Sun Zhengxing pushed open the door of the office, and Sirius, who had crossed his legs, retracted his legs, with a dazzling smile on his face, which made Sun Zhengxing a little confused.
"Hey, guess..." Sirius patted the head of the owl by the table with a smug expression.
"Okay, I don't need to guess, is your godson writing to you again? What spell did he learn today? Sirius, I have to remind you that your godson is not yet 11 years old, although in your description Here, he's very gifted, but I suggest you don't let him practice these in places where Muggles gather."
Sirius touched his nose and coughed: "Oh, I don't let him do this anymore, anyway, he will be admitted to Hogwarts next year, right? There is no need to worry about this kind of thing...he just gives me It’s just sharing interesting things about his growing up, such as his cousin who used to bully him was criticized by his teacher.”
"Okay." Sun Zhengxing casually put the letter he just received into the drawer beside the table, "Is it worth grinning behind your ears for such a small matter?"
"Oh, the work here is so boring, I have to find some fun for myself. By the way, what are you looking for?"
Sun Zhengxing took out one thing after another from a pile of thick documents, without raising his head: "If you feel bored, just come and help me. My daughter wrote to me and asked for some Quidditch team members." around, some posters or commemorative badges, it would be even better if you can see autographed photos.”
Sirius also flipped over together: "Oh, did Zhu ask you for it? I heard that she joined their academy team. She is really good. Which team does she want?"
"The Tuthill Tornado Team. Feel free to do anything else, just give as you see. That's what she said in the original words. My family, A Zhu, is really not polite to me."
"Hiss." Sirius made a toothache look, "Zhu actually likes this team, I've never heard of it. Oh, I found it, here is a signed poster of the goalkeeper of the Tornado team."
Sun Zhengxing opened it and looked at it, then rolled it up silently and put it on the table.
He originally wanted to say that he hadn't heard his daughter mention this before, but wouldn't this make him look like an outsider like Blake?
"Which team does she like, how can she tell you?"
"Don't say that, I have a very good relationship with Zhu. By the way, did someone sue you last time, saying that she contradicted the teacher at school?" Sirius frowned, "Your daughter is well behaved, can you There must be something strange about doing this. That Bulstrode has always looked down on non-pure blood wizards, the problem must be him."
"I understand, Ah Zhu explained it to me." Sun Zhengxing took out a few more signature boards and put them together with the poster just now, "I believe she has her own ideas, and she is not a child who likes to mess around."
"How can there be so many team souvenirs piled up here in the Sports Department." Sirius clapped his hands, picked up one of the Golden Snitch pendants and said casually: "I've seen a similar one at my godson's. I asked Who sent it, he said, from a kind wizard grandma."
"Well, they will make a lot of peripherals for large and small competitions. It is said that some of them refer to the designs of Muggles, and some are even produced by Muggle foundries." Sun Zhengxing explained casually: "At this time, they need to send samples to The Ministry of Magic checks, part of it is on our side, and part of it is on Arthur's side."
"Arthur Weasley?"
"Yes, he's in the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office of the Department of Magical Law. In case these Quidditch memorabilia find their way into Muggles, the Misuse Office ensures that Muggles are safe and that they do not breach the Act of Wizarding Secrecy."
Sun Zhengxing looked at Sirius: "Speaking of which, you have been here for almost a month, have you done anything serious?"
"Let me think about it." Sirius propped his chin in a contemplative state: "It seems not, but I have recognized the team names and player information of more than 100 Quidditch teams, big and small. Bertha Jokin Ms. Si has worked for several years and has not remembered a few."
"Bertha doesn't stay here often, and sometimes goes to the Department of Magic Cooperation. Besides, it's not necessary to remember these things." Sun Zhengxing checked all the things to be sent to Sun Zhu, and confirmed that there were no prank spells left. Only then can I rest assured.
"I heard from Ms. Jorkins that Director Burns asked you a few days ago if you wanted to work in the Department of Magical Law. You refused. Why?" Sirius suddenly said, "I think you are more suitable there. Talent should not be wasted in this unimportant department."
"No department is unimportant, Sirius. When the Quidditch World Cup is held in a few years' time, you'll see how important the Sports Division is."
"But you don't seem to like it..."
"It doesn't matter if you like it or not." Sun Zhengxing picked up a pen and began to write a letter, "Do you know why I stay here?"
"I can not guess it."
"If I went to the Department of Magical Laws, I wouldn't have time to write to my daughter to find these things for her."
"Oh, that's really an important reason."
"And, if you can be a little more reliable, maybe I can rest assured to hand over more work to you, and then leave."
"Well, actually, I came here to..."
"No matter what it is for, it's not for work, I know." Sun Zhengxing folded up the written letter and handed it to an owl together with the packed package.
"Haha, Zhengxing, you know me too well. Now I feel that when my son enters school next year, he will definitely become a good friend with your daughter."
"Is your godson going to Hufflepuff?"
"No, of course he's going to Gryffindor."
"Maybe he's going to Slytherin."
"No, absolutely impossible." Sirius frowned with some disgust.
"If you have been a professor at Hogwarts, you should know that most of the students are ordinary children. Their character is not bad, and they will not appear to be inferior to others just because they went to Slytherin. Besides, It’s a good thing to be ambitious, of course.”
"I..." he breathed out, "well, I'll respect Harry's idea, if he really wants to go to Slytherin himself."
Sun Zhengxing smiled but said nothing.
A moment later, Sun Yuanbao rushed into the office as if fleeing, followed by two female wizards from the Department of Magical Creatures.
"What happened? Did my cat cause you trouble?" Sun Zhengxing got up subconsciously.
"Oh, it's nothing, Mr. Sun, your cat is fine. It's just that when she just passed by, she attracted the attention of a few pureblood cats and lizi who came to apply for a permit... so we will send her to you first .”
"Attention? What attention?" Sirius suddenly smiled, and the two female wizards looked away embarrassedly at the same time.
"It's just... those tomcats, Lizi, have entered the blooming period..." One of them opened his mouth in embarrassment.
Sun Zhengxing's face darkened: "My Yuanbao is still young!"
"But those male cats shouldn't be too young." Sirius touched his chin, fearing that the world would not be chaotic. "And your cat Lizi is almost two years old, and he is not too young."
Sun Zhengxing stroked Sun Yuanbao's head, wondering whether it would be best to keep her at home tomorrow.
But Maolizi needs enough exercise. If she is kept at home, she will inevitably run around.The owl Jade likes to close his eyes and rest, and is often disturbed by her noise.
...difficult.
"That's right." Sirius said again: "I was thinking just now, maybe one of Zhu's classmates likes the Tuthill Tornado team, otherwise why would she call names."
"I regret."
After the two female wizards left, Sun Zhengxing said suddenly.
"What?" Sirius gave him an inexplicable look.
"I should have gone to the Department of Magical Laws. It might really be a mistake to stay in the same office as you." He opened the door and walked out.
"No way, where are you going?"
"Go to the Department of Magical Creatures and find someone." Sun Zhengxing paused every word, "Siris Black, you'd better sleep tonight with both eyes on duty."
"Hey, guess..." Sirius patted the head of the owl by the table with a smug expression.
"Okay, I don't need to guess, is your godson writing to you again? What spell did he learn today? Sirius, I have to remind you that your godson is not yet 11 years old, although in your description Here, he's very gifted, but I suggest you don't let him practice these in places where Muggles gather."
