The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v3 Chapter 210: Hagrid and Buckbeak

School recruitment is going on in an orderly manner. The little wizards walked into the cubicle, submitted their resumes, and after discussing with the interviewer from the Ministry of Magic, they either walked out of the cubicle with sad faces or happily, and went to the next target.

Most of them have made preparations in advance, folded all the positions they are interested in in the brochure issued by the school, and some of them have thought carefully and planned the route in advance.

After the matter with Burns was settled, Tom suddenly became idle. He wandered aimlessly in the venue, planning to wait until noon to eat.

Walking halfway, Tom saw the captain of the college team, Rich, sitting on the edge of the stands with a face of comfort, holding a drink in his hand, looking out of place in this lively venue.

"Yordle!" He saw Tom and greeted him enthusiastically, looking in a good mood.

"I didn't expect you to come to see the school recruiting at such a young age. How is it? Did you gain anything?" Rich motioned Tom to sit down next to him, and chatted with Tom.

"Certificates in Charms and Potions are very important. I think most positions require certificates in these two courses." Tom said what he had just wandered around.

"It's true, we are wizards, how could we not use magic spells?"

"Captain, have you finished the interview today?" Seeing Rich's expression, Tom felt that Rich's interview must have gone well.

"Yeah," Richie looked very happy, "I found a pretty good job in the Department of Magical Sports and Sports, and now we're almost done talking, and we're just waiting for the exam."

"Congratulations. But don't you have any plans to join the Quidditch team after graduation?"

Rich shook his head and said nothing. He is not like Wood of Gryffindor, who is extremely obsessed with Quidditch. He had estimated his own level, and felt that he would be lucky enough to play as a substitute for a second-tier team after graduation. He had no future at all, so it was better to go directly to the Ministry of Magic to work.

"You take a stroll, I'll go back to the lounge to sleep for a while." After Rich finished his drink, the excitement of the interview just ended had receded, and tiredness flooded his heart. Every pore on his body seemed to be asking him for leave.

So he said hello to Tom and left.

It was still early for lunch, and Hermione didn't know where to go, and Tom fell into a state of doing nothing. He was bored flipping through the brochure Rich left him, and a piece of recruitment news caught his attention.

[The Azkaban Liaison Office, a subsidiary of the Auror Office, was officially established!

Job requirements: Charms, Potions, Transfiguration "good" grades, must be able to use the Patronus Charm

Join us and become a hero who keeps the wizarding world safe! 】

Tom raised his eyebrows. Joining this department was a disaster. Now this liaison office is hanging under the Auror office, it looks like a very good place to go, but it will soon be transferred to the unpopular Magical Creature Management and Control Department, as the boss of the department, he will be absent for a long time...

Even I feel that this department has no future at all within two years, it can only be said that the future is promising. But when I start to expand vigorously, everything may be different again.

"The twenty-first century is the century of the Azkaban Liaison Office" seems like a good slogan.

When it was time for lunch, many interviewers stopped what they were doing, took out their lunch boxes, and began to enjoy lunch. Overtime interviews during lunch? over thinking! And from nine o'clock in the morning to now, basically the vacant positions have been filled, and the students who came here have also gained more or less, so the highlight of this school recruitment has passed. The students were exiting the arena, and the venue became deserted visibly to the naked eye.

Hermione appeared out of nowhere.

"My work over there is over, how do you see it?"

Hermione completely lost the previous sullen look, and she happily told Tom about her experience in the morning.

"I've talked to her, and she thinks I have great potential, and I can work in the Ministry of Magic in the future... I've also figured it out, and I won't enroll in the Muggle Studies course next school year..."

After a year of study, Hermione felt that Muggle Studies could no longer help her, and it would not have much impact on her future employment—she walked around the venue, and there were positions that required a certificate for this course No more than ten. Failure to take this course has little impact on employment.

After chattering for a while, Hermione suddenly let out a stomach growl, which made her blink her eyes in embarrassment. I came in a hurry in the morning, didn't even eat breakfast, and "online" with the interviewers in the morning, which was a bit exhausting. By now Hermione's stomach was empty.

"Looks like it's lunch time," Hermione forced to be calm and invited Tom to have lunch together.

When we returned to the castle, the auditorium was already full of little wizards.

Tom had just sat down and served himself a plate of roast meat when an owl landed on his table and pecked at his wrist with its beak, drawing his attention to himself.

"Oh? Thanks..." After Tom took the envelope from the owl, the owl flew away with a big chicken leg in its mouth.

Tom tore open the envelope, and inside was a note which read:

[Dear Tom and Hermione:

Would you like to drink tea with me around six o'clock this afternoon? Harry and Ron will be there too.

Have fun, Hagrid]

"It should be about Buckbeak," Tom speculated.

So, after waking up in the afternoon, Tom and Hermione left the Ravenclaw tower and came outside Hagrid's hut.

Tom knocked on the door, and there was a loud noise behind it, like the crowing of hawks, the barking of dogs, and the voices of people.

The door opened, revealing Hagrid's big unshaven face, and Fang's huge dog's head appeared at the same time. It seemed that it couldn't wait to run out, but Hagrid grabbed it back.

After entering Hagrid's cabin, Tom saw Buckbeak lying on Hagrid's bed at a glance. The huge wings are gathered on both sides of the body, and the claws are retracted under the body. It is eating a dead ferret on a plate in front of it. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

Harry and Ron had arrived and were sitting at the table with a huge teacup in front of them and a plate of bread in the middle of the table.

"How's the case with Buckbeak and the Dangerous Animals Commission?" asked Tom, as he sat down. "Did the books I borrowed help?"

On one side, Harry and Ron twisted their bodies uneasily. The two of them completely forgot about Buckbeak's case, and the Firebolt absorbed all their energy.

"Just received a letter from the Ministry of Magic, the case has been advanced." Hagrid rubbed his hands a little uneasy.

My roommate bought a big bag of soy products (tofu, bean skin, etc.) for 60 yuan. Although it is still about 100% more expensive than before, it still looks so simple and unpretentious in a bunch of high-priced group purchases. up.

The emperor's meal today: Stir-fried pork with cabbage + cold lettuce

Hope those takeaways are still around after it's over.
