The little wizard followed Mag through the castle corridor and all the way to the hall. There were already many people sitting on the four long dining tables. The professors at the professor's table were whispering to each other. The sky-like top of the hall attracted the attention of the little wizard. They were pleasantly surprised.
Hope looked at the old man with a white beard sitting in the middle of the classroom table. He must be the strongest white devil, Albus Dumbledore.
On the edge of the hall, a stage was set up. On the stage was a chair. On the chair was a dirty wizard hat. After the freshmen all stood up, under the surprised eyes of the freshmen, the wizard hat began to sing. Started a song:
That was more than a thousand years ago,
I have just been woven into shape,
There are four famous wizards,
Their names survive to this day:
Brave Gryffindor, from the barren swamp,
Beautiful Ravenclaw, from the peaceful riverside,
Merciful Hufflepuff, from the open valley,
The shrewd Slytherin comes from that quagmire.
...
As for whether it sounds good or not, Hope finds it difficult to comment. I can only say that I wish him continued efforts...
At this time, Youlin's eyes were blurred. She finally realized that she had been deceived. Her gentle and kind mother had actually deceived her. She felt that when she worked hard to practice swimming, her mother's encouragement on the shore was laughing at her.
And that despicable sophomore, the big liar, which college is he from?
Cedric, who was sharing this interesting incident with his friends at the Hufflepuff table, felt a chill in his back. Although this incident made him a little guilty, he was really happy.
Yulin looked around and didn't see any despicable second-year students. Her mouth was bulging with anger. She and Hope were pitifully fooled around. Hope must be very angry too. Yulin turned to look at Hope. At this time, Hope's expression was as usual, neither sad nor happy, and not surprised at all.
A bad thought appeared in her mind: this new student also knew that she was the only one being fooled.
Suddenly Youlin was so angry and angry that she used her mother's trick to deal with her father, pinching him!
Hope, who was thinking about what it would be like to let the Sorting Hat sing as a rapper, suddenly felt a pain in her waist, and almost screamed with an "ouch". When she turned around, she saw Yulin, who was as angry as a little balloon and felt confused.
"Why are you pinching me?"
"fraud!"
"????"
What a disaster. The Sorting Hat finally finished singing on the stage. Professor McGonagall took over the stage and said in a serious and loud voice: "Quiet! First of all, welcome the new students to Hogwarts. There are four major houses in Hogwarts, namely Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin.”
"The sorting hat will accurately assign you to the college that suits you. From now on, the college will be your home. If you do not perform well, your college will lose points. If you perform well, your college will gain points. Everyone in the school will There are Quidditch competitions every semester, and the house that wins the Quidditch championship will receive a lot of credits, but only second-year students can participate in Quidditch."
"Now, the students whose names I called please come up to the stage and put on the sorting hat."
The names were arranged according to the first letter of the last name, so he had to wait a while.
Yulin was soon called up. She looked violent while wearing the Sorting Hat. Hope felt that she would break the hat.
"Slytherin!"
The long Slytherin table suddenly erupted in warm applause, which was much louder than the applause received by the previous people who were assigned to Slytherin.
Hope was a little surprised. Yulin looked carefree and was not afraid of fire dragons. Although she was a little scared when she saw the giant squid, she still thought about how to catch it. He thought she would be sorted into Gryffindor.
What makes Hope confused is, what is wrong with calling myself a liar? What did I lie to?
As the freshmen dwindled, it was finally Hope's turn.
Looking at the dirty hat in front of him, Hope felt like he was suffering from intermittent mysophobia, but under the urging of Professor McGonagall's eyes, he still put on the sorting hat.
"I feel like you are offending me. This is not dust, this is the sediment of history."
Hope subconsciously rubbed the brim of his hat, but there was indeed no strange black strip.
The Sorting Hat was unhappy: "There are many ways to insult the Hat. Why did you choose this cruelest way? I don't want to be like this. I was already like this when I was created. It's all Gryffin's fault." This guy doesn’t always cherish me..."
Upon hearing this gesture, Hope whispered: "I'm sorry, Mr. Sorting Hat, should we be sorted first?"
"Okay, okay, I always feel that this little guy has a sense of intimacy, but you don't need to say it, just think about it. I can feel it. The current conversation can't be heard, so let me see if you are suitable. where."
The Sorting Hat twisted. Then he said: "Do you like being unrestrained? It's a good idea. I followed Gryffindor back then, but I felt that Gryffindor was too reckless. He was obviously a wizard and always wanted to compete with others in swordsmanship. And He also gave me Indestructible, hoping that I would be able to withstand other hits like a helmet, I'm just a hat."
Mag next to him became impatient and coughed.
"Little Mag is angry. I talk too much when I meet you. Seeing as we are so close to each other, where do you want to go?"
Hope was stunned: "I can choose myself."
"Of course, I love to accept the little wizard's advice. But I suggest you go to Hufflepuff. I feel that you have the same aura as Hufflepuff."
Hope didn't refuse. He had no obsession with the academy and could go anywhere. Moreover, the kitchen was near Hufflepuff, so he could go and have a meal at any time.
"So, Hufflepuff."
The resounding voice of the Sorting Hat fell, and Hope walked towards the Hufflepuff table amid warm applause from Hufflepuff.
At this time, a certain white-haired girl on the Slytherin table had a deep misunderstanding of Hufflepuff. All simple and kind-hearted people were liars.
At the Hufflepuff long table, Cedric was the first to greet him: "Welcome to Hufflepuff." He apologized awkwardly: "Um, I'm sorry, I deceived you about the sorting ceremony."
Hope waved his hand: "Of course I know it's a lie. I'm not a fool. This is a school, not Azkaban."
Cedric's expression froze: "I saw that you and Yulin were discussing so enthusiastically that I thought I had deceived you. It turns out that you have seen through it a long time ago."
Hope shook her head and said, "No, no, no, Yulin really believes it."
Cedric: o_O???
After the sorting ceremony, Principal Dumbledore stood up and said: "First of all, welcome to all the new students. Allow me to introduce to you the professors here..."
We are all familiar with him, but I don't recognize the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher from Nianpao. Hope always feels like he doesn't seem like a good person.
After a round of applause, Dumbledore announced, "The dinner has begun."
A large amount of delicious food appeared on the table instantly. After dinner, under the guidance of Dumbledore, everyone sang the school song in their favorite tune, and then led by the prefect to the Hufflepuff lounge.
The door to the Hufflepuff lounge is a large round wooden barrel. The prefect demonstrated the magical Hufflepuff rhythm and opened the lid of the barrel. The kind-hearted prefect reminded the new students not to beat the wrong rhythm and die generously. This is a demonstration of the cost of making the wrong call.
Then the prefect became a jealous person. The prefect reminded that no matter whether you are holding an umbrella or wearing a raincoat, you can't stop the vinegar from pouring on you. Although he later used Cleansing to eliminate the vinegar, there was still a slight trace of it. The sour smell still came from him.
The effect was immediate, and the little wizards immediately memorized the Hufflepuff rhythms.
Hope frowned. He still wanted to make dumplings here in the future to get jealous, but it seemed that this was not possible.
Although Hufflepuff's lounge is on the negative floor, Hogwarts itself is built on uneven mountains, and the stars in the sky can be clearly seen through the windows.
There was a portrait of Ms. Hufflepuff on the fireplace in the common room. Maybe it was an illusion, but when Hope felt herself looking at her, she winked at him.
After the prefect gave a passionate speech, everyone was sent to bed. He had not finished his homework and had to copy it.
