Hogwarts doesn't need a savior

The Department of Law Enforcement, which is in charge of the wizarding world's judicial agency, the Wizengamot, and the violent agency, Aurors and Striker, is not only a giant department, but also an independent kingdom.

Almost all ministers have experience as directors of executive departments, and past directors have always been seen as the strongest contenders for the next minister.

This was true of Barty Crouch and Millicent Barnold, and of the current Director.

To this day, many people still believe that Fudge was able to rise to the position of Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes simply by taking advantage of old Barty's opportunity and climbing up to Dumbledore's high branch.

He himself was very sensitive about this, but he could not refute an objective fact.

-----------------

When Lynn arrived with Percy and Andrew, there weren't many visitors.

With Christmas around the corner, many wizards who want to do business will consider postponing it a little.

The lobby on the eighth underground floor was deserted, with only the Magic Brothers Fountain standing out.

The two little wizards were excited and nervous. Although it was not their first time here, they couldn't help but look around.

"Relax. If you're like this now, what will you do when you see Amelia later? She looks very fierce when she gets angry." Looking at the two people looking nervous, Lynn joked.

"Is that how you see me, Lynn?"

As the saying goes, you should not talk about people behind their backs. As soon as Lynn finished speaking, Ms. Bones walked out from the other side of the fountain, followed by Brian, who was gloating over her misfortune.

Lin En was a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "Doesn't this make you look majestic?"

"Then I should thank you for your compliment?" She smiled meaningfully, "Brian is right. There will be surprises if you come early."

Lynn glared at him fiercely, but only got a nonchalant smirk in return.

His cowardice in front of his old friends is well known to everyone.

Fortunately, there were two students following her. After hearing their timid greetings, Amelia did not continue to tease Lynn, but smiled and said:

"I heard about you guys from Lin En a while ago. Welcome to the Law Enforcement Department. Follow me. Our office is on the second floor."

The capable lady walked straight towards the elevator, heading to the heart of the Ministry.

-----------------

"The Executive Department has four permanent offices and two administrative bureaus, as well as many temporary departments. In the next month, you can apply to work in any department, including the Auror Office."

In the spacious office, Amelia, who was in working mode, had almost no expression on her face, full of seriousness and official business.

This giant and powerful organization in the British wizarding society is accepting Hogwarts students for internships for the first time.

Unlike other departments, this is the busiest and most dangerous place.

If it weren't for the guarantee from Barnold and Lynn, and if Hogwarts hadn't provided the grades and performance certificates of the two prefects, she, who was a serious person by nature, would not have agreed.

Not only that, she also looked at Lin En meaningfully.

Silence is better than sound.

She was also interested in the favor of a powerful wizard who was in the limelight.

Lynn nodded calmly and slowly spoke to the two proud students: "Andrew, I know you want to be an Auror. This is Brian Johnson, the captain of the second team. You should have heard of him."

"Yes, Professor!" Andrew stood up excitedly. "Mr. Johnson, I have heard about your deeds of catching three dark wizards alone in Surrey!"

"Oh? I'm so famous?"

Brian scratched his temples in surprise, the corners of his mouth raised, and he was very pleased.

But in front of the young man, he still acted like a senior and said seriously, "My team is stricter than Kingsley's, and it's very dangerous. Do you have the confidence and awareness?"

"Please allow me to learn from you, Captain Johnson!" Andrew said firmly.

"In that case, come with me and get familiar with the environment." Brian looked at Amelia and Lynn with a smile, "I'll take him there first."

"Thank you for your hard work, Brian." Amelia said, "Brian is one of the best Aurors I have here. I hope you cherish the opportunity, Mr. Travers."

"Be careful." Lynn warned.

"I will send him back to you safely, Lynn, don't worry." Patting his chest, Brian strode out of the office, followed by the excited Andrew.

He is young and full of passion, and probably doesn't know what he will experience.

Thinking of his old friend's style, Lynn secretly sighed and shifted his gaze to Percy.

"Percy, what do you think?"

"Professor, Director Bones, I would like to participate in the daily work of the Law Enforcement Department." Percy said uncertainly, his eyes wandering between the two of them.

"So you want to try everything?" Amelia looked at Percy with interest. As an experienced woman, she had already understood the ambition in the eyes of this young man.

She was the same when she was young.

"I..." Percy looked at Lynn who was silent, then looked at Amelia who had a scrutinizing look in her eyes, and nodded vigorously, "Yes! I hope to understand the various tasks here and receive the most comprehensive training!"

"You're ambitious." Amelia stood up, walked to Percy, and patted his shoulder. "Although it's not in compliance with the regulations, but Lynn is optimistic about you, so I have no reason to refuse."

"professor?"

Percy was surprised and delighted, but Lynn just smiled calmly.

"It's just an opportunity. It's up to you whether you can seize it or not. Let's go."

As he spoke, he stood up and shook hands with Amelia, their eyes meeting.

Ms. Bones returned satisfied.

-----------------

"How about starting from here? Experiencing the work of your fathers is something that only a few people are lucky enough to do."

Lin En stood outside the simple office.

Percy was a little confused: "Professor, I heard that my father only did trivial things in the ministry and had no ambition."

"Percy Ignatius Weasley." Lynn turned around and called him by his full name for the first time. "I think you should have more respect for your father."

Percy had never seen Lynn so serious before, and was speechless for a moment.

"He works alone and has achieved great results. Together with Molly, he has brought you up. Do you think he is just a man without ambition, Percy?" Lynn frowned. "Arthur is an excellent wizard and father. I thought you would try to understand him."

Percy bowed his head in silence, his face flushing.

"How many supporters does his Muggle Protection Act have? How much success has he achieved in his campaign against the Dark Arts? You may not know as much about him as an outsider like me."

Lynn said somewhat disappointedly, then rang the doorbell.

"Maybe this experience can help you get to know him again."

"Ding-dong-"

"Who is it? Please come in!"

The wooden door opened and Arthur appeared in the narrow corridor.

"Lynn? Percy?" He looked a little surprised, "I thought you would send him to another department. I'm too young."

"Just right, Arthur." Lynn smiled and hugged him. "Percy wants to experience the work of all permanent institutions. This is the first stop."

"We... of course, thank you, Lynn." Arthur immediately understood Lynn's true intention and said with emotion.

"Percy, this is where you will be working for the next week. Arthur will arrange everything for you. See you after the holidays."

Patting Percy's shoulder firmly, Lynn turned and left.

Only the father and son, who had not seen each other for many days, were left looking at each other.

On the first day of the holiday, Percy Weasley's internship at the Ministry of Magic began.

In a way he had not expected.

Chapter 86 Draco Malfoy

Back at Hogwarts, Lynn was thinking about Bellatrix's dark magic, and was worried about the Weasley father and son who were far away in London.

Freezing three feet is not a day's cold.

Percy's character is both innate and influenced by acquired factors.

The love of his mother, the tolerance of his father, and the unrestrained nature of his two elder brothers, combined with his difficult family circumstances, made the third son of the Weasley family feel stressed and began to develop ambitions that were completely unlike those of his family.

Even if Lin En intends to guide, the results will not be seen in a short period of time.

Although Percy respected and even admired him, they were not relatives after all.

There are many things that can only be explained clearly among family members. Arthur probably realized this but just never found the opportunity.

Lynn specially planned this internship, partly to allow the two students to experience it early, and partly to create a suitable opportunity for the father and son.

He hoped Percy could understand - otherwise, even if he valued talent, he would have to take a long-term view and even re-evaluate the reliability of this outstanding disciple.

Not as a teacher looking at a student, but as a prospective member of the Stargazers.

"Ugh……"

All the complicated thoughts came together in a sigh, and Lynn took out the parchment, ready to carefully study Bellatrix's magic and Voldemort's shocking Killing Curse.

Although he himself did not like black magic, he never had any prejudice against any knowledge.

Man is the master of knowledge and power rather than his servant, and all unknowns are mysteries.

If his diligent pursuit of knowledge in his early years was due to the survival crisis and the sense of urgency for growth, then over the years, although he still has the same pressure, it is more of a pure desire for knowledge.

Learning and exploring have become the instinct of his life.

However, just as he was about to start his research, there was a slight sound outside the door.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

"Hermione? Come in."

Lynn said without even looking up, picking up a quill and writing down his guess.

But before he had written a few words, he stopped again because there was silence outside the door.

He left his seat puzzled and slowly opened the door that had been destroyed many times by Snape.

Standing outside the door was a reserved Draco Malfoy.

"Mr. Malfoy, what can I do for you?" he asked politely.

"E... Professor Eric, Professor Snape asked me to come to you." Draco frowned, "He said you could help me. You know, I've encountered this before..."

"Please come in."

Lynn understood immediately and let Draco into the house.

This was an agreement between him and Snape, and it was also a way to repay a favor he had done before.

-----------------

"Coffee or pumpkin juice?" After the guests and hosts sat down, Lynn looked at the slightly trembling Draco and asked softly, "You are very nervous now, relax."

"Sorry... Professor Eric, just some water will be fine." Draco shook his head. This was the first time he was alone with Lynn. Thinking of what his father said, he felt particularly uneasy.

"I thought you would prefer drinks at your age." Lin En said with a little regret, "But this is good, it's healthy."

As he spoke, he waved his wand and a glass of warm water appeared on the coffee table next to Draco.

"I have an impression of you. You have excellent grades and are one of the few students who are close to Hermione. It's a pity that your results in the magic test were not ideal."

Intentionally or unintentionally, he mentioned Hermione again.

"I...I...I'm sorry, Professor." Draco looked gloomy.

He had always wanted to surpass Hermione, but he couldn't, which made him jealous.

"No need to apologize, Mr. Malfoy. The student's grades are lower than expected, it's the teacher's fault." Lynn said gently, "So, I'm quite happy that you can come to me today, not just because of Professor Snape - this is the first time we have talked alone."

"Professor, you wouldn't... I heard from my father..." Draco hesitated, his face flushed and he couldn't say a complete sentence.

But Lynn knew exactly what he meant and understood his concerns.

He has always lived in the most stubborn bastion of the pure-blood ideology. Although the people he has come into contact with from childhood to adulthood seem to be many, they are actually very homogeneous, and most of them are supporters of Voldemort.

Lucius Malfoy and his pure-blood friends spent all day together, which naturally influenced the young him.

Naturally, Lin En would not have the slightest positive image among these people.
