Chapter 516 Interview
Chapter 516 Interview
One day, when Li Zhuoguang was practicing at home, he heard a guest downstairs. This was strange, because everyone knew that they would leave sooner or later, so they did not forge deep friendships with the local natives, nor did they invite others to their residence.
Li Zhuoguang was curious and went downstairs, just in time to see a thin, pale and downtrodden man sitting in the living room, at a loss.
At this time, several people were standing aside and looking at this man. It seemed that Li Zhuoguang was not the only one who was curious. Being surrounded by so many people made the visitor a little nervous.
When Aliana saw Li Zhuoguang coming downstairs, she said to him, "This man said that Wei Changfeng asked him to come. It's a bit strange."
Xiong Facai twitched his nose: "He's still a werewolf..."
Hearing that his identity was exposed, the man immediately clenched his robe tightly, and his knuckles turned white. But then he heard Xiong Facai say, "Could it be that the leader of a werewolf tribe came to thank us?"
The man raised his head carefully and saw that the people in front of him did not look at him differently because of his identity as a werewolf. Listening to their conversation, they were a little surprised that an outsider like him came to visit. Did they never have guests visiting their home?
The man thought he'd better introduce himself first. "My name is Remus Lupin, and I'm here to apply for a job."
Unexpectedly, he was a key character in the plot. Li Zhuoguang was a little amused: "Why are you applying for this job?"
Lupin answered honestly: "I am here to apply for the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts."
"Uh, shouldn't Dumbledore be the one to handle this matter... Oh, I almost forgot, Wei Changfeng is now the school director."
Lupin nodded: "Because of the series of accidents involving Defense Against the Dark Arts teachers at Hogwarts, it has been difficult to recruit people for this position, so Professor Dumbledore asked the school directors to help recommend someone.
And I got to know Councillor Wei because of the Werewolf Mutual Aid Foundation, so he asked me to come to him."
Li Zhuoguang looked at the wall clock and said, "He should be back soon. Please wait for a while."
Xiong Facai took out a cup of honey water from somewhere and handed it to Lupin, asking him to take a rest. Before Lupin finished the cup of honey water, Wei Changfeng came back.
He saw Lupin already sitting in the living room, so he walked over and said, "I didn't expect you to come so early, so let's make quick work of it. Follow me, our interview will be outside the house."
As he said this, he took Lupin to the open space outside the house. Li Zhuoguang and others stood on the second-floor balcony, watching the interview below with great interest.
Wei Changfeng activated his telepathic ability and summoned a giant black bear: "Your opponent is this one, do your best to defeat him."
As soon as he finished speaking, the giant bear pounced on Lupin. After all, he had experienced war, and because of his identity, he often faced external malice, so his fighting skills had not regressed at all.
The moment the giant bear pounced on him, he rolled to the side, shook his wand, and cast three silent spells on the giant bear. Unfortunately, the spell was eliminated by the evil spirit on the giant bear and was useless.
The giant bear shook its body and rushed towards Lupin again. It can be seen that Wei Changfeng has restrained himself and did not let the giant bear release its evil spirit to attack. Otherwise, Lupin would have been beaten into a pulp in just one encounter.
Although Lupin looked very thin, he was quite agile. He kept turning and dodging the giant bear's attack while performing a magic trick out of nowhere.
After all, the giant bear was the incarnation of Xiong Facai, and it contained his evil spirit, so ordinary spells had no effect at all. After a while, Lupin began to pant.
But he didn't seem to be planning to give up, and he still tried his best to resist. Wei Changfeng looked at him for a while, nodded with satisfaction, and waved his hand to disperse the clone. "You passed the interview. You can report directly to Hogwarts when school starts. I will write a letter to inform Dumbledore." Wei Changfeng smiled and stretched out his hand to pull Lupin up from the ground: "I thought you were also a fake, but I didn't expect you to be stronger than ordinary wizards."
"Also?" Lupin got the point.
Wei Changfeng explained: "You are not my only candidate. I interviewed other people just now, but they were really mediocre.
What was even worse was the guy named Lockhart, he couldn't even cast a complete spell and was knocked down at the very beginning. I thought he was some outstanding adventurer."
After getting Wei Changfeng's approval, Lupin seemed very excited and kept thanking Wei Changfeng. Now even if the Werewolf Mutual Aid Association is newly established, it will provide wolf poison potion free of charge to all werewolves with no criminal record.
But prejudice is a mountain after all, wizards still look at werewolves with tinted glasses, and the jobs a werewolf can find are still very limited. The income of Hogwarts professors is not low, so Lupin is in urgent need of this job.
It was already time for dinner, so Li Zhuoguang simply asked Lupin to stay and eat with him.
At the dinner table, Li Zhuoguang asked Wei Changfeng: "I remember that recruiting teachers is usually decided by the principal alone. Why did Dumbledore give this job to you?"
Wei Changfeng said honestly: "Dumbledore originally wanted to invite one of us to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, but you know our situation..."
Li Zhuoguang knew this too well. After all, among all the passengers on the Dragon God, only he and Pojun had the highest attainments in magic. The others still needed Li Zhuoguang to teach them magic.
What's even more ridiculous is that Wei Changfeng can't learn magic at all. In a sense, he is a Muggle. If the wizards knew that a Muggle was a member of the Wizengamot, I wonder what they would think.
"…So, I can only decline the offer and try to find someone else to be the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts."
Everyone ate and talked at the same time. Because there was an outsider like Lupin present, no one talked about any in-depth topics. They just talked about some recent experiences and interesting things.
Lupin, who was eating quietly at the side, found it strange that although Li Zhuoguang was the only minor here, everyone else was implicitly following him. And Wei Changfeng, who was obviously a councillor, was very polite to everyone, as if he was the lowest in status here.
Then, Lupin remembered that Wei Changfeng had always claimed to be a member of the Li family. Just now, everyone introduced themselves, and it seemed that Li Zhuoguang was the only one with the surname Li.
Does that mean that Li Zhuoguang is the only official member of the Li family here?
Just as Lupin was daydreaming here, in Li Zhuoguang's room on the second floor, the little mouse Banban was holding the iron bars of the cage with his two little paws, trying desperately to shake the cage under the bed.
He had heard Lupin's self-introduction downstairs just now clearly. As a good friend of his in school, Lupin could recognize his Animagus form.
Time passed quickly, and it was time to go back to school. With the Philosopher's Stone in hand, Li Zhuoguang's next plan was simple. The first was to eat Voldemort's whole bucket, and the second was to collect as many wizards' souls as possible.
These are all his good medicines for treating diseases.
