Part-time as God of the Heavens

Lichen Bookstore, a bookstore on the north side of Diagon Alley, is so popular that almost all Hogwarts students come here to pick up the textbooks they need.

Zhou Yi came here mainly to select some books to use as teaching materials for the students who are about to teach.

If he wanted some materials himself, the Hogwarts library was obviously the best choice.

As for whether he will be selected to be a professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts course?

Zhou Yi is not worried about this.

Under the circumstance of knowing that being a professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts will be cursed, there are not many people who will accept the job, and those who accept it are basically people with other purposes.

Under such circumstances, if Dumbledore would find other wizards... Then Zhou Yi can only say that there is something wrong with Dumbledore's vision.

Obviously, there was nothing wrong with Dumbledore's vision.

It is not for nothing that Lishen Bookstore was chosen as the place to buy textbooks at Hogwarts. It has a spacious storefront and a variety of books are neatly placed. When you walk in, at first glance, it seems that you have come to a small library. .

There were a lot of people, and the salesperson was a little too busy. Zhou Yi saw a book and stretched out his hand.

The cover of the book is a huge bee, and the title of the book is—

"Zizi Bee Candy!"

After the huge stone beast heard the password, it moved aside to reveal the automatic spiral staircase behind it.

A tall, serious woman with a pair of square glasses walked to the top of the stairs, pushed open the door, and walked in: "Albus, what's the matter with you asking Fox to come to me in such a hurry?"

"That's it, Minerva, I have found an excellent wizard who is willing to come to Hogwarts to teach Defence Against the Dark Arts." Dumbledore put the quill aside and looked at Professor McGonagall in front of him. , "Please take a seat."

"I remember that we have already recruited a Defence Against the Dark Arts course professor this year, Professor Quirrell," McGonagall was stunned, sat down and said, "Is there something wrong with him?"

"No no, there is nothing wrong with Professor Quirrell, but under the wizard's words, I think it is necessary for us to recruit another Defence Against the Dark Arts professor." Dumbledore explained, and then told Zhou Yi to him. The reason was told to Professor McGonagall.

"What he said makes sense..." Professor McGonagall thought for a while and said after listening, "Which excellent wizard is he?"

"I don't think you have seen him before, he is a very young wizard from China," Dumbledore handed a few pieces of letter paper to Professor McGonagall, "this is his information, I just asked me friends from the Ministry of Magic's database."

"...He's still a staff maker?" Professor McGonagall exclaimed when he saw the back, "So young?"

"Not only that, he also has extremely good strength," Dumbledore said, squinting his eyes and smiling, "To be honest, he makes me feel very good, I have an inexplicable hunch that he can break through that shroud. The curse of the professorship."

"Since you said so, Albus," Professor McGonagall read all the materials, "what can I object to?"

"I'm glad we've reached an agreement again, Minerva," Dumbledore handed Professor McGonagall the stationery and quill he had just written, as well as a plate of slowly sizzling bees, "I want some. ?"

"I still want to keep my teeth naturally," Professor McGonagall shook his head and refused, took the stationery and quill, and glanced roughly, "Send it to the Ministry of Magic so soon?"

"In another month, the school will start. It will take time to arrange the class schedule, select the teaching year, and textbooks." Dumbledore picked up a piece of zizi bee candy, threw it into his mouth, and squinted with satisfaction. Squinting, "We have to give our new professor enough time to prepare."

"Except for the factors such as the strength you mentioned," Professor McGonagall signed and handed the letter of advice and the quill back to Dumbledore, "If this wizard can really serve, then, even if it is only by relying on Face, he's going to get a bunch of compliments...he's definitely the most handsome Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher ever."

"Hahaha!" Dumbledore laughed, took the letter and the quill, put the quill aside, and began to put the letter in the envelope, "I don't think you would say that to him in person."

"Of course not!" Professor McGonagall said righteously.

"Anyway, I'm looking forward to this new professor." Dumbledore sealed the envelope, beckoned, let Fox fly over, and then handed the letter to Fox.

Fox grabbed the envelope with his claws, flapped his wings, and turned to leave, leaving behind a bright spark and a bright phoenix call.

"Cuckoo~"

"Well..." Zhou Yi stared at the owl in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Zhou Yi from Lihen Bookstore had already been there. After reading some books, he decided that the textbook for grades 1 to 4 should still be the "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide". If he needed to teach other grades, he would choose other textbooks.

No way, for Zhou Yi, who has been educated in China for 16 years, seeing these textbooks... Except for the self-defense guide that systematically summarizes some things, the rest are no different from storybooks.

Some of the knowledge in these books, such as the means to deal with magical creatures, etc. may be genuine, but it is clear that their authors have not systematically learned how to edit a textbook... It is equivalent to a physics professor putting himself The experimental process is put into the book, and there are dry goods, but it is not obvious.

"It's okay, I'll just summarize it!" Zhou Yi thought to himself, "Give those students a brand new Hogwarts experience!"

While thinking about it, Zhou Yi stared at the owl in front of him.

There are many calls of owls, with different types and different calls, some sound like snakes, some sound like laughter... But Zhou Yi was the first to hear such a sound like the one in front of him.

"Cuckoo, cuckoo~" The snow-white owl tilted its head to look at Zhou Yi, made a dove call of "I can't say it looks like it, it's just the same", and then turned its head with a swish.

Twisted one hundred and eighty degrees.

"Tsk tsk..." Zhou Yi tutted twice.

If it weren't for the appearance and the high angle of turning his head to prove the owl, Zhou Yi would have thought it was a pigeon bought by the store to make up for it.

"Sir, have you made your decision yet?" The clerk on the side asked Zhou Yi, who had stopped by the owl for so long, "This is just a rare pure white snowy owl, and it has a very well-behaved personality! It is also the largest in the world. One of the owls!"

"Okay, that's it." Zhou Yi nodded, "How much?"

"Ten Galleons, sir!"

Zhou Yi took out ten gold Galleons and handed them over, and soon carried a cage and walked out of the somewhat dark Ira Owl Store.

"I feel that this cage is a little too small for you." Zhou Yi raised the cage in front of him and talked to the huddled snowy owl inside.

"Cuckoo!" Snow Owl's eyes lit up and nodded again and again.

"It's very simple..." Zhou Yi tapped his finger, and the birdcage automatically stretched and expanded according to the original proportion, and stopped when it doubled.

"Cuckoo~" The snowy owl looked left and right in surprise, stretched its wings, and was obviously very satisfied.

"By the way, since you are my pet in the future, do I have to give you a name?" Zhou Yi thought thoughtfully.

"Cuckoo." Snow Owl nodded.

"How is Dabai?"

"Cuckoo!" The snowy owl's eyes are erect, its wings are stretched straight back, and its mouth is closed.

"Okay, obviously not," Zhou Yi was just joking, and waved his hand, "Then... Xiaobai!"

"Goo!"

"Ah... I'm named a waste..." Zhou Yi continued to ponder, and after a while, "Mu Qiu, how is it?"

"Cuckoo?"

"It means that late autumn is approaching and severe winter is coming," Zhou Yi explained, "it matches your appearance very well."

"Cuckoo~" Mu Qiu opened her mouth, her eyes became round, her whole body relaxed, and the afterglow of the setting sun poured down on its snow-white body, making it extraordinarily... cute (see the Easter Egg chapter).

"Then you'll be called Mu Qiu in the future." Zhou Yi nodded, following the local customs does not include naming. If it is called according to foreign names, it will be the same name as some people's names. Zhou Yi thinks that the name, in case it has the same name as someone, Isn't it embarrassing?

Zhou Yi took Mu Qiu all the way to the Broken Cauldron Bar.

The owner of the bar is Old Tom. Although there is nothing too bright in the original work, the fact that he ignites the fireplace without a stick can already show that this is a hidden boss.

Casting without a stick, in this world, is a very rare ability, a skill that only people with very high magical attainments can master.

Moreover, aside from this, what kind of simple role can the boss who controls the entrance and exit of such an important place as Diagon Alley be?

Of course, this has nothing to do with Zhou Yi.

"New customer!" Old Tom cheerfully looked at Zhou Yi who came to the bar, "Do you need anything? Try the new butter beer? I promise, the butter beer here is better than the one in Hogsmeade. Even better!"

"I need to live here for a period of time, about a month or so," Zhou Yi smiled, "I'll have another cup of butter beer by the way."

"I hope you're satisfied!" Old Tom opened the cabinet beside him, took out a brass key, and handed it to Zhou Yi, "It's for you, a total of gold Galleons!"

"Old Tom, this can't be done! Um... so handsome, don't you want the old cow to eat the tender grass!" On the side, a drunken man heard it, looked at it twice, and coaxed.

"Hahaha..." A few drunks on the side also laughed.

"Oh... don't mind, drunkards don't have good brains, and it's no good to hold them accountable," Old Tom quickly persuaded Zhou Yi when he saw Zhou Yi turned around and looked around. I'm complimenting you!"

"I have enough confidence in me, and I don't need others to brag about it, let alone this form..." Zhou Yi shrugged, "Small punishment, big admonition, okay?"

"Of course...as long as it doesn't kill anyone," Old Tom whispered.

"I'm not some crazy person." Zhou Yi shook his head and pointed to the drunkards.

"Boom!"

The heads of a few drunks slammed into the table at the same time as if they were being held down by something, making a loud and neat sound, and then completely fainted without any other reaction, and collapsed to the ground.

The originally lively bar suddenly became silent. The movement here was seen by many people, but no one came forward to control it, but... Who would have thought that in one round, these drunkards would be directly "destroyed by the group" "?

Moreover, it is still cast without a staff!

Still so young, a handsome wizard displayed it!

"Everyone saw it, they provoked first," Zhou Yi looked around in the silent bar and said with a gentle smile, "Introduce myself, I'm Zhou Yi, a staff maker from China, very happy Seeing everyone... Although there was some unpleasantness, I'm actually a good talker."

With that said, Zhou Yi took the butter beer handed over by Old Tom and drank it.

"It tastes good." Zhou Yi returned the cup to Old Tom, took out ten gold Galleons and handed them to Old Tom, "These are considered maintenance costs, are they enough?"

"There are more than one gold Galleon!" Old Tom only took one away.

"The rest, please everyone here to drink." Zhou Yi put the nine gold Galleons on the bar, "How do I get to the residence?"

"Just go up the stairs over there. Your room is No. 206, Mr. Zhou," old Tom said. "Also, the soundproofing of the bar may not be very good..."

"Oh, that's not a problem, I can arrange some soundproofing magic," Zhou Yi nodded, and then looked at the people around who were still silent, "I wish everyone a happy drink."

After all, Zhou Yi took Mu Qiu to the stairs beside him.

It wasn't until Zhou Yi disappeared from the field of vision, and after a while, there was a sound of the door opening and closing, and everyone began to talk in a low voice. Sentences such as '' are the most frequent.

"Dong dong!" Old Tom knocked on the bar twice, "Be careful, don't always think that you are similar to Merlin when you are drunk! Especially those who have special hobbies, don't always judge people by their appearance, these idiots this time. If you bump into it, I don’t know who it is next time! Just drink it honestly, and next time whoever dares to get drunk and cause trouble again, I will drive him out and never let him in!”

"Then...those gold Galleons..." An alcoholic raised his hand weakly, focusing on the few gold Galleons left by Zhou Yi.

Under the light of the flickering candles in the bar, the light reflected by the gold attracted all the spirits of the drunkard.

Old Tom laughed angrily.

"Drink it! It's better for you to drink to death!" Old Tom said fiercely, and the alcoholics didn't mind at all, cheering, and the bar returned to the hustle and bustle again.

The moment Zhou Yi entered the room, he released several magics—sound insulation, purification, defense, etc., to ensure that the place he needed to stay in the next period of time was "clean" enough, and he released Mu Xue and fed him some food.

"I hope Dumbledore can hurry up..." Zhou Yi thought.

Only after confirming that I have successfully become a professor at Hogwarts can I proceed with the next plan...
