someone wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone. But I realized later that Voldemort was not completely gone as we had expected."
"I can only say that we were very lucky last year. Although Voldemort tried to kill Harry many times after entering the school, the heaviest did not cause too much damage." Dumbledore shook his head at this point.
"But this incident also reminds me of what I have to do, and I can't expect to have the same good luck as last school year every time."
"In this case, I think it's a good idea to invite some professionals in this area to school. And a young but experienced Auror is a very good choice."
"So when Miss Halsey asked me if I could offer him other positions besides the Dark Magic Defense Arts Professor, I offered her the current position?"
"It's a pity that the school managers think that Hogwarts Castle is safe enough. I just made this request a little nervous." At this point, Dumbledore showed a helpless expression.
"At first they were reluctant to pay for this newly added position, and they didn't get their consent until I added the job as a teaching assistant to this position."
"Because you now have to handle the vice principal's work in addition to bringing the seventh grade transformation class, I arranged this teaching assistant to you so that you can enjoy private time like other professors. It's not like you are busy all day in school like you are now."
"Uh-thank you for your concern." Professor McGonagall smiled, and then quickly returned to his serious expression. "
So why did you appoint Mr. Lockhart as a professor of Dark Magic Defense?”
"I admit he may be good at facing evil creatures or black magic, but I don't think a bestseller is suitable for a career like professor."
"This is because we have no choice." Dumbledore smiled helplessly. "You know that the school's Dark Magic Defense Class was not well-known outside. At that time, Mr. Lockhart was the only one who came to apply for the job. So I could only-"
