A Magical Hogwarts

v7 Chapter 37: He knows how to touch my sensitive spots

If you want a person to do something, but the other person is unwilling, you must grasp the door of his life.

Some people eat soft and not hard, some eat hard but not soft, and some eat soft and hard.

As long as you identify your weaknesses, you can go anywhere.

And Professor Slughorn is undoubtedly difficult to deal with, otherwise Dumbledore will not be able to do anything about him.

But the old man's weakness is also obvious, that is, the greed for enjoyment, and... the fanatical "stamp collecting" for talented students.

He is like a high-end player. When the wizard was young, he judged whether the other party would succeed in the future.

He will gather the kind of successful wizards around him... Invest in advance and get high returns in the future.

Of course, the two do not conflict at all, or complement each other.

Slughorn's stamp collection is for a better material life;

And his good life and rich social network can help those students to go further.

It seems like a relationship of interest to interest, but in the words of Slughorn:

"Even if you are a genius, you still need someone to save you, right?

Don't make anything so vulgar! "

In short, Slughorn is a typical Slytherin, and he has that kind of temperament to his death.

But at this time, he was pinched to death by William.

Whether it's the expensive dragon corpse, the giant material, or the superior delivery service of the Akali Mystery Store...all attract Slughorn.

Especially after being displaced for a year, that kind of graceful and decent life is what he yearns for most at this moment.

The most important thing is William himself, who has only one year left to graduate from Hogwarts.

No one can hide his brilliance.

Slughorn doesn't want to miss this one, it may be the brightest pearl of his career.

And the security issues he was worried about... don't worry about it.

Under William's reminder, the castle is surrounded by giants to protect it.

He and Dumbledore sit at Hogwarts at all times.

Not to mention the Death Eaters, not even Voldemort dared to look at them.

Of course, as a master of words, William naturally knows what to leave blank and what to stop.

He didn't mention being a professor at all, and chatted about the Buckingham Palace war for a while, and finally stood up and said:

"We've been nagging for a long time, now it's time to go."

Slughorn seemed startled, he hesitated, and said, "You guys are leaving? Aren't you staying for dinner?"

"No, Annie is still at home, waiting for us to go back." Hermione smiled:

"Goodbye professor, we'll see you again at Christmas."

Harry also stood up ignorantly.

He remembered that William said he was here to recruit teachers... Now he just went back without saying anything?

Slughorn apparently thought so too, fiddling with his two fat thumbs and looking anxious.

Slughorn finally spoke first: "You really didn't come to me to be a professor at Hogwarts, William?"

William smiled.

In this case, just like men and women fall in love, whoever speaks first will be the biggest loser.

"Really not, sir." William tidied up his clothes and said with a distressed face: "But there is something I really want to trouble you with."

Slughorn is comfortable...that's right!

"Speak up and listen, if I can, I'll definitely help," he said eagerly.

William coughed:

"That's it, Professor Snape is going to be the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher.

The school still lacks a potions professor..."

Slughorn screamed inwardly:

"Show your tail, come to invite me!"

William paused and said slowly:

"You have so many contacts and students, we want you to recommend a reliable person to the school."

"..."

He glanced at Slughorn, wondering if:

"But since you haven't been in contact with the outside world for more than a year, then forget it, we'll find someone else to help."

"..."

This is not what I imagined!

Slughorn blushed, stared at William for a long time, and suddenly laughed heartily.

"Come on, which wizard is more powerful than me when it comes to potions?

You still want to come and let me go back...why be so bewildering. "

"No, you just need to recommend one..."

Slughorn interrupted William and hummed to himself, "I won't go back...I won't accept your invitation!"

"We really didn't plan to invite you." William nodded: "It just so happened that you didn't plan to go back to teach... In this regard, we are unanimous."

Slughorn stared blankly at William, as if anxious.

He grabbed the Firewhiskey on the table and gulped it down.

The old man walked up and down the room with red eyes and shouted angrily:

"Dumbledore, the cunning old bee, he still knows how!

He knows how to pique my interest, how to touch my sensitive spots and get me excited!

This old bastard!

Alright, alright... I'm in, I'd love to be a professor!

Are you satisfied? ! "

"Professor, you are too old, so stay here and take care of your life." William still refused.

Slughorn quickly grabbed William's sleeve and said anxiously:

"Don't go, William, this position is reserved for me! Otherwise, I will go to the school gate to pull the banner and go to the principal's office to make a scene!"

"Okay, okay." William looked embarrassed: "I'll go back and talk to the principal~lightnovelpub.net~ and see if I can accommodate."

"William, thank you, you are such a good boy."

William grinned.

Harry stared at the two of them dumbfounded, and said that he wanted to ask Lughorn to go back to be a teacher, but why is it the other way around?

Now that he agreed, the atmosphere became warm again, and Slughorn took William and Hermione to talk about his "Years as Head of Slytherin".

In the end, the old man sent the three out again. After drinking a bottle of whisky, he put his arms around William's shoulders drunk and said without restraint:

"It's not me, if I go back to Hogwarts, Severus will definitely give up the Slytherin position.

When he saw me, he had to bow to me respectfully and call me:

'Teacher, you are finally back'.

This is respect! "

He hiccupped and pointed to Jiang Shan Road:

"And Minerva, that little girl was trained by me back then.

She admired me the most, and was my little fan girl back then.

At least give me five times the salary.

And Filius...now the head of Ravenclaw too.

But an honest person, I say one, he dare not say two.

After school started, I introduced him to a rich old woman whose husband had died.

Women in their thirties, hold golden bricks.

This kid can have fun. "

"I'll take these words one by one." William laughed.

He then Apparates away with Hermione and Harry.

Slughorn stood there, rubbing his fat cheeks, a little proud.

In his entrainment, there are three more exquisite wizard cards.

A gust of cold wind blew through, and he suddenly woke up from the wine, cold sweat dripping down his back.

Wait... when William was leaving, what did he say?

...

...

(Thanks to the "Nine-Tailed Cat" boss for the reward.)
