HP: Let professors walk towards the light

Lucius looked at the person opposite him. He finally understood why Severus was so wary of this girl. Although he had never seen her strength that was not consistent with her age, what she said made him have to face up to this so-called transaction "concerning Malfoy's future."

"Who are you?" Lucius asked unkindly.

"Sir, you are so forgetful. Didn't you call me Talros?" Lena said without any fear.

"You know I didn't mean it that way."

“But I am.”

Reina smiled brightly, but to Lucius it was meaningful.

"continue."

"It seems that you have thought it through and are willing to trade with me?"

"Then we need to hear whether it is beneficial or not."

"Did You-Know-Who give you a journal? I need that thing."

"What? How do you know?" Lucius asked warily.

"This is something that cannot be disclosed. Don't worry, I'm the only one who knows about it."

"What do you want that for? What is that?"

"Horcrux - that's one of You-Know-Who's Horcruxes." Reina answered.

"Horcruxes? What are those? It sounds like you know more than one."

"Yes, that is equivalent to the soul fragment of the mysterious man. He can use this as a medium to revive, and there is indeed more than one."

"You know a lot." Lucius stared at Lena with inquiring eyes.

"Otherwise, how could I dare to trade with you?" Reina responded with a smile.

"I also know that the Ministry of Magic will confiscate Muggle items soon. Although the Malfoy family doesn't have any, you'll be in trouble if they find out that you have the Dark Lord's things. So I think it will be beneficial for you to hand it over to me. You give me the diary, and I'll help you get out of trouble easily. This is the first deal I proposed." She drank her tea calmly.

"That does sound tempting, so what about the second one?"

"Work with me, sir. I need you to be my assistant."

"Cooperation? I need to see your sincerity."

"certainly……"

Devon - The Burrow

A week ago, Harry was trapped in Privet Drive by his Uncle Vernon. With the help of brothers Fred, George and Ron, he was successfully rescued and came to this strange but extraordinarily warm place called the Burrow, where he will spend the rest of his vacation until school starts.

Today, Harry planned to climb up to the paddock to play Quidditch with the three Weasley brothers. As for Percy, he basically stayed in his room except for eating, and Harry seldom saw him come out.

After seeing off a few young men, Mrs. Weasley asked her husband who was still sitting at the dinner table: "Why haven't you gone to work today?"

"Oh, Molly, just let me take a day off today. I'm really tired lately." Mr. Weasley slumped in his chair.

"Rest? Look, five sets of Lockhart's books, little Ginny is going to school soon, and there's her wand, robes... so many things to buy, do you have the nerve to mention rest?" Mrs. Weasley put her hands on her hips and pointed at her husband.

"Just kidding. We have guests coming today and I want to talk to her about some business to make money," said Arthur.

"Her? You want to bring a woman to your home to discuss business? In front of me!"

"Oh, hey, Molly, put the knife down! It's a child! She's just a child!"

"Child? Who are you trying to fool? Which child can do business with you, Arthur? Even if you want to fool me, make up a suitable excuse! What on earth are you trying to do?"

"I'm telling the truth! Molly, calm down, I love you! Molly..."

At this moment, a person wearing a blue sun hat and a long skirt of the same color was standing at the door of the burrow, holding a suitcase in one hand and the other hand suspended in the air, not knowing whether to knock on the door.

Hearing the tinkling sounds coming from the room, Hermalena knew that she had to knock on the door to rescue Mr. Weasley.

"Boom boom boom——"

"Mr. Weasley, Mrs. Weasley, it's me, Tallos."

A girl's voice came from outside the door, filling my ears.

"Molly! Here we are, guests are coming." Arthur pointed at the door, "I'll go open the door, I'll go open the door."

"Squeak-"

"Good morning, nice to meet you, Mr. Weasley." Lena showed a lovely smile. Adults all like cute and sensible girls, not to mention Weasley, who has seven children at home.

"I'm glad to see you, too. Come in, come in." Weasley felt a father's kindness rising in his heart. "Molly, look, I told you, what a lovely child."

"Oh my God, come and sit down, kid. Arthur, you are so mean. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I gave all the cookies to Harry and the others a few days ago, and we don't have anything else to treat them." Molly took Reina's sun hat and put it on the coat rack, while blaming Arthur.

"It's okay, Mrs. Weasley. I heard that Harry was here too, so I brought some snacks. Harry and the others..." Reina opened the suitcase, took out an exquisite box from it and handed it to Molly.

"Oh, kid, thank you for your concern. Harry and the others just went out to play Quidditch. They may not be back until noon, so stay and have lunch. By the way, what's your name?"

"Hermarena Tallos, thank you for your hospitality, ma'am."

"Hermalena, what a strange name. How do you spell it?" Molly brought tea and opened Rena's snack box. Various small cakes, cookies and chocolates were inside. They looked very delicious. She took out a small portion and put it on the tea tray, and planned to save the rest for the children as dessert after lunch.

"It is the prefix Heimar plus layna, the goddess of fate Hermamene."

"What a sunny name! Can I call you Reina?"

"Of course, ma'am."

"Well, Arthur, you take good care of Lena, I'll go prepare lunch." Molly touched Lena's head, smiled at her, and walked into the kitchen.

"Reina, my wife has always loved children, that's just how she is." Arthur smiled cheerfully.

"I like Mrs. Weasley too. She's very kind, like my mother."

"Then let's talk about what you wrote." Arthur pulled up a chair and sat down.

"Of course. As I said, the Talros family hopes to expand their business in the Muggle world, so I need an intermediary who understands the Muggle world and is interested in Muggle items, and who can also contact the wizarding world. So I found the head of the Misuse of Muggle Objects Department at the Ministry of Magic - you."

"In fact, I can say that I am interested but I cannot say that I understand it. Besides, my wife doesn't seem to want me to touch those things. Not long ago, my children drove the Muggle car I modified to pick up Harry, and I got scolded for it."

"That's because what you did was too dangerous, otherwise Mrs. Weasley wouldn't be so worried."

"But you also know that I work for the Ministry of Magic. At least I still need this job now." Arthur looked embarrassed.

"Of course. I'm not asking you to quit your job right now. On the contrary, I still need your current position. I plan to introduce some practical Muggle items to the wizarding world for sale. I think this is the trend of the times, so I want to take the lead and maybe even lead the trend. It's just that I don't know much about the Muggle world, so I need such a consultant." Rena took a sip of tea. Although the Weasley family's finances were a little tight, Mrs. Weasley's tea-making skills were still pretty good, and the tea tasted pretty good.

"Consultant? I'm not sure I'm qualified for this." Mr. Weasley waved his hand quickly.

"I asked my assistant to draw up a contract. You can take a look at it first."

Lena took out a contract from her suitcase and handed it to Arthur.
