My partner at Hogwarts is Tom

As Victor walked out of the principal's office with Tom, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Although he knew that with Dumbledore's invitation, he would definitely be able to take the job.

However, his past status as a dropout still made him somewhat uneasy.

Now that he has signed an appointment letter and entered into a contract with Hogwarts, officially becoming a professor at Hogwarts, he can finally put his mind at ease.

Now, he has finally returned to Hogwarts, not as a dropout, but with a new identity.

Even this time, it was in the capacity of a respected professor.

For a moment, Viktor felt refreshed and his mind was clear.

Tom grabbed a toothpick-sized knight's sword from the side and, disregarding all martial ethics, gave it a hard rub, mimicking the famous Sir Cadogan in the portrait.

Then, smiling, he bid farewell to Sir Cadogan and headed to Professor McGonagall's office to report.

……

"Thump, thump."

The carpet, which had transformed into a cat, jumped up and opened the door.

"I have received Dumbledore's notification. Congratulations, Professor Victor."

Professor Victor McGonagall looked at Tom as he entered.

"Thank you, Professor. I look forward to your guidance in the future."

Seeing Viktor's sudden change in composure...

Professor McGonagall nodded in satisfaction and then said.

"Of course, you can come to me with any questions you have."

As she spoke, Professor McGonagall waved her wand.

With a wave of his wand, the large bookcase beside him opened silently, and a dozen parchments flew out and landed neatly in front of Victor.

"This is your class schedule, this is the student list, the professors' duties and rights, the purchased items, and Keitel's subsequent teaching arrangements."

"Of course, the most important question is, do you need to change your teaching materials?"

"In addition to the most basic textbooks, Hogwarts professors can also add appropriate materials according to their own curriculum plans."

Upon hearing this, Viktor's eyes lit up, and he became somewhat eager to try.

But after saying that, McGonagall glanced at him and then spoke again.

"But your book is not acceptable."

"Which professor? I remember I've only written two books."

Looking at Victor, who was feigning ignorance, Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and said.

"Don't play dumb, Viktor. You know which book I'm talking about."

"How could I possibly be a professor? Don't I know my own book?"

Seeing Victor looking around nervously, Professor McGonagall finally couldn't help but speak.

"That one? Which one else! Victor, it's definitely 'Fantastic Beasts in My Stomach,' I don't want the whole school smelling like barbecue and hot pot!"

Seeing Professor McGonagall's anger, Victor said helplessly.

"Alright, alright, Professor, then let's not add it. Let me think. The original textbook was the old man's 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them,' right?"

"Then add my 'Fantastic Beasts Here' and that 'Monster Book of Monsters'."

"Only young wizards who dare to face sharp teeth and claws can attend my classes."

"Okay, then that's settled."

As she spoke, Professor McGonagall bent down and added the names of the two books to a piece of parchment.

"So, Viktor, do you have any other questions?"

Looking at Professor McGonagall, Victor scratched his head and asked somewhat embarrassedly.

"Professor, I don't know if Principal Dumbledore told you about my salary, he..."

Looking at Victor's embarrassed expression, Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and then spoke.

"Your salary will be doubled, and then you get out of here right now! You're disrupting my work!"

……

Amidst Professor McGonagall's shrewish roar, Tom and I escaped the vice principal's office.

Victor and Tom were simultaneously picking their ears when Victor said to Tom with a smile.

"Ah, Professor McGonagall is still the same as before, that's wonderful!"

"Hmm. Let me see, hmm, second floor, then left, right, right, yes, this is it!"

Looking at the thick oak door in front of him, Victor took out his wand and, using his access to Hogwarts, gently knocked.

Then, with a creak, the heavy door opened in front of Viktor.

Upon entering the office, one is greeted by uniform solid wood furniture and a clean room.

Victor couldn't help but admire the diligence of the house-elves at Hogwarts.

Even the faculty offices, which had been sealed off for decades, were spotless.

As Viktor entered the office, a short figure suddenly appeared in front of him and excitedly shouted.

"Welcome back to Hogwarts, Mr. Scamander!"

Looking at the house-elf that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Viktor gave a happy smile and then reached out to pinch his big ears.

"Long time no see, Jamie! How's your study of the recipes I sent you?"

"Of course, the little elves are always ready to be tested by you!"

"Oh, that's wonderful! I trust you all. I'll definitely enjoy your cooking at the opening banquet!"

"I certainly won't let Mr. Scamander down!"

"Okay, thank you for your concern, Jamie, but I don't need your help right now. I'll call you if I do."

"We are ready to answer your call anytime!"

After saying that, Jamie excitedly disappeared with a bang.

Watching Jamie disappear, Victor said with a smile.

"What an innocent bunch of little ones."

As he spoke, Viktor looked around his own office.

The 60-square-meter space is quite spacious, and the dark brown solid wood furniture with a sense of age gives people a sense of peace.

There is a small door behind the office, which leads to a lounge of nearly 50 square meters.

Through the windows of the common room, you can see Hogwarts’ greenhouse, Hagrid’s cottage, and the seemingly endless green sea called the Forbidden Forest.

Looking at the empty lounge, Victor waved his wand.

"Click"

With a crisp click, the tightly locked clasp of the suitcase placed at his feet opened.

Looking at the open briefcase, Victor waved his wand once more.

The suitcase then twisted and transformed into a massive double door, two meters tall.

Then the heavy door was eagerly pushed open.

A furry sniffler, looking furry and furtive, gripped the cabinet door and peered outside.

However, he froze when he saw Viktor.

Because he was the one who secretly slipped out of the principal's office just now.

However, before he could retract, he was pushed out with a somersault.

Then a series of sniffling sounds came as the snifflings tumbled out of the door.

As Sniff came out, the pair of doors were completely opened.

At the same time, all sorts of sounds poured out from the gate.
