time at hogwarts

Magos was the first one just now, and now he is the last one. In front of him is Harry. The little wizards walked into the luxurious restaurant one by one, and everyone's eyes were focused on them.The restaurant is also huge, but unlike the outside where you can't see the edge, although it is also huge, you can feel that you are indoors. Of course, that is if you don't look up.They were now walking in the middle of four extremely long tables, each of which was set with gleaming gold plates and goblets, and were almost filled with senior wizards on both sides.Looking up, there are thousands of candles floating in the air, which is the light source of the restaurant.Looking up further, what I saw was neither the ceiling nor the roof, but the sky.

"This is a magical effect. I read about it in "Hogwarts: A History of the School."" Hermione's voice came from the front.

Professor McGonagall led the freshmen to the front and stopped in front of the teacher's long table. There was a stool between the table and them. On the stool was a patched, old and dirty tall pointed hat.

When all the freshmen stood up, the whole restaurant was silent, and everyone's eyes turned to the hats.The hat began to twist, and a wide crack opened in the brim, like a mouth—it sang the school song.

……

……

Because I am a thinking magic hat!

The hat, no, it was the magic hat. After the magic hat finished singing, the audience burst into applause. The magic hat bowed to the four dining tables one by one, and then stood still.

Then Professor McGonagall took a few steps forward, a roll of parchment in hand.

"Whoever's name I call now will put on his hat, sit on the stool, and wait for the sorting." She said, "Hannah Abbott!" The order is just like the original novel, and all the freshmen who are assigned to whichever college will greet them. Come to that academy for enthusiastic applause.Time passed slowly, some people separated quickly and others very slowly. Harry, who was standing in front of Magos, looked very nervous. He kept looking at Hagrid on the teacher's seat.

"Relax Harry, you're so nervous."

"Thanks, Magos, but I can't do it. I feel like my legs are stiff." Harry's voice was raw.

"Just go to school as usual. Okay, I've called you. Go quickly."

"Harry Potter!"

Magos saw everyone looking at him and thought to himself that he was indeed a celebrity.Everyone was still watching him after he was sorted into Gryffindor.

"Magos Will!" Snape on the teacher's bench withdrew his gaze from Harry and looked at him, and Dumbledore also turned his gaze to him.

When it was his turn, he took a deep breath and walked up to sit down. Professor McGonagall placed the magic hat on his head, and the brim blocked his sight.At this time a voice sounded in his ear.

"You are smart, you can go to Ravenclaw, you have courage, you can go to Gryffindor, you are very curious and have integrity, Hufflepuff is also very suitable for you, you also have strong ambitions , you can also enter Slytherin. Well, let me see your heart. Oh, you prefer Gryffindor in your heart, but you are also very curious about the other three houses. It’s difficult to handle. It’s difficult to handle. You Which college do you want to go to?"

"Me? Can you communicate with me?" Magos responded gently.

"Yes, I am communicating with you. Where do you want to go?"

"Whatever, you can do whatever you want."

"You are suitable for all four academies and can go to them all, but you still have to choose one of them."

"Aren't you going to help me choose?" Magos asked curiously.

"When you satisfy two or more academies at the same time, your will is the most important. I am just suggesting."

"What should I do? Can I just choose one?"

"You can't do it casually. You must be inclined to him in your heart."

"It's really hard to choose. Can you tell me some very famous people who have come out of the four colleges?"

"Of course, Hufflepuff has been there..."

The senior students in the cafeteria had been paying attention to Harry since he was sorted into Gryffindor and were waiting for the table to be opened. But the longer they waited, the more something was wrong. Why hadn't the table been opened yet?They looked at the teacher's chair. It turned out that there was a new student there who had not been assigned to a good house. Because their attention was on Harry before, they did not pay attention to Professor McGonagall's shouting. They didn't know who he was, so they whispered to each other and asked about the final result. A new name.

McGoss Will.

They thought carefully about this familiar name, and suddenly they had a flash of inspiration. It was not the little wizard who was boasted by the Daily Prophet last year and could go to heaven.Darling, it turns out he is coming to school this year.Now the senior wizard was somewhat interested in him, but more of it was dissatisfaction, or disdain.In this way, they waited and waited until they were so hungry that they could no longer feel it. However, his sorting was not over yet. A group of people looked at the principal Dumbledore dumbfounded.

In fact, Principal Dumbledore had long used magic to sense what Magos was talking to the Magic Hat. They actually started to communicate again after exchanging famous wizards from each academy. What does it mean - boring! !

In fact, this is what happened. After the Sorting Hat introduced it, Magos asked it curiously,

"Isn't it boring that you are here every year to help us with the sorting?"

"What is boredom?" the Sorting Hat answered.

"Forehead,

Let me think.By the way, boredom is doing the same thing over and over again, right, that's it. McGoss applauded his wit.

"I sense that you are a little narcissistic and that I am bored. Why do you think I am boring?"

"But why don't you get bored doing the same thing over and over again?"

"Will it be boring if you keep doing the same thing? This is the first time someone said this to me."

...............

In this way, they kept discussing this topic.Although Dumbledore had long said that he would be extraordinary, this extraordinaryness gave him a headache. Now all the students and teachers in the school were staring at him. He seemed to feel some kind of resentment, and their eyes seemed to be focused. Two words - so hungry.They were all hungry and their chests were pressed against their backs. He glanced again at the energetic Magos who was communicating with the magic hat. It seemed that they would not stop in a short time. He stood up and waved his hand, and the magic hat came from Magos. Si's head flew into his hand.

"Gryffindor!" Dumbledore shouted.

Everyone applauded and cheered. The difference was that this time it was the four colleges and teachers who applauded together.

Before Magos, who was interrupted by the conversation and confused by the sudden applause, came to his senses, Dumbledore then said loudly, "Welcome to Hogwarts to start the new school year! Before the banquet begins, I I wanted to say a few words, but it seems like you don’t want to hear it anymore. Okay, let’s start the banquet. Thank you everyone! Magos, please return to the Gryffindor table.”

Just like that, Magos stood up and glanced at Dumbledore in confusion, and then looked at the magic hat next to him. Dumbledore put the magic hat away without leaving a trace with a twitch in his mouth. He felt that if they let them do this again If we keep talking, maybe the Magic Hat will go on strike next year.

Seeing the magic hat being put away, Magos sighed in disappointment. He was originally going to talk to it about the hat's appearance, but now there is no chance. He doesn't know if he can still talk to it if he wears the hat after the sorting. After communicating, Magos planned to ask Dumbledore one day if he could let the magic hat talk to him again.Little did he know that the principal had decided not to give him another chance to get close to the magic hat.

When he walked to the Gryffindor table, the people at the table were eating wildly. He walked to Hermione and sat down and saw that she was also moving her knife and fork quickly, so he couldn't help but say "slow down."She slowed down, but not only did she slow down, but the people around her also slowed down. Everyone looked at him with a very strange look. He felt that he was very bold and was frightened by the look. " Um, hello, are you okay?"

They all suddenly grinned, and a senior wizard put his arm around his shoulders and said, "I dare say you must have broken the record of the longest Sorting Hat, and it is likely that no one will be able to surpass it." His words As soon as it fell, the old fritters around applauded, as if this was some great collective honor.

"Okay, let's eat quickly. It's already too late today, otherwise I'm afraid I won't have anything to eat later. This is the first time I've had a school banquet that took so long to eat after five years of schooling." The senior wizard with the shining silver letter P came over. "I'm Percy, the prefect of Gryffindor and Ron's brother. I just heard him talking about you."

"Sorry for keeping you hungry for so long." Magos said a little embarrassed.

"What are you talking about? It's too late for us to be happy. You have obtained a record for us that may be permanent." After saying that, he hugged him hard.

Magos now doesn't understand the circuits in these wizards' heads, and feels that they are all strange.But he didn't care what to think, so he had to eat quickly. He already felt a little hungry.

"Why did it take you so long?" Hermione asked lightly after eating.

"I'm talking to it," McGoss said between bites of steak.

"Chat? It can still chat with people?" Hermione was extremely surprised. Looking at her expression, she wished she could go back to the time when she was just sorted.

"To be honest, I didn't know at first."

After taking the last sip of his drink, Dumbledore stood up.

"Now that everyone has eaten and drank enough, I want to say a few more words to you. At the beginning of the semester, I want to put forward a few things to pay attention to."

"Attention first-year students, students are prohibited from entering the woods on campus. Some of our classmates from the old class should also remember this." Dumbledore glanced at the Weasley twins with his shining eyes.

"Also, Mr. Filch, the administrator, asked me to remind everyone not to do magic in the corridors between classes.

"The review of Quidditch players will be held in the second week of this semester. Anyone who is interested in participating in the college team please contact Mrs. Huo Qi. Finally, I must tell everyone that anyone who does not want to suffer an accident and die a painful death , please do not enter the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor. Okay, the banquet is over, everyone stands up and sings the school song." After saying that, he clapped his hands, and all the food left on the table disappeared.

The seniors stood up reluctantly. While the freshmen were curious about what the school song was, Dumbledore sang the first few lines. The freshmen hummed along with the senior wizards. The only feeling was - terrible! !

After the song, Percy stood up and shouted, "The new students of Gryffindor come to my place to assemble."

A group of young wizards stumbled up to Percy.

"Okay, everyone, follow me. I'll take you to the lounge." They followed Percy out of the dining room and up the marble stairs outside the door.He passed by the prefects of several other colleges, but one of the prefects gave him a sharp look when he walked next to Magos. Magos guessed from Malfoy who was following him that he should be Si. Lytlin's prefect.
