During the holiday, Hogwarts College looked very deserted. There were no students running around, and no noisy people.
The huge castle gives people a feeling of emptiness and seclusion.
Ke Wen came all the way to the principal's office, and Dumbledore was already waiting inside, after all, he had contacted him in advance.
"Good morning, Mr. Principal."
After entering the room, Ke Wen greeted him politely.
Seeing this, Dumbledore smiled and nodded in response: "You too, little Kewen."
After finishing speaking, Dumbledore took a special look at Kewen's whole body, and seeing the high-end boutique clothing all over his body, he couldn't help but continued to laugh: "The Weasley family wrote me about you, it's unbelievable , you actually brought your friends to earn so many Galleons."
"I just expected to make a lot of money at the beginning." Ke Wen responded with a bit of "Versailles": "But I didn't expect to make so much money in the end. Everyone evenly got five million Galleons."
"Sharing is a virtue, but try to exercise restraint and maintain a good attitude." Dumbledore reminded slightly with a very satisfied expression.
"I will." Ke Wen replied without any resistance. After all, he lived a wealthy life before time travel, so he didn't have the heart of a nouveau riche, and he didn't value money so much.
Not intending to continue this topic, Dumbledore said instead: "Then, let's decide on the 'Secretary'."
With that said, Dumbledore took out a scroll from the drawer, and then let go of his hand, causing the scroll to float in front of Cowen automatically.
After Cowen took the scroll, Dumbledore said, "The above are the personal contracts of all the house-elves in the college. You choose one of them."
"Okay, Mr. Principal." Ke Wen didn't open the scroll, but said directly: "Actually, I already have a candidate, it's..."
"Okay!" Dumbledore suddenly interrupted, and then said kindly: "You don't need to tell me or anyone else who you chose, the identity of the 'Secret Keeper', the less people know, the better."
When Ke Wen heard this, he nodded in response.
Next, under the guidance of Dumbledore, Kewen entered the lounge next to him alone to choose the house elf.
Just like what Kewen said just now, he already had a candidate in his heart, the elf named Lili.
Every time he goes to the kitchen, Lili will serve him meticulously, and Lili is also one of the elves with the most powerful magic power among all the elves.
According to the method Dumbledore told, Ke Wen opened the scroll, tapped Lili's name with his wand, and silently recited the contract spell.
The next moment, the house elf Lili suddenly appeared in front of Kewen with a dazed look on her face.
However, after seeing Kewen, Lili immediately became overjoyed, and immediately asked: "Mr. Quinn! What do you need to do for you to summon Lili?"
"Is such that."
Immediately, Ke Wen told the other party about the transfer of the contract and the secret keeper.
After listening to this, Lili was so moved that her tears kept falling from her eyes, and she cried and cheered: "Great! Lili has a master! The master trusts Lili so much! Lili is so lucky to be the master's secret." people!"
The little elf Lili was crying and rejoicing, while constantly clenching her fists and knocking on her forehead, as if to verify whether she was dreaming.
Seeing this, Ke Wen quickly stopped Lili's self-harm behavior: "Stop Lili! Listen to me!"
"Yes! Master, you can tell Lili anything!"
Seeing that the other party had fully carried out his order and stopped self-harm, Ke Wen continued, "I have something to say in advance."
Lili immediately put on an air of dedication, and solemnly nodded: "Master, please tell me!"
"That's right, you elves have a custom that you can't accept gifts from your master, right?"
"Yes Master!"
"But I need to prepare some clothes for you in advance." Ke Wen said: "I like clean and hygienic servants, so I need to stipulate what you will wear in the future. If this is the case, is it considered to be a termination of the contract between us?"
"No, no, no, master!" Lili shook her head violently, and said eagerly, "As long as you don't give me gifts for no reason, master, it doesn't mean that the contract is terminated!"
"Very good," Ke Wen nodded in satisfaction.
Next, Ke Wen asked Lili for the size of the clothes, and planned to go to the clothing store in Diagon Alley to order a batch of clothes.
Then, Ke Wen exhorted: "There is one more thing."
"Master, please order!" Lili couldn't wait to do something for Kewen, the master, so she looked hopeful.
"During my school days, I need you to still work in the academy and wear your current clothes." In order to confuse possible investigations, Kewen arranged for Lili: "You just need to go home every other week to clean up. The sanitation of the house is good, and I will come back home to live with me during the holidays in the future."
"Yes! Lili listens to the master!"
"Also, don't behave abnormally when you are working in the academy." Ke Wen continued to warn: "To prevent other elves from seeing something, you have to keep your previous work status, can you do it?"
Lili nodded immediately after hearing the words: "It can be done! Lili promises to do it!"
"Very good, then go back to the kitchen and wait for my call." Ke Wen smiled and stretched out his hand, gently touching Lili's little head.
Lili had a pet-like expression of enjoyment, curled up her neck, closed her eyes and smiled.
After Ke Wen withdrew her hand, Lili looked reluctant, and under Ke Wen's urging, she disappeared in an instant and went back to the kitchen.
Cowen walked out of the lounge and returned the contract scroll to Dumbledore.
"Has everything been arranged?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yes, Mr. Principal." Cowen responded: "Then I'll go back first, and I'm going to add a 'Secrecy Charm' to the house."
"Okay." Dumbledore smiled cordially: "See you at the beginning of school, and write to me if you have any difficulties."
"Thank you, Mr. Principal, then goodbye."
In response to Dumbledore's response, Cowen left the office, walked all the way out of the college, and got into the carriage to return home.
After more than ten minutes, Ke Wen got off at the door of the 'Wonderful House', turned the carriage back into stone, and then called out: "Lili!"
Whoosh!
A slight sound of breaking through the air sounded, and under the influence of Qi Yue, the elf Lili appeared in front of Ke Wen again in an instant.
"Master! Lili is waiting for your order!"
Ke Wen raised his hand and pointed at the 'Wonderful House': "Go, cast the 'Charm of Loyalty' on the house, including the entire courtyard."
"Follow your orders!"
Lili bowed very seriously in response, straightened up and asked respectfully: "Master, please give Lili a magic wand to use."
Corvin took out his wand and handed it over.
Lili respectfully took the wand with both hands, then turned around solemnly, facing the courtyard...
