Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

There were not many people in the restaurant. From a distance, Sherlock could see that Amy followed the waiter and took out a bottle of cider from the wine cabinet and was jumping over.

Amy's appearance is indeed much more refined than that of a normal human cub.

But according to what Sherlock knew, girls with Veela blood basically have silver hair, while Amy has blonde hair.

Eddie has black hair. Sherlock originally thought that Amy's hair color was after her mother's, but now it seems that Eddie probably used some means to change Amy's hair color in order to protect her identity.

After Amy came back, Eddie and Sherlock had a tacit understanding of the topic of change.

"Tomorrow you can report to the Ministry of Magic." Eddie gave Amy a glass of juice and said to Sherlock, "Mrs. Selwyn seems to be very interested in your method of controlling the wand to cast spells, which is why she is willing to The reason why you agreed to join the Department of Mysteries.”

No one around noticed them. Sherlock used his control magic to control the cider bottle Amy had just brought over, unscrewed the cap on it, and then filled Eddie's glass with wine.

"There is nothing to hide about this magic. It is indeed special enough, but not everyone can learn it, or it is not a magic that can be learned normally. The reason why I know it is passed down from my mother."

"Just be careful. There are not all good people in the Ministry of Magic. Although Mrs. Selwyn has made her attitude clear and does not support the Dark Lord's side, you can tell from her last name that her husband is The Selwyn family, a pure-blood family with a long history.”

Sherlock was not very interested in who his future immediate boss would be. Anyway, he had no intention of staying at the Ministry of Magic for a long time.

If he could find clues or ways to go back, he would definitely leave this timeline with Snape immediately.

Even if he couldn't be found in the end, Sherlock had no intention of staying in the Ministry of Magic forever.

"The mole I caught is named Algie, right? Is he convicted now?" Sherlock asked.

Eddie sneered and shook his head.

"His trial in the Wizengamot will not start until three days later. You should also be invited to be a witness by then. But judging from the recent trends coming from the ministry, his family is actively operating and wants to Let him escape the blame on the grounds that he was under the Death Eater's Imperius Curse."

Sherlock frowned.

"How would anyone believe such an outrageous lie? Aren't it still four Death Eaters who were caught together? Can't we use Veritaserum to get the truth out of them?"

"There has been a debate in the Ministry of Magic about whether Veritaserum should be used on wizards." Eddie said playfully, "A large number of people are opposed to using Veritaserum to interrogate prisoners, saying it is inhumane. Those four Death Eaters are not qualified to be tried. After being caught, they are thrown directly into Azkaban."

Sherlock complained.

"Veritaserum is inhumane. Throwing prisoners into prison and letting dementors suck them is just humane? It's really outrageous."

Eddie's mood was quite relaxed about this matter.

"However, according to the temper of the current minister, Mr. Minkan, the possibility of Algy being found not guilty is very low, but due to the power of his family, he will not be imprisoned in Azkaban for a long time."

"Algi's exposure is still a minor problem." Eddie's face turned gloomy. "I feel that he is not the only one in Barty's Auror team who has become a traitor. It's just that some people haven't. The exposure remains hidden.”

Sherlock raised an eyebrow.

"Do you have any doubts about the candidate?"

Eddie shook his head.

"No, but judging from the current situation, among the four remaining members of the Auror team, the families behind three of them have very ambiguous attitudes towards Death Eaters. Only the Crouch family is firmly opposed to the Dark Lord. Therefore, Barty Jr. can basically be excluded. If there are still traitors, there is a high probability that they will only appear among the remaining three people. "

Sherlock had no interest in who the traitor was. What he really cared about was the Death Eaters or Voldemort, and what he wanted to get by letting people break into the Department of Mysteries.

What the current Voldemort can dream of is definitely not ordinary.

But he definitely doesn't have access to these things now, and everything has to wait until he joins the Ministry of Magic.

"There's one more thing I want to ask you for help." Eddie said, touching Amy's head.

Sherlock signaled him to speak up if he had anything to say.

"The situation in the wizarding world is getting more and more tense now. I work in the Auror office and basically can't leave the ministry for a long time. The Death Eaters have obviously discovered Amy's existence, and I can't continue to take her I'm left alone, so I want you to help me take care of Amy."

Sherlock hesitated and said: "Of course I am happy to help you with this. After all, I like Amy very much, but I will also have to work in the Department of Mysteries later on, so I can't take care of her during working hours, right?"

Eddie said: "If you are willing, I can apply to Mrs. Selwyn. There are very few staff in the Department of Mysteries, everyone has an independent office, and the work performed is all clerical, so let Amy follow you The words are just right.”

Since he could find a way to convince the Ministry of Magic to let Sherlock take his family to work, Sherlock had no intention of refusing.

Amy's intuition is very powerful, and she might be able to help by following her in the Department of Mysteries.

"If that's the case, of course."

That night after dinner, Eddie left alone.

Amy will continue to live with Sherlock. After Eddie has made arrangements with the Ministry of Magic tomorrow, he will come to the Leaky Cauldron again and take Sherlock to go through the employment procedures.

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, Sherlock informed Snape and let him know that starting from today, he would enter the Ministry of Magic. Eddie arrived as scheduled at around ten o'clock in the morning.

"I have already told Mrs. Selwyn that if anyone asks about Amy's identity, you should tell the truth that she is a friend's child and will be taken care of on your behalf."

Although it has been agreed, today is the first day of employment after all, so Sherlock naturally cannot take Amy with him.

After leaving Amy under Snape's care for a day, Sherlock and Eddie went to the Ministry of Magic together.

The way they entered the Ministry of Magic was the same as when Sherlock took Harry to the Ministry of Magic, through the visitor's passage.

More than ten years later, the Ministry of Magic has not changed much compared to today.

It's just that the staff members seem to be busier, and there is not much relaxed look on everyone's face. Considering the current situation, it is understandable that such a situation occurs.
