Hogwart’s Certain Professor Of Magic
Chapter 176
Diagon Alley 126a, 9:30 a.m. the next day.
At the door of a low white building, Felix smiled and shook hands with a woman in a purple dress.
"No need to send it, madam. I am honored to continue working with you."
"Oh~Mister Haip, you are too humble, your books are always so enlightening. "
Felix walked down the dark brown wooden steps and blended into the crowd. At this time, his heart felt relaxed, "The first book is over, and it takes almost no effort." '
'But then is the highlight. '
He walked along Diagon Alley, turned a turn in front of Gringotts Bank, turned to another fork, and counted the house numbers along the way.
"13a, 14b, 15a on the south side of Diagon Alley... So, shop 15b should be on the opposite side." Felix turned around and saw a 7th Layer high building.
The building is dirty and in disrepair for a long time, with all the letters on it falling off. He barely recognized an L letter, which cast a shadow on his next cooperation.
In the gap between the building and the house next to it, there is a row of huge trash cans on which there are also traces of LCA letters.
He followed the dark stairs to the second floor, pushed open a scratched oak door, and a noisy, noisy, fine noise broke into his ears.
He seems to have come to another world. The walls are covered with densely packed colorful comics. These drawings cover the wall itself tightly.
The protagonist of the drawing is mostly a young boy wearing a beret and a striped shirt. He is active in different scenes: being chased by a group of Bowtruckles; holding a small wooden stick in his hand. Waving; riding a one-horned rhino, turning his head excitedly to greet his companions; standing on the roof of a farmhouse in a wizard cloak...
But Felix can also see that these paintings are some years old, The color of part of the drawing has faded, and some of the pictures in the corners have climbed up purple mildew spots.
All this shows that this publishing house used to be glorious, but now it is a little down.
"Anyone? Mr. Andes?" Felix called.
After a long time, a door was pushed open beside him. The door was hidden in layers of drawings. Felix didn't notice it for a while.
A thin middle-aged wizard stared at him, unshaven, he asked in a thick nasal voice: "Felix Haip?"
"It's me, I think You are Mr. Andes? We made an appointment."
The wizard released the doorknob, "Come in, it's a bit messy inside." He each minding their own business backed away.
Felix slightly frowned, but he didn’t say anything, and followed the wizard into the room. There was an unpleasant smell in it, and all kinds of debris were piled up indiscriminately. He still saw it in the corner A few plates of leftover rice.
This makes his scalp numb, and subconsciously wants Disapparation to leave here.
The only thing that made him a little relieved was that he saw fresh paint and canvas in this place barely regarded as a studio. The half of the drawing on it was excellent.
He decided to learn more about it, but only if the room meets his aesthetics.
"Scourgify! Scourgify! The whirlwind swept!"
Felix waved wand again and again to clean up all kinds of garbage in the house, and a sudden gust of wind repeated a little The room was raging, the windows made the sound of "Gragra", and the tables and chairs shook desperately, but the dust and dirt on them were quickly peeled off and swept into the wind, finally forming a muddy air mass.
He opened the window and flew out a silver Swift from the wand tip, "Do me a favor, I remember seeing a trash can when I came in." Swift rushed to him nodded and fluttered out of the window. , Followed by a long gray dragon.
"You, you..." The wizard named Andis looked at Felix dumbfounded, his tongue knotted for a moment.
"Please sit down, Mr. Andes." Felix waved wand and pushed the cleaned chair in front of him.
Andys sat down with a blank expression, he looked around all around, and only after a while he realized, "This seems to be my home?" He mumbled first, then blushed and yelled angrily. .
Felix sat opposite him and said calmly, "Mr. Andes, let's make a long story short. Now that you have agreed to this visit, I tentatively think that you have a need for external contributions. "
"And as your potential partner, I have the right to make demands on you at least before you explicitly refuse."
"You..."
Felix knocked on the ring with wand, and a stack of drawings flew out from it, "This is my manuscript, "Young wizard Mick fortuitous encounter", I mentioned in the letter. You can take a look first, and then It's up to you to decide whether we continue the conversation. I don't want to waste our time."
The wizard on the opposite side held the drawing and looked at him with confused eyes.
"What are you waiting for?"
The wizard swallowed, forced a smile and said: "No, nothing."
He quickly Looking down, at the same time he put a label in his heart, a wizard with a strong character.
The wizard decided to pick out a few shortcomings at random, and then drove him away quickly. If he is not satisfied, he ran to the street to ask for help...
Time passed, Andis was careless from the very beginning and became serious. From time to time, various evaluations were made in his mouth.
"It's not bad."
"Interesting."
"What is this...the...wheel? How does it spin, really Isn’t it magic?"
"Oh my god, two glasses of water can be turned into red by pouring them together? I guess it’s some kind of transparent potion."
Don’t know what At the beginning of time, he pulled the chair next to Felix and discussed with him.
"I like this paragraph, I think it’s very smart—"
Felix Look at it. It was the young wizard Mick and his new muggle friend going to shop to buy clothes. :
"What should I say?" The young wizard Mick looked at the dazzling array of clothes in the shop, and asked with trepidation: "I don't understand at all, I am a stupid boy from the country."
"Don't worry, I don't understand, but mother told me a trick." His friend said.
young wizard Mick watched his companion confidently say to the clerk: "My friend only has a budget of 15 pounds, but he needs a coat, a pair of pants, and a bow tie is best. Can you do it, madam?"
The young clerk smiled and said, "Of course, little gentlemen." She glanced at the figure of young wizard Mick, and turned to get the right clothes.
His companion smiled at the young wizard Mick, "How about it, isn't it difficult?"
……
It's been almost half When he was young, Felix asked him, "What do you think?"
Andy's expression became shrewd. He quickly judged the value of this manuscript. After seven or eight minutes, he hesitated. : "Frankly speaking, I'm not sure."
He added: "Personally, this is a very interesting comic book for children, but I am not so confident in my own vision. You I have also seen that this publishing house has indeed been brilliant, but since I took over, it has failed a dozen times in succession. Finally, I had to sell the 30th anniversary commemorative issue of old books."
"Mr. Andes, I haven't asked you yet, what do the three letters of LCA stand for?" Felix asked.
"It is the abbreviation of the names of the three founders. The A is Andis, which was created by my grandfather and two of his good friends," said the wizard.
"The masterpiece of your company, "The Adventures of Martin Miggs"..."
"It was my grandfather’s idea, which is also his personal experience. He is still a When he was a child, he once received a muggle boy who strayed into the magic world. They played happily for a week, and then they were discovered. The staff of Ministry of Magic erased the boy’s memory and sent him back At my own home."
Felix clearly nodded. He took out several parchments from the ring, which were filled with various forms and data. The parchment floats and sticks to the wall.
"Mr. Andes, I cannot prove that this manuscript will definitely help your publishing house stand up, but we can analyze the data. Since the establishment of your company, a total of 17 sets of comics have been published. Of course , "The Adventures of Martin Miggs" is the most famous, and I got some data from friends in charge of publications in Ministry of Magic. It is obvious that relatively novel content will be more popular..."
"At the same time, this manuscript, which is positioned as a children’s publication, does not appear to be young and childish, and is also very friendly to adults. If you want, we can cooperate."
Diss actually doesn't have much choice, unless he still wants to continue to eat leftovers from thirty years ago.
So when Felix gave him a reasonable reason, he agreed. Their initial plan was very conservative. They published a hundred books and tried the water first. Even if they failed, it wouldn't hurt.
At best, it was Andis wasting a little time, but what he lacks most now is time.
After finalizing the cooperation, Andis showed him his ancestral craftsmanship. He altered a drawing of Felix, and beat it with wand. Soon, the whole picture was Filled with color, the drawing becomes refined.
On the screen, a little boy stands on a huge Ferris wheel, stepping his feet and looking towards the window, beside him is a vanilla ice cream that has been eaten in half and is floating in the air.
After half an hour, Felix walked out of the LCA building, and he was very happy.
He is going to return to the office through Diagon Alley's public fireplace, saving him Disapparation to the side of Forbidden Forest and having to walk some distance. But at this moment--
"Professor Haip?"
Felix looked back and saw a familiar silhouette in the crowd. He said in a bit of surprise: "Potter?"
